Re: The Name Game !!
I was named after the actress Jennifer Jones - who I'm sorry to say - I have no clue as to anything about her. The Beth was just something they liked.
My husband's middle name was after his grandfather - Wilfred.
My daughter - Elizabeth - I wanted a Biblical name, Anne - because my mother's middle name is Anne and my mil's name is Anna.
My son - Josiah - I wanted another Biblical name - and I loved this one - it had a real old timey feel. His middle name is Frederick - which was my father's name.
My kids are now called Lizz and Joe - go figure.
I'm glad I wasn't a boy as my father wanted the name Hiram and my mother would have put my middle name as Abner (after her father) - how awful is that. Then as my father got older - he said he wished he'd thought of this name earlier - I'd have been named Polly Esther - can you imagine.
I can't wait to see what my grandchildren will be named. My daughter has been thinking up names since she was in 7th grade - and to be quite honest they are pretty dreadful.
VTJen (who shortened it because I didn't particulary like my name and really didn't seem like a Jenny. My brother always called me Jeffiner - he really wanted me to be a boy).

"This isn't simply an assault against press freedom," he said. "It now poses an even graver danger to Venezuelan demonstrators who will now have fewer news outlets to tell the story of what's happening there to the rest of the world."
CNN reported Friday that Venezuela had revoked or denied press credentials to CNN journalists in the country, following the president's announcement that he would expel them if they didn't "rectify" coverage of the protests.
CNN did not have an official comment, but according to a source, it still has a pair or reporters in Venezuela. CNN en Español anchor Patricia Janiot left Venezuela Friday and is expected to come on CNN to talk about the expulsion.
The source also pointed out that Venezuelan government officials have leveled criticisms about CNN for years.

The 2009 edition of the Harrison County High School volleyball team lacks a proven setter, and that may be the only ingredient missing from a team that could advance deep into the coming post-season.
"Our outside hitters and middle hitters are every bit as good as the best hitting teams we have had at Harrison County," said Bill Faulkner, Fillies head coach since the inception of volleyball at HCHS. "Our only concern is how well we will be able to pass and set the ball… We lost some key players off last year's team that we really relied on."

For rough weather conditions, the hard shell jacket sounds like the right tool for the job, at least on paper. You'll find quickly, however, that your hard shell is hot and clammy. That's because it just isn't breathable enough for the kind of work you're doing on a bicycle. All that vapor (and you're making a lot of vapor) is trapped inside the jacket and suddenly you're wearing a steam room. The hard shell fabric also flaps around like crazy on any downhill and it just doesn't feel very soft and comfortable. This is where a softshell jacket like the Gore Bike Wear ALP-X 2.0 SO Zip-Off Jacket really shines. Softshell fabric is ultra-breathable and allows your body to regulate its temperature naturally without trapping heat and moisture against your skin. Gore's soft shell fabric is also stretchy so it's able to give the Alp-X a more athletic cut that not only makes layering easier, but doesn't flap around every time you bury the needle.The ALP-X 2.0 SO Zip-Off Jacket is constructed of WindStopper Soft Shell fabric. WindStopper Soft Shell is soft, stretchy, breathable, and body-contouring. It fits and breathes like a comfortable mid-layer, yet it offers a level of water and wind resistance that approaches the protection afforded by a hard-shell jacket. Gore Bike Wear gave the ALP-X its Slim Fit, which means that it contours the body closely to ensure aerodynamics and proper moisture management. Strategically placed stretch panels eliminate binding and add durability. Additionally, the elbows are pre-shaped so that there's no restrictive tugging when you reach for the handlebars. The jacket has a subtle drop tail for full coverage and to protect the seat of your pants from wheel spray. It also has a shaped collar to ensure neck comfort. The zipper is supplied with an underflap and garage to keep it tucked away nicely when the jacket is fully zipped. If you find yourself overheating during hard efforts, you can ventilate through two side zips.The Alp-X Jacket has removable sleeves so you can quickly turn it into a vest on warmer days or for layering purposes. There are two zip pockets on the back for security and one mesh pocket for your water or a snack. the single chest pocket holds your music, keys, or whatever you'd like to keep close at hand. A partially elastic gripper at the waist keeps the jacket from riding up. Fall rides often happen under low-light conditions, so Gore Bike Wear put a reflective logo on the front and back of the jacket, along with added reflective print on the sleeves and back. The Gore Bike Wear ALP-X 2.0 SO Zip-Off Jacket comes in sizes Small through XX-Large and in five color schemes: Black, Castle Grey/black, Navy Blue/black, White/black, and Red/black.

(CNN) — A 6.5-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Tonga on Saturday, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
The quake, which was six miles deep, hit 44 miles away from the capital of Nuku'alofa, according to the USGS.
There are no preliminary reports of damage or injury. No tsunami warning has been issued.
Tonga is an archipelago of 171 islands directly south of Western Samoa. Less than a third of the islands are inhabited.
It is the only remaining monarchy in the Pacific.
The Indo-Australian geologic plate goes above the Pacific plate there, making earthquakes fairly common occurrences in the area.

I have an UITextField that I want to enlarge it's width when tapped on. I set up the constraints and made sure the constraint on the left has the lower priority then the one that I am trying to animate on the right side.
Here is the code that I am trying to use.
// move the input box
UIView.animateWithDuration(10.5, animations: {
self.nameInputConstraint.constant = 8
}, completion: {

You need to first change the constraint and then animate the update.

The Aging Process – Curse or Cure?
Throughout the history of mankind the battle against aging has continued. In the dark ages, the signs of "old age" would start to show at around 30 years old. The average life expectancy at that time was about 45 years.
The poor hygiene, lack of knowledge about bacteria and various related diseases would snatch people from their mortal coil long before their 60th birthday. In modern times we have the luxury of understanding what keeps us alive for longer. The aging process is no longer a mystery and with that has come the hope of being able to stave it off a bit longer.
Nobody is under the impression that aging can be beaten. Although there have been certain cult-like movements in history who have believed that the aging process was merely psychological, and could somehow be avoided. Of course, one doesn't need modern science to understand that the aging process is as much a part of the human condition as birth, growth and maturity.
This doesn't make it an easier process and it certainly doesn't remove the stigma that comes with it. Many older people find themselves being patronised by younger folk. People tend to automatically think that they are slow and incapable of rational thought or complex decision making.
The reason for this is that there are a lot of older people who have fallen prey to illnesses such as altzheimers. Some simply start forgetting everyday things… There are many who believe that, apart from unavoidable illnesses, certain classic symptoms of the aging process can, at the very least, be put off.
Physical Aging:
The body is built to last for a certain period of time, but as with anything, the better you take care of it, the more you'll get out of it. Imagine a car engine that has been lovingly maintained and serviced on a regular basis, all of its life. These are the types of cars we see at historical car fairs in mint condition with engines buzzing even better than their modern counterparts.
Regular exercise, a good balanced diet and proper intellectual stimulation from a young age will make a massive difference. In fact, the lifestyle is beneficial no matter when you decide to start.
Mental Aging:
For those who do not continue to learn new things or at the very least, read regularly will find that as with everything mentioned before, what you don't use, you lose. Aging causes the body to deteriorate in parts that are not being used. If a person is not keeping regularly mentally active, there is a chance that the body will simply stop feeding those bits.
It is important to remember that although there are a lot of modern medicines that promise to fight the aging process, none of them will work as well as the right attitude. Continue to use new technology, read up on current events and stay fit. You cannot stop aging but you can certainly make sure that you enjoy the ride!

Norwood Co-operative Bank, Norwood, Massachusetts, has petitioned the Division of Banks (Division) and the Board of Bank Incorporation (Board) pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws chapters 167A and 167H, for permission to reorganize into a mutual holding company. This multi-step transaction will involve the creation of a new mutual co-operative bank, which will reorganize into a mutual holding company under the name 1889 Bancorp, MHC (MHC) with a subsidiary banking institution in stock form. The MHC will then form a subsidiary stock holding company, 1889 Financial Services Corporation (Holding Company). Thereupon, Norwood Co-operative Bank will merge with and into the newly formed stock co-operative bank and operate under the name Norwood Co-operative Bank. Applications addressing the several statutory requirements and seeking all related authorities have been filed with the Board and the Division.
In determining whether or not to approve these applications, the Board and the Division must decide, among other things, whether competition among banking institutions will be unreasonably affected and whether public convenience and advantage will be promoted by these proposals.

Three years into the Syria conflict, neighbouring countries continue to provide assistance to millions of Syrian refugees.

These plans, closely coordinated with humanitarian assistance plans, anticipate a multi-faceted response to assure immediate relief, strengthen individual and community resilience and rebuild essential development infrastructure.

Imbecile Americans Intimidated By Proper English, Says Toby Young
Professional annoying person Toby Young has an oh-so-self-serving theory as to why he is detested as a Top Chef judge: Americans cannot handle a person who speaks in complete, correct sentences.
After our own Joshua Stein said Young "knows little bordering on nothing about food" and called him "a self-serving whiny drunk pissant," and after many other critics railed against his Top Chef performance, Young fired back a reply in the Evening Standard:
Almost all the reviewers — and there were dozens of them — accused me of regurgitating lines I had written down beforehand, irrespective of whether they applied to the dishes or not. For instance, I said of one plate of food, in which the vegetables were much better cooked than the two meat components: 'It rather reminded me of one of those Hollywood films in which classically trained British actors have been cast in character roles. The two leads were upstaged by the supporting cast.'
Now, I can assure you that I came up with this on the spot — no great shakes, considering it isn't exactly Wildean in its wit. But one of the penalties of being a well-educated Brit in America is that people are constantly accusing you of having memorised lines for the simple reason that you talk in complete sentences and — completely unheard of, this — you don't make any grammatical mistakes.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is how you fail upward. Always whip your tragic embarrassment into a foamy controversy, smear it on top of your next slapdash cultural concoction and hope no one thinks too hard about what he is tasting.

How to Start an Outdoor Exercise Routine
How to Begin a New Outdoor Cardio Routine
Has the warm weather gotten you inspired to start a new outdoor cardio routine? Whether you've set your eyes on running, biking, or swimming, here are some things to remember before you begin.
Investing in a bike is exciting — once you find the perfect one for you, you'll be inspired to explore your town, take a long weekend bike ride, maybe even commute to work! But the process of finding the right bike and cycling routine takes a bit of thought. Start your cycling routine off right with these tips:
- Buy the right bike: Do you want a road bike for commuting, a mountain bike for weekend trail rides, or something in between? Knowing the main purpose of your bike is the first step in buying the right kind of bike. You also will need to spend a few hours testing different brands and sizes. Read more tips for buying the right bike here.
- Prevent pain and injuries: Even with the right size of bike, you need to ensure that you've adjusted your two-wheeler correctly so your rides won't lead to aches and pains. From saddle height to how to properly fit your helmet, here are tips on how to adjust your bike to fit your body.
- Plan your workout: If you're new to biking, make sure you plan and prep your route and workout. If you're biking to work, for example, read these tips for how to start a bike commute to work, and if you can't wait to hit the hills this weekend, read our beginner mountain biking tips.
Read on for more beginner outdoor cardio tips!
Whether you're starting a running program or forgoing your normal treadmill routine, stepping outside to run for the first time in a while can be a rude awakening for your body. There are many things out of your control when it comes to outdoor running, like windy weather and surprisingly hilly trails, so start off slow with these tips:
- Start transitioning: If you're normally a treadmill runner, use this plan to transition from indoor to outdoor running. Starting off slow helps develop your muscles and prevent injury, and battling wind and terrain will make you a better runner.
- Don't make these mistakes: You may have found a new cardio love, but don't make a habit out of neglecting these important issues. For example, make sure you're replacing your running shoes after a few months of a regular running routine, and never forget to stretch after your run!
- Words of advice: If you're new to running, sticking to a running routine can be hard, but if you persevere you'll be amazed at the benefits of running, like toned muscles, better endurance, and a newfound hobby, to name a few. Need some encouragement? Here are a few important beginner running tips we wished someone would've told us before we started running.
Sometimes, nothing beats the heat better than a workout in the pool. If it's been a while since you've swam laps, here are some tips for beginning a swimming workout routine:
- Beginner's plan: If you're not an experienced swimmer, taking lessons to get feedback on your form can be crucial. Once you've got your strokes down, try this swimming plan for beginners; it will help you work your way up to swimming a mile in no time!
- It's not just laps: Swimming laps can get boring. Instead, try these other ways to tone up in the pool to keep your workouts interesting and effective.
- Do intervals: Another way to burn calories fast in the water: intervals. Get in shape in no time, all while increasing your endurance, with this killer swimming cardio interval workout.

Thanks to the nice people at Hostmonster tech support (Christopher), without moving any of my files, I now have a new web address for the WordPress install, that is http://blog.murky.org/
What gave me a little confusion, soon overcome, was that even though my registrar is now hover, hostmonster can still manage the domain, that is because hover points at the old nameservers, which are hostmonster's. So, why the move? It's about separating out different roles – not having everything in one spot. If I ever want to break links with hostmonster, I can do this entirely from within hover by resetting the domain nameserver.
Anyhow, to create http://blog.murky.org/ I had to do was go to the subdomain management tools (which is on the top menu of hostmonster, not an icon on the main cpanel page) and make a subdomain which I directed to the directory containing WordPress.
As I type, this is also where www.murky.org is directed, I did it with an overlap so that mid-change I could still access the WordPress admin pages under one naming scheme or the other.
Creating the subdomain using the management tools also created the appropriate A name records too. I shouldn't have needed tech support really in hindsight, but messing with domains is one of those things that you do very rarely, and so each time you do it, it is as new. If I had to do this task again tomorrow, no problem…. but in a year? I hope the above text will be enough!
I wanted to fix old links – and that was done with a WordPress plugin called 'search regex' – a quick search in post content for links to my old domain, and replacing with the new… job done. I also went into WordPress settings to change the URL there.
The next step is to cause www.murky.org to go to a different host – that is a job for another day – and it's a slightly different task, so it's back to square one.
If I was starting from scratch, would I do it this way? Hell no, I'd have the subdomains all with the registrar.
