Sprinkler Service in Monument
Sprinkler irrigation systems differ, depending on the task and water delivery requirements. Regardless of the type of sprinklers you use, there are uncomplicated ways for ensuring that you get the proper amount of water where it needs to go. If you are searching for help with sprinkler, look no further than TJP Enterprises Inc.. Our team of experts has been installing, repairing, and maintaining sprinkler systems for decades in Monument and surrounding areas.
Maintenance Checklist for Sprinklers
Functioning irrigation systems are essential for maintaining healthy, well-maintained landscape and lawns. For instance, brown patches may be the result of a misaligned sprinkler or an incorrectly pressurized system, which can waste water and money. Your sprinklers will function properly with a sprinkler system maintenance program from TJP Enterprises Inc.. We'll start up, check, and winterize your system to ensure everything is working correctly. While automatic irrigation systems make watering your landscape and lawn an effortless task, periodic maintenance is necessary to keep sprinkler systems working as efficiently as possible. Also, proper shut down in the fall and start up in the spring is essential. The following are some highlights of our irrigation system maintenance services:
- • Shut all standard drains left open after sprinkler systems were drained the previous fall.
- • Open the main valve to allow water to fill the piping between the cross-connection assembly slowly to prevent backflow.
- • Pressurize the mainline between the control values and backflow prevention assembly. We open one of the control valves as the pipes fill with water to allow air to escape through the sprinkler heads that might be trapped in the piping.
- • Our state-certified backflow specialists test the cross-connection assembly. They are up-to-date on specific rules and regulations that must be met. One zone at a time, we test the performance of the entire sprinkler system by checking for the following:
- o Signs of leakage. In particular, our technicians search for sprinkler head or piping that may have been damaged during the winter months. We will repair and replace any part not functioning correctly.
- o Accurate spray patterns. We will adjust your sprinkler heads so they the spray patterns accurately water your lawn and landscape. Also, we ensure that plants or other materials are not blocking the spray of the sprinklers.
- • Our team of experts will thoroughly clean clogged sprinkler heads and nozzles.
- • If it appears that your landscape is receiving too much moisture, we can install a rain sensor. Their purpose is to turn water delivery systems off when rainfall reaches predetermined levels. The sensor reactivates the irrigation system when the moisture level recedes, resuming the previously defined watering schedule. Our technicians install rain sensors in unobstructed areas exposed to the open air to minimize the potential of debris or leaves from blocking the sensor.
Our sprinkler maintenance program helps eliminate wasteful overwatering and unsightly brown spots by performing a fall winterization service, conducting a mid-season evaluation, and starting up your sprinkler system in the spring.

Contest platform Baltie.
Number of tasks
. More tasks are solved, typically between 3 and 6.
. Every contest solution is evaluated by the contest server SGP.
Detailed description of individual criteria, correct program form and list of forbidden commands are described in detail in the contest
(in task n. 0 and in the instructions).
Resulting rank of the contest team is due to its average rank from all of the tasks. If a team didn't solve or submit any of the tasks, its rank in this task is after all of the contestants in the category, i. e. number of the contestants in the category + 1. Hence it is profitable only try to solve the task, because it's better to be the last of the contestants who submitted solution than to be after all of the contestants who enrolled to the contest.
Priority of criteria
. Criteria are evaluated in this succession:
1. Errors (scene(s), picture(s)-graphics, text file)
2. Program runtime duration
3. Number of commands (command icons)
4. Number of attempts
5. Solving time (time from task Start)
Time limit
School round: at least 45 minutes (we recommend 90 minutes) - but depends on school.
Regional round: 120 minutes.
International round: 180 minutes.
Enrollment for school to the contest.
School is enrolled to the contest when teacher enrolls first team from the school to the school round of the contest.
Enrollment for teams to the contest.
Teams are enrolled by teacher. First the teacher logs in on the contest server (with the login to his SGP account), in the left menu he chooses contest Baltie - school round, then clicks on the button "Enrollments" and enrolls teams and creates groups of teams.
Contest groups
. For optimal usage of computers in the contest place the organizer separates the teams to groups (according to number of computers) and for each group he enters: name of group, contest time (date and time from - to, when this group will compete) and verification code for the group Thanks to the possibility to define individual contest groups the contest place can have several times bigger capacity.
Contest time
. Date and time when contestants can see their submission and upload their programs to the server.
Contest time is determined by school organizer for every contest group.
Note 1: In the case of need (technical problems etc.) organizer of the contest place can move the end of contest time by the technical delay during contest duration time for the group, so the group can finish its work and upload files to the server.
Note 2: If a team couldn't upload files to the server till the end of the contest time of group because of different reasons (even with the help of supervisor), the contest place organizer can do it instead of the team after the end of the contest time. Organizer logs in, selects enrolled team, then chooses "Manage Tasks" and sends the job.
. Supervisor in computer classroom ensures that contestants during the task solving don't communicate with anybody else by no means, don't take copies of submissions etc.
Verification code for contest group
. Teams from the contest group can display submissions and upload files to the server only after entering this code. It ensures that nobody else can login to the contestant account and made the tasks instead of him. Supervisor must ensure that this verification code doesn't leave the room (by handphones, ICQ, Skype, email etc.).
Verification code for contest group can be changed by supervisor whenever a how many times he wants. For example if he has suspicion that anyone sent the code out of contest room or only for precaution. He tells pupils verification code when they are sitting in front of their computers - he can write it on the blackboard, for example.
IP addresses checking
. Contest server watches IP addresses, from which solutions are uploaded, so if IP address does not match, the supervisor can see it immediately.
Starting contest for a team
. The team leader (or any team member) selects contest Baltie and relevant round in the left menu, logs in with his UID and password. Then the team data appears and he enters the verification code for his contest group. Only after entering the code the tasks are displayed.
Access to the internet
. We recommend to forbid everything (web, email, Skype, ICQ etc.) with exception of the contest server SGP. This can be done by two ways:
allow only http://www.baltie.net
forbid all ports in firewall and allow only one port 8001 - on this port the contest server runs,
then contestants enter www.baltie.net:8001 to the internet browser (or you can create shortcut on the desktop for this address).
In the case of unclarity, please contact your administrator.
Note: this technical restriction is not obligatory, but we recommend it because it makes supervisor work easier.
On behalf of good course of school round of the contest we reserve the right to update the information on this page.

Muhammad's second message to me:
Hey thanks for reply I forgot to mention one more proof of why god exists and it has to do with Prophet Muhammad. Please look at this and then I will go back and make a comment on all the comments you made previously
Before I start I need to mention one thing. Arabic is not like English. You can come up with a story in english and write it down simply. The language you see in a textbook you can use in normal conversations. In arabic you cant. Meaning there is a way to talk arabic in normal conversations and there is a way to read arabic. You cant write down what you normally talk in arabic because it wouldnt make sense. In other words for something in arabic to be written, it must be in the language of readable material. If you cannot read arabic, you will not be able to make up readable material. You may be able to talk arabic normal in conversation but you wont be able to make up stories that can be written down UNLESS you know how to read arabic. Now that I cleard this up we move to my argument.
The fact that Prophet Muhammad did not know how to read or write and was illiterate means he couldn't have possibly come up with the Koran (which is in readable material) It was revealed to him by God and the prophet Muhammad memorized it and which he then recited to many people. Notice how I said it was recited to many people. There couldn't have possibly been a change or edit because any deviation in writting it would be easily detected by the people who memorized it at the time. The quran was written in book form within a few years after the prophet's death. Now back to the original argument, there was no way that the prophet himself could have come up with the quran when he was illiterate. You may say, well someone who knew how to read came up with the story and told Muhammad. Saying that wouldnt make sense in 2 ways. First the people back then did not believe in a god so why would a non believer help someone come up with a story to disprove his religion? Another thing, if there was someone capable of comming up with something so great like the Quran, what would he be doing hanging out with an uneducated illiterate Prophet Muhammad? He would be in much higher rankings.
My reply (again with some repeated text truncated):
Muhammad,...Please look at this and then I will go back and make a comment on all the comments you made previously
Okay, but it feels to me suspiciously like you are trying to change the subject. If you thought that all this quasi-scientific talk about energy and universe shitting was supposed to be persuasive proof of God in the first place, then why would you break off a half-finished conversation in order to bring up a wholly unrelated point about a supposedly illiterate person in the seventh century? It's a bit of a roundabout way to make a point, don't you think? If your entire belief in God is based on the literacy status of one guy, why didn't you just say so in the first place?...You may be able to talk arabic normal in conversation but you wont be able to make up stories that can be written down UNLESS you know how to read arabic. Now that I cleard this up we move to my argument.
That makes very little sense to me (are you saying that you can't make up a story and then dictate it?) but okay, we'll move on.[Argues that Muhammad, being illiterate, could not have written the Koran without a miracle.]
It all strikes me as an incredibly flimsy foundation on which to base believe in an infinitely powerful supernatural being living outside the universe. And I bet if you give it some thought, you can understand why.
Imagine yourself in my shoes for a minute. You are merely a poor benighted atheist, without any belief in God or supernatural magical powers whatsoever. I come to you and say "Look here, I know for a certainty that there is a magical being who lives in the sky and listens to every one of the seven billion people on this planet, every minute of every day. And the reason why I know this is that 1,500 years ago, an illiterate man wrote a book about him."
Thinking outside your religion for a moment, which do you honestly find easier to believe?
1. This being you've described really exists, despite a complete absence of other corroborating evidence.
2. I am somehow mistaken, and the author of this book either wasn't illiterate or somehow found SOMEBODY who was willing to listen to this story and write it down.
Before you answer, stop and ask yourself if your answer would be the same if the book was not the Koran but say, the book of Mormon, or a book about Scientology or something.
I think you know what my answer is.
Just curious, does anyone know what he talking about regarding the supposed impossibility of writing down spoken Arabic? Because Muhammad is really trying to hammer on this point in his latest message, and it doesn't make any sense to me at all. I mean, you could presumably speak conversational Arabic to a translator who spoke English, and then you could write down an English version of what he said. Why wouldn't you be able to write an Arabic version?

DatingPerfect Says…
MeowChat Review Introduction:
What is MeowChat? It's one of the best dating sites to help you connect with people for casual and more serious dating. This site helps online daters who are looking to connect, chat, and meet up. You'll be happy to hear the site offers most of the elements you'd expect from a dating site, but it also has a few unique features. Are you considering joining the MeowChat website? We hope to help you make the best decision for your dating life. In this article, we'll let you know about the site's users, sign up process, safety, costs, and more. Keep reading to discover our full MeowChat reviews below. If you do join, please come back and write a review to tell us what you think.
MeowChat Users:
So, what does the MeowChat membership look like? In this section, we'll tell you about who tends to join this dating site. Plus, we'll give you an idea of who you're likely to meet if you should choose to join. Because so many of the site's members are looking for the real deal when it comes to dating and marriage, you can expect to meet MeowChat members who are searching for something more serious. Not seeking a long term relationship or serious commitment? It's better for you to find this out now: MeowChat dating probably isn't the right choice for you. On the other hand, if you are seeking love and maybe even marriage, this site has a lot of good stuff to offer.
MeowChat Sign Up:
If you're interested in learning how to sign up for MeowChat, it's a pretty simple and streamlined operation. You can complete the whole process from start to finish in 15 minutes or less. Want to get started now? Visit the MeowChat sign in page. From there, you'll need to let the site know who you are and who you want to meet. What does that mean, exactly? The site asks for your gender identification, as well as the gender of your match. Once you've provided this info, you'll be asked to enter a valid email address and select a password. This is also the time to choose your MeowChat username. Of course, there's a lot we could say about how to choose the best username. But here's the short version: keep it fun and expressive. A great username makes use of descriptive words and tone to give others an idea of who you are and what you care about.From here, you'll fill out some basic personal info, like your age and location. The registration process is literally that simple. Once you've got your MeowChat login, you're free to sign in and start meeting new people right away.
MeowChat Chat:
So you registered as a member and now you're ready for some fun. Connecting and chatting with your new matches can be really exciting. Pretty much every dating site these days has the basic chat option available. In other words, you can send text messages to people you want to get to know using the site's platform. See someone cute? Use chat features to send out some flirty MeowChat messages. But it is the 21st century, you guys. That's why many dating sites are introducing more advanced connection features, like voice and video chat. These can help you get to know potential matches a little better. Interested in connecting with other members on the site and getting to know them? Good news, it's really simple. Just use the MeowChat search feature to see who's online. Then, when you find someone appealing, just send them a quick message and get a conversation started.
MeowChat Profiles:
Visit the MeowChat log in page to get started. Like we mentioned, most people who join this site are looking for long term commitment and marriage. This means that the site is going to ask you for quite a bit of personal info. While it can feel like a lengthy process to some, we encourage you to stick it out. Why? Because the more effort and energy you put into your MeowChat profile, the greater success the site will have in matching you with its most compatible members. A big part of filling out your profile will be completing the MeowChat questions. The purpose of these questions is usually to give the site's algorithm a chance to get to know you a little better so it can suggest viable matches. Want to get more clicks, messages, and likes? Then please take the time to fill out as much information as you can. It will show the site's other members that you're serious about meeting someone and willing to put in the effort. Just put yourself in their shoes for a sec. If you search MeowChat for a match and all they have on their profile is the most basic data, you're probably not going to stick around. So give yourself the best chance of success with a great dating site profile. We promise it will pay off.
MeowChat App:
According to our research, this dating site has an app available for Android. The MeowChat mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it's more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you'll be able to access the MeowChat desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you've got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.
MeowChat Pros:
MeowChat Cons:
Special Features:
MeowChat Safety:
Okay, so here's the question everyone wants answered first: Is MeowChat safe? We always encourage you to make that decision for yourself when you're thinking about joining a dating site. Do a little research and look into the site's safety features. For specific MeowChat safety tips, you can always refer to the site's own safety page. If the dating site you want to join doesn't have a safety page, use your best judgement before signing up. Have you encountered predatory behavior on the site? We always encourage you to contact MeowChat help to report suspicious activity. Trust your instincts if you feel unsafe or uncertain on any site. And never give your personal information to other members. You can help protect yourself and other members by bringing anyone suspicious to the attention of the site's moderators. They can also help if you're having trouble with your account or want to cancel MeowChat for any reason.
MeowChat Value for Money:
Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is MeowChat free? It's very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It's technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you're using MeowChat free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site's most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That's right, we're about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person's. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you're interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like MeowChat, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you'd like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you're much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success. Of course, at DatingPerfect we always want you to succeed. That's why we offer you all the info we can on the dating sites you want to learn about. Plus, we want to hook you up with MeowChat coupons whenever we can. Scroll down to learn more.

Almost eighteen years in the making, Big Blue Ball grew from three extraordinary Recording Weeks at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in the summers of 1991, 1992 and 1995. They came as a practical response to a problem that became a great creative idea. The Recording Weeks were arranged to clear a space between block bookings from the likes of New Order so that Real World artists with the budget for just a day or two recording could come together en masse to deliver their own albums and work on some side projects, too. The atmosphere and spirit of it was very important. The location of the studios, the café space that was open day and night. Each room had a different atmosphere for getting down all manner of collaborations and experiments.
For recording engineer Richard Chappell, who was there on the ground getting it all on tape, "it used the facilities in the best possible way. It was what Real World was designed for. The way that it's built, the way the rooms are put together, the spaces like the big room that really came into their own. I don't think could have happened anywhere else."
Hossam Ramzy, who had been invited to the Recording Week by Peter while touring Page and Plant's No Quarter remembers it being "like Christmas, Eid, Byram and my Birthday thrown together in one. To co write with Peter, Natacha and my musicians was like another gear shift upwards. I found myself with my musicians experiencing something new. Something that opened their eyes to a style of collaboration they had never experienced before."
Among the united nations of performers who found their way to Real World during those weeks were Billy Cobham, Papa Wemba, Hossam Ramzy and The Egyptian String Ensemble, Sinead O'Connor, Natacha Atlas, flamenco guitarist Juan Canizares, American singer Joseph Arthur, Afro Celts James McNally and Iarla Ó Lionáird, Japanese percussionist Joji Hirota, Jah Wobble, gospel group The Holmes Brothers, Justin Adams, Francis Bebey, Tim Finn, Marta Sebestyen, guitarist Vernon Reid, Chinese flute player Guo Yue.
And those are just some of the ones who made the final cut. But the party also included Nigel Kennedy, Remmy Ongala, Dan Lanois, Van Morrison (singing Sam Cooke's That's Where It's At with The Holmes Brothers), and the amazing Terem Quartet of balalaika players (reportedly once members of the same tank crew). And then there was Joe Strummer's impromptu entrance-hall encampment decked it out with drapes and candles and a four-track tape machine.
Iggy Pop dropped by, followed by celebrity couple of the day, Johnny Depp and Kate Moss. Even John Cage was there, in spirit at least; when news of his death came through during the first recording week, Penguin Café Orchestra leader Simon Jeffes, who was working in the 'arcane' studio in the same corrugated building that housed the 24-hour café, led his musicians through chord changes that spelled out the composers name C-A-G-E.
The project's originators and curators were Real World founder Peter Gabriel and Karl Wallinger of World Party and The Waterboys. As Peter recalls, "The Big Blue Ball was a working name for a project that would pull in elements from all around the world. The title came from listening to an astronaut describe his experience of looking back at the earth. All other divisions seemed ridiculous and arbitrary, because there's the planet, the whole thing — and that idea seemed to make a lot of sense for this project."
It was also the title of a song Karl Wallinger had put in the pot early on. This, along with the likes of Everything Comes from You, featuring Sinead O'Connor, and Gabriel's Burn You Up, Burn You Down, were first put down in 1991 and worked on in subsequent Recording Weeks.
"It was an amazing feeling, with all of it happening at once," remembers Karl. "There were different producers in different studios. John Leckie, Phil Ramone, people you respect, it was fun to dive in — I'd do guest guitar in one room, a bit of singing in another."
For Wallinger, the role of curator was "simultaneously doing opposite things — you want to give the sessions control and direction while trying to do the opposite, to create an anarchic space where people can add their piece with as little affectation as possible. That's a fine line to tread, between too much authority and letting people go. It's like being a mini local government — making sure there's roads and bridges."
Richard Chappell, who engineered and recorded the original sessions, remembers most of the collective projects happening upstairs in Peter's room, with individual album projects getting done in the big studio. "Peter was at the centre of operations, but it wasn't Peter's project, it was a communal project in a writing, musician's community."
"It's like a wall of sound coming at you, listening to the planet from outer space," says Karl Wallinger of the final mix. "It's a real world-view of music, a snapshot of the music-making continents at that time. It was easy to put an Egyptian string section with a Japanese drummer in the same room and have some sort of groove for them to follow, basically to invent a piece of music that people from all over the world could play on together."
Holding the disparate elements in place is the backbone of the big drum tracks underpinning many of the songs. "Each one began with an eight-minute rhythm track," remembers Karl. "That's what was set up, that was the basic backbone. Everyone was in orbit around this groove, and there is a universal language of dance, of dance grooves. That groove is the one bit that's non-denominational on the album."
The other non-denominational bit is the time it's taken - eighteen years from first groove to final mix — to get it finished. What the heck too them so long?
Even back in 1995, Karl Wallinger could see troubles ahead, "I don't know how we're going to finish things. It's all very well recording but you see all these tapes building up and you think, it would be nice to get a finished track at some point."
Still supervising the final mixes in January 2008, Richard Chappell concurs. "By the final recording week in 1995, there were people turning up to record everywhere — there were people in the toilet with a tape deck putting something down." And they were running out of storage room for the tapes.
After the last Recording Week in 1995, the musicians and producers dispersed, the tapes stayed up on the shelves, and the Big Blue Ball all but sank from view until producer Stephen Hague (Pet Shop Boys, Robbie Williams, Mel C) came on board to begin cutting and comping the mess of recorded material Karl and Peter had put in the can. Tchad Blake (Peter Gabriel, Tom Waits, American Music Club) was tasked with the final mixing in 2007.
Not only was there the sheer volume of raw material to contend with, by the time they started on post production there was a major format change to overcome. "We set up this massive transfer system from tape to digital," recalls Amanda Jones of Real World Records. "And Stephen Hague would sit there in the stone room, chopping and cutting with his computer, taking a line here and putting it there to bring this thing down to a listenable length."
"I felt a bit like a prospector," remembers Stephen Hague, "sifting through finer and finer screens, trying to highlight the best elements of each track and all the individual performances." He takes the opening track Habibe as an example. "Habibe started life as an 18 minute jam by Natacha Atlas and an amazing improvised string section over a drone and percussion track. But I had a hard time coaxing it into any kind of shape until I introduced some chords to help support her melodies. I asked Peter if I was straying too far from the original recording, but he liked what he was hearing and was very supportive, telling me he just wanted the best setting for the main performances, and to make a great record, wherever that led."
The recording week sessions were all about vibe and momentum and the buzz of having all that talent in one place for only a short time. "Work on one song often led to the start of a new collaboration, and a brand new track became that evening's focus," says Stephen. "There ended up being a lot of loose ends. I had a great fun helping to pull it all together..."
"It's amazing its managed to come out," says Karl. "There's such a lot of stuff, a lot of things to iron out, I have a lot of admiration for the people who sat there and put it together. On some tracks it's like there's a football field of musicians coming at you."
Making sense of these epic week-long sessions must have been extremely daunting. And very little of it came with a clear road map - Peter Gabriel reckons about 80 per cent of the material was generated on the spur of the moment. "There were 16 or 17 songs altogether. Different people would be leaders at different points while we were trying to steer all this craziness in the writing room above the big studio."
And what of Big Blue Ball's impact today, 13 years after the final sessions? "It's a more apt time to release it now than ever before," says Karl. "I think it's actually gathered weight with time, because it's people from all over the world playing together, just getting on together. There's an iconic aspect about that which is probably more important now. Things have become more partisan. It's a timely reminder of how you can cooperate."
And it exudes an enormous joy de vivre of musical discovery, of finding common musical tongues that the Big Blue Ball has carried from the original spirit of the original sessions through all those years in limbo to the finished copy you have now. "After all these years, it's a fine wine ready to be drunk," says Peter Gabriel, "It was the most fun music making I've ever had. I'd love to do it again."
Karl Wallinger: "Andy White and Tim Finn were huddled on the floor in the writing room. Bassist Alexis Faku was locked in the groove and we were trying to find our way in the dark, put it on tape, and give it a middle and end." Frances Bebey played a Pygmee flute, or ndewhoo, which played just two notes. "The rest of the tune was made up of his own voice," remembers Peter. "You couldn't know when it was him or the flute. It was a magical ritualistic music and we were hypnotised. The smallest things can have the biggest impact."
From the final Recording Week in 1995. Natacha Atlas sings with an Egyptian string section brought in by Hossam Ramzy. Peter Gabriel: "The leader would improvise, and the other guys followed slightly behind him, so you get this serpent-like weaving of notes." The original take was over twenty minutes long, with everyone in the room together with the strings in the centre and Peter and Karl conducting the session from the side of the room.
First recorded in the 1991 session, with Papa Wemba's extraordinary vocals and his percussionists laying down the groove. Key to this track is the flamenco guitar of Juan Cañizares locking in with Papa Wemba's sound. It's a marriage made in heaven.
French techno duo Deep Forest (Eric Mouquet and Michel Sanchez) brought in the piano riff, American singer Joseph Arthur provided the verse and while Irish singer Iarla Ó Lionáird recorded the Gaelic chorus, a fellow in sunglasses who turned out to be James McNally pulled a flute from his shirt pocket — and that's the Irish whistle on the chorus. Papa Wemba's band underlay a conga rhythm line, and Living Colour's Vernon Reid adds some definitive synth guitar lines.
Joseph Arthur and Peter Gabriel composed this in about an hour during the 1995 sessions. Guitarist Justin Adams was there, brought in for backing vocals, but the basic song featured just Peter, Joseph, and Karl Wallinger.
Joji Hirota (Japanese percussionist and composer, formerly Musical Director of Lindsay Kemp's theatre company) co-wrote this with Sinead O'Connor. Flautist Guo Yue was sat in a circle of Chinese pina players with Sinead to one side. "It's a real mixture between Joji, who came up with a piano melody, and Sinead, who added her thing to it," says Peter. "It's a nice mix of moods and cultures." Includes the last recording session for the album with Sevara Nazarkhan's vocals added in 2007.
Another song that comes from the first year. Richard Chappell: "This was the long groovy track and everyone ended up in the workroom at midnight listening to it — Billy Cobham on drums, a lot of red wine going round." Peter recalls the Holmes Brothers' involvement: "Popsy Dixon had this very high voice, a hauntingly beautiful voice, and he'd come up with these high notes that hit me hard every time he reached them."
The first track recorded for Big Blue Ball. Senegalese djembe player Arona N'diaye started this off with some percussion. "He was such an amazing guy," says Peter. "He made you feel joyful. He just wanted to jam and had great energy." N'diaye appears on three of the album's tracks, and was a key presence in the first year's recording session, laying down lots of grooves. Vernon Reid overdubbed his guitar on this in the second year.
Richard Chappell remembers producer John Leckie being involved in this session with Hungarian singer Marta Sebestyen ("a real character, with real attitude"). Leckie was producing Turkmenistan ensemble Ashkabad, but was around when this was put down in the upstairs writing room.
This is Madagascan singer Rossy's rap from the first year. Arona N'diaye begins it, and Jah Wobble comes in with his arpeggioed bass. The brass section on this was added later by Chuck Norman. Peter remembers "Rossy arriving with a valiha — a wonderful sounding instrument made out of bamboo and bicycle brake wire. It's like a harp they make themselves, with a beautiful sound, and he then added this rap."
Peter: "This was Karl's baby. He generously crafted it and threw it into the pot in the first year."
Richard Chappell: "At the end of each night over the next two recording weeks I remember staying up with Karl working out what he would do with the vocal. We'd work on it for about an hour every night, adding harmony vocals. But the rest of it was pretty much done straight away."

San Juan Islands Sailing Charters and Cruises
We provide yacht and crew. You relax and enjoy.
The Art of Slow Travel
Something special happens when we cast off the dock lines and head out into the San Juan Islands on a sailing charter. We become aware of the rhythm of the tides, the wind filling the sails, the salty sea air, and the porpoise following in our wake. The hidden coves and diverse marine life of the San Juans beckon us to make discoveries and submerge ourselves in its delightfully relaxed pace.
So much of the world passes by without our being able to see, touch, or feel it. A sailing charter through the San Juan islands allows us to take a moment to slow down and experience it for ourselves.
We have been perfecting the art of "slow travel" for over 25 years. Our new 55′ sailboat Northwind, offers a luxury yacht charter experience for up to six guests in private staterooms with ensuite baths. Each one of our San Juan Sailing Charters and Inside Passage cruises are one of a kind, designed for your group from the ground up. From your preferences on food and drink, to where we go and what we see and do, the result is a perfect blending of islands, yacht, crew, and cuisine.

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, in the quest for convenience, everything in our world was trending more towards "virtual" services. The coronavirus quarantining of the past year and a half has only increased the need for such online avenues. The mortgage industry is no exception. One of the ways the home loan trade is adapting is with a virtual closing process, otherwise known as "eClosing."
eClosing Defined
Short for electronic mortgage closing, an eClosing takes the final step of the home loan process and allows it to be completed digitally. This involves both seller and buyer reviewing the transaction documents and signing them online. The sale is then finalized, and the ownership is transferred to the buyer. While a traditional closing requires driving to an office building, meeting with agents and title professionals, sitting down with a stack of paperwork and signing in pen and ink, an eClosing can take place from the comfort of home or in any location where there is internet connection (like when you're on vacation or away for business.) eClosings use a secure, online portal to protect all the sensitive information from hackers.
In some cases, a few important documents, like the deed of trust or the promissory not, may still need to be signed in person, but in general an eClosing can handle most of the paperwork.
Full and Hybrid eClosing Options
Whenever you sign mortgage papers, a notary public must be present to witness that it was actually you who signed. With an eClosing this can be done in two different ways:
- Hybrid Closing – this is the most common type, consisting of a combination of paper and electronic signatures, with the you and the notary meeting in person
- Full eClosing – this is what it sounds like. All documents are signed digitally and the notary can either be there in person (in-person electronic notarization or IPEN) or can be virtually in the room to witness through video conferencing (remote online notarization or RON.) This last option does not require any face-to-face meetings, a perfect fit for those most anxious about coronavirus transmission. However, some states do not allow RON eClosings so check with your agent to see what is available to you.
The Good and Bad
Obviously eClosing offers both buyers and sellers enormous flexibility in where and when they can sign their mortgage documents. It is convenient and saves time in travel. An eClosing can also make it easier to correct mistakes in the contract. If one is detected during the signing, it can be altered right away rather than having to kill another forest and print up a new packet of the contract. It can sometimes be cheaper than a traditional closing, as fewer people and office space is required.
An eClosing is not for everyone though. Those who are not very tech-savvy or who don't have access to a computer or the internet are better off with a traditional closing.

xteddy [ -wm -float -noquit -nocursor -F<file> ][ -geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y -display SERVER ]
[ -h --help -v ]
Xteddy is a cuddly teddy bear for your X Windows desktop.Normally, xteddy just sits around doing nothing. After all, that's what teddy bears are for. Look at him, talk to him, place heavy windows on top of him, zap him around until he becomes dizzy, do what you like; he will always be your true (albeit virtual) friend.
You can move xteddy with the mouse by pointing at him and dragging him around. When clicked upon, he will pop up on top of all other windows. If you type "q" or "Esc" on him, he will exit (or, as I like to think of it, be tucked away in the file system until you need him next time).
That's it. But he's cute.
- -wm
- Use the window manager. Normally, xteddy sets the override_redirect flag for his window, which will cause most window managers to ignore him. However, some window managers might have problems coping with a window that is nailed directly to the root. In that case, use this option. If possible, instruct your window manager not to put any title bar or window frame on the window, or xteddy will lose some of his charm.
- -float
- Float up on top of overlapping windows. This will make xteddy stay in sight at all times, so you won't lose him. However, this is a bit intrusive and quite unlike a real teddy bear, so it is not the default action.
- -noquit
- Disable the "quit" command (do not quit when typing "q" in the window, but of course still on explicit window kills or process kills). This might seem an unnecessary option, but if you use the -wm option Xteddy might keep receiving keyboard events even after the mouse has left his window. I you use the -wm option in conjunction with a click-to-type window manager, you would probably want to include this option.
- -nocursor
- Disable the X11 cursor over the xteddy window.
- -F,-f
- < file > Display another image instead of xteddy. file can be the full name of an image file which reasonably should contain a transparent background. If there is no such file in the current working directory xteddy searches in $(installation_prefix)/share/xteddy, where $(installation_prefix) is determined at compile time (for instance /usr/X11R6). If this fails by default /usr/share/xteddy is searched. Failing this, /usr/local/share/xteddy is searched. If there is no such file in these directories the following appendixes where appended to the given name: xpm, png, tif, jpg, jpeg, gif and pnm. These files will be searched in the three directories. If all files the last try is to append the extensions in upper cases. '-F' and '-f' are equivalent, and the space in '-f <file>' is optional.
If no `-F` parameter is given file equals to xteddy or more precisely to the name of the calling program. For instance if there is a symlink
ln -s xteddy xpenguin
then file equals to xpenguin and the appropriate pixmaps with the name xpenguin are searched for.
- -geometry
- The standard X geometry specification. Only X and Y position requests are honored. Any height and width specifications will be ignored.
- -display
Specify an X server other than the local display.
- -h, --help
Print a help message and exit.
- -v
Print the version number and exit.
The cast of characters is currently: teddy xalex xbobo xbrummi xcherubino xduck xhedgehog xklitze xnamu xorca xpenguin xpuppy xruessel xteddy xtrouble.png xtrouble_large xtuxxy.
Stefan Gustavson, ISY-LiTH ([email protected]). Xteddy is distributed under the GNU General Public License.BUGS
The Desktop Manager in Sun CDE (Common Desktop Environment) does not like xteddy. Xteddy by default does not use the window manager, and so he shows up as a sticky window on all desktops. If you don't like this, and try to circumvent it by running him with the -wm option, move him by grabbing him by the tummy instead of by the title bar, and then move him partly off the screen, the image is lost and never redrawn again, so all you see is a silhouette of a teddy bear. I have no idea why this happens. If you know, please tell me, and if you can fix it, please do. If you run CDE on other platforms than Sun, please tell me if it works for you. CDE does something which xteddy does not handle properly, and since I have a Sun with CDE myself I would like to know what the problem is.For most X servers, the -float option does not work properly if xteddy is moved partially off the screen. This is the X server's fault, not mine.
If two copies of xteddy are placed so they overlap, and both were run with the -float option, the X server will try to put each on top of the other in an endless loop, which looks very bad and takes a lot of CPU power.
Xteddy does not make use of the X resource database. I just didn't get around to that.

NFL Wild Card Playoff Recap – Saints, Colts Win Wild Card Games
The New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts each won their wild card round playoff game in dramatic fashion on Saturday. Here's a recap of the action from both games:
New Orleans 26, Philadelphia 24
Shayne Graham kicked a game-winning 32-yard field goal as time expired, and the New Orleans Saints beat the Eagles, 26-24, in Philadelphia in the wild card round of the NFC playoffs on Saturday night. The Saints advanced to the divisional round, where they will face top-seeded Seahawks in Seattle next Saturday.
The Eagles rallied from a 20-7 deficit in the third quarter to take a 24-23 lead on a 3-yard touchdown pass from Nick Foles to Zach Ertz with 4:54 to play. Darren Sproles returned the ensuing kickoff 39 yards, with an additional 15-yards tacked on for a horse collar tackle penalty on Philadelphia's Cary Williams. New Orleans then moved the ball into field goal range for Graham's kick.
Mark Ingram carried 18 times for 97 yards and a score for New Orleans. Drew Brees threw for 250 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. He completed passes to nine different receivers in the game.
Foles passed for 195 yards and two touchdowns. Philadelphia running back LeSean McCoy carried 21 times for 77 yards and a score.
Indianapolis 45, Kansas City 44
Andrew Luck threw a 64-yard touchdown pass to T.Y. Hilton with 4:21 left, and the Colts miraculously rallied past the Kansas City Chiefs, 45-44, in the wild card round of the AFC playoffs in Indianapolis on Saturday. The Colts overcame a 28-point second-half deficit to advance to next week's divisional round of the NFL playoffs.
Luck's pass to Hilton was the fifth touchdown of the second half for Indianapolis. They trailed 38-10 after Alex Smith threw a 10-yard TD pass to Knile Davis early in the third quarter. The Chiefs managed just two field goals over the rest of the game. They saw their final hopes dashed when Smith's fourth-down pass fell incomplete in Colts' territory with 1:55 to play.
Luck completed 29 of his 45 pass attempts for 443 yards and four touchdowns with three interceptions. He also recovered teammate Donald Brown's fumble for a score to pull Indianapolis within 41-38 at the start of the fourth quarter. Hilton had 13 catches for 224 yards and two touchdowns for the Colts.
If Cincinnati beats San Diego tomorrow, the Colts will travel to Denver next Sunday. If the Chargers win, Indianapolis will face New England in Foxborough, Mass. next Saturday night.
Despite losing running back Jamaal Charles for the game after he suffered a possible concussion on the first drive, Kansas City broke out to a 31-10 halftime lead largely on the strength of three touchdown passes from Smith. He passed for 378 yards and four scores in the game.
Dwayne Bowe had eight receptions for 150 yards and a touchdown for the Chiefs. Charles' replacement Knile Davis carried 18 times for 67 yards and a score before leaving with a knee injury in the fourth quarter.

Thinking About Succession Planning
If you haven't been thinking about succession planning, the bottom line is that you should be. In the February 20, 2019 Divestopia article, "All Companies Need to Look at Succession Planning," author Brad Cherniak examines the importance of succession planning. Owning and/or operating a business can be a great deal of work, but it is imperative to take the time to develop a succession plan.
Succession Planning is for Businesses of All Sizes
Author Cherniak wants every business owner to realize that succession planning isn't just for big businesses. Yet, Cherniak points out that the majority of small-to-medium sized businesses, as well as their senior managers, simply don't focus much on succession planning at all.
Many business owners see succession planning as essentially being the same as exiting a business. Cherniak is quick to point out that while the two can be linked and may, in fact, overlap, they are by no means the same thing. They should not be treated as such.
Following an Arc Pattern
Importantly, Cherniak notes, "Succession planning should also be linked to your strategic planning." He feels that both entrepreneurs and businesses managers follow an arc pattern where their "creativity, energy and effectiveness" are all concerned. As circumstances change, entrepreneurs and business managers can become exhausted and even a liability.
The arc can also change due to a company's changing circumstances. All of these factors point to "coordinating the arcs of business," which includes "startup, ramp-up, growth, consolidation, renewed growth and maturity," with whomever is running the business at the time. In this way, succession planning is not one-dimensional. Instead it should be viewed as quite a dynamic process.
Evaluating Each Company Individually
Cherniak highlights the importance of making sure that the team matches the needs of a company as well as its stages of development. Who is running a company and setting its direction? Answering these questions is important. It also is of paramount importance to make sure that the right person is in charge at the optimal time.
Companies and their circumstances can change. This change can often occur without much notice. As Cherniak points out, few small-to-medium sized businesses focus on succession planning, and this is potentially to their detriment.

All is well, it seems, with 4-year-old Abigael Evans of Fort Collins, Colo.
You might remember that a week or so before the presidential election, a video of her went viral. "I'm tired of Bronco Bamma and Mitt Romney," Abbie tearfully told her mom after being subjected to one more NPR report about the presidential campaign (we apologized for making her cry). Many folks sympathized with her pain — "We Are All Abigael Evans," Time wrote.
But after President Obama's re-election, Abbie is apparently happy.
"Yay!" she says on a short sequel when her mom tells her who won.
(H/T to brother Jim Memmott.)
