I put some buttons on there to show y'all what they will look like when they're full of embellishments and trinkets galore. I am so pleased with how they turned out. I went back and forth trying to decide whether to paint them black satin or heirloom white. My final decision was based on the fact that my new workspace (all in my head at this point) will have white walls, white beadboard, white shelves, etc. I'd like all of my accessories to be black and white with a dash of color thrown in here and there.
Now, for those of you wondering how I did this...it was quite simple. First I wiped them down with a tack cloth. Then I applied a thin layer of spray primer...Rustoleum Painter's Touch White Primer. Next, I used Rustoleum Satin Black and applied several thin coats. Be sure and wait the appropriate amount of time between coats. Tomorrow I will put a couple clear coats on top for added protection and hopefully to prevent scratching.
I am thrilled with the outcome and can hardly wait to use them in my new workspace. I think they will add just the right touch of whimsy, personality, and uniqueness! Plus...they will be super cute paired with my new dress form!

If you own a condo, certain areas of the property are typically covered by the HOA insurance policy, but how much? The interior of your home (from the walls in, including drywall and appliances) and your personal possessions are covered. If someone is injured in your private area, the HOA insurance policy won't cover it. Every condominium insurance policy varies in what is covered, what it will payout on, and what restrictions are part of the policy. You don't have time to read the small print, but at Insurance Line One in Pompano Beach, Florida, we do. Our local team works to find the best coverage at the lowest rates from a range of providers.
Some of the types of condominium insurance that should be in place include coverage for alterations, appliances, fixtures, and any other structures unique to your unit, as well as the property for which the association agreement holds you responsible. Your condo should be protected against losses associated with fire, smoke damage, storm damage (wind, rain, ice, snow, hail, etc.), as well as theft, vandalism, or mischief.
You are responsible for any losses to a guest or visitor due to accidental injury that occurs on your property, from slip and fall injuries to dog bites – or damage to another's property. Should a lawsuit be filed against you to attempt to recover financial compensation after an injury or other loss, you are protected by your condo insurance policy up to the set coverage limits.
What specific types of condominium insurance coverage do you need? At Insurance Line One, we live and work locally and are available to review your current policies, as well as your association agreement. We can help you determine the types of coverage and how much you need to put in place to protect against the risk of loss. We always search out the best prices for the highest level of coverage, and we are committed to helping local condo owners get the peace of mind they deserve.

The BrikWars Forums - Terms of use
By accessing the BrikWars Forum (hereinafter "we", "us", "our", "The BrikWars Forums", "https://brikwars.com/forums") or BrikWars Wiki ("http://brikwars.com/wiki"), you agree to be legally bound by the following Terms. If you do not agree to be legally bound by all of the following Terms then please do not access and/or use the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki.
We may change these Terms at any time and will probably not bother to inform you. You agree that this neglectful disregard for any semblance of proper administrative decorum is not only acceptable but maybe even kind of awesome, and agree to get used to it because that's pretty much par for the course around here.
We all collectively agree to suspend disbelief and pretend that you will review these Terms regularly on your own, as your continued usage of the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki after changes to the Terms mean that you continue to agree to be legally bound by these Terms as they are updated and/or amended.
While the administrators and moderators of the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki will attempt to remove or edit any generally objectionable material as quickly as their complete lack of interest in your welfare allows, it is impossible to review every post and article, and it should especially be noted that they almost certainly have a completely different opinion about what kinds of material are objectionable than you do. In fact, given that the nominal purpose of the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki is to abet and encourage participants in the unapologetic objectification of human beings into helpless toy effigies for the purpose of brutalization and slaughter, it makes it hard to take lesser objectionable material seriously. When a newcomer is happy to show up for that kind of misanthropy party, but then can't handle a little bit of questionable language, baseless hostility, political incorrectness, or arbitrary exclusionism, it's logical to conclude that that individual is either defective in some regard, or not defective enough in some other regard, and in either case better off kicked out. Luckily, in most cases, a number of members will be happy to to inform the newcomer of their shortcoming, and will go on to discuss his, her, or their most probable other defects in inexplicable detail and at baffling length.
Regardless, you acknowledge that all content submitted to the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki expresses, at most, the views and opinions of their particular author(s) only, and not those of the administrators, moderators, or webmaster (including content submitted by those specific people; you should assume that any or all of their statements may be part of a long-running satire whose nuance and years of development you've already missed completely), and hence they will not be held liable.
You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, or sexually-oriented material, or any other material that may violate any applicable laws. However, since U.S. law defines obscenity only in terms of the standards of the community in which it appears, you agree to accept the fact that the existing community already has strong opinions about what is or isn't obscene, and that as a new member you will have no idea what they are, and that for as long as you assert that your ideas of proper behavior and subject matter trump those of the existing community, you're on a fast track to getting banned from said community.
Where material appears that is abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented, or all of the above, you agree to remain mindful of the likelihood that it is presented for satiric or editorial purposes rather than merely prurient ones.
Behavior that causes administrators or moderators to become irritated, to be embarrassed on your behalf, or to notice your existence at all during a time when they have nothing better to do, will frequently lead to you being temporarily or permanently banned, often several times in succession.
The IP address of all posts is recorded to aid in enforcing these conditions.
Many of the conditions that result in arbitrary bans are listed in the List of Automatic Ban Offenses. This list is not comprehensive.
You agree that the webmaster, administrator, and moderators of the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki have the right to remove, edit, move or close any submitted material at any time should they see fit, sometimes for good reasons but usually to make you look dumb when you're taking yourself too seriously. The checks and balances of the administrative system and processes are described in further detail in The Rules.
As a user you agree to any information you enter being stored in a database. While personal registration information will not be disclosed to any third party without your consent, the webmaster, administrator, and moderators cannot be held responsible for any hacking attempt that may lead to the data being compromised.
All text, images, media, and other content submitted to the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki are copyright © their respective owners. By submitting, posting, or displaying content on or through the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki, you understand and agree that the content can and will be distributed to anyone visiting the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki, and that this is in fact the point of submitting content in the first place.
More importantly, you recognize the collaborative nature of the BrikWars community, and understand and agree that by submitting, posting or displaying content on or through the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars wiki, you grant members of the BrikWars Forum community a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, copy, modify, publish, display, and distribute that content on other sections of the BrikWars site, including but not limited to the BrikWars Forum, the BrikWars Wiki, the BrikWars News feed
(https://brikwars.com), and, most audaciously, the BrikWars rulebooks themselves (https://brikwars.com/rules), inasmuch as you are the rightful copyright owner in a position to grant such license.
In turn, you agree that if you, we, or other members take advantage of this license to use, copy, modify, publish, display, or distribute such submitted content, that it is done only on sections of the BrikWars site; that a good faith effort will be made to credit the copyright holder appropriately, by name or with a link to the original content; that the use of any such content will be discontinued immediately if the copyright holder objects for even the most petty or arbitrary reason; and that, fundamentally speaking, you're not going to be a dick about using other people's stuff or them using yours.
You acknowledge that absolutely nothing about the BrikWars Forum or BrikWars Wiki is appropriate for children under the age of 18, or for children over the age of 18, or especially for adults. Because the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki occasionally make reference to or incorporate independent thought, rational skepticism, and opposition to arbitrary norms, they are also not appropriate for Americans, religious adherents, or people currently incarcerated in a public school system. The unbridled glee with which violence is glorified in its most gratuitous and dehumanizing forms makes the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki inappropriate for members of any species with any measurable degree of civilization or literacy; this is understood to include humanity, despite all appearances to the contrary.
To summarize: You agree that if you are reading this, you acknowledge that you are a member of one or more of the groups for whom the BrikWars Forum and BrikWars Wiki are inappropriate, and thus you are ineligible to complain about their contents because you already know that you shouldn't be here in the first place.
Users are expected to be totally awesome at all times.
By registering as a user of this site, you agree to be bound by these conditions. By clicking the 'I Agree to these terms' button upon registration, you extra double agree to be bound by these conditions.
Lastly, a few words of advice: There are some stickied threads at the top of the New People Start Here, Announcements, and Administration sub-forums that you should make yourself aware of before saying or doing something that makes everyone loathe you and curse your name. In particular, if you'd like to introduce yourself, post in the Introductions thread; if you'd like to post photos, look for the How To Post Pictures thread.
By accessing "The BrikWars Forums" (hereinafter "we", "us", "our", "The BrikWars Forums", "https://brikwars.com/forums"), you agree to be legally bound by the following terms. If you do not agree to be legally bound by all of the following terms then please do not access and/or use "The BrikWars Forums". We may change these at any time and we'll do our utmost in informing you, though it would be prudent to review this regularly yourself as your continued usage of "The BrikWars Forums" after changes mean you agree to be legally bound by these terms as they are updated and/or amended.
Our forums are powered by phpBB (hereinafter "they", "them", "their", "phpBB software", "www.phpbb.com", "phpBB Limited", "phpBB Teams") which is a bulletin board solution released under the "GNU General Public License v2" (hereinafter "GPL") and can be downloaded from www.phpbb.com.

You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated or any other material that may violate any laws be it of your country, the country where "The BrikWars Forums" is hosted or International Law. Doing so may lead to you being immediately and permanently banned, with notification of your Internet Service Provider if deemed required by us.

text: This extraordinary mixed flower bouquet delivers your sympathy with a beauty and faith that reflects the love and loss you feel. The asymmetrical bouquet is hand-arranged by our talented designers to make a reverent and respectful setting for an urn of the deceased's cremated remains. Around an angel sculpted of artist's resin are white roses, carnations, Stargazer lilies, statice and lush greens in a tabletop container that's not visible when set on a flat surface. It makes a fitting focal point for a wake or funeral service.

David Bromley's artworks have two clear focal points – the Boys Own adventure project and the Female Nude series. Born in Sheffield, England, in 1960, Bromley came to Australia in 1964. He began his career in Adelaide as a potter, but eventually turned to painting. He takes inspiration from childhood books, popular culture and artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Glen Baxter.
Bromley focuses on the physical and emotional journey of life's travels, using the imagery of the Boys Own comic culture to paint vivid, passionate pictures of the spills and thrills of childhood. He centres on the adolescent years where he believes life is at its most intense and its demands are at their strongest.
He uses colour and figurative expressionism with nostalgia and the symbolism of Pop Art to hint at the innocence of the young. However, nothing is set in concrete and he leaves his work open to interpretation by the viewer. Even his still life pictures seem to have spontaneous movement.
Bromley's nudes portray the female form in contemporary fashion, as seen in the media, and this contrast to his other work serves as a breath of fresh air. He makes use of layering and texturing techniques while employing mediums such as metallic paint and leaf combined with black outlines on bold colours. He says the creation of two such dissimilar themes helps to keep his approach fresh.
Since the mid-1980s, Bromley has had more than 30 solo exhibitions nationally as well exhibiting regularly throughout Europe, the UK, South Africa, Asia and the US.
David Bromley was an Archibald Prize finalist for four consecutive years, plus 2008 and has been listed by the Australian Art Collector as one of Australia's 50 most collectible artists.

Click here to watch Escape From Planet Earth now
On the alien planet Baab, admired astronaut Scorch Supernova (Brendan Fraser) is a national hero to the blue alien population. A master of daring rescues, Scorch pulls off astonishing feats with the quiet aid of his nerdy, by-the-rules brother, Gary (Rob Corddry), head of mission control at BASA. When BASA's no-nonsense chief Lena (Jessica Alba) informs the brothers of an SOS from a notoriously dangerous planet, Earth, Scorch rejects Gary's warnings and bounds off for yet another exciting mission. But when Scorch finds himself caught in a fiendish trap set by the evil Shanker (William Shatner) it's up to scrawny, risk-adverse Gary to do the real rescuing. As the interplanetary stakes rise to new heights, Gary is left to save his brother, his planet, his beloved wife Kira (Sarah Jessica Parker), and their adventure hungry son Kip. Also featuring the voices of Sofia Vergara, Ricky Gervais, and Craig Robinson.

In addition, Non-Personally Identifiable Information is compiled by us and analyzed on an aggregate basis.
When you place an order or enter a sweepstakes or promotion, we request that you send us Personally Identifiable Information. This information lets us know the specifics of who you are and can be used to identify, contact or locate you. Personally Identifiable Information may consist of: your name, address, telephone number, email address, birth date, billing information (credit card number, expiration date and billing address), occasion type (Valentine's Day, etc.), products purchased, any relevant promotion code and information (for example, reward program account information) and the gift and message recipient's name, address, telephone number, email address and any other information you may provide us ("Personally Identifiable Information" ). We use Personally Identifiable Information for internal purposes, such as confirming and tracking your order, subscription or registration, analyzing trends and statistics, informing you of our new products, services and offers. Personally Identifiable Information is compiled by us and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis.
To serve you better, we may combine Personally Identifiable Information you give us online or through our catalogs. We may also combine that information with publicly available information about you that we may receive from third parties. We use that combined information to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us, to communicate with you about our products and for other promotional purposes.
We may contract with third-party companies or persons to provide certain services including credit card processing, distribution, data management, promotional services, etc. ("Service Providers"). We provide our Service Providers with the information needed for them to perform these services. We also ask our Service Providers to confirm that their privacy practices are consistent with ours.
When you place an order, we require you to provide us with Personal Information. We use this information to give you a customized experience and to process the orders that you place with us.
For your shopping convenience, when you place an order, we automatically establish your own Personal Account where information used in placing such order (including billing address, email address, telephone number(s) and rewards program information) is saved. Your Personal Account is password protected from third parties. You may access your Personal Account by requesting your password from us (go to My Account) and then signing in with that password. Afterward, you may change your password, edit your Personal Information or request a password reminder at any time. Our database stores your billing and delivery information, and will automatically transfer it to the order form each time you place an order so that you do not have to re-enter this information when you sign in at subsequent visits.
The recipient phone number, which you furnish to us when you place an order, is used for delivery purposes. On some occasions, the recipient may be called to schedule delivery. To maintain our high quality standards, we will occasionally contact recipients to ensure satisfaction with their gift.
Cookies: Like many other commercial sites, our Sites may utilize standard technologies called "cookies" and clear GIFs to collect information about how each of our Sites is used. A cookie is a small data text file, which a Web site stores on your computer's hard drive (if your Web browser permits) that can later be retrieved to identify you to us. Cookies were designed to help a Web site recognize a user's browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was browsing the site. A cookie cannot be read by a Web site other than the one that set the cookie. Cookies can securely store a customer's password, personalize home pages, identify which parts of a site have been visited or keep track of selections, such as those selected in a "shopping cart." For instance, cookies allow us to pre-populate (or fill in) an email field with your email address if you revisit one of our Sites and place an order. When you place an order, we send a cookie to your hard drive to record the product name, category of product that you ordered, the amount paid, the order number and any referral codes.
No Personally Identifiable Information is recorded. When you click through to any one of our Sites from a promotional email, our Service Provider may send a cookie to your hard drive recording your IP address and other related information.
Clear GIFs: Some of our Service Providers may employ clear GIFs (also known as pixel tags, single pixel GIFs, web beacons or action tags) for our benefit to help us measure advertising effectiveness. Clear GIFs help us better manage content on our Sites by informing us of what content is effective. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of our users. The main difference between the two is that clear GIFs are invisible on the page and are much smaller, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Clear GIFs are not tied to your Personally Identifiable Information. Our Service Providers may use clear GIFs: (i) in HTML based emails to determine which emails have been opened by recipients; (ii) to record when products have been ordered from our Sites; and (iii) to track the visitor traffic on our Sites. These clear GIFs allow us to measure the usage of each of our Sites by our visitors and the effectiveness of certain communications and marketing campaigns. We may also use clear GIFs in a similar manner in our own emails and on our Sites.
Clear GIFs can "work with" existing cookies on a computer if they are both from the same Web site or advertising company. That means, for example, that if a person visited "www.companyX.com", which uses an advertising company's clear GIF, the Web site would match the clear GIFs identifier and the advertising company's cookie ID number, to show the past online behavior for that computer. This collected information can be shared with the advertising company. We may provide such information to our Service Providers but that information can only be used by our Service Providers for our benefit.
Within your Personal Account, you have the option to opt in for our additional services, which include a personal date reminder service and a free online address book. We use your contact information so that you may take full advantage of these interactive tools. You may view, edit or opt out of these additional services at anytime.

However, the use of this information by any purchasing or surviving entity would be governed by the terms of this Policy, as amended from time to time, including any amendment after such transaction. You, of course, will continue to have the right to opt-out of sharing your information with third parties.
We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information, after subpoena or written request, to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.
If you open a Personal Account with one of our FTD florist Online websites, your password will be your personal, secret entry code to that Site.

We recommend that you keep your password in a safe place and that you always sign off your account and close your browser window once you have finished your visit. These precautions will help prevent someone else from accessing your account, especially if you share a computer with other people or use a computer in a public place such as an Internet café or library.

- Vintage Costume Jewelry.
- Closure: Clip-on.
- Weight: Lightweight.
- Material: Gold Plated.
- Color: Gold.
- Size: Length: 7/8"; Width: 1/2"
Our vintage pieces are one-off jewelry pieces that we collect during our travels. Originating from the 1950s to the early 2000s, each exclusive piece is sourced, expertly cleaned, and then curated for our customers to enjoy. Since each piece is a one-of-one unique find, it is first-come, first-serve when making a purchase.
Jewelry Care Tips
14K Gold-Filled Jewelry - Affordable Quality
Our 14K Gold-Filled Jewelry is the perfect combination of quality and affordability. Unlike gold-plated jewelry that is electroplated over brass, gold-filled jewelry involves an outer layer of 14K gold that is pressure-bonded to the brass base metal and contains at least 5% gold by weight. This technique is more durable than plated and vermeil jewelry, providing a longer lifespan for your pieces with the right care. And, since it's safe for customers with metal allergies, you can shop with confidence. CARE INFORMATION FOR 14K GOLD-FILLED JEWELRY: Gold-Filled Jewelry is also super low maintenance and more durable than gold-plated or gold vermeil jewelry. Over time, your gold-filled piece may still need some care. We recommend using a wet cloth, gentle brush, or soap to clean your Admiral Row piece. Also, we still recommend avoiding contact with the water in the ocean or pool; and lotion, perfume, oils, or similar substances to ensure the longevity of your piece.
Gold Vermeil Jewelry - Gold Plated Over Sterling Silver
Our Gold Vermeil Jewelry is made of a thick layer of gold (2.5 microns) electroplated over sterling silver (.925) for maximum quality. As with gold-plated jewelry, we recommend avoiding contact with water, lotions, perfumes, oils, or similar substances to ensure the longevity of your piece. CARE INFORMATION FOR GOLD PLATED OVER STERLING SILVER JEWELRY: We recommend gold vermeil jewelry as the last item you put on when accessorizing your outfit. Remove your Admiral Row piece and run a soft cloth over it before bed. Please do not use any polish or soap to clean the jewelry, as it could strip the plating. Carefully store your jewelry to avoid tangling and scratches.
Stainless Steel Jewelry - Gold Plated Over Stainless Steel
Our stainless steel jewelry is crafted with a hypoallergenic grade 316L for greater resistance to tarnish. Considered one of the safest metals for sensitive skin, our stainless steel jewelry is plated using an IP Plating method, where two layers of material are applied in a vacuum chamber, ensuring that your piece will not change color or tarnish with normal use. Perfect for stackable rings, which have the most exposure to water and other substances. CARE INFORMATION FOR GOLD PLATED OVER STAINLESS STEEL JEWELRY: We recommend that stainless steel jewelry be the last item you put on when you accessorize your outfit. Remove your Admiral Row piece and run a soft cloth over it before bed. Do not use polish or soap to clean the jewelry, as it could strip the plating. Carefully store your jewelry to avoid tangling and scratches.
Gold Plated Jewelry - Gold Plated Over Brass
Our gold-plated jewelry, constructed with a brass foundation, boasts a generously thick layer of gold electroplated to ensure optimal durability. We utilize materials with the most robust plating possible to offer you a lasting shine. To maintain the luster and longevity of your chosen piece, it's essential to steer clear of water, lotions, perfumes, oils, and other harsh chemicals. After wearing, a gentle wipe with a dry cloth helps retain its shine. We recommend avoiding polishes or soaps that might compromise the plating. If you have sensitivities or allergies to brass, please consider this before purchasing. CARE INFORMATION FOR GOLD-PLATED JEWELRY OVER BRASS JEWELRY: For the best upkeep and durability of your Admiral Row gold-plated piece, please ensure it's the last accessory you put on when dressing. After your day, gently remove your jewelry and wipe it down with a soft cloth. Refrain from using polish or soap, as these might diminish the plating. For safekeeping, store your jewelry meticulously to prevent tangles and potential scratches.

Overrides are specific permissions designed to override a role in a specific context, allowing you to "tweak" your permissions as required.
For example, if users with the role Student in your course can usually start new discussions in forums, but there is one particular forum for which you want to restrict that capability, then you can set an override that PREVENTS the capability for Students to "Start new discussions".
Overrides can also be used to "open up" areas of your site and courses to give users extra permissions where it makes sense. For example, you may want to experiment giving Students the ability to grade some assignments.
The interface is similar to the one for defining roles, except sometimes only relevant capabilities are shown, and you will also see some capabilities highlighted to show you what the permission for that role would be WITHOUT any override active (ie when your override is set to INHERIT).

but the scoffer heeds no rebuke.*

those who open wide their lips bring ruin.b
4The appetite of the sluggard craves but has nothing,
but the appetite of the diligent is amply satisfied.
5The just hate deceitful words,
but the wicked are odious and disgraceful.
6Justice guards one who walks honestly,
but sin leads the wicked astray.c
7One acts rich but has nothing;
another acts poor but has great wealth.*
8People's riches serve as ransom for their lives,
but the poor do not even hear a threat.*
9The light of the just gives joy,
but the lamp* of the wicked goes out.d
10The stupid sow discord by their insolence,
but wisdom is with those who take counsel.
11Wealth won quickly dwindles away,
but gathered little by little, it grows.e
12Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a wish fulfilled is a tree of life.*
13Whoever despises the word must pay for it,*
but whoever reveres the command will be rewarded.
14The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life,
turning one from the snares of death.
15Good sense brings favor,
but the way of the faithless is their ruin.*
16The shrewd always act prudently
but the foolish parade folly.*
17A wicked messenger brings on disaster,
but a trustworthy envoy is a healing remedy.
18Poverty and shame befall those who let go of discipline,
but those who hold on to reproof receive honor.*
19Desire fulfilled delights the soul,
but turning from evil is an abomination to fools.
20Walk with the wise and you become wise,
but the companion of fools fares badly.f
21Misfortune pursues sinners,
but the just shall be recompensed with good.
22The good leave an inheritance to their children's children,
but the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the just.
23The tillage of the poor yields abundant food,
but possessions are swept away for lack of justice.*
24Whoever spares the rod hates the child,
but whoever loves will apply discipline.g
25When the just eat, their hunger is appeased;
but the belly of the wicked suffers want.
* [13:1] Another in the series on the household, this one on the relation of parents and children. See under 10:1. The scoffer in Proverbs condemns discipline and thus can never become wise. Wise adult children advertise to the community what they received from their parents, for children become wise through a dialectical process involving the parents. A foolish adult child witnesses to foolish parents.
* [13:2] One's mouth normally eats food from outside, but in the moral life, things are reversed: one eats from the fruit of one's mouth, i.e., one experiences the consequences of one's own actions. Since the mouth of the treacherous is filled with violence, one must assume that they will some day endure violence.
* [13:3] Preserve themselves: in Hebrew, literally to preserve the throat area, the moist breathing center of one's body, thus "life," "soul," or "self." There is wordplay: if you guard your mouth (= words) you guard your "soul." Fools, on the other hand, do not guard but open their lips and disaster strikes. A near duplicate is 21:23.
* [13:7] Appearances can be deceiving; possessions do not always reveal the true state of a person.
* [13:8] Related to v. 7. Possessions enable the wealthy to pay ransom but the poor are "protected" by lack of possessions: they never hear the threat of the pursuer. Cf. the use of the word "threat" in Is 30:17.
* [13:9] Light…lamp: symbols of life and prosperity; cf. 4:18–19.
* [13:12] "Tree of life" occurs in Gn 2–3, Prv 3:18; 11:30; 13:12; 15:4, and Rev 2:7; 22:2, 14, 19. It provides food and healing.
* [13:13] Must pay for it: lit., "is pledge to it," i.e., just as one who has pledged or provided surety for another's loan is obligated to that pledge, so one is not free of a command until one performs it.
* [13:15] As the behavior of the wise wins them favor that increases their prosperity, like Abigail with David in 1 Sm 25, so the way (= conduct) of the faithless ruins their lives.
* [13:16] Like 12:23 and 15:2, 3, the saying is about revealing and concealing. The wise reveal their wisdom in their actions whereas fools "parade," spread out their folly for all to see. The verb is used of vendors spreading their wares and of birds spreading their wings.
* [13:18] The saying plays on letting go and holding on. Wisdom consists in not rejecting discipline and being open to the comments of others, even if they are reproving comments.
* [13:23] An observation on the poor. The lands of the poor are as fertile as anyone's, for nature does not discriminate against them. Their problem is lack of justice, which puts their harvest at risk from unscrupulous human beings.
g. [13:24] Prv 19:18; 22:15; 23:13–14; 29:15; Sir 30:1, 8–13.

Recent updates
27 Apr 09 - The procedure set out here is applicable to Xp, Vista and Win7, regardless how many of them in the hard disk. No re-activation is needed but a reboot is generally necessary for the system to update its registry to account for a change in the hardware. Remember to remove the source disk or hide the source partition when booting the new traget partition or disk. Newer M$ systems uses a unique code for each partition identification which will be faithfully cloned. This can cause confusion to the OS if two identical partition codes are encountered. Generally the OS will disable the second partition and possibly invalidate its booting code.
30 Jan 07 - for reliably resizing XP partitions there are now free Linux Live CD on Gparted and Parted Magic
For a modern, informative and authoritative use of dd see AwesomeMachine's thread "Learn dd command"
13 May 07 - Section B added to include cloning the whole hard disk. I have since rewritten Section B as a separate thread in view of it being a general method which is recommended because it is a lot simpler but totally reliable. All you need is a hard disk exactly in size or just larger.
1 July 07 - A worked example to clone Windows Vista has been added in Post #55 of this thread
21 Oct 07 - Recommended block size now changed from 32768 to 32256 as the latter proves easier to finish with a full record in the last transfer.
Section A - Cloning a XP partition
For cloning Vista or an easier scheme see Section B
An installed Windows XP protects itself from being cloned even for the backup purpose. Specialised software like the Norton Ghost, Acronis or PowerQuest Drive Image has to be used so that the OS can be moved to a bigger hard drive in a disk upgrade.
Linuxs dd command also works the same way but this needed to be performed on the whole hard disk so that the MBR and partition table are cloned as one whole lot.
The method described below shows how Linux can be used to clone a XP partition. In the example here the source is a XP Pro partition in a 30Gb IDE drive recognised by Linux as hda1. For simplicity I used a disk with just one partition in it. The source XP partition has a SATA driver previously incorporated when installed. The target is a brand new unformatted 200 Gb SATA disk recognised by Linux as sda (older kernel may report hde).
To demonstrate the power of Linux I use only a Live CD from Knoppix 3.4. There is no other bootable Linux in the hard disk.
(1) Install both source IDE (hda) and SATA (sda) as internal hard disks into the PC and boot the computer up with Knoppix Live CD.
(2) Click Knoppixs terminal mode, type
to become the root user.Code:su
(3) Type
to check the hda and sda structures if needed (Recommended so that you know what you are doing).Code:fdisk -l
(4) Type
to write down the exact size of hda1, assumed NTFS type.Code:cfdisk /dev/hda
(5) Type
and create a primary sda1 partition, select file type NTFS (type No 7) and size identical to hda1, select it to be it bootable too, let it write the partition table and exit (recommend a reboot here to make the partition table permanent)Code:cfdisk /dev/sda
(6) Native copying by typing
The 32256 is the track size for 63 sectors each 512 byte. Progress is slower if bs is omitted and Linux would use the default block size 512.Code:dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/sda1 bs=32256
(7) When dd operation completes it will show the time taken on the screen. Power down, remove Knoppix, remove the source disk hda. (re-set the new disk as the master, no action is needed if it is in cable select mode for the Pata disk. Sata disk has no master/slave setting and the booting queue is controlled by the Bios only)
(8) Boot system up with a DOS floppy (with fdisk.exe inside) to restore MBR by typing
This works even on a SATA disk. Alternative boot up any Win2k or XP installation CD, go to the recovery console and issure commandCode:fdisk /mbr
(9) Remove DOS floppy and the SATA should be bootable with XP cloned.Code:fixmbr
Did this twice with a XP home and then a XP Pro. The above example has XP Pro in a 28.6Gb partition with 16.1 filled data. It took 4297 second or 72 minutes. On another 10.1Gb partition with XP home in 5.24 Gb data the time was 1409 seconds or 24 minutes. Naturally the two different licenses of XP booted successfully.
If the Linux has been installed from a hard disk and has the 2.6 kernel the time needed can be reduced considerably (about 50%.
The cloning rate for current versions Linux is about 45-55Mb/s for internal disks.
Section B - Cloning the whole disk containing either Win2k, XP, Vista or in any combination with or without other operating systems.
This method is highly recommended because it is the most reliable. The whole source disk is cloned to a target disk. The only essential requirement is the target disk must be as larger as the source disk, down to the exact number of sectors or simply just bigger.
The cloning has been 100% successful in the following applications
From a Pata to a Sata disk or the opposite way, both internal disks.
From an internal disk to an external USB hard disk or the opposite way
From a 2.5" latop disk to a 3.5" desktop hard disk (the opposite way not tried).
The number of operating systems and the types are immaterial to the cloning. I have the maximum 63 partitions in many disks cloned this way and every operating systems in the clone boots exactly as the original. The systems I cloned include a mixture of Dos, Windows (3x, 9x,2k, Xp & Vista), Linux, BSD and Solaris.
I am so confident with this method that on the completion of the cloning process I would remove the original source disk, put it away for safe keeping as the backup and start to use the newly cloned disk straight away, as I have never met a problem in upgrading my hard disk from 200Gb to 300Gb, then to 400Gb and finally to 500Gb.
I shall use the example of cloning an existing Pata hard disk known in Linux as hda into a newly purchased larger Pata disk hooked up as a USB hard disk. To Linux a USB disk belongs to the SCSI/Sata family and is called sda if it is the first one in the PC, otherwise it could be a sdb, sdc, sdd, sde etc.
Here is the simple steps
(1) Obtain a Linux Live CD. Any one will do because the dd command is an integral part of Linux terminal command. However for fast cloning please use the current version of Linux Live CD. Recommeded distros are Slax, Knoppix, Kanotix, Mepis, Fedora Live, Mandriva Live etc. Ubuntu is also suitable but it is slight more work to get root privilege.
(2) Obtain a hard disk enclosure and purchase a new hard disk is has a capacity larger than the original source disk. Cloning is just like putting a carbon paper between two sheets. It will not work out if the bottom sheet is physically smaller than the top sheet as part of the information cannot be recorded out. That will happen exactly to hard disk cloning. It is very simple. The partition table has been copied from a bigger original disk resulting some hard disk addresses cannot be found on the smaller cloned hard disk.
(3) Cut the seal from the new disk and install it into the hard disk enclosure as a raw disk. Hook it up to the PC as a USB hard disk. Boot up the PC with a Linux Live CD.
(4) Select terminal mode and become the superuser by issuing the terminal command
The standard practice in Linux Live CD is to waive the demand of root password which will be demand only if the Linux is installed into the hard disk, but there are always variations. If a root password is demanded take a look at the /home directory as the Live CD developer usually left a hint on how to get the root password. Some distros will work if you just press enter (i.e. blank password), other will accept "root" or "toor". I recommend Slax and its family distros because the root password is printed before the login.Code:su
(5) Check the hard disk naming notation in Linux by command
Linux call a Pata either hda, hdb, hdc or hdd. For Sata it can be sda, sdb, sdc, sdd, sde, sdf etc. An USB disk also follows the SCSI/Sata notation so it will be call sda if there is no Sata or SCSI disk in the system, otherwise it will take the name sdx where x is the next alphabet not yet taken. One can see the name of the newly hooked USB disk as it has no partition inside and the capacity should correspond to the size purchased. I shall assume this new target disk to be sda. Please adjust according to your own circumstance.Code:fdisk -l
(6) You can start the cloning process by one line of command
In the above "if" is the input device and "of" stands for the output device. The Block size parameter bs has been chosen to be one complete track of 64 sectors each 512 bytes. Omitting the bs parameter will cause dd to default to 512 bytes in each transfer and this slows down the cloning. The 32256 is about the optimum I have found.Code:dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/sda bs=32256
For AMD 3200 Athlon PC with 1Gb ram my cloning speed between internal disk is about 50Mb/s. If one disk is a USB this can drop to about 10Gb/s.
dd does not output any information until the process is completed. The flickering LED of the hard disk tells us dd is busy. On completion dd will always report the number of records, each equal to the the specified block size, transferred. Multiplying the record number with the block size should correspond to the capacity of the source hard disk.
I recommend removing the source disk, put it away for safe keeping as the backup, install the cloned disk in its place and start using the new disk right away.
For those who is not already aware dd stands for "data dump" meaning the binary pattern from a source disk is read and then written on the target disk. Technically it is impossible to clone a disk that is not a 100% carbon copy of the original.
The newly cloned disk's extra capacity over and above the original disk simply become the unallocated hard disk space which can be absorbed into the existing partitions by gparted or Parted Magic. It is recommended the current versions of these software to be downloaded and run as Live CD.
It has been my experience the whole hard disk cloning will always work on XP and Vista.
The current Live CD versions of gparted and Parted Magic are good for resizing XP. To resize Vista I recommend using its own internal resizer program which is faster and the success is guaranteed by M$.
It is recommended Vista to be cloned as the whole hard disk. This is because the current Vista has a new MBR and will conduct a check on the partition table. It can use a change to the partition table, between a reboot, as an excuse for the security risk to refuse to boot. Cloning the whole disk gives Vista no such excuse because the partition table isn't changed. Vista will still be able to detect the hard disk has been altered and demands an immediate reboot, same as XP. After a reboot Vista will work normally after the hard disk serial number has been updated.
