First of all to tell the truth everything about the tour was great that I expected. Like - You and your team was organized perfectly, Drivers were always ready at the time, polite, helpful, tolerant during traffic. They all drive professionally, Cars were always clean, Hotels that you choice were good. But the worst one is Gulaab Niwaas in Pushkar. There was hot water problem and not well- organized hotel team. Your team who meet us in Agra were great people. They were so funny, friendly and happy to see us. Actually we were very tired when we meet them. If we were not, we wished to spend much time with them. Please say my regards to them and amazing you!!! you are really successful at you job dear Manisha. You always give me trust before the tour and during the tour. You always called me to check everything and solved the problems quickly. I can't not explain that how important facility that is for a tourist and you did well. I know that you really worked so hard and that's why everything was perfect. and I am really so sorry not to meet dear Mansiha. But next time I will. I want to say many thanks for everything.

We had a wonderful trip to Kashmir. Everything that our travel agent (Miss Manisha) planned for us was perfect. Our hotels were great. The staff at the hotels were very pleasant and helpful .The rooms were great, locations were great. However the cuisine was not up to the mark.The stay at the houseboat was just awesome. The driver was always on time very helpful and very considerate. Thank you for this great experience.

What are your top 3 worst songs of the year?
Thought I'd start the day with positivity...
For me it's
3.Nickleback - Rockstar
Technically a 2007 song I know but it was still all over radio stations and the charts in 2008 so I'm counting it. Someone I work with said "I love this song. It's just so true". I still can't work out what the fuck she was on about.
2.Beyonce Knowles - If I Were a Boy
Just insipid and truly, truly horrible.
1. Ida Maria - I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked
It's just an utterly atrocious song made even worse by the fact you suspect a committee of people have come together and thought "let's have a reference to nudity and mild sexual content so alternative radio stations think it's dead edgy and play it all the fucking time. I listen to XFM for approximately 3 minutes a day ('cos I've an analogue clock-radio and there aren't really any other FM stations I want to listen to at 7:30 in the morning). I swear 3 days out of 5 that's the fucking song playing.
i kissed a girl
Your three songs and Bamnan's sprung immediately to mind when I saw this thread
I'll add that new Pink song on too - how the hell did that get to number one? The chorus makes me want to piss blood out of my eyes.
The most excellent thing
was seeing an interview with her in which she went on and on about the cathartic nature of writing and singing the lyrics to that song. Presumably not the 'na na na na na na na na na' line that makes up two-thirds of it though.

Client Testimonials
Hear from our satisfied clients
These are testimonials Carey & Associates P.C. has received from clients that we helped through sexual harassment cases, wrongful termination, age and gender discrimination cases and various other areas we cover in employment law in Connecticut. If you feel you need an employment lawyer to help you through your current situation, give us a call today at (203) 255-4150.
I was facing a difficult legal challenge with my employer, and I interviewed several firms until receiving a reference for Mark's practice from a top financial attorney. The differentiators that set both Mark and Kirsten apart from the rest were brilliantly clear from our first meeting. They listened to the details, both in the words, and in between them. They have true mastery of the law and case histories and they stay abreast of new and pending cases, decisions, and legislation, at the local and national level, as well as the social and political trends that influence the legal process. They have years of outstanding experience and performance. They personally know, and are adept at working with, the people and the delicate nuances of the processes, the mediation systems, the commissions and agencies, the courts, and all the other law firms. I was carefully guided and informed every step of the way and I was consistently impressed with the level of attention I received, the promptness of their actions and feedback, and the outstanding quality of the research and writing for the documents and communications they produced to fight for my case. Mark and Kirsten also forged genuine, caring professional relationships with me, a vital lifeline during the difficult and emotional moments that accompanied my case. When it came down to the tough negotiations, Mark was both strategically and tactically outstanding. I am completely satisfied with the results, grateful to have Mark, Kirsten and Diane as my friends, and most willing to recommend Mark's firm to anyone needing the BEST of employment law representation.K.G.
My experience working with Mark Carey was no less than life changing. His extensive legal knowledge and experience coupled with an uncompromising dedication to doing the most thorough work possible lead to an outcome that I could never have imagined. All done in a timely manner, he set forth open lines of communication that made me comfortable with every part of an uncomfortable legal process I was endeavoring to rectify. I thank him humbly and gratefully and have already recommended him to others as someone who I consider an expert in his field and will continue to do so.R.M.
When I was in need of an attorney's advice, Mark's expert knowledge on the issue in question and his sincere and strong interest in helping his clients was immediately evident. Mark is very personable and his direct and pragmatic approach to my specific issue proved invaluable. It felt more like I was asking a friend for advice than a lawyer I had just met. I've recommended Mark to many others and will continue to do so whenever I'm asked for the name of a great attorney.J.B.
Mark helped me as I was transitioning from a corporate world into retirement – his insights and guidance were invaluable. His contributions to me and my family are still being recognized 10 years later. He was extremely professional and detailed. I highly recommend Mark.S.G
A true professional!" "Mark provides great support, advise and a "Winning" strategy for his clients. He helps his clients understand the 360 view of a claim or legal case. Mark will guide you through the legal process, explain the law, strategy and risks in your case. More importantly, Mark has a genuine concern and interest in your overall success. I would refer Mark to any of my business clients or colleagues.A.C.
I was referred to Mark on an employment matter. He jumped right on the case and quickly brought himself up to speed. Mark works in a highly efficient and effective manner. He also knows his subject matter quite well. I found Mark would always consider the most practical and cost effective solutions to legal challenges, which I very much appreciated and respected. I would certainly recommend Mark for employment law work.M.F.
Mark was instrumental in obtaining a positive result in negotiations with my employer. His advise was insightful, he responded very quickly when documents need to be changed, and his knowledge of employment law was a useful resource. I would highly recommend Attorney Mark Carey to anyone undertaking employee/employer negotiations on either side of the table.V.G.
Mark Carey simply believed in me and my rights governed by the laws of this great nation, that protect the working class. His out of the box thinking and persistence allowed me to have the confidence to take on a corporation who did not follow the laws. My sincere gratitude to the Carey Law firm team for giving me the next chapter in my life and for sticking up for the worker who just wanted to always do his best in a corporate environment that was made for movies not reality.M.S.A.
Mark is a superb attorney who will fight for his clients' rights as long and as hard as they want him to … he has enormous knowledge and expertise and explains the law in a manner which helps employment law in the US make some sense. I HIGHLY recommend him.M.T.
I am so grateful to have been referred to Mark Carey. His impressive breadth of knowledge and expertise in the specific field of employment law was just what I needed and he championed my cause throughout the entire negotiation process. He was extremely attentive and was always available via telephone and/or email. What I appreciated most was his proactive nature. He kept everyone on their toes! I don't think I would have been as pleased with any other firm for my particular case.K.N.
Mark Carey is an employment attorney who is unlike most. He is big enough to take on the most difficult cases but small enough to take your personal needs and concerns into account. He has been specializing in employment law for many years and because of his vast experience he has been able to gain the respect of many of his constituents in his field. I can easily recommend Mark's work to any of my friends as I have done many times already.J.F.
I don't know how I can ever thank you enough for having been my advocate…your supreme lawyerly skills, your immeasurably hard work, your compassion and understanding, as well as your belief in me, your integrity and tenacity- all you have so unnecessarily given, have brought us to this final victory! I was so fortunate to have found you.U.M.
He is a good, kind, compassionate person that needs to be with us for a long time.D.W.
Exceptional at his task. Gets results for his clients, professionally and passionately.N.S.
I wanted to take the time and acknowledge to you my deepest appreciation for the work you performed on my behalf. While your firm was not located in my immediate area the representation rendered far exceeded that of any firm I have worked with locally or otherwise. This combined with the efficiency in your communication and caliber of your work made it possible to move forward to a beneficial conclusion rapidly and impiously. As issues developed I found your ethics and standards of professionalism a consistent pleasure.L.S.
As you know, I came to your office facing a very uncomfortable employment situation which needed to be addressed immediately. You essentially dropped everything and proceeded to work with me throughout the afternoon and late into that evening to resolve the situation. Not only did you go above and beyond my expectation, you did it in a very pleasant and courteous manner. Your representation of me in another employment situation for a new position-which turned out to be a very thorny negotiation- was also handled most impressively. When I was ready to fold, you had me stick to my guns and we got almost everything that I originally wanted. I like the efficient way in which you operate. You make excellent use of email and are almost always available for a quick phone call. From my viewpoint, client is service is definitely a priority for your firm. Your billing practices are very fair and I never felt 'nickel and dimed' by you unlike other lawyers with whom I have dealt. And, your office location is very convenient.R.N.
It's not illegal to treat good people poorly. It's perfectly acceptable to terminate someone because they are smarter or better qualified than their boss. Mark Carey was compassionate, tenacious, dedicated, brutally honest and willing to fight for me as far as I wanted to go. He also personally went out of his way to help me because he wanted to. The appreciation and gratitude I have for Mark and his staff is deep. Mark is a good guy who is willing to go to battle for you. I would use Mark again if I needed to.K.M.
Mark helped me negotiate a contract a couple of years ago with a great result. He has a real ability to simplify terms in a way to include maximum cooperation and in the process became a good friend. I highly recommend his work!J.C.

I assured them that I would make some cookies that would make them feel good instead. Through tears they reluctantly gave in and stopped driving me mad with their blubbering. I understand how they feel totally so disregard my coldheartedness. I appreciate that I can empathize with them to a greater extent.
The hard part is just whipping up some cookies. The universe smiled on me today as I mixed and stirred and got really lucky. The keys to gluten free cooking are to throw caution to the wind and never expect what you are making to come out as you planned. Good or bad.
I wanted sweet and fluffy with crispy edges. I have discovered while making sauce with homemade ricemilk that it gets really thick. That rice keeps getting thicker even when you think it can't absorb any more water. More on this in a minute.
Most recipes for cookies call for the following:
baking powder
a gluing agent (usually this is gluten in wheat flours)
some kind of oil or fat
I poured what I thought looked like a cup and a half of white rice flour in a bowl. I then added a half cup or so of brown rice flour. No reason for these really other than they are mild tasting and what I had in my cupboard. I had already made a cup of rice then made it into rice milk.
Its super easy to make your own rice milk (thanks to Scott Jureks recipe on his blog!). One cup of cooked white rice to 3 cups water. A bit of salt and sugar and I put in vanilla today. Then you blend the hell out of it. Blend until you can't stand the sound of the dang blender anymore! About 4-5 minutes gets it mixed well. I then strain it to make sure its not gritty. Blended for this long though makes pretty smooth milk.
Preheat the oven to 350. Oil or grease a cookie sheet. My cookie sheet is very dark in color.
Back to the cookies. I poured about 1/3 cup of sugar into the bowl. I know its a lot. Its the only sweetner I had. It adds bulk and when melted helps hold the cookies together. I suppose if you use Agave then you want to cut back the amount of rice milk you use.
I blended 2 bananas with about half cup of rice milk, a splash of vanilla, and a one second pour or splash of canola oil, while I added some xanthan gum to the dry ingredients. Maybe a tablespoon. It will help hold the cookies together. I then added some aluminum free baking powder to the dry ingredients in my bowl.
I poured a little of the banana smoothie mix into the dry ingredients and mixed and added more until I had a sticky consistency that would ball up on a spoon but just sticky enough not to be able to handle with my hands without making a wicked mess! The banana and rice milk mixture made thick and fluffy lovelyness. I think it was much like whipping up eggs.
Drop a spoonful of the mix and smooth out the edges a bit. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 13-15 minutes. Mine actually browned on the edges!!
The bottoms even came out a nice golden brown.
Some things to take note of. It was hot today but not terribly humid. I mixed all the dry ingredients together in one bowl and poured a blended mix of wet ingredients into the dry. I have found that the gluten free flour will clump if you don't add all the wet to the mix at once. Make sure the pan is greased well. I think that the simplicity of just using rice flour may have added to the nice texture and predictability of how it would turn out.
I know its not a recipe but I have learned that if you know the basic ingredients and approximate proportions you have a pretty good chance of making something edible. And once again, don't expect it to come out the same way twice!
Anyone have gluten free cooking they want to share? Suggestions are always welcomed here!
So in other news, I won a messenger bag from Clif Bar a couple weeks ago.
Rickshaw bags to promote Clif's 2 Mile Challenge and had a limited number of these Zero Messenger bags made. None of the bags look exactly alike because the the Zero line uses all the scraps that are created during production in the bags. Hence the name Zero, as in zero waste. How cool is that!
If you don't know a whole lot about Clif, I encourage you to read this recap of a tour that Donald over at Running and Rambling wrote up. He was a lucky lucky duck and got to tour the Berkley headquarters!
When I recieved the bag it didn't have the strap attached. Not to worry though, the bag was filled with Clif Goodies!!! They really hooked us up. My dear hubby got the bars and I got more than a dozen shot blocks and as many gels too. They contacted Rickshaw and had them send me strap. I was rather excited about this and hoping that it would be sent in the reusable packaging that I had heard they used.Look what the FedEx guy delivered today! Its a reusable shipping bag made from scraps of their fabric.
It had a return label and directions as to how to use it. It also held a handwritten note letting me know to call if I needed anything. The wait for the strap was totally worth it! I am sending some bag bling to them in the return bag when I send it back tomorrow and my own hand written note stating my gratitude for what they do. What cool companies to have had the pleasure of dealing with. Not to mention I like how Clif Products make me feel. Very easy to digest and the Shot block packaging rocks!
Ok enough gushing. Thanks Clif and Rickshaw!
I have got to get back to my rice pasta the boys requested. The trick to rice pasta is to rinse in cold water after straining after boiling. Just so you know! Seriously, if you have any cooking tips, do share!!

Is it just me, or is The Big Bang Theory not anywhere nearly as funny as it used to be?
I used to go out of my way to make time to watch new episodes. Last season had a few laugh out loud episodes, but the majority of them made me giggle rather than laugh and there were too many that did not even make me giggle.
The first two episodes of the new eighth season had me giggling here and there, without any guffaws. The third episode was downright painful to watch and was not funny at all. This comedy is no longer comedic. The seventh season finale set things up for the writers to rock the boat a bit — I was glad to see them giving themselves the opportunity to redefine the core relationships and allow Sheldon to grow as a character, especially since the multi-year renewal that they scored gives them three more guaranteed seasons to explore how these relationships can grow. What happened after that? The eighth season premiere effectively hits the reset button and we're all back to the same ol' status quo. Now I hear an upcoming episode gives Stuart his comic store back. Another reset button. Yawn.
CBS moving the show to Monday nights also hasn't helped at all because I keep forgetting that it's on. Old dog, new tricks: it became a family ritual years ago to sit down and watch this together on Thursday nights, so I keep looking for it on Thursday, not Monday.
A few days ago, my wife was watching a rerun of a second season episode on TNT. Turns out it was an episode that I had never seen. I happened to be walking through the room on my way to doing something else, but two minutes of witty dialog made me laugh so much that I had to sit down and watch the rest of the episode with her. This is back when the writers were writing for characters, not caricatures.
The contrast between the enjoyable experience of watching that single old second season episode versus the horrible experiences of watching the three episodes of the new eighth season is so sharp that I have to wonder what has gone wrong in the interim. Are the jokes tired? Are the writers tired? Has the multi-year renewal made them way too complacent? Or have I just gotten tired of it? As annoying as these characters can be, I used to be able to find aspects of all of them that I liked. Now I can't. Sheldon and Howard were both so damned unlikeable in last Monday's episode that I seriously considered just turning it off. The one thing that kept my finger off the off switch was my realization that the episode was execrable enough to give me something to complain about here. Comedies are supposed to make you laugh, not wince, and I've been wincing way too much. Honestly, if last Monday's episode was the first Big Bang Theory episode I had ever seen, I would've turned it off halfway through and never bothered to watch another episode.
I'll see how I react next Monday (or whenever I remember to watch next week's new episode), but the way this season is going I don't have much hope for the show. The multi-year commitment that CBS made in March means that the writers and producers do not really need to worry about ratings again until the 2016-2017 season. That's a damned shame, because it removes the corresponding level of pressure to produce a high-quality product.

The Times Higher should report on the current differences between the University and College Union and Into University Partnerships, not join the battle. Yet the opening sentence of your report talks of a "takeover" as part of a "wave", while a subsequent sentence talks of Into having other institutions "in its sights".
These are inflammatory metaphors: Into is not taking over universities or drowning them or shooting them. It is entering into voluntary partnerships, putting in capital and managerial expertise that the universities evidently don't have but would themselves supply if they did. As you yourselves admit, although hiding it in your third paragraph, the arrangement is "to share the funding and profits" of a joint venture, and also entails sharing the risks.

Nairobi: The United Nations has made
its first aid delivery to a rebel-held Somalia region after
the insurgents lifted a ban on the operations of foreign aid
agencies, a spokeswoman said on Sunday.
The UN children agency airlifted five metric tonnes
of food and medicines for malnourished children to Baidoa, a
town in central Somalia under the control of the Al
Qaeda-inspired Shebab rebels.
"It was successful and it was a good step towards
airlifting supplies into Somalia. It is the first in two
years," said Iman Morooka, the UNICEF spokeswoman for Somalia.
Morooka said the Shebab "have given approval and
gave unhindered access, and it was smooth operation".
The delivery was made on Wednesday and UNICEF said
it was ready to take more supplies to southern and central
regions of Somalia controlled by the hardline rebels.
The Shebab on July 6 appealed for help for
thousands of people devastated by a severe drought that has
hit the Horn of Africa region, saying they would allow aid
through to their fiefdoms.
Two years ago, the Shebab expelled foreign aid
groups, accusing them of being Western spies and Christian
crusaders, and imposed draconian rules on the operations of
relief groups.
Last week, the World Food Programme, which pulled
out from southern Somalia in early 2010, said it was
considering resuming operations in the area.

Glenn Reynolds offers advice to the Democrats.
Among his subjects are: Intelligence Failures (he thinks this is a no-go), the Saudi Connection ("lots of room" to criticize the Bush administration), Homeland Security (Reynolds focuses on the armed pilots program), Communications (which means media concentration), and lowering the drinking age. I don't know if Reynolds is attempting to be ironic in this last one, but, basically, he thinks the Democrats should be coming up with positions of their own and not just criticisms of the Republicans.
I have an idea for the Democrats. Things that, apparently, Reynolds hasn't thought of. How about running on the economy? Running on the idea of putting people back to work? How about running on health care? If everybody in America has the right to a lawyer when they're accused of a crime, shouldn't they have the right to a right to a doctor when they're sick? (Don't go running to a copy of the Consititution saying "Look, Partha, there is no *right* to a doctor written here!" -- I'm asking, shouldn't there be?). How about running on the concept of an open government that works for all its citizens and doesn't keep secrets from them? How about running on the slogan "Put People First" and insuring the United States is the United States for all its citizens.
This is a winning platform.

This is a wetlands not too far from my house. Inverness actually has quite a few of these areas. I love the Adirondack chair and bench in the snow. Do you see them?

I suspect people do some sun set watching from the chairs or perhaps some fishing.ReplyDelete
I looked at the larger photo to see them better. I bet its nice to while away some time there. Great picture.ReplyDelete
Love these two snow photos - and the chair. Neat new camera, Neva!ReplyDelete
yes I can see.ReplyDelete
Lots of snow, beautiful image.
j'aime tes photos sous la neige, elles me font rêver, il doit y avoir un silence total.ReplyDelete
I like your photographs under snow, they make about me dream, there must be a complete silence.
I love your snow shots, but I guess enough's enough; you have had a long cold winter. Great new camera.ReplyDelete
I enlarged the photo to see it better... it's beautiful!ReplyDelete

Even without enlarging one can clearly see them.ReplyDelete
What a magnificent landscape.
Great photo. I would love to sit there and just enjoy the view.ReplyDelete
Great shot! Looks like a nice place to enjoy any season.ReplyDelete
More snow on the way?
It look a great place to be... I love you snow pictures from the comfort and warmth of my chair .. ;o)ReplyDelete
Nice shot Neva. It is so nice that the green areas are preserved. Many of ours have been obiterated or had industries built on themReplyDelete

Liverpool FC's Daniel Agger could be out for up to four weeks after fracturing a rib in Sunday's 4-0 Barclays Premier League defeat to Tottenham.
The Denmark defender sustained the injury when he fell heavily in the first half and had to be substituted before half-time.
However, there are contrasting reports on the extent of the injury.
Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish said: "Daniel has got a fractured rib, so he's struggling a bit."
However, the version offered by Agger's agent Per Steffensen differs slightly.
"It's the worst possible news. He has broken two ribs, and he must keep still for four weeks," Steffensen said.
He added: "Daniel is way down now and I certainly sympathise with him.
"He will miss the two (international) matches against Cyprus and Portugal and there is a match against Manchester United he also misses. It's insanely annoying."

While walking home after he had been drinking a 31-year-old man caused damage to three houses in a Portadown street, Craigavon Court heard last Friday.
Mindaugas Eidukas of George Street admitted unlawful damage to a door at one house, a window at a second house and a door knocker at a third.
For each of the offences he was fined £100. He was also fined £100 for preventing a meter from registering electricity at George Street.
The court heard that on August 24 police received a report of damage to houses in Coronation Street. They found the defendant just a few minutes from the scene.
A door was damaged and a door knocker was broken.
The meter at his home had been tampered with so that it did not register electricity.
A defence barrister said he was "incredibly drunk" and had no recollection of events. He could offer no explanation for causing the damage.
She added that he had been in constant employment and has a family in Lithuania. This was totally out of character. He was not a man prone to violence

An intelligent automatic document classification algorithm uses an expandable library to remember different types of documents. The library can be pre-programmed by the company administrator during configuration then added to as circumstances dictate.
By remembering typical user actions and settings, such as image pre-processing type, export format and destination for result files, MFPs can automatically suggest actions designed to streamline the user experience.
For example, if a user previously saved an "Invoice" type document in "Searchable PDF" format and sent it to "firstname.lastname@example.com", the MFP will suggest these options the next time an Invoice is scanned in.

When I first added "Zip Lining" to the bucket list, I expected to do something a little less crazy than doing it over a pit of hungry alligators – But where is the fun in that?!
It's called the "Screamin' Gator Zip Line" and can be found at Gatorland, Orlando, Florida. I actually came across it whilst searching for deals on Groupon.
We were on holiday with David's parents and sister at the time so they all joined us to the park. His parents decided to give the zip lines a miss though.
David, Susan and I headed along to get out kit on before starting the zip line course.
It started with a few small zip lines then onto the main event.
The zip line over a pit of hungry alligators.
I have to say there was no fear with this one. The staff at Gatorland were so professional, funny and great company, I'm sure they'd have put even mum at ease on this one.
Is Zip lining over alligators on your bucket list? If not I'd suggest adding it 🙂
Happy bucket listing.

Troubleshooting RT
I'm starting this section on the wiki in order to try to gather some of the various troubleshooting information that I've been running across from various locations. The reason I want to regurgitate it here is that I am finding many of the links from the search engines are starting to get stale and many of them are dead-ending. Hopefully we can preserve them in this repository.

Can't locate object method "boot" via package "mod_perl"
I recently ran into the following error:
[Tue Jun 21 09:09:30 2005] error Can't locate object method "boot" via package "mod_perl" at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache/Constants.pm line 8. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache.pm line 6. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache.pm line 6.

[Tue Jun 21 09:09:30 2005] error Can't load Perl file: /usr/share/request-tracker3.4/libexec/webmux.pl for server rt.company.com:0, exiting...
This was just after some updates to a Debian Stable installation. I read several posts about some problems with mod-perl2 on Apache2 and the suggested fix was to do a search and replace to change all occurances of "Apache::" to "Apache2::"
I really wanted to avoid code mods so I went for the lowest common denominator. I renamed the old Apache.pm and then just linked /usr/lib/perl5/Apache.pm to /usr/lib/perl5/Apache2.pm. This got the server back up and working. I suspect that there will be issues with some module specifics later but I am hoping that the RT Dist will also come up with ways to cope with that internally.
Change occurrences in which files?
Can't locate Apache/Response.pm in @INC ... Can't load Perl file: bin/webmux.pl for server localhost:0, exiting...
Found this issue in Aurora SPARC Linux 2.0 (Fedora Core 3 for SPARC) when trying to install... turns out that after installing all the modules for rt, I still had an ancient verion of CGI.pm, which was not intended to correctly detect the mod_perl2 modules vs. regular mod_perl. Upgrading CGI via CPAN quickly resolved this problem after an embarrassing number of hours troubleshooting.
If Apache refuses to start after you add PerlRequire bin/webmux.pl to your config and you're sure you've got a valid mod_perl2 installation, try upgrading CGI to the latest version.
- Ben
Can't locate Apache2.pm in @INC ... Can't load Perl module Apache2 for server localhost:0, exiting...
A transitional version of
mod_perl2 (version 1.99) broke many things on its way to being stable. Some instructions scattered throughout this wiki (including some on this page) still refer to the
Apache2 package when configuring the Apache web server. This package has since become stable and usable, but compatibility options are no longer necessary if the applications that depend on them have been updated to use
Apache2 modules instead of
Apache modules. RT versions since 3.4.4 (feel free to correct this if I'm mistaken) have been updated to take advantage of
Apache2 with
mod_perl2, so references to it in the Apache configuration are no longer necessary.
Making certain you avoid using the following lines in the RT section of your Apache configuration will eliminate this error.
PerlModule Apache2
PerlModule Apache::compat

Search Page Fails, Other Things Work, after Perl update
After installing a Perl security upgrade (via RPM from "up2date" on RHEL 4), the RT search query builder fails with the following error:
Can't locate object method "new" via package "RT::Interface::Web::QueryBuilder::Tree" at /home/local/rt-3.4.4/share/html/Search/Build.html line 509.
Everything had previously been working, and the Perl version was 5.8.5 before and after the upgrade -- all that changed was the build number, so one would think that wouldn't break much.
Reinstalling DBIx::SearchBuilder as recommended elsewhere in this Wiki for a similar problem did not help.
It took a lot of digging, but the root cause of this problem was found to be an error in RedHat's building of the Perl binary, in that they left out support for "weak references", a feature that had been in their previous build. The CPAN-installed Tree::Simple package, used by RT::Interface::Web::QueryBuilder::Tree, could not construct an instance of itself because it had previously been configured to support weak references. The problem is also described in another web article.
I fixed the problem by deleting (from /usr/lib/perl/site_perl/5.8.5/) the "Tree" directory, then using CPAN to reinstall the packages therein. Apparently the reinstallation detected that weak references were no longer valid, and configured Tree::Simple appropriately. I then restarted Apache to make the change effective. You may have to reinstall more than just this one module; I'm not enough of a Perl expert to be sure, and I had already reinstalled other Perl packages in unsuccessful attempts to fix this problem. Thus, I can't be sure if the last change, had it been the only change, would have done the job by itself.
Same problem, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4), same solution, excepting that after deletion of the module, I reinstalled it with:
<installdir>/rt3/sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-mysql --with-fastcgi --install
(Adjust options to suit, obviously...)
- Benji Wakely
Same problem with Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4) but using the script did not work. The solution is to go to cpan and download Tree-Simple-1.14.tar.gz. The newst Tree-simple-1.16 will not compile on RHEL4 with updates but 1.14 compiled and works no problem.
--Piotr Misztal
RT will not send mail
This is related to the Search Page fails... problem above in that it is another case where missing weak references make RT crash.
RT 3.6.1 would not send mail because of the references to Scalar::Util::weaken in the code. On a RH AS 4 system, the Scalar::Util module exists but the weaken() function is defined elsewhere in an XS library. The library could be installed via CPAN with
perl -MCPAN -e 'install "G/GB/GBARR/Scalar-List-Utils-1.18.tar.gz"'
Syslog error 'MDA returned nonzero status 75' when using fetchmail, procmail or similar
Email was no longer being forwarded to the RT queue giving the above error in /var/adm/messages (logged by syslog). I had recently changed the name of one of the queues.
This is because I had not updated the .fetchmailrc file to reflect the change in queue name. So when the rt-mailgate was called it was going to the old queue which no longer existed.
If you are using a program such as fetchmail, procmail, maildrop etc. to deliver email to your queue, check the commandline arguments to see if they are still configured for the old queue.
This may seeme to be a no-brainer for many of you but it was driving me crazy for hours!
A good way to debug this is to run your rt-mailgate incant by hand from the terminal and pipe a single mail into it. By adding the
--debug flag, you can get verbose output about what's going wrong. One cause of this can be Apache redirecting rt-mailgate's request somewhere.
'The page cannot be found' error in Internet Explorer when using SSL connections
IE has problems with certain types of SSL connections, especially during POST and GET operations (i.e. updating a ticket). The following in the mod_ssl FAQ gives a solution.

Initiation error when starting httpd service, Starting httpd: No root path(s) specified at /usr/bin/webmux.pl line 98
I just wanted to add to this. At least in my case (Linux OS, apache-perl, Apache1/modperl1), this error was being caused by the following line in webmux.pl:
rmtree([ bsd_glob("$RT::MasonDataDir/obj/*") ], 0, 1);
"$RT::MasonDataDir/obj" is a directory, in my case it is this:
On startup, there are no non-hidden files/directories in this directory. Apparently bsd_glob returns the empty result, and rmtree chokes on that with the "No root path(s)" error. As a workaround, I edited webmux.pl to replace that rmtree line with this:
my @adir = bsd_glob("$RT::MasonDataDir/obj/*");
if (@adir) { rmtree([ @adir ], 0, 1); }
That got rid of the "No root path(s)" error message.
3.6.0RC3 has it fixed.
Continuous login
I encountered a problem with RT asking me to log in every time I clicked a link. After doing some research, it seemed that the cookie was being sent and set properly. There were two possibilities mentioned:
- A MySQL 5.x issue: check your mysql error logs. The session module has been seen to try to connect as rt_user@localhost or email@example.com instead of rt_user@''
- A table structure issue: take a look at the "sessions" table in the RT database. There should be a column named "a_session". This column must have the type "longblob" not "longtext". Also note that if there are any records in the table, the entire table should be emptied (either before or after making the change), otherwise the problem will persist.
I personally hit the table structure problem while installing RT 3.6.3 on Gentoo Linux, but since fixing that, everything has been fine.
- kwgagel
I hit this problem after upgrading from 3.8.4 to 3.8.7. Kevin Falcone from Best Practical suggested the removal of my /local/html/autohandler file. I renamed the file and restarted the httpd service and the problem vanished.
I hit the table structure issue with 3.6.5 on Fedora 8, deleting the table and recreating as longblob fixed. Thanks Dave.
I found the same thing after running the upgrade script from 3.6.1 >> 3.8.2, change the data type in the db and set the default value to NULL and now is working. Thanks Dave!
-- [sorry the html goes nuts here: will fix shortly. Rob101]
The MySQL SQL I used to correct this problem with RT 3.6.7 on Gentoo was:

Sorry if dumping this here was too verbose!
Rob101 --
It sure wasn't Rob. I confirmed that this was the answer to a problem for me going from 3.6.x to 3.8.x ... it's feasible that something about my upgrade broke the database upgrade scripts. Either way -- if you are having problems with RT logins happening too much -- the above seems to be the fix! -- MGMead (PS - I cleaned up the MYSQL session so you can read it more easily)
Happenned to me after restoring a (Postgres) dump from another computer (same RT version, same PG version). Restarting Apache was the solution. RT 4.0.7 on Postgres 9.1, apache2/modperl.

The dreadful MySQL server has gone away error
I was seeing this error almost every time I create a ticket in one of my queues. If I insisted at least 5 times, the ticket was finally created.
Searching about this I discovered that the most common reason for this kind or error is data base corruption. I tried checking, repairing and optimizing the database using the mysqlcheck command, but none solved the problem. To be sure I dumped all rt3 database (using mysqldump) e recreated the whole database, but that too did not solve the problem. Nevertheless, some people really got rid of this error using those methods and those could work for you.
After enabling debug logging on RT_SiteConfig, I saw that the error was occurring much sooner than I thought, because the web interface was only showing the error when the Apache::Session::Lock::MySQL object was being destroyed.
Actually, the problem was occurring right after an Scrip SendMail action and in the logs I could see RT complain about sendmail exiting with status 16384. I checked the scrip saw that the template used had the following in it's first line: To: firstname.lastname@example.com;firstname.lastname@example.com
I removed the ";email@example.com" part and the problem was gone. I found that to be super strange and totally unrelated, but if you got that error, don't forget to check your templates. I guess there is really a reason for the SendMail Scrip Action not being enabled by default.

Config file /etc/request-tracker/RT_SiteConfig.pm is locked
(BTW are all of these Perl-related? Or are we just putting them under that heading by default?)
Got this error ("Config file /etc/request-tracker/RT_SiteConfig.pm is locked") when I fired up request-tracker this morning. Since I had no idea what the cause could be, I asked Google. All the forum entries it pointed me to said that it's because request-tracker can't access MySQL. But on my system this wasn't the case -- MySQL was running fine.
Checking the logs, I found this intriguing message:
The WebBaseURL config option requires no trailing slash (/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.0/RT/Config.pm:708)
I checked my RT_SiteConfig.pm and, sure enough, I had a trailing slash in the URL. After removing it and restarting Apache, the error went away.

I have really struggled with what Harper should be for Halloween. Silly, I know. But it's her FIRST Halloween, I want her to be something cute and creative. Well, I couldn't come up with anything creative because she can't really sit up on her own. Next year though, next year! So I'm settling for cute! Here is it....I can't wait to get it in and see it on her!
Her treat bag! Calm down, I will get it embroidered with her name on it! (I know you were worried!)
Hope everyone is enjoying this WONDERFUL weather we have been having in our neck of the woods! Fall is upon us!!

The soul sound will be resonating around Carnegie Hall in Dunfermline next week as two of the world's best soul musicians come to town.
The title 'Superstars of Soul' is completely true and this show offers exactly what it says on the tin.
It's definitely not one to be missed by soul fans, when Ben E. King and Jimmy James come to Fife on Thursday, August 29.
The singers will be performing together in this stunning new show, accompanied of course by The Vagabonds.
And Jimmy recently took time out to speak to The Press ahead of the date in Dunfermline.
He said he's looking forward to being north of the border.
"I love coming to Scotland for sure," he said.
"It's one of my favourite countries.
"I love it, you always get a good reaction and reception from folk up there."
The Jamaican singer is really excited about this latest venture, as although he regularly continues to perform live on stage these days, this current tour of the UK is extremely special to him.
He continued: "I have been on the road all along, but to be back with Ben E. King, that's just an honour.
"They asked 'would I like to' join him, and I said 'I'd love to!'
"I'm just so thrilled and excited to be doing this tour.
"It was hearing Ben E. sing that made me want to sing.
"When this came about you can't imagine how I felt.
"This was the man I heard sing tracks like 'Stand By Me; and who inspired me.
"It was something great I'm not going to turn down.
"A mutual friend, Les Baker, was on tour last year with Ben E, driving him around.
"He invited me to the O2 in London for the show and I got to say hi and meet Ben.
"We hit it off.
"Then it was after that I got a call asking would I be willing to tour with him for this show.
"I jumped at it and said 'I'd love to!'"
It's no wonder Jimmy is delighted to play alongside Ben E. King as he's one of the defining soul singers of all time.
From his early days as the lead singer of The Drifters, through to his solo work, Ben E. King's music has been of great importance to millions around the world.
The musician's many hits include 'Spanish Harlem', 'Save the Last Dance for Me', 'Don't Play that Song', 'I Who Have Nothing', 'Don't Take Your Love From Me' and of course the legendary, multi-million selling 'Stand By Me'.
This, his most famous track, was re-released in 1986 when it was used as the soundtrack to the film of the same name, starring River Phoenix and Corey Feldman.
As a Drifter and a solo artist, King achieved five number one hits.
He also earned 12 Top 10 hits and 25 Top 40 hits from 1959 to 1986.
But it wasn't just Ben E. King who enjoyed a long and successful career - Jimmy has had one too.
Performing with live band, The Vagabonds, Jimmy has had hits with the likes of 'I'll Go Where the Music Takes Me', 'Come to Me Softly' and 'Now is the Time'.
They also released a cover of 'Red Red Wine'.
The Vagabonds were originally formed in 1960 and disbanded in 1970.
In 1974, Jimmy, who owned the name, reformed the band.
And over the years he's toured the UK with Foundations frontman, Clem Curtis and took part in a show called 'The Soul Explosion'.
So with this brand new tour, what can people expect from the 'Superstars of Soul' show?
"Sing-a-long stuff, stuff people know and will get up and sing and dance to and just have a good time," said Jimmy.
"I want the audience to let their hair down and enjoy themselves."
With Ben E. King having a career which has spanned six decades, and Jimmy being around for many years himself, what is it about soul music that keeps them going?
And why soul music, rather than any other musical style?
Jimmy told The Press: "It's heartfelt, it comes from the soul.
"It's almost like one to one music.
"Whenever I'm on stage I'm singing the songs but want people to realise even though there's hundreds there I'm singing to each and every one individually.
"That's what it means to me.
"It's about connecting musically one to one."
And with such a long career history, did Jimmy ever think when he started out as a soul singer back in the *s, he'd still be performing to crowds around the globe at this age?
"No, I never expected that at all," he laughed.
"I have been so fortunate that I have been blessed with a gift, I have kept my voice in reasonably fair shape and my health has been okay, but I never expected it."
What's been the highlight of his career?
He added: "I've had so many, it's difficult to choose.
"Probably this new tour and I think the one that stands out most of all was years ago when I was invited to support Sammy Davis Junior in London."
Ben E. King and Jimmy James are live onstage in 'Superstars of Soul' at Carnegie Hall, Dunfermline on Thursday, August 29.

Last Saturday's game against Crook Town marked the end of an era for Whitley Bay Football Club and their long-serving physio Glen Martin.
After 13 years and some 650 games at Hillheads and venues across the country, including of course three appearances at Wembley, Glen has decided to retire.
The hugely respected and popular Glaswegian has been involved in local non-league football for 25 years, having started at Dunston under then manager Peter Quigley, where he treated players such as former Newcastle United defender and now BBC Newcastle summariser John Anderson.
After four years with the 'Fed' he moved to Croft Park, where he worked alongside managers including John Burridge, Harry Dunn, Alan Shoulder, Paul Baker and then John Charlton.
When Charlton was appointed for a brief spell as boss at Hillheads in 2003, Glen came with him and was arguably Charlton's best signing for Whitley.
The next 13 years included the greatest period in Whitley's history and no small part in that success has been down to Glen, whose expert guidance ensured that the players were in the peak of condition for all three FA Vase Finals at Wembley. He has become part of what he calls the Hillheads family.
While he has lived the dream of every physio by taking care of players under the Wembley Arch, he never had anything serious to deal with in those Vase Finals and he thoroughly enjoyed the experience on all three occasions.
There have of course been serious injuries that Glen has had to deal with, the most recent being when Craig McFarlane suffered a broken ankle at West Allotment on Good Friday.
As well as looking after the Bay squad, Glen was often to be seen assisting with the treatment of injured players from the opposition.
During his 13 years at Hillheads, Glen has seen Whitley win the FA Vase three times, the Northumberland Senior Cup twice and the Northern League title once. That's quite some record!
Bay football secretary Derek Breakwell said "Glen is a top man, he's been a great servant to Whitley Bay, doing a terrific job and we all enjoy his company."
Ahead of Saturday's game against Crook Town, a special ceremony took place on the pitch, when Glen, a connoisseur of red wine, was presented with a wine decanter from club chairman Paul McIlduff, assisted by Northern League Chairman Mike Amos.
As for the game itself, Glen was able to enjoy a quiet afternoon with none of the players requiring treatment.
There will be one more occasion for fans to say goodbye to Glen when the club holds its annual presentation night at the Seahorse Clubhouse on Saturday evening, starting at 7.30pm. All Whitley Bay supporters are invited to attend.

James Kubilus, Thomas F Linsenmayer; Nerve induced gene expression in corneal epithelial cells during embryonic development. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2014;55(13):2199.

The dense network of nerves that innervates the corneal epithelium helps to maintain vision by protecting the cornea from damage through multiple mechanisms. These include transduction of painful noxious or damaging stimuli as sensations of pain, increasing the production of tears, and releasing factors that maintain the cornea in a healthy state. The loss of these nerves can lead to the impairment of normal vision. The nerves that transduce these sensations are thought to terminate as simple free nerve endings in the apical cell layer of the corneal epithelium. However recent studies suggest there is a complex functional interaction between these cells and nerves. Therefore, these studies sought to determine the molecular mechanisms involved in the functional interaction between corneal epithelial cells and corneal nerves.
The apical epithelial cells in embryonic chicken corneas were isolated by impression cytology. RNA was isolated from pre- and post-innervation stage corneas and compared by microarray analysis. Differentially expressed genes were functionally grouped using GO and DAVID analyses. Their expression was then further characterized using qRT-PCR, in situ hybridization, western blot and immunohistochemistry.
Microarray followed by bioinformatic analyses demonstrated that subsets of genes were differentially expressed in the apical epithelial cells during the normal developmental interaction of corneal epithelial cells and nerves. A subset of genes not previously described in the cornea, but known to function during neural development and synapse interaction was upregulated in the apical epithelial cells. Further characterization of these genes suggested their involvement in the interaction between nerves and corneal epithelial cells.
The initial developmental interaction between the apical corneal epithelial cells and corneal nerves induces changes in gene expression in the corneal cells. These studies suggest that these genes may be necessary for setting up the complex functional interaction between the corneal epithelial cells and nerves that is necessary for their protection of normal vision.

New scholarship echoes lifetimes of sharing music
The East Lansing home where Henry and Phyllis Nelson lived for decades is full of musical reminders.
There's the tuba in the living room – at the ready for rehearsal – and the flute, piccolo, and baritone saxophone in a back room. And there's a stack of songbooks that Phyllis Nelson left.
A lifetime of interesting experiences were "all through music," Henry said, and he's found a way to give back and honor his late wife of 63 years.
The Henry M. and Phyllis J. Nelson Endowed Scholarship in Music Education will be given to undergraduate students in the Music Education area of Michigan State's College of Music.
The Nelsons both graduated from the music education program at then-Michigan State College in the 1940s and went on to distinguished teaching careers – she in vocal music, he in band. They were named Michigan Teachers of the Year in their fields in 1978. Two of their three children received band scholarships to MSU and two grandsons also played in the marching band.
The university and its music education program remain near and dear to Henry's heart. He's especially mindful of helping students pursue their love of teaching music.
"This endowment makes it possible for us to acknowledge and provide support for the strongest music education students as they are nearing the completion of their degrees, when the financial stresses of paying for a university degree are most acute," said Cynthia Taggart, chair of the music education program.
The 160 undergraduates endure a rigorous admission process – including auditions – and must meet very high expectations in a jam-packed five-year program.
Asked about the value of music in schools, Nelson tells the story of bumping into a former student, not uncommon for someone with such a long and storied career. He asked his past student, now a CPA, what she got out of playing with the school band.
"Without thinking, she replied, 'Discipline,'" said the proud teacher. "An appreciation of music will be with them the rest of their lives. That's probably the most important thing."
For more information on making a gift to the College of Music, contact Assistant Director of Development Linda Conradi at (517) 353-9872; firstname.lastname@example.com.

This week has been become a lot better after Monday.
I didn't cook anything exciting because it was rather warm and I stocked up on some packages instant ramen (I know that it's bad and all the MSG and stuff, but sometimes I just need it).
I went to an amazing Korean grocery store yesterday- it's a 10 minute walk from my house but I never got inside, which was a big loss... they store a lot of Asian things I haven't seen in Germany before and also a lot of veggies and spices which I usually buy at the Japanese supermarket in Düsseldorf which is expensive as hell.
Still, some easy stuff today- can you tell I love pasta?

I think there's absolutely no quality control with this company's refurbishment of their high-end office chairs. They put chairs in a box and send them off. You might get a decent chair where all the features work, and you might get a piece of garbage.
I bought a Steelcase Leap Chair a week ago. Guess what I got? A piece of garbage!!! Granted, I will never buy an office chair like this refurbished again. It's just too complex. Too many levers and things that could go wrong. That was my mistake. I bought the lowest price and that was *** and naive. I actually thought when they said the chair was "mint condition," it was mint condition. Hahahahahahahahahaha.
But what I was delivered was a chair, problem one, the arms were completely defective out of the box. Not the cool adjustable ones in the description: "height width adjustable pivot arms". Well, that made me sad because that's why I bought the frigging chair. And the lumbar back support arm broke in half within exactly one hour of normal use. Whoops!! I'm left with $380 of worthless *** on the first day of use!! I'm not happy.
After a lot of back and forth with someone named Jacob who must be 15 because he his emails are entirely in text speak, I'm supposed to be getting a full refund to my credit card. I sure hope so because otherwise the charge will be disputed tout de suite. And I also know one other thing for sure, I'll never purchase anything from this company again.
Product or Service Mentioned: Instyle Modern Chair.
Monetary Loss: $380.

We recently shared four great places to look for inspiration when generating blog topics, which included answering commonly asked questions, writing a how-to article or guest post and reading other industry publications. If you've exhausted these avenues, luckily there are countless other places to turn when seeking new topics. Here are four more of them.
Generating Blog Topics: 4 More Places to Find Inspiration
- Company News
While you should always be helpful and informative when writing blog posts, it's perfectly alright to toot your own horn every once in a while. If your company just won an award, you hired a great new team member or gotten a recent media mention, share it with your readers! It can help you look more like an industry leader and reminds clients you're at the top of your field.
- Client News
In addition to the occasional bragging about yourself, feel free to share positive news about your clients on your blog as well! It's great to showcase a customer of the week or a smart new way someone has been using your product. Sharing your clients' recent wins can also help you gain prospects and show people what you can do for them.
- Showcase Specific Products
A great self-promotional blog post topic is an explanation of a popular product or service. Give your readers information about the history of the item, its uses, specs and some commentary on why you love it. This gives your customers a chance to get a sneak peak of your offerings.
- Pick of the Week
Another method for generating blog topics is to create a "Pick of the Week" series. Use this to share your favorite new tip, article or some industry news. This is also a great way to build relationships with other companies in your industry, who will appreciate the link and mention.
Your readers will love posts about client and company news, great new products and your favorite articles of the week. Where do you look for inspiration?

As both a programmer and UX/UI designer, I'm a big believer in making sure the inside is designed as well as the outside -- a practice that Apple follows religiously with its hardware design.
One aspect of "inside" design is the use of comments in code. While there is no single right way to use comments, here are some key guidelines to consider:
1. Consistency: No matter what style you use, make sure it's consistent throughout all your apps. If you manage a team of programmers, an agreed-upon commenting style may be beneficial.
2. Minimal Formatting: Use only the minimum formatting required to ensure clarity and ease of editing.
3. Reflect Hierarchy and Importance: Make sure a comment that heads an entire section is designed diferently than the subheads within that section. Also, if you have important comments, make sure those comments are visually distinctive enough so they stand out when scrolling through code.
4. Pragma Marks: Instead of using comments to highlight places where code needs to be bug fixed, use pragma marks. XCode indexes pragma marks to make it easy to jump to specific points in your code.

Say Goodbye To Bad Body Odour With Eco Tan Deodorant
Say Goodbye to Bad Body Odour with Eco Tan Deodorant
Bad body odour is a common problem amongst everyone. Although this can be fixed with a deodorant, not all are safe and recommendable. Choosing the right deodorant to keep you from feeling embarrassed because of the bad body odour that is protruced after engaging in strenuous activities or from discomforting heat, is essential so you can embark on a safe and long-lasting solution to improving that nasty smell. This is why at Love Thyself, we highly encourage our readers and consumers to consider natural and organic alternatives.
Finding an organic deodorant or natural deodorant to keep your underarms feeling fresh and odourless all day, is perhaps the best task you can do if you have been using deodorants laden with synthetic or toxic ingredients for years. Buying products that contain artificial ingredients and chemicals may remove body odour, however, since these products contain ingredients that are toxic, long-term use will be detrimental to your health.
A coconut deodorant that is natural and safe to use is a perfect alternative, especially for those who have sensitive skin. The Eco Tan deodorant is a wonderful option to keep your body odour in check. With its unisex formula, you can share it with your partner if you're not too possessive about your stuff or if both of you don't mind sharing. Anyhow, this helps you save money and use a product long-term that doesn't harm your well-being in the long run.
See related article: "Why You Should Try Eco Tan For A Safe And Long-Lasting Fake Tan"
The Eco Tan deodorant does not contain aluminum, parabens and other common nasties found in most deodorants available in supermarkets. So, what is all the fuss about an aluminum free deodorant? The harmful effects of synthetic ingredients such as aluminum and parabens in deodorants may not happen instantly; however, studies have shown that continued use of these products may cause cancer and other health concerns. So, why should you take the risk when there are healthier alternatives?
Indeed this coconut deodorant by Eco Tan is one of the best natural and organic alternativesthat is effective and versatile. Its formulation includes a unique blend of essential oils such as coconut, lavender and chamomile to give you lasting freshness and odour-free underarms all throughout the day. In addition, it gives you protection as it helps release toxins effectively and naturally due to its formula that allows your sweat glands to breath instead of being blocked.
Read more: "Is Eco Tan Spray Tan Better Than Professional Tanning Solutions?"
A natural deodorant doesn't cause irritation and redness like synthetic ones. This helps you look and feel great as you tackle your day to day activities with confidence. The natural and relaxing scent of coconut is something to look forward to. It is also suitable for vegans and is not tested on animals. With the easy to use roll on and the travel-friendly size, you can take it anywhere and everywhere with you.
The Eco Tan range of products has been well received by many and this is just another addition to their amazing products. So, dive in and join many consumers in using only organic deodorant for an odourless and safe underarm protection.

This product is fantastic! I've tried a lot of different deodorants in the market and even though they worked for me, their ingredients turned me off. Then I found this thing a few months ago and I totally love it from healthy ingredients to the smell. It also works great even in summer!

'Into the Barrenlands'Posted by Robbie Craig on June 16, 2014 Blog | No comments
'Into the Barrenlands'
This is probably one of my stronger images to date.
'Into the Barrenlands' was a piece created to resemble my experiences living 'down South' while in New Zealand and to my home in the North.
Each Caribou representing each location. The antlers link my experiences of New Zealand to the North. New Zealand being the lower caribou on the left and the North symbolized by the caribou on the right. In New Zealand there's an old Maori story that a fisherman caught something large with a 'hook'. To his surprise it was the North Island of NZ. If you look closely on the necks of the Caribou, you will notice hooks. I too used these symbols to express my connection between NZ and the North.

"Mailer: A Biography," by Mary V. Dearborn. Houghton Mifflin. 448 pages. $30.
Born in 1923, Norman Mailer seems to have been famousforever. For some of us, he has. He achieved fame at age 25, in 1948, the year of my birth. The vehicle for his fame was his first published novel, "The Naked and the Dead." It captured the sights, sounds and personalities of World War II for thousands upon thousands of readers who had to re-live the battles for whatever reasons.
From 1948 on, Mailer was a famous novelist. But he quickly became, and remained, so much more than a novelist. He became a presence, to some extent famous for being controversial, then later on famous for being famous. He helped invent and refine literary journalism, telling more or less true stories by using the techniques of novelists such as internal dialogue and foreshadowing. "The Executioner's Song" and "The Armies of the Night" are today classics of the literary journalism genre.

THE METRO MANILA FILM FESTIVAL has issued a statement an hour ago denying the existence of the alleged ticket swapping issue brought out by netizens, and 'My Bebe Love' director Jose Javier Reyes on social media on December 25.
READ: MMFF 2015 marred by 'ticket swapping' controversy
The issue has become a hot topic on social media when netizens posted tickets of Vice Ganda and Coco Martin-starrer 'Beauty and the Bestie' saying they watched Vic Sotto and AiAi Delas Alas' film, 'My Bebe Love.' The two films are on a fight to becoming number one at the MMFF 2015 box office.
On its Facebook account, MMFF said on Saturday, "The Metro Manila Film Festival, after looking into the ticket swapping issue, strongly denies the existence of such and is enjoining all the stakeholders of the Festival to be responsible in expressing their sentiments especially on Social Media."
"The objective of the MMFF is to promote the local film industry and this baseless issue will only sideline the true intent and purpose of the Festival. Let's continue supporting all the entries of the MMFF 2015."
What do you think of this, folks?
