According to the paper the protestors threw eggs and bottles against the "prime ministry" building and tried to enter it, a development that created tension between them and the self-styled police.
In statements during the protest, BES chairman Savas Bozat noted that they will not go back to work until the self-styled government issue its resignation.

Commenting on the issue, Kibris (09.11.12) writes that the chairman of the Turkish Cypriot Tourism and Travel Agencies Union, Orhan Tolun, stated that as a result of the situation in occupied Lefkosia various tourist tours were cancelled and noted that the crisis affects negatively tourism in occupied Cyprus.
Moreover, Illegal Bayrak (08.11.12) broadcast that the Turkish Cypriot leader Dervis Eroglu made a call to all sides concerned, regarding the crisis in the "municipality" to put an end to their stubbornness, as he said and work towards solving the problem.
[02] Talat on the situation in the breakaway regime: "No government, no leadership"Under the title "There is no government, no leadership", Turkish Cypriot daily Yeni Duzen newspaper (09.11.12) reports that the former Turkish Cypriot leader, Mehmet Ali Talat, stated that the situation in the occupied area of Cyprus is even worse than the situation in areas hit by the Sandy hurricane in the USA.
Talat, who was speaking on a television program, evaluated various issues concerned the breakaway regime and accused the self-styled government and the Turkish Cypriot leader, Dervis Eroglu for their actions. He said that Eroglu gave many promises during its "election campaign" but he kept none and the first thing he did after becoming "president" was to sign a protocol with Turkey. He also accused Eroglu for succeeding in his dream regarding the Cyprus problem, which was to end the Cyprus negotiations. He also said that Eroglu is afraid of the international law as much as he is afraid of death.
Finally, Talat blame the self-styled government for the situation in "Lefkosia municipality" and accused it for not taking the right decisions for the issue.
[03] The occupation regime's flag at last night' match; No incidents were occurredAll Turkish Cypriot and Turkish dailies report on the football match between the Turkish Fenerbahce team and AEL Limassol which took place last night in Istanbul, Turkey and write that Fenerbahce won a clear victory under the score 2-0.
According to Kibris, Turkish Cypriot supporters of Fenerbahce who went to the stadium to watch the match, unfurled the "flag" of the "TRNC" before the launching of the match and as soon as the match started, they raised the "flag".
The paper still underlines that that no incidents were occurred before or after the match.
[04] GATAA's meeting to take place in the occupied area of Cyprus; statements by ErogluAccording to illegal Bayrak television (08.11.12) the Global Alliance of Travel Agent Associations (GATAA) is to hold its first Board of Directors meeting in the "TRNC". The meeting will take place in occupied Keryneia between the 15th and 18th of November.
The Secretary General of the Global Alliance of Travel Agent Associations Ahmet Necati Ozkan who is also the honorary President of the "Turkish Cypriot Travel Agents Union", was received by the Turkish Cypriot leader Dervis Eroglu this morning.
During the visit, Ozkan informed Eroglu about the association and said that the first board of directors meeting of the association will be held in occupied Keryneia between 15th and 18th of November.
He also invited Eroglu to the opening of the meeting. For his part, Eroglu said that the "TRNC" should benefit from Ahmet Necati Ozkan's experiences.
He also stressed the need for dialogue between the "Turkish Cypriot Travel Agents Union" and the so-called ministry of tourism, environment and culture.
[05] Next week the verdict about the UBP's injunction caseAccording to illegal Bayrak television (08.11.12) the occupied "Lefkosia District Court" has completed the hearing into the injunction case filed by the National Unity Party (UBP) "Deputy" Ahmet Kasif, following the disputed outcome of the UBP ordinary congress. The "court" will be announcing its verdict next week on Wednesday, the 14th of November.
Occupied Famagusta "deputy" Ahmet Kasif had filed the injunction case demanding that the "authorities" of "prime minister" Irsen Kucuk to be suspended, until the "court" decides on the disputed outcome of last month's UBP General Congress.
[06] Nuland clarified that the US did not receive an official request from NATO on the deployment of Patriot system to TurkeyAnkara Anatolia news agency (08.11.12) reported from Washington that the US State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland has said that they did not received an official request from NATO on deploying Patriot system in Turkey's Syria border.
On a question about deploying Patriot system in Turkey, Nuland said: "Since the Article 4 consultation that we had in NATO with Turkey at Turkey's request following the beginning of these cross-border incidents, we have been working within NATO and with Turkey to look at what other defensive support Turkey might require".
She said they did not receive an official request from NATO but reminded that they have reinforced Turkey with Patriots in the past. Nuland added that they would await a formal request and then NATO would deliberate. She stated: "But we are obviously looking at the full range of things to ensure that Turkey remains safe and secure."
Nuland, on a question if that have to be through NATO, answered "No" and added that traditionally as a long-time NATO ally, Turkey seeks NATO support when it feels its security might be in peril.
Another question asking "With the possible deployment of these Patriot missiles, do you think that we are getting closer to sort of enforcing a no-fly zone or a safe haven", Nuland said that she would not get into hypothetical situations and added that Patriot is a defensive system and responsible for knocking down incoming missiles. She added: "It is not a missile. It is an interceptor for missiles, so its purpose would be to defend the territory of Turkey. So I think you have got apples and oranges going here".
Nuland said that US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu did not talk on that specific issue recently, but they are expected to talk soon not necessarily on this issue but on the full package of Syria issues.
[07] Israel will reportedly restart exports of army materials to TurkeyTurkish daily Hurriyet Daily News (09.11.12) reports informed sources have said that Israeli Elta Systems Ltd., maker of Turkey's Electronic Measures Systems for Boeing's 737 Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) Systems spy aircraft, has decided to restart the manufacture of the critical devices for the planes.
Sources told the Hurriyet Daily News that the decision paves the way for the release of Boeing's long-delayed four 737 AEW&C planes, which were built for a total of $1.6 billion. More importantly, the Israeli decision may mean an end to the country's two-year defense exports ban for Turkey.
The sources said that with the decision to continue production recently the manufacture of a third plane approached completion. Elta had finished the production of the EMS systems for the first two aircraft years ago.
In 2002, Turkey's Undersecretariat for Defense Industries, the procurement agency, ordered from Boeing four 737-700 AEW&C aircraft, a ground radar and control systems, plus ground control segments for mission crew training, mission support and maintenance support.
Under the agreement the four aircraft were supposed to be released in 2006. But the integration of the planes took much longer. Elta is building the EMS systems for four aircraft. Its Turkish systems are expected to cost more than $100 million.
The Elta decision followed Boeing's efforts to urge the Israeli company to restart this Turkish manufacturing. Elta is the single producer of the EMS systems for Boeing's 737 aircraft.
The 737 Boeing AEW&C aircraft are to be used as part of Turkey's NATO capabilities. Several defense experts have claimed that the programs are too costly.
An airborne early warning and control system is an airborne radar system designed to detect aircraft, ships and vehicles at long ranges and control and command the battle space in an air engagement by directing fighter and attack aircraft strikes. Used at a high altitude, the radars on the aircraft allow the operators to distinguish between friendly and hostile aircraft hundreds of miles away.
The system is used offensively to direct fighters to their target locations, and defensively in order to counter attacks by enemy forces, both air and ground. Unless Elta endorsed its sales, there was a chance the sale to Turkey could not have been completed. But with Elta's approval, the planes will be finished next year. TURKISH AFFAIRS SECTION

Thanks, eisnerguy1, for alerting me to this. I have now fixed this.
To the person who gave the upload one star, your rating makes no sense since this was an obvious mistake that would be rectified. Furthermore you had no way of assessing the intended upload as it was not available. Normally I get NO stars for my uploads, so maybe I should be pleased to get even one . I am giving my upload 5 stars so that it averages out at 3 which is where I think it belongs, if there are to be stars allocated. The alternative is no stars, which I am also happy with, but I no longer have that option since a star has already been given.
Ummm, the download is for Backyard Basketball, not for Backyard Soccer. Same as the screenshot on the page.
No problem. Thanks for uploading it Sorry, that 1 star thing was me. Didn't realize I had given it 1 star until now. Just fixed it. Thanks again for uploading it!

Nehushtan: Just a Piece of Bronze
Written by Pastor Jim Law, Posted in Uncategorized
We are often tempted to dismiss idolatry as a serious threat to our spiritual well-being. When we think of idolatry, we can easily retreat to Old Testament days and believe that it was their problem. We confine idolatry to the work of wood or stone, and thereby dismiss it as an ancient sin with no impact to our generation.
However, in the New Testament, idolatry is mentioned as a major spiritual peril for the believer in Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul in no uncertain terms warned the Corinthians to "flee from idolatry." (I Cor 10:14) Paul also placed idolatry in the noxious list of behaviors called the deeds of the flesh and as a root behind the insatiable appetite of greed. (Galatians 5:20; Colossians 3:5)
The Apostle John concluded his first epistle with this pastoral warning, "Little children, keep yourselves from idols." (I John 5:21)
God allows no substitutes. At times He permits certain symbols to represent Him, however He never allows these symbols to replace Him. God alone is to be the center of our worship.
Idolatry pollutes true worship and obedience as we create objects of worship that exalt other things as more worthy than God Himself. Idols that grip the heart come in many packages. A few of the popular include: power, prestige, education, relationships, money, business, addictions, religion, entertainment, popularity, ego, and pornography. (more…)

Alpha men are effortless to identify. they're higher through part than the adult females, and their tails stand within the air like a lion tamer's whip. Lest you put out of your mind that Keystone is the alpha male, he does a conspicuous demonstrate each ten mins or so, to remind you of it.

He says "crapola" whilst he misses a highway go out. this present day he's wearing chinos and climbing sneakers. His blouse is quietly checkered, and his tie has small spots on it from the fish soup he ate for lunch. possibly as a result of photograph of him at the Emory site, within which he's leaning opposed to a wide tree trunk, a lady as soon as wrote to him, "You appear like a guy who'd wish to opt for a stroll.

Improving humanitarian assistance and disaster response
26 Sep 2018
Enoggera local, Emily Ragus has always held a strong passion for equitable health care. She is a critical care nurse who works as the Disaster Liaison Clinical Nurse Consultant for the Health Disaster Management Unit.
Emily will travel to New York, Geneva, Sweden and Israel to investigate models for improved aeromedical retrieval standards in international disaster response.
The Fellowship has been funded by Australia's National Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre established following the 2002 Bali bombings. The NCCTRC is a key element of the Australian Government's disaster and emergency medical response to incidents of national and international significance.
"On behalf of the NCCTRC I would like to congratulate Emily on being awarded the Fellowship.
Aeromedical retrieval standards are an important area for international disaster response and as demonstrated following the 2002 Bali bombings, vital to saving lives," said Professor Len Notaras AM, Executive Director NCCTRC.
In 2016, Emily responded to a fatal bus crash in Vanuatu and retrieved two patients. She noticed different insurance companies were providing medical care, not in line with Australian health standards.
Emily's concern for these inconsistent standards of care motivated her to apply for a 2018 Fellowship.
When Emily found out she had received a Fellowship, she felt pride, excitement about the journey ahead, as well as determination to do the best she can for her area of expertise.
Emily hopes her Fellowship will develop her understanding of the aeromedical space and broaden her knowledge in humanitarian assistance and disaster response.
"As part of my Fellowship, I will study a one-month intensive Diploma of International Humanitarian Assistance through Fordham University in New York," said Ms Ragus.
"During my Fellowship, I will learn from industry experts including human rights lawyers, and experts from International Committee of the Red Cross, the United Nations, and Médecins Sans Frontières.
Emily will then travel to Sweden to observe how the Scandinavian and Swedish governments have collaborated to transform a commercial functioning jumbo jet into an intensive care facility.
"A ground-breaking initiative such as this jet, which can be transformed within only six hours, has great potential for Australia because we are in such a geographically isolated position."
Emily's journey will also include a visit to the United Nations in Geneva to learn about their standards for medical search and rescue teams, and learning from disaster management leaders in Israel.
"Emily's area of interest is important and her investigations and new learnings will be impactful on Australian approaches to disaster response," said Adam Davey, CEO of the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust.
"We look forward to seeing how Emily will bring back the knowledge she gains from world-experts and translates her new skills into something that benefits Queensland and Australia."

Learn to work with chocolate and sugar to produce your own candies and confections. Chef Heather teaches private classes. Please contact us to learn more about the lessons.
Learn To Make Your Own Chocolates
We teach you to work with chocolate. You may have noticed that once you melt chocolate it never sets up properly again. Whether you are trying to drizzle chocolate on your cookies or dip your cake pops once chocolate melts it needs to be (sorry for the sciencey talk) crystallized or tempered to achieve that notable snap and shine. We will show you how to do that.
Once we have our chocolate crystallized we move on to mold the shells and then fill them with delicious creamy centers.
We would love to teach you how to work with this amazing food. Please go to Contact Us for more information on our private classes.
It's beginning to smell a lot like …. Gingerbread!
We teach gingerbread building and decorating classes for the entire family. We even landscape our sugary properties. Fun for every age.
Mother And Son Sugar Art Classes
Eat The Art Baking And Cake Decorating Student Takes First Place
We are so proud of our student, Emery. She is in our Eat The Art baking and cake decorating program. She recently entered a cupcake competition and won first place!
For the competition Emery made vanilla bean cupcakes with white chocolate truffle filling and Swiss meringue buttercream frosting. She made modeling chocolate and then created teacups (and saucers) into which she placed the CUPcakes. She baked shortbread cookies and placed them onto a modeling chocolate plate. She made a cream jug, sugar bowl and spoon, in addition to napkin rings. All of her edible art was then placed upon a lace-covered cake board.
Way to go Emery!!!

Discussion in 'Announcements' started by FriscoCharlie, Aug 22, 2015.
Should we start a change/no change survey as well as further discussion?
Curious, how many members are there on Frisco-Dot-Org?
Tom G.
I recommend that you push forward for the move to XenForo. I have selected the same solution for a standards group that I support. There seems to be a large group of users for Xenforo and an active effort for additional features with Xenforo.
Since the Trainboard install has already identified many problems that will be encountered, and will provide a "support group" for managing our own forum, it seems like the best way to go.
Let me know if you need any help covering software cost.
-Bob T.
We'll be coming to that. I have acquired some things that I will be giving away as gifts (to 18 of you) in return for donations. I will be talking more about that when I return from my trip to Friscoland.
3,300 but if you look at the list of members that visit each day, you can easily identify people that are active. A lot of our members (like on any forum) are non-participants. A lot of people join to ask a question and then never return, etc.
I'm hoping to caucus rather than have a primary on the subject.
Tom, Give me some examples so I can see what you are thinking.
Maybe I just like our chatboard better because I'm used to it. I'll go along with whatever you do. I just mostly look at the pictures anyway. I was wondering how many members there are?? There seem to be only about a dozen of us who post any commemts??
Tom G.
The steady users of Frisco.org appear to be model railroaders who have an interest in getting things right from a historical and/or technical perspective. I suspect that those interested in Frisco history only often also have a narrower focus based on criteria such as division or a specific geographic area. Tht's my two cents worth.
Tom Duggan
Different software will not change our focus, and should not change the things that you like. My goal, as long as I am the leader of the site, is two-fold: 1) Increase the Frisco Railroad content on the Internet (which serves to preserve the heritage that we care about), and 2) Make people enjoy this site and want to come here to be part of a like-minded group (which is why I am disappointed that more people do not welcome new members when they introduce themselves).
If you have browsed the "new" TrainBoard and have any issues with it (and this goes for everyone), then tell me what you don't like because I need to know what people are thinking.
What we are talking about changing is software only. Obviously, different software will work a little bit differently but learning what is different between this software and Xenforo is not heavy stuff, even for folks that do not consider themselves power-users of computers.
Regardless of the software that drives the site, I want people to know how to use it and enjoy it. If you have a Ferrari and can't get it started then it isn't any good.
I will continue to seek comments from members until 100, or more, members have read this thread. If anyone wants to say, "No, keep vBulletin and don't change to Xenforo," then I am listening. This whole thing has been hard for me on TrainBoard because I have been a big champion of vBulletin and you can find posts that I have made on the Internet saying, "vBulletin is the best forum software out there and the standard by which all others are compared."
I believed that until I saw Xenforo. The good news is that all of you can see it in action on TrainBoard.
Hi Charlie,
I don't post much, but I will throw in my two cents. First off I appreciate all of your efforts in taking care of this site. I do know that it takes a fair amount of effort in keeping things up and running and keeping all of the back end database functionality functioning. I wasn't a Trainboard user until your post came out about updating software for this site. I did create a Trainboard account yesterday to "kick the tires". I think the Trainboard site is intuitive and is very similar from a user interface perspective to what is present on this site; thus, I am all for making your life easier in having only one software vendor.
Thank you,
After spending about 10 minutes on trainboard.com it seems pretty intuitive. I do have a question about the colored buttons / tags at the beginning of some threads. How are they used?
Thanks Mike. We appreciate everyone's comments.
Those are "thread prefixes." We actually have that here on vBulletin too but I don't believe that we are using it here on Frisco.org.
The way it works is; you can build up sets of prefixes and then assign those prefixes to a specific forum or group of forums. If you had a forum called "Pets," you could make a set of prefixes, such as, Cats, Dogs, Goldfish, Rabbits, and so on. When a user starts a new thread, he can select from the prefixes at the time he creates the thread. This lets people quickly filter content in a forum and only look at threads that they are interested in.
You can make selecting a prefix mandatory or optional, based on your needs.
See the TrainBoard Swap Meet as an example of the use of prefixes (where they are mandatory).
Let me give another example of prefixes and how they are used, and how I think they should be used:
TrainBoard used to have a very large "Fallen Flag" forum structure. The problem was that some of the forums did not get a lot of traffic. Click here to take a look at that forum now.
Note that each thread has the prefix of a fallen flag railroad. If you click on one of them, example "NYC," you immediately get a filtered list of all of the New York Central-related posts. We used to have a forum for every fallen flag road and some of them were totally dead. I think that puts people off on posting when they say, "This forum hasn't been posted in for two years."
Here on Frisco.org, in a lot of places we have a huge forum structure. Just one example. We have, HISTORICAL > MOTIVE POWER > DIESEL LOCOMOTIVES > ELECTRO MOTIVE DIVISION. That gets you four levels under the forum index.
Then, at that point, you have this page which shows forums for all EMD locomotives. There are more than 20 forums listed there. Only three of them have been posted in during the year 2015.
It is my opinion that this forum structure is too massive. If these forums were posted in frequently then I would have no problem with that but I think the information is too spread out, too fragmented.
You could, in this case, have one forum and prefixes for SW1, GP15-1, NW2, SD38-2, etc. It would make a less fragmented, and perhaps more active, forum. Plus, people would still be able to easily filter content.
Again, this is just my opinion and how I would do it if I were just making decisions without asking. I think it is important to talk to people about things before making massive changes so these are things that I would like people to think about.
Charlie suggested: "It is my opinion that this forum structure [of Frisco.org with layers of sub-topics] is too massive. If these forums were posted in frequently then I would have no problem with that but I think the information is too spread out, too fragmented."
On the other hand, the structure makes it very easy to find information, previous discussion or a photo without having to post anything. That keeps the signal-to-noise ratio at an enviably high level on Frisco.org.
I did try the thread prefix buttons on Trainboard among the Fallen Flags. It is a neat feature that functioned well enough; I was able to click on "NYC" and get a whole list of NYC-related topics. That feature may prove helpful.
I feel that one of the reasons that Mike Corley and I continued with the massive structure was that the Search engine on vBulletin is pretty lame; it does not search well for a specific topic: say "EMD SW7" to find all threads where the phrase EMD SW7 appears. A search for EMD SW7 in quotes yields no results. A search for either EMD or SW7 without quotes yields no results. It is easier to navigate through the forum using the forum and thread headings.
If the new software corrects that issue, the structure of the forum is not as significant.
I am struggling with the Picture albums now called media on TB. I resized my images to well under 2MB but roster shots of locos upload show as severely cropped in the album. Is there a setting I need to adjust? I have to say I am less than enthused with that particular part of TB.
As info I always crop my pictures to show relevant content, most are no longer a "square image" and these seem to be the ones that are the problem images, then I resize to get under 2MB, which means about all of them.
That's an excellent point Keith! Xenforo has the ability to have Elasticsearch installed (and it is installed on TrainBoard). This system produces incredible search results and works in a way that we have not see before on forum software. HUGE improvement in searches and the ability to search for shorter terms.
Tom, I am not aware of that problem. Can you e-mail me a picture that is not resized? I am able to upload 8 megabyte photos on TrainBoard and the software is resizing them to 2000 px and downsizing them to 2 MB automatically. If you are having issues I want to work through that as it may be an issue that I am not aware of.
Apologies for the non Frisco content, but this is the very photo uploaded and the thumbnail showed the picture cropped (no surprise), but when yo double click the image to open it, still shows the cropped image.
Actually Charlie I dont have any that are not resized right now as I do it as soon as I upload them from the camera. Let me get you some in a couple days.
BTW I deleted the issue photos on TB and uploaded again, now when double clicked the whole image shows, but if you right click and select view image it still shows the thumbnail. I just uploaded 2 images and thats what it shows.
I am not following 100%. What is the reason for right clicking on the photo?
Separate names with a comma.

Last week I attended my first ever annual Great American Trucking Show (GATS) in Dallas, Texas. I had an absolutely amazing time in the "Big D." Heck, I had a great time in Texas altogether. I'm pretty sure I ate steak for every meal while I was in town…but I digress. Anyway, attending the show was a great way to really learn about the culture of the trucking industry, even more than I knew before. Here's the low down on all the crazy things I took away from my experience at GATS.
1. You can't judge a book by its cover in trucking.
Traditi0nally, people think of truckers as "biker-esque" masculine types, right? But, holy cheese and rice is that cliche WRONG! Truck drivers at GATS came from every walk of life. And, they came from all over the Globe. There's no preconceived driver standard. I met the coolest truck drivers from all over the country; big cities to small country towns. AND, I met truckers from down under in Australia and from all the way up in the Swiss alps.
Also, the females in trucking are totally not what you'd expect. The cutest and most petite lady-driver can actually be a tougher and more bada$$ than the fellas. And, even though they disregard played-out gender roles for their occupation, they still do not necessarily possess a "Tomboy" persona. They still wear makeup and skirts when they feel like it. Just because you are a female in a male-dominated industry, does not mean you play a certain list of rules.
2. There is a Pirates of the Caribbean truck in the world.
Yes, you read that title right. Let me reiterate, THERE IS A PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN TRUCK that actually exists. The semi features visually stunning paint in vibrant blacks and purples and even Johnny Depp would be taken back with the artist's craftsmanship. The 18-wheeler, named "the Black Pearl" is basically a nautical mobile museum. Literally, everything is pirate themed in some way down to the "wood-panel treasure chest" looking engine to the mechanical parrot in the cabin.
3. No matter who you are, everyone loves free stuff.
GATS is such a huge event in a massive building. There were stands everywhere handing out everything from tote bags, pens and pins to free electronic-massage testing and booths filled with flying cash. Men, women, young and old alike; we're all guilty of being naturally drawn to the best things in life…the free things! Basically, the show was like Trick-or-Treating in August. There was just so many companies there in such a ginormous arena that there was much free loot to be had. But hey, I'm not complaining.
4. There are so many products that I never knew existed (that now I need.)
In my GATS exploration, I found some seriously amazing gadgets that are out there on the market that are just so amazing that I can't believe I have lived my whole life without them in it. From coolers with built in cup-holders that could keep my drink cool and have attachments to charge my iPhone to handheld massages that basically look like iPods. As soon as I got home from the Great American Truck Show, I started a new budget so I can buy all the new toys I saw there!
P.S. I'm currently taking up donations so feel free to send me large quantities money so I can get my paws on the sweet trucking gear I saw at the show. 😉
5. The trucking industry has a tight-knit yet accepting community.
The most evident thing I took away from GATS was the highly remarkable sense of community there. Truck drivers and their families, companies, and everyone in between congregated in such a cool way. Everyone seemingly knew so many of the people there. It was like a huge room of an extensive family. It made me feel good. Everyone and anyone was accepted and it only finalized my opinion that truckers are great people.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that things were even stranger on levels that were heretofore overshadowed by other strange events. For such a large city, it had to have some earlier foundations, but there were no signs of historical buildings or landmarks. It was just a very generic large, modern city. Odd how he never considered it until now, he thought. "So about what you said a few days ago..."She glanced behind her as she walked. "What about?" she asked.
She'd been inflating herself for years. Since November of her sophomore year in high school, to be exact. Emma could remember the first time she came across the fetish online. Seeing all those girls with their beautiful, swollen bellies had gotten her curious, and she'd decided to try it out. And once she was filled up with air, nice and big, she knew this was all that she wanted.
Allison was a social girl. She loved company, almost to a fault. She basically relied on it. She had dirty-blonde hair that fell a little bit past her shoulders, but she usually kept it in a neat ponytail. A few loose strands covered her forehead, down to her brown eyes. She had a small smattering of freckles on her nose and rosy cheeks. She was five-and-a-half feet tall with a thin but not frail frame, with a hint of athleticism adorning her body. She had a respectable C-cup bust and an ass that did its job.
While the Manniver family had safely gotten through the hurricane, the mermaid they discovered in their backyard the morning after didn't appear so lucky.
First time posting on here, so I thought I'd bring over something from my DeviantArt account. http://carolusrises.deviantart.com/art/Angelic-Sausage-694651941?ga_submit_new=10%3A1500961256
The sun was striking down — again — on the white shingles of my home when I awoke. I peeled aside the drapes of my bedroom window and could practically feel the heat radiating through the glass. The mornings should never be this hot.
The animation to this inflation sequence can be found in the web links section and is named "woman spy gets inflated".
"So what's my special surprise?" Hotep asked excitedly. She had recently gained a ton of weight thanks to Shadow from meals and drinks he made. Her bottom bounced and jiggled with every step she took from how big it became and her belly and breasts were nearly the same. She didn't mind all this new weight at all, it made her special being pampered like that and like true royalty to Shadow. Her hair was now longer than before due to neglecting to cut it more often that still did nothing to hide her massive figure.

Fast, slow, by road, over water or by air, cold or warm... the conditions in which products are transported can vary greatly. Incorrectly chosen packaging can hinder proper transportation, have a major impact on the quality of the product, and put serious pressure on financial margins.
As a result of many years of experience in the development of packaging solutions for fresh chains, Wageningen Food & Biobased Research offers advice on a wide range of logistic requirements. For example, how can we improve the cooling of a product during transport; do we develop a new packaging solution or are there other options? We also regularly receive questions about alternative transport options: how to package a product that is now going to be transported by shipping container rather than air? Our work sphere encompasses the entire world as supermarkets purchase their products globally, and the Netherlands is one of the world's largest food export countries.
Simulating transport options
In our research facilities we accurately simulate and test transport options and their influence on the quality of (fresh) products –¬ including transportation in shipping containers. These testing activities take place in combination with research into the entire supply chain of a product on its journey from harvesting to the consumer. In this chain, packaging is supposed to bundle and protect products as well as facilitate an efficient loading process.
Logistic challenges
Logistics are a serious challenge to packaging companies and producers. Every means of transport has different requirements for packaging. Air cargo pallets, for example, are stacked in such a way that the semi-circular cargo space is optimally used. 'Square' cargo spaces (trucks, shipping containers and cold storage, for instance) require an efficient stacking of large and small packaged units. Moreover, they must have the standard size that is globally applied to pallets; which is why this type of transport commonly uses (modular) standard dimensions.
When the product also switches between means of transport during the logistic process, the packaging must be aligned to the different applicable dimensions. All these aspects make the 'packaging puzzle' a complicated matter. Loading and mixed cargo models provide efficient solutions to these puzzles.
Total solutions for logistics
Products, packaging, modes of transport and the demands of end users are constantly changing, which requires adaptations to the logistic process. The world expects new and attractive products that enhance user comfort, something which is further stimulated by the rise of e-commerce. We can resolve new logistic puzzles by using our knowledge of the entire production chain, in which transport and packaging are crucial elements.

Intel vs. AMD power efficiency hinges on memory
New tests show greater power consumption for Intel Xeon quad-core processors compared with AMD's latest quad-core Opteron processors, partly because Xeon uses FB-DIMM memory.
Last week, the Chicago-based independent client/server testing group Neal Nelson & Associates released test results for the temporarily defunct quad-core Opteron processors from Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) and Intel Corp.'s Xeon quad-core processors, showing performance and efficiency differences, especially when it comes to memory.
The processor comparisons indicated that while the Xeon quad-core-based servers delivered up to 14% higher throughput than did AMD's quad-core Opteron-based models, Opteron servers were as much as 41% more power efficient. While the study may reflect questionable methodology, it also begs questions about which kind of memory best serve processors.
Apples to oranges benchmark
Indeed, Neal Nelson's results are problematic. The tests compared AMD's newest technology, the Opteron 2350 2.0 GHz quad-core processors released in Q4 2007, with Intel's older 65-nanometer (nm) Clovertown E5335/E5345 processors, which became available in Q4 2006.
Nelson could have tested newer Intel quad-core processors, such as the X5365 and L5335 released in August 2007, which had enhanced energy efficiency and performance, or the further enhanced 45-nm Intel 5400 quad-core processors released in November 2007.
Nelson said he used the older Intel quad-core processors because when he requested newer parts for testing from Intel, the company declined. "The 65-nm parts are being shipped in volume to customers today, so those are the parts that I was able to borrow to run these tests."
But while AMD's Opteron Barcelona processor officially launched this September, the chip hasn't been shipped, and Nelson declined to say where he procured it.
AMD decided not to go forward with widespread shipments of Barcelona after it discovered an errata, explained John Fruehe, AMD's worldwide market development manager of server and workstation products. "We don't believe customers would even see it, but we are conservative and would rather be safe than sorry, so we held back on bulk shipments," Fruehe said, adding that AMD is on track for volume shipment in April with revision B3.
Despite the use of older Intel technology, Nelson maintains he is vendor neutral and was not remunerated by AMD. In fact, he gave Intel some esteem, saying, "Intel will almost always report times that are a lot better than AMD when the primary task load is bigger than 2 MB [the size of the AMD cache] and smaller than 4 MB [the size of the Intel cache], and when there are few interrupts -- low network I/O -- and no disk I/O."
An Intel spokesperson declined comment on the test results, but cited the more favorable Standard Performance Evaluation Corp. (SPEC) benchmarks.
Memory efficiency at issue
Despite the questionable processor comparison, the type of memory Intel uses, Fully Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM), is known by memory manufacturers such as Micron Technology Inc. to consume more power than the DDR2 DIMM memory used by AMD. The distinction matters because it can counteract the power efficiency built into a CPU.
"By themselves, the Intel processor chips may use less power, but all current Intel Xeon servers use of FB-DIMM memory modules. These modules appear to consume more power than the DDR-II memory modules in AMD-based servers. The result is that in many cases an Opteron based server actually uses less total power than a Xeon-based server," Nelson said.
On average, the CPU accounts for 35% of server power consumption, and memory sucks up 15%, according to research b Midvale, Utah-based Burton Group.
Nelson said that even if he had used the newest-model Intel processors, the power efficiency would show only about a 2% improvement, because the latest Intel processors still rely on FB-DIMM memory.
"For big and complex workloads, like Apache and Oracle, with lots of network activity and some disk I/O, Intel may be somewhat faster than AMD, but because Intel insists on FB-DIMMs, AMD will be much more energy efficient," Nelson said.
"For workloads that are bottlenecked on disk I/O, both machines will deliver almost identical throughput, and the AMD machine will be more energy efficient," Nelson said. "I saw this same pattern for the current [core architecture] Xeons in both dual- and quad-core configurations."
Further demonstrating the effect of memory , Sun Microsystems Inc. has compared its Sun Fire X4150 powered by the quad-core Intel Xeon processor 5300 series with an AMD Opteron.
Sun's comparison indicated that in Intel Xeon 5300 series-based servers, the CPU consumes less power but has longer memory latency and an FB-DIMM consumes 10.4 watts of power per module. In contrast, the AMD Opteron CPU consumes more power but offers shorter memory latency, while the DDR2 DIMM consumes only 4.4 watts per module.
Intel has said that FB-DIMMs may ultimately provide lower total cost of ownership than their alternatives because of greater reliability and memory capacity.
To reduce memory power consumption, Micron introduced the energy-efficient memory module in 2007 Aspen Memory, which can reduce server power consumption by 60%, the company claims.
"A server farm with 1,000 blades is concerned about power beyond anything else. These folks could save tens of millions of dollars buy using a memory technology we offer, and not at a premium," said Brett Williams, Micron's senior segment marketing manager of DRAM. "You don't have to use the power you use now."
Micron devised a power calculator that allows data centers to calculate how much power their memory consumes.

PHS falls to unbeaten Eagles
Saturday, November 17, 2018 by CJ HEMERLY Special to the Press in Sports
The Parkland girls volleyball team may not have looked the part early in the 2018 season, but it began to play its best volleyball within the last month of the season when it mattered most. That continued into the postseason.
The District 11 Class 4A champion Trojans played good volleyball in both the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference playoffs and district tournament.
For the seventh time in the last eight seasons Parkland was playing in the state semifinals, but for the second straight year it fell just short of the title game, dropping a match to Bishop Shanahan 3-0 by scores of 25-23, 25-12, 25-20 Tuesday night at Quakertown High School.
It is the third straight season that the Trojans (21-4 overall) met with the Eagles (23-0), with both teams splitting the last two seasons. The two teams also met twice this year in the Parkland Invitational, with each team taking a match.
"We played one of the best high school games I have seen in the first set coming up short 25-23," said Parkland head coach Mike Krause. "Bishop Shanahan put together a great run and got into tempo in the second set to capture that one 25-12. With our backs to the wall the girls scratched and clawed to an exciting finish, but came up just short in the third set.
"We got shell-shocked a little in the second game and couldn't recover. That's a very good team, especially at this time of year."
Parkland scored 10 of the first 15 points in the opening set, and actually led 22-19, but saw that advantage fade in the end.
The Eagles then scored the next five points and wouldn't trail in any game for the remainder of the night. Bishop Shanahan jumped to a 9-1 lead in set two before Parkland fought back to within 9-6. The Eagles scored the next six points and led 22-9 at one point. Shanahan led game three 15-3 before Parkland finished strong.
"They get into a very good rhythm," Krause said of the Eagles. "They're running their middles and then we key on the middles and they spread the ball outside and find gaps. They were speeding it up and finding that gap. They passed some really good balls, which allowed them to hold us in the middle and crate opportunities on the wing."
Krause has a lot of good to reflect on with his team.
"This team was a collection of the nicest, unselfish and hard-working kids I have been fortunate to coach," said Krause. "My assistants Jesse Krasley, Taylor Krause and Michael Lewis helped bring out the best in each and every one if these athletes.
"I can say Parkland was proudly represented by this group of volleyball players."
Grace Steurer led the way with 12 kills and six digs. Adriana Goetz-Morales tallied 10 kills. Brooke Kratzer contributed 22 assists.
Parkland graduates nine seniors from this year's team.

Tips For First Visit to Disney World Orlando
11 Tips For Surviving Your First Trip to Walt Disney World
Have Fun!
Most of all, relax and have a good time. The trip may be for the kids, but once mama's willing to let go a bit, she'll have a blast, too. Seeing Disney through the eyes of your child is magical, and experiencing it as an adult is pretty amazing, too! Yes, your kids may be tired. Yes, you will probably end up spending more than you want to. And yes, your kids may go several days without ever seeing a vegetable — why don't they make Mickey carrots with the ice cream, pasta, and pretzels? — but everyone will survive and be no worse for wear for it!

Infinite time is just a glitch away
ReCore's optional dungeons are the purest parts of the game. They're self-contained challenges that put an emphasis on platforming, combat, or exploration. These are the three core tenets of the whole game, but these dungeons' lean nature means that they skirt a lot of the problems that plague the rest of it. At least, they do when you mentally isolate them from the rest of ReCore.
What's so insidious about the dungeons is that they're fairly easy to beat outright. But, every one of them comes with a set of extra constraints that can make it more challenging: Shoot eight switches, find the hidden key, and beat the time limit. On their own, none of these are an especially tough task.
However, to truly best the dungeon and earn all the rewards, players need to complete all three on a single run. This can prove to be exceptionally difficult at times. The switches and the key are easy enough, but the time limit makes those two incredibly inconvenient when you're trying to go as quickly as possible.
ReCore has a glitch that renders the time constraint null, effectively removing all of the stress that comes with trying to perfect these dungeons. Sure, it's antithetical to what the game stands for. But, the way it works is so emblematic of how sloppy ReCore can be sometimes. The way it's activated is by visiting a dungeon that's not even supposed to be in the game.
YouTube user Studio 308 Games posted the above-embedded video that lays out everything related to the glitch. It requires fast travelling to The Cradle and going to the western section that is thought to be unplayable without the missing fifth robot. With some crafty (but still simple) platforming around the area's outer limits, it's possible to jump and have the flier bot carry Joule to a newly-accessible safe spot.
After that, there's some easy traversal (watch the video for specifics) until coming across a fast travel station. Once that's activated, there's no need to perform all those steps ever again. Also, hidden in this area are four cell bots that open a dungeon called Quicksand Rally. This dungeon seems as if it was supposed to be cut from ReCore, but it was instead made inaccessible. Players quickly found a work-around.
In Quicksand Rally, there's a wall at the first turn that Joule can jump through, putting her outside of the map. Leaping off of this sends her plummeting into the abyss. While the screen fades to black, pull up the inventory screen and warp her back to her home crawler. This keeps the dungeon objectives activated while Joule is no longer in the dungeon.
From there, fast travel to any other dungeons and complete them. The clock will appear as if it ran out, but that's not how ReCore registers it. The loot room opens opens up the reward for coming in under time, along with any other objectives that were fulfilled. It's a simple way to circumvent some of ReCore's greatest challenges.
Obviously, this isn't the correct way to play ReCore. It will sap a lot of the sense of achievement out of besting these grueling dungeons. But, it's a glitch that's made possible by going to a large part of the world that wasn't even supposed to be included in the game. That's crazy. If the developers are content to take shortcuts, maybe the players should be too.

Hepatitis Home > Engerix-B Vaccine Information
Engerix-B® (hepatitis B vaccine) is a vaccine that helps prevent hepatitis B. It is approved for people of all ages, and is typically given as a series of three or four injections. Your particular dosing schedule will depend on several factors, such as your age, kidney function, and vaccination history.
This vaccine is not made from human fetal components or animal components; instead, it is made using recombinant DNA technology. It works by "tricking" the body into thinking it has been exposed to the hepatitis B virus. The body produces antibodies that will help fight infection if future exposure occurs. Because Engerix-B is a "live" vaccine, there is no risk of getting hepatitis B from your vaccination.
Some of the common side effects reported with the product include dizziness, headache, fever, and fatigue. However, most people tolerate the vaccine well. Before getting vaccinated, let your healthcare provider know if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or thinking of becoming pregnant. Also, tell your healthcare provider if you have multiple sclerosis, an immune-suppressing condition, or any allergies.
(Click Engerix-B for more information on this vaccine. This article takes a closer look at the product's dosing guidelines, warnings, generic availability, and more.)
