Course Description:

Cultural heritage
The most important cultural heritage of Idrija is linked to the tradition of five centuries of mining. Monumental technical devices and machines have been preserved. The town of Idrija and its surroundings boast a large number of cultural heritage sites, which testifies to the exceptional significance of this area for mercury production. The technical heritage facilities are the most direct witness of five centuries of mining. A great many rare and even unique specimens of technical heritage have been preserved. The preserved water barriers known as »klavže« are an exceptional example of building construction, and testify to the unique technology of timber floating for the needs of the mine. The continuously emerging challenges in ore extraction and metal production attracted prominent European researchers to Idrija. Idrija also developed as a town with all the necessary educational institutions offering opportunities to capable local inhabitants for educating themselves. Mining activities occupied the male labour force, but also brought lacemaking activities into the town, which were developed by women and provided them with an additional source of income.
A rural population lived in the surroundings of Idrija. Preserved today are the homesteads of powerful, wealthy farmers in Spodnja Idrija, and large, solitary homesteads in the Idrija hills. The existence of residential and all necessary farm buildings testify to the economic independence of these farm units.
The influential historical processes that brought political and social changes also left their mark in the form of immovable heritage sites. These include military facilities from the First and Second World Wars – military routes, boundary fortifications, and burial grounds. Although of younger origin, these sites bear witness to the turbulent historical events in this area in the recent past as well.
The Municipality of Idrija has 14 cultural monuments of national importance (NM), while the remainder are cultural monuments of local importance (LM), and two locations hav a status of cultural heritage (CH). (Source: Register of immovable cultural heritage)
Idrija together with Almaden in Spain, has been inscribed on UNESCO's List of World Heritage for its exceptional mercury heritage.

For Alberta and all Canadians who believe change is possible.
For Alberta and all Canadians who believe change is possible.
By no means do Canadians corner the weather market – we do spend a considerable amount of time talking about it. Who could blame us – the photo below was taken yesterday in Calgary, Alberta. Barely 24 hours earlier, the mercury hovered around 25 Celsius ( 77 degrees Fahrenheit, Americans). Calgary's temperature plunged courtesy a healthy Arctic outflow wind and voila – 10 centimeters (4 inches) of snow. A snowfall warning for today predicts a possible 10-20 centimeters additional white stuff.
When I think of oil I picture John Wayne capping a well in classic 60s style, or lazy pumps rocking up and down across the landscape. Oil pools beneath the ground; oilmen drill and pump it to the surface, move it to refineries by pipeline, then distribute it via freight systems to its final destination. There are mishaps like the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska or the bungled well in the Gulf of Mexico; the latter received 24 hour news coverage for weeks – an epic ecological disaster. Fouled beaches impacted tourism, shellfish beds destroyed, fragile marshland and glades gasping beneath globs of crude oil. Count down clocks clicked until another attempt was made to contain the devastation. Debates raged over blame and compensation, newsmen interviewed every forlorn shrimp man and business owner along the Gulf Coast. For weeks on end – analysis, impact reports, and human interest stories; and without fail, an ever present split screen showing crude oil spewing from the underground well.
Oil spills come and go, they blaze across media outlets for a few weeks, then forgotten until the next one reminds us to be more careful. Out of sight, out of mind. The oil most people think of is pumped from reserves deep in the earth; vast pools of crude, waiting in underground lakes. Until an accident impacts the environment – no visible damage on the horizon.
Bitumen is another story. This tar like, semi solid substance is found in sandy or clay like earth known as tar sands. The 141,000 square Km Athabasca Tar Sands in northern Alberta gives Canada the second largest oil reserve in the world after Saudi Arabia. Unlike Saudi oil, this is Bitumen – in the earth, not beneath it.
In 1967, Sun Oil Company was the first to commercially extract crude from the sands using water and surfactants to separate the oil, initial production was around 30,00 barrels a day. Now 64 oil companies, most of them foreign, produce upwards of a million barrels a day. Production is expected to increase at the same rate, the government has no intention of conducting business any other way. Alberta has one of the lowest royalties in the world for its oil, in 1994 the federal government gave tax breaks of 100% for capital investment; to be "written off" as "accelerated capital cost allowances". Canada has rolled out the red carpet to foreign investment with just one stipulation – once the land has been strip mined, it should be restored to "equivalent land capability", although land use does not have to be identical.
The tar sands area around Fort McMurray is, or was Boreal forest and muskeg. The Athabasca River runs through the sands and provides the massive amount of water needed to process Bitumen. The water is heated using ridiculous amounts of natural gas; so much so that Alberta may have to reduce natural gas shipments to America to keep up with the tar sands. Huge tailing pools contain by-products of the refining process. Mercury, lead, cadmium, and other toxic waste products seep into the ground, and spill back into the Athabasca River with nothing more than an "oops – sorry" from the oil companies. Hundreds upon hundreds of kilometres, as far as the eye can see, wiped off the face of the earth.
Ponder those weeks spent watching images of oil spilling into the Gulf of Mexico, then look long and hard at the pictures. Granted the gulf supports many more people, shrimp are much more popular than Northern Pike, and the livelihood of northern Canada's mostly indigenous population doesn't hold a candle to the plight of oyster men in Louisiana.
Call me crazy, I won't care. A week or so from now I'll find myself in Battleford, Saskatchewan, and I couldn't be happier. I grew up in the country; my rural childhood had seasons, wildlife, and something I perceived as isolation. Aside from the occasional rocking thunderstorm, and the time lightning struck and demolished the tree next to our house – it lacked extremes.
Canada is a very large country, a place with vastly different weather patterns. My farm childhood pales in comparison to that of the prairies. I grew up with lakes and mountains. I lived in a valley, surrounded by fruit trees and sagebrush. Sure it snowed, but never enough to halt our daily march to the school bus, or heaven forbid – issue a "snow day" at school.
In my early twenties I spent a winter working at a hotel in Grande Prairie, Alberta. This is the place responsible for my fascination with weather extremes. I barely had time to wrap my head around the sun peering just above the edge of the horizon for a few hours each day, when terms like ice fog and snow rollers entered my vocabulary. Ice fog was my first lesson in the wonder of very, very cold weather. I knew about block heaters for car engines, you plugged your car in at night to keep the engine fluids from freezing. I didn't know that despite this, at -40 or -45 degrees Celsius a coin still had to be flipped each morning to see who had to go out and get the thing started. I had no idea my car tires would become flat where they sat on the ground, and that everyone thunked along the road until their tires warmed up. I had no frame of reference to ponder temperatures so cold , water vapour in fog would form ice crystals that hung in the air. Barely able to catch my breath; snow rollers assaulted the house. Far from scientific my explanation of this phenomenon is summed up as high wind blowing across the prairie picking up snow, this snow forms balls, pushed by the wind and growing as they roll along, they smash into the side of your house with a rather astounding thwack.
Officially hooked on weather, I sought it out rather than waiting for it to come along. While extremely cold weather seemed to offer the most excitement, I wasn't picky. Any weather rush would do.
Hail storms fueled my hunger. Driving through "tornado alley" in the states gave me goose bumps. One night as we drove across South Dakota a tornado was visible between the lightning flashes. I see my first flash flood as if it were yesterday. We were at the Monument Valley on the Utah/Arizona border when massive thunder clouds started to build on the horizon, within minutes the wind was blowing sand with such force it stung. All around me people scrambled for cover as hail and rain fell with force beyond imagination. I didn't move, I couldn't take my eyes off a red rock cliff; transformed into a muddy waterfall. Out of nowhere an old Navajo man appeared, he talked to me, explaining why mother earth had sent this storm. Never before or since have I felt as "spiritual" as I did that moment.
Last summer in Cuba, tropical storm Emily passed over Havana. Sitting at the edge of our hotel's roof top pool, I felt the storm before I saw it. Oblivious to the pounding rain, wind, or frantic appeals by hotel staff to clear the roof; I smiled as funnel clouds formed, dropping down and retreating, teasing me with their elegance and power. The hotel staff literally pulled me from the roof as lightning lashed with a fury that surprised and rejuvenated me. Deposited in my room just in time to witness a lightning bolt strike the building next to us. Every hair on my body stood on end, the building rocked as deafening echoes bounced off the battered city. It was incredible, one of my best days.
So now I'm off to Battleford. A tiny blip, planted squarely in the centre of the Canadian prairie. A place where freezing rain, blizzards, and wind chills are a fact of life. I'm going to visit a place where weather changes in the blink of an eye, and best of all; a place where the endless sky, unobstructed by mountains or city lights will give me a front row seat to auroras. The northern lights show will hopefully be the icing on an extreme weather shot in the arm.
Snow Rollers –
What better way to start the new year than with a ponder. Something to think about, talk about, learn more about.
Scientists from Harvard and GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research, have announced that melting ice due to global warming, effects volcanic activity. Water is heavy; as it flows to and collects in our oceans, extraordinary pressure is put on the tectonic plates. In a nutshell – continents get lighter, oceans heavier. By looking at core samples up to a million years old, evidence of volcanic ash were present in times of warmer climates. The conclusion being; extra pressure forced more magma towards the surface.
Climate change is not the hot topic it was a few years ago. Al Gore has faded from the talk show and speaker for hire circuit. In 2011 Stephen Harper pulled Canada out of the Kyoto Protocol; an international agreement aimed at reducing greenhouse emissions. Certainly a move that sent a jubilant cry throughout the "oil sands" in his home province of Alberta. Big business has settled nicely into the practice of trading carbon credits. Global warming came as a boom for the plastics industry; it created "environmental awareness" demanding millions of recycling bins. Ironic that plastic production is one of the worst offenders, not to mention the millions of barrels of oil required.
Life is a delicate balance; every action has a reaction. Life could not exist without a precise natural order. Cycles of climate change are part of that order. Are greenhouse gasses speeding up the process? Who can say for sure.
I look at it much like the "dust bowl' in the 1930's. Credited as the worst man made disaster in North America. A natural ten year cycle of drought occurred; the problem was, poor farming practices had stripped the great plains of grass. With natural grass gone, along with the 5 foot root system that kept soil in place – the plains simply blew away.
Global warming is a natural occurrence, charging full speed towards modern greed and indifference. Glaciers and the ice shelf are melting faster than they can be replenished. Ocean levels will rise, weather will become increasingly severe, and it seems volcanic activity will increase. Taking the lesson of dust bowl farmers; we can't stop natural cycles, but can take steps to soften their impact.
Jacobshavn Glacier retreat: The rapidly retreating Jakobshavn Glacier in western Greenland drains the central ice sheet. This image shows the glacier in 2001, flowing from upper right to lower left. Terminus locations before 2001 were determined by surveys and more recent contours were derived from Landsat data. The recent stages of retreat have widened the ice front, placing more of the glacier in contact with the ocean.

Sugar, enemy of children's dental health
Europeans brought many things to the "New World". Among the worst were disease and slavery. Sugar is somewhere in the middle. Let us explain.
When Europeans brought sugar cane to the Caribbean, merchants needed workers for cultivation. They brought in slaves from West Africa. They reaped huge profits from the slaves, the sugar, and the rum.
Sugar cane may be a great economic plant for growers - it is still used to produce sugar, rum, along with ethanol, plastic, and electricity. But the sugar is pushed into our diets like a drug.
After World War II, scientists found that our body weight, obesity, and diabetes all increased, as well as dental cavities. The main cause was the use of sugar in our foods and drinks.
We now have meals with Coca Cola, Pepsi, and other "soft drinks". We give our kids apple or orange juice day and night. We refresh ourselves at the gym with Gatorade or Powerade. All are sugar-sweetened drinks. Some, like fruit juices, have natural sugars. Other manufactured foods have added sugars. Slowly we've become dependent on the sugar in these drinks.
Recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that children consume 16 percent of their total calories from added sugars. The international recommendations are for no more than 5 percent of calories come from sugar.
What does this really mean? Let us have a go.
Five percent is equivalent to about 5 sugar cubes a day for a 5-year-old. For teens, the safe amount of sugar is the equivalent of about 10 sugar cubes a day. (A sugar cube has the same amount of sugar as a teaspoon.)
To estimate the number of sugar cubes in any food, we divide the number of grams by 5 and the number of calories by 15.
To give you an idea of the amount of sugar in our food, SugarStacks.com made some photos.
A single drink delivers more than the safe single day sugar dose for a 5 year old. Sadly, sugar isn't just in drinks. Sugar also lives in the snacks we give to our kids.
Sugar is also in some of the breakfast foods we feed our kids.
This adds up, day-to-day, week-to-week, year-to-year. One of the earliest clues of sugar dependency is dental cavities. Around one in three Mexican youths in the U.S. have had cavities in their teeth. For Mexican children it is even higher – one in two have cavities.
So what are some alternates to sugar sweetened beverages and snacks? What about carrots? They are healthy, filling, and nutritious. In short, a great snack.
As children become adults the effects of sugar moves beyond cavities to obesity, and diabetes. And this is not just a U.S. problem.
Mexico is the 7th largest producer of sugar in the Americas (Brazil is number one.) Mexicans drink on average 43 gallons of sugar sweetened beverages a year. Seventy-one percent of Mexicans are overweight and 21% are obese. Finally, diabetes is the leading cause of death in Mexico.
To address the poisoning effect of sugar, Mexico imposed a 10% tax on soda and an 8% tax on junk food (cookies, candy, ice cream and chips) in 2014.
In 2015 scientists saw almost a 20% drop in sugar sweetened beverage sales. The reduction in sales - and consumption - was the highest among the poorest. The poorest are more affected by the consequences of eating sugars. So, this tax is promising.
Similar taxes are now being implemented in Chile, Barbados and other Latin American countries.
While the U.S., has not implemented this tax, the city of Berkeley in California, and the Navajo Nation in Arizona both enacted sugar sweetened beverage taxes, and made fresh fruits and vegetables tax-free.
Lessons learned.
Europeans brought many things to the "New World." Looking back, among the worst were sugar cane and slavery.
We are aware of the sugar we put in our coffee, milk, or tea. But we are blind to the sugar added to our children's food, drinks, and snacks.
If we want our children to live long and prosper, look at their teeth. Dental cavities are the early warnings of too much sugar.
Ask your doctor or dentist about sugar, and protect your children and your family.

2012 in 2012 – Week 10
Week Ten – not too eventful *sigh* – I found it's much too difficult to purge when you can't walk! My foot is healing nicely, according to my surgeon, but we did have a small scare when one night this week I developed a mild fever; then it woke me up in the middle of the night with pain and extreme itching. I went back to the doctor and he thinks I was having a reaction to the betadine they use as an antiseptic. God-willing, we will be able to remove the stitches on Monday and I will be to begin walking and driving again – yay! I also need to start exercising again so I can get back to this!
- Nothing
Thrown Away:
- 3 Non-Disposable Razors & their Stands
- 1 Pair of Underwear
- 1 Adult T-shirt
- 1 Adult Pair of Pants
- 1 Adult Pair of Shorts
- 1 Broken Dry Erase Board
- 6 Fairy Figurines
I am very glad I didn't report these sold items last week 'cause this post would be very thin! I purposely left them out last week even though they sold during that time. They hadn't been paid for yet, and I have had experiences with some ebay sales where things never get paid for…
- Donated: 0 Items
- Thrown Away: 8 Items
- Sold: 6 Items
Week 10: 1657 – 14 = 1643
Yuck! I think I was supposed to average 41 items per week, not 14! Heal foot! Heal! We will be back to our regularly scheduled program in a week or two. Is anyone else purging? It's not too late to get started – please consider joining me. Have a good week everyone.

text: Insights on Application Insights August 2017 Wondering how to use Application Insights with your Sitecore project? Here is a quick reference on how to add it. Application Insights is an Application Performance Management service which notably has a user interface to filter and view logged messages and is rising in popularity with Sitecore implementations. Sitecore has made an implementation available for cloud deployments that sends Sitecore logging and performance counters to Application Insights. We can borrow it for any Sitecore instance even those not hosted in the cloud. A number of articles share the benefits of leveraging the cloud based tool, but I haven't seen any showing how to configure it. So for those not as familiar with Sitecore's Azure deployment packages here is a quick guide for how to send Sitecore's logging to Application Insights. Prerequisites… you will need: A Sitecore instance - works with any regardless of hosting (ie. doesn't need to be in the cloud) A Sitecore certified account - You'll need to download the needed files. An Azure subscription is required to provision the Application Insights app. You can sign up with a free developer subscription for testing. You are required to enter a credit card, but not to fear, Microsoft provides a spending limit of $0 so you will not be charged if you don't want to be. A developer account is refreshed with 25 credits monthly, no charge. A provisioned Applications Insights app Remember there is a daily space cap for the free Application Insights… so you'll need a paid account for a production instance… or really clean logs :) Steps to get it going: Get the goods (dlls and configs) Log in to dev.sitecore.net Navigate to the download page for your version of sitecore Download a package from the "Download options for Azure AppService" section. Choose XPO (single instance), it is the smallest. These packages are typically used with Sitecore's Azure Toolkit to provision the resources and deploy a clean install of Sitecore as an Azure App, but we just be pulling a few of the files. Unzip the downloaded file Drill down to the scwdp.zip file and unzip that too Drill down to the /Content/Website folder Copy what we need The source will be the ../Content/Website folder from the downloaded deployment package The target will be the Website folder of whichever Sitecore instance you are working with NOTE: there are a couple paths you could go here. You could either install the Application Insights nuget package in you code solution in order to get the dependency dlls and Webconfig transformations, or you can just extract what you need from the sitecore package. I opted for the latter. Identify and copy these files: /ApplicationInsights.config /App_Config/Include/zzz/Sitecore.Cloud.ApplicationInsights.config /bin/ Microsoft.AI.* Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.* Sitecore.Cloud.ApplicationInsights.* Add this connection string to /App_Config/ConnectionStrings.config <add name="appinsights.instrumentationkey" connectionString="place-your-guid-key-here"/> The value of the connectionString is the Instrumentation Key, found under properties. Add sections to the Web.config. NOTE: I chose to copy these areas from the Sitecore package to match that version of Application Insights instead of using the Application Insights NuGet package. It's worth noting there are some configs worth reviewing at the bottom of the config file "zzz/Sitecore.Cloud.ApplicationInsights.config". Performance counters are defaulted off, but can be enabled. You can also set the ApplicationInsights.Role setting with labels like "CD" or "CM" if you want to consolidate logs from several Sitecore instances into one account and filter by the instance. Sitecore posted documentation showing how to navigate the logs in Application Insights. There are many other benefits too like smart monitoring and reporting features.

After gaining experience designing custom platforms, e-commerce, and automation solutions James joined AmericanEagle.com in 2013, focusing on Sitecore.

Is Lying Actually Good for Kids?
The next time your child vehemently denies eating any candy (even though the chocolate smeared on her face tells a different story) or says "It wasn't me!" while standing next to the shards of what used to be your favorite vase, don't panic. According to researchers, catching your child telling tall tales marks a key milestone in their cognitive development.
Dr. Kang Lee, a professor at the University of Toronto, has spent more than two decades studying how and why kids lie and is convinced that the emergence of such behavior in toddlers should be a cause for celebration, not alarm. He considers the behavior a reassuring sign that kids' cognitive growth is on the right track and that it doesn't necessarily indicate that they're primed for a lifetime of trouble.
Small Kids, Tall Tales
If you're constantly floored by your kid's blatant deception and worry that he or she will be a pathological liar by the time they hit adolescence, this should put your mind at ease: It's perfectly normal childhood behavior.
Even more comforting is the realization that most children tell fibs at some point. Research shows that kids start lying at a very young age, with 30 percent of verbal 2-year-olds giving it a go. By age 3 about half of them are doing it and at age 4 the number goes up to 80 percent. By the time kids get to ages 5 to 7 nearly all of them can pull off a convincing lie. So your kids are in good company.
As children grow, they experiment with the truth with varying degrees of elaboration — and success. Toddlers are only starting to develop their sense of self and don't quite grasp the difference between truth and fiction so they tell classic self-serving lies, known as primary lies, which are easy to catch. However, they do become better liars with age. By age 7 or 8 they've progressed to tertiary lies and can make follow-up statements to keep their untruths consistent, stumping most adults.
A Sign of Healthy Child Development
Catching your kid in a lie can be troubling but it turns out that it's a sign of their healthy development. Research conducted by Dr. Lee and others suggests that children who lie have:
- Better executive functioning skills. Simply put, executive functions are a set of mental skills that help you stay on task and get things done. They help you manage yourself and the resources available to achieve a goal. As research has shown, kids who lie demonstrate good working memory, which is required to remember details of the truth and separate it from their fibs. They also have better inhibitory control, shown by how they squelch the urge to tell the truth as well as the ability to shift focus, plan ahead and go through with the lie.
- More advanced cognitive development. Cognitive development refers to how a person thinks, explores and figures out the world. Children who lie have a heightened ability to see the world from another person's perspective, what is called the Theory of Mind. This helps them realize that their actions might make you distressed, angry or upset, causing them to use lies to cover up what they've done.
- Higher verbal IQ. Coming up with nicely crafted stories involves a complex process and is indicative of your child's verbal intelligence. To come up with a lie, your kid needs to analyze information and use language to try reason with you and well…tell you a lie. This shows that they can process information and solve problems using language-based reasoning.
- Higher creativity. Some of the tall tales our kids weave are real feats of imagination. It's quite impressive what they can come up with from imaginary friends to tales of adventure. Whichever way you look at it, it takes creativity to pull off a credible lie.
What to Do When Kids Lie
Knowing that lying is an indicator of a child's intelligence presents quite a paradox for parents. Sure lying might mean your kid is intelligent, but you also want them to be honest. So how can you get them to value honesty?
For starters, realize that corporal punishment might be counterproductive. Instead, use more positive messaging and feedback to emphasize the benefits of honesty. So show your approval whenever you catch your kid being honest. Additionally, cultivating an environment of open communication with your kids will help them feel comfortable talking and disclosing the truth.
Above all, be a good role model for your kids to emulate. Children are keen observers and seeing you being dishonest will undermine your message of honesty. So watch what you do and say.

Yes, I haven't blogged in ages. My battle with depression and chronic pain are trying to consume me. However, I'm fighting a pretty good fight. I'm trying new meds which is never fun. The side effects are making me physically sick. Upset tummy and insomnia to list a few symptoms. I'm also attending physical therapy for the last couple of months and still working full time. It has been a struggle by I'm surviving and as always Dan has been my rock. Thank goodness I'm pretty darn lucky to have a hubby like him. He's taken over most of the cooking and getting better at it with each dish. I try to encourage him and tell him that a man that can cook is "VERY SEXY". Nothing is sexier than a man breading chicken unless he's baking chocolate lava cake. I love delicious chocolate.
Boo is getting older and is now incontinent so he is wearing a "male wrap" to help reduce his accidents. I still love him and get a kick out of his silliness. He loves to just hang out on Dan or my lap. I have given him the nickname the "meditation Dog", Boo goes out to the yard through his doggie door and stands outside surveying his domain for hours on end. I find it quite strange and enduring and have no idea why he does it.
We have two wedding this year. In October my sister will be getting married. Next month my girlfriend since I was (3) will be married. These weddings have me busy and happy. I'm searching for the perfect dress for the weddings. I fell in love with one of the Duchess' of Cambridge outfits during the Jubilee Celebration last week. I'm searching for a knock off I think I found one._________________________________________________________________________________
Dan's health is not 100%, these days he will need surgery on this knee, neck and shoulder poor Dan is falling apart. The surgeries are microscopic that is the only great thing about this situation. This will help with his recovery time. Dan is planning to have his procedures at the end of July within weeks of each other. He also has training next month for work, Dan is a busy guy. I would appreciate it if everyone can keep him in their prayers.
Last week would have my grandmother's (82) birthday. She was called home (9) years ago and I miss her terribly. Next week will be the one year anniversary of my mother-in-law's Laverne being called home. I miss Laverne's humor we always talked on the phone. I still have her phone number programmed into my phone.___________________________________________________________________________
This month my Sienna turns (4) years old and each day she gets smarter, funnier and is always fearless. Her mom and I were on the phone. So, as she put it took care of things! She told her mom:
Mommy you were on the phone Titi Net so I put the spider in the garbage.Yes! Friends there was a spider in her room and since her mom and I were talking on the phone Sienna picked up a spider and throw it out because we were too busy for her. NOTHING bothers or scares Sienna. She is a leader not a follower. She does her own thing and rarely conforms and sees no issues with her choices.
Next month Dan's friend Bob will be visiting for a bit. I hope we don't drive him too crazy. He will be trying to help us organize this crazy household. It will be interesting since we have a hard time parting with things. I hope Bob can cope in this loud, crazy, silly house. I welcome the help and suggestions he is bringing to this home.

Michael Smith replied to Michael Smith's topic in Pre 1.8 beta thread archiveWow. I see it now... a very faint ring progresses around the image. and the cloud symbol gets a tiny red X in it. This is quite minor in grand scheme of a beta, but as the "front door" to your product, might want to update this to be a bit more "in your face" clear that a download is in progress, and an affirmation that the download is complete. Thanks for setting me straight! Michael

Get ready to meet Britain's Worst Innkeeper.
Put your feet up and tuck into the mince pies, because you won't have to lift a finger to enjoy this Christmas at the Falling-Down Guesthouse!
Too bad the same can't be said for single mother and extremely undomestic goddess, Lottie. When her beloved Aunt Kate ends up in hospital just before Christmas, Lottie and her seven-year-old daughter rush to rural Wales to take over her B&B. A picky hotel reviewer and his mad family are coming to stay, and without the rating only he can give them, Aunt Kate will lose her livelihood.
But Lottie can barely run her own life, let alone a hotel. How will she manage to turn the falling-down guesthouse into the luxurious wonderland the reviewer expects? And could the mysterious taxi driver, Danny, who agrees to help her, turn out to be the real gift this season?
Lottie is a single mother to daughter, Mabel. The only other family Lottie has is Aunt Kate who lives in Wales.
When something happens to her Aunt just before Christmas, Lottie and Mabel travel to Wales to run Kate's B&B. Lottie has to help Kate get an important rating in order to keep the business open. When she gets there, she finds that it is going to be more of a challenge than she thought.
This novella is set over Christmas so it already had me excited to read it. It was lovely to read something Christmassy and has got me in the mood for the festive season nicely.
Lottie is truly thrown in the deep end and I really felt for her as a character. It seems to be one thing after another for Lottie and yet she still tries to keep her sense of humour and attempts to remain calm. Danny is also an interesting character and the two had a good dynamic together. Both are loveable characters.
The setting for this book sounds so beautiful. I wanted to jump into the novel.
From the beginning, the plot had me hooked. I wanted to know what happens to all these people. The story is well-developed. I want to know what happens next through. I was also intrigued by Kate's life prior to the story.
This novel is about what is important especially as Christmas. A sweet, warm seasonal novella that's a perfect way to get you into the Christmas spirit.

Hey girl,
It has come to my attention, that as you enter your thirties, self-care becomes a non-negotiable. At least, it should be a non-negotiable by the time you hit that decade.
Let's face it- life gets pretty tedious in your thirties. Usually, there's a marriage, a mortgage & kids thrown into the mix by then. Full-time job? I know, you're exhausted.
Well, your biggest mistake was having those damn kids. 'Cuz even if your marriage is shitty, you can at least extract yourself easier without those leeches than with.
Crass, I know. Just being honest. And. If you haven't learned by now that I'm very anti-kid, PAY ATTENTION!!
So what's your self-care? Gym? Massages? Therapy? Meditation?
Please have something in the life mix. Something that is just for YOU. For relaxation. For some damn head space you can claim as your own.
And I order you- DO NOT FEEL GUILTY OVER YOUR SELF-CARE. Don't you dare. You have to deal with the stress of job, marriage, kids, juggling it all- do not feel guilty over that 10 minute massage you agreed to after your pedicure. It felt sooo fucking good, right? Think of how much good that endorphin rush did for you- you probably went home in a much better mood, right? Played with your kids a bit? Maybe gave your husband a blow job? EVERYONE BENEFITS.
Take your moments, babe. You deserve it.

Let the glorious proclamation Hope restore and faith increase;
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Come, thou blessed Prince of Peace.
She shall yet behold thy glory, When thou comest back to reign;
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Let each heart repeat the strain.
But, in heav'nly vestures shining, They their loving Christ shall see;
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Haste the joyous jubilee.
Let the mighty advent chorus; Onward roll from tongue to tongue;
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!" Amen.
To still have sermons and devotional classics available to read is a remarkable testimony for our instruction from his heart and lips. He truly wrote for the ages. And of course, it is as we faithful pastors preach the inexhaustible riches of God's Word that our sermons become timeless in their comfort and instruction. Lay people! Treasure pastors who are faithful to proclaim the whole counsel of God to you. They are few and far between in our generation.

The spark of love you see in her eyes, the gentle hint of a smile in her curved lips, the soft touch of her fingers on your head, the warmth of her hand when she holds yours to lead your way, the security you felt when she cradled you against her chest, and the assurance that she will never stop showering you with love and warmth.
That is beauty.
And that beauty can only be defined by a woman.
Right from being a little girl to growing up into a woman, she faces everything that life bestows upon her with a smile. Her strength cannot be described in words but only in the way she deals with situations. Her dedication can only be referred to her success.
Woman is the luck, woman is the power,
Woman is the shield, woman is the flower.
So here's wishing all you beautiful women out there,
Happy Women's Day.

Some new p-quinones were prepared by reacting the compound 2,3,5,6- tetrabromo-benzoquinones with p-aminoacetophenone. The resulted compounds were cyclized with hydroxylamine to furnish the required compounds .The structures of the prepared compounds were elucidated spectroscopically through IR, 1HNMR, and MS. These compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities against four standard bacterial organisms.
p-aminoacetophenone, p-quinones, Aromatic aldehydes, Antibacterial.
Quinones are powerful intermediates for organic synthesis, because they possess both reactive carbonyl and olefinic bonds and occur frequently within structures of natural products [1]. The synthesis of quinones is important in organic chemistry because they are not only useful intermediates, but also many are pharamucologically active compounds [1]. They are Micheal acceptors and represent a class of toxicological intermediates which can create a varity of hazardous effects i.e. acute cytotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and carcinogenesis [2]. Quinones, by their antioxidant activity, improve general health conditions. Many of the drugs clinically approved or still in clinical trials against cancer were quinones related compounds. They are fast redox cycling molecules and have the potential to bind to thiol, amine and hydroxyl groups [3,4].
p-quinones compounds which are containing both electron withdrawing and donating substituents proved to be effective and give products in good yields [5,6].They were known to possess antitumor activity, antimicrobial activity and antimalarial activity [5].
In this work, p-quinones were synthesized by the reaction of bromanil with p- amino acetophenone to give product which was treated with different aromatic aldehydes in presence of ethanolic NaOH. The produced compounds were cyclised with hydroxylamine to furnish the p- quinones derivatives that can be used in the search for better antimalarial, antitumor, and antimicrobial drugs.
Melting points were uncorrected and were recorded on melting point apparatus (Gallenkmp, England) by using open capillary tube. IR spectra were recorded on FTIR spectrometer (Perkin Elmer model 8400s) using KBr disc method.
1HNMR were recorded on (Brucker AMX 400 MHZ) spectrometer in DMSO as solvent and TMS as internal standard.
Mass spectra were recorded on shimadzu QP-2010 Plus spectrometer at 70 eV.
Preparation of 2,5- diaminoaryl-3,6-dibromo-1,4-Benzoquinone (I)
0.003 mole of Bromanil and 0.002 mole of p-aminoacetophenone were dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol, 10 ml of glacial acetic acid, 2 ml of water and 0.1 g of sodium acetate was added. The mixture was refluxed for 3 hours. Then it was poured into ice-water. 10% of HCl drops was added, and stirred until the precipitate was formed. The precipitate was filtered, washed and recrystallized from ethanol. The completion of the reaction was monitored by TLC (Figure 1).
General procedure for the preparation of α, β unsaturated carbonyl compounds derivatives (IIa, IIb, IIIc, IIId)
0.001 mole of compound (I) and 0.002 mole of Benzylaldehyde, furfural, salicyaldehyde, anisaldehyde were dissolved respectively in 20 ml ethanol. Sodium Hydroxide solution (2M) was added slowly and the mixture was stirred for 24 hours. Then it was poured into ice-water, 10% of HCl drops was added, and stirred until the precipitate was formed. The precipitate was filtered, washed and recrystallized from ethanol. The completion of the reaction was monitored by TLC [3].
General procedure for the preparation of p- quinones derivatives (IIIa, IIIb, IIIc, IIId)
0.001 mole of the α ,β unsaturated carbonyl compounds derivatives of (IIa, IIb, IIc,IId) and 0.002 mole of hydroxylamine and sodium acetate 0.1 g were dissolved in 20 ml ethanol and refluxed for 6 hours.The mixture was poured into ice-water and stirred using the glass rod until the precipitate was formed. The precipitate was filtered, washed and recrystallized from ethanol. The completion of the reaction was monitored by TLC.

Antibacterial activity
The target compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity using a disc diffusion method. The disc diffusion method was used to screen the antibacterial activity of some para-quinones derivatives compounds and performed by using Mueller Hinton agar (MHA).The experiment was carried out according to the National Committee for clinical Laboratory Standards Guidelines [NCCLS, 1990].
Bacterial suspension was diluted with sterile physiological solution to 108.
Cfu/ml (turbidity=McFarland Standard 0.5). One hundred microliters of bacterial suspension were swabbed uniformly on surface of MHA and the inoculums was allowed to dry for 5 minutes. Sterilized filter paper discs were placed on the surface of the MHA and soaked with 20 μl of the solution of each compound. The inoculated plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 hour in the inverted position. The diameters (mm) of the inhibition zones were measured.
The average of the diameters of the growth inhibition zones are shown in the table below. The results were interpreted in terms of the commonly used terms (sensitive, intermediate and assistant.
|Conc. (µl)
|Compound No.
|1 4
|1 3
|1 6
Table 1: Antibacterial activity of synthesized compound.
12-18 mm growth inhibition zones is considered to be active, more than 18 mm is very active, values 9-12 are partially active, values less than 9 mm is less reactive.
It was observed in the above Table 1, the comparison between the synthesized compounds, that the electron-donating effect of the amino group decreases the biological effect probably by lowering the oxidant capacity of the p-quinones system.
• E.C: Escherichia coli
• P.S: Pseudomonas aeruginosa
• S.a: Staphylococcus aureus
• B.S: Bacillus subtilis
• Ca: Candida albicans
M.D.I.Z: diameter or growth inhibition zone (mm).
In this work the target molecules i.e. the p- quinones which lost their aromaticity. They undergo nucleophilic subsitution reaction with the nucleophile (the amino group) because of the liability of bromine. Reaction of the intermediate 2,3,5,6-tetrabromo-1,4-Benzoquinone with p- aminoacrtophenone lead to the formation of compound (I) which was treated with the aromatic aldehydes (benzaldehyde,furfural, salicyaldehyde, anisaldehyde) respectively in ethanolic NaOH at room temperature gave the compounds (II-V). These compounds upon cyclization with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in presence of sodium acetate and ethanol lead to the formation of the crossponding p- quinones derivatives (VI-IX). The synthesized compounds were purified by recrystallization from ethanol, and their purity was checked by melting point and TLC. They were spectroscopically elucidated through IR, 1HNMR,and Ms.
1HNMR spectra of the intermediate compound (1) showed 6-H protons as singlet in the region 2.08-2.55 ppm due to the two methyl groups, compounds II-V showed a sharp signal of 1-H proton at range 3.79-4.76 ppm due to the deshielding that can be rationalized on the basis of the lone pair of nitrogen atom.The aromatic protons appeared at 7.22-8.06 ppm. The 1HNMR of the p- quinones derivatives (VI-IX) showed the aromatic protons as a multiplied in the range 7.22-7.89 ppm. The isoxazole of these products was displayed as a singlet signal of one proton at 6.14-7.11 ppm due to the proton of isoxazole ring. A singlet signal also appeared at 2.50 ppm due to the lone pair effect of the nitrogen atom.
In conclusion, it was recommended to examine the newly synthesized compounds i.e. (p- quinones derivatives) against the wide spread diseases such as malaria cancer, etc., because they act as potential anticancer, antimalarial agents.

Dragging belongings by the bagful or in some cases, chucking them out of windows, people who live in an eight-unit apartment complex on Boxwood Street in North Sacramento were racing against the clock before the building was condemned and closed forever on Thursday.
"Everybody in this place has to get their stuff out in less than an hour, he just gave us an extra couple hours today, or else we would have had to get out by 5 o clock yesterday afternoon," Debborah Casillas, a mother of a tenant told FOX40.
Documents indicate the property is in foreclosure. It's also in terrible condition. Citing rodent infestations and structural issues, the property has been tagged as unlivable, conversely leaving residents without a home.
"I'm gonna have to move in with a family member or something like that, in the meantime, I don't really know," said tenant LaBrandon Grayson.
With U-Hauls backed up, piece-by-piece, it was a hasty attempt for some to pack up a life without perhaps a place to move it.
"I knew there was a foreclosure, but we didn't really find out, they just kinda crept on us with it, out of the middle of nowhere, you know what I mean?," Grayson told FOX40.

Dreams to Dream is a song by James Horner and Will Jennings, based on a short instrumental piece from An American Tail (which can be heard in the Orphan Alley scene), appearing in the 1991 animated film An American Tail: Fievel Goes West. There are two versions of the song in the film, one with Cathy Cavadini performing Tanya's version and the other being Linda Ronstadt performing the finale version, which includes extra lyrics. Released as a single on MCA in late 1991, the song climbed to #13 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart but did not cross over to the Hot 100. The music video features Ronstadt performing the song intercut with clips from Fievel Goes West. The composition was nominated in 1992 for a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture.
In the film, Tanya sings this song as she's performing chores for her family. Cat R. Waul overhears her and becomes captivated by her voice, bringing her to his saloon to be a singer. This song is part of Tanya's trademark.
Opening Monologue (Fievel and Friends Album Only)
Fievel: Dreams? I always had dreams. Wonderful dreams. Dreams can take you anywhere, and you can be anything you want to be in dreams. The trick is to make some of those dreams come true. Listen while my sister Tanya tells you all about some of her dreams.
I lose my way, no one cares.
The words I say, no one hears.
My life it seems, is a world of dreams.
Deep in the night, you'll find me.
Dream and you're right behind me.
Stay if you will stay
We'll dream the night away.
Dreams to dream in the dark of the night
When the world goes wrong, I can still make it right
I can see so far in my dreams
I'll follow my dreams
Until they come true.
There is a star waiting to guide us
Shining inside us when we close our eyes.
Come with me, you will see what I mean,
There's a world inside no one else ever sees.
You will go so far in my dreams,
Somewhere in my dreams,
Your dreams will come true.
Don't let go, if you stay close to me
In my dreams tonight, you will see what I see
Dreams to dream, as near as can be
Inside you and me, that always come true,
Inside you and me, that always come true.
- The movie version, sung by Cathy Cavadini as Tanya, leaves out the first seven lines.
- According to her website, Cathy Cavadini was chosen to voice Tanya by James Horner himself, who liked her singing voice. A previous voice actress had already voiced Tanya, and had to be dubbed over by Cavadini.
- The song was covered by Vikki Watson in An American Tail: A Musical Adventure With Fievel and Friends.
- The song is sung by Cathy Cavadini again in the Fievel's American Tails episode "The Legend of Mouse Hollow".
- The only time the song was performed without Tanya's involvement at all was in the An American Tail Live Show, where it is sung by Fievel and Tiger.
- As has been noted many times, there is a hidden obscene image for one frame during the song, when Cat R. Waul picks Tanya up in his hands. It is possible that either it could perhaps have been an accident while in production or it was a part of the collected dust from 35mm printings. This image can even be seen on DVD's of the movie. However, the Blu-ray removed that image to avoid anymore controversies.

Being a college student is neither stressful nor fun. It is just a part of life for some of us fortunate kids whose family is able to provide such support for high education. Well, it is possible not every teen our age are in school as they may drop out and pursue something else they are passionate about.
However, since I belong to the percentage of striving for a degree hoping to improve my future for the better course (Asian's mindset); I will be taking a Midterm exam, it is. How do one study for the test though? Me?
I was running an errand for my broken laptop. There goes my monthly expense. :'D Yay, Apple fan. Couples of hundred buck down the drain. Wooooooo!
Thus, what was I going to do afterward? I was already out of cash while walking around looking at expensive brand name clothes and cosmetics. I decided to walk out of the department store for cheap food outside. I was hungry.
As a college student outside the country, it was a memorable experience to look back to. I was stressed whether I might fail and disgrace my family name, my homeschool, and myself. Then, there I was eating and enjoying life for a short moment. Weird, but made sense. Kinda. It is exactly what I am doing right now back at home. Kinda care about my grade, but also procrastinating my life away. :'D Hmm.
Talk to you next Monday and please give me some encouragement. Haha! x'D
