As the next morning Chris was still looking to Sylph. He had watched her the whole night as if he wanted to remember her face forever. He smiled and even though he was freeing by the cold he didn't want to move since Sylph was still sleeping snuggled onto him. He smiled and nuzzled her softly to wake her.
The female Pikachu blushed and opened her eyes looking to him confused. "W-What?"
Chris blushed a bit. "We should get ready… the travel will go on soon and we have to get through that forest…"
She blushed and nodded.
He giggled. "By the way. You nuzzled my tail the whole night long."
She widely blushed and quickly stood up. "S-Sorry…"
He smiled. "You don't need to be." He softly stroked her head.
She widely blushed and nuzzled his hand shyly.
He giggled. "You looked very cute while you slept."
She widely blushed and squeaked cutely. "T-thank y-you so much! B-but were you watchin

Meanwhile in Spain…
Meanwhile in Spain, people don't seem to get that Europe is once again saved… Oh those silly Spaniards.
As Spain announces more austerity, the country has erupted in violence. This report, which dives into the heart of the violent protests, reveals a shockingly deep divide between government and people.
"The government is trying to scare the people," one protester says, following the government's dubbing of a protest outside the congress as a possible coup d'etat. It ramped up the already tense mood among a people that blame the right wing government for Spain's economic problems. As protesters refuse to leave and sit down in non-violent protest, the police break off into small groups and chase them down. "The police started to charge indiscriminately toward anyone. We are returning to fascist repression." Rubber bullets and bricks fly back and forth in street exchanges of a shocking intensity. "We are not animals! We are people!", one woman pleads with the police. But the police don't wait long before storming down the streets, shooting rubber bullets at close range into fleeing crowds. The streets may be clear for now, but as the crisis in Spain deepens with no end in sight, popular resistance towards the government and it's austerity project is only intensifying.

Foreign Office: Prepare for riots in euro collapse
According to The Telegraph British embassies in the eurozone have been told to draw up plans to help British expats through the collapse of the single currency, amid new fears for Italy and Spain.
Diplomats are preparing to help Britons abroad through a banking collapse and even riots arising from the debt crisis.
The Treasury confirmed earlier this month that contingency planning for a collapse is now under way.
A senior minister has now revealed the extent of the Government's concern, saying that Britain is now planning on the basis that a euro collapse is now just a matter of time.
"It's in our interests that they keep playing for time because that gives us more time to prepare," the minister told the Daily Telegraph.
Yeah, that sure sounds like "fun"…

Last time Officers were announced in Developer Diary 5, we only showed some graphical assets and plans. This time, this log is going to disclose some special features belonging to the afformentioned units who will be commanding you men to a (hopefully) convinced victory.
- Unit type specific. Yes, Helicopter and Submarine officers too!
- You can expect them to have suitable stats which reflect their experience and wisdom in the field
- What comes with experience and wisdom? Leadership of course. Your Divsion/Wing/Task Force (D/W/TF) will most definitely benefit from having an officer present for whatever is to come.
- Officers know the way: You can have multiple officers in a D/W/TF, this will give your units an edge especially if you plan it right
- Have we perfected cloning technology? No. Your officers are not clonable meaning you can only have one unique officer at a time present in your game .
- Officers will be dependent on their doctorine. This means your Eastern Friendly Officer will have different ways of handling things, and brings different benefits to your units, even if slightly. This better suits the play style a player might approach depending on the doctoring which they are playing as
- Your officer most definitely will benefit from dedicated research

text: I recently decided to go to a blonde/brownish color with teal & purple tips. Scored some Ion ready to apply color dyes for $3 a tube!! Since my hair was already lightened from the coloring I did before, bleaching was not required woohoo. These colors are ready to apply so easy straight from the tube. You leave it in for 20-30mins rinse the dye out and ta-da instant fun color! It lasts only 3 Weeks with normal washing and the color does not run in the rain to stain clothes like Manic Panic does, still love Manic P though. Well here is what I used and my results. Just another fun way to express yourself and not feeling guilty/regret cause its not costly or permanent. Would def try more colors again!

Skye off the diving board:
Just wanted to mention that she is the one who suggests diving off of the diving board every time. It is no one's idea other than Skye's!
There is a lot happening in the center of town between the festivals and the Christmas decorations. Parking is always a nightmare or too expensive. So I have decided to take the train with Skye today, all by ourselves. We usually go on such adventures with friends so they can navigate and show us the way. I always followed. I never know where I am and how I got there.
This is one of the most horrific stories ever published on this blog. You have been warned.

Global Warming Argument Speech
Argument Speech: "For or against the case for man-made global warming" Y2K, May 21, 2011, December 21, 2012, what do all these dates have in common? A prediction about the end of the world. Many hear the words "global warming" and think the same thing. As Jonathan Kent in the recent Superman movie Man of Steel: "People are afraid of what they don't understand." We don't understand global warming, there is a plethora of propaganda, and uncertainty. What we do understand is that there are problems in every area of society...and we're motivated by the fear that maybe we've messed up the earth itself too. This is especially true in the West, where some enjoy the luxuries energy has produced -- electricity, refrigerators and easily accessible clean water. A billion people currently live without what has become commonplace to us and we feel guilty about what we have, how we've allegedly used the planet to suit our needs. Caught up in the idea that life was simpler in a bygone era, some wish we didn't have to deal with the "inconveniences" of technology -- the absence of which would leave us with an "unsanitary, difficult and short life." Many believe that man is at fault for global warming. A Gallup poll in 2012, found that the majority of Americans agree.1 I disagree, the case for man made global warming is based upon man made fear and guilt, not man made
We will see this three points: 1) What is global warming? 2) What drives it and 3) A proper response
1) According to NASA: "Global warming is the unusually rapid increase in Earth's average surface temperature over the past century primarily due to the greenhouse gases released by burning fossil fuels." The EPA explains that: "Greenhouse gases (GHGs) like water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) absorb energy, slowing or preventing the loss of heat to space. In this way, GHGs act like a blanket, making Earth warmer than it would otherwise be. This process is commonly known as the "greenhouse effect".
a. Proponents of man made global warming believe the increase in greenhouse gases will lead to the eventual end of the world. According to National Geographic, "Glaciers are melting, sea levels are rising, cloud forests are drying, and wildlife is scrambling to keep pace. It's becoming clear that humans have caused most of the past century's warming by releasing heat-trapping gases as we power our modern lives."2 b. 3 responses - water vapor, the sun, incomplete data: The largest, most abundant, most important contributor to the greenhouse effect, is water vapor which is completely natural, but makes up anywhere from about 75-95% of the earth's warming effect.3 c. In addition, ozone, cloud cover, volcanic and sunspot activity, orbital movement, and solar system affect the warmth of the earth. As Dr. Jason Lisle, an astrophysicist from Answers in Genesis stated, The sun goes through warming and cooling cycles, that while not fully understood, impact the earth's warmth. For example, the number of 1
sunspots varies over a 22 year cycle and higher sunspot activity is associated with higher temperatures on earth...For example, sunspot activity was very low during the period 1645–1715, at the depth of the Little Ice Age. In contrast, sunspot activity was high during the Medieval Warm Period.4 And Dr. Roy Spencer, climatologist and former NASA scientist, and supported by (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) NOAA, and the DOE (Department of Energy) said "The recent warming cycle that started in the 1970s, might have been due to these natural causes, but we've only had the instruments to document this for about the last 10 years.5 d. Scientists claim data going back...

Genbu InformationEdit
Genbu is a very large tortoise, with a spiked grey shell, with a snake wrapped around his midsection.
He is the 2nd boss encountered by your clan.
Unlike most tortoises, Genbu is capable of running at fairly high speeds, and can chase Ninjas for short periods of time. Genbu is first encountered in battle at Level 15.
Battle InfomationEdit
Health: 2600
Charge: The Genbu will charge at a single Ninja, doing heavy amounts of damage.
Laser Beam: Genbu will fire a large Laser Beam from its mouth, doing massive damage to all Ninja's.
Additional Abilities:Edit
Both abilities below are unique to the Genbu and are not seen in any battles against other Boss's , Players or Zombie Ninja's .
Heal: Genbu will heal himself.
Rage: Although not the official name, the state the Genbu enters is similar. This ability is initiated when the Genbu is down to 1000 Health or less, it will begin to glow red. During this period, its Attack and Healing Power are increased greatly.
Achievements & PrizesEdit
After defeating Genbu, the player will be awarded the "Tortoise Slayer" achievement. with a prize of 10 karma.
If the player defeats Genbu with only food items equipped (negi, shrimp, pocky stick,) the player earns another achievement, "Don't Shoot Lasers With Your Mouth Full", also worth 10 Karma.
Genbu is the only Boss to reward the player with a Relic for an additional prize, rather than a weapon. The Relic is Genbu's Scale with the boost of 10% Critical Hit Chance and 8% Attack Speed.
Upon defeat, the snake of Genbu wraps around the basket of the player's clan's Fight blimp.
Other appearancesEdit
Genbu, unlike other Game Bosses, is also encountered in a mini-game, in which the player rescues an ally's ninja.
During the rescue mission, the player must run away from Genbu while carrying the incapacitated body of their ally's ninja. At the same time, the play must dodge shurikens being throw from a blimp at the Genbu. With every hit the player takes, he or she will slow down, and, if hit enough, the player will be attacked by Genbu.
For every shuriken dodged, Genbu will be wounded, and eventually will give up chasing the player, ending the minigame. The player is graded based on how well they dodged the shurikens.

Resistance House Parties: July and August 2017
Welcome to summer!
With our values under attack in Washington there is a long road ahead for those of us who value equality, justice, and fairness. Here at home, state leaders put politics over people by abruptly adjourning the legislative session with hard fought legislation - from guaranteeing earned sick time, to disarming domestic abusers, to raising the minimum wage - left on the table.
At this critical time, it is more important than ever for communities like ours to make our voices heard here in Rhode Island. But getting involved shouldn't just be about marches and phone calls. Let's take a moment this summer to regroup and connect with those who live near us.
Come to a HOUSE PARTY!
At these house parties, we'll talk shop, we'll plan for the future, and -- and this is important -- we'll also have a great time! We'll drink, eat, and get to know each other, and set some goals to make sure our community and our state is headed in the right direction. We'll be joined by organizers from Planned Parenthood, Working Families Party, and the Sierra Club.
These parties will be hosted by members of the RHRI steering committee as well as people like you around the state. (We're still looking for more hosts! Email firstname.lastname@example.com if you can open your home to a small group of folks this summer!)


text: Blog 2013 January Fannie Mae wins $10 billion in loan settlement Previous Post | Next Post Fannie Mae wins $10 billion in loan settlement Posted By Whitley LLP Attorneys || 8-Jan-2013 Although a majority of Houston residents have heard about the recent mortgage crisis, or may have been personally impacted by it, very few people knew exactly how the crisis had started and why it was going to create further frustration in the future.For investors at Fannie Mae, the trouble began between 2000 and 2008 when Countrywide sold them hundreds of mortgages that were touted as being 'quality loans'. But when people began defaulting on their loans, investors realized that there was the possibility that Countrywide may not have sold them reliable mortgages.By the end of 2008, mortgage lenders such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were on the verge of bankruptcy, struggling to get the original lenders to pay up on the bad loans. When Bank of America finally bought out Countrywide in 2008, they became responsible for paying back what Fannie Mae had failed to get out of Countrywide.Recently, Bank of America has settled the long-standing argument between Fannie Mae who says that Bank of America is responsible for Countrywide's dishonesty when it came to the quality of its loans. In the settlement agreement, Bank of America has agreed to pay Fannie Mae back approximately $6.75 billion in residential mortgage loans as well as an additional $3.6 billion in cash.Although this business dispute ended successfully for Fannie Mae, other businesses may not be as lucky, especially those who do not seek legal representation in matters such as this. It's important for business owners and investors to know that in some cases, investments may be guaranteed. In cases such as that, it's almost always worth pursuing legal action in order to reclaim what you may have lost.Source: The Los Angeles Times, "Bank of America to pay Fannie Mae $10 billion in loan settlement," Jim Puzzanghera, Jan. 7, 2013 Categories: Tags: Business Litigation, Investments, lawsuits Share Post

This is a simple and yet delicious recipe. Chicken Katsu basically is fried chicken breast cutlet. The cutlet is breaded with flour, egg and panko before frying. Sometimes I prepare more and keep in freezer. I will bring down and keep in fridge the night before I want to cook for my kids' lunch box. Along with chicken katsu I prepare teriyaki sauce as well to eat with rice.
Adapted and slightly modified from Just One Cookbook
Chicken Katsu
2 chicken breasts
2 tablespoons sake (omit)
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour
2 eggs (I used 1 egg)
Oil for deep frying/ shallow frying
1. Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towel. Slice the chicken diagonally.
2. Put the chicken in a bowl and add sake (if using), salt, and pepper. Set aside for 15 minutes.
3. Dust the flour on the chicken and remove excess flour. Then dip it in beaten egg. Lastly, dredge the chicken in panko and remove the excess.
4. Heat wok and add in oil. Put 2-3 pieces of chicken in at a time. Deep fry or shallow fry until both sides are golden brown. Then transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined tray to remove excess oil.

More than half of the people on the planet live in cities, yet cities have been largely ignored by climate scientists. But city climate is important, because it can tell us a great deal about how climate change will affect billions of people.
The reason for this lack of research, says Dan Li, a College of Arts & Sciences assistant professor of earth and environment, is that until quite recently computer models lacked the power to properly study the climate of cities, which are minuscule compared to the areas usually covered by climate researchers.
Working through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP), Li and Yaofeng Gu (CAS'17) are testing a new climate model that incorporates these urban areas. UROP matches students with faculty mentors across the University and provides funding for projects.
On most temperature maps of the United States, it's easy to spot the cities because of what's called the urban heat island effect, which is caused by several factors. "One of the key reasons cities are hotter is that cities don't evaporate that much," says Li. "We use a lot of impervious surfaces, and impervious surfaces don't evaporate as compared to soil and trees, which can hold water from rain and then evaporate it back into the atmosphere—this is kind of a cooling effect—while cities just don't have this mechanism because we use a lot of concrete, asphalt, those types of things."
Cities also have unique properties, he says: for example, tall buildings create long shadows that influence temperature, making it hard to get an accurate read on climate models. Until recently, many modelers didn't even try. Heat islands can also skew older climate simulations. Older models might, for example, paint all of northern Ohio as unusually cooler because they neglected the influence of Cleveland.
One way to test a model intended to project the future is to test it on one from the past, so Gu has been plugging in historic climate data from across the continental United States from 1981 to 2000.
"Some people argue that if you can simulate the historic period correctly, it doesn't guarantee that you can simulate the future correctly," Li says. "This is true, but if you get the historical period wrong, then it is more likely that you will get the future wrong."
Gu says that he can simulate the past urban heat island effect down to less than a month. Plug in a date, and out pops the simulation: a map of the entire continental United States broken up into little shaded squares—or cells—of cold blues and warm reds. Each cell looks smaller than the head of a pin, but that's deceiving.
"They're actually huge," says Gu—each square is about 50 kilometers across, which is considered very fine detail in climate models, sufficient to separate out the cities from the rural areas. Their model, developed for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, will help form the sixth report of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an international organization for assessing the science related to climate change.
He emphasizes that this does not mean the new model can predict weather, "but we can use our model to more or less predict what the temperature will be," he says. "We can never give an exact account of what the future will be."
That's because these simulations have an inherent catch-22, says Keith Oleson, a project scientist at the federally funded National Center for Atmospheric Research, who also works on urban climate models. When you have more data "it becomes more difficult to understand, because you have so many processes that they're competing against each other, canceling each other out," Oleson says. "There is value in having a simpler model where you can really understand what is going on, but the danger is that you can miss some important processes."
"There's no absolute truth," says Gu. "We just try to be as accurate as possible with the model we have."1 Comments

|Mapping column types
|Fri, 23 Dec 2005 14:33:23 GMT
Hi! I'm switching currently from Torque 3.1 to 3.2 and have a problem with the column type boolean. I'm using MySQL 5.0.16 and the mysql connector 3.1.12. The table type is InnoDB. I've a table which contains a boolean, like this: <database name="test" defaultIdMethod="native" defaultJavaType="object"> <table name="test"> <column name="id" required="true" type="BIGINT" primaryKey="true" autoIncrement="true"/> <column name="myBool" required="true" type="BIT" default="0"/> </table> </database> The generated SQL syntax for the insert-sql task contains this: CREATE TABLE test ( id BIGINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, myBool BIT default 0 NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(id) ) Type=InnoDB ; The database accepts this syntax, but when I create a Test object and save it to the database the boolean flag is always false. test = new Test(); test.setMybool(new Boolean(false)); test.save(); I'm not sure, if this is a Torque problem, because the BIT feature is new to MySQL and there was at least one bug about it, that I've reported. But my workaround in Torque 3.1 was it to change the mapping from Java objects to MySQL types by editing the db.props in templates. There I've changed the BIT to TINYINT and everything was fine. Now in Torque 3.2 it seems to me, that this db.props file is no longer supported. Is this correct? Why? And what can I do to get Java boolean Object but a MySQL tinyint? The db.props also contains the table type (here InnoDB) settings. Where can I set the table type in Torque 3.2 now?

Zen Sleep Consulting topic at Kiwanis
"You cannot be great parents if you're completely exhausted," she said.
Schlect is a wife and mother of two children. She's also an occupational therapist who worked for Anne Carlsen Center before starting her own business. In recent years, she became a certified sleep consultant and a certified infant massage instructor. One of her goals for opening Zen Sleep Consulting was to "help people to enjoy sleep without pharmaceutical pills." As a sleep consultant, she creates a sleep plan, completes a sensory assessment of the home, educates patients on the science of sleep and provides daily support to carry out the sleep plan.
Schlect said one of her biggest passions is helping families with young children. She provided several tips for parents including avoiding sleep props, bedtime routines and more. One tip for children and adults alike is to avoid screen time for one to two hours before bed, which prevents your body from producing good melatonin to help you sleep. For more information, visit www.zensleepconsulting.com.
President Jason Gruebele led the meeting attended by 30 members. Don Caine led group singing accompanied by Sharon Caine. Krysten Perkins collected "Happy Dollars" for the Salvation Army. Tim Eggers will introduce Ben Maulding of the Jamestown Rural Fire Department as the speaker at the next Kiwanis meeting to be held on Nov. 27 at the Quality Inn & Suites.

The idea of audits probably irks the average person, invoking fears of having to retrieve crinkled receipts or pour over ancient invoices. Not all audits are financial, however, as some can be operational or technological, investigating anything from energy consumption to risk exposure. Yet all audits examine whether something is inaccurate, dysfunctional, or amiss, and thus can only at best confirm what was hoped or presumed to be true anyway. Information security leaders are not free from this burden, regularly having to provide audits of their services to appease clients and prove the efficacy of their defenses.
Security leaders don't like these audits. That much was apparent in recent IBM research that studied the roles and responsibilities of security professionals. The respondents explained their aversion to audits, calling the exercises expensive and time-consuming and, thanks to the rising incidence of data breaches, in high demand.
The irony is, considering their purpose in assuring safety, audits don't promote a thorough approach to security. Instead of examining entire security ecosystems, they encourage a checklist mentality that assumes protection is guaranteed based on the well-being of a mere sample. Moreover, the problems they do uncover are often repeats that keep security teams from investigating the underlying causes by focusing their resources on fixing recurring symptoms.
One answer to endless audits is automation—automated compliance monitoring, that is. Where audits and other repetitive security procedures lack, automation excels, providing a security perspective that is both faster and more holistic. Automated compliance tools assist every step of the way, continuously surveilling entire databases and systems, investigating and addressing suspicious incidents, translating findings and initiating report deliveries to reassure auditors.
Automated compliance monitoring is more than just an aspiration. Many an enterprise, aware of mounting regulatory requirements and the sky-high cost—in both dollars and public perception—of a security breach, are looking for ways to revamp their governance, regulation and compliance efforts. A 2014 report to the U.S. Congress on implementation of the Federal Information Security Management Act demonstrated how automation is fast becoming a standard in the public sector. For certain cohorts of federal agencies, automated configuration management jumped from 54 percent adoption in 2012 to 80 percent in 2013, while automated vulnerability management spiked from 65 percent to 87 percent in the same timespan.
So as the volumes of data and the responsibilities of their caretakers expand, proof of comprehensive compliance will become more complicated and also more often requested by clients. The key is to have a vigilant system with a panoramic view of security procedures, which is where automated compliance becomes a valuable instrument.

Obvious cases: > proxy, cache and ldap have been hugely re-hacked since anything in 2.0. Almost entirely by the developer/power user group who paid close attention to the flaws in the almost-unusable 2.0 implementation, right? All three should work orders of magnitude better than in 2.1. Of course auth, and proxy refactoring may still have (big) flaws. No problem, that's what the alpha/beta/GA cycle is ment to catch & address. We agreed post-2.0.36 that there should simply not be an /experimental/ tree in release versions. We didn't suggest that a module shouldn't be promoted, and actually argued that /experimental/ be gone from trunk. Classify the module correctly, commit working code, and at branch time we decide what will be 'pruned' - such as what you suggest for perchild. If you want to commit non-working, experimental code, then we can always roll another sandbox to 'play' in until there is something worthy of inclusion in trunk. Bill

Ahupua'a block printed design Kahala Sportswear
Original art commissioned by Kahala Sportwear. The colors were toned down from these ocean blues to more muted shades to go with shorts and pants for the printed fabric.

Hand carved vintage homemade surfboard turned into block print
I took this photograph today of this surf board inside Kahala Sportswear store.It's on display to show customers that the shirts in their line are all from an artist's studio.
Kahala products each have a story and this piece literally tells a story:
An abandoned handmade surfboard left on beach for days.
I carried it home after watching for 2 days to see if owner would claim it.
Stripped the duct tape, resin and fiberglass off of it .(Original board shown here)
Took my tracing paper layout and copied the art onto this board using graphite.
Carved images.
Inked board.
Printed image onto paper many, many times (10 + times )to get the perfect one.
Gave art to Dale Hope who sent it to Japan to be printed onto 3000 yards of fabric.
Thank you,

We use SCOM 2007 and also have Whatsup Gold. There is the issue of retiring Whatsup Gold. I did research on comparing the 2 products, but could not fine anything on it.
So if I could get some help with compraing the 2 products (what the 2 does, and what each does without the other product doing the same).
This topic was created during version 5.1.
The latest version is 7.5.00107.

I have used Whatsup Gold, and seems to be a decent product.
SCOM 2007 is Microsoft System Center Operations Manager, which i haven't used. Microsoft sometimes will discontinue some of their products so I never got on board with this. This was probably free with your licensing download.
Most people in corporate are using Solar Winds if they can afford it. It is probably the most powerful program out there.
For a hosted solution there is GFI Max.
How many users do you have?
Jimmy D
For SCOM it is not for the users. It is used to monitor systems, applications, services,etc. SCOM has evolved from MOM 2005. I have used solarwind and we are still using it here on our network. Solarwinds is mostly for network devices like routers, and swiches. It does not go as deep as monitroing things like hard drive, CPU, Services, applications. Pake a look at this link.

How about using spiceworks for some of the monitoring for the users? I am using spiceworks and GFI MAX. Spiceworks is ok and tells me all the information i need to know usually for the desktops.
Why do you want to retire WhatsUp Gold?
The biggest difference is that SCOM is only going to monitor your Windows servers/devices. If you are looking for a solution that will handle servers, networking gear (routers, switches, firewalls), and pretty much anything else that is connected to your network (printers, ups, environmental devices), then WhatsUp Gold is the better choice.
Thanks Jason. We have Orion in place already doing the network part. Scom is doing the the server, service and application part. We are not looking at using WUG for network devices.
I guess scom the do what WUG does better except the network devices side. Hope you agree with that.

Your participation will contribute greatly to the life and spirit of the mission.
The Seaman's Center's work is often unheralded but is a vital service to the shipping industry because it is part of a volunteer network of centers that care for the welfare of the 1.5 million global seafarers who we all rely on. Each year, the International Seaman's Center and its volunteers minister to over 7,000 seafarers who arrive on ships from every corner of the world in the Port City. They are a critical link in?facilitating global trade, delivering North Carolina's exports to overseas customers, and creating local jobs. Over 90 percent of world trade is transported on cargo vessels; and it can be a dangerous job at times. No matter what problem a seafarer is facing, they know when they arrive in the Port City they can turn to the International Seamen's Center for help, advice, and support. Our chaplains and volunteers offer practical and spiritual support and we maintain volunteer staff at the Center seven days a week. If you would like to make a world of difference, please consider joining us as a volunteer and become a world missionary without leaving home!

Our purpose at the International Seamen's Center is to minister to the spiritual, emotional and physical needs of the seamen who enter the Port of Wilmington. We accomplish this by showing the Love of Christ in God's Ministry at the Seamen's Center. By providing a "home-away-from-home" atmosphere the seamen will take this attitude home with them and share God's Love all over the world.The International Seamen's Center offers bibles, tracts, literature and the "Jesus" film in many languages to encourage the growth of Christ in the life of each seamen that visits our port. We offer to pray with them in groups or individually as needed in the situation. Church services are provided in the chapel area at the Seamen's Center or on board their ship.We have a passion for Christ and want to see all come to know Him. If this is your vision please contact us to become a part of this exciting and rewarding ministry. Serving through this ministry you can become an international missionary without leaving Wilmington.God Bless You,Ritchie & Henry

Specialist flooring does not have to be expensive.
For this Sanctuary Housing Care Flat in Glasgow, carpet was unsuitable so we installed
an R10 rated slip-resistant cushioned vinyl.
The cushioned backing provided a softer floor surface and acted as a liner on the poor chipboard subfloor eliminating the need for plywood.
Although the seams cannot be heat welded like a contract vinyl it is available in 3 and 4 metre widths meaning that seams can be eliminated from the rooms and only occur at the door thresholds.
The end result is a relatively cheap, durable slip-resistant floor which is attractive and comfortable to walk on.
Dec 28 2011
"Thank you for the brilliant job you did installing our new floor. It looks fantastic. Professional, tidy worker and a very competitive price. Would definitely use again."
Mrs. L. McKenzie, Glasgow

This time of year signifies the run up to Christmas and all the excitement of what that brings. When I was little, my mum would use this time of year to have a clear out and would get me and my sister to tidy out our bedrooms and get rid of some things. She used to say we had to make room for anything Santa might bring at Christmas and explained that some boys and girls weren't as lucky as us and might not get many presents from Santa. This was how she got us to clear out old clothes and toys and we would happily take them to the charity shops, knowing that some other children would get the nice toys we liked so much.
This has kind of stuck with me and when I'm having a clear out, I try to find the items a new home. I don't like throwing things in the bin (especially as they end up in the landfill) particularly when they have nothing wrong with them. I might not want it anymore but someone else would probably want it. That's my theory anyway!
After reading A Thrifty Mrs's recent decluttering post, it has spurred me on to have a clear out and get rid of some things. Although I haven't committed to the 90 items that she's ditching, I have found myself getting rid of a a lot of things. I've cleared out my wardrobe, my desk drawers and office and there's now a large selection of items in the charity shops that previously belonged to me. There are also some things that went to the recycling bin or which have been stored away in the 'to be upcycled into something else' pile. I've been slowly decluttering for a few weeks now and it feels liberating to get rid of the stuff that's been dragging me down. This decluttering has also transferred to my email inboxes (all 3 of them), my Facebook and Twitter feeds and even the blogs I'm subscribed to. I've deleted/unfollowed people and organisations that I'm no longer in touch with or interested in or which plain annoy me, which makes way for new additions. I feel like I've shifted some dead weight which was dragging me down and making my social media dull and uninteresting.
There are still things that need gotten rid off but I'm being careful not to take too much more on in the run up to Christmas. I've already earmarked January as the month to get rid of the utter crap that's in the loft. Our house is not the biggest and we do have a storage issue so we cannot afford to hoard stuff that no longer has a place in our lives. It's rather addictive once you get started! For me, decluttering means freeing up space not just in my home but in my mind too. It makes me feel lighter.
I recommend ruthless decluttering on a fairly regular basis in order to keep on top of it. Here's a few questions I ask myself in order to speed up the process:
What is is?
Do I like it?
When did I last use it?
Will I use it again?
Will I miss it?
How can I get rid of it?
Go on, spend ten minutes decluttering and see how much better you'll feel!

You will need to do the research that it takes to find out which services are the best, so that you can feel fully relaxed when it comes to the ones who will be giving you a ride. You won't want to be stressed out about the way that they will be caring for you, and you won't want to be thinking that they might show up late. Instead of stressing over things in regard to the medical transports service you are using, you should instead do your research carefully and choose the best service around.
Find medical transports that will make it their top priority to care for you, and you will feel good about having them around. Talk with your friends and see if they have any suggestions for you when it comes to all of this. They might know of a great service that will offer you the kind of peace and reassurance that you are looking for. They might know just who you should be going to for this, and you will feel great if you are able to take their advice and find a great service because of it.
There are many medical transports out there, and you will want to pick the right service to be there for you and to care for you in your times of need. You will need to pick a service that is all about doing a good thing for you, so that you will never have to doubt them. Find a service that cares for you, and you will feel great about all that will get done. There are many medical transports out there, and you will need to do your research on all of them, so that you can find the best one to care for you.

It was just by good happenstance that EverQuest Next Landmark became as big of a project as it has, with a now projected 20,000 alpha players, who are considered by SOE's Dave Georgeson to be part of the development team by default. With regards to the games direction and original purpose, the new alpha community could be considered a huge contribution to EQN's development over all.
Landmark is an explorers paradise inside of a sandbox lovers dream, placing the thrill of adventure inside of an environment completely designed to shape and shift. It started as only a beta release of the tools the development team harnessed to design EQN, but snowballed and morphed into it's own creative adventure by including a few of your classic PvE elements, such as enemies and loot.
As it was always part of the plan to have player input on designing EverQuest Next, Landmark has given players the ability to create blueprints for the things they design, which could potentially become part of the realm within EverQuest Next. With both player input and the same engine implemented as Planetside 2, there is a lot of potential for some delicious eye-candy in the near future.
Mutliple Founders Packs with different arranged benefits are available for purchase to get you started creating the EQN of the future.

They paid for to get in there early is the long and the short of it. That would give them a lot more time to get good with the crafting tools and such. Hope they enjoy it 😀 Looks interesting but way too time consuming for me. Almost like a much more attractive minecraft. Looking at some of the amazing stuff that was done in minecraft (with it simplistic graphics) I think this game would have creations that will shock and awe.
So players paying the developer to screw around and develop? what's next game makers paying players to play the game? lol you alpha buyers got marketed easier than a 2 dollar hooker on the weekend.
to the idiots thinking paying for this alpha was a stupid move.
Newsflash, this gives us an advantage to when the player market opens up and we make our money back 1-100 fold. The things you can do in this game have been very…. appeasing to me and I hate these kinds of games, I won't even touch minecraft but… this.. Loving it. Hating the down time but loving it.
@Gadur newsflash when the game is launched you have no advantage your back to square one its called a wipe guess you should have read the fine print before being so quick to spend that money. lol
Played alpha yesterday for a few hrs and I must say when this is released it will consume you
they have given us so many things to do and change to make your own
Yep, as I just read.
Yes, an NDA is in place.
NDA was dropped
Almost got tricked into getting Landmark, until I read it was different than EQN and why.
People who pay to get into alphas are sad, dumb creatures feeding a horrendously greedy beast.
Yes, people who pay to dedicate their time to making something better, so that arrogant pricks such as yourself get the most experience out of a game like EQNL, which by the way, ALSO greatly impacts Everquest Next, which I'm sure you obviously didn't know, since they use the same engine, and same… Well, everything actually.
Maybe you should try searching for that Ego, which seems to be crammed so far up your ass, and pull it out.
You know why people make others "Pay" for alpha's and Beta's Now? It's so every dirty turd, such as yourself can't get in, and it's dedicated for players who actually like to be a part of testing. AKA not you.
Thank you for enlightening this arrogant prick
You tried to make it sound like paying to play a broken game is a nice thing to do because "dedication" and not because the developers take advantage of dumb ass idiots like yourself, paying to play alphas and betas is stupidly wrong only done by the most moronic minds on this planet.
"You know why people make others "Pay" for alpha's and Beta's Now? It's so every dirty turd, such as yourself can't get in, and it's dedicated for players who actually like to be a part of testing. AKA not you." <- This just made me laugh so hard, your stupidity has no bounds.
@Anon I agree complete idiots. @Humor Do you understand that you are paying them money to allow you to do their job's for them? I think your just butt hurt cause Anon hit a sore spot on you yes you one of the "dumb ones". Paying that makes you dumb not dedicated, playing everquest from 1999-present that makes you a dedicated player.
so true so many fools get roped into buying early access for a game you have no idea if it is good or just piece of turd , but hey people are stupid and have no patience which companies know that so they take advantage of foolish kids
easy money for them
why pay for early access when anything you do gets deleted when it goes to open beta? thats just retarded
You can't REALLY be that stupid can you? I mean, you have to be trying to sound like an idiot.
SO hard resisting the temptation to buy a founders pack and get into this game.
Have to keep REMINDING myself that all the stuff I do will be wiped, the game will probably be really buggy and laggy and there wont be much to do besides making stuff.
Does anyone know if there is an NDA right now? I could at least watch livestreams
the NDA has been lifted but no videos up yet. im currently downloading and i might stream or make a video later. I will post if i do 😀
stuff that you buy with money will never go away.
extasist:"stuff that you buy with money will never go away." Tell that to shadowbane fans lol

Michael Clark Proves That (20/10 Vision) Does Exist In The Basketball World
If you don't know Michael Clark then it's about time you get...
However, the contest will mean different things to both schools.
For the Bears (5-1, 2-1 CIAA), they look to maintain their hold on the Western Division lead. As for the Broncos (3-3, 2-1), they're tied with Johnson C. Smith, a half-game behind Shaw.
A Fayetteville State victory would put them in the driver's seat in the division while a loss would all but eliminate their chances to play in the CIAA title game in November.
The Broncos have bounced back nicely after an 0-2 start. That includes last week's 37-17 win against Chowan. The FSU defense played its most complete game of the season by keeping the CIAA's leading passer, C.J. Westler in check.
Junior quarterback Tyler Hosler will get his second start at FSU against the Bears. Last week, the Peoria, Az. native finished 9-for-28 for 161 yards a touchdown and an interception. He'll look to give the Broncos their first home win (0-3) of the season.
The Bears currently lead the conference with 30 takeaways and have a +15 turnover margin.
They rallied from a 17-3 halftime deficit to defeat Saint Augustine's 42-32. Travis Robinson threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another, becoming one of eight Bears to score as they reeled off 26 unanswered points on their way to the victory.
FSU leads the all-time series 13-6-5. The teams have met five times since 2002, including the 2004 CIAA Championship game, and all five contests have been decided by 10 points or less.
The game will be nationally televised by the Urban Sports and Entertainment Group.
OTHER KEY GAMES PRAIRIE VIEW A&M at ALABAMA STATE Last week's win against Grambling State not only broke the Panthers' 21-game losing streak against the Tigers, it put Henry Frazier's squad (2-1, 2-0) in the driver's seat for the SWAC West crown. They'll travel to Montgomery to take on a Hornet squad (3-1, 0-1) that suffered their first loss of the season two weeks ago to Mississippi Valley State at the Chicago Football Classic. Despite the loss, ASU's defense has held their opponents scoreless in the second half in each of the last three games BOWIE STATE at ELIZABETH CITY STATE The Bulldogs (4-2) sit undefeated on top of the CIAA's East Division (3-0) and all truly control their own destiny. BSU has been the most balanced team in the league with the top-ranked offense and defense. The stalwart of the offense has been leading rusher Rodney Webb at 105 yards per contest. ECSU (4-2, 2-1) must bounce back quickly with no time to lick its wounds from last week's upset loss to Virginia State. Injuries have plagued the Vikings this season with stars Dexter Manley and DL Larry Jones unable to play in last Saturday's loss.
SOUTH CAROLINA STATE at NORFOLK STATE One week away from their home showdown with undefeated Florida A&M, the Bulldogs (3-1, 1-0 MEAC) travel to Dick Price Stadium to meet the pesky Spartans (2-2, 1-1). While SCSU played tough in suffering their first loss of the season at South Carolina, a win against NSU won't be easy. Dick Adrian's squad is coming off a 40-14 win over Bethune-Cookman two weeks ago. The NSU defense — which is ranked first in the MEAC (allowing 230.8 yards per game) — recorded a season-high five sacks, five interceptions and 11 tackles for loss in the win.
ALBANY STATE at MILES Two SIAC teams headed in different directions prepare to meet Saturday night in Fairfield, Ala. The Golden Rams (5-0, 4-0 SIAC) come in with the league's top scoring offense (34.6 ppg.)and its best passer — senior A. J. McKenna — who has completed 56% of his passes (60 of 107) for 12 touchdowns and just one interception. Since their upset win against Tuskegee, the Golden Bears (3-3, 3-2) have lost three of their last four games (the only win was a 6-0 decision over Clark Atlanta).

KITCHENER, Ontario (March 30, 1998) - Braun's Bicycle and Fitness, operating in downtown Kitchener since 1925, has always used cutting edge technology to help maintain a strong competitive presence. Over the last 3 years, this has included operating a powerful, secure Internet web site aimed at selling products directly to an International marketplace.
Their web site, called "Braun's Online" (www.brauns.com), has been extremely successful. Braun's regularly ships products all over the world, which consumers purchase directly from their web site using their credit card, or by arranging a direct bank transfer. The site has been so successful, in fact, that it's recently attracted the attention of Industry Canada, who have written a case study about the web site.
The study focuses predominately on how Braun's has successfully used cutting edge Internet technologies to dramatically increase their market and overall revenues. "Industry Canada wanted to demonstrate how a small business could use the Internet to increase revenues, and not just publish static information," says General Manager Robert Braun. "They we're very impressed with the commerce features we've implemented in order to sell and ship products to a worldwide market." Some of the custom features developed for Braun's Online include a searchable product database, secure online shopping capability, global shipping cost estimator and currency exchange calculator.
In addition to the technological aspects of Braun's Online which have made it successful, the Government study also highlights the "apparently unique" partnership between Braun's and The Galileo Group Inc., the Kitchener-based firm who developed the web site.
"Industry Canada was very interested in the close working relationship we've developed with Braun's over the last few years," says Galileo V.P. of Sales and Marketing, Bryon Thur. "Robert and his team constantly challenge us to develop new technologies and features which will help them sell more products. In exchange, they allow Galileo to use Braun's Online as a test bed for development and testing of these new features."
The case study which will be released on Industry Canada's popular Strategis web site in April, is a strong indicator that the years of working closely together have begun paying off. Galileo has recently packaged the Internet commerce software developed with Braun's in mind, and is successfully marketing it as Galileo Commerce. Similarly, sales generated from Braun's Online continue to grow, and new and improved features are introduced all the time.
The case study concludes with exactly this sentiment, stating that "for both companies... the overall results are unequivocally positive."
The Galileo Group Inc., located in the heart of Canada's Technology Triangle, is a supplier of high-performance, web-based computing solutions which help enterprises compete in the global marketplace. Galileo provides its clients with winning Internet and Intranet advantages through advanced networking infrastructures and integrated software solutions.
Braun's Bicycle & Fitness is located at 27 Scott Street in Kitchener, where they have sold high quality bicycle, fitness & fashion products since 1925.

How to Perform a Backup with iThemes Security
This section of the guide looks at backing up your databases using the iThemes Security plugin.
Step 1) Login to the WordPress Dashboard.
Step 2) Backing up your Database will allow you to simply restore you site to how it was before if you are hacked or any other security issues occur. You can backup the full database or pick and choose sections to backup.
Step 3) The File Change Detection section will notify you if any changes have been made to any files on your site. If you haven't made these changes yourself, you will know that a hacking has taken place and be able to make swift changes. You can also hide the login page of your site to throw off any potential hacker who might try to gain entry to your site via the usual /wp-admin page.
Step 4) The Secure Socket Layers (SSL) will protect you against hackers by encrypting any data you post so that it can't be intercepted, and protect your logins and passwords over the web.
Step 5) A really useful feature of the iThemes Security Plugin is the Strong Password feature. It will say Weak, Medium, Good or Strong depending on what password you punch in, and protect you against hackers who take advantage of people who use Password1 and think they're protected…
Step 6) The System Tweaks section is used to further protect your site against hacking attempts. You can disable PHP uploads (disabling hackers who might try to upload malware to your site) and protect yourself against hackers gaining access to any readme.html, readme.txt, wp-config.php, install.php, wp-includes, and .htaccess files.
Step 7) The WordPress Tweaks section of the Settings page is great for ensuring that each section of your site is protected from hackers and spammers. There are a range of tweaks you can make from this page, including removing the meta tag, identifying comments from spambots and eliminating them and forcing folk who try to log in to the site to create a unique nickname, which is great for cutting down on spam and hack attempts. Make sure you read through this section carefully.
The next step of the guide will focus on Reviewing the iThemes Security Logs & Help.

I shot some images of an inanimate object of my choice, my mobile phone.
I started by thinking of a story I could tell through the use of photo's, so I decided to take images of my phone during everyday use, I started with the first moment, which was me opening my phone box, I then took several images of its journey through the rest of the day, i then went through all my images and chose a set of five images to tell a short story, these images I chose I think show the journey of the phone really well.
The following images are the five images I had chosen to tell my story; The first opening shot is of the phone in its box, I chose this one because it shows a beginning, it's almost like the beginning of its life journey, the only thing in this image is the phone, it shows its importance in the photo.
the second image I chose was of the phone in the car, for this image I was torn between using this one and the one of the phone in subway, the subway image shows the phone on the table during a meal, you can see other things in this wide angled image including another phone on the table and the objects in the restaurant behind, although this was a strong image I preferred the one in the car, this was because I had decided to keep the phone out of focus but yet still in the image, my reason for this was to show the surroundings rather than just the phone, I like the way this photo has turned out.
My third image was of the phone being used to call someone, this was used as this is a main purpose of the phone, I liked how in this image the face is not the main objective, the smile and the phone become the main focal point in this image, i think this is a good supporting shot.
My fourth image was of the phone after it had been broken, I chose this as it turns the story from a journey to an event happening along the way, I wanted to use this to make it seem as though there is an end to the set, it sets the scene and gives the story an almost dramatic twist!!
The final shot is of a close up of the phone screen here you can see a text message 'are you okay?' i decided to use this as my final photo as it brings the story back just after a tragedy, it brings the story back to where it was when the phone was intact, I like this image as the text in the image then becomes the main objective, giving it a happy ending so to speak!
After looking through all my images I then decided to choose some more images from my set to create a longer story, i did this because there were a few images i couldn't use in my five that i would of liked to use if I were to create a story without a limited amount of images.
I had a look through my photos again and then took 10 from my images to tell my own version of a longer more detailed story;
Again i used my opening shot as the phone starting its journey from its box. I then again used its journey in the car as my second shot, for the third i decided to use a close up of the phone being used to take an image on, i liked this shot as i had managed to keep the phone in focus and show the image in which the phone was taking whilst keeping all the background out of focus so to not take away the focal point on the phone. After this shot i chose the one in the restaurant, as i wanted to keep this image in the first set i decided i would add this in my own version, from here I wanted to use the image of the phone left on the chair, I think this adds a twist in the middle of the story, where you wonder if the phone will be found of left! I then decided to use an image of the phone being used in the toilet, this shows the phone wasn't left after all and brings the story back on track, I then used the phone call image again for the seventh shot to show the phone back on its journey, to add the drama to the set I used an image of the phone on the floor to show it had been dropped, from here i used the broken phone in the hand to add sorrow to the story, then to finish I used the text message shot again, this gives the story an uplifting feel at the end.

My husband and I drove to Texas for Christmas this year. I wanted to tell you all about the hotel nightmare we had on the drive home, to save you all some stress if you are ever in the area. It was our second day of driving and was for the most part uneventful. The intermittent snow slowed us down a bit and as the snow became steadier and roads more precarious, we pulled into the town of Flagstaff to find a room for the night. We were not the only travelers to do so. The first place we pulled into was full, but the helpful inn keeper had gone through the trouble to call all of the surrounding hotels looking for vacancies. Most of the hotels were full but he directed us to the Knights Inn that had 5 rooms available.
We were not in the position to be picky. The parking lot already had about 10" of snow on it, so the cars, not having lines to tell them where to park, were not parked in a very efficient manner. I was not overly concerned with that. We managed to squeeze in. What I was concerned with were the walk ways and the stairs that were dangerously covered in snow.
A side note, to clarify my concern… I don't own pants. Yes, that's right; I'm one of those ladies who wear dresses exclusively. I did own a cute pair of jeans last year, but they do not fit me this year, and I refuse to buy a larger size. Not that I would have packed them anyway. I live in western Washington at practically sea level and almost never see snow. We were traveling to Texas where it also never snows. Well… it never snows enough to count anyway. I grew up in MN and anything under a foot of snow is just not snow to me. I was unprepared for a romp up a snow covered flight of stairs with 4" heals on.
Disgruntled by the safety hazard and the lack of concern on the part of the inn keeper, I decided to just suck it up, figuring that the walks and stairs would be cleared by check out the next day. The room was grungy; who am I to be picky with a blizzard brewing. I etched the words, "Never Been Cleaned" into the dust on the TV. No coffee pot in the room; who does that in this day and age? The heater was ineffective and only a sheet and comforter on the bed. We had got a nice blanket for Christmas from the sister-in-law, wonderful. Sleep…
Flagstaff was hit hard with 16" of snow by morning. I stayed in the room while the husband went to speak to the inn keeper. He came back in a foul mood. The inn keeper knew nothing about road conditions. Instead of watching the news or taking care of patrons, he was sitting in the office watching daytime TV, and he removed the coffee pot at precisely 11:00; sacrilege! A fellow traveler from MN told my husband that the roads were closed and specifically the interstate due to several rolled over semi-trucks. Another night at this wonderful hotel. Again, I stayed in the room while my husband went to put chains on the car so we could go shopping for hats, gloves, scarves and a pair of boots for me. In case you had not guessed, the walk ways and stairs were covered in snow and ice, still. I watched out the window as the maid struggled to carry a vacuum cleaner over the snow from one room to the next. I assumed she would have just as hard a time pushing a cleaning cart over it. Poor girl; I also watched her have some sort of argument with someone in the parking lot. I couldn't hear the whole conversation but managed to piece together the gist of it. Something about kids to raise and not worth losing a job over.
At noon the inn keeper barged into the room without even knocking first. We had not checked out. He should have known that. He told me that I needed to stop in the office to reserve the room for another night. I told him that was exactly what my husband was doing. He could not do so because no one was in the office. I voiced my concern for the safety of the stairs and walkways. The inn keeper, who spoke little English, said he was helpless and the maintenance man broke his leg. I rolled my eyes and said that if I got hurt on the stairs it would be on his conscience.
On a brighter note; I got the cutest pair of high heeled boots at the mall in Flagstaff that were surprisingly great in the snow. The 5" heal acted as a cleat and helped to keep me from sliding around. More importantly they are so sexy and warm!

Fat What No One Is Telling You
FCS 162 Nutrition, Professor Gordon
Response Paper
In the movies "Fat (What no one is telling you)" and "Fat, Sick, & Nearly Dead" both address the issue of weight, appearance, and health problems associated with being overweight. Both movies provide an interesting view of people living with weight problems. In the movie "Fat (What no one is telling you)" there are different individual cases of their struggle with being overweight. Some have struggled with being overweight since childhood and others have gained weight due to their jobs and busy lifestyle giving them no time to work out. One of the guys from the movie "Fat (What no one is telling you") is overweight because he has no self-control when it comes to food. He has a twin sister and she is not overweight so in his case it doesn't appear to be a genetic issue, but more of his love for food. In one of the scenes he explains how some restaurants in his neighborhood are open 24 hours. This accessibility makes it very difficult for him to lose weight. However, he does not have the will power to work out and wants to find the easy way out by subjecting himself to surgery to help him overcome his weight problems. In the movie "Fat, Sick, & Nearly Dead" John Cross was nearly dying due to a weight related health condition. This near death experience has made him realize he needs to make a change. Therefore, he decides to go on a 60 day life changing experience. Through the 60 day challenge he finds it very challenging, but he goes through it. At the end of the 60 days he lost over 80 pounds and his health has improved significantly. Along his journey through the different dates he came across a guy who surprisingly has the same illness and he offers his help to him. Overall, for many people it is very hard to give up the foods they love and just do not have the will power to change their eating habits and for others near death experiences or to...
