Lots to do today in Marion County
Published: Friday, October 22, 2010 at 10:45 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 22, 2010 at 11:16 p.m.
That time of year is here again! Lots of stuff going on today, too much to list it all here. Big art show in Ocala today and tomorrow, 1890s Festival in McIntosh today, annual OTOW Craft Show today, and lots more stuff to keep you running from morning until night.
You can check elsewhere in the newspaper for a complete rundown, but I'm hoping to at least make the 1890s Festival today. If you go to McIntosh and haven't been there before, you'll surely find one of the prettiest little towns in Florida once you get off 441 and start walking down the side streets. Absolutely gorgeous! Just head north on 441 and drive until you get there!
LITTLE RED WAGON: Ocala's Charlie Porter thinks you might enjoy watching a video about a little red wagon, the likes of which you've probably never seen before. It's really pretty cool. You can find it at: www.ktuu.com/news/ktuu-radio-flyer-car-092910,0,1784245.story
RESTRINGING BLINDS: Ocala's Carol Turnbull wrote: "Emory, your faithful and resourceful readers seem to be able to provide any obscure information that other readers are looking for, so I thought I'd give you a try and maybe someone out there can help. I have a set of mini-blinds in my kitchen that I love that need restringing. Seems like this used to be, in the olden days, a commonly available service, but in this age of throw-it-out-and-get-new, I wonder if anyone still does this. Do you think?"
Gee, Carol, I dunno. Readers?
APRONS: Dunnellon's Harold T. Sansing wrote: "As I remember, my mother and both grandmothers always wore an apron when cooking or doing other work around the house. They both took pride in making their own. My mother's apron was made of substantial material and proved indispensable, especially when we owned and operated a small restaurant in Tennessee years ago. The apron saves a lot of anguish and soapsuds over spotting a nice dress (or blouse) with biscuit and gravy stains. I don't see aprons being worn so much by housewives these days. Are blacksmiths and farriers the only ones left that recognize the utility of the old-fashioned apron?"
SOCKS: Retired Army Col. Bobby Magee wrote: "I have been reading your column since I moved to Dunnellon eight years ago, and I find it very enlightening and informative. Thirty-five years ago, when I had three boys growing up and had a big problem with them going into my sock dresser drawer for a fresh pair of socks, it required positive action.
"My solution was to have my wife stitch white thread in the toe of all my socks so I could randomly remove the boys' shoes to see if they were wearing their father's socks. If caught, they had to wash and wax the car, cut the grass for a month, wash all the windows in the house, etc.
"To make sure I never lost a sock after I removed them, I had a dish of very large safety pins on my dresser to keep them in pairs when I put them in the hamper. I've not lost a sock in 35 years.
"Your first tip in your column about Sammy's caught my eye and I have taken my neighbor there several times. However, I think the best veal dishes in Marion County are found at Carmela's in Dunnellon. Make the trip and try the veal marcella, white wine sauce with mushrooms."
Well, Bobby, thanks for the tip, but wine and I don't get along well together. It always upsets my stomach and sours my taste buds, so I avoid all wines big-time, but I'm sure lots of others will give the veal marcella a try. And thank you for your service to our country — I appreciate it!

Maturity. For a contemporary musician, it can be a dirty word. Does it mean that the musician is reaching new heights or has just gone over the hill?
In the case of Australian blues guitarist Geoff Achison, maturity aptly describes his evolution.
Achison is a guitar player's guitar player. On such recordings as his Live at St. Andrews (2000), he blends the fire of Stevie Ray Vaughan with tasteful extended jazz chords. He's a fine acoustic player, too, and as such is an annual guest instructor at Jorma Kaukonen's Fur Peace Ranch in Ohio.
However, listen to Achison's latest CD, Chasing My Tail, and hear an artist, not just a guitar player, at work. In fact, it's hard to believe that a guitar player is at the helm. The record features tight, horn-drenched band arrangements and laid-back acoustic grooves. There's even a convincing orchestrated (that is, with strings) version of the Allman Brothers' classic "Whippin' Post."
"The focus, really, was on the songs and the arrangements rather than just making the songs a life-support system for guitar solos, which they can tend to be sometimes," Achison says.
The new CD benefited, ironically, from Achison's hectic touring schedule, which keeps him busy in three different countries (the States, Britain and Down Under). In the midst of it all, last year he squeezed in the sessions for Chasing My Tail, cobbling together disparate ideas and performance settings into a diverse, appealing recording.
"This is a collection of songs that had been floating around with different projects of mine," Achison says. "These songs were written in hotel rooms and thrown together with a band on the odd occasion that we had a rehearsal. Hopefully, it works in its favor, but it wasn't an album that was written from start to finish [in one period of time]."
His well-considered recording notwithstanding, Achison clearly has not hung up his guitar-slingin' rock 'n' roll jam shoes.
"Our live gigs tend to take off in all sorts of different directions," Achison explains. "When we do gigs, I've never subscribed to the idea of trying to do reproductions of our CDs. In fact, the recording process is just us trying to make a condensed version of what we do live."
Because it's not always feasible to tour with a horn or string section, Achison typically has a different band in each continent. He met his current Atlanta-based band on the night of their first gig together. "We shook hands and introduced ourselves while we were setting up to play," he says. This sort of performance situation leads to less complex live arrangements, Achison notes, and more space for jamming.
"I tell [audiences] right off the bat, 'I'm not sure how the songs are going to sound tonight. We're just going to count them in and see where they go,'" Achison says. "It makes the songs kind of a journey in themselves. It's more fun that way, and I think the audience enjoys it as well. Sometimes they can see that we've just about created a train wreck, but we save it in the nick of time. It's like a roller coaster ride."
Achison's musical maturity -- fueled in part by marriage and a 15-month-old son -- makes the jam aesthetic an increasingly comfortable one for him. "Even though I like to jam, I think some of my testosterone has dissolved," he says with a laugh. "I take my time more at gigs. I don't feel the need to play big solos all the time. I don't feel I've got as much to prove, and I'm glad about that."

|COP21 - Paris
The president of Peru Ollanta Humala held a telephone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel; French President Francois Hollande; and the Secretary General of the United Nations, Ban Ki-moon, in the preliminaries of the World Conference on Climate Change (cop21) to be held in Paris in late 2015.
The discussion included several aspects:
Must reached a new global agreement on the issue of binding, it becomes an instrument with long-term effect.
He can achieve an inclusive society faced with climate change and low carbon growth.
It is necessary to send a clear message that responds to the need to address this issue today.
They -Remarcaron advances in finance, and one of the highlights was the performance of the formation of so-called Green Fund, to fund actions related to climate change.
-Acordaron will continue work to route the same vision for the Paris agreement, through mitigation, adaptation, finance and technology support.
On the other hand, and on the issue, in Paris, the French president during a speech to French diplomats speech, revealed that an agreement at the international climate conference, scheduled for December in Paris, will not be possible if countries Industrialized not pay 100 billion dollars annually earmarked for financing the energy transition of developing countries.
"If we want Paris to be successful, political compromises will be necessary, but also funding will be needed," he said. "A hundred billion dollars for 2020 was already the promise was not fulfilled. Is now a must: 100,000 million without the agreement will not be in Paris, "stressed François Hollande.

Uncover a wealth of information you can use to make your site a lean, mean persuasion machine.
Measuring site performance is vital. Yet many of us have trouble understanding exactly what should be measured. Obviously, an essential key performance indicator (KPI) for all sites is conversion rate. In addition to overall conversion rate, there are two others. Let's explore all three:
Overall Conversion Rate
Overall conversion rate accounts for people having numerous goals when visiting a Web site. Probably you do, too. It provides a more accurate picture of how effectively a Web site serves people and accomplishes your goals on a per-visit basis.
Generally, it should be used only to evaluate broad, sweeping changes. Use it to evaluate the results of a site redesign, a specific marketing campaign, or new site-search technology.
Scenario Conversion Rate
Most efforts require more finite measures for evaluation and improvement. Everything you do ultimately affects scenario conversion rates. Actions are tied to goals, the success of which are measured using scenario conversion rates.
If this metric increases or decreases, you need further analysis to determine why. With this metric, you'll see which marketing campaigns, affiliate relationships, or PPC (define) search engine keywords positively affected your scenario conversion rates. Everything on your site: new content, navigation, promotions, calls to action, and merchandising, can be measured to determine if it contributes or detracts from the scenario conversion rate.
Conversion Over Time
Conversion is a process, not an isolated event. A purchase decision is the culmination of that process. It may take place almost instantaneously or stretch out over a long time. For this reason, it's important to consider not all visitors are prepared or even inclined to convert on their first site visit. Sometimes, conversion is the result of multiple visits. This is why measuring conversion rates as buying sessions over total sessions isn't the best way to calculate conversion rates.
A new marketing campaign, for example, attracts a lot of visitors to the first few steps of your scenario. Perhaps it takes an average of five visits before conversion. Evaluate initial conversion rates from this scenario accordingly. Until you achieve a five-visit frequency, don't gauge a low conversion rate too harshly or assume it's not working.
In the early phase, focus on getting visitors to the scenario and keeping them engaged. This may entail marketing tactics designed to encourage repeat visits and shortening the average number of visits required for conversion.
To understand conversion over time for your site, these visitor history measures are useful:
You can also examine visitor frequency, recency, and latency by purchase count and lifetime value to understand the effect more recent or frequent visits or shorter time between visits have on conversion. Also consider whether visitors who convert once return to convert again.
Calculating overall conversion rate is admirable and necessary, but it's not the only indicator of a site's ability to persuade. Dig a little deeper, and calculate all three conversion rates. You'll likely uncover a wealth of information you can use to continually optimize and keep your site a lean, mean persuasion machine.

Do you dream in black and white or color? If the dreams in question are, in fact, Bombay Dreams, the answer isn't just color but color, sequins and everything Bollywood (India's version of Hollywood).

And like those musicals, this story of love, ambition and cultural heritage, combined with its over-the-top costumes and choreography, is bound to be a classic. Sachin Bhatt, Sandra Allen and Reshma Shetty star. Baayork Lee directs. Bombay Dreams runs 8 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, with matinees at 2 p.m. Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, this Tuesday through June 18 at the Music Hall at Fair Park. Tickets are $11 to $69.

Release Date: 1986 |
Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound OffFirst review on the site, this was a 30 minute in the office write so break me in gentle.
Every time that I think of a clever band name it ends up existing already
Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound OffAh yeah and obviously this is my favourite album of all time hence choosing it as a first review
Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound OffMrSLG this band name reads witty on paper but it sure is shitty to pronounce when introducing people to the band
finally a review
where's zak so this achievement can be properly celebrated
Digging: Majical Cloudz - Are You Alone?
Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound OffThanks Arcade, typical of Zak to disappear in my time of need.
Sorry dudes been traipsing around the Lake District knee deep in sheep shit.
Review is great, bands a funny one for me though, doesn't grab me at all.
Digging: Wand - Golem
Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound OffZak I've not been to the Lake District, been to the Peak District plenty of times, both areas rich in sheep shit.
Don't worry about not digging The The, they're a strange one, lots of people find Johnson too preachy. Music-wise all the albums are pretty different, you might prefer the 90's album'Dusk' with Marr on guitar. This album is full on 80's
Album Rating: 4.5Love this album, esp for out of the blue into the fire and title track. I don't even really like all the songs, but I used to listen to it all the time when I discovered it in mid nineties. So strange. hypnotic. I salute you picking this album--I think it's the the The album least adulterated by any other influence (youth, early career jitters--Soul mining......late career anxieties--Dusk......how to repackage the spirit of infected--Mind Bomb). They're all good though, esp dusk (this is the night, bluer than midnight). dats my take. nice review
Album Rating: 4.5of all bands i have strong feelings about, this is probably the one with the highest percentage of songs I could take or leave...... but its the strength of the few great songs and the deep strangeness of the total package, I do believe
Album Rating: 4.5and the cover art

The House of Representatives passed the 2001 Interior and Related Agencies bill early in the morning of June 16. The vote on final passage was 204 to 172. The bill provides $7.4 billion for Department programs $1,030 million below the President's request.
During consideration of the bill, funding for Interior programs was increased by $112.5 million above the level provided by the Appropriations Committee. In additon $2 million more was appropriated to the Forest Service to be transferred to the National Park Service for acquisition of Cat Island, Mississippi.
The House voted to nullify a limitation provision limiting funding for management of newly designated national monuments.
The House also voted to nullify a limitation on completion of the Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Management Plan. However, it later voted to reinstate the limitation.
Other highlights of House action include the following:
The rule under which the bill was considered protected all provisions of the bill from points of order, with the exception of a provision requiring that the Secretary of the Interior concur in decisions of the Corp of Engineers concerning water for the Everglades ecosystem. During consideration of the bill, Mr. Hansen of Utah raised a point of order against the Everglades provision as legislation in an appropriations bill. The point of order was sustained. The House later adopted a Hinchey amendment eliminating funding for the Everglades Modified Water Delivery Project.
Details of action of Interior Department-related amendments follow:

Secret Heart box
by EricYoung, published
Thing Info
Uploaded a second version (all STL's are in the zip file at the bottom). It has thinner walls around the pivot and can only use 6mm Diameter x 3mm Thick cylindrical magnets to stay in position. Otherwise it's basically the same as the first version
While watching The Illusionist for the first time I was really taken by the scene where Ed Norton's character creates and gives the locket to his sweetheart. I quickly decided to design such a locket, but after seeing a variety of nice designs floating around on the web I pretty much gave up on it until having this idea to create a box based on the same concept - one that can change shapes and only opens when in the heart shaped position. I've been calling it the Secret Heart after listening to Feist's cover song.
I tried to keep all the components printable or easily accessible at average local stores, but there are a couple random components in this version - either 2 small magnets or a spring from a clicker Bic pen along with a BB (or any small sphere about .17" in diameter). The magnets are really the best to use because they keep the box in the heart shape and keep the lid halves together when opened, but the spring and BB seem to work decently if you can't find magnets of the right size. If you do use the magnets then the spring and BB only act to keep the box in the rectangular shape, which isn't a big deal since friction seems to do a good job of it. I've uploaded a few different variations of the lid for this design, each with a different hole size for different magnet sizes, so hopefully most people can find a usable magnet. If anyone has a request for a different magnet hole size let me know as it's pretty easy to change the model and make new STL's.
Assembly instructions and BOM are included in the PDF drawing attached.
Print one each of all the included parts, 2 of the Hinge Covers. All my parts were printed in PLA with .15mm layer height. The Lids, Bases and Hinge Block were printed with 50% hex infill and the Pivot pieces with 100% infill. The default coordinate systems make all parts printable within a 100mm square build area and I used a skirt of 2 passes at zero offset for the lids and base. You may want to use a wider skirt with zero offset (called 'The Brim' as named by Idolcrasher, who discovered how much it helps reduce warpage) if you have a larger build area.
I used Kisslicer for all the parts except the bases, which I used Slic3r for because for some reason (that I couldn't figure out) Kisslicer was generating some strange paths that were causing problems for those parts. All the STL's have been run through Netfabb already fyi.
Without a heated bed you'll get some warping at the pointed tips and rounded ends of the base and lid pieces, but for me it ended up being pretty uniform across all those parts and so it's not really an issue in terms of the pieces looking off with respect to each other.
If the hinge covers crack a bit when installing the set screws they will still probably work fine - almost all the hinge covers I'm using have cracked at least a little bit and I don't really want to beef up the wall section around the set screws because it means larger cutouts in the back of the part. If the hinge covers completely break from the set screws you might want to use a size 7/64" or 1/8" drill bit to clear out the holes, but doing this means the hinge won't have (as much) friction and won't feel as nice.
The thin walls at the rear of the base pieces might be pretty fragile until you install the hinge covers, so be careful not to put too much force on them until the assembly is complete.
Cleaning up the edges of the lids and bases is pretty important for allowing the two halves to rotate nicely and without catching an edge, so be sure to sand or file the edges on those parts. You'll also probably need to clean up the edges at the bottom of the hinge covers a bit so that they fit into the base without applying much force. After having some issues with the rotation on some builds it's clear that the pivot hole should be nice and clean too.
I used JB Quick Weld epoxy to pot/adhere the magnets in my parts and it works really well, but it does stain the PLA pretty easily so be careful not to get it on visible surfaces if you use it.

I really like the design for this. Im going to print this on my UltiMaker2 as soon as i am home from work.
I have 1 question tho. Where did you order the magnets? And do they have to be in there??
I've been looking for this locket since I watched the movie 5 years ago.
Loved your design. Now I just need to buy/make a 3D printer. I'm on my way...
Thanks :)
You can buy the locket online if you want, they cost around $200. Google "illusionist locket" and it'll be the first link. There were also one or two less expensive versions on Ebay last I checked.
Great documentation!
Thanks, I felt like it might have been too much info so glad if it helped you.
Hi Eric, I printed from the zip the two base parts and both came as female in the middle, totally different from the pdf and pictures. Am I missing somthing other than the Pivot Main and Pivot Nut Cap to join the base parts? Here are pics: http://imgur.com/a/1qlDUhttp://imgur.com/a/1qlDU
Hi Soke, it looks good to me. Those female grooves are for the lid catches (to keep lids closed until unlocked), so they are supposed to look like that.
One thing I forgot to mention about that thin walled version is that you need either a #4-40 x 3/8" long or M3 x 9mm long flat head machine screw for the pivot rather than the one called out in the drawing, since the walls got thinner. Good luck!
Eric this piece is wonderful! It was really a challenge for my printrbot+. A lot of cleaning up had to be done for the hinges to work properly and for the lids to align with the rest of the design, mine isn't nearly as flush and good looking as yours but I am very happy I was able to put it together, Thanks for the great design and amazing documentation. http://imgur.com/a/cf50Rhttp://imgur.com/a/cf50R
Thanks Soke, it's really gratifying to see people post their prints. Glad it worked out in the end.
Printing as I type.
Last piece....Just waiting on magnets!
Thanks for this great piece!
You do magnificent work, Eric!
Love your layout too!
Love this part :) If you fancy winning a $2,500 printer of your choice or material visit http://www.big-3dp-survey.comwww.big-3dp-survey.com
Hi, Im trying to source the hardware to make one but im not sure what you mean by #4-40 set screw, hex nut then #4-40 x .50" for the socket flat head cap screw.
Do you mean M4? What are the required lengts of the screw and set screw?
Yeah the #4 screws are in Imperial Units as I'm in the USA. You can use M3's in place of #4, they're basically the same dimensions.
For the set screws I think anywhere between 6 and 10mm length should work. The pivto screw should be a 12mm long machine screw and hex nut. The wood screws should also be about 12mm long, though 10mm should work too.
Very nice job and thanks for sharing. I'll have a go at a print tomorrow.
So awesome. Just ordered the missing pieces and will start the print tomorrow for V-Day this year
Sweet! Let me know if you run into any issues or have any suggestions for changes etc.
So far no issues with the print. I recommend a no offset brim as you did to avoid curling at edges of lids. Biggest problem is the darn line that appears on the lids from the infintessimal bump the join in my painters tape makes. Why don't they make that stuff in 10 inch strips :)
If you are printing with PLA and a heated bed, just turn on bed to 60C and PLA at 200-205 then print directly on the glass. Just give it a wipe before printing to clean off any oil or dust. Then once your print is finished, let the bed cool down, and the part will literally pop right off no spatula needed and the base of print , well you guessed it SMOOTH as glass(: Once you do this you will begin to love your machine because guess what, NO MORE TAPE:D You will be smiling watching the first print, and you will giggle with excitement when the bed cools and not before, have to wait then it will pop right off. be careful with small parts, once they break free just slide it off the edge because they are stuck by vacuum force. Hope this helps and changes your whole printing experience, because I know it did mine(:
Good to hear and thank you for your input.
One issue I've run into since posting this design is that the rotation of the two halves for some builds is really 'catchy' for lack of a better term. This causes the pivot screw to loosen eventually, which sucks. I haven't had the time to figure out the definite cause, but think it's probably that either the Pivot pieces are too bumpy or the holes in the Bases are too bumpy. So those areas might need some extra attention fyi
Don't even get me started on those friggin tape lines :) It shouldn't be hard for 3M to slit their painters tape to various widths during the conversion process. Maybe if enough people are using the tape someone could organize a crowd-funded custom order on the Reprap forums. Hmmm.
Re: the war on lines across prints. I am having very good luck with green Frog Tape. 1 layer of painters + a layer of that. You can get very very crisp joins with it and it reduces the line factor a LOT. Additionally it doesnt flake off like painters tape and leave a blue residue.
I just received my Makerbot 2 and it came with 3 strips of painters tape that are about 12" by 7", so it definitely exists. Wish I could help more by giving you a brand name but unfortunately there isn't one.
As for your design, I am really looking forward to trying it out after I hunt down some magnets for the appropriate size. In the meantime, I'm 10% in to printing your iPhone dock - it looks great so far!
Cool, thanks for the info and good luck with the prints :)
Very nice, thank you very much for your hard work.
Thank you, that's really nice to hear as this one took a whole lot longer than I'd hoped to figure out a mechanism that both worked well and was 3D-printable. I'm still getting used to taking advantage of the capabilities of 3D printers to make certain features and ended up going through over 1kg of filament on prototypes. Gave one of the prototypes to my cousin for Christmas though and just seeing her reaction made it all worth it.
Excellent! My 2012 V-Day printed present for my wife was the Heart Gear. I was still new to my ToM and didn't get it finished in time. This will be my 2013 V-day printed present, with plenty of time (and lots more experience) to get it done right!
Great! I hope she likes it :)
I'm interested to know how easy this is for others to print and assemble, so if you run into any problems or have any suggestions for improvements let me know.

went during memorial day weekend and as I anticipated the parking lot was packed due to the holiday. We hiked the orange trail to the blue trail back down the silver trail. Was a beautiful and somewhat challenging hike as we weren't in the best shape following the winter. Saw two timber rattlesnakes, a black rat snake, a red bellied skink, along with other more common critters. Don't worry about the snakes if you fear them just watch your step and give them the distance they deserve.

I hiked the Halifax to the White trail in about 2.5 hours without stopping more than 5 mins and going at a pretty leisurely pace for most of it. I actually started going around Scarlet Oak Pond and making a right over the wood bridge following the green on white markers. Nice view from Hawk Rock I think it was. The first hour felt like two with all the inclines.
Passed the blue on white markers to get to the White trail on the left. Didn't care for the narrow part of the trail but it opens up again quickly. Led to the blue trail and passed the Overlook on my way down. If I weren't so tired I would have stopped for the view but I just wanted to get back to the car. Didn't realize I was so out of shape. Overall good hike but I think it would be prettier in spring or fall.

Overall I found this park & trail a good solution for a simple and fairly quick afternoon getaway from NYC.
It's less than an hour from midtown, I found parking pretty easy (it was 2:00 on a Summer Sunday) and the trail is right off the road. I hiked the yellow trail, not the paved one, it pretty much hikes like a dry river bed and is nicely covered with trees. I also found it relatively quiet, not to many people around. Hike to the lake and around, let your dog go for a swim and leash him back up!

good for an umplanned hike with the kids or the dog. extremely crowded, so don't expect solitude.
Jesus Gay (306)

Great trail with a lot of good views. rail is well marked. Despite Ramapo Reservation being very popular and at times very crowded, the trail is very quiet and you don't run into many people like on the other trails.

Strange in the City
Northeast Florida stays quirky in more ways than one.
In a town with multiple airports and military bases, it's not unusual to see an aircraft with flashing lights in the sky. However, not all flying objects can be identified, which is why local yokels post their UFO sightings on websites like ufoinfo.com and ufomaps.com. More than 100 believers have shared visions of boomerang-shaped entities and silver spheres with strobe lights, and green fireballs making "zed-zid zed-zid" sounds. Na-nu na-nu, indeed.

Welcome to Rocket Hat Industries, the home of creative works from Scott and Missy Meyer.
Scott's News (July 2015):
Master of Formalities: A new novel in a new universe! Coming July 7, 2015.
Even when finding oneself engaged in interstellar war, good form must be observed. Our story is set thousands of years after the Terran Exodus, where two powerful, planet-dominating families—the elegant House Jakabitus and the less refined Hahn Empire—have reached a critical point in their generations-long war. Master Hennik, the Hahn ruler's only son, has been captured, and the disposition of his internment may represent a last and welcome chance for peace.
Enter Wollard, the impeccably distinguished and impossibly correct Master of Formalities for House Jakabitus. When he suggests that Master Hennik be taken in as a ward of the House, certain complications arise. Wollard believes utterly and devotedly in adhering to rules and good etiquette. But how does one inform the ruler of a planet that you are claiming his son as your own—and still create enough goodwill to deescalate an intergalactic war?
Preorder Master of Formalities now on Kindle / Paper / Audiobook!

Missy's News (November 2014):
We Could Be Villains: Scott isn't the only one writing novels in this house anymore. This month, Missy published We Could Be Villains, an action/adventure book with superheroes, a heist, and a splash of chick lit:
Sarah Valentine is so over seeing drama about her city's superheroes on every newspaper and TV broadcast. Besides, she has her own problems to worry about: her career isn't going anywhere, she doesn't have a boyfriend (or any prospects), and most of her weekends are spent escaping into video games that are way more thrilling than anything that will ever happen to her. And worst of all, her thirtieth birthday is right around the corner.
But everything changes the day she runs into Nate—a chance encounter with a handsome stranger that turns her quiet life upside down and throws her into the middle of a world of heroes, villains, and adventure.
In We Could Be Villains, Sarah learns that there's a very hazy line between the good guys and the bad guys. With the help of an unexpected journey, a motley team of professionals, and some eye-opening backstory about the heroes she's grown up watching, Sarah just might find the job, romance, and excitement she's been waiting for.
We Could Be Villains is now available!

With the introduction of two new reversed-phase column types, TSKgel ODS-100V and TSKgel ODS-100Z, excellent chromatographic performance and selectivity can be achieved for a wide range of sample types. TSKgel ODS-100Z and TSKgel ODS-100V are based on a spherical, five micron, silica gel with 100 angstrom pores; each material is derivatized with difunctional octadecylmethylsilane, followed by an exhaustive endcapping reaction.TSKgel ODS-100Z contains approximately 20% carbon, while TSKgel ODS-100V has a lower ligand density resulting in about 15% carbon, which in turn leads to stronger retention of polar compounds.
The analysis of water- and lipid-soluble vitamins requires both hydrophilic and hydrophobic retention capabilities of the stationary phase. Also, the composition of the stationary phase must allow for stable retention times in the absence of organic solvents in the mobile phase. As demonstrated, simple and fast analysis methods for the determination water and lipid soluble vitamins are possible on the TSKgel ODS-100V and the TSKgel ODS-100Z columns.
Analysis of Water Soluble Vitamins
A mixture of six water soluble vitamins was analyzed on TSKgel ODS- 100V and TSKgel ODS-100Z under isocratic conditions with 99% water- 1% acetonitrile, acidified with 0.1% TFA to a pH of 2.0. At an optimized temperature of 40C good separation was obtained for all compounds in less than 10 minutes (see Figure 1 ).
Both columns managed to separate all vitamins by baseline. Thiamine,
pyridoxal and pyridoxine were better separated on the more polar TSKgel

We have regular company meetings at this hotel. It is a very comfortable, clean hotel with friendly staff. The adjacent shopping center is great for its variety of terrific restaurants and good selection of stores.
Review collected in partnership with Hilton Hotels & Resorts
My husband and I spent three days at this Hilton when we visited Columbus for a wedding. The public areas are lovely and the large lobby fireplace was particularly welcoming since the weather was bitterly cold and snowy. This hotel provides a free airport shuttle. You do need to call the hotel to have them pick you up. Every staff member that we encountered, beginning with the shuttle driver, as well as the front desk staff and restaurant personnel were very friendly and courteous. The staff was diligent about keeping the snow and ice clear from the front walks. Our room had a very comfortable bed and nice linens. Everything, including the bathroom, was very clean. The furnishings showed slight wear but were by no means shabby. We ate breakfast each morning in the restaurant and it was really nice. The buffet was about $16.00 per person and had a great variety including made to order omlettes. The location of this property is great. There is a wonderful variety of restaurants and shops and a movie theatre all within a couple of minutes walk. Overall it was a good experience. I did not notice the problem about noise from other rooms mentioned by another review and it seemed to be a pretty busy weekend.
I recently stayed here for a conference and look forward to going back. The outside of the hotel is beautiful and there is onsite parking. For a city hotel that alone is impressive. The lobby was beautiful and all of the staff were excellent. I checked in late at night and both the desk person an d the night manager were very helpful. Other staff members continually said hello and good morning. The room was clean and pretty much standard. The shower was hot with good pressure. The black out shades were excellent and noise from the hallway was minimal and I was right by the elevators. The conference facilities were also excellent. I am considering a weekend trip to Columbus and this is at the top of my list. I did not eat in the hotel so I cannot review their food.
We stayed here for the convenience of easton. It was wonderful you can just walk right out of the hotel and everything is there. We love the movie theater at easton and dinner at the melting pot. This is such a fun place for family time or for couples. The pool at the hotel is also very nice. There is so much to do you can easily spend a weekend here! We will be back!
I stayed here for business. While it was ok, I was not blown away, and from the outside, it looked simply beautiful.Good:- convenient to Easton Town Center, with lots of shops and restaurants.- free parking- beautiful lobby; friendly staff at check-in and check-outNot so good:- Furniture in the rooms was old (chipping; broken sofa)- Asked for no feather pillows, but they were there upon check-in. I called for foam pillows, and they said they would send some. They never came. - There was barely any hot water in the shower, and the water came out so forcefully, it almost knocked me over! - Walls are paper thin. I could hear the tv next door, as well as people talking. We did have lunch catered during our business meeting, and it was actually very good. Service was again very good here.Would I stay here again? Maybe.
beautiful hotel... great shopping across the street hotel staff was very helpful... many spaces for parking .. very nice sports bar.. I was able to watch the Chicago Blackhawks winter game at Solider Field on one of the tv screens .... great place..
I was at this hotel on business. It is a very nice hotel and the staff was exceptionally welcoming. My only complaint was the speed of their internet in the room (extremely slow) and the availability of wi-fi in the meeting rooms (depended on where you sat). This made it difficult to get work done. However, if I were at the hotel for pleasure, it would be fine.

It's important to carry out keyword research to get an understanding of the keywords that your audience is using. There are a number of keyword research tools available online to help you choose which keywords to target.
Indexed Pages
This is the number of pages on your website that are indexed by search engines. It's important to aim to have all of your web pages crawled and indexed by the search engines, as this gives you more opportunity for your website to be found.
A low number (relative to the total number of pages/URLs on your website) indicates that there is an issue, whether it's due to a bad internal linking structure, or you're unknowingly preventing search engines from crawling your pages.
Make sure your website's XML sitemap is present and you have submitted it to the major search engines. Building backlinks to your website's internal pages will also help bots to discover, crawl and index them, while building authority to help them rank in the search engines.
Check Google™ Webmaster Tools under 'Google Index' and 'Crawl' to keep track of the status of your site's indexed/crawled pages.
Google+ Publisher
Your website is missing a rel="Publisher" tag for linking to your Google+ Page.

Nice Box! I had to shorten one of the support braces ( no big deal!). The box is not intended for the Tacoma, but it looks pretty good.
Reviewed By Vinson M (Hampton, VA) Reviewed for a 2004 Toyota Tacoma —10/24/2013 2:57 PM
A great fit. Construction overall very good. Wish there was an option to make it deeper. Only drawback is poor quality of shipping materials. Throwing a few cardboard "corners" in without securing or any padding wrap just fails to protect box: First shipment arrive destroyed on both ends of gullwings, second try had small ding to end of one gullwing (not worth raising an issue). So INSPECT thoroughly upon receipt, and customer service is GREAT, if any issue. Would buy from again.

Working at InBev provides many valuable lessons in how NOT to run a business.
A shoddy, third-rate operation on every level. The U.S. plants have become disgusting and dangerous places to work under InBev, as safety and sanitation are not part of the cost-cutting culture. Senior management holds its employees in contempt, yet wonders why no one is "engaged." The reasons for the mass exodus taking place now as the economy improves seems to be truly lost on them, despite nickel and diming employees since the takeover (the ones who haven't been fired, that is), right down to passing along the $50 a year fee to manage your 401K account. Lights are kept turned off in all office areas, and in many parts of the plants as a rule. The culture of "Meritocracy" is a farce. Bonus payouts are not based on extraordinary performance, they are based on narrowly defined targets, set at the beginning of the year, and don't seem to be much more than a mirage to keep employees chasing after pay that the old A-B would have already distributed in merit increases over the past 2 years.
Advice to Management
As a stockholder in several competing companies, let me just say: please don't change a thing.

A known company. Everyone knows your products. 2 cases a month...while it lasts....
All they care about is cost. 120 payment terms to suppliers? No one wants to work with you due to that. Open office enviroment causes a lot of negativity. The only way to make more money is to become a manager. Makes people not want to talk to eachother, or work with eachother. A lot of backstabing involved. No one cares about technicals, only powerpoints. Everyone is managing upwards. Managers do not care about employees under them. Everything is about cost... and they sacerfice quality.
Advice to Management
Brito needs to understand the total cost is important. Not just procured costs.

I have a virtual private server that only allows me to use 128MB of RAM. I recently installed APC for PHP and it consumes more than 128MB. My provider wants me to upgrade my account if I don't get that number down. Is there a config option that I can use to set a maximum on APC?
You can use the apc.shm_size config option. APC Configuration
It seems you need to make changes to
The goal of APC is to save CPU by spending more ram. You have to allow enough ram so the pages you want to cache will stay cached for next request. 128M is low, a single Wordpress require 20M
To lower the ram required you can :
Fine tunning APC is about giving him enough ram so it never have to flush cache.
Frank Farmer advice is good. Use apc.php.
It's funny to see everybody answering how to increase memory where you want to actually lower it. And they get point for that ! :)

Originally posted on Fox Sports Tennessee | Last updated 11/7/12
NEW YORK -- The NHL and its players' union kept talking Wednesday, a day after they met for more than seven hours in an effort to end the nearly two-month-old hockey lockout. The sides negotiated on a new collective bargaining agreement past 10 p.m. Tuesday and immediately announced they would reconvene. They started up again at an undisclosed location, and were fully prepared to talk well into the night. As the lockout reached its 53rd day, it was expected that owners and players would further discuss the "make-whole" provision, which involves the payment of player contracts that are already in effect. A day after NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr spoke to reporters before meeting with the NHL, neither side made any pre-meeting comments. Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, an active participant in the process, was among eight players in attendance for the latest session. Some players, including Crosby, left New York to try to avoid an impending storm that brou...

HGT should be over $30 soon. It was over $30 in Feb. '05 with oil and gas at lower numbers. All we need is the pipeline completed.
$30 sounds good, 40 would be even better. Any idea when pipeline will be completed?What will happen to the price after the cash distribution? will it drop by the amount of cash distrubuted? thanks
Oil at $120 by MayIf oil and nat gas keep moving higher, then HGT will not drop after distribution, but continue on up. In theory, The trade the day after it goes x-distribution will drop the price by the amount of the distribution, all else remaining the same.

Does it equal more minutes?
LeKendric Longmire promises his fluid intake is up, so his minutes should be, too, when the Ducks play at UC Irvine on Friday night.
Speaking of minutes, Teondre Williams and Ben Voogd haven't logged any yet this season. Will they against the Anteaters?
In a nutshell, that's the Friday advance story that will appear in the print edition of The Register-Guard, and online as the day wears on.
Longmire has had cramping issues in the first two games, so he's had a water bottle holder installed in his practice shorts. Kidding there, but he's drinking before, during and after practice.
"I've been working really hard to get it taken care of," Longmire said of hydration issues that led to the cramping.
Williams is apparently over his sprained toe and bruised thigh, though then he went down with a knee injury in Wednesday's practice. He came back, and seemed OK. UO coach Ernie Kent said he'd like to get the freshman some minutes.
Then there's Voogd, the junior transfer. He's the No. 4 point guard, Kent explained to me, so there hasn't been much playing time. And the minutes as the second guard aren't there either.
Figure it this way: there are 80 minutes for the two guard positions. Tajuan Porter will probably get about 30 of those, or more. That leaves 50, or less, for Voogd, Kamyron Brown, Garrett Sim, Matt Humphrey and Williams, plus Longmire, when he isn't the other wing, or small forward.
In discussing the minutes, Kent said that freshman Drew Wiley is the player he feels should have had more minutes, particularly against Oakland when Oregon's outside shooting was 22 percent in the second half. Wiley, at 6-7, could have shot over defenders, and he's been accurate in practice.
If not Friday, there should be minutes available for Voogd, Williams and every other Duck next week when Oregon is in the Maui Invitational. The schedule there will have the Ducks playing three games in less than 48 hours, starting with Alabama on Monday (at 9 p.m. in the Pacific time zone).
Bob Clark is a veteran sports reporter who has covered local and national events for more than 30 years.

In May, Team Russia drew the ire of the IIHF for walking off the ice before Canada's anthem was played after the World Hockey Championship final.
IIHF president Rene Fasel said Monday that Team Russia would be punished for leaving the ice before Canada's anthem was played at the end of the World Hockey Championship game on Sunday in Prague.
Alex Ovechkin's bid for a fourth gold medal in the 2015 IIHF World Championships was upended by Sidney Crosby and the Canadians on Sunday as Russia fell to Canada 6-1 in the gold medal game.
The number of Capitals playing professionally in other leagues reached five over the weekend when forward Wojtek Wolski signed to play with Ciarko PBS Bank KH Sanok of the Polish League.
