It is pointed out that techniques adapted from artificial intelligence have already started to become commercially available. Researchers see software becoming more `trainable', able to access quantities of data that are orders of magnitude greater than today's and able to `intuit' some of the user's needs. The software will perform some of these tasks automatically while it monitors other functions of the PC in the background. These strides in functionality will be made by multitasking operating systems. Multitasking may be used mostly for background tasks-monitoring a modem, for instance-and for the `desk accessory' functions now performed by RAM-resident programs. It is predicted that software in the future will allow users to define how to use a program's functions. For example, a program might construct a profile of an individual user and `remember' command sequences frequently used by that user. The software could then `guess' what the user might request next and offer that option as a prompt.

Green Bay Packers: They Will NOT Win The NFC North
This article points out key factors as to why GB would not win. However, IMO they will compete, for 3rd place. This is not because I am a Vikings fan. My opinion is based off of observations I've made after watching both games for CHI, GB, and MIN. Initially, I was going to credit CHI's defensive line when they wreaked havoc on Aaron Rodgers week 1. However, after watching Antwan "I had three total sacks last year" Odom sack Rodgers five times on Sunday, three of which coming in the 4th QT, the blame goes solely on mismanagement on TT's part and horrendous coaching of technique on the Packers' coaching staff. In the post game press conference, McCarthy even stated that GB gameplanned to add heavier protection packages for Rodgers all afternoon. They didnt help obviously. So therefore, it must come down to terrible technique and/or lack of overall talent. Ever since TT took over the GM position, GB's OL has always been in a state of flux. I dont want to hear that Odom played well because Clifton went down either. Throughout the game, Odom was abusing him as well. The entire Packers' OL is just pathetic as a whole. Can you imagine what MIN's DL are going to do to that offensive line? Expect a lot of the same things you seen last year when GB traveled to the Metrodome to occur on OCT 5th. Rodgers is going to be running for his life. And I hope the Packers aren't looking past STL. Afterall, they "should've " beat Cincinnati to a pulp. Especially at Lambeau. Second Point: Cedric Benson carved up GB's rush DEF for 141 yards on 25+ carries. Thats sad. Seriously. What are they going to do for Adrian Peterson? Its just not going to be pretty. And this based off of pure personnel standpoint. Can someone call Greg Jennings and ask him where he is? Also, Ryan Grant was given a $40 million dollar contract to do what exactly? 3 total carries in the second half is a joke. Third and Final Point: Green Bay has got to be one of the most undisciplined teams in the NFL today. They were penalized up and down the field on Sunday. Luckily for them, CIN was just as bad discipline wise. (Sep 21, 2009 | post #22)
Vikings 2009: Will head of the Pack lead Vikings back?
I can't believe the media's love for stories with absolute no substance. These "analysts " are not stupid. They know exactly what Favre brings, and exactly what the Vikkings need him to do. The Beast or as I like to call him, The Meast: Half Man, Half Beast, Adrian Peterson is the Vikings OFF. Everything plays off of Peterson. Playaction, screens, etc. If Favre can make those 5-10 dink n dunk passes, MIN will win 12 games this season. If you remember 2007, when Favre and the Packers went 13-3, thats exactly what Mike McCarthy had Favre doing. Hitting those 5-10 yard passes, and letting the talent of the recievers get a;; the YAC. One Big difference between that Packers team and this Vikings team.....The Best TailBack in the game today. (Sep 11, 2009 | post #1)
Steelers beat the Titans, 13-10
Props to TEN. What a game by that team. No loss is a good loss, but they can hold their heads high. Against a lesser team, TEN routs. That DEF looks studly AGAIN, and Chris Johnson is a stud. (Sep 10, 2009 | post #1)
Reed's FG Pushes Steelers Past Titans In OT
The game turned out to be a tale of two halves. In the first half, TEN embarassed PIT botH on OFF and DEF. If Bironas was worth anything, TEN could've had the game signed, sealed, and delivered by the 4th qt. But of course, that didnt happen. Pittsburgh told me one thing tonight. "Running the ball may not be the Steeler way this season." Props to TEN's DEF tho. Came out and put the boom to a normally strong PIT rush attack. Great game altogether. Props to PIT. The champs made the plays when they counted most. (Sep 10, 2009 | post #3)
Reed's FG Pushes Steelers Past Titans In OT
What an absolute joke Rob Bironas turned out to be. What could have been a huge statement game to begin the year for a DEF that was almost overlooked due to the departure of Albert Haynesworth, was overshadowed by a FG by Jeff Reed to end the game! One thing people can take from this game however, is that Pittsburgh is not as great as one would think. The Steeler running game was sad. Their passing game was very average. I believe Roethlisberger threw 2 INT's and 1 TD. (Sep 10, 2009 | post #1)
Pack's Barnett: 'I want to get a nice little shot on you,...
Its no secret the Packers have made whipping boys outta the Vikes for the past couple years, not including last season of course. lol @ Packers "smacking the Vikings last season. I believe MIN was in position to win at Lambeau last season, but Jackson built a better chemistry with Atari Bigby than he did his own recievers. I believe GB won by less than 6 points. And as far as the game at the metrodome goes, I dont wanna hear a god damn thing from Packers faithful. Anyone that watched that game knows the Vikings shalacked the Packers. The only reason that game APPEARED close was in spite of Gus Frerotte throwing balls directly at Packer DB's. Haha. Yo Rodgers, how many nightmares did you exactly have of Jared Allen coming off the edge, playing with virtually ONE arm. lmao. Get that Packers bullshit outta here. Get an offensive line, then give me a call. haha (Aug 27, 2009 | post #5)
I also heard Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, take questions about the possibility of GB looking at bringing in T Jackson if MIN releases him. LMAO. Yea, GB take that fucking joke. And give me a call when he continues to sail passes over wide open recievers, and with his IQ comparable to that of a peanut, buckles under pressure when the DEF brings any sort of blitz package. (Aug 25, 2009 | post #119)
I live in WI, and while all my buddies are Cheeseheads, I wont be naive (sp?) enough to say they represent ALL Packers fans. With that, I cant believe how excited fans here in WI are getting over these glorified scrimmages here in the PRESEASON. Local station radio hosts here in the Milwaukee area are already considering the Packers as NFC Conf Contenders and talking about booking tickets to Miami for the Super Bowl. HAHA. What a joke. Seriously, comical. Packers fans seem to forget that no team truly gameplans in the PRESEASON. If they do, its in the 3rd game coming up here. The Packers have beaten up on two teams who were sub .500 last season. Listening to the airwaves here makes me sick. Hey, the Vikings are 2-0, i guess I should be shouting SUPER BOWL! I am not naive, injuries could happen at any time to any player. I guess Packers fans forgot about that, even though they suffered that exact happening last season when a bunch of key defensive talent went down last season for them Packers fans, settle down.

I hope the Saints smack the taste right back into the Lions' mouths come week one. New Orleans blew them away last year and likely will again. What a sorry team. (Aug 18, 2009 | post #1)
ESPN's Tirico Intrigued By '09 Packers

ESPN's Tirico Intrigued By '09 Packers
An unbiased fan/viewer of the game would respectively disagree with your previous assumptions for this current Green Bay Packers squad. First off, GB's most recent Top 5 Draft pick is looking more and more like a bust. Granted, AJ Hawk's tackle totals have been nice; thus far hes been less than stellar. Playing to a level where guys like Desmond Bishop. Brandon Chillar, and Jeremy Thompson have buried you on the GB depth chart. Don't think for a second that this fact entitles GB a source of depth. Bishop, Chillar and Thompson would have troubling starting on over 3/4's of the rest of the league OUTSIDE of GB. Did I mention thats he looks absolutely lost in the new 3-4 scheme? Next, Aaron Kampman, the only legitimate Pass Rusher GB has had in years is completely dissatisfied and also looks like "frankenstein " out there in coverage. I cant imagine ONE TE in the NFL not salivating for the huge game they will likely have with Kampman covering him. Also, you showed love for GB's secondary? Have you realized yet that Al Harris, who is a bump n r corner, also looks ridiculously lost in the new 3-4 DEF schemes. (Aug 7, 2009 | post #8)

I'm not quite sure where to post this on these forms but here we go . . . .
I'm using Mozilla 1.7 and have an editable document in a frame for a web page of mine. The best way to explain this, I think, is with an example.
In my editable document (document.body). I have some content that a user can edit:
If the user puts the cursor at the end of the first line like so:Code:Html view: This is a formatting test. Oh such formatting we can do! Code view:
This is a formatting test.

Oh such formatting we can do!

And they press backspace this is what the editor does:Code:Html View: This is a formatting test.|<-----[cursor] Oh such formatting we can do!
Needless to say this is not what I was hoping for. It does this for both div and p tags.Code:Code view: <>This is a formatting test. Oh such formatting we can do!</>
The current way I deal with this is search the document for <> when the delete or backspace key is hit. Obviously that is a bad work around. Is there a better way of dealing with this?
Thanks for your time.

|Rob Gronkowski and Danny Woodhead injured early
|01.13.13 at 5:07 pm ET
FOXBORO — Rob Gronkowski appeared to re-injure his left forearm diving to make an athletic catch on the sideline on New England's second possession.
Gronkowski dove along the deep right sideline and came down on the forearm. He immediately went to the bench and was tended to by team doctor Tom Gill. After holding the arm and appearing to be doubled over in pain, he stood up and was escorted to the Patriots locker room for further attention.
Gronkowski was playing in his second game back from breaking the forearm on Nov. 18 against the Colts.
Meanwhile, after a carry on the Patriots' first offensive possession of the game, Danny Woodhead left the game with a left thumb injury and his return is questionable.

Man Sentenced To Close To Five Years In Prison For Charges Including Failure To Register Address ChangeWritten by Rob Eastwood
A Catawba County man will spend nearly five years in prison for failing to register a change of address by a sex offender and his admission as a habitual felon.
69-year-old Charles Patrick Hagan of Conover, was given an active prison sentence of 58 to 82 months in custody of the North Carolina Department of Adult Corrections by the Honorable Gregory R. Hayes, Superior Court Judge from Catawba County, following his guilty plea on Tuesday, July 12, 2016, in Catawba County Superior Court.
Hagan left his registered address at the Royal Inn Motel in Hickory in the fall of 2015 but did not notify the Catawba County Sheriff's Office within three days of the change as required by law.
The defendant also admitted his status as a habitual felon, which enhanced the sentence he was given.
Hagan had prior felony convictions in Iredell County (April 2003) for indecent liberties with a child; Forsyth County (October 2006) for failure to register; and Catawba County (October 2013) for failure to register.
Tommy Scarborough investigated the case for the Catawba County Sheriff's Office. Michael Van Buren and Kyle Smith handled prosecution for the District Attorney's Office.

The agency isn't ready to discuss the potential cost or any construction details, but said it would look at whether building part of the proposed new route underground is possible.

Out of tune on musical education
Is there a connection between maths, creativity and music? Einstein, an accomplished amateur violinist, certainly thought so. And many tiger mothers today have taken his advice to heart by forcing their children to take up an instrument at a very early age.
But for researchers studying how we learn, such connections are a little less clear, says Louis Lee Ngar-yin, assistant professor of educational psychology at Chinese University.
While there is a growing body of research indicating that students who follow a strict regimen of musical study can do better in school, Lee cautioned against such sweeping claims on the connection between musical education and intelligence. 'There is very little clear-cut evidence that playing music leads to improved performance in academic disciplines,' said Lee, noting there were many variables involved.
This has not stopped local parents - looking to give their children an edge in a competitive education system - from enrolling them in music lessons and enforcing strict practice schedules from an early age. Whether it is out of the belief that music makes their children smarter or simply to bulk up their university applications, music education is rarely a matter of choice.
While any kind of musical education was bound to benefit children, there was a concern that by focusing on external results rather than developing musical appreciation, parents and children would sometimes miss the point, said Bright Sheng, composer and artistic director of the upcoming Intimacy of Creativity, hosted by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, that is part of the Einstein extravaganza.
Sheng said all too often parents paid huge amounts of money for weekly piano lessons, but never took their children to hear a pianist perform.
Lee said making children learn an instrument for a university application was not fostering interest in music at all.
Shifting motivation to something external made it more likely that children would lose interest in music for its own sake, he said. Pupils learn that playing an instrument was something you did to get into a good school, he said. Once at university, 'they don't play any more'.

Elizabeth Smart a resilient example for other abuse survivors
Scott Snow, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — As Melissa walked into her bosses' office Friday afternoon, she immediately recognized the young blonde woman talking on the television.
"I am so thrilled to stand before the people of America today and give hope to other victims who have not spoken out ... about what's happened to them," Elizabeth Smart told the news reporters gathered outside the courthouse after hearing that the man who raped her nearly every day for nine months had just been found guilty. "I hope that not only is this an example that justice can be served in America, but that it is possible to move on after something terrible has happened, and that we can speak out and we will be heard."
Melissa felt like cheering.
Melissa is also a survivor of rape and violence.
She knows how daunting it is to confront her attacker in court, and the horror of sharing intimate details with a room full of strangers. Watching Smart's composure through an 18-day trial has been empowering for Melissa, and she was moved when she heard Smart mention women like her.
"I said a lot of prayers for her as well," Melissa said. "I'm glad to see that she is pulling through this and she is showing people that it isn't the end of the world when something horrific happens to you. You can get through it, and there is a lot of hope. Seeing her strong like she is, I think it does give hope to other victims."
While not every victim will recover as Smart and Melissa have, nor walk away with a guilty verdict against their attackers, therapists and professionals point out several factors in Smart's attitude and actions that make her a positive role model for others who have experienced such trauma.
"I've had a few victims actually talk about Elizabeth Smart when they come in," said Utah County special victims prosecutor Donna Kelly. "They say 'Look at her, what she went through was so horrible and she's doing pretty well.' They kind of see Elizabeth as the hope, the example of how they can put their lives back together."
Kelly has prosecuted perpetrators of sex crimes for the past 20 years, learning along the way that abuse is strikingly individual. Some of her victims have moved forward following repeated rapes at the hands of family members, while others have crumbled into addiction and depression after a one-time event of sexual abuse.
"Some people are more resilient than others," Kelly said. "We don't really know why."
Kelly and other professionals point to family support as one of the most important factors in a victim's recovery.
"Having come from a loving home, a context where needs were met, where support was ever-present, where love and harmony prevailed — all those kinds of things that seem to characterize the Smart family — created in her a bit of what psychologists simply sum up as resilience," said Jed Ericksen, a crisis social worker and University of Utah professor emeritus. "It's like you've almost got your body armor on, psychologically and emotionally, even though what she experienced would have been completely out of the realm of expectation and there wouldn't have been any specific preparation for anything like that in her life."
Smart's parents have been with her throughout the ordeal, from the massive searches when she was missing, to the myriad court hearings and the drawn-out trial.
"Today's such a wonderful day," said Lois Smart, mother of Elizabeth, who is now 23. "There was another day that she used the word 'victorious' and that is when she came home. And I think this is an exceptionally victorious day for us all as mothers, as women, as daughters, that we can go forward and these things don't have to happen to us and that there is a way to put those people behind us and that we can move forward in our lives."

Posted by a Divorce client
Without a doubt, the most competent, ethical, knowledgeable, professional, straight-forward, caring and compassionate attorney I have every had the pleasure of doing business with. I have retained a few attorneys in my days, and Mr. Simons will consistently go the extra mile to apprise you every step of the way. His staff is as phenomenal as he is. You are treated as if you are the only client they have. From inception, there was resolution to every issue and Mr. Simon's is so very respectful in the courtroom and I believe he commands that respect because of his professionalism. His fees are reasonable and believe me, once you begin to experience his representation, any other attorney will simply pale in comparison to his expertise, knowledge, follow through, professionalism, compassion and just downright kindness. His practice is quickly growing and the 2 attorneys he has added, quite simply, belong there because I believe they have a great deal in common with Mr. Simons. Going through a divorce can be devastating and Jeremy Simons and his staff will do everything to help you through this difficult time. You cannot fathom how you will survive and I guarantee you that Mr. Simons and his staff will shock you at their level of compassion, concern and by the way, when you call the office, you will always get resolution and response almost immediately. Prior to his representation, I experienced nothing but disappointment, overall cynicism for all attorneys, anger and just wanted to scream about the prejudice that was allowed toward me by former attorneys in this long and lengthy litigation. Once he was on board, I literally sat back and felt confident, safe and very well represented. Mr. Simons himself was always available and I never waited more than 1/2 day to hear back from him. Although they allow 8000 characters herein, I could easily surpass that, but suffice to say, "If you need a lawyer, turn to Jeremy T. Simons, New Port Richey, Florida." You will not be disappointed. And aside from all this, he's a nice young man and I wish him the greatest of successes in his future endeavors.

Original "Fast and Furious" writer Gary Scott Thompson has an action-thriller in the works about the world of underground fighting in Thailand's prisons, titled "Champion."
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Storyscape Entertainment's Bob Cooper ("Stargate SG-1″) and Richard Saperstein ("Se7en") are producing the action-thriller, along with Robert Kravis ("Lucky Number Slevin") and Karl Herrmann of Pioneer Pictures and Tyler Mitchell ("The Incredible Burt Wonderstone") of Landscape Entertainment.
Based on a centuries-old tradition where Thailand's prison inmates compete in Muay Thai tournaments for freedom, "Champion" follows "the journey of an American locked up abroad who must learn Muay Thai in order to fight for his freedom."
Aside from the original "Fast and Furious," Thompson has worked with Paul Verhoeven on "Hollow Man," created the Josh Duhamel-led TV series "Las Vegas" and wrote on the "Knight Rider" reboot from a few years back, among many other projects

Sometimes I'll be talking with the kids about my college or law school days, and I'll realize that email was in its infancy when I was in college, and that my cell phone when I was in law school was a clunky thing with an antenna that telescoped out and used a car charger with a coiled cable like landline phones have. And then I'll marvel at how far technology has come in such a short time.
That's even true about the decade since my oldest was born. When he was a baby, his toy cell phone was a colorful flip phone. My friend's baby who was born last year has a toy smart phone – of course he does, because that's what his parents and older brother have.
It's amazing to see how quickly technology changes, and so much fun to see how technology can help kids learn. When my oldest was little, his "technological toys" were a LeapFrog learning table and read-along/aloud books. My youngest, who's just two years behind his older brother, had a LeapFrog Leapster. Since then, as they've grown along with technology, they have both have used apps on mobile devices to sharpen their math skills, develop their problem solving abilities, and more. That's why I was intrigued by LeapFrog's new technology, LeapTV, which has been specially designed to make learning fun for youngsters ages 3-8, as shown in the video below:
LeapTV has a suggested retail price of $129, which makes it a great holiday gift!

This column was written by CBS News Early Show Co-Anchor Harry Smith.
Chances are you're in the car heading home right now and maybe you didn't see the pictures of the space shuttle taking off this morning. Here's a tip: Get in front of a TV tonight or get on the Web and take a look. The light, the clouds, the billowing smoke -- and a new twist.
NASA has mounted a camera on one of the external fuel rockets, so as the shuttle heads into space you get a brand new view.
It sounds a little space nerdy but, I'm telling you the truth, the pictures today were the best ever -- and especially powerful, considering the shuttle history. NASA has made a special point to start reminding folks that each launch really is a test flight. There is nothing routine about space travel and even with a billion dollar fix-up there's no real guarantee that this morning's lift off would be risk free. The space managers keep telling us the shuttle is as risk free as they can make it, which means this is still a very dangerous business.
I remember when Challenger went down in 1986. The endless investigation. The hearings. The frozen O-ring. What can go wrong can be oh, so simple. I was at the Kennedy Space Center then when the next shuttle finally took off. The ground rumbles, your body shudders and the shuttle grudgingly heads heavenward.
We wish the astronauts safe travels.
Harry's daily commentary can be heard on manyCBS Radio News affiliates across the country.

"I think your clients should pay better attention to what they are doing and they wouldn't get hurt," Grandma said in a fit of defense attribution.

Be Prepared for the Deposition
Insurance defense attorneys always want to take the injured claimant's deposition because that is when the defense attorney makes their money. The insurance defense attorney also tries to make the injured claimant look bad, often through no fault of the plaintiff. Insurance defense attorneys take classes on how to make the injured claimant look bad for reasons that often have nothing to do with the case. Sometimes our clients have had previous cases and I always ask what was done to prepare them for their deposition. It is amazing how many say that they met with their attorney for 30 minutes before the deposition started, or worse, there was no… Read More »

Shelling Is Beach Therapy
Shelling is beach therapy. I love a long walk along the water's edge searching for wildlife and picking up a few beautiful shells.
Yesterday at Sanibel's Bowmans Beach, the crowds disappeared as we walked passed the families set up for their beach day with umbrellas, coolers and beach chairs. The further we walked, the quieter my mind became. Everything else on the planet slipped away other than seeing a big wide open beach with shells, sand, water and sky.
Then the trance began. It's like I'm being hypnotized each time I'm at the beach when I hear the waves wash up on the sand with jingle of shells rolling back and forth.
When I walk along the shell line from a recent higher tide I'm searching for shapes, textures and colors of the shells I know so well. Aha! A SHARK'S EYE hidden among the ARKS, KITTENS PAWS and VENUS CLAMS.
There are days when the shells are piled high or washing up at your feet in droves but long walks like Clark and I took yesterday are my absolute favorite. It's what keeps me going back time and time again. It's my beach therapy.
Amazingly enough when we got back, I got a little surprise in my email inbox. I'm in a short little film about shelling! I was asked in an interview back in February about what I love about shelling. Well…. everything actually! But then it all boiled down to how it makes me feel- I'm just so dang happy when I'm on the beach and shelling takes my mind to another galaxy. It makes me appreciate how beautiful this life is. It's just that simple. The Beaches Of Fort Myers and Sanibel did an A-MAZING job on this film and I am over the moon shell, humbled and honored that I was asked to participate in it.
I hope you enjoy!
PS- Oh and yes- That's Elliot Sudal (Shelliot- heehee ) in the film too. See? I told you he isn't just a fisherman, he's a sheller! CLICK HERE to read my post about him.Read More
Learning about Seashells at the 2016 Sanibel Shell Festival
The shell world is a fascinating adventure to learn about the lives of MOLLUSKS and the people who collect their shells on the beaches across the planet. Because I am one of those people obsessed with living my life in the world of shells, I love to hang out with people who love to share their knowledge about them too. The Sanibel Shell Festival is a great place to do that.
I'm thrilled Sunnye (TX) shared her colorful shell collection she found beachcombing in Eleuthera, Bahamas (top photo).
Her sister Lisa (TX) had some awesome displays too for which they both won awards.
Lisa EXHIBITED this gorgeous SMOOTH TELLIN…
But I looooved this cool display Lisa did showing the difference between the SHARKS EYE and the FALSE SHARKS EYE. It explains and shows the difference in detail (for more info check out my post Sanibel Shark Week… Featuring The Shark Eye Shell).
And then there's Stef! I'm so happy for her- she won a blue ribbon for her double FLAT SCALLOP she found by Sanibel's Island Inn.
Wait… did you miss what I said? Okay, lemme slow down… she found both sides of her FLAT ZIGZAG SCALLOP still hinged together. Exactly like she displayed it… on Sanibel… and with amazing color. Wow! Years ago, I was thrilled when Clark found just the other half of a FLAT (the right valve) since it's rare to find them here (CLICK HERE to see what the other side looks like) … and she found both perfect valves still together. Shellzam! Congrats Stefanie!
There were lots of displays showing ALBINO shells this year but this one by Ken and Joyce Matthys was really very cool. Here they shows tons of ALBINO FLORIDA PRICKLY COCKLES they've found through the years…
In the next case they show FLORIDA PRICKLY COCKLES which are ALBINISTIC. They explain… "Some shells lack their normal color, but they are not pure white. Instead they may be pale yellow, cream-colored, or have other hints of color. These are referred to as being albinistic". Hmmm Haven't you seen some like this? I have and now we've learned a name for this color form… ALBINISTIC.
Anne Joffe's seashell emergency room display was hilarious and voted best for People's Choice award. Freak and damaged shells that repaired themselves to form in odd shapes were propped in mini doctor's offices, emergency rooms and surgery rooms with bandages, crutches and doctors notes.
Check out this PALLID CARRIER SHELL with an attached GLASS SPONGE (from the Philippines) by exhibitor Robert Linn. Wildly beautiful.
Last week I posted about the artistic side of the show with SAILORS VALENTINES, shell frames and all sorts of shell art and craft but when you look at some of these shells like these ATLANTIC TRITONS exhibited by Holly Nordyke, you realize you are looking at the most perfect work of art ever made. Stunning.
Hope to see you next year at the 80th Annual Sanibel Shell Festival!

Sanibel Sand Dollars Days
There are days on Sanibel when hundreds of COCKLE shells… or DOSINIA shells… or PEN SHELLS wash up on the beach. Well, this past week (and lots of random weeks this year) there were hundreds- if not thousands- of SAND DOLLARS washing up on the beach.
Lots of them were still living (!) but some were perfectly bare of cilia and spines which means they can no longer be alive.
If you have any doubts whether a SAND DOLLAR is alive or dead, please leave it where you found it. But if you want to learn how to tell the difference, please CLICK HERE for my post How To Identify Differences Between Live And Dead Sand Dollars.
Local sheller Karen knows the ones she can keep and was as dumbfounded as I was to find gazillions of them scattered all over the beach.
So many in perfect condition.
If you look closely at this next photo, you'll see those dark spots throughout the sand- most of those were still the live ones dotting the beach at Gulfside City Beach on Sanibel Island.
It always feels like such a special day to just see one, so I was feeling like I won the SAND DOLLAR lottery.
We have a nice collection of SAND DOLLARS already so I don't normally pick them up any more… but… I had a few events planned this week to visit with friends so Clark and I gathered a few up to give as gifts. We placed them overnight in a bleach solution then rinsed them off in the morning. CLICK HERE for a more detailed tutorial for cleaning SAND DOLLARS.
We then placed them in the sun all day to dry out. They made for wonderful party favors for my friends that evening. Gifts from the sea.
We just had some strong NE winds move in this morning so all of these sweet beach bucks might get covered back up with the wave action. We always have to remember not to take anything for granted- they're here one day and maybe gone the next. It happens that fast!
I'm working on new dates for our iLoveShelling cruises. I hope to have dates very soon so I can see y'all when you come to SW Florida to visit! I have through January… so CLICK HERE to join us!Read More
Pearls Of The Sea
SEA PEARLS and BABYS EARS were some favorite gems to be found at Lighthouse Beach this week. They blend in with all the other shells and bling so I feel so rewarded when I find one. It's like I feel lucky that I saw the beauty in them when others may have passed them by without giving them a glance. That's why beachcombers "get" each other, right? Beachcombers know there are hundreds of treasures the sea offers …but we just have to take our time to look for them.
But I feel luckiest when we meet other beach combers on the beach like Lee and Susan (formerly of Guantanamo Bay) who turn into friends for life because they feel the same way. So much fun!
We not only found those SEA BEAN treasures at Lighthouse Beach, we combed the beach at Gulfside beach…
…Where we saw some nice SAND DOLLARS, OLIVES and a few other nice finds.
Each beach we went to, we saw completely different shells and bling. We walked along Bowman's Beach to find a few small shell piles…
Lee caught a few SHARKS EYES rolling in the surf.
Oooooo… and look at that FLAT SCALLOP and ALPHABET CONE Clark found… perfect!
This was my fave find of the week… a brilliant, bright orange RIBED CANTHARUS. Omigosh… Eye candy.
But even if I didn't find the RIBBED CANTHARUS, I found happiness…
With some of my fave peeps …Read More
Different Cone Shells From Sanibel Florida
We've been enjoying walking along the shore at Sanibel's Bowmans Beach this summer since we've had our best luck finding shells no matter which direction we comb the beach. Clark had an eye for the cutie mini shells this time. As soon as he found that little DUSKY CONE (on the tips of the horsies/candy/candy corn/mac n cheese…. errrr… those juvie HORSE CONCHS) I remembered that on one of my latest shelling adventure cruises I tried to show how one can tell the difference between those and the ALPHABETS and FLORIDA CONES.
So let me try to show the difference of the shells to you too. Here is a handful of the DUSKY CONES to show you how big they are and the different colors and patterns. Also, check out that each one of them has spiral ribs along the body of the shell. If you run your thumb over the shell, it won't be smooth, you will feel all of the the little ridges.
Here's the difference between a random ALPHABET CONE, FLORIDA CONE and the DUSKY that I pulled from our collection of Sanibel shells to see the different patterns and the normal adult size of each.
In this view, you can really see those ribs on the DUSKY compared to the other two that are mostly smooth. Cool, huh?
So next time you find a small little cone shell, look a little closer to see which one you've found. Maybe it will be a DUSKY CONE like Deseray found years ago that I showed in my post Rainbow Of Miniature Shells that we compared to her sweet little ALPHIE.
UPDATE: Ive had a few people ask about the difference between the Duskys, Stearns and Jasper Cones. I used to call some of them Jasper Cones but I was corrected a few years ago (can't remember who told me- MurexKen maybe?) that the Shell Museum says that Jaspers and Stearns aren't found in our area- only Dusky Cones. So I guess Ive gotta go with with that too unless they add them to the list. Im def no scientist ;0

Paul Newman's Shark Eye at Bowman's Beach
Well there you are ol' blue eye! I found the prettiest PAUL NEWMAN'S EYE SHARKS EYE at Bowman's Beach over the weekend. I just love to find these special shells with the bright blue center.
After walking a while, Clark and I found one little spot that produced lots of other gorgeous treasures.
Most of the shells we found were just at the water's edge.
Such an amazing assortment. We haven't found such a variety like this in a while so I felt so shellucky.
I was thrilled… so I took a little video to share with you so you can see how the shells were rolling in. I didn't pick any up while I was filming so you could try to spot them too. Have fun!
We went back last night but didn't find this same assortment but I did find something that made me laugh… a broken beat up JUNONIA. Just to see those spots in the sand made my heart is a beat!

I'm building an app in WPF, using AvalonDock, partly because I think it'll be useful but mostly to teach myself some WPF and to get used to that style of programming in general. I've constructed the main "toolbox" of the app as a dockable pane so that it can be moved, pulled out or auto-hidden so that the user can make the most of their screen space, and inside it, I'm using a StackPanel to arrange the various buttons.
Is there a (relatively simple) way to have the StackPanel orient vertically when the toolbox is docked on the left or right, but horizontally when docked at the top or bottom? I'm sure there must be some way to bind the orientation to something rather than setting it directly, but I can't seem to find anything useful to bind it to.

Following guidance from the Fire Risk Assessment Network, Maintaining fire safety in the workplace is critical to any business. Not only does the right security prevent loss of life and property, it is often a legal imperative in order to even be open for business. That's on top of what should be an obvious moral imperative. Making sure that your business' physical location has appropriate fire safety in place can be accomplished with specific, concrete steps. Keep reading into the following paragraphs to learn what some of them are so you can keep your business, employees and customers safe. Always ensure you have a Kent fire risk assessment in place for your business to reduce the risk of fire.
1) Have regular fire drills. Your staff and employees should know exactly under what circumstances to evacuate a building, so fire drills should involve the fire alarms going off so they know what the relevant sights and sounds are. Everyone on duty should not only know where the fire exits are, but also how to calmly and quickly guide both coworkers and customers or guests out of the building to safety outdoors.
2) Have fire extinguishers and sprinklers tested regularly. While some businesses just go out and buy the cheapest extinguishers they can find, they do lose compression over time. It's better to have service contracts where a technician comes out regularly and certifies that any suppression systems or supplies on hand are in full and working order. In many communities, this is not just advised but legally required.
3) Get the initial fire inspection when you open. Any business open to the public, and even some that are just for private use, are required to have a fire inspection prior to being legally used. This typically involves a thorough checklist as well as receiving a determination of how many people can safely occupy a facility. Make sure that certificate is posted visibly, as often mandated, and never let your total headcount go over that number. Also honor any recommendations and especially required upgrades suggested by the inspectors.
4) Have your own fire and safety inspections at regular intervals too. Some municipalities are willing to come in and do such inspections when asked too, but it's also a good idea to have professionals come in and analyze your situation. Even if your initial construction and inspection went well, things can change over time. Make sure that your building is still up to code and using the latest advances in fire prevention and technology.
5) Check in with your building insurer regularly. You not only need to make sure that your setup meets their minimums for coverage, but they might have suggestions you can take advantage of. In fact, keeping up with their recommendations might even minimize the premiums they charge. Take advantage of every discount you can.
6) Make sure that employees are trained in fire safety. This is critical when they are hired, but also needs to be reinforced regularly with further updates and testing. Not only do you want your employees to maintain good habits of general fire safety, they need to be mindful of fire hazards that come specific to your business' niche or industry. Specific chemicals and equipment, even some vehicles and industrial processes, are all potential fire risks. Make sure that employees know how to do their work safely.
Now that you have read these tips on how to maintain fire safety in the workplace, you can see to it that your business stays open and operational without any jeopardy to those inside. Review your business' fire technologies and protocols regularly to make sure they are thorough and up to date. Your own knowledge and confidence should be an example all your employees can model.
