While it is true that a timeshare contract is a binding legal document, it is often mistakenly thought that such a contract cannot only be cancelled. In fact, most timeshare companies maintain that their contracts are non – cancellable. This misconception is perpetuated by timeshare companies and user groups that are funded, maintained and controlled by the timeshare industry.

The author fails to note that Lenda was fined 2 months ago by Oregon for failing to file its required 2014 annual financial report by March 31, 2015. They didn't file until August 2015. They have no other state licenses besides the 3 mentioned in the article. Not easy to do a roll out when you're not licensed anywhere else. Check www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org for yourself. Then look at Google street view of Lenda's official address. Not exactly the thing of a national "roll out." THEN look at the employment history of the guy running Lenda. Turns out he's also the president of the "Kingdom of Real Estate" since 2007 - I couldn't make that up - Hedging his bets in case Lenda goes splat? This guy might be a marketing whiz for getting all you fools to write about him, but no real mortgage officer should be scared of him.

John And Jim's Fantasy Draft
Manuel and Callis make their first-round picks
John Manuel and Jim Callis
June 8, 2009
What's more fun than playing scouting director? Playing scouting director for 16 teams. Our draft experts, Jim Callis and John Manuel, alternate picks and let you know who they'd choose if they were running the draft for each club, staying true to their finances and needs. Jim won the coin toss, so he gets to start off by taking the best prospect in draft history.
1. NATIONALS (Jim).
Gee, who am I going to pick here? It's obviously San Diego State righthander
Stephen Strasburg
, and I can't come up with a single reason to hesitate. He'll smash Mark Prior's record of a $10.5 million big league contract, but he's not getting close to the $50 million that adviser Scott Boras is floating out there. I think he'd get it if he were on the open market, but there's no path that would take Strasburg to free agency. His options are going to be a) sign with the Nationals and b) re-enter the 2010 draft, and he'll get offered enough to make re-entering the draft too risky. Here's a question for you—if you get your choice between Strasburg and Sports Illustrated cover boy Bryce Harper, who do you take? I'm taking Strasburg, because he's proven himself against much better competition and he's going to help me quicker, but it's not an easy decision.
2. MARINERS (John)
. If Harper were available, I'd probably pop him at 2. That's quite a statement considering North Carolina first baseman
Dustin Ackley
also is available.
I wrote about Ackley about a month ago
, and still believe he's a unique player, a future all-star. To me, that's worth paying for, even is the price tag gets close to eight figures. Ackley should hit so much, he'll be a bargain, even if he remains at first base. And if he moves to center or even second base, then all the better.
3. PADRES (Jim).
I'm with you on Ackley, I'd take him No. 2 without hesitation. It starts to get a little more interesting at No. 3, and I'm sure we'll start disagreeing with each other soon. The Padres are leaning toward Georgia high school outfielder Donavan Tate, the best athlete in the draft. If I'm a San Diego fan, I'm happy my club is doing something other than looking for a lower-ceiling college guy with a track record of statistical success. But I'm not the biggest Tate fan—I worry about his bat some, and he spurned my alma mater's football program for yours, though Georgia is demonstrably better than North Carolina—so I'd go with a different potential superstar. Give me California high school lefthander
Tyler Matzek
. He came into the year as the top lefthander available and his stock has only gone up. He has been spectacular in playoff starts the last two weeks, and some teams would be tempted to take him over Ackley.
4. PIRATES (John).
Like you said, now it gets interesting. Pirates officials have told us they don't have to go cheap at No. 4, and honestly I think the recent history of this franchise means there's no way they can avoid taking the best player available. In this year's draft, though, I think the consensus runs out at about No. 3 with Matzek. The Pirates can't go safe, they have to get some upside. At the same time, they are the Pirates, they can't take a $6-8 million guy such as Tate or Missouri prep righthander Jacob Turner. If money were no object, I'd take Turner here as the top prep righty on the Manuel board, but I think Fort Worth Cats (American Association) righthander
Aaron Crow
makes the most sense. He's motivated to sign as a virtual college senior, he has front-of-the-rotation upside and he commands the fastball, so he should get to the big leagues quickly.
5. ORIOLES (Jim).
You know who the big loser is if Crow goes No. 4? The Nationals. Crow's probably going to get paid at least close to the $4 million he wanted last year, while Washington will get a lesser talent. That's no knock on who goes No. 10, just a reality. Crow might have been in the Nationals' big league rotation by now had they signed him. Now for Baltimore . . . I think they're going to take Georgia high school righthander Zack Wheeler with this pick, but I'd go with Missouri prep righty
Jacob Turner
. Admittedly, I'm spending some extra hypothetical cash to take the guy I think is the best talent on the board here. If I wanted someone I felt I could sign before Aug. 15, I'd lean toward Wheeler too.
6. GIANTS (John).
Interesting point on Crow. I can't say I disagree, nor do I disagree that Turner is the best prep righthander available. The Giants in the past would be all over someone like Wheeler at No. 6 in this situation, and we know that general manager Brian Sabean has seen Wheeler pitch himself. But the Giants have become much more daring about rebuilding their franchise the last few years, particularly in terms of position players. They've paid large bonuses internationally and domestically, and shouldn't be scared off by Georgia high school outfielder
Donavan Tate's
price tag. He has a high upside as a potential premium defender, and the Giants have enough prospects to be patient with Tate's bat, which could need more time than most clubs are willing to give.
7. BRAVES (Jim).
I wouldn't take Tate quite so high, though I'll acknowledge that he's a good fit for the Giants. That leaves me with a very easy pick. If the draft unfolds like this, the Braves will get the player they covet, Georgia high school righthander
Zack Wheeler
. He's also a good fit for them because he's a relatively easy sign compared to a lot of the other top talents, plus he's the top player remaining on my draft board at this point.
8. REDS (John).
I love it when a plan comes together. There are certain players who will come up that I know I like and you don't, and I'll be taking them. Tate was one of them. I don't think you're down on North Carolina righthander
Alex White
, though I'm pretty sure I was higher on him than you throughout most of this process. I don't have any problem with White using a split-finger fastball, like some scouts do. I know he's going to be an impact big leaguer, because at the least he'll pump 96-mph fastballs with life and that splitter out of a closer role. I have faith in White's athleticism and ability to spin a breaking ball. He has lost faith in his slider but the pitch is still there. He'd be a great fit with the Reds.
9. TIGERS (Jim).
Here's where it gets tough, because Texas high school lefty Matthew Purke is the best player on the board. The Tigers haven't been afraid to spend big to get players such as Justin Verlander, Andrew Miller and Rick Porcello, and they're happy with how all three of those guys have turned out. But Purke's father apparently wants Porcello money ($7 million) for his son, and while Matthew is very talented, that's at least twice what I'd want to pay him. I'm not ready to pull the trigger on St. Paul Saints (American Association) righthander Tanner Scheppers yet either. He has thrown hard this spring, but he had serious shoulder issues a year ago, and shoulder issues scare me. I'm going to go for a little gamesmanship here, because there are a couple of players I like that I don't think you're going to pop, so I'll take Texas high school righthander
Shelby Miller
. He's got the best high school fastball in this draft, and that works for me.
10. NATIONALS (John).
This is one of the toughest choices, as a couple of very tempting picks are on the board and Washington has to get it right. The Nats don't get compensation if they fail to sign this player. With that in mind, I'm taking a player that I can take with conviction, someone with upside but also someone who won't break the bank, which is how the real-life Nats are handling things. I know acting GM Mike Rizzo told you
that they can spend here
, but I think that means they can spend slot. I'll go off the board here and take Florida prep shortstop
Nick Franklin
at 10. Why? First, when you have to do something like this—where money is a huge factor—I think you stick to some scouting truisms. Take an up-the-middle player. Take a player whose bat you can believe in. Take a good-makeup guy. Scouts in Florida say Franklin fits all those parameters and he finished very well in Sebring at the Florida high school all-star games. For me, he's the top prep shortstop in the draft because his bat is better than Jiovanni Mier's. So Franklin's my guy.
11. ROCKIES (Jim).
I like it. Let's mix it up . . . OK, you knew this was coming at some point: I'm taking Missouri righthander
Kyle Gibson
, even after we broke the news Saturday that
he has a stress fracture in his forearm.
You know I love Gibson as a prospect, probably more than his own parents do. The guy has starred since day one as a freshman, he has three quality pitches, command, athleticism . . . and that stress fracture. But I'll explain why this makes some sense. Gibson will be able to throw by the end of July, giving the Rockies 2-3 weeks to evaluate him before the Aug. 15 deadline. They want a college pitcher here, and if he checks out, they get a guy they really didn't have a shot at a week ago. And here's the thing: If he doesn't look good, they can walk away and put the roughly $2 million in this pick into signing their bonus picks (for losing Brian Fuentes) at No. 32 and No. 34. It all makes sense to me, at least, but you knew I'd be rationalizing a way to take Gibson.
12. ROYALS (John).
I knew, but I didn't anticipate you'd pop him that early. As a guy who relies on the two-seamer, Gibson makes all kinds of sense there. Now we get to Kansas City, which has gone all-Boras Corp. the last three years. Luke Hochevar, Mike Moustakas and Eric Hosmer . . . two outta three ain't bad. The buzz around the draft has the Royals going for a catcher and taking Boston College's Tony Sanchez. I can see that being a logical pick because they could use help behind the plate, and Sanchez is the best college catcher on the board. But a Boras client that's too good to pass up also is available, and Southern California shortstop
Grant Green
makes more sense for me here than Sanchez. He's not as safe a pick, but he's got more upside. Usually, I think the Cape Cod League is over-rated, but I'm banking that Green's rumored hand injury is the reason he didn't hit for power this spring. Get him healthy, get him back with a wood bat and get the Royals a middle-of-the-diamond talent with offensive upside.
13. ATHLETICS (Jim).
Bravo. There's buzz that the Royals are after Green, too, and he makes all kinds of sense there. I would have done the same thing. Maybe he's not as good as he looked in the Cape Cod League last summer, where he drew some crazy Evan Longoria comps, but he has more power than he has shown this spring. As for the Athletics, I've heard them on all sorts of players, from Tate (hard for me to believe) and other high-ceiling high school athletes to proven college performers with less upside, such as Vanderbilt lefthander Mike Minor. Minor, by the way, probably is off the board to someone by this point, but not for me. Or you apparently. Oakland needs position players more than pitchers and is more comfortable with collegians than high schoolers, so I'll grab Sacramento State outfielder
Tim Wheeler
. He has the best bat/power combo of the athletic college outfield crop that also includes Notre Dame's A.J. Pollock, Louisiana State's Jared Mitchell and California's Brett Jackson.
14. RANGERS (John).
The Rangers would love to get a Texas prep fireballer to put into a system already deep with power arms. Shelby Miller and Matthew Purke both fit that bill. But the Rangers have plenty of young fireballers, and Purke's pricetag worries me. They could use a fast-rising college pitcher who knows how to lead a pitching staff and win, while also having wicked stuff. That's Arizona State righthander
Mike Leake
. I'm not too worried about the 370-plus innings Leake has thrown in college. Maybe I should be, but he's been so efficient, it's hard to look past him at this spot.
15. INDIANS (Jim).
The Indians want an experienced pitcher and there's a guy sitting right here who may have the second-best stuff in the draft after Strasburg. We're not privy to the medical reports on St. Paul Saints (American Association) righthander
Tanner Scheppers
, but if they're clean, this is the point where his value clearly begins to outweigh any nagging doubts about his shoulder. I couldn't take Scheppers at No. 9, but I can take him here.
16. DIAMONDBACKS (John).
Scheppers really is one of the most fascinating people in the draft. Medical information is tough for the clubs to come by, not to mention us, but that pick would make a lot of sense for the Indians, who lack true power arms in their otherwise solid system. The Diamondbacks do as well, and would love a shot at homestate hero Leake. I just messed that up for myself two picks ago by taking Leake with the Rangers, and with all their picks in this draft, I don't see the Diamondbacks being the team that goes off the reservation for Purke. I do think that as we've said, there's no way Vanderbilt lefthander
Mike Minor
lasts this long, even if we're not as enamored of him as clubs are. His pitchability profile isn't my cup of tea, but he makes more sense at 16 than some of the power arms remaining here, most of whom profile as relievers. I can't let Minor go by here.
17. DIAMONDBACKS (Jim).
I bet Minor goes in the top 10 somewhere, but I agree that the Diamondbacks would snap him up if he's still available and Leake's gone. Ideally, they'd get one arm and one bat here at 16-17, which they can do by taking the best reasonably signable player still on the board: Florida high school third baseman
Bobby Borchering
. He's the best prep power hitter in the draft and a good fit for Arizona.
18. MARLINS (John).
Now we're getting to the tough part, because I would think most teams in the second half of the first round were thinking, "Wow, we might get Minor or Borchering or Scheppers," and at this point, those hopes have been dashed. The Marlins love their Oklahomans, and they have had all kinds of success with prep pitching in the draft and less so with college arms. That makes me think Oklahoma prep lefthander
Chad James
makes sense here, and I'd do what it takes to get the deal done (within reason, of course).
19. CARDINALS (Jim).
We're agreeing way too much. I'm on board with the James pick, for his talent and for the reasons you suggest. I don't think he'll be that hard to sign, though like almost every first-rounder, he's not just going to roll over and accept MLB's decision to cut its slot recommendations by 10 percent. The Cardinals need some lefthanders and they would have thought long and hard about James. Purke is still out there and easily the best player available, but I'm not sure St. Louis is hopping on that train. There's still an obvious choice, for both talent and need: Lipscomb lefthander
Rex Brothers
20. BLUE JAYS (John).
Oh, we're devastated in the Toronto war room. We had Brothers' advisor on the phone telling him he'd be gone at 20 at the latest, and he didn't get to us. We have other options for power lefties in this draft though. Two, Andy Oliver and Canada native James Paxton, are attractive at 20 but also have Scott Boras Corp. advising them. Then there's Purke, who's falling. In the end, Kennesaw State righthander
Chad Jenkins
is too attractive. Yes, there are college closers we could convert (and we've had success doing it), but why do that when Jenkins is on the board? He has stuff, he has pitchability and he has relatively low mileage on his arm because the Owls were never postseason-eligible while Jenkins was in college. Make it so.
21. ASTROS (Jim).
We keep hearing outfielders, outfielders and more outfielders for the Astros, especially those with Texas connections, such as high schoolers
Everett Williams
, Slade Heathcott and Randal Grichuk. If they look out of state, Mitchell, Pollock, Jackson, New Jersey prepster Mike Trout and Puerto Rican high school Reymond Fuentes are also talented. We're going to see a bunch of these guys go in the bottom third of the first round. Houston apparently is not hot for Williams, but I am. He has the best combination of hitting ability and athleticism of that group. If Pollock is still on the board, and I don't think he necessarily will be, I could see the Astros going that route.
22. TWINS (John).
The Twins like all those same players the Astros like, I think, Jim. They just have too many of them at the lower levels of their system, and they sure don't need another outfielder in the first round, even if Jared Mitchell—whom the Twins drafted out of high school—is staring them in the face. The Twins also are who they are, so Purke just keeps on falling. Taking a college closer isn't usually what people think of with the Twins, and even last year's first-rounder, Carlos Gutierrez, is being groomed to start. That said, the Twins need help in the bullpen in the short-term, and I think Stanford closer
Drew Storen
fits here. He's a candidate to set up in the majors as soon as 2010, and Joe Nathan is closing in on 35 years old. Storen, more of a strikeout pitcher than Gutierrez, would move to the front of the line of Nathan's successors.
23. WHIITE SOX (Jim).
I'll take athletic outfielders for $200, Alex. GM Kenny Williams loves athletes, loves them, and his team really needs a center fielder of the future. Outside of Donavan Tate, Louisiana State outfielder
Jared Mitchell
is as athletic as it gets in this draft. He also doubles as a wide receiver for the football team, and while he still has to figure things out with the bat, he made impressive and encouraging strides this year.
24. ANGELS (John).
The Angels would seem to be a good fit for Mitchell but he's gone. Mainly, the Angels need to sign their guys this draft, which actually runs counter to my pick. Texas prep lefthander
Matthew Purk
e is just too good for the Angels to pass up. They pick again at 25, plus 42, 44 and 48 in the supplemental round. Purke will be a tough, late sign, but with all those extra picks, scouting director Eddie Bane will hold a tough line, get everyone else signed and get something done with Purke—around 11:58 p.m. on Deadline Day.
25. ANGELS (Jim).
The Angels aren't afraid to spend, but I'm not sure they'll bypass talented and more signable California high school pitchers Matt Hobgood and Tyler Skaggs to take the ultra-expensive Purke. But since you've taken a pitcher for them, I'll take athletic outfielders for $300, Alex. (And I'll keep running that joke into the ground until I run out of athletic outfielders to draft and teams that are looking for them.) Pollock is a more advanced hitter who would deliver a quicker return, but I see the Angels opting for New Jersey prep outfielder
Mike Trout
26. BREWERS (John).
Milwaukee is still in win-now mode, a welcome change for the franchise. The last time Milwaukee had to wait until No. 26 for its first pick was way, way back in 1983, when they took Dan Plesac 26th overall. The Brew Crew would love to have a college reliever who could maybe even help this year at this spot, but it's just not a good year for that. I don't think an organization constantly short on pitching could pass on Indiana righthander
Eric Arnett
if he fell this far. That's a good value for a college power pitcher with fairly low mileage on his arm.
27. MARINERS (Jim).
I'm surprised Arnett lasted this long, and I'm not sure he will on Tuesday. As tempted as I am to take another athletic outfielder, there's another pitcher who probably won't fall this far whom I can't ignore. After getting Ackley at No. 2, the Mariners can balance him with power-armed California high school righthander
Matt Hobgood
. Everyone keeps telling me he's going in the first 20 picks, certainly the first 25, though I still can't figure out what his destination will be.
28. RED SOX (John).
I'll take "Guys Who Won't Last This Long for $200 . . . Isn't that what she said, Trebeck?" You'll have to imagine that in Darrell Hammond's Sean Connery impersonation from Saturday Night Live's "Celebrity Jeopardy" parody. Anyway, Boston College catcher
Tony Sanchez
probably won't be there at 28 either. I expect a tough sign to fall to Boston—Purke? Turner?—but in this exercise, no one fits that bill. Sanchez has gotten some Kelly Shoppach comparisons, and the Red Sox took Shoppach way back when and have seen him develop into a useful catcher with the Indians. The Red Sox could use a catcher, and I think they take the local (though Sanchez is actually from south Florida).
29. YANKEES (Jim).
So a little local flavor for the Red Sox? If I took a catcher there, I'd go for California high schooler Max Stassi because I think he's a better bet to hit. There's no elite talent with an outlandish price tag for the Yankees to take here, and though they're linked to a possible big-money deal with Mississippi prep two-way star David Renfroe, I believe they can wait a round or two for that. Another two-way star, Texas high school outfielder
Slade Heathcott
, has been on fire in the state playoffs and drawing lots of high-level scouts. He was very impressive in front of top Yankees officials and they're looking at a lot of outfielders, so Heathcott makes sense.
30. RAYS (John).
Tampa would love to pop Sanchez if he were available, and I think Stassi is also in the mix for an organization that has plenty of talent and depth but is lacking behind the plate. This draft gives them plenty of options, and there's enough depth that the Rays don't have to pop a catcher in the first round; they can get one later. But I will anyway with North Carolina prepster
Wil Myers
, who has one of the better high school bats in the draft. The best thing about Myers is, if he catches, it's a big bonus. He's also athletic enough that he has value if he moves elsewhere, such as right or even center field (he's a 55 runner on the 20-to-80 scouting scale). That separates him from Stassi, for me. I love Stassi, but have to pass here.
31. CUBS (Jim).
The Cubs would have plenty of nice values to choose from if the draft unfolds like this. They're on Pollock, Jackson and Kansas high school righthander Garrett Gould, and they'd have to consider California prepster Jiovanni Mier, the best shortstop in the draft if you think that Green may have to move off the position. Chicago's greatest need is in center field and they love Notre Dame, so
A.J. Pollock
is the choice.
32. ROCKIES (John).
Well, Colorado already has one gem in the first round with righthander Kyle Gibson, whom you took for them at the No. 11 pick. Even with his stress fracture, he's the safer college pitcher pick, and a solid value at 11. If California prep catcher
Max Stassi
is still here at 32, I think Colorado has to jump up and get him, whether Chris Iannetta is the real deal (which I think he is) or not. You can never have too much catching, and Stassi reminds me a lot of Iannetta as a catcher with a rock-solid swing, solid tools otherwise and savvy. He's not as physical but might have a more pure swing. I'm fairly confident he'll hit.
It's always easier to spend someone else's money, and I think the real first round will have more surprises that this one. I don't expect all the tough signs to go as early as we took them, and where Kyle Gibson and Tanner Scheppers wind up also remains quite uncertain. Now back to the draft phones (and texts, and e-mails) for me.
I only hope Tuesday is this easy. I doubt that Mike Minor will last to the 16th pick, and I frankly don't think the Nationals will take Nick Franklin at No. 10, even though I imagine he'll be a first-rounder.

Words: , Hymns for Infant Minds, 1809.
Music: St. Leonard (Smart), , 1867. Alternate tune:
Lord, I would own Thy tender care,
And all Thy love to me;
The food I eat, the clothes I wear,
Are all bestowed by Thee.
'Tis Thou preservest me from death
And dangers every hour;
I cannot draw another breath
Unless Thou give me power.
Kind angels guard me every night,
As round my bed they stay:
Nor am I absent from Thy sight
In darkness or by day.
My health, and friends, and parents dear,
To me by God are giv'n;
I have not any blessing here
But what is sent from Heav'n.
Such goodness, Lord, and constant care,
I never can repay;
But may it be my daily prayer,
To love Thee and obey.

text: January 19, 2017 Garnett, David S Tagged: Author | Editor (1947- ) UK writer, author of a large number of books, many of them novels, in various genres and under various names. To differentiate himself from the elder David Garnett he created a middle initial to add to his own name, and in the US signed his early books Dav Garnett, for the same reason; he has published novels also as David Lee and David Ferring. His sf has always been action-oriented and dominated by Space-Opera conventions, which he has never been able to take entirely seriously (nor has he often attempted to write sf in other categories); his first book, Mirror in the Sky (1969), guys those traditions with disillusioned but moderate spite; Stargonauts (1994) enjoyably broadens the assault. The Bikini Planet sequence, comprising Bikini Planet (2000) and Space Wasters (2001), ineffably broadens the slapstick. But Garnett's third novel, Time in Eclipse (1974) – written like its 1970s successors for Robert Hale Limited – is a comparatively ambitious effort set on a war-torn Earth whose guardian is an Amnesiac obscurely bound to a vast Computer. Much of his work has been marked by haste and, occasionally, indifference, so that the anarchic subtexts pervading his most routine tales can seem unintended, which is almost certainly unfair to the author's subversive bent of mind. As editor, Garnett was responsible for an original story anthology series, Zenith: The Best in New British Science Fiction (anth 1989) and Zenith 2: The Best in New British Science Fiction (anth 1990); during the same period, he also edited The Orbit Science Fiction Yearbook 1 (anth 1988), #2 (anth 1989) and #3 (anth 1990), distinguished from other year's-best anthologies by its smaller size and greater concentration on critical material, each volume including essays on the sf scene by Brian W Aldiss, John Clute and Garnett himself. The ambitiousness of the critical work in this sequence was centrally due to his encouragement. When both Zenith and Orbit were terminated, he initiated – with the approval of Michael Moorcock – a new incarnation of New Worlds, this time in anthology form – comprising New Worlds (anth 1991), New Worlds 2 (anth 1992), #3 (anth 1993) and #4 (anth 1994), plus an unnumbered final volume, New Worlds (anth 1997) – and combining features of both earlier sequences: original fictions, plus further critical work. Further instalments of New Worlds were mooted but did not appear. [JC] see also: Anthologies; Game-Worlds.

While on Pinterest, where I hangout regularly, I found this inspiring quote:
This is SO me. I have never been and don't imagine being a worksheet teacher. Blogland, for the most part has reinforced this thinking and given me tons of ideas for creating student learning and engagement that a worksheet could never do. I am so thankful for the world of blogging! One of my blogging friends who I think fits this quote so well is Miss Trayers over at Not Just Child's Play. She is so good at pushing kids' thinking....lots of brain wrinkling going on! A while back she did a blog post about book characters and what they would chose to wear for Halloween. So clever....you can read about it here. So I had my students think of a character they had recently met while reading and had them draw them in their Halloween costumes.
Ramona as a tube of toothpaste, because she once poured the whole tube down the sink.
Big Nate as a zombie, because he likes to dress scary and scare his teacher, Godfrey.
I have a group of kids who LOVE the Poppy books:-)
You should go check out Not Just Child's Play and say hi! You might get some brain wrinkles for yourself!
Happy Thursday,

from The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 4th Edition
- n. Intensive, forcible indoctrination, usually political or religious, aimed at destroying a person's basic convictions and attitudes and replacing them with an alternative set of fixed beliefs.

- n. forcible indoctrination into a new set of attitudes and beliefs
from The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 4th Edition
British journalist Edward Hunter translated the term brainwashing in his 1953 book, "Brain-Washing in Red China," which described communist techniques for controlling the minds of nonbelievers.
He agreed the term brainwashing can be used in two different senses, involving an element of physical force and no such physical element.
* Some one somewhere took the term brainwashing literally.
Melvin Bledsoe described what he called the brainwashing' of his son, saying Carlos was a happy teenager who changed after he went to college and converted.
He spent his time in prison trying to undo the years of what he calls the brainwashing he received as a young man in Suweidi.
But even though we've been inundated with all these waves of social engineering-that's what they call brainwashing nowadays-I'm nevertheless optimistic that, if we succeed in building up a force in Germany that reminds people about Germany's culture in science and art, that the German people is nevertheless a people with enormous potential.
Talk of "brainwashing" is everywhere -- this cleansing action allegedly to take place in a mere twenty minutes or so, unlike the lengthy, far less efficient efforts of the Chinese during the Korean War.
I'd pay a subscription fee if I could have what you are talking about - and maybe a little less brainwashing from the advertisers ......
This just sounds like brainwashing from a faith based therapist.
Perhaps in brainwashing 101 we can use some math too.

text: Ravens Parade Enjoyed By All, Minus The Stabbing And TramplingBarry Petchesky2/08/13 10:25amFiled to: Baltimore RavensParadesPolice BlotterBaltimoreCrimeNewsAppicNfl70EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkThe rest of the country was taken aback by the spirit shown by Baltimore, as an estimated 200,000 people thronged downtown for the Ravens championship parade on Tuesday. Also taken by surprise: city and team officials, who were woefully unprepared for the sheer number of people who showed up—especially the more-than-capacity crowd that descended on M&T Bank Stadium.Owner Steve Bisciotti said he expected 30,000 people to attend the free ceremony at the stadium, and that they expected to maybe have to open the upper deck. Instead it quickly became standing-room only, with fans spilling onto the field, and the Ravens had to close the gates. We saw a hint of the pandemonium with this video of fans scaling the outside of the stadium to get in, but it sounds like things were a little Thunderdomish in there.

Assume the two tarps would not be sewn together.
Options, or whether it's evern worth it (i.e., an 8×10 is far better than two 8x5s).
Not exactly what you are looking for but the picture at the very bottom of this article shows to ID Sil Ponchos pitched together:
Whoops, Members-only article… Can you describe the setup?
BTW, I ordered BPL "Lightweight Backpacking and Camping," is the setup described in there?
Actually the book has a better picture of the setup on pg 293. Two poncho tarps are snapped together with the windward side pitched very low but not to the ground. Pretty cool stuff.
You can affectivly turn two 8x5s into a 8×10 by joining them length-wise and using that as the ridgeline for a A-frame style pitch.
Keeping that ridgeline from leaking, however, would take a little creativity.
Hi All,
Thanks for the insight. I looked at the pitch of the two poncho tarps (p. 293?) and have some ideas. I'm thinking of overlapping the two tarps along the 8' sides by 1' or so, as there are 5 loops along the 5' sides, and adding additional guys to the ground from the 1' overhang. Might be noisy, though…

Are you new to SQL Server? Looking to brush up your skills? Thrust into a SQL Server DBA role or been asked to administer some databases? Are you only familiar with another RDBMS or a Windows administrator? Is your company implementing a SQL Server-based application and you are familiar only with another vendor's RDBMS? This two-day, six-part series is designed for you.
Presented by Allan Hirt
While performance is usually the first thing people think about when it comes to their SQL Server implementations, there's no point in having the most optimized system in the world if your databases or instances are not up and running. Are you currently achieving your uptime goals? Do you understand the different options available to you when it comes to SQL Server high availability? Are you curious to see what it really takes to achieve uptime? If so, these three sessions are designed for you.
Presented by Andy Leonard
This new training event that will introduce you to the SSIS Catalog, demonstrating support for the enterprise data integration lifecycle starting with development and continuing through execution, instrumentation, parameterization, and monitoring.
Presented by Ben DeBow
Some say performance tuning SQL Server is an art; others say it's a science. It's a bit of both of those, but also more. Many factors determine how well (or poor) SQL Server will perform, and it starts well before any application database is installed into an instance.

Are mixed signals simply bad signals in disguise?
As a therapist, my single clients and friends often ask me what might be happening in their relationships when they get "mixed signals" or "mixed messages." First, let's define what this means. UrbanDictionary.com states that mixed signals are given by people who contradict themselves via words or actions when they are interested in a member of the opposite sex. LawDictionary.org defines this concept as "a confusing message made uncertain by serving to multiple interpretations at the same time." Similarly, Barron's Business Dictionary at Answers.com calls this phenomenon an "unclear message; usually two contradicting messages." These similar definitions indicate that there is a general consensus as to what mixed signals are, but they don't explain why they happen to us or what we can do about them!
We seem to be able to tell when we are receiving mixed signals, but we do not always know what they mean. Wouldn't it be nice to have an app that decodes the mixed messages? Well, unfortunately we don't, so I'll break it down as simply as possible! The mixed signals mean one of two things:
- I'm not that into you and I am too immature to tell you
- I have an "insecure attachment style" and I will forever feel ambivalent towards you and love in general.
When a member of the opposite sex is not that into you, they may actually be ambivalent. Ambivalence is a state of having simultaneous, conflicting reactions or feelings towards something (hint: that "something" is you!). They may believe that there are both positive and negative aspects to you and the relationship. In this sort of situation the individual may experience "mixed feelings," uncertainty or indecisiveness concerning the relationship. This may be a more "forgivable" form of mixed signals, especially early in the relationship. It is very possible to have mixed feelings that the person does not want to disclose until things become clearer. The solution is for you to directly ask for clarification. If someone can't at least be grown-up and honest enough to directly tell you that they are feeling ambivalent or confused, it may be time to reconsider continuing the relationship.
If you are with someone with an "insecure attachment style," this most likely means that he or she is dismissive of the need for intimacy or fearful of intimacy and closeness in relationships. The person may even prefer being alone more than being with other people. Sending a mixed signal is designed to keep things off balance or create distance. Ultimately, it makes you question whether or not you can count on this person. You will begin to wonder if they will be emotionally responsive to you and your needs. You may have someone who is not capable of commitment in this circumstance. Just like with a person who is "not that into you," the resulution still involves the direct communication of your concerns.
I would also encourage expressing some empathy in return if the person makes a whole-hearted attempt to talk about their thoughts and feelings from a place of honesty. You may not be hearing what you want, but you do need to face the truth. If instead your partner shuts down further or sends even more mixed messages, this can trigger your anxiety and fruitless attempts to get the relationship on track. This becomes a painful, vicious cycle.
Many people chalk up their relationship difficulties to "poor communication." I believe that unless your partner is speaking in a second language, there is no reason that a mature adult can't speak clearly and directly. Do you really want to be with someone who sends mixed signals? I know that it can be maddening and that we hold on to hope when we experience attraction or chemistry. You start to poll all of your friends and family, driving yourself completely insane as you try to find validation for your feelings. It is much healthier to ask yourself, "why am I okay with this?" and "what do I do about it," not, "what do these mixed signals mean?"
Be empowered to take charge of your life by straightforwardly discussing what you see happening and your feelings about it. You want a partner that can come to the table and do this with you, too. If the object of your affection is incapable of this communication, please do not dismiss it or try all sorts of ways to fix it. File it away under the "red flag" section and seriously consider moving on!

Top-shelf rant
One of my recurrent peeves with bars down under is how so many of them misuse their 'top-shelf'.
And it is not just restricted to local pubs, but many of the classier, up-market establishments are guilty as well.
The 'top-shelf' is supposed to be reserved for the superior quality (and thereby more expensive) spirits and liqueurs; your single barrel Bourbons, single malt Scotch, XO and above Cognacs, premium vodkas and such. Hence the term 'top-shelf drink', as opposed to 'well-drinks' (cheaper liquors that lie in the well of the bar and is easier for the barmen to get to).
A simple storage space for Smirnoff Vodkas is not what the top-shelves are for. Yes, I have seen that for real.
Worse still, as I spotted last night at a trendy local bar, a top-shelf should not be used to display beer-bottles – unless it is a beer-bar; at least not Matilda Bay brews (which mind you are quite decent brews); but especially not…….. Corona Extra Light !!!!
I have vented before about the puzzling fascination Aussies seem to have for this watery ghastliness, especially with the insufferable lime wedges. At least there is no accounting for bad tastes.
But to place the stuff on a top-shelf is pure sacrilege.
1: note that at a newsagent, the word has different connotations.

Kelli Ward is preparing for a long summer. With Arizona's congressional primaries seemingly far off on the horizon in August, the former Arizona state senator has a ways to go on the road to unseat sitting Senator John McCain (AZ-R).
Despite the facing daunting challenge of taking on a three-decade incumbent, Ward sees that this just might be the time to do it, according to a phone interview with Conservative Review on Wednesday.
"You've seen it across the whole country, people are angry, upset, disappointed and disgusted with Washington, DC, with inside the beltway politics, and I see that right here in Arizona as well. But I think that people are turning that negativity to positivity," said Ward of the support she's seen for her candidacy. "And it really is giving people hope that we can turn the Senate more conservative than it is, and that the conservatives that are currently there are people like Senator [Ted] Cruz, Senator [Rand] Paul and Senator [Mike] Lee are going to have reinforcements to help them actually get things done to put this country on the right track."
Immigration and veterans issues are two of the big issues on which Ward, who has been endorsed by CR's Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin, has been hitting McCain hard, she said in the interview.
"Stop holding hearings," she implored. "Stop holding town halls, stop writing letters and actually do something for the veterans who served our country so honorably."
Listen to the full interview here:
"[McCain] basically failed us [on immigration]. He lied; He said he wanted to build a [border] fence and then he ran right to the gang of eight amnesty bill, and the comprehensive immigration reform that we all know is code for amnesty," said the candidate. "So that on the ground here in Arizona is very, very important."
Also on Ward's agenda are recent scandals at the Veterans Administration, which she said has failed to adequately serve America's servicemen and women under McCain's—whom she referred to as "the most famous veteran in America" and the world—watch on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
"Stop holding hearings," she implored. "Stop holding town halls, stop writing letters and actually do something for the veterans who served our country so honorably."
"Our country should be getting our priorities straight," on veteran's and immigration issues, Ward said when asked about her recently-avowed support of presidential candidate Donald Trump, and how she believes it will impact her appeal among voters in the armed forces. "The current administration [and Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton] prioritize people who have come into our country illegally…they even prioritize the LGBT community above our veterans; our veterans need to be at the top of our priority list."
Ward, who was in the Arizona Senate during the showdown over the state's failed Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), also weighed in on the ongoing battle over North Carolina's HB2.
"Loretta Lynch is even suing the state of North Carolina over an issue that really is a state's rights issue…and that's coming from the top-down. The top of the Obama Administration on down. And the media follows right along many times. And though these are small groups; the LGBT community is pretty small in this country. But they are given a huge microphone to change the culture in this country."
Citing immigration, school choice and veterans' issues, Ward again lamented what she views as America's mismatched priorities. "There are so many things that we should have above trying to figure out which bathroom people can use," she said. "The rest of the world is concerned about terrorism, is concerned about the economy, is concerned about jobs and the Obama Administration is concerned about where we use the bathroom."
"The most important thing is to have a backbone," when standing up to public pressure on issues like HB2 and Arizona's RFRA, said Ward when asked how congressional conservatives could assist N.C. Governor Pat McCrory (R). "I think that you have to stand up to the hypocrisy of recording stars and movie stars…that are saying 'we're not going to North Carolina,' and then on the flipside they're going to places in the Middle East who don't allow women to drive, who require them to cover their, who give them no freedom whatsoever, let alone to choose where they're able to go to the bathroom or not…you have to be fearless."
Ward also hit back against National Right to Life's recent endorsement of her primary opponent during the call, which she called a "political favor" from a "big national group."
"My voting record is 100 percent pro-life; his, not so much," said Ward, referencing McCain's previous support for fetal tissue research, and went on to argue that McCain's support thereof "set us up for Planned Parenthood to be able to harvest and sell baby body parts."
National Right to Life did not respond to CR's request for comment.
"John McCain is deeply honored to have the support of NRLC, the nation's oldest and largest pro-life organization. He has received a 100% rating from this organization every year since 2009," reads an emailed statement from the incumbent's campaign, who also sent CR "questionable" statements from Ward in 2012 such as: "I think the government has come too much into the doctor-patient relationship in all areas, and I think abortion is one of those areas."
Ward, who recently said she expected to ride the "Trump Wave" into Washington, also addressed potential concerns stemming from her association and support of the candidate in, and recent disagreement in the conservative movement about whether or not Donald Trump will make a trustworthy bedfellow. When pressed about threats to her street cred, the candidate said that she believes in a lot of the same "populist conservative values" as the New York billionaire.
Ward will face off against McCain in the Arizona congressional primary on August 30.

Subject: pet & sitting
In need to find and person to pet and house sit while I am on vacation August 17th through August 19th.
Victoria Engelhardt, owner
Cat Calls
Oak Park, Ill.
Alenka Andruss, owner
Pet Watchers Inc.
Evanston, Ill.
Sharon McNair, owner
Doggy Doo & Kitty Too
What should I look for when choosing a sitter for my pet?
Engelhardt: Make sure they're bonded and insured. Ask if the same person will be seeing your pet every day.
Andruss: Have your animal with you when you meet the sitter and see how they interact. Ask for references and check them.
McNair: If were hiring a pet sitter, I'd ask for at least four references.
What services do you provide during visits?
Engelhardt: We do daily dog walking and vacation care. We'll refill food and water, scoop cat litter, give medication and provide whatever attention the owners want. We'll water plants and bring in the paper and mail.
Andruss: We'll feed the animals, play with them, brush them, and give them medication if needed. We'll also water plants and bring in mail.
McNair: We'll do whatever the owner wants. It's common for us to help socialize a rescued animal. Mostly, we do daily dog walks and boarding in my house.
How do you charge for your services?
Engelhardt: $14 for the first pet, and $4.50 for each additional pet.
Andruss: It's $15 per visit for the first animal and $2 for each additional animal.
McNair: $13 per visit if it's four or five days a week, $16 per visit for one or two days a week. There's an additional $3 for extra pets.
What plan should be in place for emergencies?
Engelhardt: We ask who their vet is, and have them sign a consent form that says we can take the animal to their vet or an emergency vet. We always try to contact the client first.
Andruss: A medical emergency takes precedence over everything. We'll take the animal to your vet if it's during the day or your animal 911 emergency center.
McNair: I'll be on the phone with the vet and then call the client.
What do you do to protect my house's security?
Engelhardt: I check references on all my sitters. Our bond covers us if we're accused of wrongdoing, and we've never had to use it in my 25 years in this business.
Andruss: We have two copies of the keys, and they never have your name or address on them.
McNair: Everyone who takes a pet sitter is taking that person based on some type of referral or information. People go with their gut. The references are very important in this regard.

Best output transformer for 300B
I'm another one that's been bitten. Having thoroughly enjoyed modding a couple of valve amps, I'm not starting to think about designing my own. My current thought is 300B (or 2A3) single ended. As I'm starting to price up components, can we have a straw poll of which of the 2 following transformers would be best? 1) Tamura F-475 2) James 6123-HS ...both seem to get good reviews. What d'ya think? Cheers, Chris. |

I think you should consider a few more transformers. There are lliterally dozens of SE transformers that would suit a 300b, some 3K and some 5k. The Lundahl range, O-netics, Bartolucci, Hammond, Rohrentechnik, Hashimoto, Silk, Tango, Audio Note. Tribute if you can wait.
Hit list would likely go: Tribute Tamura Lundahl = James = Hashimoto = Tango = O-netics Bartolucci = Audio Note Electraprint Magnequest Hammond You may want to set some money aside for interstages - also very important. |

I would recommend Lundahl LL1620 or LL1623 OPT. I have tried the LL1620 in my 45 tube amp and it sounds great. The price is rather reasonable.

I see a lot of custom toroidal 300B OPT's on eBay for whatever reason. If you're a gambler like me, that's the way I would go.

Hi all, Thanks for your replies, it's greatly appreciated. I've already done a bit of shopping around for prices and reviews - that's 1 of the reasons why I'd already narrowed down to James and Tamura - the 2nd being I like the aesthetics of them. Regarding the interstages, I was going to capacitively couple them to the front end stage instead - is this not a good idea? Cheers, Chris |

I took that bet and lost. Things might have changed since but it appears the SE models I bought a couple years back weren't air gapped. The low end rolled off below 200 Hz. Parafeed brought back the bass but didn't raise them above mediocre. I dropped them for generic A-V toroid power transformers (different application, not the right ratio for a 300b) which measured much better in parafeed. Not so much a matter of getting what you pay for since the A-Vs were salvage but of 'buyer beware'.

The James 6123-HS are very good for the price, it beats out the low end Tango, for some serious transformers you should also consider the custom wind transformers on a large amorphous core from Intact audio, you can set the gap on them and tune by your own ears, single secondary winding only on mine, each transformer weight over 10lb, not much in the look department, but they do sound wonderful.

I use a Tamura F-475 for my 45 and while you can use it for the 300B, you have to pick that operating point wherein you're not going to exceed the current limit of 45mA.
I'm now using James JS-6113HS and I'm very happy with the results. Real value for money, nice looking too. I'm using 3.5K tap. |

My favs in a very limited field of comparison: Tamura F-5002 amorphous core 3K. They are exorbitantly expensive, but the amplifiers I built using them were the best I've ever done.
