We are trying to achieve globally coordinated transaction behaviour in message flows involving integration with our application using custom JCA resource adapters and user defined nodes (UDN). Now our custom JCA resource adapters have the XA transaction interfaces implemented. We have developed user defined nodes (UDN) for the inbound and outbound integration scenarios with our application. Now we want to achieve globally coordinated transaction for a message flow involving MQInput->Compute->JDBC->UDN->JMSOut nodes in sequence.
My questions are
1) How do I enlist my JCA resource adapter as a participating resource manager in WMQ Queue Manager ?
2) How do I implement Automatic Transaction behaviour in UDN implementation ?
Any pointers is appreciated.

Whether you are like this woman who has a stash of spring sling-backs hidden
under her bed...........
Or if the weather has simply inspired you to want to get out and move more,
experiencing Universal Principles of Movement through the spring support
(not resistance) of the Pilates reformer, can engage the sense of suspension, and the shock-absorber-like resilience of your own body's spring-like mechanisms.
The Achilles tendons can be
imagined as little spring-loaded mechanisms
to take the spring feeling that you can connect to through
the footwork on the
Pilates reformer
and transfer that sensation
of spring to the sacrum.
If you like, review the video of the previous Pilates Iconoclast weblog post entitled
"The Spring in Your Step Could Be The Achilles." The video at the end of this post will build on that utilization of the springs on the Pilates reformer to create that feeling of buoyancy and spring through the sacrum and beyond.
Just like the little springs inside
things like this
remote control,
the battery must load on to the spring in order for the other end to connect to its receptacle in order to receive the charge.
For anyone needing to know exactly what a sacrum is,
here is one for you to peruse...... actually,
this is a plaster cast
of a sacrum, aligned
with my actual
sacroiliac joints.
Most people are well aware of the
dimpled areas that reflect the sacroiliac joints,
but have little knowledge or functional awareness
of the massive stability that the sacrum
in between those joints encompasses.
Also note the tiny tail bone at the end of the sacrum here.
If you like, review the "Footing" Pilates Iconoclast weblog post
for the connection between the tailbone and the heels.
It is more apparent
on a physical level
that if the Achilles
are crunched, and not
uncoiling in a way as
to assist the lengthening
of the sacrum,
the sacrum will be
crunched as well.
Many people, when arching the spine, don't ground down
through the feet, and thus
crunch both the Achilles and
smash the sacrum up into
the lower spine.
In my Pilates studio,
we use sandbags on
the feet to give a
feeling of groundedness
And hands or fists laid on the feet can also assist in uncoiling the Achilles
Extension (what most people know as arching) of the spine is crucial to postural support, and general health of the spine. Proper, functionally supportive extension of the spine must involve the feet.
Although the following video accompanying this Pilates Iconoclast post involves the Pilates reformer, I am including it here to give an inkling of how the springiness of the Achilles enabled partly through the springs connected to the Pilates apparatus moves from the feet to the sacrum to the lumbar spine and on into the ribs.
Spring is here!

Agreement of share in a WILLed Property
My unmarried aunt (mother's sister) who presently lives in Bangalore has willed her flat to my elder sister. My sister has promised me that she will share half of this property with me, only when she gets it.
But as her husband, her two children and their respective spouses may influence her decision (especially in her old age) can we make a legal document about sharing. Can such a document legally be made? Will it have legal validity?
Oral promises hold no validity. Your sister has no legal right in this property. Her legal right in this property will commence only when she gets this property. Till then your sister cannot make any legal document in your favor.

In the late 1960s Sir Donald Bradman was persuaded to place much of his personal material in the State Library of South Australia. Fifty-two scrapbooks documenting his playing career were catalogued and mounted in chronological order. In return Sir Donald donated a significant number of personal items of memorabilia to the library including various bats, balls, trophies, clothing and other pieces which became known as the Bradman Collection.
It was originally Sir Donald's wish that a home for the collection might one day be found at Adelaide Oval and this took place in August, 2008 to coincide with the centenary of his birth.
The Bradman Collection Museum follows his progress from club cricketer to the international stage. It notes his rise to hero status in the 1930s and how that status has been maintained. It explores his major role in cricket administration and provides glimpses of the family man and all-round sportsman.
Hassell worked closely with the Library and SACA to design a contemporary museum of international standards that is unique, functional and user friendly.

ARCADIA, Calif. - For the second consecutive year, the winners of the two Breeders' Cup races for juveniles are far from certain to win divisional championships.
Though Texas Red was a dominant winner of Saturday's $2 million Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita, it was his first win in a stakes. In September, he finished third behind American Pharoah in the Grade 1 FrontRunner Stakes. American Pharoah, who also won the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity, was withdrawn from the Juvenile on Tuesday with an injury.
Meanwhile, Take Charge Brandi's 61-1 upset in the $2 million Juvenile Fillies certainly muddied the waters in that division. Each of the six Grade 1 dirt/synthetic races contested for juvenile fillies - the Spinaway (Condo Commando,) Frizette (By the Moon), Alcibiades (Peace and War), Chandelier (Angela Renee), Del Mar Debutante (Sunset Glow), and Juvenile Fillies (Take Charge Brandi) - was won by a different horse.
Lady Eli, the dominant winner of Friday's Grade 1 Juvenile Fillies Turf who also won the Grade 3 Miss Grillo and is unbeaten in three starts, likely has to be thrown into the mix.
In 2013, New Year's Day won the Juvenile at 10-1, but Shared Belief, who did not compete in the Breeders' Cup, won the championship based on dominant victories in the Hollywood Prevue and Hollywood Futurity at now defunct Hollywood Park.
Ria Antonia was placed first by the stewards in last year's Juvenile Fillies after the stewards disqualified She's a Tiger for interference. She's a Tiger was voted divisional champion.
Prior to last year, 26 of the first 29 Juvenile Fillies winners were voted champion and 23 of the first 29 Juvenile winners were voted champion.
Texas Red's performance in the Juvenile could be tough to deny. Last early, Texas Red made a sweeping five-wide move and galloped to a 6 1/2-length victory over Carpe Diem.
"Some may say his move was the result of a pace falling apart in front of him but horses that were on the pace in some of the other races weren't falling apart," trainer Keith Desormeaux said. "He picked them up and really finished strong. I thought it was impressive the way he finished off nice horses by open lengths."
Desormeaux said that Texas Red would remain in light training with him at Santa Anita before he begins to map out a 3-year-old campaign for the son of Afleet Alex. Desormeaux said he believes the horse will improve next year.
"This horse is so far physically from being mature. That's what excites me the most," Desormeaux said. "He's only going to get stronger. Physically, he shouldn't be this fast."
Texas Red ran 1 1/16 miles in 1:41.91 and earned a 104 Beyer Speed figure.
Desormeaux said he believes that Texas Red beat the best field of 2-year-olds assembled this year and "I think it showed he's deserving of being a champion."
Carpe Diem, the 9-5 favorite who got up in the last jump to nose out Upstart for second, and Daredevil, who stopped abruptly and finished last as the 5-2 favorite, were headed to WinStar Farm for a freshening, trainer Todd Pletcher said.
Pletcher said Carpe Diem was "almost not recognizable" after taking so much dirt.
"The last sixteenth of a mile I thought he leveled off and ran really well," Pletcher said.
Pletcher said other than being very wide entering the first turn, Daredevil had no plausible excuse for his poor performance.
"Nothing has shown up," Pletcher said. "He cooled out well, scoped fine. He was in good order this morning."
Meanwhile, Sunday morning, D. Wayne Lukas was still basking in his record 20th Breeders' Cup victory and sixth in the Juvenile Fillies. Take Charge Brandi, the longest shot in the field at 61-1, led gate to wire and held off Top Decile to win by a half-length.
At $125.40, Take Charge Brandi was the third highest-priced winner in the 31-year history of the Breeders' Cup behind Arcangues ($269.20 in 1993 Classic) and Court Vision ($131.60 in 2011 Mile).
It was Take Charge Brandi's first stakes victory in her fifth try. Take Charge Brandi was second in the Grade 3 Schuylerville before double-digit length losses in the Adirondack, Pocahontas and Alcibiades.
"She just wants to be left alone," Lukas said. "She had given some indications in the morning that she doesn't want you fooling with her. Sometimes as trainers we try to get them to rate or go between horses. I told Victor [Espinoza] 'just be a passenger. If she's good enough she'll win.' "
Take Charge Brandi ran 1 1/16 miles in 1:41.95 and was assigned a Beyer Speed Figure of 83.
Lukas said he believes that Take Charge Brandi won the most important race run in the division this year and for that she should be strongly considered for a championship.
"If you win the race that everybody wants to win, that's got to count a lot more than a Grade 1 race at any racetrack," Lukas said. "Every filly that was in the mix was there, we whipped them and we whipped them with style."
Take Charge Brandi did return to Churchill on Sunday and Lukas said he would take a serious look at running Take Charge Brandi in the Grade 2, $200,000 Golden Rod Stakes on Nov. 29.
Pletcher, who trained fourth-place finisher Feathered and 10th-place finisher Angela Renee - the 3-1 favorite- said both horses would return to New York and one or both could be aimed at the Grade 2, $400,000 Demoiselle at Aqueduct on Nov. 29.
I liked Take Charge Brandi's maiden win. I still liked her when she finished second to Fashion Alert at Saratoga. After that race, I got a little discouraged, although I noted she was facing fast paces in her losses. But, with 2 year olds they can improve at any time.
She has every right to become a nice one as a niece of Will Take Charge.
Take Charge Brandi will be downgraded for winning on what was clearly a speed-biased track for the first four races Saturday. Lady Eli's race in the JFT was so awesome it will be hard to deny her the award. As for Texas Red, while the speed bias from earlier in the day had been corrected (or just had worn off) and the track was fair by the time the race was run, it was a visually impressive win in good time. Combined with a closing 2nd vs. American Pharoah in the Front Runner Stakes, a race in which AP walked on the lead, I think Texas Red deserves the Eclipse. Getting hurt and missing the division championship shouldn't improve your chances of winning the Eclipse, it should hurt them.
Did Pletcher not run any? Did not see any of the 150 2 year olds he started within the results section
Neither winner should be named champion. They haven't done enough this year, while others have looked better. Lady Eli and American Pharaoh for me (barring the results over the remainder of the year, which could change things).
Both dirt juvenile races had the same final time. But the beyers are totally different...104 and an 83 on the same day. The beyer figures need to be retired.
Unless they run again this year and win, neither Texas Red and certainly Take Charge Brandi have a chance at winning an Eclipse. At this point, Lady Eli stands to become the first grass filly to win this award. American Pharaoh wins it right now with his impressive two Grade 1's.

Here is a jewelry box I made as a Christmas gift for our neighbors daughter. I call her the "little girl next door" because I do not remember her name. They have been living next door to us for three years now. I do know her dad's name though. Anyway, the box is made of sycamore. The trays are made of oak. The top tray is a design based on some I have seen on this sight. Her mom said she loves it.

It used to be that I would see my list of bookmarks when I poked the bookmark icon. But now, all of a sudden< I no longer get my bookmarks but, instead, a screen labeled History. What have i done wrong?
Afraid I don't understand your question. My settings are whatever the iPad came with; I have not changed anything. As I said, I am very green here.
Thanks all. I found the answer to my original question. The screen that appears when I click the open book icon DOES show my bookmarks, AS WELL as my History. ThEre is an option button there I was not seeing.

Atelectasis Sam Wasmann
Atelectasis: Collapse or loss of lung volume May involve entire lung, a lobe, a segment, or be subsegmental There are 5 mechanisms of atelectasis: 1) (Post) obstructive 2-5) Non-obstructive – typically due to loss of contact between parietal and visceral pleura. This presentation will cover the 5 mechanisms of atelectasis, as well as radiographic findings of collapse in all 5 lung lobes.
Atelectasis Does Not Cause Fever In a 1995 study of 100 postoperative cardiac surgery patients receiving daily portable chest x-rays, "no association could be found between fever and amount of atelectasis. This contradicts common textbook dogma but agrees with previous human study and animal experiments." Engoren, Milo. "Lack of Association Between Atelectasis and Fever." Chest. Volume 107(1) January 1995 pp 81-84 A 1988 study of 270 patients after elective intra- abdominal surgery found that "neither the presence nor the absence of fever can assure clinicians of the presence or absence of a postoperative pathologic pulmonary complication such as atelectasis." Roberts J, Barnes W, Pennock M, Browne GD. "Diagnostic Accuracy of Fever as a Measure of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications." Heart Lung. 1988 Mar;17(2):166-70
CXR Findings in Atelectasis Direct: Displacement of fissures Increased opacification of airless lobe Crowded air bronchograms (non-obstructive only) or vessels Indirect: Displacement of hilar structures Ipsilateral cardiomediastinal shift Narrowing of ipsilateral intercostal spaces Obscured structures adjacent to atelectasis Elevation of ipsilateral diaphragmatic leaflet Hyperexpansion/hyperlucency of remaining aerated lung
Typical findings of atelectasis in this patient include: 1) Hazy opacity in left upper lung (direct sign) 2) Left tracheal shift (indirect sign) 3) Loss of left cardiac silhouette (indirect sign)
Lobar Collapse
Right Lobar Anatomy Approximate position of right upper, middle and lower lobes on chest x-ray.
Right Lobar Anatomy Lateral View
Left Lobar Anatomy Approximate position of left upper and lower lobes on chest x-ray.
Left Lobar Anatomy Lateral View
Right Upper Lobe Atelectasis Findings include: Elevation of right hilum and minor fissure Collapsed lobe shifts cephalad and medially If due to a central mass, the minor fissure retracts cranially with a lateral upward convexity and a medial caudal convexity (S-sign of Golden). This suggests neoplastic etiology.
Right upper lobe atelectasis: The atelectatic RUL forms a triangular opacity (arrow). The elevated minor fissure is retracted cranially (see image below) and forms a reverse S shape (S- sign of Golden) as it curves around the hilar mass (M).
Right Middle Lobe Atelectasis Right middle lobe is only 10% of total lung volume. Greater tendency to collapse than other lobes. Radiographic findings can be subtle: Small triangular opacity pointing laterally Obscured right heart border Lateral view: obliquely oriented triangular opacity with apex pointed toward hilum.
Right middle lobe atelectasis: There is a small triangular opacity pointing laterally, right cardiac border is partially obscured, and slightly lower lung volume in right compared to left.
Lateral view: The arrows point to the major and minor fissures which are parallel to each other. The atelectatic middle lobe is the opacity between the fissures. Notice that it projects over the cardiac silhouette.
Right Lower Lobe Atelectasis When atelectatic, right lower lobe retracts posteromedially and inferiorly. Major fissure is shifted downward and becomes visible As RLL collapses, it forms a triangular opacity which obscures the left lobe pulmonary artery, and eventually forms a right paraspinal mass that projects behind the right atrium. On lateral view, posterior 1/3 of right diaphragm is obscured by collapsed RLL. Diaphragm may not be obscured on frontal view because hyperexpanded middle lobe abuts it.
RLL Atelectasis: Triangular opacity in right lower hemithorax. The lateral border is the major fissure (not normally seen on frontal view). Right hilum is displaced caudally and partially obscured. The hyperexpanded RML outlines the cardiac border and right hemidiaphragm.
Left Upper Lobe Atelectasis Faint, hazy opacity in left upper hemithorax 50% of patients have complete major fissure Main pulmonary trunk and upper contour of left pulmonary artery are obliterated Left hilar structures and left lower lobe are retracted caudally (look for superior segment vessels from the lower lobe occupying the apex, mimicking an aerated upper lobe) 50% have an incomplete major fissure Tongue of aerated lower lobe is pulled forward by atelectatic lobe, between the atelectasis and the aortic arch, forming a crescent-shaped lucency (Luftsichel sign) Diaphragm typically elevated
Left upper lobe atelectasis: Opacity contiguous to the aortic arch. The mediastinum is shifted toward the left hemithorax, which is small in comparison to the right. The main pulmonary trunk and the left pulmonary artery are obliterated.
Left upper lobe atelectasis in patient with incomplete major fissure: There is an ill-defined opacity in the left half of the left upper thorax. The trachea is deviated left and the left hilum is retracted superiorly. Vascular branches to the left lower lobe superior segment form an array of linear and tubular opacities. The arrow shows a vertical lucency separating the aortic arch from the vertical margin of the collapsed lobe (Luftsichel).
Left Lower Lobe Atelectasis Common after cardiac surgery Radiographic findings include: Increased retrocardiac opacity Obscuring of the left lower lobe vessels and left hemidiaphragm Caudal displacement of left hilum Levorotation of cardiac silhouette with flattening of cardiac waist Mediastinal shift can cause partial obliteration of aortic arch
LLL Atelectasis: Notice the wedge shaped opacity behind the cardiac silhouette. The border is formed by the major fissure (arrow). The left hilum is partially obscured and displaced caudally. The left upper lobe is hyperexpanded accounting for the increased lucency in the left hemithorax.
Complete Atelectasis of Entire Lung Total collapse of a lung Complete opacification of an entire hemithorax Ipsilateral cardiomediastinal shift (in massive pleural effusion, would shift to contralateral side). Cardiac silhouette, one hemidiaphragm, and one hilum are obscured in lateral projection.
Complete left lung atelectasis: There is mediastinal displacement, opacification, and loss of volume in the left hemithorax. The cardiac silhouette (which is shifted left) is obscured, as are the left hilum and left hemidiaphragm.
Mechanisms of Atelectasis
Obstructive (Resorptive) Atelectasis Most common type Results from blockage of airway mucous plugging, foreign body, neoplasm, or inflammatory debris Air distal to obstruction is resorbed from nonventilated alveoli Findings include loss of lung volume without presence of air bronchograms
Post-obstructive atelectasis of RLL: The major fissure is visible as it has rotated into view. There are no air bronchograms seen within the atelectatic region of lung. The patient is intubated. The obstruction is likely due to mucous plugging.
Non-obstructive Atelectasis 1) Passive 2) Compressive 3) Cicatrization 4) Adhesive In these forms of atelectasis secretions are able drain up the bronchial tree. Because there is no obstruction, bronchoscopy is not therapeutic.
Passive (Relaxation) Atelectasis 2 nd most common form of atelectasis Contact between parietal and visceral pleura is lost due to pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Leads to generalized collapse.
Passive atelectasis: Notice the crowded air bronchograms (arrows) in the setting of a left pleural effusion. Air bronchograms are not present in post- obstructive atelectasis.
Compressive Atelectasis Due to external compression of lung May be caused by loculated collection of pleural fluid or by masses in chest wall, pleura, or parenchyma. Similar to relaxation atelectasis but collapse is local rather than generalized.
Compressive atelectasis: Chest x-ray showing a giant bulla occupying more than two thirds of the right hemithorax and compressing the underlying lung upward and toward the mediastinum. Crowded air bronchograms can be seen (arrows).
Adhesive Atelectasis Caused by adherence of the alveolar wall surfaces in the setting of surfactant deficiency (e.g., hyaline membrane disease) Surfactant has phospholipid dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine, which prevents lung collapse by reducing the surface tension of the alveoli Lack of surfactant or inactive surfactant cause alveolar instability and collapse
Adhesive atelectasis in infant with hyaline membrane disease: CXR reveals bilateral ground- glass appearance of the lungs (atelectasis) and air bronchograms standing (red arrow) out against the collapsed parenchyma.
Cicatrization Atelectasis Secondary to fibrosis (scarring) of lung parenchyma with subseqent lack of expansion Etiologies include granulomatous disease (often occurs in sarcoid, fungal, and chronic TB), necrotizing pneumonia, and radiation.
Cicatrization atelectasis: Lung destruction in patient with chronic pulmonary tuberculosis.

Robert Caruana Dingli, a master of pictorial technique, started feeling the siren's lure wafting from Europe to place his talent and inspiration in the wake of the more moderately daring experimentations that were then taking over all the more progressive metropolises of art. This book makes public a unique trove of over a hundred personal letters written during and after the First World War by Robert to his close friend and mentor, the art expert Vincenzo Bonello. Robert's letters come across as passionate, emotional, often quite over the top. These letters deal preponderantly with current matters, painters' gossip, art work in progress, money problems, the international art scene and, sometimes, with more personal issues. When he considered the occasion warranted it, he could be mercilessly scathing towards other artists and notaverse to resorting to colourful, sometimes scurrilous if not outright vulgar, turns of phrase.

Packers' Mike McCarthy on Tuesday's OTA
Green Bay ---- Running highlights of Mike McCarthy's presser after Tuesday's organized team activity...
On the start: Feel good about the start. Goal of everybody to have a better off-season this year than last year. ...Have accomplished that so far. Ready to install full offense, defense, special teams for upcoming season.
On Tretter: J.C. was injured yesterday. He will not be available rest of OTA's. Not going to get into roll call, injuries. Here to talk about players who were here today.
On rookies at practice: Wanted to make sure trainers had day to load up on players for one day, particularly low-body exercises. ...Felt it was important for rookies to adjust to the tempo of the veterans because it's just different. Rookie orientation camp was one of the better ones. Today was kind of typical, first time team takes the feel. Disjointed. Energy was great. Team has to learn to practice together. I feel very good about where we're at as a team in phase 3.
On Bulaga/Sitton on left side: Excited for them personally. They look at it as a great opportunity; excited for challenge. My responsibility with reps, working against Clay and defensive line. Speed is important. ...Feel Bryan is our best tackle. Have a right-handed quarterback so you put your best tackle on the left side. Important for us to have flexibility at both sides to give Aaron Rodgers capabilities at the line of scrimmage.
On Bulaga's hip: Looks good. He probably feels he could have played at some point late in the season. It was a path of rehab that was in his best interest long-term. It seems like I've seen Bryan almost every day since the season ended.
On Mike Neal at OLB: Depends on how you use big guys in space. Drop them into fire zone, too. We're going to expand Mike Neal's role. Going to wait on specifics until Week 1 of the season.
On OL being ready: Important to get everybody ready. We have to get them all ready. Way we're structured right now as you watch our practices and our offensive line, you're going to see different combinations of all players because we want competition along the line. Important because at end of the season players are playing new positions. Hope that changes. Sometimes guys are playing two, three positions. Credit to our coaches.
On Bishop/Sherrod/House: I'd like to see those guys out there. To rank those three, Bishop has best chance to return soon.
On Shields: Sam Shields is a young player. Program has helped young players develop. Wish Sam was here. Not here for specific reasons, if he wants to answer he can answer. Opportunity to compete. Very competitive. Wish he was here.
On top three WR: Ability to stay interchangeable a true asset to program, especially at wide receiver. Ability to keep moving players around is something we feel we can use to our advantage. How it plays out in game plan will ultimately tell the story.
On safety competition: Opportunity to compete. When you look at how much M.D. and McMillian played last year, I look for them to make that jump. Take that second-year jump. Will be very competitive. Morgan has established himself as the leader back there. Feel very good about how both of those guys have taken leadership role.
On Jolly: With Johnny's situation, will speak on that more once he gets up here.
On tragedy in Oklahoma: Having an opportunity to live in Kansas City. Daughter goes to school in KC. Really hits home. I go back to my job in Missouri. ...Living in that part of the country, it's something you have to live with and be aware of. If you've ever been around tornado site, it's something you never want to deal with. My heart goes out to the families.

Apparently, five Japanese TV broadcasters are cooking up plans for Internet TV-related with ad giant Dentsu and communications conglomerate Softbank. That's according to a report from Reuters that quotes "sources".
The sources said Softbank aims to create a new joint venture that will launch a Web site with more than 1,000 television programmes distributed by the broadcasters next spring that would be available to viewers at no cost and funded by commercials.
Interesting stuff. Also noteworthy — U.S. cable player Comcast has been involved in the discussions. It's potentially providing programming, according to the report.

I named this piece
Taking the Stage
because the tulips look like they are all crowding forward for a curtain call, the spotlight hitting some but missing others. I have so much fun personifying tulips through my artwork and titles.
I spent the longest on the bright yellow-orange tulip in the foreground, probably an hour and a half. It was a challenge to portray the reflective and transparent light. I love the zoomed in cropping and the peekaboo of the bottom red tulip's center.

Today I finally finished this painting. It was a lot of hard work and concentration and a lot of color mixing. As you can see below, I used 4 palettes to hold all of my paint. I named it
June Brides
because the blossoms are standing figures in warm colors, reminding me of a beautiful bride posing in the summertime for her picture. For prints, e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
This painting was part of the Logan Fine Art juried salon in October 2011 and it will be for sale at my show November 2nd.

oil - in progress
I began this piece today; it is the first of 8 to hit the easel that I have planned out for future shows by year's end. I am tired just thinking about finishing it. It took me all day to do just this. I haven't arrived at that magic moment of the painting where it flies out of my brush. I am concentrating a great deal on just where I am in the leaves/stems that I can't yet see color. Paintings of this size and subject are started like a hard jigsaw puzzle: one piece at a time. But you just wait until it's done - I can see it and it's a beaut!

Meaning of name Savannah
Etymology : From the English word for the large grassy plain, ultimately deriving from the Taino (Native American) word zabana
Saint :
Origin : English
Rate this first name :
Who is she?
With two master numbers, we are in the presence of a deeply humane and altruistic individual with a powerful personality. Savannah is extremely sensitive and remarkably intuitive. Such high vibrations incite her to advocate a better world and to take care of the most underprivileged people on this planet. Material contingencies are of secondary importance, as far as she is concerned. While she is often an enlightened or inspired soul - with both knowledge and creative talent, it is not always possible for her to experience these energies at such a high level due to the difficulties that they entail. They could therefore be expressed as a tendency to day-dream, hypersensitivity, emotional fragility, dependence, suggestibility and selflessness. Her emotional equilibrium is often precarious because a high level of nervous tension is inextricable from such a passionate temperament. As a little girl, Savannah is endearing and adorable, eager to please and particularly receptive to her family environment. It only takes a minor emotional upheaval or a parental disagreement for her to feel completely lost and out of her depth, which she can respond to by becoming totally withdrawn. Parents, it is important to encourage her autonomy and sense of duty while taking care to respect her fragile nature and preserve the carefree innocence of her childhood.
What does she like?
Savannah is a very emotionally orientated lady who possesses an active imagination inclined to flights of fancy, magic and marvel. Not particularly materialistic, she tends to seek solace in her thoughts and day-dreams as a way of escaping the more unexciting side of material reality. She is very fond of travelling and other countries, mystery, spirituality and the unusual; as well as anything else that appeals to her craving for escapism. Music is another welcome distraction from the humdrum. In matters of the heart, Savannah is romantic and a big softie! An idealist, she puts her man on a pedestal, running the risk of disillusion when the veil finally falls... She is a tender, affectionate and maternal woman who seeks true union (karmic 11), and is quite capable of forgetting herself for those she loves.
Get your free Personality test card now !!
What does she do?
This configuration has all the ingredients for a glittering success. The social and artistic domains are particularly royal roads, the material realm being neither a priority nor a condition. Savannah is likely to find satisfaction in one of the following careers: teaching, psychology, sociology, counselling, education..., music and other artistic activities..., astrology or graphology - unless religion is an area of interest, or anything to do with philosophy, philanthropy or humanitarian issues.

Your favorite Apple, iPhone, iPad, iOS, Jailbreak, and Cydia site.
Thread: HELP!!! ""app name" Failed to install" Cant sync my apps on iOS5!!
10-26-2011, 06:42 PM #1HELP!!! ""app name" Failed to install" Cant sync my apps on iOS5!!
I have an iphone 4 that was jailbroken at ios4.3 and i updated it to 5. After restoring it a few times to get iMessage to work, i cannot get my app store apps to sync. About 1/8 of all my 179 apps went to my iPHone. i legally purchased all of them (most are free). Apps like google voice are not syncing, but other like angry birds are. I do not know why some are and some arnt. If i launch the app store on my phone, i can successfully download the apps like google voice that did not sync from itunes. This is really pissing me off. WHY CANT THIS JUST WORK!?!?!?
I have tried:
-restoring my phone
-restarting itunes and the computer(windows)
The error message i receive is simply ""app name" Failed to install" as a uialertview on the iphone. this happens after it downloads, and while its installing. GRRR what happened to the somewhat useful messages in itunes on ios 4? can i get them back? they at least told me why it failed. Now all i can do is get mad at itunes. >.<
I have also tested the .IPAs with 7-zip and it says they are valid.
-i have the latest itunes(10.5).
after i restore the phone, i set it up as a new phone, and dont restore from backup by the way.
Oh and this is my first post so if i posted in the wrong spot or something sorry.
It sounds like "set up as a know phone" somehow set your phone to forget all its entitlements. So any apps you downloaded before are saved with the old set of entitlements which are now showing as invalid.
When you re-download them in iTunes or AppStore it generates new entitlements for them on the fly, or something like that. It comes down to Apple's crappy DRM and the way its designed not to trust you (the end-user) under any circumstances.
Maybe, next time you update, don't set up as new phone?
Sorry I can't be more helpful; I've seen this before but don't know of any workaround.
oh ok thanks i will try that. I did that previously and iMessaged didn't work >.< looks like i might end up re downloading them all
so i deleted crazy tanks from my itunes library, which was one of the apps that didnt install, then redownloaded it, then synced it and it worked. will now do this for all the apps...
IS this happening because i jailbroke? or is it apple's fault? id say its apple's fault cause im not currently jailbroken ( but will when untethered comes out for iOS5 )Last edited by flyingninjas; 10-27-2011 at 05:55 PM.

CMA CGM JULES VERNE : Innovation & Technology for the environment
Renowned for its leadership in technology, its efficient fleet but also its commitment to sustainable development, every year CMA CGM places more emphasis on innovation.
As a result of this strategy, the CMA CGM Group has reduced its CO2 emissions by 30% since 2005, with the target being a reduction of 50% by 2015.
Equipped with innovative instruments and the latest technology, the CMA CGM JULES VERNE, like the CMA CGM MARCO POLO and CMA CGM ALEXANDER VON HUMBOLDT, boasts impressive performances with 36g of CO2 per km/TEU emitted, that's 12% less than vessels in the 13,800 TEU series. What's more, the CMA CGM JULES VERNE has an EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) of 10.56.
This figure is 30% below the maximum standard required by the IMO (International Maritime Organization) and already conforms to the targets set by the IMO for 2025.
1. Twisted leading edge rudder - 2. Eco-containers - 3. NOx emission : compliant with Tier II regulation - 4. Link with Fleet Navigation Center - Eco-speed - 5. Tin-free antifouling - 6. Optimised Hull Lines - 7. Pre-swirl stator - 8. Cargo hold bilge - water holding tank - 9. Exhaust gas by pass - 10. Additional bilge water tank - 11. Electronically controlled engine - 12. Grey waters tank - 13. Water ballast IN - 14. Water ballast treatment - 15. Water ballast OUT - 16. Fast oil Recovery System - 17. Low sulfur fuel - 18. Multichamber waste compactors
Electronic injection engine
This latest generation of engines considerably reduces consumption of fuel (-3% on average) and for oil (-25%).
Exhaust by-pass system
The vessel's design has been specifically adapted for slow-steaming by fitting the main engine with an exhaust by-pass system to improve energy efficiency at low loads, and thereby reducing fuel consumption by around 1.5% at slow speeds.
Pre-Swirl Stator ®
This device alters the inflow angles to the propeller to maximise propulsion efficiency. Combined with the twisted leading edge rudder, it optimizes the vessel's hydrodynamics and cuts fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions by 2 to 4%.
Twisted leading edge rudder
This system improves the vessel's hydrodynamics (optimising water flow), significantly reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimized hull design
The hull design noticeably improves the vessel's propulsion through the water.
Connection to the port's electricity supply
The vessel has been fitted with all the necessary equipment to connect to a port's electricity supply during pier operations.
New system for treating ballast water
To protect the marine environment and wildlife from foreign organisms which travel in ballast water, the CMA CGM JULES VERNE is equipped with an approved ballast water treatment system, although this regulation is not yet in force. Treated at the point when it is pumped on board and again during deballasting operations, ballast water is filtered and passed under UV lamps so that water ejected into the sea is totally free of any living organisms. The system was specifically chosen by CMA CGM as there are no chemical products being ejected into the sea.
Additional equipment for better safety
The CMA CGM JULES VERNE has an extra decanting tank. Additional tanks allow bilge water, engine and grey water to be treated. Lastly, all equipment on deck is electric to eliminate problems with hydraulic fluid leaks.
The CMA CGM JULES VERNE is also fitted with pollution management technology in the form of the Fast Oil Recovery System. This reliable, safe and simple scheme allows hydrocarbons in the fuel bunkers to be rapidly recovered without having to go through the hull.

The SCOAN, the Arena of Liberty has been a beehive of activities with worshippers pouring in from all corners of the world to fellowship with the Lord and mark a new dawn in their Christian lives. Coinciding with the birthday of the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua who was celebrating his 51st birthday on 12th June, The SCOAN was caught in a frenzy of celebration although the actual day of the prophet's birthday was mild and moderate being a day dedicated to prayer for the nation, Nigeria and the world.Worshippers from all over the globe grabbed the opportunity to thank God for the life of the man of God who has selflessly served as a true patriot of the Lord's kingdom. As part of the celebrations, the man of God held a special deliverance service on Friday for the thousands of international visitors who graced the occasion. The Saturday and Sunday services were also held and both demonstrated the beauty of depending on and serving the true and living God as the power of the Holy Spirit swept through the congregation to bring spiritual enrichment. The overriding authority of the name, Jesus Christ manifested itself through instant healings and deliverances. The man of God took the opportunity to introduce The New Anointing Water and Faith Bracelets which are yet to be made available to people for a more intimate relationship with God. Earlier on, Wise Man Harry delivered the Word of God with a message titled: THE HEART WE POSSESS. The wise man examined the way different hearts have their individual characteristics. He said, "We have different hearts with different ways of doing things. Hearts are not the same and thus the way they receive or resist the Word of God differs". Adding more detail about the relationship between the heart and mouth, Wise Man Harry said, "Vain and idle talk is a product of a vain and idle heart because out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". His proof text was from Matthew 16:15 regarding the revelation of Peter acknowledging our Lord, Jesus Christ as the Son of God. He said that this was the kind of heart we should aspire to have that which is ever-believing, no matter the condition at hand.
TESTIMONIES The service was replete with amazing testimonies as hundreds of people came forward to share what the Almighty God had done in their lives. Below are a few of them.
FROM WHISKEY TO WATER – AN ADDICT'S TESTIMONY It must have felt funny when Mr Samson Lawrence Khumalo, a Zimbabwean living in Cape Town, South Africa, took his first sip of beer. Little did he know that down in the glass, a demon lurked who would turn his perceived joy into a total nightmare. It all started off in 1999 when he got shot at as a security officer. He realised that he should have come to God then but he went into drinking and mistook the ugly sneer of the devil for a smile. He used to compete with friends to see who could drink the most and still drive home. Sooner, his appetite became so appallingly strong that he soon became an addict. For 15 years, he walked from one joint to another futilely whetting the urge which never went. He would make plans but they would never see the light of the day. It affected him financially and those around him emotionally and socially. As a heavy drinker, he often would get hurt while consuming alcohol. Sometimes, he would discover that he had done something wrong like breaking a window or breaking a relationship. All these cost him dearly that he no longer found joy in anything alcoholic. He desired to quit but he found no magic wand to the problem. He got to the point of considering contacting Alcoholics Anonymous, a world renowned rehabilitation group. One day, he attended a family reunion where he saw his uncle, a well known drunkard, take only soft drinks and water. He was surprised because his uncle was a more notorious drinker than he was. Curious, he implored him to share his secret whereupon he was told about The SCOAN and the Anointing Water. Mr Khumalo began to watch Emmanuel TV. As he watched a mass prayer with his uncle, the uncle ministered the Anointing Water to him and, instantly, he felt a strange sensation run through his body and that marked the end to his agonising relationship with alcoholic substances. A man who could consume an entire bottle of whisky in one sitting, suddenly found alcohol repulsive and disgusting. He said the last beer he bought, several months ago, was still sitting in the fridge, unopened and untouched to the glory of God. Not that he nurses lingering temptations to go back to it but as evidence that when Jesus delivers you, you are delivered indeed!
HIS NAME IS JOSEPH JUNIOR! – A HAPPY DAD AFTER 17 YEARS OF BARRENNESS Mr Joseph Matala and his dear wife found themselves squeezed between a rock and a hard place where only Jesus could save them. His wife had fibroids while he had a low sperm count, rendering the couple unable to have children for 17 years. A national of DR Congo but living in South Africa, Mr Matala and his wife had gone to even the most expensive specialists and Chinese herbalists to get a solution to their infertility but there was no change. It caused him so much trauma especially when one day, his biological mother told him that she would not die in peace because she had not seen his children. No assurance could calm his mother's concerns. This was a bitter memory that lingered in the back of his mind, accompanying his unsavoury condition of barrenness. The repercussions followed him wherever he went. Anytime he was applying for things and had to fill out forms or take interviews, he would be asked questions like, "How old is your first child" which would send him on another downward spiral of depression. Tired of trying, he suggested to his wife that they went for adoption. His wife encouraged him that God was still alive and would give them a child. "When you have a problem and you become tired, it is then that the power of God is close to you," he said. After all those challenges, the couple decided to partner with Emmanuel TV. To their greatest surprise, an Anointing Sticker was sent to them in the post. Unknown to him, this was how his story would begin to change. The Anointing Sticker meant so much to him and his wife that they cut it in two and each kept their own part on their person anywhere they went. They did this so that if either of them lost theirs, they would still have the other one to pray together with! They prayed to God to bless them so that one day, they too would go to the church to testify of how their problem had been solved. His wife then missed her period. He was happy but this had happened many times in their 17 year struggle without the corresponding result so he didn't make too big a deal out of it. They went to do a pregnancy test and just like that, his wife was confirmed to be pregnant. Today, they have a two and half month old baby boy – Joseph Junior. He advised that the power of God in the Anointing Sticker is as powerful as that in the Anointing Water. In their case, they did not start heckling the headquarters that they had not received the Anointing Water, they just prayed with the Anointing Sticker, believing that it was God's answer to the question of the barrenness in their lives.
DIVINE OPERATION RESTORES WOMAN'S SIGHT "I am healed. I can see, thank You, Jesus!" It was a cry of joy as Miss Charlie Alexis Richards from USA – once blind, finally received her full sight. It was a priceless thing to have happened to her considering the opposition she had encountered on her way to The SCOAN. The moment she made up her mind to come to The SCOAN to be prayed for after all medical help at leading hospitals in the USA had failed, people tried to discourage her. They told her she would just waste her money. Right at the airport in America, she discovered that her feet had become swollen. Not only that, her baggage was routed to a wrong destination. Everything appeared to be working against her trip. But her will to seek the face of God was so strong that she could not allow any detractors stop her. Her faith was not without reason. Before coming to The SCOAN, she had a dream. In that dream, she was in the church auditorium. Everything looked the same but there were no chairs. Then, she saw herself in a line of people. The man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua called her to come forward as she was late. She went forward to the front and what looked like a hospital came down upon her. Inside, she saw surgical tools of all kinds all around the walls. Afterwards, a man came to her and said she could see the screens in front of her. She instinctively replied that she could not but the man insisted that she could and when she tried, she found out that her blind eye could now see the objects in front of her. Finally, finding herself at the prayer line of The SCOAN that historical day last Saturday, she witnessed the launch of the New Anointing Water through which she was to be set free. She explained her experience under the power of the Holy Spirit: "As soon as the Anointing Water fell into my eye, I felt like something was moving in my blind eye. I lost control. I could not find a hand to hold and fell to the ground". Unknown to the human eye and those that were in her vicinity, a divine operation was taking place just as she had experienced in her dream. After a few minutes, her eye popped open, darkness disappeared and to her inexpressible joy, she was able to see the man of God clearly for the first time. In the Book of Isaiah, it was foretold that when Jesus Christ would come to save us, the lame would walk, the dead would be raised and the eyes of the blind would see. The age of miracles has not passed; the Miracle Worker is still alive. His name is Jesus Christ.
CALL HIM HONOURABLE – THE STORY OF A FORMER MOTORBIKE RIDER Mr Effiong Edet Effiong, now answering to the title 'honourable', perfectly described his former life as one that had been 'manhandled, ruffled and squeezed not just by poverty but abject poverty' which bread anger, frustration and aggression. He was a motorbike rider, riding a jalopy assembled in a makeshift fashion by various roadside mechanics. He would leave home in the morning and after working all day in the blistering sun, come home with nothing, day after day. Most of the money he gained, he would have to spend on repairing the bad motorbike. Like many making a hard living on the unfriendly streets, he developed the bad habit of smoking. As a rider carrying people from one place to another, he heard so many stories, some of them strange. One of them was about Prophet T.B. Joshua, the man whom people said was performing miracles. Some said negative things about him. He was confused and one day decided to ask his wife if she had heard anything about the prophet. Her answer was an emphatic, "Yes" and that she had actually seen him preach on Emmanuel TV through the black-and-white television in his house. His wife insisted he came to The SCOAN despite any nasty or discouraging stories he might have heard. He resignedly agreed and came to The SCOAN using money borrowed from various friends. So desperate was he that as he was coming, he said to himself, "I will roll on the floor outside the church if necessary just to get seen by the man of God." He knew that he would get solution and was not ready to go back with the same problems. He sat in the canopy and "sang louder, danced faster and prayed harder than anybody else." Such was his belief that this was the end of his life of hardship. Having received the Anointing Water and Stickers, on his way back to his state, he prayed to God, "If You are the One who created the Heavens and earth, please, do not let me continue riding on this bike again". Mighty miracles started happening. His state launched a poverty alleviation project and he was one of the lucky few given a brand new vehicle for business. His joy was so much that he slept for two days in the car before going home. The same man from the state Governor's Office called him for a big contract not long after and he was able through this venture to register a company. He enrolled at school and successfully passed his OND and HND qualifications which were far off dreams for him to achieve in his former position of poverty. One contract after another came his way and he was able to buy a property. He is now a proud home owner and the employer of 14 staff. He stopped his wife from selling fish and bought her a personal car. His influence in the state became prominent and was encouraged by a friend that as God was with him, he should stand for election in his local government. He won the position. A few weeks later, the chairman of his local government gave him the gift of another brand new car. "I came to share this testimony to give others hope that if a motorbike rider could be elevated to the position of an honourable member of the local government, your position would soon change as long as you continue to believe and trust in God!" He testified.
I GAVE BIRTH WITHOUT FALLOPIAN TUBES From a human and scientific view, Mrs Onuche Mariam was not to ever have children. She had barrenness that had humiliated her for five years. This was as a result of an ectopic pregnancy during which led to the removal of her fallopian tubes. This scientifically made it impossible for her to get pregnant. As a lecturer, she loved children but would be troubled to see that she did not have her own. Still, she believed in God that one day she would conceive. Her brother told her not to believe man's opinion but to seek God's. He collected her medical report and took it to The SCOAN for prayers. When he returned home, he gave it back to her and said, "God has changed your report!" Meanwhile, she was introduced to Emmanuel TV and, during the Candlelight Service crossing over from 2013 to 2014, she prayed along with Prophet T.B. Joshua. That night, she had a dream in which the man of God told her she would come for a testimony. The following month, she discovered that she was pregnant. Now, she came to give that testimony and standing with her brother before the congregation, she displayed her six-month pregnancy to the glory of God who had re-written her medical report and made possible what doctors had said could not happen.
INTRUDING NEBULISER MACHINE SACKED He came carrying his nebuliser machine in his bag. Much as it sustained his life during sleep in those hours of difficulty in breathing, he detested the whole idea of having to strap a mask over his face for the rest of his life. Without it, he ran the risk of sleeping and not waking up again. His wife rightly called it the 'intruder' for its inconvenience during intimacy. So, Mr Kwasi Tete Asiedu, a Ghanaian living in the UK, carried the intruder all the way to The SCOAN, praying that Jesus Christ would relieve him of the burden and hand him and his wife a new lease of life. For 12 years, he had suffered sleep apnoea – a potentially fatal sleeping disorder. He would have difficulty taking in oxygen and would snore loudly. In the morning, he would be too tired to carry out his daily activities. In recent months, he was introduced to Emmanuel TV and saw other people receiving healing of similar problems. That put faith in his heart to come to The SCOAN to receive his own touch. He was arranged on the prayer line and was very privileged to be one of the first few people to receive a spray of the New Anointing Water. Under the instruction of Prophet T.B. Joshua, one of the evangelists ministered it to him, in Jesus' name. For the last time, he removed the nebuliser machine's mask from his face. His breathing became completely normal. Since then, he sleeps like a baby without using the machine. "If you are sick, come to Jesus; He is the Healer," he said, now free from wearing a mask to bed.
Princess Felian Assam Czesnat, a Cameroonian residing in Germany, was chatting with her brother on Skype one day when he alerted her to a trace of blood running from her eye. Unsuspecting of anything serious, she went to the mirror and horror stared back at her. Pure blood was running down her eye. She called an ambulance but when they got to the hospital, the doctors did not see anything wrong with her yet she could not see, walk or write. The eye kept bleeding. At a point, the eye started coming out and they had to give her an eye patch to keep the eye firmly in place and from getting contaminated. Then, it was discovered that the problem was from the nerves in her eye. Alerted to her scary predicament, her father bought her a ticket to come to The SCOAN. Her case had deteriorated so much that she couldn't see even the time or date of the flight on the ticket; all she knew was she was travelling to Nigeria from Germany. Arriving at The SCOAN, she listened to a testimony of a lady healed from blindness after receiving a spray of the New Anointing Water. The testifier had told of how during the ministration into her eye, she had felt a warm sensation and something like a worm moving in it. However, when the New Anointing Water was sprayed on Ms Czesnat, she did not feel the same. In fact, only a few drops had landed on her face. She considered this not to be enough. Her sister assured her to believe and put her faith to work. Back at the hotel the following morning, her sister alerted her to the fact that her eyes were no longer bloody as they had been the previous day before the Anointing Water was sprayed on her. "Leave me alone, I am a blind woman," she shouted back. However, on her sister's insistence, she called for a mirror and behold; the eye that was once full of blood and completely blind, was clear and she could see. She confessed her healing and when she was given a book to read, Ms Czesnat did so convincingly. Unlike the first time when she came to The SCOAN led by her sister, she came without any assistance. She walked by herself and faced the camera, smiling.
WE RAN OUT OF ROPE AND GRABBED UNTO FAITH Honourable Ladi Oko from Benue, Nigeria suffered from multiple fractures of the ankle after an accident. She had to use a pair of crutches to be able to move around. She could not carry out her daily activities. Her family members had to help her to the bathroom before she could have her bath. She went to many hospitals and herbalists in search of solution but could not find any. The doctor even said that she would need an operation but the doctor was not sure how the operation would affect her leg. The family decided to bring her to The SCOAN where she was placed in the prayer line and Prophet T.B. Joshua prayed for her in the power of the Holy Spirit. Immediately after the prayer, she felt a sensation in her body and was able to walk freely without the crutches to the glory of God! Now, she can do everything by herself, drive her car, walk around and even run for the glory of God! The family advised viewers to trust in God Almighty.
46 YEARS CRIPPLING PAIN WIPED AWAY AT ONCE Mrs Gabriella Filak, from Hungary in Eastern Europe, suffered excruciating pain with which she woke up with tears every morning. It started when she was born that the doctors said she was unlikely to survive as she only weighed just over a kilo. When she was very young, she fell on a rock with her hip and the pain started from there. She had to use a metal frame to move around. The doctors were able to diagnose that she had tuberculosis in her hip and spine. She went for an operation whereby the doctors intentionally broke her leg to try and reattach the leg properly to the hip but the operation was not a success. Over the years, the situation became worse. She was no longer able to lift up or play with the children where she worked in a nursery school because of her painful condition. She had suffered this for 46 years. It got to a point that the doctors told her that there was nothing more they could do for her. One of her sisters who speaks English told her about the ministry of Prophet T.B. Joshua and encouraged her to come to The SCOAN to receive her healing. She was filled with faith and came in the name of the Lord. When she was at the Prayer Line, Prophet T.B. Joshua touched her three times and told her she was free to walk. She immediately began to walk and even burst into a run as she discovered that all the pain which usually hindered her movement had vanished. She described the experience as if it had been God Himself embracing her. At last, 46 years of crippling pain have been ended by the power in the blood of Jesus Christ. During the service, when the New Anointing Water was ministered to her, she felt like her entire body was being stretched and straightened out as she fell on the floor and vomited. Now, she feels new and refreshed and can walk like a normal person. She explained that previously she felt like her body was twisted and had to drag her left leg behind her as she walked but that was all a thing of the past since the prayer of Prophet T.B. Joshua. It was an amazingly glorious service day which ended with mass prayers where every demonic based problem was exposed by the light of God to the joy of all! Emmanuel – God with us!
