Given their inclusion of the IBM stack into their solutions, Cincom is one of the partners that has been enabled on IBM Puresystems.
Attend a Meet Up and get the lowdown
daryl_pereira 270002AW8D Visits (3237)
This year at Impact we're happy to announce there will be a new way to disseminate and share information: via a meet up. Part presentation, part networking event, the meet up pulls together experts and the inquisitive around a common subject.
As our own Noah Kuttler succinctly puts it in his guidance to organizers:
At Impact we'll have separate meet ups around developer trends, cloud computing, PureSystems and mobile.
All meet ups will take place at the Social Playground in the Solutions Hall.
Come learn about the new developments with PureSystems (and there will be many) and what exactly this new era of computing is all about.
When: April 30, 12:45 - 1:15 pm
Developers are the new Kingmakers
I recently heard that the most popular profession for students right now is to become a software engineer. Come discuss the latest trends (including a focus on mobile).
When: April 30, 3:30 - 4:00 pm
Big on Cloud? Come on over, talk to the experts and network!
When: May 1, 12:45 - 1:15 pm
What's new with Mobile at IBM? Interested in mobile apps? Network with the experts and peers.
When: May 2, 12:45 - 1:15 pm
We look forward to seeing you there at Impact 2012!

Get to Know Fall's Hot Guys!
"I finished high school while filming movies. And then as soon as I was done, I enrolled in my local community college and got 12-15 credits out of the way really quickly. After that, it just got too busy, but if I get a break again, going back definitely interests me—I might be interested in studying psychology."
"Abduction was super-physical for me. I'd never boxed before, so I had to train for a couple of months. The last time I wrestled was when I was six years old, so I had to work on that. And then there was the motorcycle training. I rode a few dirt bikes in New Moon and Eclipse, but in Abduction, it was a legit street racing bike. And I'm not the biggest motorcycle fan—they're cool and a lot of fun, but they're scary as well!"

A number of people asked me to repeat my blog post from last year with my impressions from Finovate, so I thought I would.
For those of you who aren't familiar with Finovate, it's a fast-paced format with seven-minute live demos and pitches from 35 financial technology vendors. It's produced by Online Financial Innovations, the people behind the excellent NetBanker blog.
I was lucky enough to go along to the show in London today. Unlike last year, when four or five themes dominated the day, this year's exhibitors were more diverse. Among them were:

My friend and I are looking to head up to ND from South Carolina to duck hunt sometime this October. I have heard several stories from people who drove up there, scouted birds, and had great hunts. I am just not sure how easy it really would be. It might be that easy, but I would hate to get all the way up there and find it to be much more of hassle than that. I am from Texas and hunting public land in Texas and LA, unless it's the coast, can be a hassle due to the idiots and crowds. I have heard in North Dakota the waterfowl hunting on public/private land is much easier b/c of the amount of land, not as many hunters, and landowners allowing people to hunt on their property. I found a PLOT Map that shows land that is available to hunt. I just saw it last night, so I haven't done too much research on it.
I am looking for any useful information regarding duck hunting this October. We were considering getting guide this year for a 3 day hunt, get a feel for the area, then hunt a few days on our own. But it just seemed too expensive and not necessary. Our current plan is to drive up to Bottineau and hunt in that area. We are going to try to find land to hunt via the plot map and scout it out. I don't want to step on anyone's toes or piss anyone off. All we want to do is have a great hunt, and respect the landowners while doing so. Any information you provide would be great. Not sure if it would be easier or not, but feel free to call me if would be easier than typing out a long email.

Time Warner Center
10 Columbus Circle
This mixed-use skyscraper was designed by David Childs and Mustafa Kemal Abadan of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. It consists of two 229 m (750 ft) towers bridged by a multi-story atrium containing upscale retail shops, studios for CNN and a theatre for Lazz at Lincoln Center. The total floor area of 2.8 million square feet includes offices, residential concominiums and the Mandarin Oriental hotel.
The superblock site was created for and previously occupied by The New York Coliseum, a convention center that was part of Robert Moses' urban renewal project for Lincoln Square. The design by Leon and Lionel Levy in a modified international style included both the exhibition building and a twenty-six-story office tower. It was a notoriously bland structure, although, as was discovered during demolition, very sturdy. It opened on April 28, 1956 but was outmoded just thirty years later with the opening of the Jacob Javits Convention Center. Legal restrictions prevented it from competing with the Javits Center and the exhibition space remained largely unused until demolition in 2000. Although I have walked past the building numerous times during my time living on the Upper West Side, I never saw fit to take a photo of it, perhaps indicating how banal it's appearance actually was.

Hello. I keep around 5 hives. What is the most economical program/method for re-queening these hives on a yearly to bi-yearly basis? Should I even be concerned with regular requeening?2nd yr beekeeper.Thanks
Jim, for some reason I was under the impression you should requeen regularly. It seemed expensive to buy queens that often...I am figuring there has to be a better way, especially if its for your own apiary and not to sell queens.Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
@Jim....great links for the vids...tks
They came in from the wild spring before last. The word is going around that Queens need to be reared as locally as possible. How does my story sound to you?

UPDATE THURSDAY. Still no power but I have a ventless propane heater in the living area and we are warm, have hot water but all freezer/fridge stuff is gone. So lucky that Sandy hit us but destroyed the coast 10 miles away. If you see Seaside Heights or Point Pleasant NJ than you are 10 miles from me. We are so blessed to have a house with no damage and heat now and hot water here,there are thousands who are homeless with there homes either crushed buried under feet and feet of sand or washed out to the Atlantic. We are bless. Hope you other sandy people are at least as well.
I felt a very hot burn in my shoulder blade ………….. it got almost impossible to lift anything, even my arm itself above my chest.

Not all of us can ski a grueling 90km cross-country race. Not all of us can get to the rock concert on the other side of the planet. But now we can all share in the thrill of the race, or the show, wherever we are.
Vasaloppet is one of the most famous ski races in the world, attracting the largest participation of any Nordic ski competition: 90km through rugged Swedish forest terrain, retracing a fabled skiing trek from 1521. This year's was the 12th for Niklas van der Schoot, the culmination of months of training. He was hoping to improve his position from last year.
But a new mobile portal, with payment and connections services enabled by Ericsson IPX and eStore, made the 2010 race a much more interactive affair, and not just for Niklas and other challengers. Competitors, their families and friends were able to make use of services such as breaking news, real-time position updates, video, weather conditions and forecasts.
Because it was built on the Ericsson eStore platform, it could be put together in just a few weeks. The platform can also be used for concerts, music festivals and international sporting competitions.
Sweden's annual Hultsfred Music Festival also trialed eStore last year. Users aged 19-28 said they liked the clean design of the mobile portal, which enabled them to find out who was playing when and where, and would be keen to use similar services in future.
For website operators, eStore removes some of the biggest hassles with going mobile. Once the format for the mobile portal is agreed and built, the platform creates a shadow mobile site that mirrors the fixed site. Updates to the fixed site are automatically reproduced on the mobile one.
And with eStore, mobile sites are much easier for visitors to use. The platform identifies the device accessing the site, and customizes the view to the correct screen size and browser settings. This means a site that gets the most out of a handset, and ensures visitors don't need to zoom in and out and constantly resize windows.
The ultimate effect is a mobile site that updates itself, and enables a richer user experience, generating more network traffic and more satisfied subscribers.
Niklas completed the race in an impressive five hours and 48 minutes, and finished in 1882nd place. While he may not have beaten his time for last year, he, his family and other followers valued the portal.
There were about 15,000 competitors in this year's Vasaloppet. More than 25,000 took part using the mobile portal at m.vasaloppet.se.

Not sure you reasoning for caging each queen in such a manner. But if you have time for such a technique for each queen, why just not move them into nucs or other prepared hives? You need a "colony unit" of some sort for each queen. So why not just make up the units and forego the whole push in cage thing?
if the foundation is wax and not plastic you will be able to cut them out easily-take a look at this maybe you can adapt your strategy- http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5661519733479148923 8-) RDY-B

So I wandered over to Ebay on a break from my final paper for this quarter.
You know, some women impulse-buy clothes.
But I figure, all I have to do is pull all the firing mechanisms off it, build up the buttplate a bit, remove the silly brass thing on the stock, add a scope and redo the barrel. Sounds like fun to me....

Discussion in 'The Trash Can' started by Fandango, Jul 23, 2012.
No further comment!
I'll be the first. I chose other and I had Trixi Schuba in mind. Granted, she was the best at figures,otherwise her skating was not remarkable to put it mildly
She's not admired for her free skating.
I have absolutely nothing against him. But I'm not sure I've ever seen evidence of Urmanov ubers here or elsewhere. No gushing about him. No reminiscing of his programs or anything. He doesn't make anyone's lists of favorite skaters or programs or anything. He is just sort of forgotten.
I gush about him all the time! He had wonderful style and skating skills as well as picture perfect jumps. Love his musicality.
I also defended him all through the survivor threads until he got voted out!
By the way my vote goes to Hughes for being the most undeserving OGM on the list
Wolfgang Schwarz. I think he always had the reputation of being the man who won mainly because Emmerich Danzer made a big mistake in the school figures, and he also has a reputation here as the guy who robbed Tim Wood of that very same OGM. Also, as Vagabond pointed out in the men's OGM Survivor thread, he's a convicted human trafficker.
I think that last part ought to be the first reason he's not beloved.
I saved the best reason for last.
Such a shameless person!
Most unbeloved Olympic champion? Oh, this is going to end well.
I'm gonna go with Sale/Pelletier, Sarah Hughes wasn't my favourite skater, but at least she earned her OGM more fairly than S/P in my eyes...
OMG!!! I wish this was multiple choice!
Ita and it boggles the mind why it's not a poll choice other than "other". On second thought, no its not. Most polls at fsu refuse to admit that skating existed before 1988.
Yeah, this really should be multiple choice. Urmanov is my favorite from the list and I totally don't get what people have against him; he's a much better skater than Stojko and deserved his OGM, IMO.
I'll say other and side with falling_dance against Schwarz as the absolute worst Olympic Champion though.
Ding, ding, ding!!! We have a winner!
Wow, I think even if Tonya Harding had won the gold medal, he'd still come out on top (or on the bottom).
I think Sarah deserved her OGM by the way she skated that night; she just didn't have a skating career to match. The rest of her career was pretty unremarkable for what you would expect and OGM to have.
Interesting topic. I had to think -does it mean actively disliked (then Tara gets my vote) or just a skater hardly anyone got excited over (then Hughes gets my vote as most meh OGM). If it means no one likes them much outside their home turf, then I think Sale & Pelletier may get the nod. (I think they were pretty beloved in Canada.)
I guess few folks agreed with Grishuk-P's win in 94, and Canadians didn't think Urmanov deserved the win, but they, and all the others had their fans.
The one who does not belong on this list at all is Viktor Petrenko. He was a hugely popular skater, even in North America. (Was this poll by chance assembled by someone too young to remember the early 1990s very well?)
I voted Sale and Pelletier. They aren't my favorite, I definitely prefer B/S, but some people speak of them as though they shouldn't have ever qualified for a world championship.
My personal pic is Evan, though. It's true...I don't love him.
My mind went to a very bad place, thinking about Tonya, Schwarz, and tops and bottoms. On second thought, maybe someone should've sic'ed (sp?) Tonya on Schwarz like that as punishment for his crimes...? But I digress.
ETA: oh, and I voted for Sale/Pelletier.
Sale and Pelletier shouldn't even count. Their medal is as earned as the American gymnasts' 2000 bronze medal.
How can S/P and Hughes be nearly tied?! At least S/P are greatly beloved in their own country, while in the US , Hughes is criticized more than any other ogm. Hughes for the win (loser)!
My vote goes for him now, IMO he should have been included on the list over say, Petrenko, whose inclusion on this list makes no sense to me, and for others it seems because he has yet to get a vote.
He was my first favorite male skater!
(btw, Alexei Yagudin idolized Urmanov)
That's why I didn't vote for S/P and have some in my head looking at result
I voted Hughes because of the underrotations. I'd have Evan second because of the 3A.
The question is: Who is the "most unbeloved," and the question is being asked on FSU. The answer is a no-brainer ... "easily S/P," as can be ascertained from all the pairs "survivor" polls on here, not to mention numerous threads debating SLC, and hating on JS. Who's kidding who? I don't think it is about who deserves to be "most unbeloved," but who actually is "most unbeloved" by peeps in these here ramparts.
Urmanov is just another victim of judges' stupidity, shortsightedness, and paralyzed stuck-in-the mud gutlessness. He's a superb skater, IMO better than Plush and Yagudin combined, and obviously loads better than Mishin's current youngster Gachinski. Urmanov never really had the chance to catch on and become popular among fans because he was foolishly and shortsightedly rewarded too soon over Elvis who deserved gold at '94 Olympics.
For me, unbeloved doesn't mean disliked but rather lacking love. I think that there are plenty of people who love Salle and Pelletier and Sarah Hughes even if those skaters also have many "haters". However, I think that Alexei Urmanov gets the least amount of love of the people on the list. Rarely does it seem that he is loved or remembered fondly.
I would have put G&G or Yagudin in there. IMHO I loved them far more than most on that list.
Voted for Sale/Pelletier. I dont know why people hate them so much. They deserved their gold medal. In the current system, S/P would have won by a mile. With all other competitions and controversies aside, they skated perfect at Olympics and had a wonderful program.
My next vote would have been Sarah Hughes. People only hate her because she had a small career and she beat Michelle.
THEY got the GOLD. You got a say in this poll. Which is better?

She took her classes aboard the boat and learned about different cultures by actually experiencing them first hand—in Ghana, Singapore, Taiwan, India, the Amazon River basin and more.

Arsenal are 4/13 with GunnersGaming to beat Montpellier in their vital Champions League clash at Emirates Stadium.
Victory for the Gunners, combined with a Schalke win over Olympiacos, will see Arsène Wenger's side through to the knockout rounds for the 13th season in succession.
Arsenal are currently one point behind Schalke and one ahead of Olympiakos, so any other combination of results will mean they could still face a nervy deciding night in Athens on December 4.
One player who will be certainly be relishing a meeting with his old club is Olivier Giroud, who has scored four times in the last three games.
The Frenchman is priced up at 7/2 with GunnersGaming to score the opener, and 9/10 to net anytime.
Arsenal have also been boosted by the return to fitness of Jack Wilshere and the form of Santi Cazorla, who was outstanding against Spurs.
Wilshere is 22/5 to score anytime, while Cazorla is 9/5 in the same market.
Judging by their display against Spurs there could be plenty of goals on the cards, and a 3-0 Arsenal victory is priced up at a tempting 11/2.
However, given that they have now gone five games without keeping a clean sheet, a saver on 3-1 at 8/1 could be also be worth considering.

text: Each day I learn a little bit more about this costume but new questions always arise. Today I saw 2 different versions of Wookie braids and was wondering which version is correct. The first was 3 braids blond, black, and brown with a braid on each end making 6 separate ends while the second version had 3 braids blond, black and brown but each end was braided together to form 3 separate ends and in turn creating a loop that would have to be fed up the sleeve. I hope this description is clear enough to garnish a response. Which is the correct version. Btw I looked in the gallery but couldn't find a definitive shot to answer my question. Thanks in advance for your help.

Arsenal travel to the Midlands to take on Aston Villa on Saturday and are odds-on shots at 9/13 with GunnersGaming to come away with all three points.
Villa have won have won none of their last 13 Premier League home games against the Gunners (D6, L7) and have also won only two of their last 18 games at Villa Park in the top flight (W2 D7 L9).
Olivier Giroud, who has really impressed of late, looks a worthy 5/1 favourite to open the scoring.
Jack Wilshere, who scored his first goal for two years in the 2-0 win over Montpellier is 17/3 to to make it a quick-fire double and score during the 90 minutes.
Lukas Podolski also scored in that Champions League game, and is 6/1 to score first and 9/5 to net at any time.
The most popular winning scoreline for Arsenal in this fixture since the 2001/2002 season has been 2-1 (three times) and that outcome is a 71/10 shot.
Over 2.5 goals also looks a distinct possibility, and that is a 9/14 chance with GunnersGaming.
*Odds correct at time of writing.

What is bad data? Some people consider it a technical phenomenon, like missing values or malformed records, but bad data includes a lot more. In this handbook, data expert Q. Ethan McCallum has gathered 19 colleagues from every corner of the data arena to reveal how they've recovered from nasty data problems.
From cranky storage to poor representation to misguided policy, there are many paths to bad data. Bottom line? Bad data is data that gets in the way. This book explains effective ways to get around it.
Among the many topics covered, you'll discover how to:
Q Ethan McCallum is a consultant, writer, and technology enthusiast, though perhaps not in that order. His work has appeared online on The O'Reilly Network and Java.net, and also in print publications such as C/C++ Users Journal, Doctor Dobb's Journal, and Linux Magazine. In his professional roles, he helps companies to make smart decisions about data and technology.
View Q. Ethan McCallum's full profile page.
The animal on the cover of Bad Data Handbook is Ross's goose (Chen rossii or Anser rossii), a North American species that gets its name from Bernard R. Ross, a Hudson's Bay Company factor at Fort Resolution in Canada's Northwest Territories. Other names coined for this species are "galoot" and "scabby-nosed wavey," by Northmen. There is debate about whether these geese belong in the "white" geese genus of Chen or the traditional "gray" goose genus of Anser. Their plumage is primarily white with black wing tips, reminiscent of the white-phase Snow Goose, but about 40% smaller in size.No matter their technical genus, these birds breed in northern Canada and the central Arctic (primarily in the Queen Maud Gulf Migratory Bird Sanctuary), wintering far south in the southern United States, central California, and sometimes northern Mexico. In Western Europe, these birds are kept mostly in wildfowl collections, but escaped or feral birds are often encountered with other feral geese (Cananda Goose, Greylag Goose, Barnacle Goose).The cover font is Adobe ITC Garamond. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSansMonoCondensed.

Collection of stories
By Alex
from Bellevue, WA
About Me Developer
Comments about oreilly Bad Data Handbook:
This book is more like a collection of stories. Some of them are exciting, some are a little boring, some will be inapplicable to your field of investigations, some are useful and some are just funny. I was really excited with chater 9 "When Data and Reality Don't Match" - this is a story about stock market data. Or chapter 17 "Data Traceability" is totally practical - how to add extended logging into your ETL processes. I would say, this book is interesting for those, who can read between lines. As I mentioned, you probably find some of these stories with lack of main concept or opposite - to narrow, applicable for the specific case only. I gave 4 stars, but quality of chapters is very different. Few stories are really 5+, but there are some very primitive ones (from my point of view). Nevertheless - I like idea to collect and put them in one place.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best practices for real world data
By ahmetRasit
from Ankara, Turkey
I'm dealing with life science oriented big data for a long time, and I was feeling alone about the variety of problems with the data, until this book. I've realized that most of the problems I'm facing are the real world problems, and they're well-summarized in each chapter. In addition, possible solutions and actions are also well-thought. Almost all of the data-related books I've encountered deals with the so-called ideal data, but this book definitely differs by its focus on real world dirty data. I believe that this book will not loose its importance over time.Some of the chapters might seem unnecessary or less helpful. However, if the book would contain half of the actual content, I'ld still think that it deserves its price.

A good book on real world data
By Erik
from Brussels, BELGIUM
This book covers an interesting subject: the difficulties and trapsthat come with real world data. Overall the book provides someinteresting insights on how to tackle common issues. Case studiesand examples come from various areas from web's data to chemistry.The level of details along the different chapters is not constant.For instance, a couple of chapters go into details and provide code snippetswhile many others only cover the topic in a more superficial fashion.Some chapters encompass the "bad data" topic in the sense they do notrelate to data problems but rather on bad choice of technologies for storageor analysis.
Well worth reading -- twice!

About Me Educator
Bad data is a fact of life. Coping with bad data is a valuable, learned skill. Bad Data Handbook offers insights from over 20 authors based on their years of personal experience managing ill-defined, often chaotic and incomplete data. We begin with a exploration of what is meant by *bad data* and what checks we can preform to help us understand data quality as a prerequisite to data analysis.Kevin Fink offers suggestions on approaching data critically in order to ensure that we understand what we're working with before we begin to try to manipulate it. Fink offers useful scripts in shell and Perl that can be used to inspect data and perform basic sanity checks. Paul Murrell tackles the problem of scraping data from sources formatted for human consumption into a format more amenable for algorithmic analysis using R. And on and on.Each chapter addresses a critical concern in the data life-cycle: identifying, annotating, capturing, archiving, versioning, manipulating, analyzing, and deriving actionable information from imperfect or incomplete data. The advice offered is both powerful and immediately useful to data scientists and newcomers to the field alike and for me has spurred several ideas for how to approach teaching statistics.Given the number of authors who contributed to this volume, it should come as no surprise that the tone, writing styles, and tools used vary greatly among the chapters, sometimes wandering into technical minutia, but only infrequently. The book holds together remarkably well, regardless, and was a pleasure to read.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 8/8/2008 (3245 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
As well, the three pieces of legislation governing kids in care -- the Child and Family Services Act, the Adoption Act and the authorities act -- will be reviewed, updated and likely amalgamated, which is a two or three-year undertaking.
The flurry of activity this fall is part of an overhaul of the embattled child welfare system already underway, but recent reviews of two aboriginal agencies have turned up the heat.
Last month, the province released a review of the murder of Gage Guimond which found Sagkeeng's child welfare agency failed to perform basic safety checks on Gage's various caregivers, one of whom is now charged with his murder.
On Wednesday, the province released a similar review of the Cree Nation Child and Family Caring Agency that highlighted a litany of problems with case management, questionable spending on luxury staff retreats and a lack of monitoring of foster homes.
Both reports suggested that boards appointed by First Nations have offered ineffective oversight, that agencies are rife with nepotism and that basic safety checks on kids in care often don't get done.
The two reviews are the latest in a string of investigations and reviews of the province's aboriginal child welfare system which followed the discovery of the murder of five-year-old Phoenix Sinclair in March 2006. In January, a judge's inquest report lambasted the child welfare system for the suicide of 14-year-old Tracia Owen.
Those reviews made nearly 290 recommendations, which the province is acting on now.
This fall, the four oversight authorities are expected to start work on systematic "quality assurance" reviews of each of the 22 frontline agencies in the province. Each agency will get a thorough inspection of its casework, hiring practices and finances every three to five years to catch the kind of problems that plagued Sagkeeng and Cree Nation before a child dies or public funds meant for child protection are misused.
Already the first quality assurance review on the Anishinaabe CFS agency based in the Interlake has uncovered enough troubling information to warrant a deeper look.
"These kinds of reports will be seen regularly by Manitobans," said Family Services Minister Gord Mackintosh. "You ain't seen nothin' yet."
This fall, social workers will also launch a systemic audit of all the foster homes in the province to ensure each one is licensed and all the proper criminal record and child abuse registry checks have been done on the caregivers. Each of the roughly 7,200 kids in foster care will be seen face-to-face if a routine visit hasn't already been done recently.
The review should be done by Christmas.
The province ordered a similar visit to every child in care in the spring of 2006 after Phoenix Sinclair's death.
The Cree Nation report highlighted the failure to scrutinize foster homes. Of the 265 foster homes and emergency placements on Cree Nation's roster, 155 were unlicensed.
One former Cree Nation worker said the review was little more than a whitewash. It took far too long to suspend and then fire Cree Nation's executive director for misspending and bad management, and the whole issue might have been swept under the rug were it not for Tory leader Hugh McFadyen, who hammered the government on corruption at Cree Nation last spring.
"It was as shallow as they could make it and they didn't want to deal with the chiefs," said the former worker.
Most of the chiefs of the seven bands served by Cree Nation have been conspicuously silent on the issue, except for a couple who called for a full housecleaning at Cree Nation or who are looking at pulling out of the agency altogether.
This fall, the province will also start in earnest on a plan to keep kids out of foster care by intervening earlier in troubled families. And the family services department is looking at rebuilding or overhauling its software system that keeps track of each child's case file. Basic file management has been an ongoing problem for many agencies, including Cree Nation, which has struggled with a serious backlog of filing and case updating.
Already, the software system social workers use includes a new feature that alerts staff when a child has been transferred too often from one foster home to another. That feature was added following the suicide of 14-year-old Tracia Owen in 2005. She was moved between foster homes and group homes at least 64 times before she hung herself in a Winnipeg garage.
Three of the CFS kids who died at the hands of caregivers or parents are still waiting for their day in court.
Phoenix Sinclair
Age: 5
Died: June 2005
Phoenix was in and out of foster care most of her life. In 2005 she was living with her mother, Samantha Kematch, and her mother's then common-law boyfriend, Karl Wesley McKay. Despite recent allegations of child abuse, Phoenix's case file was closed in March 2005. Three months later she died, although her death was not known about for 10 months.
It took her 12-year-old stepbrother to come forward before anyone seemed to realized nobody had seen the little girl in months.
She was allegedly beaten with a broom stick and shot at with a B.B. gun, deprived of food and water and locked in a pen in the days before she died.
Her remains were found by the RCMP in April 2006 near the Fisher River First Nation.
Kematch and McKay have been charged with first-degree murder and are awaiting trial. Both were denied bail are remain in custody. They will appear in court later this month on various motions but their criminal trial is currently scheduled for November.
Phoenix's case was the catalyst for several reviews of kids in care including a mandatory check by social workers of every kid in foster care and a review of files which had been closed in recent months.
Venecia Shanelle Audy
Age: 3
Died: August 14, 2006
Venecia and her siblings had been known to CFS for most of their lives. Venecia and one sibling were living with a relative until a few months before she died. Initially her mother called 911 saying her daughter had fallen down the stairs but it was later determined she died of internal bleeding following a severe blow to the abdomen.
Venecia's mother, Melissa Audy, is out on bail awaiting trial for second-degree murder. She is not to have any contact with her children unless supervised by child and family services workers.
Her stepfather, Jason Allen Kines, is awaiting trial on charges of aggravated sexual assault, sexual interference and failure to provide the necessities of life to a child.
Gage Guimond
Age: 2
Died: July 22, 2007
Gage was placed in foster care shortly after his first birthday after his mother abandoned him and his sister. In the winter of 2007 he was moved from that foster home to live with his grandmother, who told CFS workers she wasn't able to care for him. Gage and his older sister were removed from that home after being discovered in the aftermath of a drinking party covered in head lice. He was eventually placed with his great aunt, Shirley Guimond, who was determined to be low-risk despite a previous conviction for assault. Gage died six weeks after he moved in with his aunt.
Shirley Guimond is out on bail awaiting trial for manslaughter. She has a curfew, must abstain from alcohol and cannot have contact with any child under 14.

Why do you need an air mover? If you've ever dealt with a wet carpet, you know it takes forever to get it completely dry. Whether your carpet is wet due to flooding, a sprinkler system, or some other circumstance, when your carpet is wet, your bathroom hair dryer isn't going to do the trick. Air movers from Sam's Club are multiple speed, high power dryers that are portable, strong, and work fast. And of course, because they come from Sam's Club, they won't ruin your budget.
And while our air movers can do a great job on just about as many wet carpets as you can put in its path, It's not just wet carpets that our air movers take care of either. If you've got water damage on your walls or ceilings, wet paint that you need to dry quickly, or even furniture that has gotten soaked, Sam's Club has the air mover you need to get things dry right now.
So don't worry about water damage or flooding, and don't try to use a weak hand dryer for a job that needs industrial strength. Look over all the great air mover, fan and dryer options that you can find through Sam's Club now, and find the tool you need to do the job right today.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Do you mean it makes a 1-3 upshift? Does it make a 3-4 upshift?
See I wonder if when you swapped all that stuff around, vb, checkballs etc, did something not get put back right.
You started off with a no upshift, maybe it was because of the TV valve sticking, maybe not.
Then you swapped all that stuff around.
Did you ever answer Crosley when he asked about the 87 unit, rebuilt, used?
If the unit was rebuilt, I would asks the person that rebuilt it what he thought.
If the unit was used and the pan was clean when you swapped that stuff around then I would buy the trans go kit and put all of the original stuff back in.
I know I have said this a bunch of times on this forum but.... a no upshift on a 700R4 needs to have a gauge on it. You check the cable then a gauge goes on it.
If you have pressure over 100psi then the TV valve is sticking.
It has Reverse..
I was guessing it was a band issue, I'll probably just drive it the way it is till something gives out and then just give it to a shop as a core if it dies altogether.
with no 2nd and no 4th, does it have reverse? that would be a sign of a bad sunshell..
2nd and 4th do share a band appied by the servo on the passenger side of the case.
if ur planning on doing any of this yourself, 1st get a book., second, make sure u have a trans of proper year, and 3rd take pics or record on video how u take it apart, could be helpfull on re-assembly..
best choice, take it to someone who does it on a daily basis at a trans shop.
at least u get a warranty!
Hey Briscoe--
I was reading a thread you had with user longracing25, his transmission wasnt shifting out of first as mine wasnt, as well as another thread where if I remember right, the tv valve could be a culpret with my transmission skipping 2nd & OD
Up to this point I was thinking that the "stuck valve" was the plunger not moving, i have not even looked that far into the actual valve which explained a lot.
Before I go and take my valve body out again and buy/install a trans go jr as you recommended, in your educated opinion do you think the TV valve could be the reason it's skipping OD? Or is this most likely shot bands?
Yeah my '87 Iroc-z had the trans go shift kit installed in it when I bought the rebuilt tranny and I never had any issues with it shifting bad so I know hands on it does its job
As far as the 700 that's in my truck, for some reason it decided to start shifting into 3rd, but skips 2nd and I havent gotten a chance to see if I still have OD yet. I think this is a band issue from what i've read but idk, my original tranny in my Iroc did this exaxt same thing.
If you know any cure to that problem let me know, otherwise im thinking I'll probably just sell the truck to raise some funding for my '89 355 s10 blazer , I have another k1500 anyway.
85 700r4
The aux vb is that alum thing that is at the rear of the trans, right behind the main vb, the one that has the tube coming from the pump that goes into it. Forward clutch feed.
As Crosley pointed out, swapping vb and other parts can get you into trouble.
I would put the original stuff back on this trans. Along with the correct harness and switch.
As per your trans not upshifting, sticky TV valves are a huge problem for the 7ooR4.
For about $30.00 you can buy the Trans Go jr shift kit, which comes with a TV valve that will not stick.
Easy to install, has good directions as well.
Every 700R4 we build at my shop has this kit installed.
Did you happen to put a new filter in?Dirty filters can cause some strang things to occur.
Thanks for understanding guys.
Annyway, I debated whether to ask or not but what is an aux. v-body?
Update on my truck.. I used it today to move my car trailer, once the trailer was off I decided to take it up the street and throw in a couple powerslides (Minnesota = Snow). As I was going up the street (3/4 throttle) with tires spinning it shifted, however it shifted into 3rd (I was idling at 30mph). I drove it around the block a few times and it would consistently shift but at a very high rpm. The first things that I think of are the governer (which is out of the '90..) or the TV cable mis-adjusted. But with either of those it still wouldn't cause the jump in shifting would it?
Also I had a thought earlier today, I still have all the checkballs and all the original valve body parts that came out of the '87 700r4 that's in the truck, based on what you've said about the various valve body setups used, would I be better off just putting the original valve body and governer back in or is it to late for that? The only reason I didnt do that originally was because the TV valve was very sticky in the '87 where as the '90 valve body wasn't, and again at the time I installed it I thought it was all interchangable so why waste time with the '87 when the '90 was perfectly fine.... whoops.
my post was one of confusion since we had discussed this problem via the PM system before brunsrubber ever posted his first post on HR.
1987 is a cross over year for the valve bodies on the 700 / 4L60 trans. there are early and late designs.
Early design with NO aux v-body.
early design with a aux v-body
Late design with aux v-body.
You must be careful of parts mismatch and check balls used with each design.
Burnsumrubber305, what the heck is the matter with you, was a rhetorical question. Based on the information you had already been given, by Crosley.
I was 17 once as well, so I realize your level of awareness is not that great in this area.
But as dumb as a person can be at that age you still exhibit the signs of a person that can determine when he is getting good info and being bright enough to put that information to good use.
I may be wrong though.
Your not on my bad side, I will be glad to help you with any question you post.
But you must post back correct answers and info when asked as well, you did not do this with Crosley.
You should not be surprised with the content of Crosley's follow up post.
In response to Crosley, all the information you provided was helpful and obviously I read it more then once before posting, so yes it was clear what you were saying, I was mainly seeing if somebody has done a similar swap and if there was any tips or guidelines anyone had. As I also mentioned I'm not experienced with transmissions, you would probably say I shouldn't be touching them then, but I like to be able to at least say I tried. The '87 was rebuilt as I told you, I found out yesterday however that it was rebuilt by the previous owner and after his burb was totalled the vehicle sat for a few months and then was pulled down a road in neutral for 6 miles to his friends where they parted it out. Good to know now... After installing it in the truck and finding it wouldn't shift out of first, I figured both transmissions were junk so why not open it up and see what it looks like so I at least have a visual of what's going on, some people I talked to before I registered on here said swapping the valve bodies was fine, so how would I know otherwise that swapping parts could cause issues. I know much more now then I did even two days ago, so bear with me if that's possible for you more experienced guys on here..
Annnd Briscoe, I know you know your stuff just as crosley does and I would prefer not to be on anyones bad side, as far as what is the matter with me... idk, why don't you tell me, I figured saying I was 17 would make it clear enough that I'm new to it all and I'm gonna end up doing stupid ****, I figured it would be more productive for me to try to understand it before I pulled it rather then remove it and pull it down the road behind my truck like my buddy did and watch it break into pieces.
As I said, try to bear with me here.. I'll get it eventually.
Patience Tony, patience.
And by the way, burnsumrubber305, what the heck is the matter with you.
I am sitting here wondering what part of the information I provided via private messages ( to you) that you did not understand?
You also told me the 1987 trans you installed (and did not work/shift) was a rebuilt unit? Did that change?
As I responded , the earlier 4x4 trans units will bolt in . I also mentioned the wire harness from the 1990 trans must be installed into the replacement trans and also check/swap the pressure switch on the valve body. That pressure switch needs to be on your 1990 vehicle too. Gm used 2 types ; normally open and normally closed.
Swapping v-bodys and parts around is not wise... parts mismatch may have created more problems and caused a good unit to not function.
bolting in another unit of unknown condition may have the same results ------- problems
|There were subtle differences between the 4L60 and the 700, but they are basically the same tranny. Should be no trouble at all if you have it hooked up correctly.

Arsène Wenger is confident Arsenal's Capital One Cup third-round opponents Coventry City will return to the Premier League one day.
The Sky Blues, who were relegated from the top flight in 2001 after 34 consecutive seasons, dropped to League One last season and sacked manager Andy Thorn at the beginning of the week.
But Wenger knows the Midlands club well from their lengthy period at the top and insists a spell in the third tier could work to their favour in the long-term.
"We have not played them for a few years and it reminds me of playing Coventry in the Premier League," he told Arsenal Player. "They have built a new stadium and after they were in trouble.
"Southampton went through that and came back. I always believe that these clubs will never die and because they have the potential, they always come back one day.
"Sometimes it is needed to go through that stage - to go to League One, rebuild and bounce back to the Premier League. I am sure one day they will come back.
"It will be interesting to see them because they did very well in their last game in the League Cup. It is good to play at home."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

CodeAction not firing up after CodeRefactoringProvider
I have just started exploring Roslyn. I have created a sample app to auto close paranthesis, the functionality here is not that important instead, I am stuck up that my CodeAction method is not firing up while debugging.
May be it's late here, I am missing something very basic or there is something else.

Adil Mughal (MCPD, MCT, MVP) - http://AdilMughal.com
Hi Adil,
Does a breakpoint in your CodeRefactoringProvider ever get hit? If so, have you navigated to or selected an open paren? CodeRefactorings are contextual, based on the selection or location of the cursor. If you want the code action to always appear, you should think about making it a CodeIssue instead. Other than that, I don't see anything else wrong off the top of my head. Note that you probably want to check for "!openParen.IsMissing && closeParen.IsMissing" before offering the refactoring - that is, that the open parenthesis actually exists, and the close parenthesis doesn't.
-- Kevin Pilch-Bisson email@example.com
Yes the breakpoint hit CodeRefactoringProvider, and enters to scope of condition when it found open paran in code, but never make it to CodeAction.
Kinda confused as well. Will check again in a while and update. Please do tell me, if i am missing something.
Adil Mughal (MCPD, MCT, MVP) - http://AdilMughal.com
Your code runs fine for me, and I could trigger the GetEdit. It is very picky about when to show the refactoring, though, so maybe you'll want to increase the span a little if that's possible. When it does show up, it works fine if there are an open and close paren next to each other. It then simply removes the newline. However, if the close paren is missing, it throws an exception for me at the following line
var newRoot = tree.Root.ReplaceToken(nextToken, closeParanNode);
This is probably because you are replacing the token of a node with another kind of token (the CloseParenToken kind), and this is not allowed, I think. And maybe the exception doesn't show up for you for some reason, so it seems as if the whole action doesn't fire. Did you set a breakpoint at the start of the GetEdit method in your CodeAction? It should break there if you preview the refactoring.
Also, the GetEdit does not trigger yet when the GetRefactoring triggers. The GetRefactoring only tells if there are refactorings available, and the GetEdit triggers when you want a preview or the result of that refactoring, so in that case your breakpoint won't hit until you preview the refactoring.
Anyway, a solution to the exception would be to find out which types of node have an OpenParenToken and a CloseParenToken. Then find the type of the parent of your openParenToken, check which one it is, and then cast it to that type. Then you can either Update or Repace the CloseParenToken (which will be missing) with your own. I don't know if this is the best way (I'm still a beginner myself), but something like that should work.
Good luck!

Cops in schools: Will that be Newtown's legacy?
Putting police officers in schools means putting guns in schools, but guns held by authority figures we trust to handle them with care. That this was the top answer to Gallup's question was striking for several reasons: 1. It indicates that Americans generally view the problem as one of access to defenseless victims, not access to guns; 2. that Americans are willing to change the public school experience forever by making armed guards a permanent presence; and 3. that Americans are willing to spend the money that such a police presence would require.
We are not convinced that this is the best way to go. But providing some sort of armed protection at every public school - whether a security guard, a police officer or a trained administrator (having teachers armed in the classroom is too great an accident risk) is a response worth discussing.

|what ABOUT lon ghair, anyway--is fine and dandy to keep it--isnt a rule to have to cut hair if ye has a boat--LOL..... tooo much peer pressure makes folks bland and uninteresting......long hair is not difficult to wash--i use sea water and rinse in sea water and let it dry a minuet then rinse with a cup or 2 of fresh water and dry a lil then add some leave in conditioner--- what is so difficult about that??? tie it up whenye feel it is in yer way--is all common sense.
|Still not sure now. Too short and my fine hair looks awful if not clean. Too long and a pain to wash. Thinking just long enough to tie up and if in doubt wear a nice tight fitting hat.
|Interesting thought, though on balance I think really short is easier than really long, (it may, however, be less fun). When we left our wonderful stylist taught me to cut Dan's hair, and him to cut mine - one solution to your 'frequent cuts' dilemma.
|Plus, on more extended cruising, there's the disadvantage of requiring frequent cuts. I'm considering growing out my less-than shoulder length hair so I can keep it out of my face & not need to get it cut so often.
|I also have long hair and have spent many a day on boats. Not necessarily sail boats but i feel your pain. I am notorious for tying my hair up as tight as possible so that it is highly unlikely to come undone. And then once or twice a day i take it down, brush it out, and put it right back up. You'll be absolutely disgusted with yourself at first. But its better then going crewcut. Done that too. Then just wash it when you can...
Thanx multi! I love the smell of Kemi Oil but at about a dollar an ounce I haven't bought any recently; think I'll try leaving a bit in next time. (Going to experiment over the winter here where we're dockside.) Will also check out your link. Yeah, what I need, another web forum to spend time in ...
And laughing at your comment about being a brunette, you can see my hair color in my pic. Everything affects it; if I spend too long in a swimming pool, the chlorine turns it Crayola-crayon green.
Hi Eryka
Your application of oil will vary, so I'd just say try a little at a time and see what works for you.
I don't find that a light application (to the ends when wet) attracts dirt per se, but if I'm doing the slather thing, it'll be, well, oily.
But then again, I'm applying a heavy coat (slathering) for protection and in that case certainly braiding it up so who cares? If anything a thick application of oil will slick back the short hairs and keep that stuff out of my face. If I'm racing I will grease my head ;-) and braid it back tight.
I don't find that it takes more soap to get out, not the food oils, anyway. I love shampoo bars, and I get mine from Chagrin Valley. Not cheap but easily transportable, go a long way, I like them for boat purposes especially
BTW olive oil is also highly recommended although I'm not that all about the scent. You can, though, add a few drops of essential oil to your hair oil and get a more pleasant scent.
I can't imagine that oil would colour your hair in any way, but I'm a brunette and I expect I wouldn't know if it did.
I don't know if y'all are familiar with the Long Hair fora, but they're a wealth of info on care and also on ***hair toys!!!***
The Long Hair Community Discussion Boards - Powered by vBulletin
I think that was all your questions, yes?
I've never tried oil, maybe I don't understand? I would think it would attract dirt??? How do you do this, just the hair especially toward the ends, and not the scalp? How does it extend the time between washing? Normally I'm good for about 4 days between washing unless its particularly sweaty weather. Does it take even more soap than normal to get out? Does it make your hair yellowish? (Sorry, I'm a mass of questions here!)
And yes, I shed too, we're constantly finding long, pale hairs on our boat. Unless I've had it braided - then I don't shed until the day I take the braids out, at which time I get the entire 2 weeks worth of shedding in one huge inundation.
Hello all
I've not spent any extended time offshore (week or two at a time) but my boat is rather... well... lean on accommodation. All I have is a solar shower.
My wash technique is to focus on the scalp and not wash the ends too much. I like shampoo bars which are easily portable and also are good for this technique of, shall we say, 'focused washing?'
I also use oils. And I'm rather particular about them. I have found that mineral oils will cause my hair to break, as also do things like Skin so Soft (which has mineral oil), other bug sprays and spray-on sunscreens.
I rather like almond oil and coconut oil. Almond doesn't firm up when the temps drop so it's a bit handier. And for cost's sake I buy food-grade oils which can be found relatively inexpensively in Asian markets in the US. Packaged-for-hair oils, I find, tend to be mixed with mineral oils and are far more expensive.
As for technique: if I'm going to wear it down I just take a tiny bit (fingernail's worth) and apply to the ends. Usually when under sail I'll slather my hair and braid it up. When we charter I find someone who's doing braiding and get 'rows done. Then I can dive to my heart's content and all I have to do is rinse and oil.
I am so glad to hear that other people have hairy boats... I was beginning to think I was having some sort of alopecia, I think it's called
