The painted rocks craze is thriving in Henrico, as a walk around the grounds of local libraries and parks will demonstrate. This rock was spotted near Libbie Mill Library, and there's a slideshow of many more uniquely-painted stones on the RVA Rocks Facebook page (https://facebook.com/groups/RVARocks/).
Painting and hiding rocks is a family activity appropriate for all ages, and parents especially like the way it fosters creativity and gets kids outdoors. > Read more.

Detailed DescriptionAs a transitional measure, the csevPreProcess, csevProcess, csevPostProcess and csevFinalProcess events are actually sub-events dispatched by a csevFrame handler.
Each of the TypedFrameEventDispatcher child classes receives the csevFrame event in order and dispatches its name event. Event handlers should either subscribe to these events or subscribe to csevFrame. They may wish to use these event handlers as "milestones" relative to which they define their own order (e.g., "I can process the Frame event at any time between the handling of the Process event and the handling of the FinalProcess event").

Member Function Documentation
|virtual CS_EVENTHANDLER_DEFAULT_INSTANCE_CONSTRAINTS bool csEventQueue::iTypedFrameEventDispatcher::HandleEvent
|iEvent &
[inline, virtual]
This is the basic event handling function.
To receive events, a component must implement iEventHandler and register with an event queue using iEventQueue::RegisterListener() and iEventQueue::Subscribe(). The event handler should return true if the event was handled. Returning true prevents the event from being passed along to other event handlers (unless the event's Broadcast flag has been set, in which case it is sent to all subscribers regardless of the return value). If the event was not handled, then false should be returned, in which case other event handlers are given a shot at the event. Do not return true unless you really handled the event and want event dispatch to stop at your handler.
Implements iEventHandler.

The Best of 2011
We are Americans.
We are dreamers. We take chances, we fight, we go against the grain. We give. We lead. We are willing to fail and willing to dare to succeed. We laugh and drink and eat too much and believe in the promise of a good life for every person. We are survivors and strivers, reinventors and reimaginers. We don't agree on everything, but we are bound by a shared ethos that supersedes ideology and class and party. We are patriots, all of us.
The twenty people here did something, or many things, in 2011 that displayed our best qualities as a people. They are the Esquire Americans of the Year.
Astronauts understand: Something always goes wrong. On the day his wife was shot, during the torturous flight that Kelly, his mother, and his daughters from a previous marriage made from Houston to Tucson, there were twenty minutes when he thought he had lost his wife for good.

Hale, Benjamin. The Evolution of Bruno Littlemore
Hale's debut novel is narrated by Bruno, who is not your average chimpanzee. He was identified early in life as behaving as human-like as many children and as a result was pulled into a University of Chicago study. What truly sets Bruno apart, though, is his ability to learn how to learn and as a result he gains the ability to speak as a human. In the beginning, only Lydia Littlemore, newly minted primatologist, could understand his attempts. Lydia, far from the troubled home in which she grew up finds herself way too attached to Bruno and he to her and in this love affair they find their downfall.
Bruno's voice is clear and as he educates himself, his reasoning becomes more sophisticated until it's difficult to remember at times that he is still biologically a chimpanzee. Bruno does not merely achieve, but rather he exceeds. He doesn't just read Shakespeare, he wants to act and direct it. The line between what Bruno is and what he wants to be is ever in motion, and each time he believes he has found the difference between man and animal, he steps over the line and must entirely rethink the matter. If the premise grabs you, you'll find an absorbing and entertaining read containing plenty of food for thought.

Enter the desperate, smoky atmosphere of a Chinese casino, where frumpy players bet an average of five times more than the typical Vegas gambler. Sit down next to grandmothers who smoke like chimneys while playing baccarat—the local game of choice—with visiting high rollers. Then step out of the climate-controlled chill and into tropical air that embraces you like a warm, balmy hug. Welcome to Macau.
The many contrasts in this tiny enclave of 559,000 people serve as reminders of how very different cultures have embraced one another's traditions for hundreds of years. Though Macau's population is 95% ethnic Chinese, there are still vibrant pockets of Portuguese and Filipino expats. And some of the thousands of Eurasians—who consider themselves neither Portuguese nor Chinese, but something in between—can trace the intermarriage of their ancestors back a century or two.
Macau's old town, while dominated by the buildings, squares, and cobblestone alleyways of colonial Portugal, is tinged with eastern influences as well, as in the Buddhist temple at the junction of the Travessa de Dom Quixote and Travessa de Sancho Panca. In Macau you can spend an afternoon strolling the black sands of Hác-Sá Beach before feasting on a dinner of bacalhau com natas (dried codfish with a cream sauce), grilled African chicken (spicy chicken in a coconut-peanut broth—a classic Macanese dish), Chinese lobster with scallions, or fiery prawns infused with Indian and Malaysian flavors. Wash everything down with vinho verde, the crisp young wine from northern Portugal, and top it all off with a traditional Portuguese pastel de nata (egg-custard tart) and dark, thick espresso.

I love this shampoo! This is my first time using Shikai products. It keeps my color longer and very gentle. I'm glad I bought two of them.

I've been using this shampoo since 2013. It provides very gentle care for my hair and I haven't had any problems with it. If you use natural oil masks for your hair like I sometimes do (or some heavier products), maybe you'll need to use a little more of the shampoo or shampoo twice, but otherwise it cleans hair nicely.
Color enhancer

Maintains and enhances the color in my hair much longer than other shampoos.
Great for fine hair
Posted by Reviewer2002071 on May 03, 2010 | Verified Purchase
Works great with highlights. I used it a few days before having my hair processed...and even the very next day. I've been using it ever since for a couple of weeks now and I am very happy with the results. Pairs nicely with the Intensive Repair Conditioner for colored hair.

Great lather, which it hard to find in a natural shampoo.
love the smell
Posted by Reviewer1132826 on Feb 10, 2010 | Verified Purchase
I have only been using this shampoo for about 2 weeks, but it has been working great so far. I love the smell, it reminds me of being in a beauty salon. It suds up very nicely.

This is one of 3 Shikai products I have purchased and I am very happy with it. I would recommend it with the Shikai's Natural Everyday Conditioner for color treated hair as well. Even without conditioner it doesn't leave my thick curly hair flat. Very nice.
Great Product

Helps my color last longer.
Works well
Posted by Reviewer1963608 on Jul 23, 2012 | Verified Purchase
This works well. The Skikai leave in spray on conditioner is the only conditioner I have EVER liked. Used together, my hair doesn't suffer so much from swimming in chlorinated water.
Very good value
Posted by Reviewer2472461 on Oct 02, 2009 | Verified Purchase
This shampoo feels like a build-up removing shampoo - hair is squeaky clean after using it, so must use conditioner afterwards. I haven't been using it long enough to see if it truly helps with maintaining color, but overall I like it - good value.

hello :-) first time here and ttc at 44!
I am Mouschka and hoping there are other women here in the same boat. My husband and I are trying to conceive our first child at the ripe old age of 44. I am currently eating a paleo diet, using chiropractic, acupuncture and chinese medicine as well as consulting our mainstream fertility doctor. I am fed up with all the negativity being thrown at me about my chances, I am healthy, don't smoke or drink, I still ovulate, my husbands sperm is fine so I figure we might as well give it a go!
So anyway, hello and I hope to soak up all the helpful advice on this forum!
I'd love to hear from women who got pregnant at an older age and any hints or tips they could share.

There are plenty of ladies who conceive much older so "keep trying". Try to reduce any stress or anxiety about it as that seems to make a huge difference. An NLP practitioner can really help with that.

Welcome to the forum. I gave birth to my first child at 40, having achieved my first baby through surrogacy. Like you I still ovulate and my infertility relates to the ability to carry a baby rather than achieve great embryos. I read an article recently on the rising age of mother's in Australia, which for the life of me I now can't locate. However the quote below is from an article in The Age in 2011. You are definitively not alone!
The demographics of women giving birth in Australia have changed dramatically in the past 50 years. The total number of babies a woman has in her lifetime has declined from a peak of 3.5 in 1961 to 1.9 in 2009. There has also been a tendency for women to have their babies at older ages. The median age of women giving birth in Australia reached a low of 25.4 in 1971 and rose to a peak of 30.8 in 2006. The proportion of older women giving birth has also risen, with mothers aged over 35 rising from 11 per cent in 1991 to 23 per cent in 2008.
Best wishes on your journey towards motherhood!

Oprah Winfrey on Lance Armstrong: He Came Clean
It's a sad day in the sports world as Lance Armstrong officially admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs to win his numerous cycling championships.
The 41-year-old cancer survivor opened up about the incidents during a candid interview with Oprah Winfrey, which will air on her OWN network on Thursday (January 17).
Miss Winfrey announced the new on "CBS This Morning" today (January 15) and said that it was "the biggest interview I've ever done," adding, "I would say he didn't come clean in the manner I expected."
Oprah did mention that she "was satisfied" and "riveted by some of his answers," and that Lance was "truthful, serious [and] certainly had prepared himself for this moment."
Rumors started swirling that the former Tour de France champion came clean when the talk show host tweeted, "Just wrapped with @lancearmstrong More than 2 1/2 hours. He came READY!" after the interview on Monday (January 14).
The interview reportedly came directly after Armstrong gave an apology to the staff at his former company, Livestrong.
On top of all this information, Lance is also in talks to return a fraction of his earnings and name others who used performance-enhancing drugs.

Former News 2 Anchor to have double mastectomy
From the AP, via WCBD-TV.
ABC News correspondent and former WCBD News 2 anchor Amy Robach says she has breast cancer, a month after she was given a mammogram on the air for a "Good Morning America" story.
She was asked by producers to have the mammogram for a story because she was 40, an age where women are encouraged to be more vigilant checking for breast cancer. She said a doctor told her the mammogram saved her life.
Robach was a frequent fill-in on ABC's morning show while Robin Roberts was fighting a serious blood and bone marrow disease.
She said Monday she'll have both breasts surgically removed Thursday.
Robach worked at News 2 in the late 1990's as an anchor and reporter. She left the Lowcountry to work in Washington DC before taking a job at The Today show in New York.

We do not support BT4 nor adding users. BT=root
There used to be a forum post on how to do this in BT4 here:
When I access the page now it says I don't have permissions to view it. In any case, the instructions were for KDE and I'm using the Gnome flavour of BT5. Does anyone know how to make the desktop for all users look like it does for root? Currently with new users created via adduser it is a generic/basic version of gnome and not BT customized.
I've already tried copying /root/.gnome2 and /root/.config/ to /home/<user>/ and modifying ownership, but that didn't seem to do the trick.
We do not support BT4 nor adding users. BT=root

The Wide World of Typewriter Art, and Other NewsBy Dan Piepenbring
- The Glasgow School of Art's library, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, caught fire over the weekend, but the art school is confident that most of its holdings are intact.
- A new anthology of typewriter art explores "the development of the typewriter as a medium for creating work far beyond anything envisioned by the machine's makers."
- Remembering the Boston Molasses Flood of 1919: "Just after noon on January 15, 1919, a hail of gunshots rang out in the North End. The thunderous cascade of collapsing metal caused the ground to rumble and shake. Residents barely had time to register the sounds before an astonishing sight greeted them: a two-story wave of molasses barreling down the streets at thirty-five miles an hour."
- The nineteenth and twentieth centuries saw a number of utopian preconceptions of what would become the Internet. Among them was Paul Otlet's plan for "electric telescopes," which he hatched in 1934; the telescopes "would allow anyone in the world to access to a vast library of books, articles, photographs, audio recordings, and films … Otlet also wrote about wireless networks, speech recognition, and social network-like features that would allow individuals to 'participate, applaud, give ovations, sing in the chorus.'"
- The many lives of Aubrey Lee Price, "the Bernie Madoff of the South."

Him [ A Werewolf Tale ] *Completed*
- by Authentic_Liz

- Published: 18 Jul 2016
- Updated: 14 Jun 2017
- Status: Complete
When I was 13 years old, my entire family committed suicide, by driving full speed off a thirty foot bridge. Morbid, I know. Unfortunately, they deemed themselves unfit to live and ended it the only way they knew how. They had gotten themselves stuck in something deep and dark with a couple of the demons around our neighborhood and their contract was coming due. So at the age of only 13, I was left to fend myself and survive in a world full of vampires, werewolves, and demons. ~ My name is Claire Summers and my family had once ran one of the most powerful werewolf packs in North America. That is, however, only because of a contract held by a certain grey eyed demon. Since my parents died, I have been shunned. Disowned by everyone and unwanted in every sense.

Hydrops fetalis is a serious condition. It occurs when abnormal amounts of fluid buildup in two or more body areas of a fetus or newborn. It is a symptom of underlying problems.
There are two types of hydrops fetalis -- immune and nonimmune. The type depends on the cause of the abnormal fluid.
The number of babies who develop immune hydrops fetalis has dropped due to a medicine called RhoGAM. This drug is used to treat pregnant mothers at risk for Rh incompatibility.
Symptoms depend on the severity of the condition. Mild forms may cause:
More severe forms may cause:
An ultrasound done during pregnancy may show:
An amniocentesis and frequent ultrasounds will be done to determine the severity of the condition.
Treatment depends on the cause. During pregnancy, treatment may include:
Treatment for a newborn may include:
Hydrops fetalis often results in death of the infant shortly before or after delivery. The risk is highest for babies born very early or who are ill at birth.
Brain damage called kernicterus may occur.
Rh incompatibility can be prevented if the mother takes a medicine called RhoGAM during and after pregnancy.

San Francisco's dense traffic, poorly timed traffic lights, and hills cause just about any car's fuel economy to plummet like a 1930s Wall Street stockbroker. Even the vaunted diesel efficiency of the 2014 Audi Q5 TDI suffered, the trip computer showing an average as low as 15 mpg while I drove it around town.
However, that same average leaped to over 34 mpg as I cruised down the freeway, my first hint that the Q5 TDI would offer a host of seeming contradictions.
The Q5, Audi's small crossover, hit the streets in 2009, and besides some engine and electronics updating, remains basically a first-generation vehicle. At a little over 15 feet long, it's a good fit for an urban environment, and didn't feel unwieldy as I maneuvered through heavy traffic. It fits five passengers with 29.1 cubic feet left over for cargo.
At the same time, this SUV-classified vehicle comes with Audi's Quattro all-wheel-drive system and a descent control mode. None of those systems means that it can climb out of canyons, but they will help it negotiate snowy, icy, or muddy roads. And for real utility, Audi rates its towing capacity at 4,400 pounds. The massive amount of torque from its diesel engine might be able to pull a bit more, but the monocoque architecture probably won't handle it.
As another contradiction, the outside of the Q5 looks a bit lumpish, yet the inside offers elegance and simplicity.
While not exactly ugly, the Q5 body is designed for its interior capacity. The roofline and general shape echoes that of the Ford Edge and Toyota Venza, two other crossover vehicles introduced around the same time. Adorning the porky body are signature Audi style cues, such as a large, framed grille crossing over the bumper line, and headlights bordered with a nice LED strip.
On the other hand, the cabin is graced by satin-finished wood trim, a detail I particularly like because you can actually feel the grain. For vents, the LCD, and other dashboard features, Audi uses a thin border, similar to the look of the grille. Buttons on the steering wheel spokes are kept to a minimum, although I found that to hamper access to some infotainment functions.
Lush navigation
The Q5 sports Audi's connected cabin tech, the most notable feature being the integration of Google Earth imagery with the navigation system. Relying on a data connection from T-Mobile, for which owners will have to pay a monthly fee, the car's 6.5-inch LCD shows stunning satellite photography of the immediate environs, with graphics overlaid to highlight roads. The result looks very cool, and should help drivers figure out upcoming junctions and find landmarks.
When the car was in an area without a data connection, the imagery devolved into a photographic blur. I could manually change the map to show its standard graphics, but it would have been nicer if the car automatically reverted to its stored maps when the data connection was lost. In some cities, such as San Francisco, those stored maps are as impressive as the satellite imagery, as they show extensive 3D renderings of buildings and landmarks.
Under route guidance, the Q5's navigation system offers useful turn graphics on the main LCD, complete with lane guidance, while arrows and street names on the instrument cluster LCD also help the driver. To top it off, voice prompts also called out street names. I wasn't likely to get lost in the Q5.
The electronics felt as responsive as any smartphone, reacting near instantly to inputs from the console-mounted controls. Audi uses a central dial with buttons around the perimeter for quick access to functions and menus. The system takes a little getting used to, but quickly becomes familiar. Voice command is advanced enough that I could say the address I wanted as a single stream, rather than having to speak each component as a separate input.
Audio in amber
Another portion of the interface, highlighted in amber, accesses all the car's audio functions. For stored media, the car offers room on its own hard drive for music, and even has a built-in Wi-Fi network you can use for streaming music from devices. However, I couldn't get my iPhone to play music over Wi-Fi, as the Q5 doesn't seem to be AirPlay compatible. For my phone, I relied on Bluetooth streaming, an adjunct function to the Bluetooth hands-free phone system.
Just to prove I could, I plugged an Apple 30-pin-to-Lightning adapter into the proprietary connecter cable in the glove compartment, then plugged my phone into that. Although inconveniently placed, it worked, at least for a little while. The sound quality suffered from the Apple adapter, which has its own tiny digital-analog converter, and it would occasionally stop playback entirely.
This Q5 was equipped with the base audio system, but I still came away impressed thanks to the soundscape created by 10 speakers around the cabin. The amp, rated at only 180 watts, lacked the punch for truly impressive playback, but the overall clarity was enjoyable. Audi offers an upgrade to a Bang & Olufsen system, adding four speakers and packing a 505-watt amp. The audio enjoyment from that option would make it worth the money.
Despite the data pipe built into the car, here's another odd contradiction with the Q5: it runs short on name-brand apps built into the dashboard. The navigation system integrates Google Earth and local search, and there are data services giving nearby fuel prices and even parking garage availability. The coolest feature shows Wikipedia-sourced articles for nearby landmarks. But you won't find Yelp, Pandora, TuneIn, Facebook, Twitter, or any of the other popular apps found in many other cars.
Diesel pros
The Volkswagen Group, of which Audi is a part, has been one of the main proponents of diesel engines in the US, and the Q5 TDI demonstrates the benefits and oddities of these types of engines.
According to Audi's spec sheet, the turbocharged 3-liter V-6 engine in the Q5 TDI produces a massive 428 pound-feet of torque. That compares with the 295 pound-feet of the gasoline V-6 available in the Q5 model. However, the Q5 TDI's horsepower is only 240, compared with 272 from the gasoline engine.

An annual art and poetry contest was created in 2003 to inspire children and youth to communicate their experiences with the California Court System. The contest, sponsored by, the Judicial and Court Operations Services Division, Center for Families, Children & the Courts (CFCC) was later named in honor of Barbara George, in recognition of her longstanding support of the project. The Barbara George Art and Poetry Contest generated a library of images that serve as lasting reminders of the courts' commitment to children and youth.
The Barbara George Art and Poetry Contest has generated a library of images and text that serve as lasting reminders of the courts' commitment to children and youth. We hope that more children and youth will add their artistic expressions.
The inaugural theme for the Barbara George Art & Writing Project, "My Dream for the Future," recognizes 1963 as a significant point in U.S. history that forever changed the legal and social landscape of our nation. The 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington and the 150th Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation are events being nationally commemorated.
Our goal is to reach a variety of children and youth who have experience in the court system. This exciting art collaborative will be an ongoing effort and select submissions will be displayed at various CFCC sponsored trainings and events throughout the year as well as on the California Courts website. Selection of art and written entries for display will be based on originality/creativity, presentation, and representation of the theme.
We hope that you will post the flyer and encourage participation in the contest. Please feel free to photocopy the flyer and distribute it to any person or groups who may be interested in participating.
Theme: "MY DREAM FOR THE FUTURE"
(Children and youth are encouraged to participate)
Thank you for your submission. Please check back for future submission information.
Potential participants along with their teacher, parent, or guardian are encouraged to review the resources linked below for a detailed look into the noted events of 1963.

Conroy takes perfecto into seventh08/11/2013 2:34 AM ET
By Josh Jackson / MiLB.com
Patrick Conroy was pitching for the road team Saturday night, but something in the air had him feeling right at home.
The Royals prospect took a perfect game into the seventh inning before settling for his third straight win as Rookie-level Idaho Falls coasted to a 12-3 victory at Grand Junction.
Conroy ended up allowing three runs on three hits and struck out eight over six-plus frames, improving to 5-0 with a Pioneer League-leading 2.52 ERA. The weather gets an assist for his performance against the first-half South Division champions.
"I'm from Northern California, where it's overcast and cold and kind of windy," he said. "That's how it was here today, and my pitches felt great coming out of my hand in the bullpen."
That good feeling carried over into his first outing against the Rockies, even though the Chukars had played three series against them.
"I was able to watch these guys in, I think, probably nine games before I got to face them," Conroy said. "It was finally go-time, so I knew what I needed to do against them. Luckily, I kept the ball down, and [catcher] Zane Evans did a great job calling the game. The run support definitely helps, too."
Idaho Falls scored six times in the second inning and added three runs in the third. The lead took pressure off the 2012 32nd-round pick.
"Absolutely. It changes how you pitch guys," he said. "When we went up early, I was able to relax a little bit more."
Once Conroy had retired the first 12 or 15 hitters in order, his teammates went into no-hitter mode.
"I was letting one guy use my jacket between innings and I noticed he stopped asking for it after little while," the Marin Community College product said. "I would walk in [to the dugout] and get high-fives, but then I looked around and there was five feet of space between me and anybody else."
Conroy knew what was happening, but he was trying not to let it be a big deal, he said.
"It was important for me to stay focused and bear down."
Rockies leadoff man Dom Nunez ended the perfect game, lining a single into right field to start the seventh.
"It was the top of the order coming around again. It got to a 2-2 count and he was fighting off some tough pitches," Conroy said. "I knew I wanted to go to my curveball -- I throw two: a spoke-knuckle curve and a conventional one. The conventional one showed up today after being off-and-on the last couple starts, so I decided to throw that. It wasn't the best location. It ended up knee-high and sort of on the middle of the plate, and he put a good swing on it."
The 21-year-old left-hander walked the next hitter and allowed back-to-back singles to Correlle Prime and Rockies No. 19 prospect Ryan McMahon. With two runs across, Conroy handed the ball to Jon Fitzsimmons, who gave up a sacrifice fly to Miguel Dilone.
"I think going into the stretch messed with me a little bit," Conroy said. "Looking back, I should have pitched more out of the stretch, just to be ready for when that point came in the game."
Royals No. 13 prospect Elier Hernandez tripled, singled twice and drove in three runs for the Chukars. Hunter Dozier, ranked six spots ahead of Hernandez, doubled and singled, while Daniel Rockett had four RBIs and Frank Schwindel collected four hits.

Zac Brown Band's collaboration with Dave Grohl out in December
Listen to Zac Brown Band on iHeartRadio
The Zac Brown Band's collaboration with Dave Grohl will be out just in time for Christmas.
The country stars announced Tuesday that their new album The Grohl Sessions Vol. 1 is scheduled to hit iTunes on December 10th.
The Foo Fighters leader produced and played drums on the studio effort, which features the new song "Day for the Dead." The Zac Brown Band originally debuted the track with Grohl live at the Country Music Association Awards earlier this month.
The band called Grohl a "musical genius," and said it was amazing to play with him onstage and in the studio. Likewise, Grohl told "Rolling Stone" the guys are "unbelievable." He joked that he's still not sure what genre to put them in, but he says their music is great no matter what you call it.
