|Re: Getting encodings to match (solved)
|Thu, 15 Jan 2004 19:04:10 GMT
Solved my own problem... It seems that the jvm was asigning the local default encoding to any file it opened (in the entity resolver), and by specifying the desired encoding in the InputStreamReader the problem goes away. in otherwords I changed: InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( SimulationPanel.class.getResourceAsStream(sys)); to InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( SimulationPanel.class.getResourceAsStream(sys),"UTF8"); -Gus Gus Heck wrote: > I have a program to which I added a "save as template" feature.

Boil water notice in Cork affects 10,000 people
A boil water notice has been imposed on the Whitegate Regional Water Supply Scheme in Cork, affecting around 10,000 people.
Customers in these areas are advised to boil all water for drinking, food preparation, brushing of teeth and making of ice until further notice.
Water can be used as normal personal hygiene, bathing and flushing of toilets.
The notice has been issued on the advice of the HSE due to high turbidity in the Dower spring source serving the affected area of east Cork.
This public water supply serves a population of around 10,000.
Irish Water said the boil water notice "has been imposed as a precautionary measure pending further investigation in the interest of public health".
The utility said it will liaise with Cork Co Council and the Health Service Executive with a view to lifting the notice as soon as practicable.

American Eskimo dogs are beautiful, high-energy companions popular among pet lovers. Known for their fluffy white coats, these dogs exude beauty and elegance. But just as with most any white dog, unsightly tear stains can wreak havoc on their cute faces. While most stains are results of underlying problems, there are a few things you can do to remove them.
Things You'll Need
- Small toothbrush
- Tear-stain remover
- Boric acid
- Baby powder
- Milk of Magnesia
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Corn starch
- Eyebright
- Chamomille
- Calendula
- Goldenseal
Apply a tear-stain remover to your dog's tear stains. Such products as Angels' Eyes are available at pet stores. You can apply most tear-stain removers directly to the pet, while with others you may need to use a cloth. Read the directions to find what works best with that specific product. It may be easier to apply the cleanser while coming from behind the dog. If you try to apply the remover facing the dog, he may become scared.
Create a homemade remedy to remove tear stains from your American Eskimo. Mix equal parts boric acid and baby powder, then combining this mixture with Milk of Magnesia until it makes a paste. Apply the remover to the tear stains with a small toothbrush and allow it to dry, then brush it off.
Make a paste by combining corn starch and hydrogen peroxide. Using a small toothbrush, apply this mixture to the tear stains. Leave it on overnight, then remove with warm water or peroxide. You can either pour the liquid on the stain remover or use a cloth that is saturated with it. If you notice after applying the mixture that the area is becoming red and irritated or the dog becomes upset, remove the mixture immediately.
Wash the tear stains with eyebright, chamomile, calendula or goldenseal. Boil these herbs in water for a few minutes, then strain and allow the water to cool. Carefully pour the cleanser on the tear stains or dab them with a cloth that is soaked with the liquid, then rinse with water. All of these herbs can help in the removal of the stains and most have agents that are effective against bacteria and fungi.
Tips & Warnings
- Consult with your veterinarian as to what may be causing the tear stains. There are many problems that can cause the staining, including eye inflammation and infection, excess hair around the eye, blocked tear ducts and abnormal eyelids. Unless the problems are resolved, the eyes will continue to drain and leave tear stains.
- Keep the areas around your American Eskimo's eyes clean by wiping them with water or a gentle cleanser every day. This can reduce the amount of bacteria that enters the eye and limit tearing. In addition, it is beneficial to the eyes to keep the hair around them short. If hair touches the eye, it can cause excess tearing.
- Bacteria and fungal infections cause tear staining. Therefore, it is important for your American Eskimo to maintain a healthy immune system. Feed your dog a healthy, natural diet that contains fresh vegetables and considering supplementing him with immune boosters that can be bought at pet stores.
- Be very careful not to allow any of the removers make contact with the dog's eyes. They can be harsh and irritating and can potentially cause damage.

Keep Historic Sites Free
Published: May 9, 1995
At a time of constricted budgets, Bernadette Castro, the new New York State Parks Commissioner, is understandably looking for ways to generate more income from the users of the thousands of campsites, nature centers, beaches and golf courses enjoyed by tourists and New Yorkers alike. The heir to the Castro Convertibles fortune and onetime Republican candidate for the Senate says she wants park managers to become more "entrepreneurial," often by charging fees for visiting these public facilities.
For parks and recreation areas, her approach makes sense. But Ms. Castro should rule out one possibility she has raised, the idea of extending the fees to places that have traditionally been free because of their educational and cultural value. The state operates 35 historic sites, ranging from Walt Whitman's birthplace to George Washington's headquarters and Hudson River mansions from the Gilded Age. These places draw students and others who might well be discouraged if even a nominal fee were imposed.
For now, Ms. Castro says she wants to impose parking or access fees for cars rather than admission fees, but a charge is a charge no matter how you look at it. True, user fees could help some of these historic sites pay for needed repairs at a time of diminished resources, and could provide money for brochures or tour guides that might help draw even more visitors.
But the Commissioner ought to explore other ways of paying for these benefits, including corporate sponsorship. The principle that should be enshrined is unfettered access to history.

Technet article 91525 describes a registry key that can be set to disable the Autorun feature in Windows operating systems.
The registry key is NoDriveTypeAutoRun, which can be found at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
This key disables the Autoplay feature on all drives of the type specified. Autoplay begins reading from a drive as soon as media is inserted in the drive. As a result, the setup file of programs and the sound on audio media starts immediately.
Unfortunately, this key did not produce the desired result of disabling the Double Click and Contextual Menu features. Microsoft just released KB 953252, which describes how to obtain updates that correct these broken registry key settings in the following Windows Operating Systems:
Windows 2000
Windows XP Service Pack 2
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and 2
Windows Vista
Note: Windows Server 2008 is not affected.
The main purpose of Autorun is to provide a software response to hardware actions that you start on a computer. Autorun has the following features:
• Double Click
• Contextual Menu
• AutoPlay
These features are typically called from removable media or from network shares. During AutoPlay, the Autorun.inf file from the media is parsed. This file specifies which commands the system runs. Many companies use this functionality to start their installers.
Please see KB 952252 for security updates to each applicable operating system to disable autorun capabilities. This KB also describes Group Policy settings to disable all Autorun features, plus instructions on selectively disabling specific Autorun features.
If you're still not sure why you'd want to disable Autorun, check out Scott's article on Autorun attacks.

Due to sales and operational initiatives, our operating income growth of 33.6% outpaced revenue. Our operating ratio improved 40 basis points to 94.0% compared to 94.4% in the fourth quarter of 2011, despite additional costs incurred related to Hurricane Sandy. The impact of additional shares related to our December common stock offering, lost revenue and additional costs incurred related to Hurricane Sandy, and transaction costs related to the fourth quarter acquisitions of Central Cal Transportation (Central Cal), A&A Express (A&A) and Direct Connection Transportation (DCT) negatively impacted our fourth quarter diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.02."Our LTL operating ratio improved to 94.9% in the fourth quarter of 2012 from 95.5% in the fourth quarter of 2011. Our continued initiatives to expand into new geographic regions, build density, improve pricing and enhance productivity, as well as the addition of Expedited Freight Systems (EFS) in August 2012, resulted in a net revenue margin improvement from 24.8% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 28.1% in the fourth quarter of 2012. We are pleased with the improvement in our operating ratio over last year, despite experiencing load inefficiencies due to Hurricane Sandy and incurring integration costs on a non-recurring basis associated with the consolidation of certain EFS operations. "Our continued performance initiatives, as well as improvement in our insurance claims experience led to our TL operating ratio improving sequentially to 92.8% in the fourth quarter 2012 from 94.1% in the third quarter of 2012. TL revenues grew by $44.7 million, or 45.3%, from the prior year quarter. Incremental revenues from our 2012 acquisitions accounted for $34.3 million of the increase, with the balance of $10.4 million representing organic growth of 10.5%. The positive impact of the acquisitions and operating leverage associated with our revenue growth led to a 33.9% increase in our TL operating income quarter-over-quarter.

SuperStar Libra Activities
Why Choose SuperStar Libra?
- Menus featuring Chinese, Indian, Thai, Malaysian fare
- Kuala Lumpur-based line sails short Asia cruises
- No tipping policy (unless you feel like you must)
SuperStar Libra Entertainment
Evening entertainment ranges from magic shows, acrobatic displays and passenger talent nights in the StarDust -- an attractive double-winged, blue and gold lounge on Deck 5 -- to quizzes (including a version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?") in the smart red and gold Galaxy of the Stars lounge (stern end of the same deck).
On the starboard side of Deck 5 is the Admiral's Club Lounge, a small bar featuring live piano music every evening. This is also a pleasant morning retreat, as it has large windows on one side and a stand bearing a selection of papers and magazines.
Other evening options include gaming at the adults-only (18-plus) Star Club casino; late night dancing at the stylish black, grey and copper Boomer's Disco, which overlooks the stern sun beck on Deck 8; or karaoke at the very pretty, gold, red and blue Bollywood Nightclub, which lies opposite the Two Trees restaurant on Deck 10.
SuperStar Libra Public Rooms
The ship's Internet Cafe lies outside the StarDust Lounge on Deck 7; this has seven computers and access costs $5 for 30 minutes, $10 per hour -- you buy swipe cards at the Activity Desk, outside the Stardust's starboard entrance.
The best visual treat is the dazzling display of multi-tiered, realistic-looking exotic foliage, which has replaced a fountain in the ship's main Crystal Court reception area on Deck 4.
At the starboard entrance to the Stardust is a small library -- really little more than a collection of bookcases, but offering a fair range of titles, including works by John Updike, Barbara Vine, Beryl Bainbridge, Gerald Seymour, Amy Tan and Tom Wolfe. The cases also hold paperbacks, a few board games including Clue, Pictionary and Trivial Pursuit, biographies and specialist books on gardens, Asian Cuisine, yoga and art.
Shopaholics will find an eclectic mix of dress jewelry, kids wear, beachwear, bags, chocolate, snacks, logo goods and toys all together in the large Ports O' Call shop, which lies between the ship's Video Planet game arcade and its photo gallery on Deck 5.
SuperStar Libra Spa & Fitness
Newish grey-brown close-woven sun beds are more comfortable than they look, and though the dark blue flooring needs replacing, the overall effect is impressive, with plenty of white plastic tables available for cool drinks in the shade, tiles in fresh seaside-y shades of deep blue, and white and teak surrounds the pool and whirlpools.
Best of all, the ship features a rare concept called "Noiseless Sunbathing," with no music played around the pool until the band strikes up at 6 p.m. -- heaven if, like me, you just like to snooze over a book and hate incessant racket. Plenty of fresh blue and white towels are available, and the pool assistants are delightfully helpful and will spread them on a sunbed for you -- service usually associated more with a luxury than a budget ship.
And if the pool area gets crowded -- not a problem on my cruise -- lots more sunbathing space can be found on the Deck 10 balcony.
There are two spa areas; one at the top of the ship on Deck 10, between the golf driving range and Coconut Willy's outdoor bar, and the other just off the pool area on Deck 9.
The top spa area has a small gym with space for three walkers, two steppers, two bikes, one cross-trainer, weights and an aerobics space. Aerobics classes are free, while special exercise classes -- including cardio kickbox, power benching and Latin Groove dance sessions -- cost $8. The upper spa also has a sauna and one treatment room. Personal training is offered for $20 (30 to 45 minutes); stretching with basic sports massage costs $30 for the same timescale; a half-hour fitness assessment costs $15; and a 45-minute kickboxing class costs $30.
Massages, including Ayurveda and Thai treatments, cost between $92 and $95 an hour ($10 more for an in-cabin massage). Do check if there are special offers available on port days, as discounts are considerable.
The lower level spa is the best place for a massage; white louvre doors lead into a calm area with deep white armchairs for foot treatments, and there are massage beds surrounded by billowing white curtains and cooled by overhead fans.
The ship also has a shop-style, glass-fronted hair and beauty salon on Deck 4.

July 14, 2006
Floyd Landis:
American takes the lead at the Tour de France, presumably much to the consternation of the French and every other cycling fan in Europe.
The Lead Item
Two Words For You:
The "Barbaro Death Watch"
is one of the most fascinating stories of the year.
Start with the notion that all of our pathos is for a horse. There will be no inspiring speech at Sunday's ESPYS. It is classic anthropomorphism.
Layer in the idea that no one but the biggest track junkies had even heard of Barbaro until he won the Kentucky Derby.
Finally, consider that fans are finding time to care about
horse racing
, a sport that almost eclipses boxing as a 20th century sports pillar fading into irrelevance or worse.
Now, the circumstances of Barbaro's rise and fall are unquestionably dramatic:
• Winning one of American sports' most prestigious titles
• Then the giddy sprint to inflate Triple Crown expectations
• Followed by the dramatic in-race injury at the Preakness
• And finally the breathless day-to-day reports of his health -- at first it looked like some miracle of collective prayer and a champ's vitality, but now his survival is being called a "long shot" by his doctors.
I was racking my brain (and Google) for anything in recent sports history that matches this concentrated three-month cycle of birth and (literal) death of national stardom.
In fact, this kind of universally shared fan emotion can ONLY be for an "athlete" that is a horse.
For human athletes, there will always be haters; by merely competing, someone will always root against you.
In this case, Barbaro transcended that. You can legitimately question the fuss (you'll be hissed at), but you'd never say "Good riddance."
Even the disinterested can agree with fans in rooting for Barbaro's pain to be eased.
(Update: His doctor said Barbaro was doing "much better" this morning. The roller coaster of coverage goes on )
MLB Hit List
Teixeira explodes:
For those wondering what happened to the Mark Teixeira of 2005 (43 HR, 144 RBI) in 2006 (9 HR, 49 RBI through the All-Star break), he has an answer: 3 HR and a career-high 7 RBI in Thursday's 15-1 win over the Orioles.
Liriano fizzles:
Maybe it was an All-Star jinx after fans (including me) lobbied so hard for his inclusion on the AL All-Star roster. The Franchise was thumped for 3 HR in his worst outing of the season.
(Meanwhile, there would be no jinx for Travis Hafner. In fact, call his the "The All-Star Snub Reverse Jinx." He hit his 26th HR, increasing his already AL-best SLG, OBP and OPS averages.
But, nah, he's no All-Star.
"Don't Pitch to Pujols!"
It's nice to see that it works as effectively at the start of the second half of the season as it did at the start of the first half. Pujols hit a walk-off HR in the 14th. Of course he did.
MLB Trade Talk
All I can say
is that names like "Gary Majewski" and "Austin Kearns" better be foreshadowing an active two-week swap meet, rather than the high point of what fans are going to get.
(Let's hope the speculation is right that the Nats' acquisition of Kearns opens the door for a sizzling deal to trade Soriano to a contender.)
Other names tossed around:
In a SP-thin market, the White Sox dangling
Javier Vazquez
Freddy Garcia
for quality pen help will get attention; it seems like
Bobby Abreu
, what's the trade "ideal"? Houston found out yesterday when new acquisition Aubrey Huff, imported to inject some pop into their anemic lineup, hit a 3-run HR in his Astros debut.
Paul Pierce: Star gets 3Y/$60M extension from Celtics
Bob Melvin: Close to a contract extension with D'backs
The "720" dunk: Not seen it yet? Use ESPN Search ("720")
Marco Materazzi: FIFA orders him to disciplinary hearings
Yankees: Is NY so hard up for SP that *Ponson* looks good?
Odalis Perez: Dodgers P says team treats him like "trash"
MLB Best/Worst Buys
Kieran Darcy's must-read list
of Best/Worst Buys in MLB is a nice complement to Clayton's NFL "Best Team Money Can Buy" from Wednesday.
Let's put it this way:
For the price of Steve Finley ($7M), you can have Utley, Cabrera, Reyes, Mauer, Morneau, Wright, Kazmir, Howard, Bay, Papelbon and Liriano, with almost $2 million left over.
Wie Fizzles
Michelle Wie's first-round 6-over-par 77
puts her 13 strokes behind the leader and a near-lock to miss the cut after today's second round at the Deere.
What a disappointing display after last year's near-miss (2 strokes) there and her third-place finish at the LPGA's U.S. Open two weeks ago.
All it will do is fuel those who don't think she should be participating ("exemption" invites should include "exemption" from critics).
Michelle should continue to ignore the haters; she'll break through at one of these events. At only 16, she has a good 20 years of cachet left.
Hmm, no wonder the Bengals
took Virginia LB Ahmad Brooks in the third round of the NFL's supplemental draft yesterday:
Linebacker Odell Thurman, Cincy's top tackler, was suspended for the first four games of the 2006 season for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
(Fans might have seen it coming: Thurman was suspended for last season's Week 16 for violating unspecified team rules.)
Between Thurman, fellow LB A.J. "Best Teammate Ever" Nicholson and Chris "Three Strikes" Henry, it's
the Bengals have a slight discipline problem.
USA in World Cup
Frustrated by
the U.S. performance in the World Cup? You're watching the wrong World Cup.
Because in the World Cup of SOFTBALL, the U.S. is THE team to beat:
Offense like Argentina!
Flair like Brazil!
Defense like Italy!
Heart like Ghana!
Jersey like the U.S.!
The team got off to a great start last night with a 14-0 trouncing of Britain. Catch the show for yourself on TV a few times this weekend.
(FRI: vs. Canada, 7:30 p.m., ESPN; SAT: vs. Australia, noon, ESPN, vs. China, 8 p.m., ESPN2; SUN: vs. Japan, 1 p.m., ESPN)
Petrino's Payday
Sure, Louisville football coach Bobby Petrino has turned the program into a perennial Top 25 team.
(Disclaimer: I have a soft/bitter spot for UL after picking the Cards in the 2005 preseason to play for the national title last year.)
But that's quite a payday he earned from the school:
$1.6 million a year, plus bonuses of up to $1 million every three years for not bolting to another college team or the NFL.
(You're forgiven for asking whether Louisville officials thought they were writing a check to "Pitino" and just misspelled the name.)
Unfortunately, that loot won't help Petrino when Louisville is lapped by West Virginia in the Big East and for status as 2006's "trendy pick."
Fashion Watch
I saw an article yesterday
in the Boston Herald about
, a clothing line of Red Sox fan T-shirts made for women.
So I went to their site to buy a
"This Babe's For Gabe"
T-shirt for my wife in honor of our kid, when I was intrigued by some of the other options:
I'm Hot For Trot
This Fanny's For Manny
I'm a Wreck for Tek
Ortiz? Yes Please
I'd Get It On With Papelbon
(On that last one: Sorry, ladies! You'll have to outwork all the Red Sox Nation fanboys currently man-crushing on him.)
Then there's the bargain bin:
I'd Go Wicked Fah with Millah
I'm Claimin' Damon
I'd Do Porn With Bellhorn
Stumbling onto that last one, my eyes have been scarred. It will haunt my nightmares. (And now yours.)
Quickie Book Club
"Feeding the Monster":
How fortuitous that author
Seth Mnookin
was in The Show on SportsNation yesterday
talking about his new book
, which I highly recommend as a July/August beach read.
You don't have to be a Red Sox fan to appreciate the insider (all-)access Mnookin got from the team (key-card to Fenway? Envy!) and how it lets him spin one of the best books ever about a year with a sports team, particularly the details about the ownership and front office.
It makes a fantastic bookend with Simmons' "Die in Peace," with Bill staking out the fan's perspective, and Mnookin delivering a passionately reported journalist's take about the most intriguing team in baseball.
Bruce Feldman may have them ranked in his preseason top 5, but Pete Thamel's investigation of shady course work in today's NY Times may be scandalicious.

I applied online. The process took 2+ weeks. I interviewed at Blackbaud (Charleston, SC) in January 2017.
Over the computer question interview, the questions populate- it gives you a minute or 2 to gather your thoughts, then it records you while you answer. It generally gives you approx 2 minutes to answer.
A couple days later the recruiter asked that I complete a questionnaire and knowledge test. Questionnaire was largely personality based, and knowledge test was you performing various menial tasks simultaneously- I assume to test your multi-tasking abilities.
A couple days later the recruiter asked for an on-site interview. This consisted of 15 minutes with recruiter answering any additional questions about position, company, etc. and a tour around the facility. Then 1 hour with someone performing the job, while I listened with an earpiece. Then about 1 hour with 2 team manager/leaders asking questions like; Tell me a time when you had to deal with a difficult coworker, tell me something you found interesting while shadowing, tell me some resources they used while you were watching, after shadowing- why do you think you'd be good for this position, if you were working on a document for school and that document now won't open- tell me what steps you would take to retrieve it, explain the steps you would take if you tried to watch TV and the TV wouldn't turn on.

I applied online. The process took 6+ weeks. I interviewed at Blackbaud (Charleston, SC) in August 2015.
It was very lengthy. It involved a self-assesment test, a digital interview, and a customer skills online test. The in person interview was 3 hours long. The entire process from start to finish took over a month and half.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Blackbaud (Indianapolis, IN) in June 2015.
Applied online, Interview process was all in one day, took about 3 hours long. Started with a tour of the facility, then took an assessment, assessment was not extremely difficult. Just mainly testing your multi tasking ability, and the usual personality assessment. Then I shadowed someone to see the job and then finished with the actual interview. I was called about 5 days later and offered the position and then they did background check and called and checked all my references.

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Blackbaud.
The first step in the process was a phone screen with the recruiter, followed by an in-person interview with customer support manager. There was a tour of the facility and the job offer followed. The process took about two weeks, from start to finish.

Very quick and easy process that took approximately two weeks. I loved the atmosphere at Blackbaud and the people I interviewed with were extremely helpful and great people. This is an amazing organization. I was offered the position, but unfortunately had to turn down their offer due to my school schedule.
Interview Questions
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Blackbaud.
Multiple online assessments, two online interviews, and a few phone calls. Company sent the salary multiple times, the benefits package, and a relocation package, yet did not extend an offer. The process was stretched out far too long - quite unprofessional.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Blackbaud.
3 interview process. Short phone, longer phone and more depth questions on troubleshooting skills, then an in person that basically combines the two calls as well as a troubleshooting written test. Study and practice troubleshooting steps and questions as if you worked for Apple support or Best Buy Geek Squad. You don't need to be technically savvy just good at asking the write questions and using your resources (knowledgebase and google basically)

I applied online and was invited to take a video interview and a personality test. I also had to do an office simulation test which was kind of ridiculous and no one in the office when I went into the interview had heard of. After that I was contacted by a recruiter and was brought in for a three hour interview consisting of job shadowing and talking to a couple different managers. I heard back a few weeks later.

Q:k7277 control arm bushings kit. I have a couple of questions. Some times when iam slowly backing up and turn I hear and some times, feel a clunk. This is only on the passenger side. Ive replaced all of the steering and had it lined up on the computer. That side occasionaly still makes the same sound and wears out wheel bearings in 6 months. Does this sound like the bushings. Can these bushings be changed on the truck. Does the part store have loaners to press these parts. Does one kit mean both bushings for one control arm. The last question is this the right part number for a :1999 dodge ram 1500 quad cab larime, with two wheel drive and a 360.
1 answer
A:Hi Cheeze, glad to help you! A worn-out bushings can cause the control arms to rattle and clunk while you are driving around corners - a symptom that may be more noticeable at lower speeds. This is an exact control arm bushing for your 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie and it is sold as a pair. However, I would suggest that you take your vehicle and get it thoroughly checked by a certified mechanic before buying any parts that may/may not solve the problem.
Q:Is this for both side suspension or should I order more then one kit.
1 answer
A:This is for just one control arm.

Discussion in 'James Bond 007 series' started by ryan00711, Aug 6, 2005.
What will this game be rated(E E+10 T M A)/?
it's bond and it's from EA, that means T
Usually it's a [T] for TEEN but it could be an [M] for MATURE.
No, it won't be M, Not only is it a bond game, but it's from EA, now, I certainly don't know any M rated EA games, but there might be.
I don't think they have an M rated titles either.
TimeSplitters: Future Perfect is rated M. But it's only published by EA, not in any way developed.
98% sure it will be rated T for teen.
my friend said it would be rated M
Logically, on a par with any Bond movie.
It's going to be rated Teen, same all the other games. It says it will be on the main From Russia With Love page.

Production Line
Well, since I make up a heap of bottles in one go I usually line them all up, pour in the distilled water then pour in the formula one bottle at a time, shake it up and move to the next one like a little production line. Then I stick them in the fridge until the baby is hungry, and then stick them in the warmer to heat it up again.
I still express breast milk for him so if I have some I will add to the finished bottle and mix it up, and in his night bottles I put a teaspoon of rice cereal.
I only have about 8 bottles so I just make them up every night, and that usually covers me for the night and most of the day. Haven't had to throw any away yet. As he gets older and drinks less often I'll make up less bottles.
Ooo.. so practical that you knock it all out in bulk style like that! :)
Moms Expertise06/13/14
Thanks :) I don't have a lot of time in the morning to be washing, sterilizing and making up bottles so it's just easier if I do them all at night, and then I can stick them straight into my baby bag in the morning when I take him to day care. Luckily I also have one of those microwave sterilizers. My god that thing is a godsend. I have to say it's my #1 baby item. Makes things so much easier.

Seantrel Henderson (born January 21, 1992[1][2]) is an American football offensive tackle for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Bills in the seventh round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He played college football at Miami. Henderson attended Cretin-Derham Hall High School and originally signed a letter of intent to play college football at the University of Southern California,[3] but was released from his commitment in July 2010 and eventually committed to the University of Miami.[4]
When Henderson was in high school, Tom Lemming called him "a cross between Jonathan Ogden and Orlando Pace," two of the best offensive tackles in the NFL in the 2000s;[5] Sports Illustrated called him "probably the most polished lineman of the past decade."[6]
High school career[edit]
Henderson was considered the top overall player in his class by a number of recruiting services; Rivals.com named him their 2008 Junior of the Year,[7] while USA Today named him to their All-American First-Team as one of only two juniors.[8] Henderson made the All-USA team in 2009 again, and was also named Offensive Player of the Year, the first lineman to do so in the 28-year history of the award.[9]
He was also featured in a July 2008 issue of Sports Illustrated, profiling young athletes poised to star in their sports, alongside Taylor Hall and Jeremy Tyler.[10]
In 2009, Henderson helped Cretin-Derham Hall to a 5A state championship and was named Minnesota Player of the Year by the Associated Press. It's believed to be the first time the annual award has gone to a lineman.[11]
A two-sport star, Henderson also played basketball.[1] He played for the "Howard Pulley Panthers" on the AAU circuit alongside Harrison Barnes, one of the nation's top basketball prospects.[12] Henderson also throws shot put and discus and won the 1,500 meter race walk, shot put, and discus in the USATF 2004 Minnesota Junior Olympics Outdoor Championships.
After unofficial visits to Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Michigan State, he acknowledged that Michigan was his early favorite.[13] In the summer of 2009, Henderson took unofficial visits to Florida State, Florida, Ohio State, Tennessee, Southern California, and UCLA. At that point, Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State and Michigan were mentioned as leading contenders. Henderson's former Cretin-Derham Hall teammate Michael Floyd was playing for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Henderson scheduled his fifth and final official recruiting visit to the University of Miami for the 2010 Pro Bowl weekend in late January. He had already made official visits to USC, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Florida.[14]
Henderson announced his college decision on Tom Lemming's television show on CBS College Sports on National Signing Day.[15] He verbally committed to the Trojans, but did not sign his letter of intent until after USC went before the NCAA infractions committee on February 19 to respond to allegations relating to a scandal involving Heisman Trophy-winning tailback Reggie Bush.[16] Henderson finally signed his letter of intent on March 22, 2010.[3] When the NCAA rendered its decision banning USC from postseason play for two years and imposing severe scholarship reductions, Henderson asked to be released from his commitment to USC. Henderson was released from his commitment to USC on July 6, 2010.[17]
On July 9, 2010, Henderson announced his decision to attend the University of Miami, which had always been his "second choice", according to his father.[4]
College career[edit]
As a true freshman at Miami, Henderson played 12 games (including 9 starts) and saw most of his action at right tackle. Henderson earned All-Freshman selections by the Football Writers Association of America, College Football News, Phil Steele, and Rivals.com.[18][19]
In 2011, Henderson played in eight games and earned two starts after recovering from off-season back surgery. In March 2012, Henderson was suspended for the first weekend of spring practice for violating team policy. The team also announced that he would not play in the opening game of the 2012 season against Maryland.[20][21]
On August 1, 2012, Henderson was involved in a car accident while driving to a friend's funeral in which the Chevy Impala he was driving ran a red light and crashed into a car carrying a family of six. Two children in the car were transported to the hospital. Henderson received a concussion. Henderson was cited for driving with an expired license and running a red light. Henderson missed the first twelve Miami Hurricane practices while recovering from the concussion.[22]
In the 2012 season, Henderson started seven games at right tackle for the Hurricanes.[23] He was an honorable mention on the All-Atlantic Coast Conference team. Henderson opted to remain at Miami rather than make himself eligible for the 2013 NFL Draft.[24]
After the 2013 season, Henderson was once again named an honorable mention on the All-Atlantic Coast Conference team.[25] He was demoted to backup for three games and suspended for one.[26]
Henderson was invited to the 2014 Senior Bowl. Before the game, he admitted that marijuana use led to his three suspensions from the University of Miami football team. "I'm just being honest with every (NFL) team and letting them know exactly what the situations were, and that I'm putting all the negative things behind me moving on to the next level," he said. "I want to be a starter and play in the NFL."[27]

The Buffalo Bills selected Henderson in the seventh round (237th overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft.[29]
In his rookie season in 2014, Henderson started all 16 games at right tackle. He was a standout as a rookie as he led all NFL players in performance-based pay.[30]
In 2015, Henderson missed the final three games of the season after he was diagnosed with Crohn's disease.[31]
In 2016, Henderson underwent surgery and another operation to remove all infected areas and reattach his intestines before announcing that he would return to the team.[32] Henderson was suspended for the first four games of the 2016 NFL season for violating the league's substance abuse policy.[33] On November 29, 2016, Henderson was suspended 10 games for a second violation of the NFL's policy and program for substances of abuse.[34][35] Henderson admitted that he used marijuana to deal with the pain from his Crohn's disease and the two intestinal surgeries from earlier in the year.

Time to get together the transcripts and the test scores, and put the final touches on those personal essays. It's college application season, again.
To a lot of students, the process seems wrapped in a shroud of mystery. What exactly happens when you send your application out into the unknown only to … wait.
[RELATED: College Strategies for Retaining and Graduating First-Generation Students]
Well, here's a glimpse behind the curtain at one school:
Inside a tiny conference room at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, the admissions committee is preparing to review 23 applications. The committee will spend about two minutes on each before deciding whether to accept or deny admission, or place the application on hold.
To speed things along, the committee uses a lot of jargon, like "L-B-B" for late blooming boy, and "R-J" for rejection.
If it sounds as if they're cutting corners, know that before the committee meets around the table, each application gets a close look from two of the members.
Then it's condensed into a single one-page profile. The one for this student says he comes off just a bit arrogant in his essay and interview:
"Academically he has everything. I wonder if a counselor call might be enlightening?" asks one member of the committee.
"It sounds like maybe he could work on it and be cognizant of it. I mean, he's strong academically," says another.
A third member chimes in, chuckling, "I think his classmates could bring him down to reality."
Ann McDermott is director of admissions at Holy Cross. "You have 13 people in a full committee room and 13 different perspectives, so it can go any different way," she says.
And you hear from a lot of applicants at schools across the country that the admissions process can be frustrating. Disappointed applicants complain that when it comes to discerning between hundreds of students who seem to have the grades, teacher recommendations, and test scores, the process comes down to luck.

Grayson wants to keep Rhodes
Huddersfield striker Jordan Rhodes proved he has taken the step into the Championship in his stride - and Simon Grayson does not want to sell him.
Last Updated: 25/08/12 7:39pm
Huddersfield striker Jordan Rhodes proved he has taken the step into the Championship in his stride with his second goal in a week.
Coveted striker Rhodes, 22, English football's 40-goal top scorer last season while in League One, finished superbly for Huddersfield's second-half clincher in their 2-0 home win against Burnley.
The Scotland international has been tracked by clubs in the Premier League and the Championship for months and Huddersfield's determination to hold onto their prized asset is likely to be tested in the last week of the transfer window.
Town have put a reported £8million price on his head, with chairman Dean Hoyle insisting he will not sell to a Championship rival.
Rhodes, who scored a stoppage-time penalty equaliser against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, smashed a 58th-minute shot into the top corner today after James Vaughan had caused problems in the box.
"Jordan's price has just gone up with that goal," said Town boss Simon Grayson. "We have no intention of selling him until someone meets our valuation.
"Like any other player in the world, Jordan Rhodes has his valuation but we don't want to sell him.
"The chairman has turned down a lot of money already and all Jordan has to do is keep working hard in training every day and hopefully score goals.
"If he does, then it may be that a top Premier League club comes in for him in January."
However, Grayson insisted his side, who led through Joel Lynch's seventh-minute header, were far from a one-man team.
He added: "It was a real good team performance with some good individual performances.
"We closed down well, passed the ball well and were resolute and we have a threat going forward.
"I didn't see whether the ball went in for the first goal but the linesman has made a decision.
"It's important to get your first win for the confidence it gives you going forward. We have set our standards and we must keep them up. We are the underdogs in this league and must be on our guard."
Burnley boss Eddie Howe said: "I need to see the first goal again and also our disallowed goal.
"Joe Mills thought he had kept the first one out and for our effort the ball nicked Charlie but it didn't look like he was beyond the defender."
Howe was concerned that his side conceded from set-pieces and said: "That is not like us. It was a bad day from that point of view.
"In the final third we lacked a bit of spark and invention and did not have an end product.
"I thought we dominated possession and we hoped to create chances and score goals but it didn't happen."
Burnley lost back-to-back games for the first time since March and Howe said: "In this league you have to bounce back.
"This league is very difficult and we have to make sure we are tougher to beat."

Donaire prepares for Mathebula under Conte's supervision
As much as Nonito Donaire tries to focus solely on his opponent on Saturday night, lanky South African Jeffrey Mathebula, "The Filipino Flash" can't help but peek into the future from time to time and wonder what it will take to become the undisputed super bantamweight champion.
He looks at Mathebula (26-3-2, 14 KOs) as just the next step in his quest to conquer the division and then move on to bigger and better things.
But first things first. Donaire (28-1, 18 KOs), the WBO champion, and his trainer, Robert Garcia, know Mathebula, the IBF champion who will meet Donaire on Saturday at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. (HBO, 10 p.m. ET), will not be an easy target, particularly with a nearly five-inch height advantage.
VIDEO: Two Days: Nonito Donaire
"Mathebula is a very tough fighter," Donaire said in a news conference call with reporters last week. "He is a tall guy, the tallest fighter I will have faced and I know (manager) Cameron (Dunkin) is nervous about it. But he's always nervous. He's always looking out for his fighters, that's how he is. But I told Cameron I wanted this fight. I knew this guy would motivate me and he made me train as hard as I did. I don't know what to expect because he is so tall."
Says Garcia: "Mathebula is a great champion and he's going to try and come in and surprise us and surprise the world. (Nonito) has been pushing himself really hard to come out and put on a really good performance."
Donaire, 29, says in one breath he's eager for a knockout against Mathebula, but then in the next breath finds himself looking ahead in the super bantamweight division.
"I try not to look ahead, but I do tend to glimpse a little bit. We have (Jorge) Arce, and (Toshiaki) Nishioka, we have a lot of the guys, like (Guillermo) Rigondeaux, or (Abner) Mares, guys who hold the belts. So for me, my longtime dream growing up has always been to be an undisputed champion. So if everything goes well with Mathebula and the IBF (title), we can go for the WBA or WBC (titles).
"I think the best guy in this division who I want to prove myself to is (WBC titlist) Nishioka. I think Nishioka (39-4-3, 24 KOs) is better than all of these guys. He's proven himself in this weight class to be the real champion."
Donaire, one of the world's top pound-for-pound fighters and known for his powerful punching ability, has agreed to random blood testing for the Mathebula fight and beyond, while making it optional for his opponent.
"I wanted to show that all of the things I've done, I have done through hard work," Donaire says. "I want to show honesty towards my fans. A lot of guys have been getting caught, but I just wanted to prove to my fans that the things I have done I have done by myself."
One reason for Donaire's agreeing to the year-round random blood testing through the Volunteer Anti-Doping Agency (VADA) is because he has incorporated controversial former BALCO founder Victor Conte into his training regimen, and is eager to prove to skeptics that Conte is 180 degrees different from the Conte who was knee-deep in Major League Baseball's steroids scandal a decade ago and spent time in prison because of it.
"We have a great relationship with Victor Conte," Donaire told USA TODAY Sports last month. "I trust the man and he trusts me and we've got to a place where our chemistry has been tremendous.
"I know a lot of people are saying, 'oh, you're dealing with the devil' and this and that, but I guess I always can find the goodness in people when others can't. One thing is, I've always been open to testing, and whatever it represents to the world of boxing in a cleaner way, and that's because I've been working with Victor.
"He's a very, very intelligent man, he knows about a lot of things. There's something that intrigues him, and that's a cleaner sport. He's teaching everyone out there now how to catch people (taking performance-enhancing drugs). And teaching people how to know if (someone) is on it. I always work hard and it doesn't matter to me, but I want to prove my point that it's better to have a cleaner fight."
Under Conte's supervision, Donaire says, he uses a hypoxicator (high altitude simulation), which helps increase the number and size of red blood cells "to accept more oxygen when you're exhausted.
"Overall, the hypoxicator will help increase your stamina and endurance, as well as the proglycosyn that he gets me on after each training session, which is the recovery aspect. And then you have the ZMA, which helps me recover at night when I'm sleeping, with zinc and magnesium."
Donaire says he finds himself sounding like Conte when he tries to explain the scientific aspects of the nutrients, "because I've learned so much from him," and says he feels so much better when he religiously takes the nutrients.
"It tricks your mind and body into performing at an elite level, a high-intensity level," Donaire says.
As for the increased scrutiny that comes with having someone like Conte in your corner, Donaire says, "There is the (increased) scrutiny, but for me it's always been, 'hey, if you guys doubt me, all year round, every day, every minute, test me.' I never hide anything. What I do with Victor, what I take with Victor, I always show it."
Yet Donaire's promoter, Top Rank chairman Bob Arum, while he commends his fighter for taking a stance for a cleaner sport, believes testing at this point is nothing short of dangerous, looking at three fighters few if any previously suspected of cheating —Lamont Peterson, Andre Berto and Antonio Tarver— testing positive for PEDs. Peterson and Berto had both requested Olympic-style testing before testing positive.
"I am not OK with it," Arum says of the year-round testing program. "Until this is quantified and handled by a legally authorized agency or a Federal Commission, you are in no-man's land. With a testing agency, a willy-nilly, which gives exemptions to certain fighters and not to other fighters, it is very dangerous. We talk about a level playing field, and we're not getting a level playing field.
"Everyone, I believe, has good intentions but it has to be done right and done fairly. … We can't let this thing be decided by demagoguery or by people making outlandish statements. It is a very serious problem and it requires a lot of thought."

802,702 was a year in the era known as Mor in the original timeline. ("Beyond the Time Machine")
- Following an attempt by Time Traveler Two and Ktram to infiltrate Foss to rescue Narra Morris, Ktram, Kee, Runa, and a number of other Eloi are killed, the Eloi religious doll destroyed, and finally Despo is also killed and the Morloi leave Foss and begin to live with the Eloi on the surface. Narra becomes the leader of a new prosperous civilization, leading to the creation of New Mor many years later in that timeline ("Beyond the Time Machine")
- It's noted in this story that the resultant civilization did not exist in earlier visits to the future. Therefore, these events must not have taken place in the original timeline.

Kidnapper jailed over 'bizarre' open grave ransom bid
A kidnapper who terrorised a student before pushing her into an open grave has been jailed for at least seven years.
In what the sentencing judge said was a "bizarre" plan, Darren Saltmarsh, 37, of Endeavour Hills, kidnapped the woman in October 2011 after meeting her online.
Victoria's Supreme Court heard Saltmarsh held a knife to her throat, bound her hands and legs, and threatened to kill her.
He stole from her bank accounts before demanding a $20,000 ransom from her family.
The court heard when the money was not paid, he dug a grave in the backyard and pushed the woman into it.
Moments later police raided the house, fearing he was about to kill her.
Saltmarsh has been sentenced to nine-and-a-half years in jail for multiple offences, including kidnapping and attempted murder.
He will serve a minimum of seven years.
