NEW YORK Americans' view of the economy turned grimmer in September as job worries grew. The Consumer Confidence Index fell to the lowest point since February.
The downbeat report, released Tuesday, raises more fears about the tenuous U.S. economic recovery.
The Conference Board, based in New York, said its monthly Consumer Confidence Index stands at 48.5, down from the revised 53.2 in August. Economists surveyed by Thomson Reuters were expecting 52.5.
RECOVERY WATCH: Tracking the economy
JOBS OUTLOOK: Latest data for all states, 384 metros
In another report Tuesday, the Business Roundtable, an association of CEOs of big U.S. companies, said CEOs aren't as optimistic about sales growth now as they were in June, suggesting some plans to hire may be on hold.
The survey says two-thirds of chief executives surveyed in September expected sales to grow, vs. 79%in June. And only 31% of CEOs expect to boost payrolls the next six months, vs. 39% in June. The June percentage had been the highest since mid-2007.
The consumer confidence reading marked the lowest point since February's 46.4. It takes a reading of 90 to indicate a healthy economy — a level not approached since the recession began in December 2007.
Economists watch confidence closely because consumer spending accounts for about 70% of U.S. economic activity and is critical to a strong rebound.
The index — which measures how shoppers feel about business conditions, the job market and the next six months — had been recovering fitfully since hitting an all-time low of 25.3 in February 2009, but Americans are just as downbeat as they were a year ago.
In September 2009, the index stood at 53.4. Since then, it has mostly hovered in a tight range between the mid-40s and the high 50s. May 2010 was the peak, at 62.7.
One portion of the index, which measures how consumers feel now, decreased to 23.1 in September from 24.9. The other, which measures consumers' assessment of economic conditions over the next six months, fell to 65.4 from 72.0.
"Overall, consumers' confidence in the state of the economy remains quite grim," Lynn Franco, director of The Conference Board Consumer Research Center, said in a statement. "And, with so few expecting conditions to improve in the near term, the pace of economic growth is not likely to pick up in the coming months."
Still, fears are easing that the economy is heading toward a double-dip recession. While companies aren't making lots of job offers, far fewer people are applying for unemployment, according to the latest figures from the Labor Department. And the nation's trade deficit narrowed in July, due to a bigger appetite overseas for American exports. Meanwhile, stock prices have staged a September rally and put the Dow Jones industrial average back to about even for 2010.
But many Americans feel they're still in a recession, even though it's officially over. The National Bureau of Economic Research, the panel that determines the timing of recessions, concluded last week that the latest recession ended in June 2009 and lasted 18 months.
People are grappling with unemployment that's stuck at nearly 10% as well as tight credit. And the housing market is still weak. The Commerce Department reported Friday that new homes sold at the second-slowest pace on record in August.
Last month's new home sales were unchanged from a month earlier at a seasonally adjusted annual sales pace of 288,000. Sales were down by 29% from the same month a year earlier.
The Consumer Confidence Index, based on a random survey mailed to 5,000 households from Sept. 1 to Sept. 21, showed how consumers' fears about jobs worsened.
Those saying jobs are "hard to get" rose to 46.1% from 45.5%, while those stating jobs are "plentiful" decreased to 3.8% from 4%. Consumers are also more pessimistic about future employment prospects. Those expecting more jobs in the months ahead remained essentially unchanged at 14.5% in September, compared with 14.7% in August. However, those anticipating fewer jobs increased to 22.7% from 19.6%.

(May 3) -- Where, oh where, is Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Seas?
The hotly anticipated new-build -- which shares the title of "world's largest cruise ship" with sister Freedom of the Seas, measuring over 150,000 tons and carrying over 3,600 passengers -- arrives in the United States today. It will be docked at New York-area Cape Liberty Cruise Port in Bayonne, New Jersey.
However, our search for the ship in photos and on Web cams has been fruitless -- so we'd love to see yours! If you have images of Liberty of the Seas arriving at Cape Liberty or links to great Web cams with a view of the ship, send them along to email@example.com (first one in gets a free Cruise Critic T-shirt). Please put "Liberty's here!" in the subject line.
In the meantime, join in the chatter on our Liberty Lovers - The Countdown Starts Here! forum, and visit our Next "Big" Thing page where you'll find everything Liberty, including an exclusive sneak preview of the ship in Southampton by our U.K-based correspondent.

Too much citizen science?
The BTO runs a perfectly good year-round Garden Birdwatch survey. It has the great merit of being scientifically rigourous, and has recorded all sorts of wildlife for years and years. OK - so the RSPB has the clout to get several minutes airing on the Today programme, but why not use that to implore people to help the BTO out? Surely the RSPB doesn't see itself in competition with the BTO? By running its own survey, what does the RSPB hope to achieve? In my more cynical moments I'd say this was a shameless PR exercise off the back of SpringWatch, which will use a great deal of membership money that would have been better spent on habitat. I'm interested in your thoughts about this. Please post your comments.On a lighter note I spent a very merry weekend butterflying. Marsh and Small Pearl-bordered Fritillaries went very well - but the highlight for me was this very gorgeous Forester moth. Very twinkly.

Please forgive the ignorant question of a U.S. living Yank who, while a member of the RSPB, never is able to attend any of its events or partake in its activities; but doesn't the BTO reach a somewhat different audience than the more popularly-based RSPB?
- Monday, 08 June, 2009
- BirdGuides said...
You're so right - they do. I just think it would have been more responsible of them to promote the extant scientific survey, or at least consult with the BTO and then collect the data in a way that the BTO could have made use of. If you're going to mobilise the nation, why not get as much out of it as possible?
I'm not saying they shouldn't have carried out the survey - just I feel they could have targeted it better.

Do you know if there was/wasn't any discussion with the BTO about this? They do seem to collaborate amicably on many other surveys and activities. Although I do share your cynicism.

I agree that it is shameless PR on the back of Springwatch (of which I'm not a great fan) - but commend the RSPB for doing it. A good opportunity to be siezed and well timed. Hopefully they are not treading on the BTO's toes, and are working together because if they are competing for the same info that is just daft.

Managed properly, this new, entry level activity will feed people into more detailed surveys such as those from the BTO, and organisations monitoring other animals and plants.
- Tuesday, 09 June, 2009
- BirdGuides said...
Completely agree. Managed properly this would be a fantastic opportunity to engage people and gather some valuable data. I truly hope the data is going to be correctly collated and passed on - and also to other smaller organisations such as Bumblebee and Butterfly Conservation and the like. I look forward to seeing the results filtering through.

Not exactly in my bailiwick, but I do hope cooperation prevails.
Beautiful Forester moth.

Texas House Speaker Refuses to Cede Post
Saturday, May 26, 2007; 10:32 PM
AUSTIN, Texas -- Hours after lawmakers who tried to overtake the speaker's podium seeking to oust him were physically restrained, House Speaker Tom Craddick charged through a rowdy floor session Saturday without ceding his coveted post.
The House parliamentarian resigned on the verge of tears earlier as Craddick beat back a rebellion from opponents seeking a vote on his leadership.
Democrats and Republicans alike complain that Craddick has ruled with an iron fist. They say his win-at-all-cost style often forces them to vote against the interests of their own districts.
Throughout the day Saturday, several Craddick opponents hovered around the chamber's back microphone to take turns sniping at his rulings. But Speaker Pro Tem Sylvester Turner, a Houston Democrat, refused to recognize lawmakers who sought to make a motion to unseat Craddick.
Craddick's third two-year term does not expire until the next legislative session convenes in January 2009, but discontent in the chamber is fueling a plot to force him out before the session ends Monday. In the last week, four Republicans, including Rep. Fred Hill, have filed their candidacies to be speaker if Craddick is ousted.
Capping a week of simmering discord, Hill made a request Friday night that would allow the 150-member chamber to vote to oust Craddick. Craddick, often called the most powerful man in state government, refused to recognize Hill to make the motion, then hustled back to his office suite amid a cacophony of boos.
Democrats trying to overtake the speaker's podium were restrained by House sergeants-at-arms as they tried to grab the microphone.
"It is clearly an abuse of power and of office," Republican Rep. Todd Smith of Bedford said later.
To oust Craddick before his term is up, a lawmaker must make a parliamentary maneuver known as a motion to vacate, and a majority of the House must vote in favor of it.
It's called a privileged motion, and a lawmaker must be recognized by the speaker before he or she may speak to the House to make such a motion. The issue Friday night was whether Craddick was obligated to allow lawmakers to speak if they wanted to.

1 ucloud Offers Telecommunications Firms a Clear Path to Private Cloud A publication by:
2 Introduction Telecommunications firms large and small sell products that help their clients move data and applications into the cloud. But behind the scenes, telcos efforts to get their own technology cloud-borne have been fraught with disappointment. Setting up and managing private clouds takes too long and costs too much. Security isn t as airtight as necessary. Regulatory and legal compliance is a pain. Then there are the issues of vendor lock-in and getting different cloud types to play nice together. You know the drill. Now, however, there s ucloud. Connectloud s next-generation Cloud Management Platform provides an avenue for telecom carriers of all kinds to find the value they haven t yet seen from the cloud. Much like operating systems run the basic functions of personal computers, the ucloud software was built from the ground up to handle the jobs of deploying, managing and orchestrating cloud systems on servers, routers and similar hardware. What separates ucloud from other management platforms is the speed, ease and low cost with which telecom carriers can deploy and run clouds of any type. 2
3 Introduction (cont.) Need a cloud to handle a new handset offering? ucloud allows you to set it up in minutes instead of months. Want to consolidate billing and collections? Use ucloud to help get them under one, segregated umbrella. But ucloud also ensures safety and global regulatory compliance. How can we be so sure? Because our software never touches your data, the solution is natively compliant. That also cuts out the time-consuming process of testing that information for security before deploying it in the cloud. On top of that, ucloud provides encryption at multiple points in a cloud orchestration, providing yet another safety backstop. Connectloud s software can scale, allowing you to run as many data centers in as many countries as you require, all while keeping servers, routers and switches geographically close to users to keep latency low. And yet, ucloud provides the power to gain operational efficiency. One system administrator can monitor and control all your clouds from one location, putting simplicity into the system and reducing operating costs. The ucloud system also runs on any hardware, which means you don t have to switch out any pricey machines in the closet. Your capital investment continues to work for you. Interested? Then read on. What follows is a look at cloud-related issues that telecommunications carriers battle against and a deeper dive into how ucloud clears those obstacles. 3
4 The problem According to the analysts at Bain & Co., a fundamental challenge telcos face is choosing where and how to plunge into emerging markets while simultaneously optimizing their operations in existing businesses. That issue manifests itself in various ways. For example: The major telcos must cope with managing two trends: exploding growth in wireless demand and a precipitous concurrent drop in use of wired networks. Even as consumers gobble up mobile bandwidth because of video and popular new applications, the U.S. wireless industry is running out of spectrum through which to move it to and from customers. That, in turn, creates challenges in managing the technological improvements for handling wireless demand. Those improvements include putting wireless traffic onto Wi-Fi networks, deploying small cells and enhancing the backhaul portion of networks, according to Deloitte & Touche LLP. In short, technology changes for telcos faster than almost any other industry. While these dichotomies might sound onerous, the cloud should help deal with all of them. Telcos could set up individual private clouds to handle elements of their wireless networks, such as operations as small as groups of cell sites in a given geographic region, all the way up to applications as large as the voice portion of a landline network. Private clouds also could be tasked with handling specific devices on the network. But, to date, the flexibility to launch, monitor and maintain such arrangements has been missing from cloud platforms. Some simply can t scale to handle the jobs. Others might be industrial strength, but they are too big and clumsy to cost-effectively handle tasks for small and midsize telcos. 4
5 The problem (cont.) Telcos also have suffered for a lack of dev/test capacity. As a result, developers crank up their own space in the public cloud. While the intent of shadow IT projects might be good, those projects divert time and resources away from the core mission and they lie beyond the CIO s control. Perhaps more importantly, shadow IT can be a security threat, one of many that telcos already face. As Deloitte has pointed out, carriers in particular face a smorgasbord of security issues, ranging from the usual hacking and malware to new avenues through which evildoers access networks. One of them is the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) craze and another is machine-tomachine (M2M) communications. Hackers are busy exploiting every nook and cranny in the hunt for customer data. Look no further than the international headlines. Private cloud solutions alone might not fix all security issues, but they would be a good start. Storing key data and applications in a secure internal cloud environment is one avenue for keeping proprietary information away from the bad guys. But as is the case with flexibility and elasticity, security has to this point sometimes been problematic in the cloud a major reason why so many companies have shied away from it in the first place. Telcos can t take chances with security, in large part because of the heavy regulatory burden they operate under. Yearly audits by government agencies, standards bodies and corporate auditors place a premium on compliance, something that can be difficult to achieve even with legacy systems that aren t cloud-based. 5
6 The problem (cont.) And yet, telcos are under simultaneous pressure from their boards to lower capital and operating costs, both by reducing their hardware inventory and making better use of the machines they ve got. The cloud seemingly should help solve all of these problems: Flexibility, security, compliance, cost efficiency. But alas, Cloud Management Platforms and bolted-on solutions offered by legacy vendors simply haven t been up to the task to date. What has been needed is a cloud solution built from the ground up to serve the needs of large enterprises in telecommunications and other industries, whether their vision for cloud is to achieve: Increased Dev/Test Capabilities: On-demand test/dev capacity that speeds apps to market without the use of shadow IT. A Public-Cloud Lite : Instant access to increased production capacity without losing speed of service delivery similar to the elasticity available in the AWS public cloud, but in the safety and control of your own environment. Complete IT Transformation to Enable IT-as-a-Service Paradigm: True self-service cloud access across the organization in a way that fosters a wholesale realignment of IT with business units, other departments, partners and revenue goals of the organization. Connectloud s ucloud management platform was built specifically with all those things in mind, reducing expenses and headaches while keeping telcos in firm compliance with all the laws and regulations they face. True business value from private cloud computing is finally here. 6
7 The ucloud solution Speedy Deployment and Orchestration: Using ucloud, the time it takes to deploy and orchestrate clouds shrinks from six months or longer down to 30 to 45 days. Configurations can be cloned once the system is running to make for faster deployments with other clouds. Our technology also can deliver configuration reports on clouds you operate. Agility: Quickly set up and orchestrate clouds for unlimited different purposes, whether it s handling your wireline network, operating certain devices such as Android and Apple phones or managing specific cell sites. Bring billing and collections under one virtual roof for added efficiency. Operating Cost Savings: ucloud helps reduce operating costs. The ucloud platform allows one system administrator to deploy clouds via software-based tools that can handle tasks such as storage, databases, administration and operations. As the tenant administrator becomes an efficiency expert, costs fall. All told, small and mid-sized telecom companies can save anywhere from $10 million to $20 million annually with ucloud, while larger telcos can expect $40 million to $50 million in savings each year. Data Center Consolidation: The ucloud platform stretches what existing data centers can do, which means you don t need as many of them. That, in turn, allows for easier updating of legacy applications in the telco. The ease with which a telco can decide where to situate data and applications geographically means it s also easier to reduce latency issues for customers. 7
8 The ucloud solution (cont.) Audit Efficiency and Compliance: It s easy to set up modified clouds for government audits. Toeing the line on security regulations also is simplified. ucloud never touches your data, meaning you never risk non-compliance. Security: Connectloud works with any security arrangement and across far-flung operations. Tenant administrators can easily change security and encryption as often as they like. Control and Visibility: The ucloud platform offers dashboard reporting for senior executives and tenant administrators, including easy-to-read reports on the resources each cloud is consuming, changes to each cloud, audits of the changes that have taken place and ways to get the cloud set back up ( version control for the cloud) if there s a problem. Hardware agnostic: ucloud is hardware-agnostic. The servers and routers you have now will work. No need to buy fresh gear. 8
9 The ucloud solution (cont.) Flexibility: Set up and run private, hybrid or public clouds, scaling or shrinking them on the fly. Vendor lock-in is a thing of the past, since ucloud works with multiple cloud providers. ucloud is flexible enough to allow the usage of existing servers within your organization as well as the usage of servers offered by well-known public cloud providers in case of peak demands ( Cloud Bursting ). That means unparalleled flexibility to move data, applications and projects into the cloud. Some possible use cases: Telcos can build a cloud for customer surveys on product offerings, then execute development plans around those products in the same cloud or another. Different pricing and product plans can be stored and changed in the cloud. A cloud-based system could offer online technical support via customers computers. Advertisements for marketing campaigns could be hosted and sent through the cloud. Private clouds could be used to store and monitor responses to customer feedback. Private clouds could be used to form and store years worth of audit trails for customer billing. Big Data: The ucloud software can help scale computing capacity for large number-crunching projects, and then de-commission that capacity when the job is done. You pay only for the virtual machines you use and no more. 9
10 The ucloud solution (cont.) Subscription model: Telcos need not worry about vendor lock-in, because Connectloud licenses its software on a pay-as-you-go model. When you re done with your cloud needs, you can simply walk away rather than being locked into a long-term contract. Intuitive multitenancy: ucloud provides telcos with adjustable pools of resources and simplified tools that allow creation of secure, customized clouds to support any number of subtenants. That could mean departments within an organization or other companies entirely. Clients can be segregated within their pools, with each dataset safe and secure from all others. It also allows easy client billing or accounting for the resources each subtenant uses. Resources can be expanded or contracted on demand in only minutes, and they can all be controlled from a single point that is encrypted on multiple levels. 10
11 Conclusion In short, Connectloud is making private cloud adoption easy for telecommunications companies. Implementation goes from months to days. Flexibility, security, compliance and cost efficiency are all easier and faster to achieve. Executives and tenant administrators alike can get easy-to-read dashboard reports on the state of the clouds they oversee. And whether the private cloud you want to launch is limited test/dev, public-cloud lite or transformational for your organization, ucloud is just the right size for your needs and your budget.

New Delhi, Sept. 18 : The Election Commission on Friday rejected the plea of the Congress and its alliance partners, who sought a ban on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Mann ki baat' radio programme, alleging that it could be used to directly influence the outcome of the Bihar Assembly elections.
The Election Commision had earlier said that while no blanket ban could be imposed on the programme, it would take action if parts of the programme were found to be in violation of the model code of conduct now in place in Bihar.
The Congress had alleged that the 'Mann ki Baat' programme will be a violation of the model code of conduct ahead of the Bihar polls.
"We've given a petition to the EC seeking a ban on Prime Minister's Mann ki Baat till the Bihar polls are over, as it will be a violation of the model code of conduct. We've requested the EC through a petition not to allow the broadcast of the Mann Ki Baat on 20th September," Congress spokesperson Surjewala told media after meeting the EC. (ANI)

|Home > Documentation > Reference > Samples > Sample applications > DataCDInfo -- A sample about Struts1+EJB+JPA+JTA+Security Annotations
|Customer Simple ejb application with a JPA entity
|Sample applications
|daytrader - a more complex application
This article describes how to develop a Struts1 web application for Geronimo. Besides Struts1 technology, you can also find sample code about usages of JPA and Security annotations.
Because of a problem described in GERONIMO-5020, this sample application is not available as a geronimo plugin for the time being.
This article doesn't intend to serve as a tutorial of developing a Struts1 application. For informations about Struts1 development, see Struts1 web site.
This article is organized into the following sections.
Assuming you have accumulated lots of archival data CDs from your computer, each of them includes rich of information you ever collected. The collection of those archived CDs is your valuable knowledge asset, and certainly you want to manage them carefully and orderly for easy references in the future. The DataCDInfo sample application is about to assist you with this task.
With this application, you can register a user, and then login to add records for your archived CDs. You can record detail information that is not suitable to label on CD surface, such as detailed list of data CD content, archived date, and size of the CD.
This application pre-defines some admin roles who will be able to view overall recorded CDs and help retrieve user's forgotten password.
In short words, DataCDInfo is a simple CRUD(Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete) application, which adopts Struts1, JPA, JTA, and security annotation techniques.
DataCDInfo uses the typical Java EE application structure, which includes an EJB module, an Web module and an EAR module.
The EJB module includes the major business logic of an application. It consists of JPA entity beans, a stateless session bean, a stateful session bean and some exception classes.
ejb-jar.mxl. The configurations in
ejb-jar.xml file will override the ones in code already.
META-INF/persistence.xml as shown below.
If the persistence context requires some non-transactional operations, such as table sequence generation, you have to define a
non-jta-data-source as well. Otherwise, you will encounter an exception like
org.apache.openjpa.persistence.RollbackException: The transaction has been rolled back.
The maven project layout of the EJB module as follows:
|-- pom.xml `-- src `-- main |-- java | `-- org | `-- apache | `-- geronimo | `-- samples | `-- datacdinfo | |-- beans | | |-- DataCDBean.java | | `-- OwnerBean.java | |-- core | | |-- DataCDInfoAdmin.java | | |-- DataCDInfoAdminLocal.java | | |-- DataCDInfoJTAImpl.java | | |-- DataCDInfoLocal.java | | `-- DataCDInfoRemote.java | `-- exceptions | |-- DuplicatedDataCDException.java | |-- IncorrectPasswordException.java | |-- InvalidOwnerException.java | `-- InvalidPasswordException.java `-- resources `-- META-INF |-- ejb-jar.xml |-- openejb-jar.xml `-- persistence.xml
All Struts1 objects are in the Web module. A typical Struts1 web application uses a configuration file to initialize its resources. Those resources include ActionForms to collect input from users, ActionMappings to direct input to server-side Actions, and ActionForwards to select output pages.(Quoted from Struts1 documentation).
The DataCDInfo application web module consists of:
org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils method.
DataCDInfoResource.properties and several
resources directory, and then run a new build for later deployment.
struts-config.xml and
struts-config.xml file is the main configuration file of a Struts1 application. All mandatory informations of a Struts1 artifact such as ActionForm, Actions, ActionMapping, and Validator, should all be defined in this file.
Besides the artifacts of Struts1, there are some other artifacts used for DataCDInfo admin logic operations:

The maven project layout of the Web module as follows:
|-- pom.xml `-- src `-- main |-- java | `-- org | `-- apache | `-- geronimo | `-- samples | `-- datacdinfo | `-- web | |-- DataCDInfoAdminServlet.java | |-- ListOwnerServlet.java | `-- struts1 | |-- DataCDActions.java | |-- DataCDForm.java | |-- DataCDInfoContextListener.java | |-- OwnerActions.java | `-- OwnerForm.java |-- resources | |-- DataCDInfoResources.properties | |-- DataCDInfoResources_en_US.properties | |-- DataCDInfoResources_zh.properties.template | `-- DataCDInfoResources_zh_CN.properties `-- webapp |-- META-INF | |-- LICENSE | |-- MANIFEST.MF | `-- NOTICE |-- WEB-INF | |-- geronimo-web.xml | |-- struts-config.xml | |-- validation.xml | `-- web.xml |-- admin | |-- adminhome.html | |-- showCDs.jsp | |-- showOwners.jsp | `-- showPasswd.jsp |-- auth | |-- logon.html | `-- logonError.html |-- header.html |-- index.html `-- view `-- jsp |-- AddCD.jsp |-- ListCDs.jsp |-- Logon.jsp |-- Logout.jsp |-- Register.jsp |-- RemoveCD.jsp `-- UpdateCD.jsp
The EAR module contains database creation scripts and the application deployment plan. The application deployment plan will override the duplicate configurations defined in the EJB module and Web module.
In the application deployment plan, there are definitions about the web context root and the security realm used to authenticate the admin operations.
The DataCDInfo application uses the default geronimo security realm
geronimo-admin, which is a .properties file-based realm. To enable "superadmin" role used by this application, these .properties files in
/var/security must be modified before starting Geronimo server:
The plain text password will be encrypted when the geronimo server restarts.
Two datasources are defined in the deployment plan.
jdbc/DataCDInfoDS is for JTA scenarioa, and
jdbc/NoTxDataCDInfoDS for non-JTA.
To map the application security roles to Geronimo security roles, the deployment plan must include configurations as below:
Besides the default deployment plan, there is another plan for MySQL database. You can enable the database by using deploy command:
deploy deploy DataCDInfo-JTA-ear-2.2.ear geronimo-application-mysql.xml
You must install proper mysql jdbc driver into Geronimo repository first before deploying the DataCDInfo application with MySQL deployment plan
The maven project layout of the EAR module as follows:
|-- pom.xml `-- src `-- main `-- resources |-- DataCDInfo_tables_derby.sql |-- DataCDInfo_tables_mysql.sql `-- META-INF |-- application.xml |-- geronimo-application-mysql.xml `-- geronimo-application.xml
If you just use "admin" role(for example, use "system" account defined in the geronimo-admin realm) to pass the authentication of DataCDInfo Admin resources, you will see an exception like this when trying to view the owner's password.

Anniversaries Again
Today is the eleventh anniversary of our moving into our house, and the twentieth anniversary of my woo-woo self-marriage ceremony. Huzzah!
I was very bad today and didn't exercise, at least in part because I slept ridiculously late. But I have gotten some writing done -- although I'm not satisfied with it -- and in a few minutes, I'll be headed over to my friend Katharine's house to knit.
Liz and I are both getting bombarded with huge bills for Dad, for things we thought the VA had already handled. I have to make a bunch of phone calls tomorrow.

Boutique Hotel Set on Shores of Lake Geneva
When a rambling summer estate was built on the shores of Lake Geneva's Buttons Bay back in 1883, the local newspaper called its location "unexcelled" and "so pretty that it is a wonder that others have not seen it before." The property included eight acres set along the shoreline and a luxurious hilltop residence with commanding views of the water. After serving as a private home for wealthy businessmen and a gathering spot for local political leaders, the mansion was razed in 1989 and replaced with The Geneva Inn. The English-style lodging lives up to the estate's tradition of luxury with a fine-dining restaurant, dramatic architectural features, and panoramic lake views.
The Geneva Inn's Grandview Restaurant and Lounge, an upscale steak-and-seafood spot, makes the most of its waterfront location. Tables are strategically arranged so that all diners can enjoy unobstructed views of the lake and the marina through floor-to-ceiling single-pane windows. Though the dinner menu changes seasonally, there's always a focus on fresh seafood, such as seared norwegian salmon or seared sea scallops with macadamia-nut risotto. The restaurant hosts a daily complimentary continental breakfast for overnight guests, and on Sundays, guests and locals alike stop in for a decadent champagne brunch that begins with a complimentary glass of bubbly.
Each of the guest rooms features bedtime chocolates and free WiFi. The land-view rooms exude an elegant country charm, with wooden furnishings and traditional floral fabrics. Many have private balconies and oversize whirlpools. A raised fireplace distinguishes the hotel's three-story atrium, and outside there's a private pier lined with boat slips (open seasonally). If you'd like to explore your surroundings, a 22-mile lakefront footpath starts right outside the inn.
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin: Lakeside Mansions and Historical Museums
Located within 90 miles of Chicago, Milwaukee, and Madison, Lake Geneva has become one of the Midwest's most popular destinations for recreation. Geneva Lake—a gaping gulf of fresh water ripe for swimming, leisurely sails, water skiing, and tubing—is the resort town's biggest draw in the summer. Admire the scenery by taking a stroll on the Geneva Lake Shore Path, a 21-mile walkway planned by early settlers that stretches around the entire lake. Along the way, you'll pass expansive gardens and the opulent estates that helped the town earn the nickname "Newport of the West."
In the winter, outdoor activities range from sledding and cross-country skiing in Big Foot Beach State Park to ice-fishing on Geneva Lake. There's also plenty to do indoors. The Geneva Lake Museum takes visitors back in time with re-created late 19th- and early 20th-century shops, and the 1897-era Yerkes Observatory is home to the world's largest refracting telescope.

The Daily Checklist
A small daily task, if it be really daily, will beat the labours of a spasmodic Hercules.
~Anthony Trollope~
Heres a problem worth solving: am I doing the thing I most need to be doing right now?
How do you figure that out?
You might be reading this article, but should you be doing something more important? Or checking on email or social media to see if theres something else important you should be doing? Theres an anxiety that many people feel when it comes to this question, on a fairly regular basis throughout the day.
The secret to solving this problem is:
1) to learn to trust yourself; and
2) let go of the worry
Both parts are important. Ill show how to use a daily checklist as a tool for learning to trust yourself.
Learning to Trust Yourself
If you trust that you'll get the important stuff done each day, and you know that you have good instincts for deciding what needs to be done, you can let go of the worry.
The worry comes when you don't really believe you're going to get the important stuff done.
You look at other people, and they all seem to be doing cooler or bigger or more important stuff then you're doing. OK, maybe not your lame brother-in-law, but pretty much everyone else on Facebook and Twitter.
You look at yourself, and think, Hmmm maybe this isn't the best thing to be doing maybe I could be doing something better, more urgent, more productive maybe I should change my goals? Maybe I should do some reading to figure it out?
And so you search. But honestly, while its good to ask these questions now and then, sometimes its best just to choose something and dive in, and not worry about whether its the perfect choice. A decent choice is much, much better than being paralyzed by worry and not choosing at all.
So trust that things are going to turn out OK, even if you haven't made the perfect choice.
The Daily Checklist
A good tool for learning to trust yourself to do all the important stuff is to make a daily checklist. Put 5-7 things on there. Try to get almost all of them done each day, but know that its not always fated to happen. Often things that aren't in your control come up and change your plans.
The checklist does not have to be perfect. Choose 5-7 things you think need to be done each day, at a minimum.
Here's an example of what I think a good checklist might contain:
Meditate this helps you to learn to trust yourself
Do your Most Important Task (MIT) for me this is usually writing
Workout or go for a walk don't sit all day!
Eat several servings of greens I think green veggies are the most important food group, so I make them a priority
Floss an overlooked basic health
Learn lately I've been learning a little Japanese & some beginner programming
Spend time with family
Notice that social media, reading news, watching TV, checking email, browsing my favorite sites, sharing photos none of these are on the list. If I'm doing one of these things and not one of my daily checklist items, I'm probably not doing the right thing.
Over time, your daily checklist might change. But just having one helps you to evaluate what's important and what's not.
And when you learn to do this, on an instinctive level, then you can begin to trust yourself, and let go of the worry. Then you can get back to the work, and smile.

If possible could you post the following: Party Setup (classes and ranks), Monster(s) fought, Location, SP (per fight or per hour), and any other notes you might have.
I'm trying to figure out a good standard party setup to adapt to the new way to gain skillups since the 11/25 update. Tomorrow (I've got work all day today) I'm going to try and form a group that consists of Conjurer(me for healing), Gladiator, then 2-3 damage dealers and try different locations and monsters.
I'll keep everyone posted on what I find out, and if others can do the same that would be great!
I made a google spreadsheet that the information can be stored in. Just click on the link below to view/edit it.
