The Hotel Islay in Sussex Gardens-- where, on the day after his visit to Ascot, George Smiley under the name of Barraclough had set up his operational headquarters-- was a very quiet place, considering its position, and perfectly suited to his needs. It lay a hundred yards south of Paddington Station, one of a terrace of elderly mansions cut off from the main avenue by a line of plane trees and a parking patch. The traffic roared past it all night. But the inside, though it was a fire-bowl of clashing wallpapers and copper lampshades, was a place of extraordinary calm.I sent that paragraph to my parents, and my dad replied, "travel makes so many dimensions of life more interesting, doesn't it," which seems to me exactly right.
(A ton of human history has unfolded on that little fleck of land. I spent two weeks walking around London, and that's all it took to cover the territory reasonably well. Novels and news stories, short stories, songs about Soho and assorted Underground stations, the little bits of history I stumble on-- Shakespeare and the Globe, Victoria, Elizabeth, Henry VIII-- in two weeks of walking I've been to those places.
A friend from college is doing graduate work at University College London and staying in a dorm around the corner from where I (and George Smiley!) stayed. In class last semester I singled out a particular piece of art for scorn. I'd seen it at the Tate Modern, and although I didn't mention that, a student later told me that she knew exactly the piece I was talking about-- she'd seen it at the Tate, too. More than the other places I've been, London is a bottleneck in the world.)

Various Options Available for Dentures in Haverhill, MA
There are two types of dentures, and many different reasons why you may need a set of partial or full dentures. Full dentures consist of a traditional set of upper and/or lower oral prosthetics.

Our Haverhill dentists on Lincoln Ave can help you decide if dentures are the right option for your oral health.
Here at our Lincoln Ave Dr. Dental office, we pride ourselves on being a resource provider when it comes to dental services. We provide precautionary information on avoiding dentures at a later date- while endorsing natural dental health. For those in need of dentures right away, we provide inexpensive options and education. If you're seeking a denture consultation in Haverhill near Lincoln Ave. then please contact us today.
Many people in Haverhill, MA have never heard of Xerostomia, or how it relates to dentures. The term xerostomia means dry mouth. Our dental specialists are familiar with dealing with this common side effect of dentures when worn while prescribed certain common medications. If your dry mouth is related to wearing dentures, often Xerostomia can be healed using oral moisturizes recommended by your dentist. Other medical issues and medications can cause dry mouth, which is why you should talk to your Haverhill, MA dentist about this issue and your dentures.
Are Dentures Right For Me?
As your Haverhill, MA dentist will explain, full dentures and partial dentures do not cost a lot of money and the health benefits are amazing. Dentures can improve your smile and improve your social life, while also helping you keep your jaw bones and facial muscles intact as you age. Contact our Haverhill, MA dentist to learn more about dentures and what options are right for you.

Dr. Janusz Korczak emerged from world war 1, in which he was an officer in the polish army, with a vision that children constitute a disticnt class with their own psychology and political identity. he anounced that he would become their Karl Marx. He founded an orphanage in which children governed themselves. They would even come to form their own religion and publish their own newspaper.
The Children's Republic became an ideal for orpahanages all over the world. Its orderliness and spirit were such that when the SS arrived, the children marched through the ghetto behind their flag (King Matt's flag, King Matt being the imaginary Child King of the World). Korczak had been offered sanctuary on the "Aryan side" of Warsaw but turned it down repeatedly, saying that he could not abandon his children. Now too, he refused offers of sanctuary, insisting that he would go with the children. The children were dressed in their best clothes, and each carried a blue knapsack and a favorite book or toy. Joshua Perle, an eyewitness, described the procession of Korczak and the children through the ghetto to the Umschlagplatz (deportation point to the death camps):
... A miracle occurred. Two hundred children did not cry out. Two hundred pure souls, condemned to death, did not weep. Not one of them ran away. None tried to hide. Like stricken swallows they clung to their teacher and mentor, to their father and brother, Janusz Korczak, so that he might protect and preserve them. Janusz Korczak was marching, his head bent forward, holding the hand of a child, without a hat, a leather belt around his waist, and wearing high boots. A few nurses were followed by two hundred children, dressed in clean and meticulously cared for clothes, as they were being carried to the altar. (...) On all sides the children were surrounded by Germans, Ukrainians, and this time also Jewish policemen. They whipped and fired shots at them. The very stones of the street wept at the sight of the procession.
According to a popular legend, when the group of orphans finally reached the Umschlagplatz, an SS officer recognized Korczak as the author of one of his favorite children's books and offered to help him escape, but once again, Korczak refused. He boarded the trains with the children and was never heard from again.
in Yad VashemSome time after, there were rumors that the trains had been diverted and that Korczak and the children had survived. There was, however, no basis to these stories. Most likely, Korczak was killed with his children in a gas chamber upon their arrival to Treblinka. There is a memorial grave for him at the Powzki Cemetery in Warsaw.

Recently on the Qt Labs blog Harald posted about a new port of Qt to QNX. On the blog there is a video where you can see QtWebKit rendering and today I got a email with a photo of Arora running on QNX. Because of Qt just like Arora builds on OS X, Windows, Linux and Embedded Linux Harald didn't have to make any changes to the code to build the binary. Although from the photo you can see that if for such a small device you would want to tweak the interface a bit or at least hide the toolbars and status bar from the view menu (which can also be hidden with ctrl-m).

We've already declared 2014 the Year of the Brow—and come to learn how much a healthy arch can frame our faces and accentuate our best features. We've certainly embraced a fuller look (and are giving our tweezers a rest), but our eyebrows shouldn't be entirely neglected. We style our hair for parties, so why not our brows, too? It's an oft-overlooked way to switch things up. Here, brow guru Zoey Van Jones shares four festive looks perfect to try this party season and into the new year.
Related: Testing the Trend: I Dyed My Eyebrows Rainbow Colors
Dark and bold
Like a bold lip, a strong brow similar to Jessica Alba's can bump up a look a notch. Add drama to any outfit by simply going a shade or two darker than daytime brows—and it works on all skin tones and hair colors. Many women do this permanently with in-salon brow tinting, but you can test the waters and get the same result with a brow pencil or brow powder. Van Jones suggests Tarte Brow Architect, which comes with a built-in highlighter and a triangular pencil tip for a more precise shape. Start at the center and sweep outward lightly until your whole eyebrow is filled in a couple of shades darker than usual.

Full and feathery
The laissez-faire eyebrow style that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen swear by is perfect for the bohemian girl (or someone who is growing out her brows). To create this feathery look, use the Zoey Van Jones Brow Shadow Duo and fill in your brow with the darker color on the outside and the lighter color in front. This may seem counterintuitive, but it will actually even the tone across your brow. To complete the rich look, brush up the hairs with a tinted brow gel, such as this one by Anastasia Beverly Hills.
Light and manicured
Another approach to holiday brows is to lighten them as Jennifer Lopez does. This works better for those with warm skin tones (if your skin is fair, you might end up looking washed out). You can have them lightened or lifted professionally, but just to switch things up for a night or two, line and fill them in with a brow pencil like Lancôme Le Crayon Poudre to broaden the edge. Then apply Zooey Van Jones Tinted Brow Gel in a shade lighter than your natural brow color.
Related: 3 Steps to Getting Perfect Eyebrows While You Grow Them Out
For braver souls who really want to turn heads, using color can be fun. It works in all shades, from pink to blue to to gold. There are many ways to achieve this look: You can brush up your brows with colored mascara, or apply a clear brow gel and then dust them with loose pigment like M·A·C Pigment in Old Gold or Make Up For Ever Artist Shadow in Neon Pink. For pastel-blue brows like Hannah Bronfman, use a firm slant brush to apply M·A·C Paint Pot in Clear Water following the outside edge of your brow.

Freddie Starr was taken to hospital just hours after chomping on some stomach-churning food during I"m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!
The 68-year-old funnyman ate mice tails, among other things.
He had to be seen by medics and was taken from the camp for tests, but is said to be in "good spirits".
Freddie – who has had heart surgery – was taken ill just two hours after taking part in the show"s "greasy spoon" bushtucker trial.
The comic had already been late arriving in the camp after a paperwork problem which arose as a result of his heart attack.
It"s thought his illness was some sort of allergic reaction – possibly to a bite or brushing against a tropical plant – rather than his gruesome meal.
A spokesman for the ITV1 show said: "Freddie Starr was taken unwell in the jungle.
"He was immediately attended to by on-site medics and taken to hospital where he was assessed by doctors.
"He will remain in hospital overnight as a precaution and further tests continue, he is in great spirits and keeping nursing staff entertained."
Freddie was chosen by viewers to take part in the trial with reality star Mark Wright.
He was unfazed as he munched his way through five courses of unpleasant grub, beginning with a fermented egg.
The next course included bugs, cheese fruit, mealworms and mice tails.
He rounded off the meal with cooked camel toe, then turkey testicles, as his competitor looked on in wonder.
"You are a lunatic – you would never have stopped," Mark Wright told him.

WavePhore Introduces NewsPak
Real-Time News Made Real Easy
Phoenix, AZ - If you've ever tried to add news to your enterprise or external web site, you probably discovered that it's not as simple as it seems. Even if you survive the daunting negotiations with content providers, you quickly learn that processing news from many different sources - in different formats - requires powerful (not to mention expensive) equipment and software. But NewsPak from WavePhore has changed all that.
NewsPak gives web site operators and developers the power to put pre-licensed, real-time news from top-name content sources right on their sites with minimal development.
"This service allows us to easily add company-specific news to the more than 500 web sites we manage for our clients...bringing more readers who come back to their site again and again," said Rob Adler, President of CCBN.com. As savvy developers know, this "sticky content" adds value to the information already on a site. "With NewsPak, we can keep our sites current for our clients' shareholders, while keeping our operating costs down so clients get an affordable service," Mr. Adler said.
Through content agreements from premiere providers, NewsPak delivers content from 34 top news sources generating more than 2,000 stories each day.
These Content Providers include AP Online, compiled and edited from the wires of the Associated Press. AP Online delivers approximately 600 stories a day, including national and international news, business and financial coverage, sports stories and scores, entertainment, politics, and even weather. PR Newswire is also a key provider, distributing full-text news releases for public relations and investor relations professionals worldwide. And provider partner COMTEX Newsroom provides enhanced products featuring the top stories in personal finance, stock market movements
"As the leading provider of Internet, satellite, and FM content delivery for the world's largest, most respected news organizations, WavePhore is uniquely positioned to deliver NewsPak. Our years of expertise as well as our established relationships with more than 4,500 premiere content sources enable us to provide web site owners with the most robust news solutions," said David Deeds, Chairman, President and CEO, WavePhore.
NewsPak is also the first to deliver content in XML (Extensible Markup Language) format. And WavePhore is actively involved with the XMLNews initiative, which supports and promotes the use of XML and other open standards for news delivery. XML enables providers to distribute all content in a single, standardized format.
WavePhore's NewsPak product will deliver most of the major North American news feeds in the two open XML formats defined by the XMLNews initiative. These include XMLNews-Story for content and XMLNews-Meta for metadata. Both formats are compatible with open industry standards such as RDF (Resource Description Format) and NITF (News Industry Test Format). They can also be processed with any XML-enabled software. In addition to fully conforming implementation, WavePhore incorporates appealing enhancements. For example, news story metadata items are presented in a single, standardized format, but original vendor-supplied metadata tags are available as well, all appropriately identified in the XML file.
"XML is changing the fundamental nature of news and information delivery over the Internet," said Mr. Deeds. "The wide variety of formats and delivery mechanisms introduced in the past by news publishers defined a mission for WavePhore: aggregate, normalize, and redistribute news in a standard format that makes adding news to any web site easy and inexpensive."

Enter your email for the Weekly Great Deal
Some people are lucky — they can sleep through just about anything while most of us struggle to fall asleep in noisy
environments. So what do you do if your neighbor's dog insists on barking all night, the kids have turned up the music… or traffic
noise keeps you awake? Get LectroFan — and regain your sanity!
LectroFan is the affordable alternative to costly sleep aids and high–priced sound machines available today. LectroFan mimics the
oscillating sounds of an electronic fan or generates pure white noise in a variety of pitches with adjustable volume for optimum effect —
also known as sound masking.
LectroFan conceals both random and repetitious sounds by masking over these intruders and can provide nearly the same level of rest as
sleep medications — without the dangerous side effects and recurring high cost of drugs.
When you add LectroFan white noise or electronic fan sounds to your immediate environment, you are using sound masking. Rather than drowning out
the offending sounds, they become "masked" by the frequencies of the white noise or electronic fan signal.
Imagine a dark room and a flashlight switches on — you immediately notice the light source. Next, switch on a lamp… the entire room
illuminates, and the flashlight blends into the light so that you no longer see it. The flashlight has been "masked" by the bright,
room–filling light, and is barely noticed.
Now imagine a room with the constant sound of noisy traffic from a nearby window. You switch on LectroFan and adjust the pitch & volume to
match the offending traffic noise. The traffic noise now blends into the consistent fan/white noise from LectroFan and is neutralized…
creating an ideal environment with more privacy and less distracting noise — a remarkable sleep saver!
Playing music has been known to improve sleep quality, however music does not contain the wide range of frequencies needed to mask intrusive
sounds. Pure white noise contains a much wider spectrum and is therefore more effective overall.
The answer is YES — in a variety of ways! Blocking unwanted noise from your surroundings requires a sound masking device with variable
settings to effectively reduce intruding noise pollution. LectroFan provides 20 varieties: pure white noise — or simulated electronic
fan (a variation of white noise) — each with 10 different pitch settings for a complete spectrum of sound masking coverage.
At home, use LectroFan during naptime for infants or help your children sleep more soundly at night. LectroFan also helps the elderly and those
with insomnia fall asleep. In condos or apartments, LectroFan helps eliminate those hideous neighborly noises — and more. It also aids
those who suffer from tinnitus. Best of all… it's totally drug–free!
LectroFan not only helps you sleep better, it can be used in offices for reducing distracting conversations nearby — or provide an effective
cover for private conversations. Use LectroFan at your desk for better concentration and increased productivity, or as an effective study aid for
students at the dorm — wherever less distracting noise is desired.
Plug it in — use the included USB/AC wall adapter with any wall outlet, or a USB port on computer
Pick your sound
Select Fan Sounds and repeatedly press again to choose each of the following:
Select White Noise and repeatedly press again to choose each of the following:
Adjust the volume
Convenient rocker switch adjusts volume from a whisper to very loud
Use the timer
LectroFan plays continuously until shut off, or until the timer is switched on. LectroFan plays for 60 minutes by pressing the timer
button once. Pressing repeatedly increases playtime in 60–minute intervals
There are many variations of sound machines today. These machines not only cost more, they typically rely on recordings, which repeat in as little
as a few seconds apart. While somewhat effective, these recordings can actually become irritating simply because our minds are very perceptive.
When we hear sounds that briefly repeat
over and over again, the predictability has the opposite effect and keeps us awake rather than deeply relaxed — the foundation of restful sleep.
LectroFan works differently. It plays completely synthesized, non–repeating sounds that do not contain the annoying blips and slight pauses
found on machines using recordings. The result — a totally pure wisp of white noise promoting healthful, rejuvenating sleep!
LectroFan measures 4.4" X 4.4" X 2.2" and weighs less than a pound (13.8 oz). Complete package includes the LectroFan Electronic
Fan and White Noise Machine, dual voltage USB/100-240V AC wall adapter, instruction manual, and warranty.
For extra protection, get the optional LectroFan custom travel case (Item #AS004 available here)
Results guaranteed — order yours today risk free!
LectroFan is compact and perfect for travel, especially in hotels where you never know what sorts of noise intrusions await — so be prepared
and enjoy the journey! It also makes a very thoughtful gift for family, friends, coworkers, students, and travelers alike.
Order yours today totally risk free from RichardSolo with nothing to lose…
except those irritating noises!

Monday 2 July, 2012 - A Toowoomba couple is reeling after discovering they were one of the three Queensland winners in Saturday Gold Lotto's $30 million Mid-Year Megadraw who are now $1.25 million richer!
The woman who purchased the winning ticket from Plaza Circle News in Highfields Plaza Shopping Centre said she did so on a whim, and isn't a regular Gold Lotto player.
"This is just fantastic!" she exclaimed.
"We budget our money very carefully so I only play Gold Lotto when there's a big prize on offer," she said, still in shock over becoming an instant millionaire.
Despite their new financial status, the winning couple won't be splurging their prize money on anything lavish.
"We've been on struggle street for a while and have always watched our spending so I think we'll still shop for specials at the super market; we want this money to last for a long time."
The 18-game Super QuickPick ticket was purchased for $11.90 from Plaza Circle News in Highfields Plaza Shopping Centre and the lucky winner said she's very happy with the return.
"We'll finally be able to buy a new car and pay off our house, but we're not sure what we'll do with the rest of the money yet," she said.
"We'd love to be able to travel to a family reunion with relatives we haven't seen for years; that would be a very special way to celebrate."
Public Relations Executive Zoe Knobel said Golden Casket is still waiting for the holder of an unregistered division one winning entry from Saturday's $30 million Mid-year Megadraw purchased in Toowoomba to contact Golden Casket to claim their prize.
"The entry was not registered to a Winners Circle card, so we have no way of contacting the winner to tell them the amazing news," Ms Knobel said.
"If you purchased an entry in Saturday Gold Lotto's $30 million Mid-year Megadraw draw 3229 from The Lucky Charm Toowoomba in Kmart Plaza we urge you to have your ticket checked at a Golden Casket outlet or online as soon as possible."
Throughout Australia 24 winners shared the $30 million division one prize pool in Saturday Gold Lotto's Midyear Megadraw. Along with three winning tickets sold in Queensland, nine were sold in Victoria, six in New South Wales, four in South Australia and two in Western Australia.
The winning numbers in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 3229 were 40, 37, 30, 33, 32 and 8 with the supplementary numbers 14 and 34. There were also 227 division two winners who took home $8,548.70 each.

Kyle Tolle | Phoenix, Arizona USA | 09/12/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Covered in two parts, each one lasting about fifty minutes each, this PBS Nature series does a fine job of exploring the many facets of these reptiles' lives and leaves very little to the imagination.
Part One: Alligators & Crocodiles
Called the ultimate predators and reigning high on the food chain, alligators and crocodiles are evolutionary marvels in both their longevity and the variety of traits that make them unique.
In this first installment, the origins of these reptiles dating back to prehistoric times and moving forward shows the adaptability and survivability that has allowed them to flourish through history. Known as agile and stealthy hunters who attack from an ambush, plenty of video footage is shown of these animals in action and the images are both impressive and sometimes scary in their own right.
Although much is known about alligators and crocodiles today, they continually inspire fear and dread in many. Despite this fact, it's not difficult to be impressed by their abilities especially since it is shown that they are even more intelligent than we give them credit for. Further information covering distinct behaviors, group communication, and hunting and mating techniques round out this first half of the program.
Part Two: Turtles & Tortoises
Having been in existence for millions of years, turtles and tortoises owe their long life spans in part due to their excellent shell design and survival methods perfected over generations of time.
This second half of the program is a good examination of these reptiles covering such topics as feeding habits, evolutionary history, different types of species and their unique characteristics, mating and reproduction facts, and closing with a rewarding segment on rehabilitation and rescue of many of these threatened animals in the world today.
`Nature: Reptiles' can be best described as thorough in regards to its entire coverage of the subject matter and I found this to be a most impressive part of the documentary. As far as being educational and interesting, this program scores high marks in those respects also. Excellent camera work and quality narration compliment this feature from start to finish and I recommended this great PBS production to everyone.

Mellanox this week announced new HDR InfiniBand switches, adapter cards, and cables with 200Gbps throughput. The company is targeting high-performance computing and machine learning use cases with the products.
The new Quantum switch line includes a 1U device that supports either 40 ports of 200Gbps HDR InfiniBand or 80 ports of 100Gbps HDR, for a total switch throughput of 16Tbits per second. Mellanox says the Quantum switch has just 90ns latency.
A modular version of the switch will also be released. This modular version will start at 200 ports and extend up to 800 ports of 200Gbps. "It's a monster," said Gilad Shainer, VP of marketing at Mellanox.
The new switch also includes in-network compute capabilities, enabling it to run basic data reduction and data aggregation algorithms on data as the data moves across the switch fabric. The algorithms are implemented on the switch ASIC itself, so data doesn't have to be loaded into and out of a CPU for processing.
Shainer says the in-network compute process won't affect the switch's latency.
New Adapters
As mentioned, Mellanox also announced a new adapter, the ConnectX-6, which supports both 200Gbps InfiniBand and Ethernet.
The adapter supports PCIe Gen3 and Gen4 (32 lanes and 16 lanes respectively). Mellanox says it can handle 200 million messages per second with 0.6 microsecond latency.
The adapter offers a variety of in-network computing modules to offload tasks that would otherwise have to be handled by a CPU, including networking functions, encryption and decryption, RDMA, and NVMe over Fabric storage.

Colorado, Montana, Ohio, Washington and Oregon have announced their increases, while Arizona, Florida and Vermont are expected to announce theirs within weeks. These eight states have laws that require them to adjust minimum wages to the cost of living. Four more states, California, Maryland, Illinois and Massachusetts, have introduced bills that might add a cost of living adjustment to their minimum wage. The federal rate is $7.25 an hour, and isn't pegged to inflation; ten states besides the above have minimum wages higher than the federal. Share http://adweek.it/2l4IL2O copy Adweek Adweek

BALTIMORE - Having been told he might be catching his first
major-league game, Ryan Lavarnway did some extra homework on Monday
night at the team hotel. He studied as many Baltimore hitters as he
could. He studied Erik Bedard and his repertoire. He wanted to be
sure he was prepared to contribute as best he could if called
Lavarnway contributed, all right. The 24-year-old catcher, the
best power hitter in the Red Sox minor-league system all season
long, hit his first two career home runs and guided four pitchers
through nine occasionally rocky innings to lead the Red Sox to a
dramatic 8-7 win over the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards.
With the Tampa Bay Rays winning as well, the American League
wildcard remains tied headed into the final day of the regular
"It's really good for baseball," Red Sox manager Terry Francona
said. "It's not so good for my stomach."
"This is what you dream about as a kid," Lavarnway said. "It's
one game, win or lose, win or go home. It's a playoff atmosphere
even though it's still the regular season. We're going to throw our
best guys out there and play to win."
Lavarnway looked like one of the best guys out there on Tuesday.
He hadn't played much since his most recent call-up, starting one
game as the designated hitter and pinch-hitting just a handful of
times. But injuries to Jason Varitek (knee) and Jarrod
Saltalamacchia (collarbone) forced Lavarnway into the lineup behind
the plate Tuesday for the first time in his career.
His first priority was to catch Erik Bedard - no small task,
since his defense was the only reason it took him as long as it did
to get to the major leagues. Bedard lasted just 3 1/3 innings,
striking out six but walking three and allowing three runs - two on
a Matt Wieters home run. But Alfredo Aceves threw 3 2/3 terrific
innings of relief to bridge to Daniel Bard and Jonathan
Jacoby Ellsbury gave the Red Sox a third-inning lead with a
two-run home run, his fourth in his last four games and his 32nd of
the season.
Lavarnway - who had hit 32 home runs at Pawtucket and Double-A
Portland - came up with runners on first and third in the fourth
inning. He worked the count like a seasoned veteran and then
launched a fastball into the night.
Marco Scutaro followed a Carl Crawford triple with a two-run
home run in the sixth inning, continuing a torrid run in which he's
hit .381 with a .431 on-base percentage and .567 slugging
percentage since the Red Sox collapse began.
Lavarnway hit his second home run of the game - and of his
career - in the eighth inning.
He had to do his best work, however, with Papelbon in the ninth
"I got booed a couple of times for walking out to the mound,"
Lavarnway said with a smile, "but I wanted to make sure we were on
the same page. It was a big spot."
Bard already had allowed a pair of runs to score to allow the
Orioles to pull within two. Papelbon allowed a ringing single to
left field off the bat of J.J. Hardy to lead off the inning, and it
got even more difficult from there. Nick Markakis worked an
11-pitch at-bat before grounding out, and Vladimir Guerrero bounced
a single through the left side to move Hardy to third.
When Matt Wieters squibbed a grounder toward first base, it
looked for a second like no one would get there. Lavarnway got
there and threw him out.
One batter later, after another long at-bat, Adam Jones grounded
out to end it.
"Besides what he did offensively, I thought he ran the game and
I thought he had a lot of poise," Francona said. "That was one of
the more exciting things to watch. I know we've seen a lot of
interesting things here over the years, but that was right near the

After a mastectomy, many women choose to get breast implants. They help restore the psychological sense of being female as well as help clothing fit better, especially items that are fitted. Implants come in different diameters. Choose the diameter that fits your skeleton best. Implants come in different sizes, similar to cup sizes, but they are labeled according to how much fluid they can hold. The plastic surgeon should have some samples to see.
One type of implant is a saline implant. It has a clear silicone shell that looks like a balloon and is filled with a sterile saline solution (salt water).
Silicone implants are the other option. For several years they were off the market because of public concerns that the silicone gel inside might leak and cause immune system problems. Subsequent studies have shown that silicone gel implants do not increase the risk of immune system problems and so they are once again available.
There are two approaches to breast reconstruction:
- One-Stage breast reconstruction can be done right after the mastectomy when the skin is preserved. After the surgeon removes the breast tissue, a plastic surgeon steps in and places the implant where the breast tissue used to be.
- In Two-Stage reconstruction, the skin and chest wall are tight and flat after the mastectomy. First, a deflated "tissue expander" is put into place. Think of it as a temporary implant. It's job is to slowly stretch the skin, making it ready to receive the permanent implant. The expander has a tiny valve that the surgeon injects a little bit of saline solution into during several visits over time. Once the skin over the breast area has stretched enough, there is a second surgery to remove the expander and put in the permanent implant. Some expanders can be left in place as the final implant. Two-Stage reconstruction also allows for the option of waiting until after radiation treatment to begin reconstruction.
Things you should know about implants:
- Implants may not last a lifetime. They usually come with a "warranty" for a certain number of years but might need replacing in the future. That means surgery again.
- There might be complications from any surgery such as scarring, pain and infection.
- Contact sports and activities are no longer allowed because a blow to the chest can cause a break or leak to the implant.
- Capsular contracture (hard scar tissue around the implant) might occur. The plastic surgeon will show the patient massage techniques to counteract this during the healing process but it's not a 100% guarantee. Only a few people have this problem.
- The end result might not be the "beautiful breasts" that one dreams of. It's a reconstruction, not a recreation.
A word about nipples- believe it or not, new nipples/areolas can be tattooed on. Yes, the surgeon can do this! There is a little bit of post-operative care but it's easy.

Bosire fights to keep his job
Tuesday May 1 2012
Court of Appeal judge Samuel Bosire, who was sacked last week, has appealed against the decision.
He has written to the Judges and Magistrates Vetting Board saying that he was dissatisfied with the decision.
The judge, who was declared unfit alongside three colleagues, has listed 16 grounds to support his case. (READ: Shock as top judges sacked from Bench)
In a letter through lawyer James Ochieng Oduol, Justice Bosire says he has been unfairly condemned.
"The honourable Justice of Appeal Samuel Elkana Onderi Bosire submits that he has been unfairly condemned and that the determination of the Judges and Magistrates Vetting Board dated April 25, 2012 should be reviewed," the judge says.
He accuses the Board of failing to notify him of two complaints within sufficient time as provided for in the Vetting Act.
The complaints are on the manner in which he handled the Goldenberg Commission of Inquiry in 2004 and the alleged condoning of abuses of court martial subjects in 1983. (READ: How ego fight claimed Bosire, Nyamu careers)
The Board decided that Justice Bosire, as the chairman of the Goldenberg Commission, ignored a High Court order to summon retired President Daniel Moi, Prof George Saitoti, Mr Musalia Mudavadi and Mr Nicholas Biwott as witnesses.
Justice Bosire says the board ambushed him with the two complaints towards the end of the interview.
He says he was not notified of the complaint that he acted in defiance of a court order requiring him to summon senior government officials to appear before the inquiry as required by Section 19 (4) of the Vetting Act.
He was also not given enough time on the complaint that he condoned torture of suspects before the court martials in 1983.
The section says the notice to the judicial officer shall include a summary of complaints, if any, against the judge or magistrate.
The alleged defiance of the court order was not contained in the notice of complaints dated March 14 which was served on Justice Bosire.
"The honourable judge was ambushed with the said complaint at the tail-end of the interview and in violation of the mandatory rules of natural justice spelled out in section 19(4) of the Act.
Justice Bosire argues that the Board was oblivious and ignored the fact that the people who had been named in the court order were already parties adversely mentioned in the proceedings.
The other three judges - Riaga Omollo, Joseph Nyamu and Emmanuel O'Kubasu -are yet to seek a review before the Board. The deadline for seeking the review is Thursday.

OMG, the Oxford English Dictionary has announced its latest updates!
The authoritative reference book -- the final word on words -- has announced that it has updated its online edition with 1,900 revisions and adds from across the dictionary. New additions include such digitally-driven abbreviations such as OMG -- Internet shorthand for "Oh my God'" or "Oh my Gosh" -- LOL, "laughing out loud"; IMHO "in my humble opinion"; and BFF, "best friends forever."
One might be tempted to exclaim WTF? (And if you don't know what that stands for, you can look it up: it was included in the 2009 updates.)
"Technology has been one of the biggest drivers of new vocabulary for centuries," Jesse Sheidlower, editor at large for the O.E.D., told ABC News.
"The proportion of words that entered the English language from 1750 to 1760 is almost exactly the same as words that entered the language from 1950 to 1960," he added. "You look around and you have new laptops and new cell phones today. One hundred fifty years ago we had new trains and new steam engines."
Also included in the updates is a new usage of an old word: heart. Taken from the symbol <3, to "heart" something is to love it. (Suggested usage: "I heart the fact that this is in the O.E.D.") The symbol itself, however, did not make it into the dictionary, as reported elsewhere.
Other words that are new to the dictionary are food-based slang, such as "flat white" -- a type of coffee drink -- and the expression "muffin top," an evocative description for the "protuberance of flesh above the waistband of a tight pair of trousers."
Popular culture, explained Sheidlower, is another major driver of new vocabulary. But the dictionary's editors insist they are hardly indiscriminate. Once a word makes it in, it is never removed even if it becomes antiquated -- the purpose of the O.E.D. is to exist as a comprehensive, living history of the language.
"If we really thought a word would vanish, we'd hold off [including it] for a while," said Sheidlower. "Year after year there are tons of new Internet terms -- slang or terms from text messaging -- that we may not use for more than a few months."
"Meep," Yes; "Meh," Maybe Later
So don't expect to see "Rickrolling" or "meh" in the current batch of updates, for example. But don't rule them out for good either, said Sheidlower.
The O.E.D. says it adds thousands of words a year. And as a unique sign of our texty, Twittery times, 2011 seems especially heavy on "initialisms," or abbreviations consisting of the initial letters of a name or expression. Also included were FYI ("for your information"), TMI ("too much information") and WAG ("wives and girlfriends").
Interestingly, OMG, while commonly associated with the Internet era, has in fact been around for a lot longer: The first confirmed use was in a letter dated 1917. More recently, we can "ego-surf" (search for your own name online), but you might be dismayed by the results if you're primarily associated with a "dot bomb," or a failed Internet company.
"We always have more words to put in than we have time to," said Sheidlower. The current crop, for example, includes "party-crasher," which Sheidlower said dates to the 1920s, and "meep," the sound the Roadrunner makes -- which has actually appeared as far back in literature as H.P. Lovecraft, "the least-Roadrunner author you can imagine," said Sheidlower.
"La-la land" can refer either to Los Angeles, or to a state of being out of touch with reality. Or both. And that's not just "smack talk" (boastful or insulting banter), surely a charge we'd never level at a venerable dictionary that so earnestly strives to "drill-down" (yep, also a new update) on our language.
For a more complete list of new and updated words, check out the O.E.D. online.

Ticking minutes...
I am here to share a quick little chair update/makeover but I had every intention of blogging on a completely different topic for the past five days. Life got in the way (in a good way) and I ended up with about a dozen topics and half-written posts inside my brain but no time to stop and put them together. I sat down and laid out my calendar for the next two and a half weeks until school is finished and realized that I have "patches of time" here and there for the next few weeks, and it's gonna be wild. I have said "yes" and accidentally over-committed myself all over the place. I never mean to do that, but with these two very active kiddos and the knowledge that this time is so short, I don't want to miss out on anything. If I can be there, I want to be there even if it means a jam-packed month. I know that I'm meant to savor this moment in time because some day (all too soon) my house will be really quiet and I'll be wondering what to do with the rest of my life. I am desperate to make these ticking minutes count.
I was listening to a man talk about marriage and child rearing the other day. He said that often the years between about the 10 year anniversaries and the 25 year anniversaries are your memory making years. He was encouraging us in that "category" to say "yes," let yourself drop into bed exhausted at night, do, go, and be in those moments. He said you will take more vacations, take more pictures, and make more memories with kiddos in these years than any others. I absolutely loved that. And I do want to savor these moments, no matter how fast they pass!!
I kept waiting because I knew exactly the style of chair I wanted for my office/studio space. I kept looking and looking until one day all my waiting paid off and I found it! I dragged it's ugly-ish (okay it wasn't so bad) self home and treated it to a chic little makeover. Now I love it to pieces.
I used paint that I had on hand in a random color that I mixed from three half empty cans, and an old shower curtain that I got from Target several years ago when our house was always on the market. (I'm pretty sure they still carry it. Waste not, want not.) I may never part with it. (However, I may paint and recover it 482 more times throughout the years. And I reserve the right to move it 658 other places in my home.)
I thought you'd appreciate a "real life" photo too. This table gets used for many things, baby. (I mean.. now that I have my own chair to sit in again.)
Now I'm off to piece out the upcoming week. It's going to be busy but I think my perspective on savoring those fleeting moments with my kiddos is good. It took the stress of a "crazy week" right off my plate and helped me look at it as a very "full week." What stage of life are you in? And do you have any encouragement for those doing life in a stage you've already passed through? I love hearing your thoughts!

Hi Sasha,ReplyDelete
You are not only Lemonade Makin Mama - but you are a Smart Mama to spend this time with your kiddos and manage your time so it doesn't manage you. I think most mamas have moments as their children are growing that they overcommit and need to reevaluate their time or perish.
I thing the chair makeover is perfect and is a huge improvement from what i remember from an earlier picture at your sewing machine.
Debbie @ Deliciously Inspired
You did an amazing job on the chair. Love it. Did you buy the chair at the store or was it a thrift find.ReplyDeleteReplies
hey girl. i thrifted it from a consignment. soooo fun!Delete
Beautiful job! You never cease to amaze me, God bless you & yours Sasha:-)ReplyDelete
Girl, you got skills!ReplyDelete
Your comment about the memory-making years are in between years 10 and 25 really rings true. My hubby and I just celebrated our 11th anniversary and our three children are 4,7 and 8. We are JUST finding that they, 9 times out of 10, can handle any situation we can throw at them. Because of that we are doing more things, seeing more things and living in the moment instead of planning diaper change and nap times. The baby-making years were very exciting and I'll cherish those times forever. But now we are REALLY enjoying these "maintenance" years. The family is made and done, but the adventures are just beginning.ReplyDeleteReplies
i love that "maintenence years"Delete
LOVE the chair and your 'office' area. What kind of sewing machine do you have? I need a good portable one.ReplyDeleteReplies
I've got my grandma's old Bernina. It's an amazing machine... apparently very spendy. :)Delete
Gorgeous make over girl. Love your bag too. I used to have one like that. Wondering what I did with it.ReplyDelete
I am loving that sassy fabric you used on the chair redo. It looks riht at home in your mini studio area. You have no idea how much that chalkboard and bucket with the yellow flowers make me smile. Glad to see it making an appearance on the blog again. :)ReplyDelete
Love when you share your heart. You hit it right on the nail about the time flying with the hoodlums.
My daughter is in her second year of college and my son will start his freshman year in the fall. So, we are fast approaching the empty nest stage. All I have ever known was being a mom. The kids have been at my side for many years. It's going to feel weird not having either one of them at home.
We homeschooled our kids and I would never trade that time in for anything. We also are a very tight knit family. We love family car trips, vacations and family fun night. Don't get me wrong, I know we need to let them fly. We have layed the foundation and now we need to let them fly...which also has been hard for me to do. When you are mom and have been in charge of what they do and where they go for so long, it's hard to change roles. It comes with time.
Enjoy the hard times and the good times with your hoodlums. Use the one on one time for teachable moments and quality conversations. Love on them and enjoy all the baseball games and the dance recitals because you will blink and it will all be over way too soon.
Hugs to you! Have a great week!
HOW DO YOU DOOOOOOO IIIIIIIT???!!!ReplyDelete
I don't mean to yell, but...you are pretty amazing. I'm wondering if I can use hot glue and staples to recover our sofa...

. . . your style.
. . . and YOU.

Sasha, I just spent the weekend with my girl at her dance recital. Most of the time I was watching her - teary eyed and in awe of the beautiful young lady she is becoming. Yes, I too know that this time goes quickly. I am in the same stage of life as you and I wish I could stop time. We just have to stay present and have fun with our kiddos. Your home is amazing. I love everything about it. I wish you would come and help me decorate my home. I love to move stuff around too. The chair is fabulous - just like you. Be blessed, SusanReplyDelete
You're right to savor each moment. Too soon they'll be gone. I'm watching my boy grow up (and past me) right before my eyes. Aren't we blessed to be here to experience it-the good, the bad and the ugly. A good friend of mine lost her mom when she was only 9 and I can't imagine how hard that must have been. Enjoy, Momma!ReplyDelete
Love this perspective - and this is where I'm at right now! In fact, our 15th anniversary is in 3 days. My boys are 10 & 8 and the time is going so fast! I want to right there in the middle of where they are - soaking up every minute! :-)ReplyDelete
It turned out great, Sasha!ReplyDelete
I absolutely LOVE that fabric print.
My shower curtain is on my summer project list...gotta get something in there that I love....this post reminded me that I have some navy and white ticking fabric that I used for panels YEARS ago in Seth's room. I think I might still have it...maybe IT could be my new shower curtain??
You and I both know that I'll have to just get rid of that shower curtain that I have up now...OR maybe I could make it into really big pillows for Lydia's floor? She has all those colors in her room?? I'm having all sorts of ideas while commenting here this morning. :)Replies
use that ticking!!! that would be fabulous!!Delete
What I'm trying to remind myself of as we are here, there, and everywhere during baseball season, and end of school season is "this is just a season" and "in 15 years I'll miss this". I just try to enjoy the day and what it brings even with all its busyness. My mantra for months now has been "this is just a season".ReplyDeleteReplies
I am saying the SAME thing... just a season. :)Delete
Love your chair! It looks so cute in your little studio space. :) My oldest is only 7 and my youngest is a little bun-in-the-oven so I can't really relate to your busyness yet. I do find us making more and more memories as the kids get older and we are able to do more and play more games together! Have a happy busy week!ReplyDelete
Your chair is perfect! Glad you waited. Now...as the Mom who just watched her oldest baby accept his high school diploma, I can tell you that savoring the moments....especially in the years now... is key to everything. You are bound to overextend yourself as the kids get involved in more things and that is okay, but continue to sit down and figure out how to find pockets of time to soak your kids up. It truly does pass quickly. Sniffle...sniffle.... :-) Looking back at the time with my son, I know I could have done better...but hindsight is 20/20...I have no major regrets and he is a great young man. You are doing a terrific job, Sasha!ReplyDelete
Love your chair makeover!! I just love the grey and yellow color scheme. :) I am an empty nester before grandchildren so this is probably the quietest and least committed season of my life and I have to admit after all the years of running, doing, and going with my two children I am loving this season!! But all the time I spent with my children was so worth it! I will never regret it. So, over commit, go and do while their young but be sure to leave plenty of time and energy for your husband too!! ;)ReplyDeleteReplies
that is really nice to hear... I keep thinking I'm going to wallow in the quiet... nice to think that it may be a blessed break. :)Delete
This statement is the most profound thing I've come across while mothering my kiddos: WHEN RAISING CHILDREN, THE DAYS ARE LONG BUT THE YEARS ARE SHORT. That could not be more true.ReplyDelete
I look back at the toddler days, when I was exhausted from mothering, thinking the days would never end, the pulling on my legs while I was fixing dinner was going to send me over the edge, I would never get a full night's sleep, etc; then, boom....my son is graduating from high school.
I'm so thankful that I caught wind of this statement while still in the midst of the physical-need part of parenting. We're now in the midst of emotional-need parenting (we're physically exhausted when the children are young. We're mentally exhausted as they get older).
My encouragement echoes the comments in your post.
Be present.
Pray for and with your children.
Don't overextend yourself so much that you miss out on your own kids. (I learned say no to chaperoning field trips. I would follow the bus, pay my own admission fee to wherever they were going, and be free to spend my time with my child instead of being responsible for a group of 5 - 8 kids. I was open to having any other kids with us, but I didn't have the obligation of tending to them -- sounds a little selfish, but sometimes you have to be selfish when it comes to protecting your time with your kids).
Be in tune to what they like and learn to like it, too. (you may not be a baseball fan, but if your son plays, learn to love it and enjoy conversations with him about it).
Go with the flow/Be flexible. Dinners may not be able to be had around the table every night. Big deal; pack some fruit and sandwiches and spread out a blanket at the soccer field and make that your table for the night.
Mee their friends and open your home to them. Our house was the place to hang out (still is). Have board games, movies, snacks, etc available at all times. I would rather have a house full of kids watching a movie then have them hanging out at the mall, etc. We are always prepared and available for our kids and their friends.
Have fun and laugh with your children. Life is short, let's be happy while we're in it!
Enjoy your children.
My oldest is a sophmore in college and my youngest is a freshman in high school. I don't claim to have all the answers, but just offer some suggestions from experience.Replies
love this great list!Delete
Oh yes - savor every moment. I have been where you are with the crazy schedules of two very active kids. There were times that they both had ball games on the same night in different towns. My husband I very often would have to "divide and conquer"...he going one way and me the other. It is so important to be there for your kids. Our children are now grown - in fact our son leaves for Marine boot camp in a month - I cherish the memories of those crazy teenage years and wouldn't change a thing!ReplyDelete
Amazing chair, Sasha. Everything you make is lovely. You have such a gift; don't forget it. It's so hard to keep time set aside to be creative. But I so think it is important. It all reflects Him, too, as our Creator. I'll be chugging right along with you. When I'm praying for strength cause I'm tired, I'll ask The Lord to give you some, too. Love ya!ReplyDelete
Love the chair, of course. My oldest is finishing elementary school Friday. She will be in junior high school (6th grade where we are) next year, and it's KEEELING me! I am teary-eyed all.of.the.time. I told God this morning I just can't get over how fast time goes by. My only hope is that our children understand how much we love them, but more importantly how much God loves them and desires a relationship with them. <3ReplyDelete
That's a very classy chair you've made yourself. It looks so cute with your desk and the lovely things on it. I like your yellow and grey notebook. I would definitely say make the most of these years, don't sit around, get out there and do stuff... because all too soon your once teeny children are all grown up and doing their own thing and life becomes a bit different. It's still happy. Just different and you find you have more time to spend hours reading other people's blogs, look at the zillions of photos you took and you actually keep on top of laundry and cleaning. But you know what, my lovely all-grown-up daughter Lauren told me recently that she was so glad I was home all the time and that we did lots of things and went lots of places. Now that makes you a very happy mummy when you hear something like that! Enjoy your week :)ReplyDeleteReplies
i love hearing you say "mum" and "mummy." (We are going to England in two years for a 20th celebration and I just told Adrain and I wanted to meet you! LOL)Delete
It's very chic! Your so talented I say there is nothing you can't do nothing! And I see that pencil holder very cute :}ReplyDelete

VISA: View CoreCommerce on the List Here
Our most recent annual PCI-DSS validation was completed by Trustwave March 11, 2014. You can download the Corecommerce AOC.
Becoming PCI-DSS compliant is both time consuming and very expensive. It requires a third-party auditor that is certified by Visa/MasterCard to review both your physical security, as well as perform penetration testing on the software itself to ensure hackers can't exploit vulnerabilities to gain access to sensitive credit card information. Depending on the type of problems the auditor finds, it can take 3-9 months to pass the rigorous guidelines that are set forth by the PCI Security Standards Council.
High-status cases concerning big corporations have hit the headlines in the last couple of years. The Payment Card Industry has threatened huge fines against some larger merchants of up to $25,000 per month until compliance is obtained. In the high-profile case of TJX (owner of T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Home Goods and A.J. Wright retail chains), the company reported spending $202 million because of the PCI violation that compromised the cardholder account information of as many as 40 million customers. The money is being spent to handle more 20 lawsuits brought against it by banks and consumers in the U.S. and Canada and to pay settlements with credit-card associations. Currently only a few select shopping cart providers are PCI-DSS Compliant.
CoreCommerce is PCI compliant, you can download the paperwork you need to submit to your credit card processor here.

So far, if you're following the examples, we've created a new archive
and a
project within that archive, and we've imported
the initial version of
into the archive.
The most common task you're likely to perform as a programming using a revision control system is to commit a set of changes. In this chapter, we'll look at the most basic way that that works.
If you look at our
sources, you might notice a spelling
error and newline bug:
% cat hw.c #include <stdio.h> void hello_world (void) { (void)printf ("hello warld"); }
Clearly, we meant to say
hello world
, not
hello warld
and, if
we're going to be conventional, we probably wanted a newline at the
end of the message. So, let's fix those bugs now.
Free advice is worth what you pay for it. -- anonymous.
Here's the plan for fixing these bugs: We'll change the source to fix
the bugs. Then we'll ask
to record the changes need to fix the
bugs in the archive. That second step will create a new revision
in the archive.
As we noted earlier, whenever you create a new revision, you need to provide a log message for that revision (see Making the First Log File).
The particular bugs we're about to fix in our toy example are quite trivial -- but in a real world situation, they would likely be more complicated. You have a choice: you can either wait until all the changes are done to write the log message describing your changes, or you can write the log message as you go along.
Here's the free advice: write the log message as you go along. In
other words, take notes as you hack. In terms of
that means to start the bug fix process with:
% cd ~/wd/hello-world tla make-log ++firstname.lastname@example.com
Then edit your new log file so that it reads:
Summary: Fix bugs in the "hello world" string Keywords:
thus explains what you intend to do with the upcoming
changes. As you work, you can fill in the body of the log message.
Pretending that these bugs are more complicated than they actually are, here's how the work might go:
Fix the spelling error. Change
Update the log message. Add a note to the log file:
Summary: Fix bugs in the "hello world" string Keywords: Spell "world" correctly (not "warld").
Fix the newline error. Add a newline to the message.
Update the log message again. Add a note to the log file:
Summary: Fix bugs in the "hello world" string Keywords: Spell "world" correctly (not "warld"). Add a newline to the hello world message.
So you've just worked long and hard on these complex bug fixes. Wouldn't it be a good idea to review your work once more before publishing it?
No problem,
can help:
tla changes --diffs [....] *** patched regular files **** ./hw.c [....] @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ void hello_world (void) { - (void)printf ("hello warld"); + (void)printf ("hello world\n"); } [....]
Aha! Now we know. It's time to record that change in the archive.
So now let's record those changes in the archive.
If you didn't take our free advice (see
Some Free Advice About Log
), now is the time to create a log message (hint:
To save your changes in the archive, simply:
% tla commit [....]
After the
completes, there is a new revision in the archive:
% tla revisions hello-world--mainline--0.1 base-0 patch-1
or in more detail:
% tla revisions --summary hello-world--mainline--0.1 base-0 initial import patch-1 Fix bugs in the "hello world" string
Our project tree patch log has been similarly updated:
% tla logs hello-world--mainline--0.1 base-0 patch-1 % tla logs --summary hello-world--mainline--0.1 base-0 initial import patch-1 Fix bugs in the "hello world" string
What does
do to an archive?
# cd to the directory for the version we are working # on: # % cd ~/{archives} % cd 2003-example/ % cd hello-world/ % cd hello-world--mainline/ % cd hello-world--mainline--0.1/ % ls % ls +version-lock =README base-0 patch-1
subdirectory is new:
% cd patch-1 % ls +revision-lock hello-world--mainline--0.1--patch-1.patches.tar.gz log
As usual, the log file is the log file you wrote, with some extra headers added:
% cat log Revision: hello-world--mainline--0.1--patch-1 Archive: firstname.lastname@example.com Creator: Tom (testing) Lord <email@example.com> Date: Mon Jan 27 22:26:13 PST 2003 Standard-date: 2003-01-28 06:26:13 GMT Summary: Fix bugs in the "hello world" string Keywords: New-files: \ {arch}/hello-world/ [....] /patch-log/patch-1 Modified-files: hw.c New-patches: \ firstname.lastname@example.com/hello-world--mainline--0.1--patch-1 Spell "world" correctly (not "warld"). Add a newline to the hello world message.
file is something called a changeset. It
describes the changes you made as differences between the
revision and the
revision. You'll learn more about the
nature of changesets in later chapters. For now, you can think of a
changeset as similar to the output of
diff -r
if used to compare
revision before your recent changes, with that same tree
after your recent changes (or, in the words of one
user: a
"patch set on steroids").
In the project tree:
% cd ~/wd/hello-world
the commit command had two effects. First, it added a log file under
. Second, it modified
to contain a cached copy of the
revision instead of the

I'd like for you to think of one common thing as I go through my presentation tonight, and that is: What kind of community do we want to live in? What comprises that community and how do we interact with it and what are the contributions that we can make? I think those are the central questions for most American communities today.

Not only do we as politicians now say we are in this together, The EPA just announced we're in this together regarding attainment. The only attainment area up until last year was Gaston County and Mecklenburg County. That was it. We had our measuring things and the EPA would come down and say, "You're over. You can no longer build roads, Charlotte." They did that three years ago. They did that to Atlanta and cut everything off for a long time until the governor took over all regional planning.

Today we added a new feature to allow website owners to browse all products and prices on their store including the option of overwriting selling prices on single items. The global markup (discount) option can still be used, however changing prices at the item level will supersede the global markup discount option.
To access this new feature please login to your website as the store owner and go to the menu PRICING & PAYMENTS => PRICE OVERWRITE.
This new admin page can be used to quickly view a list of all your products along with your wholesale cost, and the selling price and shipping cost from your site.
You can also edit prices of items individually which can be useful if you wish to have a better control of pricing after you have applied a global markup.

That's me
The stages of drawing the first oil painting are still in my memory; I was twelve when I used matches instead of the brush which I could not afford, and some diesel which I took from the heater in our old house in Bab Touma Quarter, in the old part of Damascus.
The huge amount of death which surrounded me taught me how to see life from various angles, and to live its details passionately; this life which I assimilate it to a plane which takes off one time only, and lands for a first and last time; those who are on board should live the flight passionately and watch the view from every window.
The pen, as the brush, has accompanied me in this flight, and I used to play with and by them along with the words and colors, create tales from my imagination which become paintings, short stories and poems. The stories which I have thrown are much more the ones I have published, and the paintings which I have given are also much more than what I have kept.
The wall of our old house occupied my thoughts; wood, mud and the ancient tales piled on its roof were decoded and revealed by me until they appeared as texts, stories, paintings and artistic projects; from A Wall Grows Near Me (as a text and an exhibition) to The Memory of Time on Space "the wall"; and from A Painting on Every Wall (an artistic project initiative) to The Syrian Mural (still working on it).
I have known the people's insides through their eyes, and learnt from women much more than men. My mother is the one who nourished me with strength and will, and my brother became a real father to me, so I promised that everything I will earn will be to cheer them.
Immigrations and living abroad taught me how to declare a war of love on the extra hatred in the world in order to preserve my humanity, and I have done so.
In the first day of 2011, before revolutions started in the Arab World, I gave a love letter to the whole world in an artistic initiative entitled A Painting on Every Wall. I devoted the first month to receive the requests from whom wish to get a painting as a gift of the new year. "What is the motive?" some asked, and I replied, "Love, only." Back then I shouted, "O World, I love you in all your details!"
And when someone asked me, in the autumn of 2012, "What happened to The Syrian Mural, your painting which you started to draw during the revolution?" I replied, "It was hit by a shell, like all the Syrian walls, and I am mending it now."
With all what was left of strength, I will continue the war of love which I started before the plane landed.

Houghton Regis town centre is just a short walk away and includes a Morrison's supermarket, plus a range of shops and services for everyday needs, along with pubs and places to eat and a leisure centre with a swimming pool.
There's an extensive selection of shops and leisure opportunities in nearby Dunstable and Luton, plus excellent transport links further afield via the A5 and the M1, Luton railway station and London Luton Airport.
Families will appreciate there's plenty of choice when it comes to schooling as there are no fewer than three primary schools within walking distance, plus a range of secondary schools nearby in Houghton Regis and Dunstable.
For great days out for all the family to enjoy, there's plenty to do within easy reach, including the beautiful open spaces of Dunstable Downs, Whipsnade Zoo, seven miles away, and Woburn Safari Park (12 miles).
We were really impressed by Regent's Place and were attracted to the 'Ashton' as we wanted a bigger place that was good value for money.
"The best aspects of the house are the top floor which is dedicated to the spacious master bedroom and the driveway, which is absolutely massive. It's really attractive and provides enough space for both my van and Sharon's car. The other two bedrooms are a good size as well, and they're really handy for when we have guests staying over.
"We're very happy with the location of the house within the development – we could not have picked a nicer cul-de-sac, so we're extremely pleased with our decision. The neighbours have been fantastic.
"The staff in the sales office were great and so friendly throughout the whole process, and they were a big help in finding the right property for us.
"The entire buying process was very straightforward and we were kept well informed of what was happening throughout by Taylor Wimpey. It's brilliant to have bought a house that has given us more for our money.
"We really like how well placed the development is for us, as there are lots of good amenities close by like shops and restaurants.
"I own a catering business based in London, but I am often travelling all over, so I feel like I'm in a really good position in order to do that. Sharon is the manager of a betting shop in Potters Bar which is about a 40-minute drive away, but we're close to the M1 and the A5 so she's happy with the commute. We're also near both Luton and Milton Keynes, which we visited the other day as it's great for shopping.
"We'd like to say a big thank you to Taylor Wimpey for all their help and guidance. Janine in the office has been great and we're really grateful for all that she's done as we know that she has a lot on her plate!"
Richard Jackson and Sharon Elkin, residents at Regent's Place

Stats Canada: Business Dynamics Measures released
On June 30, 2015, Statistics Canada released "Business and employment dynamics data at the national level, 2013".
The report includes a series of charts detailing the number of private sector businesses in Canada from 2009 to 2013, how many businesses were formed and how many disappeared. In 2013, there were 1,090,500 private sector businesses in Canada - an increase of almost 8,000 over 2012.
The numbers are also broken down by industry classification and contribution and destruction of employment creation.
Retail Trade (16.3%), Manufacturing (13.1%) and Accommodation and Food Services (10.1%) made up the largest share of the Canadian economy in 2013.
The industry to contribute the most to employment creation was Construction at 13.3%, with Retail Trade second and Accommodation and Food Services third.
Interestingly, those industries also contributed the most to employment destruction.
