Command Line Snippet (from Scott Hanselman of course!)
So I'm watching yet another great Hanselman webcast, and he casually mentions that if you hit 'F7' in a command prompt window (cmd.exe), you get a history list of all your commands...wait a minute rewind that! I knew about the history list and the up/down cursor keys (as I'm assuming everyone does right?), but 'F7'? And what do you know, the folks responsible for PowerShell have also included it!

We love a burst of seasonal food photography just before the end of the year when the most can be made of the festivities and tailoring a shoot to fit. A bit of Santa here, snow there, reds and whites, presents, a shoot for Christmas in November and December creates so much opportunity.
Second-shooter Tony and I took the train from London to Norwich on a beautiful brisk winter morning – the kind of morning you like in the winter and don't mind freezing your nips off for. It was early enough that we saw the sun come up and pierce the high-rises as we tracked-it out of East London. Our task today was to create a series of product shots for a wonderful little brand run by Laura Cotton. On this occasion, we had the luxury of shooting in a closed pub in a small village, closed especially for us to create imagery around her gourmet chocolate stirrers. We had all we needed – plenty of chocolate, some very willing models, and a bit of caffeine to get us going.
We wanted to make the most of the light and the location, so we gave everything a bit of a cosy 'scandi' feel with the framing and lighting, on some occasions just boosting the available light with portable flash. The one thing you'll get to understand about us is that we don't just settle for static product shots – we're always looking for a way to introduce a lifestyle feel, and even if it means breaking some brand guidelines (we didn't just admit to that…) we'll want to grab something different. After all, if you want to catch someone's eye when they're furiously scrolling their Instagram feed, you've got to be brave.
By the end of the shoot, we'd used the fireplace, dusty old books and every angle on our inspiration list to complete a great variety of food photography.
"I cannot recommend Steven, Lauren and the team enough. Fantastic images and customer service, they are so passionate about what they do. The images have transformed the brand image for my business and I'll definitely be booking another shoot soon!" – Laura Cotton, Owner, Cocoa Delicious

Earth Day is around the corner and what better way to celebrate than to commit to a green spring clean? Just like we discussed at our second workshop, many products we use to clean our homes are toxic and can make the inside of our homes less healthy. Using natural cleaning products will reduce the toxins in your home. They can improve your indoor air quality by decreasing exposure to toxic chemicals and fumes. Natural cleaning products will also help our overall environment by decreasing the amount of chemicals that are released into our soil, water, and air. Through the use of green cleaning products, we are moving towards a more eco-friendly, healthier way of living for everyone. Be wary of products that do not disclose all of their ingredients. On personal care and household products, the use of the labels "organic," "non-toxic," and "eco-safe" is not regulated by the FDA or USDA. Companies can use these terms even if their product is toxic. If you would like to find out about some of the chemicals in the cleaning products you use, check out www.scorecard.org. Simply type in the name of a chemical on the ingredient list of a cleaning product and find out the health hazards associated with it. For example, household bleach is a neuro- and blood toxicant. There are a lot of earth-friendly products out on the market today. Their efficacy has increased significantly from some of the early attempts. One of our longstanding favorites for soaps, shampoos and cleaners, is a San Diego County, family -owned company, Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps. BioKleen is another company you can trust to be eco-friendly. There is also the option of making these cleaning items yourself with common, earth-friendly products such as borax, white vinegar, lemon juice, and baking soda.
Some SqueakyGreen recipes* are listed below. All Purpose Cleaner 2 cups of hot water 1 tsp. biodegradable liquid soap or borax 1 tsp. white vinegar or lemon juice (to cut grease) Fill spray bottle with hot water. Add soap and vinegar or lemon juice. Shake bottle gently solve ingredients. Toilet Cleaner 1/4 cup of baking soda 1 cup of vinegar Sprinkle baking soda into toilet basin followed by the vinegar. Allow mixture to sit for several minutes. Scrub with brush and rinse with water. A mixture of borax(2 parts) and lemon juice (1 part) will also work. Shower Cleaner 2 cups hot water 1 tsp. borax 3 tsp. white vinegar Fill spray bottle with all three ingredient and shake for 30 seconds. Keep bottle in shower and mist sower wall and door/curtain after each use. Helps prevent mold and mildew from developing. * From a grant from: The California Integrated Waste Management Board and San Diego Regional Household Hazardous Waste Partnership

He chose a legally dubious way to do it, but Circuit Judge Timothy Fox was squarely on the point Thursday when he declared the photo-identification law an unconstitutional infringement on the rights of Arkansas voters.
When people have jumped through all the hoops that are required by the Constitution to register to vote are then forced to produce an official photo identification and other documents before they can actually cast a vote, the legislature has added another requirement for voting, Judge Fox declared. Once a person is legally registered to vote, the Constitution says, neither the legislature nor election officials can erect another hurdle.
The law that is the Arkansas Constitution is exactly that clear. It was that clear a year ago when the legislature narrowly passed Act 595, which erected the photo identification barrier and still more rigmarole to make it harder for many people to vote, particularly the elderly, disabled and poor who do not have driver licenses or international passports.
Opponents, principally Democrats, said the bill was clearly unconstitutional. Governor Beebe vetoed it, noting that it was unquestionably unconstitutional and would simply invite lawsuits that would be costly for the state to litigate. Republicans and a handful of Democrats voted to override his veto, as a simple majority in Arkansas can do, and the lawsuits inevitably followed.
What is a little questionable about Judge Fox's decision and his injunction against the law's enforcement in next month's primaries and judicial election is the venue for the order. It was a lawsuit about Act 595's confusing requirements for casting and counting absentee ballots. A special election for a state Senate seat in Northeast Arkansas this winter wound up invalidating the ballots of a number of legitimate voters who tried to vote absentee that day. The state Board of Election Commissioners had spelled out a way to interpret Act 595, which members of the Pulaski County Election Commission contended was clearly illegal. Only the legislature can fix the flaws in Act 595, they said.
But Judge Fox concluded after a lengthy hearing that those problems were only incidental. Act 595 itself is unconstitutional in a variety of ways, he said. Since the constitutional issues were not raised and argued directly in the suit, you wonder whether the Arkansas Supreme Court, where the case is headed immediately, will allow the full order to stand or return it to the judge for hearings and briefs on the constitutional issues.
Fortunately, and perhaps significantly, precisely those constitutional issues were raised a week earlier in a second lawsuit filed by the Arkansas Public Law Center and the Arkansas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of four voters who will be encumbered by the act's new identification requirements. Judge Fox is to hold a hearing next week on the lawyers' request for a temporary injunction against the law's enforcement at the May and June primaries and judicial election. A final order and a permanent injunction would then await a trial on all the constitutional issues.
Judge Fox's order was almost a recitation of the constitutional arguments in the second case. Presumably, his preliminary ruling in that case next week will be the same as Thursday's.
The authors of the act and the authors of similar voter-ID acts in a number of Southern and Midwestern states are Republicans. In a few instances, they have conceded that the purpose is to drive down Democratic votes at general elections by making it more frustrating or intimidating for some people to vote, particularly minorities.
Rep. Bryan King (R-Green Forest) and other supporters of Act 595 said its purpose was simply to prevent voter fraud and protect the integrity of the vote. Judge Fox wrote that this was indeed a noble purpose, but that Act 595 didn't achieve it.
Arkansas, indeed, has a history of election fraud—ballot theft, corrupting ballots, misreporting vote totals, manufacturing absentee ballots and outright vote buying, as happened in a recent legislative election in east Arkansas. But Act 595 and other photo ID laws would do nothing to stop any of them or to punish the perpetrators. Those are acts of fraud committed by voting officials and political candidates and their surrogates, not solitary voters. Act 595 wouldn't touch the perpetrators.
What Act 595 would prevent is one person going to the polls, pretending to be another voter who is not going to the polls that day and marking that person's ballot. A person who has tried to do that was likely to get caught—he had to match the voter's signature on the affidavit at the polls and also escape the recognition of the voting judges and clerks. There is just no history of that happening, in Arkansas or anywhere else, at least on a scale that is noticeable. An individual is just not prone to take such personal risks for the sake of casting one vote for his or her favorite candidate.
Those risks are taken by people with much at stake—the candidates and their surrogates and party officials at precincts or the county headquarters who have access to ballot boxes, voting machines and voter lists and who record vote totals. One person can alter scores of votes at a time, and a photo ID would have no effect.
Election fraud persisted down through the years, from Reconstruction forward, from Conway County to Phillips County to Searcy County, because sheriffs and prosecutors simply chose to look the other way—or to participate. We have seen some evidence, finally, of that changing in recent years. That does give us some confidence in the integrity of elections.
Discouraging people who already vote too rarely and reluctantly, as Act 595 does, will not help. When Judge Fox's order is upheld, as it eventually will be, everyone who is legal and wants to vote can be assured of having his vote counted. That is America.

Margaret Theresa of Spain Holy roman empress
|Holy roman empress
|Empress, consort of Leopold I Margarita Teresa, Infanta of Spain, Empr...
|12 July 1651, Madrid, Community of Madrid, Spain
|12 March 1673, Vienna, Austria (aged 21 years)
Margaret Theresa of Spain (Spanish: Margarita Teresa, German: Margarete Theresia; 12 July 1651 – 12 March 1673) was, by marriage, Holy Roman Empress, German Queen, Archduchess of Austria and Queen of Hungary and Bohemia. She was the daughter of King Philip IV of Spain and the elder full-sister of Charles II, the last of the Spanish Habsburgs. She is the central figure in the famous Las Meninas by Diego Velázquez, and the subject of many of his later paintings.
Early years
Margaret Theresa was born on 12 July 1651 in Madrid as the first child of King Philip IV of Spain born from his second marriage with his niece Mariana of Austria. Because of this avunculate marriage, Margaret's mother was nearly thirty years younger than her father.
Margaret's paternal grandparents were King Philip III of Spain and his wife Archduchess Margaret of Austria. Her maternal grandparents were Ferdinand III, Holy Roman Emperor and his wife Infanta Maria Anna of Spain, the daughter of her paternal grandparents.
The marriage of her parents was purely made for political reasons, mainly the search for a new male heir for the Spanish throne after the early death of Balthasar Charles, Prince of Asturias in 1646. Besides him, the other only surviving child of Philip IV's first marriage was the Infanta Maria Theresa, who later became the wife of King Louis XIV of France. After Margaret, between 1655 and 1661, four more children (a daughter and three sons) were born from the marriage between Philip IV and Mariana of Austria, but only one survived infancy, the future King Charles II of Spain.
Margaret didn't develop the serious health issues and disabilities (because of the close consanguinity of her parents) that her younger brother had shown since his birth. During her childhood she was once seriously ill, but survived. According to contemporaries, Margaret had an attractive appearance and lively character. Her parents and close friends called her the "little angel". She grew up in the Queen's chambers in the Royal Alcazar of Madrid surrounded by many maids and servants. The Infanta loved candies, which she constantly hid from the physicians who cared for the health of her teeth. Both Margaret's father and maternal grandfather Emperor Ferdinand III loved her deeply. In his private letters King Philip IV called her "my joy". At the same time, Margaret was brought up in accordance with the strict etiquette of the Madrid court, and received a good education.
Betrothal and marriage
In the second half of the 1650s at the imperial court in Vienna the necessity developed for another dynastic marriage between the Spanish and Austrian branches of the House of Habsburg. The union was needed to strengthen the position of both countries, especially against the Kingdom of France. At first the proposals were for Maria Theresa, the eldest daughter of Philip IV, to marry the heir of the Holy Roman Empire, Archduke Leopold Ignaz. But in 1660 and under the terms of the Treaty of the Pyrenees, the Infanta was married to the French King; as a part of her marriage contract, she was forced to renounce her claims to the Spanish throne in return for a monetary settlement as part of her dowry, which was never paid.
Then began discussion about a marriage between Margaret and the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I (who was her maternal uncle and paternal cousin). However, the Madrid court hesitated to agree to this proposal, because the infanta could inherit the Spanish crown if her little brother died. The count of Fuensaldaña, Spanish ambassador in France, suggested the infanta as a possible bride for King Charles II of England. However, King Philip IV rejected this idea, replying that the King of England should look for a wife in France.
In October 1662, the new Imperial ambassador in the Spanish Kingdom, Count Francis Eusebius of Pötting, began one of his main diplomatic assignments, which was the celebration of the marriage between the Infanta and the Emperor. Negotiations by the Spanish side were led by Ramiro Núñez de Guzmán, Duke of Medina de las Torres. On 6 April 1663, the betrothal between Margaret and Leopold I was finally announced. In the marriage contract signed on 18 December, besides the customary dowry, was particularly included, as a gift from her father, the famous Wittelsbach-Graff Diamond. It was also stipulated that Margaret (in contrast with her older half-sister), should maintain her position in the line of succession to the Spanish throne and would pass her rights to her descendants. Before the official wedding ceremony (which, according to custom, had to take place in Vienna) another portrait of the Infanta was sent, in order for the Emperor to know his bride.
King Philip IV died on 17 September 1665. In his will, he did not mention Margaret's betrothal; in fact, the context in which the document was prepared suggests that the late monarch still hesitated to marry his daughter to his Austrian relative because he sought to ensure her rights as sole ruler of the Spanish crown in case of the extinction of his male line. Mariana of Austria, now Dowager Queen and Regent of the Kingdom on behalf of her minor son Charles II, delayed the wedding of her daughter. The marriage was agreed upon only after intense Imperial diplomacy efforts. On 25 April 1666, the marriage by proxy was finally celebrated in Madrid, in a ceremony attended not only by the Dowager Queen, King Charles II and the Imperial ambassador but also by the local nobility; the groom was represented by Antonio de la Cerda, 7th Duke of Medinaceli.
On 28 April 1666 Margaret traveled from Madrid to Vienna, accompanied by her personal retinue. The Infanta arrived at Denia, where she rested for some days before embarking on the Spanish Royal fleet on 16 July, in turn escorted by ships of the Order of Malta and the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. Then (after a short stop in Barcelona because Margaret had some health issues) the cortege sailed to the port of Finale Ligure, where arrived on 20 August. There, Margaret was received by Luis Guzman Ponce de Leon, Governor of Milan. The cortege left Finale on 1 September and arrived in Milan ten days later, although the official entry was not celebrated until 15 September. After spending almost all September in Milan, the Infanta continued the journey through Venice, arriving in early October in Trento. At every stop Margaret received celebrations in her honor. On 8 October the Spanish retinue arrived at the city of Roveredo, where the head of Margaret's cortege, Francisco Fernández de la Cueva, 8th Duke of Alburquerque officially handed the Infanta to Ferdinand Joseph, Prince of Dietrichstein and Count Ernst Adalbert von Harrach, Prince-Bishop of Trento, representants of Leopold I. On 20 October the new Austrian cortege left Roveredo, crossing the Tyrol, through Carinthia and Styria, and arrived on 25 November at the district of Schottwien, twelve miles from Vienna where the Emperor came to receive his bride.
Holy Roman Empress and German Queen
On 5 December 1666, the solemn entry of the Infanta in Vienna took place and the official marriage ceremony was celebrated seven days later, on 12 December. The celebrations that took place in the Austrian capital on the occasion of the imperial marriage (which were among the most splendid of all the Baroque era) lasted almost two years.
Not far from the present Burggarten, the Emperor ordered the construction of an open-air theatre, with a capacity of 5,000 people. It is in this theatre, in July 1668 (on the occasion of Margaret's birthday), that the opera Il pomo d'oro (The Golden Apple), premiered. This opera, composed by Antonio Cesti, was called the "staging of the century" by contemporaries due to its magnificence and expense. The year before, the Emperor gave an equestrian ballet, where he personally mounted on his horse, Speranza; due to technical adaptations, the ballet gave spectators the impression that horses and carriages were hovering in the air.
Despite the age difference, Leopold I's unattractive appearance and Margaret's apparent goitre (a change of the thyroid gland), according to contemporaries they had a happy marriage. The Empress always called her husband "Uncle" (de: Onkel), and he called her "Gretl". The couple had many common interests, especially in art and music.
During her six years of marriage, Margaret gave birth to four children, of whom only one survived infancy:
- Ferdinand Wenceslaus Joseph Michael Eleazar (28 September 1667 – 13 January 1668), Archduke of Austria.
- Maria Antonia Josepha Benedicta Rosalia Petronella (18 January 1669 – 24 December 1692), Archduchess of Austria, who inherited her mother's claims to the Spanish throne, married Maximilian II Emanuel, Elector of Bavaria and was the mother of Joseph Ferdinand of Bavaria.
- John Leopold (born and died 20 February 1670), Archduke of Austria.
- Maria Anna Josepha Antonia Apollonia Scholastica (9 February 1672 – 23 February 1672), Archduchess of Austria.
The Empress was intensely anti-Semitic, and inspired her husband to expel the Jews from Vienna, because she believed that they were to blame for her children's deaths. During the Corpus Christi celebration of 1670, the Emperor ordered the destruction of the Vienna synagogue and a church was built on the site on his orders.
Even after her marriage, Margaret kept her Spanish customs and ways. She did not speak German, and the arrogance of her native retinue led to a strong anti-Spanish sentiment among the imperial court. The courtiers openly expressed the hope that the weak Empress would soon die and thus give Leopold I the opportunity of a second marriage.
During her last pregnancy Margaret fell ill with bronchitis; this, along with her already weakened health due to four living childbirths and at least two miscarriages during her marriage, caused her early death on 12 March 1673, at the age of 21. She was buried in the Imperial Crypt, in Vienna. Only four months later, the widower Emperor – despite his grief for the death of his "only Margareta" (as he remembered her) – entered into a second marriage with Archduchess Claudia Felicitas of Austria, member of the Tyrol branch of the House of Habsburg.
After Margaret's death, her rights over the Spanish throne were inherited by her only surviving daughter Maria Antonia, who in turn passed them to her only surviving son Prince Joseph Ferdinand of Bavaria when she died in 1692. After Joseph Ferdinand's early death in 1699, the rights of inheritance were disputed by both Emperor Leopold I and King Louis XIV of France, son-in-law of King Philip IV. The outcome of the War of the Spanish Succession was the creation of the Spanish branch of the House of Bourbon in the person of King Philip V, Margaret's great-nephew.
Depictions in art
Shortly before the birth of Margaret, painter Diego Velázquez returned to the Spanish court on Madrid. From 1653 to 1659 a series of portraits of the Infanta were painted. Three of them – "Infanta Margarita in a pink dress" (1653), "Infanta Margarita in a silver dress" (1656) and "Infanta Margarita in a blue dress" (1659) were sent to the Imperial court in Vienna, and now are displayed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum. In the last paintings of the 8-year-old Infanta made by Velázquez, a more mature and formal attitude of Margaret can be seen, due to her upcoming marriage to the Emperor.
The most famous painting by Velazquez in the series of portraits of the Infanta was "Las Meninas" (1656), currently in the Museo del Prado in Madrid. In it, the artist painted the 5-year-old Infanta in his studio while working on a portrait of her parents. She is surrounded by her maids of honor and other courtiers, but her eyes are riveted to her parents, whose reflection is visible in the mirror on the wall. The canvas was the inspiration for Picasso, who in 1957 created more than forty variations of this pattern.
The image of Margaret in the paintings by Velázquez inspired not only painters. The poet Boris Pasternak mentions it in a poem of 1923 "Butterfly Storm", in which she appears to him as a vision during a thunderstorm in Moscow. The first image in this poem who Pasternak contrasted with the portraits of the Infanta was mentioned by Vyacheslav Vsevolodovich Ivanov, in his work "Eternal Childhood".
The "Infanta Margarita Teresa in a Pink Dress" (1660), formerly credited to Velázquez, is now considered one of the masterpieces of his son-in-law, Juan Bautista Martínez del Mazo. To Martínez del Mazo also belongs the latter "Portrait of the Infanta Margarita in mourning dress" (1666), in which she is depicted shortly after her father's death and shortly before her wedding. Both paintings are also included in the collection of the Museo del Prado. The authority of the "Portrait of the Infanta Margarita" (1655) currently at the Louvre, is still questioned by researchers.
There are portraits of an adult Margaret by a number of European artists, most of which are stored in the collections of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Among them, "a full-length portrait of the Infanta Margarita Teresa, the Empress" (1665) by Gerard Du Chateau and "Portrait of Empress Margarita Teresa in a theatrical costume" (1667) by Jan Thomas van Ieperen. One of the last portraits of Margaret is the "Portrait of Empress Margarita Teresa and her daughter Maria Antonia" (1671) by Benjamin Block, currently in the Hofburg Palace, where she is depicted with her only surviving child. Numerous copies of her portraits are also preserved, and are now kept in the museum collections around the world.

This Greek recipe will make your entire kitchen smell like tomato and cinnamon. It is an authentic, traditional Greek dish consisting of tasty meatballs in a rich and intense tomato sauce.
We have been eating this dinner for countless occasions – both at Greek tavernas as well as at Georges family's home. His mother makes the best soutzoukakia!
If you need to feel warm, then this dish is for you. It feels like getting a hug on the inside (may sound a little strange).
Provides 15 meatballs in total (about 4 servings):
For the meatballs
- 350 grams of lean minced beef
- 2 cloves of garlic, pressed
- 1 small red onion, chopped
- A good handful of fresh parsley, chopped
- Just under 1 dl. grated parmesan cheese
- 1 dl. breadcrumbs
- 0.5 dl. olive oil
- 1 egg
- 0.5 dl. milk
- (Greek) oregano to taste
- 0.5-1 tsp. salt
- 0.5 tsp. pepper
For the tomato sauce
- 1 dl. olive oil
- A package of chopped tomatoes (400 grams)
- 1 tsp. cinnamon powder
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1.5 tsp. salt
- 0.5 tsp. pepper
- (Greek) oregano
- 70 grams of tomato paste
- 5 dl. water
- 1 dl. Red wine
- 4 bay leaves
The dish is served with rice (and even better, with a Greek salad on the side).
Preparation time: Approx. 30 minutes.
Cooking time: 45-50 minutes.
First, start with the meatballs.
- Preheat the oven to 180 ° C (hot air).
- Start by putting the minced meat in a bowl.
- Mince the two garlic cloves with a press and put them in the bowl.
- Add a finely chopped red onion and chopped fresh parsley.
- Add a bit less than 1 dl. parmesan cheese and a whole dl. of bread crumbs.
- Pour the olive oil over the mixture and then add all the spices.
- Put the egg into the bowl, and finally add the milk.
- Grease a small oven-proof dish (pyrex works great) with olive oil before you start kneading the mixture.
- Mix all of the ingredients together with your hands. Use gloves if you do not like touching raw meat.
- When the meat mixture is well combined, form 15 meatballs with your hands. Make them round or egg-shaped, and then put them side by side in the dish.
- Place the dish with the meatballs in the oven for 10 minutes. After that, turn them around and give them another 8-10 minutes (or until they are brown).
While the meatballs are in the oven, you start making the tomato sauce.
Remember to check the meatballs in the meantime, and turn them around after about 10 minutes in the oven.
- Pour olive oil into a large pot.
- Add the chopped tomatoes from the package.
- Add 5 dl. water.
- Put a cinnamon stick into the pot and add cinnamon powder, salt, pepper, and (Greek) oregano.
- Add the tomato paste and then the bay leaves.
- Stir it all well so the ingredients mix well and bring the saucepan to a boil.
- When the sauce starts to boil, add the red wine.
- Lower the temperature slightly (7 out of 9) and allow the alcohol to evaporate.
- After 5 minutes at a high heat, lower the temperature to below medium (3 out of 9). Stir a few times, and put the lid on.
- Let the sauce simmer for another 5 minutes.
Meatballs and tomato sauce unite
- When the meatballs have been in the oven for about 18-20 minutes in total, take them out.
- Use a large spoon to carefully place the meatballs into the tomato sauce one at a time.
- Put the pot in your hands and remove it from the heat. Using circular movements, roll the meatballs carefully in to the sauce. Be careful while doing so.
- Put the pot back on the stove and simmer for another 15-20 minutes on low heat. This will allow the meatballs to absorb all of the flavor from the tomato sauce.
- While the meatballs simmer in the sauce, cook the rice in the meantime.
Serve the meal with rice on the bottom and meatballs in the red sauce over top. Make it even tastier by adding parmesan cheese.
Bon appétit!

Blockchain technology has the opportunity to fundamentally change how we operate — our businesses, our governments, and our communities. But its future has been jeopardized by human nature. Unless people can agree on standards, blockchain will never reach its full potential.
Optimity's Chad Hahn explains on LA Startups why blockchain isn't as decentralized as we think, and how a small group of people in power are holding the keys to its future.

It's probably not a secret to my regular readers, but I enjoy the work of Don Pendelton— his original The Executioner novels as well as his Joe Copp series—and I've been "rediscovering" his work over the past few months and I have enjoyed every minute of it.
While I was cruising around Google a few days ago I came across his obituary in the New York Times. The author credits DP with the creation of a genre (a notion I share) and goes on to say that without Don Pendelton there would be no Rambo, or any of the other super hero types from 1980s film and literature.
The Rambo comparison intrigued me because the film and novel are very different. I can see a clear correlation with the Stallone film, but the David Morrell novel is less clear. The hero does not fit the super hero mold, and the novel, while firmly in the action thriller category, is much darker and more realistic (than the Mack Bolan books) with both emotion and turmoil.
The obituary is interesting, and mostly spot-on. Here it is, at least part of it…
You'll notice the paper misspelled the last name of Mack Bolan.
Don Pendleton, 67, Writer Who Spawned a Genre
By ROBERT MCG. THOMAS JR.
Published: October 28, 1995
Don Pendleton, whose "Executioner" series featuring Mack Boland spawned the paperback genre of men's action-adventure novels, died on Monday at his home in Sedona, Ariz. He was 67.
His wife, Linda, said the cause was a heart attack.
In the beginning there were westerns, mysteries and science fiction. But until Mr. Pendleton, a onetime air traffic controller, brought Mack Boland to unlikely literary life in 1969, there was no action-adventure category, in which a lone, well-armed fantasy hero wreaks unremitting havoc on the forces of evil in modern society.
Within a decade of Boland's first appearance, the action-adventure genre was a publishing phenomenon, for a while rivaling if not eclipsing its women's counterpart, romance novels.
As surely as Owen Wister's "Virginian," gave the world William S. Hart, Hopalong Cassidy, Roy Rogers and the rest, Mr. Pendleton brought forth Rambo, and scores of other copycat heroes. (Curiously, although there have been two projects, "The Executioner" has never made it to the screen.)
Indeed, a 1988 survey found a total of 66 separate action-adventure series in print. But the genre has been in a sharp decline recently, and only a half-dozen or so survive, "The Executioner" among them.

Click here for this week's specials at Mary's House of Makeup
Mary's House of Makeup on eBay, also known as marym9341, is a store selling designer skincare, hair care products, makeup, and more. Click the blue link above to check out what deals and promotions they are currently offering in cosmetics. At the moment, they do have a EXTRA 10% OFF WHEN YOU BUY 3 OR MORE promotion.
Feedback History
Mary's House of Makeup has been selling on eBay since 2005. They have earned about 60,000 positive feedback ratings, with a current 99.8% positive overall score. So this is a very successful store on eBay. This is also a Top-Rated eBay store, which means they offer a really high level of item descriptions, customer service, as well as fast shipping.
It's not easy to become a Top-Rated store on eBay. You have to provide good quality items, accurate descriptions, excellent customer service, and fast shipping. And you have to do this day after day, month after month. So Mary's House of Makeup has had a very successful and positive selling history on eBay.
Mary's House of Makeup mainly sells makeup, skincare, hair care products, and more. They sell designer brands like Alex and Ani, Bare Escentuals, Laura Geller, Smashbox, Tarte Cosmetics, others. The majority of their inventory is from Bare Escentuals through.
This is one of those eBay stores to visit when you want the retail experience. If you've been to a Macy's or Bloomingdale's lately, or even any mall in general, you should be familiar with the brands and styles that they carry.
Items like Bare Escentuals Jumbo Gossamer All-Over Face & Body Mineral, Smashbox ICONIC EYES Eyeshadow Palette, Tarte Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow Palette, Bare Escentuals BLUSHING APRICOT 5-in-1 BB Advanced Performance Cream, etc.
Mary's House of Makeup sells brand new merchandise, and does offer a 100% Authentic guarantee, as well as a 100% money back guarantee.
When you sell designer and name brand cosmetics, makeup, fragrances, etc., especially at a discount, a popular question is always going to be if the items are authentic, fake, or knock-offs. To answer that question…
Let's take a close look at their recent feedback history. Ebay buyers have a really good way of weeding out the good sellers from the bad. If an item even SLIGHTLY looks like it might be a counterfeit or knock-off, they will leave you bad feedback. And any and all flaws will usually be reflected in a seller's feedback. With that being said, over the past 12 months, Mary's House of Makeup has received about 4,600 positive feedback ratings, compared to just 7 negative feedback comments. With that sort of lop-sided ratio, it definitely appears as though Mary's House of Makeup is an honestly run business, selling authentic merchandise.
Click Here to View Feedback for Mary's House of Makeup
All items are guaranteed to be 100% authentic, and come with all the manufacturer paper work, in their original authentic boxes as provided by the manufacturers.
What I like or don't like
Their storefront is very organized. You have a product menu on the left side with all of the brand categories available. So you just find your desired category, and go from there. Once you get into a listing page, you get a left hand menu with all of the brands available. So this store is very easy to navigate.
Another thing I appreciate is their attention to detail in their listings. Each listing has multiple clear and large pictures, so you can clearly see what is included in the listing. Their descriptions go into a lot of detail, and provide all the specifications that you might be looking for like the model they work for, size, color, etc. The quality of their listings is about as good as it gets on eBay. You get all sorts of pictures, sizes, weights, package contents, etc.
Their attention to detail, and their excellent feedback really makes you feel secure in shopping from this eBay store. As does their 14-day hassle free returns policy. No need to email back for a return authorization, or deal with with annoying emails back and forth. You just click on return, and send it back. And having two weeks to do so is quite convenient.
Have you shopped at this store before? If you have, leave a comment below and share your experience.

Contemporary Home Design Remodeling Tips You Haven't Heard
Home design remodeling involves many different considerations, from style to energy efficiency, to accessibility. There are some contemporary products and methods that you may not know to help in the design process.
Choosing a Style
The most important factor is choosing a style. You can use contemporary products and design techniques still have a classic home style. You can also choose country, modern, urban, or contemporary.
Knowing the look you are after will make your home design remodeling more efficient.
Use Design Software
One of the greatest innovations for home design is the computer aided design software available to the general public.
There are free programs that allow you to rearrange furniture, move walls, reposition appliances, and change colors to see how things would look before you ever contact a contractor or buy a bucket of paint.
Check out the free versions of FloorPlanner, Plan3D, developer3d, and Google Sketch Up for starters.
Modern Bathroom Ideas
Don't be stuck on what you've known from the past. You'll be amazed by the newest innovations for bathrooms.
For example, in bathrooms, you can find walk in tubs or new whirlpool tubs with LCD controls, air massage, or water massage. Steam showers with luxury features like radio, telephone and foot massage would be a great addition, as would an infrared sauna for health and weight loss. New shower body jets are more and more popular, too.
Contemporary Kitchen Tips
Be aware that convenience and efficiency are the top buzz words in contemporary kitchen design.
Plan around the new cordless appliances to replace most small kitchen appliances. This makes it possible to have your preparation center at any place in the kitchen, unlimited by the location of electrical outlets.
Stainless steel and commercial appliances are extremely popular. This may mean that you'll need a larger than standard space for a new refrigerator or stove. A professional, six burner gas cooktop, for example, requires four feet of counter space rather than the standard three feet.
Kitchens are larger and have become the family center, so they are larger and multi-functional. Look for televisions and communication systems integrated into appliances and study or gathering spaces integrated into the design.
When completing your home design remodeling, remember that technology and entertainment are some of the most important considerations in a modern home.
Consider designs that incorporate the new thin screen televisions as part of the décor. There are a variety of mantel/fireplace combos in many styles that incorporate a plasma or lcd television for a complete look.
The minimalist European look is popular in an entertainment room particularly. Look for lots of glass and chrome, or a monochromatic black look.
Green is In
High efficiency appliances, solar power systems, geothermal heating systems, and tankless water heaters are just a few of the innovations in green technology now popular in homes.
In your home design remodeling, remember that green technology has come a long way, and are now mainstream and easy to use. Consider adding green appliances, and you may score not only lower energy costs, but possibly tax advantages.
Colors and Textures
Sometimes your home design remodeling can simply involve changing colors and rearranging furniture.
With the current emphasis on green, contemporary versions of neutral earth colors like sage, burnt umber and toast are again popular. Consider paint or textured wallpapers to upgrade the room's look with little expense.

A variety of memorial and remembrance events are being held this weekend for the late voting rights activist Amelia Boynton-Robinson.
Boynton-Robinson laid in state at Selma's Tabernacle Baptist Church this morning, followed by a four-hour memorial service. Tomorrow, she will lie in state until noon at the chapel of Tuskegee University. A memorial program will be held from noon until 3 PM Sunday at the university chapel.
Finally, a homecoming celebration is planned at Selma's Edmund Pettus Bridge Tuesday at 1 PM. Boynton-Robinson was brutally beaten and nearly killed while attempting to march across that bridge in 1965 on what became known as Bloody Sunday.
Amelia Boynton-Robinson was a voting rights activist since the 1930s and marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and other activists in a campaign that led to the signing of the Voting Rights Act. She died last Wednesday at a hospital in Montgomery. She was 104 years old.

A Rant.
1. First of all and I don't know how much more I can emphasize this. *Bangs shoe on table* BRIAN KEMP STOLE AN ELECTION! HE STOLE IT! Pretty much everyone down here acknowledges this. He passed voter suppression. He was in charge to regulating and investigating himself. He made sure that places with high concentrations of black people, where thousands would be voting only had four machines per polling station. Contrast that with where I live ( a white neighborhood) had 15. Passed laws that essentially made it illegal to give friends or old people rides to the polls. And when this wasn't enough had a last ditch option of simply hacking the machines and changing the votes after the fact, a problem that The Daily Show, Samantha Bee and John Oliver have all done segments on. It would not have mattered if we broke into every red household waterboarded them and threatened to kill their first born, he still would have switched the votes. So short of burning the state down what would you have liked, regular ass people to do, because this shit is still caught up in the courts even as I type this.
2. White women wrote that bill, so next.
3. Be real. you never valued us anyway. Seriously, you all don't like us, and I'm not talking about white people, because fuck white people. Black and Brown people make up the majority of people who live here, who drive culture here and you've never liked us ever. Y'all always get deep in your classism and respectability policies when it comes to black and brown people here. Cause y'all still have de facto segregation in housing and schools and shoot black kids on sight up north, but you would BUCK, if beyonce was like I am never playing another show in Chicago or SF or where ever due to the high number of unarmed black people your police dept kills.
4. All you are doing is punishing black and brown people, who have built and sustained small businesses and productions houses. When they leave, like all things, white people will be fine, and black and brown people will bear the brunt of the fallout. Because we are the last to get anything and first to get things taken away. So I hope you are happy.
5. All you are doing is silencing the black and brown voices that were being developed here, but then again see number three. 85% of all arts funding here in GA goes to the Woodruff arts center. A quick google will show you that, thats all theatre and it's pretty much all white. With the studios came a HUGE investment from the state in developing artists from and based here. With a bit more time, you would have seen us building our own writers rooms and developing our own competitive content. When you go to these different writers workshops, cinematography workshops, production classes. You know whose in these rooms? Black people. Black women. Black women over 45, 50, and 60. Black LGBTQIA people. Disabled Black people. Black Trans women.
6. LA is horrible and I don't want to live there. 6a. There is no water there. 6b. the people suck. 6c. too many white people. 6d. It never rains (see 6a)
Ok I'm done.

View On Strong Women
Merri was born in Denver, Colorado, and shortly thereafter, the family moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. Merri's father was in construction, so they moved to various states throughout her childhood.
After graduating from high school, she attended a junior college in California where she was residing at the time.
Later, she moved to the their base, as her family called it, in the Salt Lake City area where she met her husband, Wynn. After they were married, they settled in Salt Lake and raised their son, Wynn, and daughter, Noel. As with most families, it was full of activities like football, dance, boating, camping, and motorcycle riding every weekend. When their kids started activities of their own, Merri and Wynn discovered their love of golf.
In Merri's job as sales manager and event coordinator for a large trucking company, she had the chance to coordinate a huge fundraiser for Make a Wish Foundation, choosing golf as the vehicle. By having a double shotgun every year, their endeavors raised thousands of dollars for Make A Wish. Merri and Wynn's love for golf continued to grow, and they spent every vacation visiting golf destinations, including Myrtle Beach, Hilton Head, Palm Springs, courses in California, Idaho, and probably every course in Utah. But in the end, their favorite destination was Mesquite, Nevada.
Merri and Wynn came to Mesquite many, many times in the 80s and 90s, golfing on Mesquite and St. George courses. Along with many friends, they fell in love with the area. They decided to buy a townhome in Mesquite and called it a permanent retirement home in 2002. Wynn retired, and Merri kept working for her company. Soon after they moved, her sister Mina and her husband moved to Mesquite from Colorado. They also bought a townhome in Mesquite and called it a permanent retirement home in 2001.
Merri and Wynn quickly became very active in the area, and even though Merri was still working in areas such as Salt Lake, Las Vegas, and St. George, they made time to golf as much as possible.
In 2004, after 38 years of marriage, Merri's husband unexpectedly passed away. With love from the community, her sister, her children, and her close friends, she was able to make it through this very difficult time. It was a blessing that her daughter Noel and her family had also moved to Mesquite.
Merri and her sister got more involved with various charities, and with the help of the city, her daughter Noel, and many other great people, she was able to get the Miss Mesquite Pageant reinstated. She felt that the lovely girls here in Mesquite should have something to help further their education. Her first attempt at major fundraising was the first Miss Mesquite Pageant Golf Tournament. All funds from the tournament go toward scholarships for the pageant winners. Needless to say, with the help of the community, it was a major success and thousands of dollars were raised for the contestants.
Around this time, Merri and her sister Mina were very active in the Rotary Morning Club, and after a few years, each became Rotarian of the Year. Merri believes it is an honor to help in any way she can. Merri was also very active in the Chamber of Commerce where she planned other fundraisers, golf tournaments, and the first annual Wine and Roses dinner dance fundraiser. She is always willing to help.
Merri felt honored to help Golf Fore Kids for a few years with Brian Wursten, Rob Wurston, and Mindee West. She has been a guest showgirl for Jean Watkins which has brought her much happiness.
For approximately eight years, Merri has been involved with the Mesquite Chamber of Commerce, serving on various board positions. One year she was chosen as the Business Person of the Year. She has been a member of the Exchange Club of Mesquite, a member of the Elks Lodge, and is currently working on the board for the Ms. Senior Mesquite Pageant.
Merri is currently enjoying watching the growth and triumphs of her five grandkids and six great-grandkids.
Even though, thanks to her arthritis, she cannot golf as much as she would like, she is able to work at one of her favorite golf courses, which is a major accomplishment. She has also checked off an item on her bucket list — getting a hole in one at that same course.
Whether you're watching the sunrise on the 1st hole, or the sunset on 18th hole, the peace and tranquility will capture you. Merri has always told her friends, "If you love to golf, you will love Mesquite."
We, here at View On Magazine, and the city of Mesquite, are grateful for Merri, her amazingly positive attitude, and the love she shares with everyone she meets. If you are lucky enough to see her on a course, be sure to stop and thank her for all she does for the community.

Between Debt & the Devil: A Book Discussion
Friday, October 16, 2015, 6:30 - 9:30pm
Add to Calendar
Adair Turner talks about his new book, Between Debt & the Devil: Money, Credit, and Fixing Global Finance with Martin Wolf of the Financial Times in a free, public discussion.
Between Debt and the Devil (Princeton University Press; 2015) challenges the belief that we need credit growth to fuel economic growth, and that rising debt is okay as long as inflation remains low. In fact, most credit is not needed for economic growth—but it drives real estate booms and busts and leads to financial crisis and depression. Turner explains why public policy needs to manage the growth and allocation of credit creation, and why debt needs to be taxed as a form of economic pollution. Banks need far more capital, real estate lending must be restricted, and we need to tackle inequality and mitigate the relentless rise of real estate prices. Turner also debunks the big myth about fiat money—the erroneous notion that printing money will lead to harmful inflation. To escape the mess created by past policy errors, we sometimes need to monetize government debt and finance fiscal deficits with central-bank money.
Adair Turner is chairman of the Institute for New Economic Thinking and the author of Economics after the Crisis. He lives in London.

SQA February Seminar
Date Change: February 26th
Yesim Tokat-Acikel
Location: Voya
230 Park Ave. New York, NY
Don't Get Carried Away: Uncovering Macro Characteristics in Carry Portfolios
Join us for an evening with Dr. Tokat-Acikel who will discuss her research on
the linkages between carry strategies and the macroeconomic environment.
Summary: Carry is one the most popular and well-studied cross-asset risk premia strategies.We know from prior research that carry strategies are affected by macroeconomic factors such as the business cycle, liquidity, and volatility. However, these direct links have not been clearly established. Together with her co-author, Marco Aiolfi, Dr. Tokat-Acikel contributes to this line of research by providing direct measures of the macroeconomic characteristics of carry factor portfolios, namely real economic growth and inflation exposures. By pairing methodologies commonly used to derive the fundamental characteristics of equity portfolios, they identify macro linkages that have not been previously made evident.Their holdings-based and factor-mimicking portfolio analyses provide insights into the behavior of carry strategies across various asset classes. This approach can help investors build better carry portfolios by anticipating the payoff in different economic scenarios.
Biography: Yesim Tokat-Acikel, PhD, is a Principal and Portfolio Manager for QMA working within the Global Multi-Asset Solutions team. She is responsible for the research, development, and portfolio management of systematic total and absolute return investment solutions. Prior to QMA, she worked as a Senior Quantitative Analyst developing GTAA strategies at AllianceBernstein, and as a Senior Investment Analyst for The Vanguard Group, where she built tactical and strategic asset allocation models for retirement and private client markets. Her articles on strategic and tactical portfolio allocation have appeared in The Journal of Investing, "Mathematical Methods of Operations Research", the Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, the Strategic Management Journal, Professional Investor, the Journal of Financial Planning and The Journal of Wealth Management, among other leading publications. She earned a BS in industrial engineering from Bilkent University in Turkey, an MS in industrial engineering from the University of Arizona, Tucson, and a PhD in economics from the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Patent Theft Rips Off American Entrepreneurs, Inventors, and Creators
Dear Patriots,
We have posted a voluminous amount of material on patent theft, including the biggest theft of all committed by the IBM Eclipse Foundation and the U.S. Patent Office of Leader Technologies' trade secrets that made the internet explode as the most powerful communication device ever created.
Along the way, we have met other inventors
who have had a similar fate with the corrupt patent system.
The government and the criminals who are associated with the U.S. Patent Office outright steal ideas and innovations from hardworking American entrepreneurs.
The theft of patents by our own government is appalling, especially when it turns these technologies into weapons used against citizens around the world, as in the case of social media where Google, Facebook, Twitter and others have become vehicles for surveillance and tyrannical control of citizens.
American Intelligence Media readers have asked that we create a one-page flier with some of our top articles and audios on patent theft so that it is easy to send out and share with patriots.
Please educate and enlighten your circle of influence about patent theft.
Our journey into understanding patent theft began when we learned the backstory of Leader Technologies. In the link below you will find our six-part video discussion with Michael McKibben, whose company created a quantum leap in technology to almost infinite scalability with their social networking invention that was stolen, then weaponized, to take away the user's freedom and surveil everything in their lives.
Facebook Unmasked: How the World's Most Relevant Entrepreneur Was Screwed By Zuckerberg
If you are seeking patent protection of your ideas, invention, or trade secrets, DO NOT file with the U.S. Patent Office at this time. It is run by the British SERCO and is set up as a dragnet to STEAL your proprietary work.
As we continued to explore patent theft, we found that the energy sector was plagued with theft and suppression of energy technologies that could set the world free from petrochemical energy. What would greedy warlord bankers and criminal elite do if energy were freely available at very low cost to anyone in the world?
The Real Energy Revolution Has Begun

Free, yet priceless.
In this audio, Douglas Gabriel and Michael McKibben discuss how globalists, attorneys, and a corrupt patent system have been stealing patents of striving American entrepreneurs who are waking up and BOYCOTTING the U.S. Patent Office which is being run by SERCO and foreign agents.
The results of stripping innovators of their property rights, whether those forces are from China or right here in America, are devastating to the restoration of the Republic and the future of a healthy economy.
Stolen from Americans
Douglas and Michael continue to explain how the theft of key patents are used as weapons against citizens in the video discussion below.

The Trust has been in communication with the Inspectors Office this week in an attempt to discuss the problems they believe exists with the Revised Development Plan. The Trust believes the problems all affect the Soundness of the Revised Development Plan. This week The Inspectors Office has acted as a go between to discuss the situation with the Council. The Council office has supplied a response to the concerns the Trust raised with missing records, however this information provided did not answer all of the points. The Trust has now refocused its efforts in an attempt to encourage the Council to resolve these issues.
