I plan to monitor the AC power line voltage in my shack with a Simpson model 59 AC panel meter that I picked up as surplus from someplace or other.
But it's got an oddity - a external 0.0025 µF capacitor hanging off the back of the meter.
The capacitor looks like it's a molded paper type. The Simpson data-sheet for model 59 panel meters mentions that the higher range AC voltmeters (500 volts and above) have an external multiplier, while the lower-range voltmeters have internal multipliers. I wonder if my meter was modified to use a capacitor in place of an internal multiplier resistor.
Inspection of the internals reveals that the capacitor is shunting the multiplier resistance coils. The meter is labeled for "60 & 400 CYCLES". I wonder if originally there was an internal capacitor to compensate for the inductance of the multiplier resistance coils, which failed and was replaced by this external capacitor?
I cut the cap out, leaving a bit of the leads behind in case I need to replace it to make the meter function correctly. I don't want to mess with the solder joints on the precision multiplier resistance coils.
I don't want to have a suicide cord in my shop, so I'll have to rig up a safe way to test out the meter. Some time ago I built a little rig with a line cord, fuse, and power switch feeding a 25.2 volt center-tapped transformer connected to binding posts; I used it for checking the calibration on the low ranges of my VTVMs and VOMs. I think I'll add a couple of insulated pin jacks to access the 117 VAC side.
This meter came out of a test fixture built into a small Bud cabinet with a couple of two-prong AC outlets and a hole where I guess a Variac used to be. The fixture had a Raytheon sticker on it. I recently noticed one of these test fixtures for sale on Craigslist and the interior photos showed that its meter has the same capacitor as mine. So I guess the capacitor is to compensate for the inductance of the wire-wound precision resistor at 400 cps. I'll have to complete the job of characterizing the meter and the cap some day.

Open Letter to Bill O'Reilly• by Don Boudreaux
Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
You're all lathered up because U.S. oil companies are exporting much of their refined gasoline and heating oil to other countries and thereby putting upward pressure on fuel prices here in America. You conclude that these companies have a moral obligation not to export so much.
Your economics is wrong and your ethics convenient.
First some economics. Selling in the global market encourages firms to build larger factories and refineries that, in turn, enable outputs to be produced at lower costs per unit. So while in the short-run rising exports of oil products can cause fuel prices here to spike, the long-run effect might well be lower prices because of larger, more-efficient scales of operation. Also, more exports of fuel products means more imports of other goods and services. The result is lower prices in America for consumer goods such as clothing and furniture, as well as lower prices of inputs such as steel and industrial machinery used by American factories

VBA created named ranges to make lookups from your data sheet easier
Performance is the most critical factor for our users when they refresh reports. We're on SAP BPC 10.1 for NW on HANA but we still rely on streamlining the client side process to improve the user experience. We've found best way to accomplish this is to consolidate information into a single report and leverage native excel functionality to lookup data from the report, instead of multiple reports across multiple tabs. Our biggest example of this is a packet of over 20 reports, each on its own excel sheet, all fed by a single EPM report that refreshes in about 15 seconds.
While this has proven to be the optimal design for our real-time on demand reporting packets, accessing the report data from the data tab can be troublesome specifically if the report is dynamic and members change depending on selected context. This is the problem I sought to standardize, and make data tabs easier to utilize.
Incorporate the VBA code below in any excel workbook and it will automatically create excel named ranges for the Rows, columns, and data section of the report that can be leveraged to access the data contained in the EPM Reports. Each named range correlates to the report ID such as Report001 will have a RowRng001, a ColRng001, and a DataRng001.
Take the example report below. The ranges created are colored to show the result of the VBA code.
This data is now accessible using the following index match formula shown below, and when locked on the reference rows and columns, the formula can be copied and pasted to provide the data for the report.
In a more complex report, multiple rows or columns are used to create the right intersection of data, even in those circumstances this can be leveraged. As in the example below I've used a local member to concatenate the members to create a lookup within the data section of the report.
The data can be accessed by matching on the first column of the data range as shown by the formula below. (note: I forgot to include the iferror wrapper on this version of the excel function)
Feel free to leverage this code as it has made building reports much simpler.
Anyone diving into the code might also see Include functionality. Here is a brief overview of that: Complex formulas that are not stored and need to be calculated on the fly are better done client side. (We dream of the day when HANA MDX can be incorporated into our models and not cause a performance hit) Similar to the function EPM Copy range, sometimes we want our data to include extra formulas across the entire report. The Include functionality built into this VBA will do that. Formulas found in a named range such as Include001, will be incorporated into the report as the names are built to make it easier to access these calculations. Note: names are expected to be given just above the include range. See picture below:

Video games might not be the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about the ways in which technology can better the world. However, the virtual environment that video games provide can play a crucial role in the faster development of artificial intelligence.
Video games can generate enormous amounts of data in a very short time. Scientists can generate hundreds of "real-world years" of data in just a few hours with the use of video games. The more data the AI has, the faster it can learn and develop.
Here are several ways in which video games can help develop artificial intelligence faster than ever before.
A virtual environment allows artificial intelligence to develop its algorithms at a much faster pace than a physical environment does. In the time a robot completes a task 10 times, an algorithm could play a video game 10,000 times.
Thanks to video games, we could have autonomous artificial intelligence agents in a few years, rather than in several decades.
In addition, there is no risk that anything will break or malfunction in the process. Thus, the cost and staff requirement is lower as well. If we were to train AIs with robots, there would be a risk of overheating or wear and tear.
Autonomous cars are becoming more and more frequently seen on the streets everywhere in the world. However, there is still a lot of debate whether it is safe to allow them to learn in the real world.
An alternative would be to create a virtual driving game in which an AI could train in a safe environment and then use what it had learned in the open roads. This virtual world would be an exact copy of real-world streets, complete with signs and unpredictable traffic.
The lessons Artificial Intelligence learn in video games can be applied to many new areas — only the human imagination is the limit. For example, by playing strategy games, AIs can build their management skills which can be used in numerous industries.
To advance in a strategy game, you need to think in a tactical manner, build and coordinate logistical networks, and make sure that there is a sufficient inflow of resources. Such games are the closest we can get to mimicking real-world tasks.
Apart from helping artificial intelligence progress at a faster pace, video games also help scientists understand how AI functions and learns. They provide a controlled environment in which we can observe the AI and see how it makes decisions and which mistakes it makes. That allows us to write better algorithms and find better real-world applications for artificial intelligence.
Moreover, by watching artificial intelligence play video games against humans, we can figure out what AIs are good at and what humans are good at. Thus, we can find ways in which artificial intelligence can complement human skills and improve the efficiency of real-world processes.
As you can see, artificial intelligence and video games are a match made in heaven. Before, they were thought of as a source of entertainment, but now scientists have found them a much more important role. They are certainly making the world a better place.

When people rub up against you, what do they feel? Back in December, while Christmas shopping for my wife, Pam, I found myself sampling the feel of some clothing I was thinking of buying for her. Some felt soft to the touch; others not so much. What is the texture of your life? In one of his letters to the early believers, the apostle Paul described the texture that will be produced by the Holy Spirit's work in a person's life:
So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. . . . But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law (Galatians 5:16, 22,23).
For a sobering list of bad fruit, check out Galatians 5:17-21.
My own journey—even last week—proves that when this fruit is growing in me, others receive the goodness of God. And when the Spirit's fruit is absent, I'm no fun at all to be around!
How do people experience the texture of the Spirit in our lives? Through our mouths, our feet, and our hands—the words that we say, the places our feet take us, and what we do when we get there!
Does your life emanate the goodness of God as reflected in this list in Galatians 5:22,23? Which of these fruit are present in your life on a regular basis? Which are missing?

There are some great new pedestrian and bike improvements coming to Mebane. Keep up to date on the City Website and/or dive into the Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan that was published this year!
Alamance County, like many of the 100 counties across the state of North Carolina, is experiencing a population shift from rural to urban environments. The small towns that serve as important infrastructural nodes for the rural fabric of the State face budget challenges as the tax-base leaves for jobs in larger cities. Finding funding and staffing for primary services like community banking, education, and healthcare is a dilemma that is quickly spreading as populations age, light-industrial jobs re-locate, and post-war infrastructure ages. In parallel to these rural struggles, the larger cities of the State face new urban planning challenges - how to provide infrastructure in urban fabrics that are not designed for large influxes of residents and workers, how to create a platform for different communities (old and new) to have a dialogue, how to meet current energy, transportation, healthcare, housing, and education needs while also planning for future challenges?
FLOCK DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE believes that great solutions come from great communities and that great communities are built through both conversation and action. At 2017 Alamance Pride, we decided to start a conversation with our community about what they would like to see in their County and in their State. It is the start of a conversation that we hope will become much larger - that will find itself tangled in long-standing and newly created community conversations, that will find new voices, and stories and ideas and create new actions that will make our State stronger, more open, more innovative, and more connected.

At least 10 suspects have been identified in a vandalism case that delayed the start of classes today for a school district in central Iowa. Neil Shultz, with the Polk County Sheriff's Department, says the vandals raided the Southeast Polk Schools' bus garage and let the air out of most of the buses tires.
"There's in excess of four-thousand dollars worth of damage. They took the valve stems and actually removed them from the tires from a good portion of the school's vehicles," Shultz said. The damage also included fish bait and used cat litter that was spread inside many of the buses. Shultz says the bus parking area is normally fenced off.
A large section of fencing, however, was down because of some construction work. "It's just a bad series of coincidences with the fence not being in place…it was an opportunity for somebody to get in," Shultz said. School officials delayed the start of classes by two hours this morning to give workers time to remove the fish bait and cat litter and re-inflate tires on nearly 40 buses.
Some students complained about the foul odor in the buses, which were scheduled for a more thorough cleaning in the afternoon. Shultz says some of the suspects in the case are over the age of 18 and could face charges as adults.

We spotted a dead rat in the lane near our home a day or two ago and it reminded me that we hadn't seen a rodent – dead or alive – for some time. Thankfully. Having seven outdoor cats around the place is the best rat or mouse deterrent going.
Before the cats took up residence on our finca we tried a few measures to deter the rats and mice that we often saw around. The first was the large plastic owl (brought over with us from the UK) which we suspended from a branch on one of our almond trees. Our Mallorcan neighbours must have had a chuckle about that…as did the rodents, we imagine, since they weren't the least bit put off.
There were electronic gizmos emitting an unpleasant sound that only rodents could hear – allegedly. If they did hear anything from these gadgets, they didn't seem at all bothered.
The Boss blocked up any inviting gaps and holes in the structure of our house and, eventually, we stopped hearing the creatures scuttling within the thick stone walls or under the roof tiles. We still saw them occasionally outside but I stopped worrying about them coming into the house.
An unforgettable night
Look away now if you're of a nervous disposition because, in spite of the various measures taken to make our home rat-proof, we had a four-legged, long-tailed visitor one night. I'm shuddering now at the memory of it.
I woke up suddenly in the depth of the night to the sound of scratching. It wasn't The Boss – who was sleeping peacefully (little did he know …) – and it wasn't our Birman cat Minstral, who sleeps at the other end of our one-storey home. What could it be? The noise became intermittent but closer so I shook The Boss until he groggily came to.
Silence had returned by then, of course. "Go back to sleep, you must have imagined it," he replied after I'd explained my fears. "Nothing can get in here." Minutes later the noise started again but The Boss didn't stir. I listened carefully, trying to work out where the sound was coming from. The sitting room! Feeling brave, I climbed out of bed, grabbed my bedside torch and went to close the sitting-room doors. Whatever was in there could stay there until morning.
"What are you doing?" groaned The Boss when I slid back under the duvet.
"The thing. I've shut whatever it is in the sitting room," I said confidently. "We can sort it in the morning."
"You're imagining things," he replied sleepily, "just try and get back to sleep."
And I did manage to drift off again. I know that because I was woken by The Boss yelling out some time later. Whatever I thought had been in the sitting room hadn't; something had just run right across The Boss's head! Yes, a rat.
We both jumped out of bed and scarpered to the guest room for the rest of the night – having made sure that the creature was confined to our room. All I remember of the next day was a lot of banging and crashing as The Boss tried to catch and remove the creature. And a long session afterwards with rubber gloves, buckets of steaming-hot water, and disinfectant.
A cautionary tale
So how did the rat get into the house? The original walls of our house are around 80cm thick, which means a deep recess between the windows and the external shutters (persianas). The Boss had closed the shutters at dusk from the outside, unaware that a rat had taken refuge within the recess. When it couldn't easily escape it found its way into the house through a very small hole in the old mosquito screen (which we'd been meaning to replace). A very small hole.
The moral of the story: check those deep window recesses for unwelcome visitors before shutting your persianas. Fix those old mosquito screens. And adopt a few stray cats …

hledger-web is a web interface (WUI) for the hledger accounting tool. This manual is for hledger-web 1.26.
hledger-web [OPTIONS]
hledger web -- [OPTIONS]
hledger is a reliable, cross-platform set of programs for tracking money, time, or any other commodity, using double-entry accounting and a simple, editable file format. hledger is inspired by and largely compatible with ledger(1).
hledger-web is hledger's web interface. It starts a simple web application for browsing and adding transactions, and optionally opens it in a web browser window if possible. It provides a more user-friendly UI than the hledger CLI or hledger-ui interface, showing more at once (accounts, the current account register, balance charts) and allowing history-aware data entry, interactive searching, and bookmarking.
hledger-web also lets you share a ledger with multiple users, or even the public web. There is no access control, so if you need that you should put it behind a suitable web proxy. As a small protection against data loss when running an unprotected instance, it writes a numbered backup of the main journal file (only ?) on every edit.
Like hledger, it reads data from one or more files in hledger journal,
timeclock, timedot, or CSV format specified with
-f, or
$LEDGER_FILE, or
$HOME/.hledger.journal (on windows, perhaps
C:/Users/USER/.hledger.journal). For more about this see hledger(1).
Command-line options and arguments may be used to set an initial filter on the data. These filter options are not shown in the web UI, but it will be applied in addition to any search query entered there.
Note: if invoking hledger-web as a hledger subcommand, write
-- before
options, as shown in the synopsis above.
: serve and log requests, don't browse or auto-exit
: like --serve, but serve only the JSON web API, without the
server-side web UI
: listen on this IP address (default: 127.0.0.1)
: listen on this TCP port (default: 5000)
: use a unix domain socket file to listen for requests instead of a
TCP socket. Implies
--serve. It can only be used if the operating
system can provide this type of socket.
: set the base url (default: http://IPADDR:PORT). You would change
this when sharing over the network, or integrating within a larger
: set the static files url (default: BASEURL/static). hledger-web
normally serves static files itself, but if you wanted to serve them
from another server for efficiency, you would set the url with this.
: enable the view, add, and/or manage capabilities (default: view,add)
: read capabilities to enable from a HTTP header, like
X-Sandstorm-Permissions (default: disabled)
: run hledger-web's tests and exit. hspec test runner args may follow
a --, eg: hledger-web --test -- --help
hledger input options:
-f FILE --file=FILE
: use a different input file. For stdin, use - (default:
$LEDGER_FILE or
: Conversion rules file to use when reading CSV (default: FILE.rules)
: Field separator to expect when reading CSV (default: ',')
: rename accounts named OLD to NEW
: anonymize accounts and payees
--pivot FIELDNAME
: use some other field or tag for the account name
-I --ignore-assertions
: disable balance assertion checks (note: does not disable balance
-s --strict
: do extra error checking (check that all posted accounts are
hledger reporting options:
-b --begin=DATE
: include postings/txns on or after this date (will be adjusted to

: hide/aggregate accounts or postings more than NUM levels deep
-E --empty
: show items with zero amount, normally hidden (and vice-versa in

-V --market
: convert amounts to their market value in default valuation
-X --exchange=COMM
: convert amounts to their market value in commodity COMM
: convert amounts to cost or market value, more flexibly than -B/-V/-X
: use transaction prices (recorded with @ or @@) as additional market
prices, as if they were P directives
: apply automated posting rules to
modify transactions.
: generate future transactions from periodic
transaction rules, for the next
6 months or till report end date. In hledger-ui, also make ordinary
future transactions visible.
: Override the commodity style in the output for the specified
commodity. For example 'EUR1.000,00'.
--color=WHEN (or --colour=WHEN)
: Should color-supporting commands use ANSI color codes in text
: 'auto' (default): whenever stdout seems to be a color-supporting
: 'always' or 'yes': always, useful eg when piping output into
'less -R'.
: 'never' or 'no': never.
: A NO_COLOR environment variable overrides this.
: Show prettier output, e.g. using unicode box-drawing characters.
: Accepts 'yes' (the default) or 'no' ('y', 'n', 'always',
'never' also work).
: If you provide an argument you must use '=', e.g.
When a reporting option appears more than once in the command line, the last one takes precedence.
Some reporting options can also be written as query arguments.
hledger help options:
-h --help
: show general or COMMAND help
: show general or COMMAND user manual with man
: show general or COMMAND user manual with info
: show general or ADDONCMD version
: show debug output (levels 1-9, default: 1)
A @FILE argument will be expanded to the contents of FILE, which should
contain one command line option/argument per line. (To prevent this,
insert a
-- argument before.)
By default, hledger-web starts the web app in "transient mode" and
also opens it in your default web browser if possible. In this mode the
web app will keep running for as long as you have it open in a browser
window, and will exit after two minutes of inactivity (no requests and
no browser windows viewing it). With
--serve, it just runs the web app
without exiting, and logs requests to the console. With
only the JSON web api (see below) is served, with the usual HTML
server-side web UI disabled.
By default the server listens on IP address 127.0.0.1, accessible only
to local requests. You can use
--host to change this, eg
--host 0.0.0.0 to listen on all configured addresses.
Similarly, use
--port to set a TCP port other than 5000, eg if you are
running multiple hledger-web instances.
Both of these options are ignored when
--socket is used. In this case,
it creates an
AF_UNIX socket file at the supplied path and uses that
for communication. This is an alternative way of running multiple
hledger-web instances behind a reverse proxy that handles authentication
for different users. The path can be derived in a predictable way, eg by
using the username within the path. As an example,
nginx as reverse
proxy can use the variable
$remote_user to derive a path from the
username used in a HTTP basic
The following
proxy_pass directive allows access to all
instances that created a socket in
proxy_pass http://unix:/tmp/hledger/${remote_user}.socket;
You can use
--base-url to change the protocol, hostname, port and path
that appear in hyperlinks, useful eg for integrating hledger-web within
a larger website. The default is
http://HOST:PORT/ using the server's
configured host address and TCP port (or
http://HOST if PORT is 80).
--file-url you can set a different base url for static files, eg
for better caching or cookie-less serving on high performance websites.
By default, hledger-web allows anyone who can reach it to view the journal and to add new transactions, but not to change existing data.
You can restrict who can reach it by
- setting the IP address it listens on (see
--hostabove). By default it listens on 127.0.0.1, accessible to all users on the local machine.
- putting it behind an authenticating proxy, using eg apache or nginx
- custom firewall rules
You can restrict what the users who reach it can do, by
- using the
--capabilities=CAP[,CAP..]flag when you start it, enabling one or more of the following capabilities. The default value is
view- allows viewing the journal file and all included files
add- allows adding new transactions to the main journal file
manage- allows editing, uploading or downloading the main or included files
- using the
--capabilities-header=HTTPHEADERflag to specify a HTTP header from which it will read capabilities to enable. hledger-web on Sandstorm uses the X-Sandstorm-Permissions header to integrate with Sandstorm's permissions. This is disabled by default.
If you enable the
manage capability mentioned above, you'll see a new
"spanner" button to the right of the search form. Clicking this will
let you edit, upload, or download the journal file or any files it
Note, unlike any other hledger command, in this mode you (or any visitor) can alter or wipe the data files.
Normally whenever a file is changed in this way, hledger-web saves a numbered backup (assuming file permissions allow it, the disk is not full, etc.) hledger-web is not aware of version control systems, currently; if you use one, you'll have to arrange to commit the changes yourself (eg with a cron job or a file watcher like entr).
Changes which would leave the journal file(s) unparseable or non-valid (eg with failing balance assertions) are prevented. (Probably. This needs re-testing.)
hledger-web detects changes made to the files by other means (eg if you edit it directly, outside of hledger-web), and it will show the new data when you reload the page or navigate to a new page. If a change makes a file unparseable, hledger-web will display an error message until the file has been fixed.
(Note: if you are viewing files mounted from another machine, make sure that both machine clocks are roughly in step.)
In addition to the web UI, hledger-web also serves a JSON API that can
be used to get data or add new transactions. If you want the JSON API
only, you can use the
--serve-api flag. Eg:
$ hledger-web -f examples/sample.journal --serve-api
You can get JSON data from these routes:
Eg, all account names in the journal (similar to the accounts command). (hledger-web's JSON does not include newlines, here we use python to prettify it):
$ curl -s http://127.0.0.1:5000/accountnames | python -m json.tool
Or all transactions:
$ curl -s http://127.0.0.1:5000/transactions | python -m json.tool

"tindex": 1,
"tpostings": [
"paccount": "assets:bank:checking",
"pamount": [
"acommodity": "$",
"aismultiplier": false,
"aprice": null,
Most of the JSON corresponds to hledger's data types; for details of what the fields mean, see the Hledger.Data.Json haddock docs and click on the various data types, eg Transaction. And for a higher level understanding, see the journal manual.
In some cases there is outer JSON corresponding to a "Report" type. To
understand that, go to the Hledger.Web.Handler.MiscR
and look at the source for the appropriate handler to see what it
returns. Eg for
/accounttransactions it's
returning a "
accountTransactionsReport ...". Looking
up the
haddock for that we can see that /accounttransactions returns an
which consists of a report title and a list of
AccountTransactionsReportItem (etc).
You can add a new transaction to the journal with a PUT request to
/add, if hledger-web was started with the
add capability (enabled by
default). The payload must be the full, exact JSON representation of a
hledger transaction (partial data won't do). You can get sample JSON
from hledger-web's
/transactions or
/accounttransactions, or you
can export it with hledger-lib, eg like so:
.../hledger$ stack ghci hledger-lib
>>> writeJsonFile "txn.json" (head $ jtxns samplejournal)
>>> :q

And here's how to test adding it with curl. This should add a new entry to your journal:
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/add -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-binary @txn.json
LEDGER_FILE The journal file path when not specified with
On unix computers, the default value is:
A more typical value is something like
~/finance/YYYY.journal, where
~/finance is a version-controlled finance directory and YYYY is the
current year. Or,
~/finance/current.journal, where current.journal is
a symbolic link to YYYY.journal.
The usual way to set this permanently is to add a command to one of your
shell's startup files (eg
export LEDGER_FILE=~/finance/current.journal`
On some Mac computers, there is a more thorough way to set environment
variables, that will also affect applications started from the GUI (eg,
Emacs started from a dock icon): In
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, add
an entry like:
"LEDGER_FILE" : "~/finance/current.journal"
For this to take effect you might need to
killall Dock, or reboot.
On Windows computers, the default value is probably
C:\Users\MyUserName\.hledger.journal. You can change this by running a
command like this in a powershell window:
> setx LEDGER_FILE "C:\Users\MyUserName\finance\2021.journal"
(Let us know if you need to be an Administrator, and if this persists across a reboot.)
Reads data from one or more files in hledger journal, timeclock,
timedot, or CSV format specified with
-f, or
$LEDGER_FILE, or
$HOME/.hledger.journal (on windows, perhaps
The need to precede options with
-- when invoked from hledger is
-f- doesn't work (hledger-web can't read from stdin).
Query arguments and some hledger options are ignored.
Does not work in text-mode browsers.
Does not work well on small screens.

You might remember my trip to the Petunia Pickle Bottom store several weeks ago. I've long been on the hunt for a diaper bag that is both functional as it is beautiful. Not only that, I refuse to use a diaper bag that looks like a diaper bag. Been there, done that with the first baby. I'd much rather have something that resembles a stylish purse. I've found that in the Petunia Pickle Bottom City Carryall. It's big enough to accommodate all my baby needs, plus my own. I kind of have a lot of stuff. But at least I'm always prepared. The newly released embossed fabrics provide the class and modernism that I was looking for all along.
I love the versatility of the handles. There is a large strap for an over the shoulder option, plus smaller handles for a hand held look.
But my favorite feature is the built in changing station. An outer pocket unzips and reveals a fold out diaper changing mat and two pockets. This is perfect for quick changes while out and about with baby.
Here's what you get, all in one beautiful bag:
English lace design discreetly stitched onto a colored background with monochromatic Glazed accent. Water-resistant lining, onyx piping and handles.
Large interior space with two bottle pockets, one zippered pocket and two organizational pockets

Two outer bottle pockets and two pockets on back for extra storage
Padded tote handles and removable long strap for either messenger-style or shoulder-style carry
Premium metal logo plate
PPB monogrammed plastic wipes case
100% polyester shell fabric with embroidery

A base station is installed that connects to your house mains. This base station is where the robotic mower lives and gets charged when it's not mowing the lawn.
A guide wire that starts at the base station is run along the perimeter of the area to be so that the mower knows where all the edges are. At the end of it's mowing cycle it will return to base on its own to continue charging, ready for the next day's mowing.
Complex areas can be broken up into zones and using various accessories these zones can also be dealt with by the robotic mower.
Every day, the mower cuts a few millimeters of grass and leaves the clippings on the ground, fertilizing your lawn in a natural way.
Obstacles are easily handled with the robotic mower detecting obstacles and mowing around them.
What are the typical specifications?
There are a number of makes a models designed to handle everything from the smallest area all the way up to more than an acre. Depending on the model selected the specifications will fall somewhere in this range.
- LAWN SIZE : from 1/20th to a 1 1/4 Acre

We've all probably experienced that moment in the office where a coworker says something that is out of line and even offensive. Perhaps he or she has commented on the way you dress or speak. You may be wondering what the appropriate action is in this uncomfortable situation. What do you even say? Should you even respond?
Consider these tips when you are faced with such a situation:
- Think before you say anything and maintain self-control. You don't want the situation to escalate. Take a few moments to sort through your thoughts and emotions. When you feel like you are in an appropriate state, then you can address the issue. You want to make sure you are choosing the right time and place to give your feedback. Always take the high road, and never respond with an equally offensive comment.
- Be empathetic. This may seem like the last thing you'd want to do, but it may help to try and understand where the offensive comment is coming from. While it is never okay to insult someone, the offender may be dealing with something personal and this is how they cope. Consider the saying, "Kill them with kindness." Try and turn the tables by asking them what's wrong and if there's a reason for what they just said.
- Be assertive. If the person actively seeks you out, standing up to him or her will help bring attention to the issue and force him or her to face you, directly. For some, confrontation can be an uncomfortable and scary experience. But, it is necessary. Acknowledge the situation in an assertive manner and address him or her directly. Some possible ways to begin this conversation include:
- Hey—I heard you saying ____. I know you may not realize it, but what you said was offensive. I would appreciate it if you refrained from saying it in the future.
- A lot of people don't like that you keep saying ____. Can you please stop?
- You need to stop saying _____. It's offensive and will not be tolerated here.
- Talk to others. Sometimes, it isn't enough to confront the offender. If something a coworker said bothered you, it is quite possible it offended others as well. Also, you may find yourself focused on the comment, rather than the work you need to do. Don't internalize the negative thoughts. Instead, be proactive. By talking to other coworkers about the issue, you can get a second voice and decide what the next step is so you're not alone. If you don't feel comfortable talking to anyone in the office, Workbravely.com is a website that connects employees with trusted experts who can give neutral, independent guidance, without needing to know about the company you work for.
Always remember, you should never feel like you have to keep working in a hostile environment. If the problem persists, you may need to take more serious actions, such as speaking to HR or a supervisor. Make sure you are truthful and accurately detail the events that led up to the comment.

HealthDay News — Men with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have an increased risk for prostate cancer (PCa), according to a study published online December 4 in European Urology.
Jacob A. Burns, from the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, and colleagues compared the incidence of PCa between men with and without IBD in a retrospective matched-cohort study. A total of 1033 male patients with IBD were matched with 9306 controls by age and race.
The researchers found that the incidence of PCa at 10 years was 4.4 and 0.65% among men with IBD and controls, respectively (hazard ratio, 4.84). At 10 years, the incidence of clinically significant PCa was 2.4 and 0.42% for men with IBD and controls (hazard ratio, 4.04). Prostate-specific antigen values were higher among men with IBD at approximately age 60 years.
"These patients may need to be screened more carefully than a man without inflammatory bowel disease," a coauthor said in a statement. "If a man with inflammatory bowel disease has an elevated prostate-specific antigen, it may be an indicator of prostate cancer."

We designed this Best of South African Luxury: Relaxation and Adventure vacation for a high-powered couple from New York City. They wanted to see the highlights of South Africa and receive the VIP treatment throughout their trip, so we arranged this luxury vacation to some of the most exclusive, beautiful, and unique hotels in South Africa.
Their Best of South African Luxury: Relaxation and Adventure vacation began in Cape Town. They stayed at The Silo Hotel, which has set a new standard for Cape Town hotels since it opened in 2017. The Silo was included on Condé Nast Traveller's Gold List in its first year of business. This exclusive hotel features breathtaking panoramic views; an ideal location in the heart of everything, yet away from crowds; and an exquisite collection of contemporary African art.
Next, they visited the Cape Winelands. Just an hour outside of Cape Town, the picturesque Franschhoek Valley was a perfect place to relax after their time in the city. Then they visited Hermanus for whale watching and Great White Shark cage diving.
Then it was time for their Big 5 wildlife safari! They traveled to the northeast side of the country to spend 3 nights at Royal Malewane safari lodge, located on a private game reserve bordering Kruger National Park. Royal Malewane offers a 5-star experience all around. The game viewing is unparalleled, and expert safari guides bring nature to life. You can even rent professional cameras and lenses to capture the perfect wildlife photos! Back at the lodge, they enjoyed exceptional service from the friendly lodge staff, and they loved their luxurious suite with their own private deck.
Their Best of South African Luxury: Relaxation and Adventure vacation was a dream from beginning to end. Our clients couldn't decide which part of the trip was their favorite, and they promised to return to South Africa in a few years to do it all again!

Many of us have been asked about the characteristics of a great manager. What did he or she do to make you feel motivated, recognized and valued as a team member? Transferring the question to address the qualities of a great leader in every area of life might be helpful if you are lacking motivation in your current job or assignment.
What comes to mind when reflecting on people around you who you consider to be characterized as Advancing Leaders, inspiring you to follow and take action?
When I look back at my own career in corporate, I was influenced by a number of great leaders. One of them I never met in person, I just interacted with him via telephone conferences and email. Reflecting back on what made him such a great leader to me, made me realize that there were certain qualities that inspired me to challenge myself beyond expectations and advance in my own leadership.
The characteristics below might help you as well when recalling the qualities of formal and informal Advancing Leaders in your own various environments:
An Advancing Leader always wants to learn more
You will recognize them constantly pursuing new skills and perspectives, striving for new insights and continuous development. They are inspiring their followers by teaching what they learn. The teaching is often spontaneous and comprehensive, adding tremendous value to their followers.
An Advancing Leader shares with others
The most inspiring leaders share other professionals' content with credit as well as their own content in a personal way. They are frequent sharers, aiming at attracting new opportunities for others and themselves through abundance. They are successful in combining online and offline forums when sharing their content, and their followers see them as consistent across the forums.
An Advancing Leader demonstrates courage
Their confidence in managing the circumstances whilst focused on their mission goals, means they do not need all the answers nor any guarantees for success before kicking off their journey. Taking imperfect action is their method of reducing risk when making progress. The followers are inspired even if the leader is just a few steps ahead of them.
An Advancing Leader makes a difference
Their BIG WHY in business is more visible to themselves and others than for most, and this is contagious to their surroundings. The best of them are successful at relating their short-term priorities with their long-term vision in a trustworthy way. Their followers perceive them as highly inspirational when sharing the overall purpose.
An Advancing Leader never settles
They seem to miss the limiting belief of "I was not meant to stand out in a bigger way than what I was taught or told when younger." There is no age limit to these leaders when making a bold, new move in their career or personal lives, as they are actively looking for what is still undone. Their followers see them as unorthodox and challenging, leaving important thoughts and ideas behind to explore.
As a coach, mentor and consultant, I always look for answers to why I am passionate about working with some professionals and organizations more than others. This has nothing to do with traditional segmentation in terms of industry, geography or demographic. It has everything to do with their behavior. It has to do with their attitudes, response and ambition to make a difference as Advancing Leaders.
In which areas are you perceived as an Advancing Leader yourself? And more importantly, what is your potential when unleashing even more of the Advancing Leader in you? Pay attention to what drives your motivation to continuously learn more, improve and share content with others. When people around you see you as a professional on a certain mission, you know you are on the Advancing Leader path.
If you like this topic, you will love the Virtual Leader Conference coming up September 15-21, 2014 where more than 20 Advancing Leaders and experts are sharing their success strategies to empower other Advancing Leaders. You are welcome to join us on demand and free of charge via http://vlc14.katycaroan.com

Kerala Coconut Curry Beef Stew
Hot Fluffy Rice
Sunburst Apricots
Iced Tea, Lemonade or Fruit Drink
Creamy, spicy Kerala-style Beef Stew is served over bowls of hot, fluffy rice. Sunburst Apricots, with a hint of citrus, contrast brilliantly with the stew. This is one of those meals that always makes people wonder how something so sophisticated from come from canned goods. By the way, if you don't want to bother with the apricots simply serve canned peaches instead.
I use Great Value canned roast beef (in broth) for this recipe. As far as I can tell, it is free of both gluten and dairy. Canned roast beef in gravy is not gluten-free. It uses wheat to thicken the gravy. Roast beef canned in broth is not thickened, thus, no wheat or other starches.
Kerala Coconut Curry Beef Stew
Traditionally this is prepared with goat or lamb, but these are a bit challenging to find in a can at the local supermarket. I've substituted canned roast beef, and the results are quite tasty. My husband is especially fond of this combination.
Canned Goods
- 2 (12-ounce) cans roast beef in broth, undrained
- 1 (13-ounce) can coconut milk
- 1 (15-ounce) can sliced carrots, drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can sliced potatoes, drained
- 1 (15-ounce) jar baby onions, drained
Bag 1
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 2 teaspoons dry parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes or ground red pepper
To Store
Place all of the cans in your meal box. Measure the ingredients for Bag 1 into a small zipper bag or other resealable container. Stash it in the box with the cans.
To Prepare
Open all of the cans. Do drain the carrots, potatoes and onions. If possible rinse the potatoes and carrots in fresh water. If that's not possible, then don't worry about it. Drain the juice from both cans of beef into a 3-quart saucepan. Add the contents of Bag 1. Stir until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add the beef, coconut milk, carrots, potatoes and onions. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir frequently. When the mixture boils, reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve over rice.
While the stew is simmering you may prepare the instant rice. They should both be ready to eat at about the same time. If you are cooking regular white rice instead of instant, then prepare the rice first, before starting on the beef stew. It will be ready about the same time as the stew this way.
When I first prepared this meal my family was skeptical. I described it as coconut beef stew and, to be honest, they were faintly alarmed. To them beef stew was something prepared by Dinty Moore and served with wedges of cornbread. The idea of dumping a bunch of coconut into it and serving it over rice was less than appetizing. I begged from them a bit of grace and the results have been one of my family's favorite storage meals. This is not simply beef stew with a bunch of coconut added. It's a sophisticated and creamy combination of flavors that tastes like good restaurant food, not weird beef stew with coconut added. As my husband says, you can't really taste the coconut, just the creaminess.
In my opinion, the baby onions really make this dish, so if I were going to leave something out, it wouldn't be the onions.
If you like spicy foods then use 1/2-teaspoon of red pepper flakes. If you prefer mild fare, or are serving this to small children then use 1/8 to 1/4-teaspoon red pepper flakes.
Hot Fluffy Rice
Bag 1
4 cups instant white rice
32-ounces (4 cups) water
To Store
Measure the rice and place it in a zipper bag or plastic tub with a good lid. Place it in the meal box along with the bottled water.
To Prepare
In a 2-quart saucepan with a good lid, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Stir in the rice. Return the water to a boil. Cover the pot. Turn off the flame. If possible wrap the hot pot in a towel or blanket. Allow it to sit for 5 to 10 minutes (or longer if necessary). Use as desired. Makes about 8 cups of cooked rice.
Sunshine Apricots
Sweet, tangy and bursting with flavor, Sunshine Apricots are the perfect foil to creamy and spicy Kerala Beef Stew.
Dry Goods
- 1 (6 or 8 ounce) package dried apricots
- 1 tablespoon powdered Tang or Lemonade or 1 or 2 packets True Lemon or True Orange (or 1 of each)
- 16-ounces (2 cups) water
To Store
Place the apricot package into your meal box. Measure the Tang or Lemonade mix into a small bag. Label and seal. Add this, along with the water, to your meal box.
To Prepare
Place the apricots in a 1-quart saucepan. Add the water and the contents of the small bag. If possible, do this early in the day and allow the apricots to soak for several hours. If you can't do this, don't worry. But the cooking time will be a little longer.
Bring the apricots and their flavored water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and allow them to simmer until tender. If the apricots are well soaked this will be about 5 minutes. If they are dry then it may take up to 20 minutes. You can save fuel by simmering for 5 to 10 minutes, then covering the pot and wrapping it in a towel or blanket to keep it hot. Allow them to soak in the hot water for 30 minutes to an hour.
Any leftover cooking liquid can be added to the iced tea or fruit drink that you're serving with dinner. If you don't want to bother with Sunshine Apricots then you can replace them with a simple can of peaches, packed in fruit juice. If desired, cut the peaches into bite-sized pieces before serving, or just serve them straight from the can. The juice from the can is especially nice added to Iced Tea.
- 2-quarts to 1-gallon of water
- Your Favorite Instant Drink Mix
Determine if you will need 2-quarts or a full gallon of water to feed your crew. Measure enough Lemonade Mix or Instant Iced Tea or even kool-aid and sugar, to make the amount you need. If you prefer something sugar free like Crystal Light, that's fine too. Store it in a zipper bag. Label it and place it in your meal box along with everything else. Stored water has a flat flavor, so your meal will be more appealing if you flavor the water you serve.
If you store wine-in-a-box, then consider serving wine to the adults with this meal.

If there's one activity that you will certainly enjoy during your vacation that would certainly be bodysurfing. This is interesting, a lot more different to other activities and it enables you to get closer and closer to nature unlike never before. It's one of those things that pay off immensely as long as you have the proper gear. That's where the WaveWrecker comes into play.
This is a gear that was designed specifically for body surfing. It's basically a suit that was designed in order to help you go through waves faster and easier. It's also designed to offer you a very good value and quality without actually having to invest a lot of money as well. It can be used by children as well, something that does show the great immersion and quality that you can obtain from this type of product.
Thanks to WaveWrecker you will be able streamline waves and you will have the ability of doing that pretty much like a torpedo. It's a very interesting approach for sure and one that will help you quite a bit in the long run.
The product is suitable for beginners but it also works great for experienced shredders. It enables you to stay in water for a longer period of time and the overall performance is improved as well. That on its own helps provide an extensive value and the entire experience will be worth it.
One of the things you need to note about this suit is the fact that it's very efficient. It's created with great professionalism and value in mind but at the same time it isn't heavy at all. Instead, it's pretty easy to use and it will basically let you flow through waves at a very rapid pace. That, combined with the extra safety features like the fins you can find on it make it one of the best options for body surfers. Obviously you do need to keep in mind that you have to go through an extensive training before you become a body surfer.
Interview by Christopher Isak with Mike Van Nostram, Vice President of WaveWrecker
Chris: "How did you start? What gave you the idea to do this?"
Mike: "Nick our founder came up with this idea about 6 years ago while swimming with his son in the backyard pool. He was wading in the pool and took two pool noodles and put them under his arms.
It hit Nick, that if he could have this maneuverability in the water he could really do something different while in the ocean being a avid body surfer. Over the next 6 years Nick tried many different designs and concepts until he found the right materials, the correct fin locations and the correct flexibility needed to allow you to become one with the water while being extremely buoyant."
Chris: "Is the device safe to use? Have you thought of integrating other products into the suite, like the Kingii Wearable?"
Mike: "This device is extremely safe for people of all ages. This suit allows you to be buoyant floating without any energy what so-ever giving the average swimmer the ability to enjoy and body of water while feeling safe in this suit. We have many other product designs that are in testing mode currently."
Chris: "Can you describe the feeling of riding the waves with your body?"
Mike: "Wearing this suit will change the way you think about doing anything in the water. The suit turns you into a wave riding mammal. You are buoyant which get you up on top of the water like you are on a board, but now you are the board.
You feel as if you are a seal riding thru the face of the waves, with the fins on the suit you cut left and right at ease with complete control, there is nothing like this suit….just add the water."
Even if it sounds fun, it's a lot of work to do this sport and you do need to think about that when you choose to do the sport and use the WaveWrecker. If you do use it, you will have a great time and enjoy a very good experience!
At less than $300 for adults and a little over $220 for kids, the WaveWrecker is a very good investment if you want to check out this sport or even become a pro at it. Again, a good training is necessary but it will definitely be worth it so you should totally consider trying this out for sure!

Crater Lake Resort: This campground is located in Fort Klamath, Oregon, 17 miles south of the park entrance. It is closed during winter months. Some of the amenities are as follows:
Your First Visit to Crater Lake National Park
The formation of this incredible lake came about from a huge eruption of Mount Mazama, which left a gigantic caldera. This filled with rain and snow over the centuries to create the lake you see today. The lake is over 1,900 feet deep and is the deepest lake in the U.S.
You will see within the lake an island, called Phantom Ship because its shape resembles a sailing ship. On this island violet green swallows nest and you will see a number of species of wildflowers. The tallest spires reach 170 feet above the water.
To experience all the best of the park you can get out into the wilderness by hiking with the family or taking part in ranger-guided programs. Many love the Crater Lake boat tours while others prefer to go on a historic trolley from Rim Village around the lake, with plenty of stops for photo opportunities. Remember though, that access to the boat tour requires some strenuous hiking for 2.2 miles.
Things to Do
There are activities in Crater Lake National Park that are great for any age. Here is just a short list of things to make it a point to see.
Where to Find More Information
You can find more information about the park at the Crater Lake National Park website. Before you come, check for any road closures on the Current Conditions page. The National Weather Service provides a page with details on the temperatures and conditions in the park.

Colin Kaepernick's Agent Wants QB Traded Out Of San Francisco
After weeks of wait and speculation, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick looks like wants out of San Francisco. The quarterback's agent has reportedly requested a trade from the team.
Last season in 9 games, Kaepernick threw for 1,615 yards, 6 touchdowns, 5 interceptions, with a passer rating of 78.5. He also rushed for 254 yards, 1 touchdown, fumbling the ball 4 times, in 45 attempts. Kapernick had a nightmare of a season, leading him to being benched for Blaine Gabbert and ending his season on injured reserve with a shoulder injury.
Kaepernick last season he was just in the wrong system, with a coaching staff that was trying to make him a pocket passer. Kapernick is more of a duel threat type of quarterback, someone who can run and pass effectively. It does not surprise me that he does not want to be San Francisco after what transpired this past season.
One team that could have an interest for him are the Houston Texans. They are in need of a franchise quarterback if they want to compete in the AFC. Kaepernick could be that franchise quarterback they've been searching for. He has playoff experience and even Super Bowl experience. Kaepernick could fit well in the Bill O'Brien offensive system.
No matter what happens in the next few weeks leading up to free agency, one thing is for sure: the chances that Kaepernick stays with the 49ers after this offseason are small.

Te Araroa Trail – Richmond Ranges – Tarn hut to Top Wairoa hut
We had a great sleep in the tent last night and woke to a chorus of bird song at Tarn hut. Blair had heard birds in the night too, which he thought might be Kiwi. I was out like a light and didn't hear a thing!
There was a light mist floating across the tarn as we set off at 7.30am.
Today was all about the forest and the river. We spent the morning in beautiful undulating beech forest.. nothing too strenuous.
We reached Mid Wairoa hut 7kms later at around 10.15am and had had a long break in the hot sun. Sita was already at the hut and shot off ahead of us. She was going to skip two huts today and make it further along the track than us.
Mid Wairoa to Top Wairoa hut
We set off again at 11am. The next 7km stretch to Top Wairoa hut was more slow going and followed the left branch of the Wairoa river.
The Wairoa River – Mid Wairoa to Top Wairoa hut
This was probably one of my most favourite river stretches on Te Araroa trail. The sun was out, the river was low, and the frequent crossings were easy. There was a fair amount of sidling up and down steep river banks which made things interesting. Combined with the number of photo stops I made, our progress was slow.
En-route I discovered a patch of stinging nettles in a hand-hold, which was pretty inconvenient, and Blair was stung by a wasp.
We walked ahead of Flo for most of the day, as his knees were beginning to give him some pain. He only started Te Araroa trail on the South Island, so was just a couple of weeks into his journey. His pack was pretty heavy and he was seriously considering hitching out to Nelson after the Richmonds to make some gear changes.
We met and passed Taylor, a Canadian guy, after about an hour or so. He was carrying an enormous pack and had a banjo strapped to the outside of it. (When we googled the weight of a banjo later, we discovered they can weigh upwards of 5kgs!!!). He was going very slowly and we wondered how he would ever manage the slippery, rocky scrambles, extremely narrow ledges and frequent river crossings.
Top Wairoa hut
We reached Top Wairoa hut around mid-afternoon and met David – a Canadian hiker hiking the South Island, who Taylor had tagged along with.
A couple of hours later Taylor still hadn't appeared. So far it had taken him over 7 hours to hike the river stretch. Blair and David went back out down the river to look for him, afraid he might be stuck somewhere, or unable to continue. Thankfully, he was only a short way away, and was able to make it up the hill and set up his tent.
Tonight was Christmas Eve. Flo had arrived, and we cut a small branch of foliage and made a Christmas tree. We decorated it with gold paper from a packet of chocolates I had. When Blair arrived back we played some cards then ate dinner.
David joined us a little later, and we watched the Christmas movie 'Love Actually' huddled around my phone. A little while later Carol and Lulu arrived having had a long day from Tarn hut.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes
11:17 idol shepherd. Because Israel will reject her Good Shepherd, God will send a foolish shepherd (Zechariah 11:15) who will seek to destroy them (Zechariah 11:16). He becomes an "idol" shepherd by demanding they worship him instead of the true Shepherd (Matthew 24:15-16; II Thessalonians 2:3-4; Revelation 13:14-15). He is, of course, the Beast, or Antichrist.

Tricks On How To Get Whiter Teeth
Teeth whitening is something that a lot of people don't consider as a necessity. However, even for those who aren't that conscious of or bothered by their stained teeth, they'll be amazed at how liberating it feels once they get their teeth whitened. This article will show you the best way to get your teeth whitened.
A big part of helping your teeth get whiter and stay that way is with constant flossing. Try getting a bunch of floss packets for places where you always are such as your home, office, car, etc. To effectively use it when not around a mirror, train yourself to floss with your eyes closed.
The people to experience the best results with teeth whitening are those that have a yellowish tint to their teeth. If your teeth are more of a brownish color, you will only see a slight difference. If your teeth are more of a gray color, you will see little to no effect from the whitening process.
Avoid wearing shirts that are bright white if you want to hide a less than perfect smile. The white shade will only make any stains on your teeth even more obvious. Choose off white or cream colors that will help avoid your stains looking worse. Smile big in the morning after you've gotten dressed to see if your outfit is hurting you.
Rinsing out your mouth is a great way to keep your teeth white. It gets rid of any food or drink that might still be on your teeth. It also cuts down on plaque. Try to make sure you rinse out your mouth after every meal.
As a woman, the selection you make in terms of your lipstick or lipgloss instantly affects the shade of your teeth. One of the most versatile and neutral shades to making your teeth appear whiter are nude pinks with a brownish undertone. This will even out your complexion, finish your look, and make your teeth look great,too!
Before beginning any kind of a teeth whitening program, be sure to visit your dentist and have a thorough cleaning and check up. This could actually be all that you need for a nice, white smile. It will also allow your dentist to check your gums because these whitening treatments should not be used when the gums are inflamed.
When you are going through a teeth whitening process, you may experience sensitivity. Sensitivity during the whitening is very common. The sensitivity should disappear within a day or two after the process is over. If you have continued sensitivity, you should consult with your dentist about the problem that you are having.
A great at-home product that you can use to get whiter teeth is a strawberry. The natural ingredients in strawberries have been proven to whiten teeth. You can cut the strawberry in half and use the part without the stem to rub on your teeth. Rinse it off after 5 minutes.
Whitening your teeth can boost your self-image and self confidence. Implement some of the advice presented in the tips above, and you can have whiter teeth in the near future.

Caddie 16 and above
I am adding an extension to an existing building, but the walls cleanup (merge) with those of the existing building. How can I stop this happening?
Walls only clean-up witt other walls in the same Cleanup group. So all that needs to be done is to create a new Cleanup group and assign the NEW walls to that group.
Using AEC Style Manager from the AEC menu go to the section as shown below:
Select the wall Cleanup Group Definitions text and create a New group with whatever name you want.
Once done just reassign the new walls to this group in object properties and the walls will no longer merge.

Still waiting on that bonus to arrive? Worked some overtime and it hasn't made it to your paycheck yet? When you are short on cash, it can be stressful. You count on your paycheck arriving with the right amount, but sometimes there are delays. Other times you might get paid correctly, but it's just not enough to cover the household emergencies that have popped up between pay cycles.
When you run into trouble with your paycheck, you need cash. This can create a tremendous amount of stress, and you don't want to increase your stress by begging your family for money or trying to borrow funds from a friend. Fortunately, you don't have to let everyone know your personal business. Instead, you can easily and discretely borrow the money you need through quick payday loans.
Payday loans are designed to be quick and easy. They are loans with small amounts that are designed to be repaid quickly – often in a matter of weeks. The application is simple, and repaying the loan is just as easy. When money gets tight, payday loans help to bridge the gap.

By Lily Rozenstrauch
For Mitzpeh
David Rosenstein, a sophomore pursuing a dual degree in marketing and management, lit up when talking about this university's positive qualities.
In addition to the school's academics, he said the great amount of student pride drew him in. When he visited the campus for the first time, Rosenstein felt like students "bled red black and gold."
His tour guide inspired Rosenstein to become a tour guide as well. Being part of Images Campus Tour Guides is now one of his favorite activities. Rosenstein is involved with many other organizations on campus, including Quest, a multidisciplinary honors program, UMD Scholars, Hillel, and LGBT organizations such as Hamsa.
His involvement with Hillel is part of his Jewish identity on campus. During his freshman year, Rosenstein only went to Hillel once a week for Friday night services and Shabbat dinner. It was not until Passover that year, that he felt a deeper connection to the organization. Now, Rosenstein eats at Hillel everyday.
Rosenstein is also involved in Ometz, an egalitarian community on campus based in Conservative Judaism. Rosenstein has grown from his beginnings at Hillel attending services once a week to leading services and helping out as much as he can.
"My favorite trait about David is his genuine happiness and desire for others to be happy. There is never a day I see David and he doesn't go out of his way to ask how I am and make sure I am okay," said Ariana Riske, who knows Rosenstein from Quest. Riske is a sophomore operations management and information systems major.
They also work on the Smith Undergraduate Association executive board together, on which Rosenstein is the vice president in marketing.
"This list is relative to all the things I could be involved with," he said.
Rosenstein said there is so much more he could participate in but he is only involved with activities he truly feels passionate about. In addition, he delegates tasks to other members in his activities and said he is not afraid to ask fellow members of the programs to help him out every once in a while.
He's so active in his activities that they double as a social life for Rosenstein, who has developed close friendships through the extracurriculars. However, he said nothing he is involved with is "purely social" because he derives a particular meaning out of everything he participates in.
"[I'm] more interested in the general culture on campus rather than sports," Rosenstein said.
Rosenstein raved about one of his general education courses, "Pocketbook Politics: A History of American Buying and Selling."
"[It was] one of the most captivating and eye opening classes I have ever taken," he said.
Rosenstein's other favorite course, the UMD Scholars class on enterprise communication inspired him to lead a TED Talk imitation for his class on how labels affect identities. Rosenstein explained the main theme his talk encompassed was how you present yourself and how other people view you as a result of that.
"It is rare you find someone as beautifully kindhearted as David, and he is truly someone special," said Riske. "I have no doubt in the future he will spread his magic and make the world a more energetic and passionate place."

Another eco-stunt?
We thought that leading in to the Xmas season
we might try something different. Instead of the usual going on in a fairly monotone, wordy, loquacious way (well, I try not to be too monotone) we might go 'word-free' for a month on this blog.
A greenie blog, free of words (well, as far as possible) for a whole month! The underlying message is (and no doubt you have guessed it already) that greenies are too wordy, for words!
So it will be a month of inspiring images, mostly word free advertisement ideas, and eco-cartoons.
Then we will come back on 'wordy' board, by mid January in time for a post about how our preparation is going for the exhibition in February.
If all goes well, by March, we might have another word-free blog month.
If you just think this is another eco-stunt, why not check out my book where I discuss the very topic of ec0-stunts.
