Proposed Hanover park receives $50,000 donationBy MEGHAN PIERCE
Union Leader Correspondent
August 20. 2017 11:16PM
HANOVER — A town park that will showcase sustainable landscaping techniques is being planned for behind the Hanover Town Hall.
The School Street Park will be located on an empty town-owned lot between School Street and the municipal parking lot behind Hanover Town Hall.
The Sustainable Hanover Committee spearheaded the project as a way to inspire and educate the public on how to create sustainable landscapes, said committee member Larry Litten.
Fundraising for the project is underway, Litten said, but a recent a donation from the Jack and Dorothy Byrne Foundation of $50,000 has taken a big chunk out of the expected $88,400 overall cost of the project.
A landscape architect and a landscape designer sitting on the committee have donated their talents to the project, saving on costs. The city-owned land has been a vacant lot for many years, but once had a house on it used by the town as a community center Litten said.
"We hope construction will start next spring," he said.
One of the bigger features to be highlighted in the park will be a rain garden that will capture stormwater runoff.
"We hope to actually drain the stormwater out of a large section of a parking lot, preventing it from going straight back into the Connecticut River," Litten said.
The park will also feature the use of native plants, ways to reduce lawn space, a pollinator habitat and edible landscaping.
The park also will include play areas for children and a sitting area.
"We also think that we just need to promote the concept of people slowing down and enjoying nature," Litten said.
A website will also be created as an accompanying resource for the public, he said.

Ellen Pompeo: Ice Cream Sunday with Mother-In-Law!
Ellen Pompeo dons stripes while grabbing some ice cream with her mother-in-law on Sunday (October 28) in Beverly Hills, Calif.
The 42-year-old actress was seen showing her soft side by helping a homeless woman with some change before stepping into her car.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Ellen Pompeo
Ellen's Grey's Anatomy co-star Patrick Dempsey recently talked about how their relationship has evolved over the years.
"We're like a married couple at this point. We've been together for nine years. We've gone through everything. We have a lot of fun." Patrick shared. "You go through all the emotions because you're spending a lot of time together. [There are days when] you go, 'Oh, OK. You're obviously in a bad mood. I'll come back in about 10 minutes.' And then you get on with it."

Yes, what is the reason for your statement above, gdub411?
"You go 50 feet and come to a Y."
A solo comment like "It's GREAT" or "Useless!" is, in itself, useless. You have to actually give feedback as to why you decided to post and make your comment. Good examples could be like, "Great! The way you have lots of individual themes for different games makes this site very useful," or, "Useless - this site blows because there are no pages that deal with MY game system!"
A one word comment shows that you have no real interest in either helping this site get better - and/or that you don't have the ability to communicate successfully.
Perhaps he has been unable to connect with any other players.
It took me about a year to connect with another player via this board. Then things went well for awhile until one player took out the game. Actually, took out the game with another group too. lol
So, I don't think it is this board that is useless. Seems to me that gamers are a fickle sort, and rather noncommittal. Have you ever went to a local convention and tried to get gamers to join a group? More like kicking a dead cow up a steep hill. We all come to this site looking for others to join with for fun and adventure, but what we get is many long distance friends whom we will more than likely never get the chance to meet, let alone game with. Since the beginning I put up a notice to find some local gamers. Currently have about 1700 views, only one reply, no gamers. I joined this site years ago, still waiting. Site is not useless, just not for finding gamers.

Though Spring has been here for a couple of months, it certainly has not felt like it all the time… particularly in the NW. However, temps are finally getting up there and I'm ready to pop open some wines that fit the weather. Style wise, for whites, we're talking Light & Crisp. Reds mean Light & Fruity.
In whites, three perfect choices are Sauvignon Blanc, Albarino and Chenin Blanc. My picks are:
Montes Leyda Sauvignon Blanc 2008
I recently arranged this to be the white for a rehearsal dinner party in April. People who thought they did not like white wine – or were usually beer drinkers – LOVED this wine. As did I. There was not a drop left by the end of the night (as you could see by some of the moves on the dance floor). It is wonderfully aromatic; citrus-driven, a touch of grass and herbal notes, and so deliciously crisp. The Leyda region in Chile is very cool and this wine shows how great the region is at Sauvignon Blanc.
Bonny Doon Ca' Del Solo Albarino 2008
I said it once, I'll say it again: I've not yet met a Bonny Doon wine I didn't like. And I mean really like. This Albarino is a perennial favorite. Even in the cold weather it's a delicious aperitif or pairing with seafood. But it just tastes so delicious in the spring. It's what I'd call CLEAN. Bright apple fruits, crisp backbone, citrus and some herb notes. Made with Biodynamic farming, which may be from where its sense of purity comes.
Mulderbosch Chenin Blanc 2009
Another favorite, particularly for the price. Chenin Blanc is a grape that South Africa does VERY well and Mulderbosch is makes a classic version. Again, we're talking Light & Crisp, so you're going to get citrus, and bright acid. But you also get some riper tropical fruits in this one, with kick of spice, too.
Moving on to red recommendations…
Beaujolais, Pinot Noir & Cotes-du-Rhone are my top wines for Spring. Some of my picks include:
Duboeuf Fleurie Domaine des Quatre Vents 2008
Do not be fooled – Beaujolias, particularly "cru" Beaujolais is good stuff! Duboeuf is a classic producer of Beaujolais, the large region in the south of Burgundy producing bright wines from the Gamay grape grown on granite soils. When you talk Beaujolais, you're talking bright red fruit, some spice and acidity, but the key term for me here is bright. It's a red wine that is light and almost crisp. Perfect for warmer weather and light foods.
Escarpment Over the Edge Pinot Noir 2008
I love this wine. Mainly because I was so impressed when I tasted it and found out it was under $15! This is a "savory" style Pinot Noir, with lots of berry fruit, some sweet spice and some spicy spice, as well as a touch of dried herbs. Just lovely all over. Good finish, great for a juicy burger or some grilled salmon.
For my Cotes-du-Rhone, I have two picks. And they are both a bit more pricey, but totally worth it I think as they are from Cairanne. Cairanne is my favorite "villages" of the CDR and I think it will the next "cru" (the way Gigondas, Vacqueyras & Vinsobres were upgraded). Your choices are:
Dom. de L'Oratoire St Martin Cairanne Cuvee Prestige 2007 or Domaine Alary Cotes du Rhone Villages Cairanne 2007
Both wines are full of upfront fruit and sweet spice. The Oratoire St Martin has quite a bit of Mourvedre in the blend, so you will get more peppery spice notes and some earthy tones. The Alary (which I am very partial to) is more on the rich, sweet spice side, with a silky smooth texture. Either way, you're getting great grill-friendly wines that are perfect for spring.
Let your voice be heard! Make sure you review wines you like – and don't like – in our community at Wine.com. We think customers should hear not just the experts opinion, but yours as well!

Aino Kannisto is both the protagonist and photographer of her staged scenes. "The person in the picture is a fictional narrator in the same way there are narrators in literature," she has said. "My pictures are fantasies. I represent an atmosphere or a mood through fictional characters. Fantasy is a means to speak about emotions." Kannisto captures emotional states and short snippets of narrative in her work through careful staging and choice of props and costume. She cites Nan Goldin, Diane Arbus, Sally Mann, and Francesca Woodman among her influences.

How To Boil Potatoes
Boiling potatoes is neither exciting nor particularly sexy, as far as cooking skills go, but it is quite handy! All our favorite dishes from potato salad for a summer cookout to mashed potatoes for the Thanksgiving table start with — oh yes! — boiling a pot of potatoes.
Whether you're boiling your first potato tonight or wonder if you've been doing it right, here's a step-by-step guide showing you exactly how to boil potatoes.
How To Boil Potatoes: Watch the Video
Why Boil Potatoes?
Besides "because your recipe said so!" you might boil potatoes if you don't want them to dry out (as they do in the oven). Generally, you boil potatoes when you plan to mash them or toss them into a salad, though boiled potatoes can also make a quick side dish. Boiling also cooks potatoes very evenly all the way through and usually only takes 10 to 20 minutes.
Which Potatoes to Boil?
Waxy or all-purpose potatoes are the best candidates for boiling. They hold their shape when boiled and have a nice creamy texture once cooked. They are also usually smaller — usually no bigger than your fist — and thin-skinned, so they cook more quickly. Waxy and all-purpose potatoes might be red or golden or purple; take a look at this guide for Sixteen Kinds of Potatoes to see what kind you're dealing with.
You can also boil starchy potatoes like Russets — I have friends who swear by mashed potatoes made with Russets! Starchy potatoes tend to fall apart or become water-logged when boiled, so I recommend boiling them whole instead of cubed.
Whole Potatoes or Cubed? Skins On or Peeled?
You can boil potatoes either whole or cubed — both ways work fine. In either case, the key is to make sure the whole potatoes or cubed potatoes are roughly the same size. This way, they will all cook at the same rate. If you're boiling whole potatoes, you might need to remove small potatoes from the water a little sooner and let larger potatoes cook a little longer.
Check out a few other ways to cook potatoes. Watch the video!
You can technically boil potatoes with their skins on or off, but I recommend leaving the skins on. They tend to cook better, without going mushy, if you leave the skins on. It's also very easy to peel off the skins after the potatoes are cooked.

How To Boil Potatoes
What You Need
Waxy or all-purpose potatoes
1 teaspoon salt
Chef's knife (optional)
Slotted spoon
- Prepare the potatoes: Scrub the potatoes clean. If desired, cut the potatoes into large, evenly-sized cubes.
- Transfer the potatoes to a saucepan and cover with cold water: Cover the potatoes with an inch or two of cold water. Starting the potatoes in cold water helps them cook more evenly.
- Stir in a teaspoon of salt: Stir the salt into the water so that it dissolves.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer: Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a bare simmer to cook the potatoes. Do not cover. (Covering changes the environment in the pot and can make the potatoes turn mushy.)
- Check the potatoes after 5 minutes: Cubed potatoes will cook more quickly than whole potatoes; smaller potatoes will cook more quickly than larger potatoes. Begin checking the potatoes after around 5 minutes of boiling; most potatoes will be done in 10 to 20 minutes.
- Potatoes are done when tender: The potatoes are done when they are tender all the way through. You can test this by poking the potato with a fork, paring knife, or skewer. If the utensil slides easily all the way to the center, the potatoes are done.
- Drain the potatoes: Drain cubed potatoes into a strainer or lift whole potatoes out with a slotted spoon. If you're recipe calls for cold potatoes, you can run the potatoes under cold water or dunk them in an ice water bath to cool them down more quickly.

Inquiry Question
Transcription of selected text from Document 1.
The U. S. Constitution requires the population of the country to be counted every ten years. In the 1800s and into the 1900s, census enumerators visited every property, recording the name, age, marital status, place of origin, race, occupation and value of real estate for each person they found. The census administrators created racial categories, such as white, black, and mulatto, with which each individual was to be classified by the enumerators. Census reports were used to determine the number of Congressmen who would represent the state in the House of Representatives and to set up tax districts. This document is a page from the 1850 United States federal census listing Frank McWorter and all the people living in the McWorter household the day the census was recorded. Note how the census enumerator spelled McWorter."
The census records do not identify exactly where people lived. Because we know that Frank McWorter lived directly outside New Philadelphia, it is likely that the people listed after his family lived in the town. Information found in land deeds, maps, and historical reports also helped define who lived there.
Questions for Document 1
1. Why do you think government officials required census enumerators to identify every citizen in the country by name?
2. According to this page, where was Frank McWorter born? How much real estate did he own?
* The image on this screen is small and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a larger version of Document 1, but be aware that the file will take as much as 32 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

The JRC has developed an experimental global storm surge model, which is run after each advisory issued by the
regional tropical cyclone centres. The calculations are published about 20 minutes after a new advisory is detected
by GDACS. The calculations identify the populated places affected by storm surge up to three days in advance, using the
forecasted track. When forecasts change, the associated storm surge changes too and alert levels may go up or down.
This report is for advisory number 28 of tropical cyclone SHANSHAN-18 issued at 9 Aug 2018 12:00:00 (GDACS Event ID 1000478).
Current impact estimate:
Previous calculations: see calculation for advisory number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

The atmospheric forcing included in the storm surge model are the pressure drop and the wind-water friction.

Consistently good quality and price on my previous orders and I have no hesitation in recommending the Callebaut 100% cocoa powder to my family and friends. Delivery is always prompt, within the time frame specified and well packaged.

Excellent cocoa powder from Callebaut, very keenly priced by Chocolate Trading Co. I use it for dusting home made truffles - a non stop job as Christmas approaches - and making delicious hot chocolate drinks as the nights grow darker.Their customer services team were very helpful in explaining Dutched cocoa powder to me over the phone, before I placed my order online along with some Christmas chocolates for gifts. My whole order arrived 2 days earlier than expected and was expertly packed.

The Dutch process results in a cocoa powder with a neutral pH (not acidic like natural cocoa). This means it cannot be used in recipes that use baking soda as the leavening agent, which relies on the acidity of the cocoa to activate it. Rather, Dutch process cocoa can be used in recipes that use baking powder for leavening.
Why is it called the dutch process?
The Dutch process was developed in the early 19th century by a Dutch chocolate maker Coenraad Johannes van Houten. This development greatly expanded the use of chocolate, which had been mostly used as a beverage in Europe until that time.
What does the Dutch or alkalise process do?
Dutch Process Cocoa or Alkalized Unsweetened Cocoa Powder has been treated with an alkali to neutralize its natural acidity. Due to this neutral nature it will not react with baking soda, it must be used in recipes calling for baking powder, unless there are other acidic ingredients in sufficient quantities used. It has a dark reddish-brown colour and is easy to dissolve in liquids.
In short the Dutch process has the following effects on the product:
1. Lowers the acidity levels
2. Increases solubility of the product
3. Enhances the overall color
4. Presents a smoother flavor

While we continue to see a growing need for mental health providers in the VA, there is a large, untapped pool of highly-qualified mental health professionals ready to be enlisted to help provide services to veterans. Nationwide, there are more than 120,000 professional counselors licensed for mental health practice across the country, meeting education and training requirements on par with or more stringent than those of other master's level mental health professionals, such as clinical social workers and marriage and family therapists. Licensed professional counselors must have a master's degree in counseling, pass a national exam, accumulate thousands of hours of post-master's supervision, and adhere to a strict code of ethics.
In December of 2006, Congress and the President enacted legislation explicitly recognizing licensed professional mental health counselors as clinicians within VA facilities (P.L. 109-461). Almost four years later, the VA adopted an occupational standard for "licensed professional mental health counselors" (LPMHC) within the VA. Two years after the standard was adopted, and going on nearly seven years after the enactment of P.L. 109-461, licensed professional counselors are still being largely shut out of the VA mental health workforce. This deprives veterans of access to the best possible pool of highly qualified mental health providers. In 2012, the VA only posted 58 positions for licensed professional mental health counselors nationwide; during this time, the VA posted 1527 mental health clinician positions as open only to social workers. How You Can Help
1. Expand the eligibility criteria for LPMHC positions to include mental health counselors who:
Hold at least a master's degree in counseling from a regionally accredited program; Are licensed as a professional counselor in a U.S. jurisdiction at the highest level of licensure offered; and Passes the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling (NCMHCE) Exam. (The VA's current occupational standard does not include any specific examination requirements.)

Home (safety) for the holidaysDecember 21, 2012
It's hard to believe the holidays are already here. As I have frantically baked cookies, mailed holiday cards and waited in long lines for the perfect gift, I couldn't help but people-watch. I've encountered my share of fellow shoppers that should be posted on various websites for their holiday spirit, or lack thereof.

Vt. breaks up unlicensed hunting preserve

Vt. breaks up unlicensed hunting preserve
200 animals remain on the property
FAIRLEE, Vt. —
The Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife says wardens have broken up an unlicensed captive hunting facility in Fairlee where people paid up to $6,000 to hunt exotic animals such as buffalo, sika deer, and Texas dall sheep.
The state on Friday charged 51-year-old Steven Hill and 21-year-old Chiaki Ito, both of Fairlee, in the case after two undercover game wardens paid $750 each to hunt a Spanish goat and wild boar.
Hill and Ito are charged with operating the "Hunt the Ridge" captive hunting facility. They are alleged to have charged visitors up to $6,000 to hunt exotic wild animals.
The state says about 200 animals remain on the property.
Hill and Ito scheduled to appear in court next month in Chelsea.

i am happy to see the YouTube video posted and not waiting for days. It shows dedication and reliability for news and hardware. Love the show.
Thanks, we are trying!
Excellent job you two.
BTW, I am the only other person in the world who has never owned a laptop; I only own a very basic cell phone, but do a pay as you go $10 every three months, and never use the time up. I do, however, have a bunch of very cool pc's that I use all the time. I still read the laptop reviews to keep up on the tech so I can advise friends and family.
This was a rather poor podcast this week. Need you back Ryan! I don't know if it was the annoying Canadian accent or the mustache or maybe both. James Hetfield called he wants his 1991 look back.
^Those were unnecessary comments, maybe borderline racist. No need to troll here, is there?
BTW i liked the relaxed feel of this podcast, just like hangin out being nerdy.
The video was wonderful. Thank you!

Anyone who knows me casually will likely come to the conclusion that I am a rather cooperative guy, and that would be true. I got a Masters degree in Library Science, a very cooperative field, at a school, not necessarily coincidently, dominated by women students. Whereas, a decade earlier, I had dropped out of a Masters program in Public Administration, where the students were far more competitive, and not so incidentally, far more male.
The classic example: when I would be in the library trying to find a resource in the PA program, and couldn't find it, there was a good chance that someone else had, and had hidden it to make it more difficult for others; really zero sum. Whereas the library folks Read the rest of this entry »

Explosive, Controversial Tragedy to Strike The Vampire DiariesMatt Richenthal at . Comments
It certainly sounds like another death is coming to Mystic Falls.
Asked by E! News what fans can expect in the near future on The Vampire Diaries Season 4, Nina Dobrev couldn't have been less specific - or more ominous - in teasing:
"Something happens in the near future, something pretty tragic and terrible and kind of show changing. It's going to really affect every single person. It's going to especially affect Damon, Elena and Stefan in a pretty crazy, controversial way. The whole show is going to shift. It's going to be explosive."
Might Jeremy somehow be kicking the bucket? What other character is connected closely to Stefan, Elena and Damon?
Let your own theories fly in the Comments section below and/or our Vampire Diaries forum and visit E! for even more Spoiler Chat now.

Update: Meb wins Olympic Marathon Trial, Hastings 4th, Deena 6th
Meb Keflizighi of the Mammoth Track Club won the U.S. National Marathon Olympic Trial Saturday in Houston, setting a personal record along the way.
Ryan Hall, a former Mammoth runner who split away from the Mammoth Track Club more than a year ago, placed second.
On the women's side, Amy Hastings and Deena Kastor of the Mammoth Track Club finished fourth and sixth, respectively. With only three spots available to qualify for the team, both finished just barely out of the money.
"I gave everything I had to make this Olympic team and fell short of reaching this goal," said Kastor on Facebook and obviously disappointed. "Thanks to the organizing committee, all the spectators and volunteers who made it a Trials to remember for so many."
Shalane Flanagan an Oregon runner who trained in Mammoth last summer finally broke free of her final challenger, Desiree Davila, heading back into downtown and won the women's race.
Flanagan, a native of Marblehead, Mass., finished in 2:25:38 to earn a third trip to the Olympics. She won a bronze medal in Beijing in 2008 in the 10,000 meters after running the 5,000 meters in Athens in 2004.
The 30-year-old Flanagan's winning time was more than three minutes quicker than her previous personal best, a 2:28:40 in her debut marathon in New York in 2010. Flanagan, Davila (2:25:55) and third-place finisher Kara Goucher (2:26:06) will represent the U.S. in the marathon in London this summer.
All three women ran faster than the previous record American women in the trials, Colleen De Reuck's 2:28:25 in 2004.
Kastor led most of the way but fell back near the end.
With the victories, both Keflizighi and Hall made the three-man U.S Olympic Team Men's team that will represent the U.S. this summer at the 2012 Olympics in London.
Keflizighi, 36, covered the course in 2 hours, 9 minutes and eight seconds. At 36, Meb is the oldest Men's Olympic Trial Marathon champion.
"I am incredibly excited and proud to be representing the United States in London next summer," said Keflezighi. "And to come in first while setting a new PR at the Trials is icing on the cake. New York was only 69 days ago and in that short time I did what I could to maintain focus on today's race while training at high altitudes."
Afterward, Meb celebrated, in his way, until finally arriving back in his hotel room after midnight.
"I just got back to my room after a delicious home cooked meal and fun at families house with my parents, Yordanos and the kid," he tweeted.
A resident of Mammoth and a former UCLA distance champion, Keflizighi set a personal best Saturday. He won a silver medal in the 2004 Olympics in Athens.
Hall, a fixture in the Mammoth running scene, won the 2008 Olympic trial in a record 2.09.02.
Placing third on Saturday was Olympic veteran Abdi Abdirahman.
Among ther notable Mammoth Track Club athletes, Josh Cox placed 14th, Patrick Smyth 22nd place and Jennifer Rhines 64th. John Urdi of Mammoth Lakes tourism said he is working with Dion Agee at the Village for a reception for the Mammoth athletes.
"This is HUGE news for us and we need to celebrate it," he said in an email. "Meb is the oldest man at 36 to ever win the Olympic Marathon trials and with him winning Silver in Athens he will surely be a human interest story as we approach the Olympics in London this summer."
Actually, Hastings could be joining him.
By finishing fourth among the women, Hastings became the alternate, should any of the top three falter or choose not to go.
Said Urdi after the race: "After speaking with the women's distance coach for the Olympics – she thinks there is a very good chance one of the other women in the top three will choose to compete in another event (10,000m) leaving a spot for Amy on the women's Olympic Marathon team.
"We won't know about this until after the track trials in Eugene at the end of June, but it looks promising."
Meanwhile, the Mammoth Track Club won the Allan Steinfeld Development Award winner.
The development award was named after Allan Steinfeld, a long-time leader in the sport, who jump-started the U.S. distance running resurgence when as head of the New York Road Runners he allocated $20,000 seed money ($1 per U.S. entry at the 2000 New York City Marathon) for the development program Team USA Distance Running.
The team, launched in November 2000, produced training groups such as Team Running USA (two Olympic medals in 2004 and major marathon wins) and Team USA Minnesota (winner of the inaugural development award) and inspired the formation of others.
Also, Mammoth attorney and Town Councilman Rick Wood won his age group in Sunday's Houston Marathon, making for a big day for Mammoth in distance running.

CAMBRIDGE, UK – Mar. 12, 2003 – ARM [(LSE:ARM); (Nasdaq:ARMHY)], the industry's leading provider of 16/32-bit embedded RISC processor solutions, today announced the availability of version 2.0 of its RealView® Compilation Tools , a component of the RealView development solution supporting the new ARM C/C++ EABI (Embedded Applications Binary Interface) standard.
Embedded software developers face increasing demands to create highly reliable systems, whilst maintaining low system-build costs, by optimizing memory usage and minimizing power consumption. In order to achieve this when using modern, high-level languages such as C++, they need tools which best utilize their target architecture.
RealView Compilation Tools lead the industry in terms of minimizing code footprint and maximizing code performance, enabling significant memory and power savings. New benefits in version 2.0 include extensive ISO C++ support including namespaces, full template support and real-time type information (RTTI). The Compilation Tools also provide complete support for all of the ARM® processor families, including the recently-announced ARM1136JF-S™ core - the first implementation of the new ARMv6 architecture and the winner of the 2002 Microprocessor Report Analysts' Choice Award in the Embedded IP Processors category. No other tool chain provides this level of comprehensive support across the entire ARM processor range. RealView Compilation Tools version 2.0 also sees the first implementation of the emerging ARM C/C++ EABI standard.
The ARM C/C++ EABI is a cross-platform standard developed by ARM, in collaboration with major OS and tools vendors, which specifies how executables and shared objects work together for OS or other execution environments. This standard enables RealView Compilation Tools version 2.0 to be easily integrated with custom development environments and third-party tools that conform to the ARM C/C++ EABI standard. Library developers also benefit as they can create libraries that work with any ARM C/C++ EABI compliant compiler, so increasing the number of compatible standard libraries available for the ARM architecture for many application areas.
"The introduction of the ARM EABI C/C++ standard will have a very positive effect on the way in which software is developed for the ARM architecture," said Philip Kirkpatrick, product manager, ARM Development Systems. "This standard gives developers of ARM Powered® products more flexibility and choice when it comes to developing increasingly advanced products."
Symbian is adopting the ARMC/C++ EABI system for the Symbian OS.
"Symbian, its customers and licensees need a number of differing compilers; some delivering improved system performance and others delivering developer productivity benefits. By standardizing on the ARM C/C++ EABI, ARM has enabled compiler vendors to deliver this variety to match the needs of the Symbian OS community," said David Wood, EVP Partnering at Symbian. "Symbian is adopting the ARM C/C++ EABI for system performance and developer productivity improvements in Symbian OS, and RealView Compilation Tools 2.0 for building Symbian OS, beginning with the kernel."
About the ARM RealView Development Solution
RealView tools provide designers with the best solution for creating and analysing systems based on ARM technology. They are designed and used by the same engineers who create the ARM architecture. ARM tools are exposed to the highest level of pre- and post-silicon evaluation and development. As a result, the ARM RealView development solution provides the broadest possible range of support for future ARM architectures and derivatives. ARM RealView tools are fully integrated and provide a complete solution to any design or SoC integration challenge, giving the developer higher confidence in first silicon and a faster time-to-market.

Edinburgh Paintings & Prints – Dusk Light Over Siccar Point and Fast Castle Head From Above Pease Bay, Berwickshire, Scotland.
An original painting and prints of Siccar Point and Fast Castle Head From Above Pease Bay, Berwickshire, Scotland.
A dramatic mix of mediums are blended, layered and splattered over the canvas to produce a very atmospheric painting depicting the ever changing weather that constantly sweeps across the east coast of Scotland.
I love to combine and layer the different types of paint and application of medium, creating a unique style of atmospheric painting full of vibrant colour and drama.
Many of my Edinburgh paintings are very striking graphic style city outlines against bright, vibrant spray painted skies.
I use a variety of mediums in a very non traditional style including spray paint, oil paint, acrylic and inks.
The original paintings continue around the deep edges of the canvas giving a very contemporary style although it can be framed if you wish.

Because I'm on Prednisone and Codeine cough syrup, which means I'm full of energy and love for the world. And I also have a major case of the munchies, so don't grab for my Peppermint Patties unless you wish to draw back a nub. :)
The usual caveats: Answers come from my personal experience. Your mileage may vary. My way is not the only way. If you follow my links to Chuck Wendig's blog, prepare for NSFW vocabulary.
1. How do you know if a book is MG, YA, or Adult?
Here's a great post on this topic from Claire Legrand and WriteOnCon.
And here's my quickie version: Who will read and enjoy the book, and how old is the protagonist?
Middle Grade, or MG, is typically for ages 9-12 but might be read by kids as young as 7, considering kids usually read up. MG will have a character in the 10-13 range and have a plot that isn't too scary, doesn't have swearing, and doesn't focus on romance, although there might be some romantic thoughts. We're talking G to PG.
YA, on the other hand, is written for ages 13 and up but might be read by kids as young as 9. The protagonist is a teen, usually 16 or over, and it's often in first person and has an immediate and emotional point of view. There might be swearing, romance, and even sex, if you're getting into the higher teens. PG, PG-13.
On the fence between MG and YA? That's called Upper MG, and lots of kids want it.
NA, or New Adult, is a new sort of age range dealing on ages 18 and over and the concept of changing from a teen to an adult. It often includes a sexual awakening, intense feelings, and adult problems. R. Maybe even NC-17, if you get into Beautiful Bastard-type stuff.
Adult is… for adults. The protagonist can be any age, but the topics are mature.
The thing is, you write the book you write, and then an agent or editor can help you figure out the best way to sell the book and where it goes in the bookstore. I believe in writing the book you want to write first, then looking at where it would fit and tweaking it to fit there beautifully.
Note: There are always exceptions, and some of the best books speak to readers of many different age groups. Neil Gaiman writes books like that. If you're worried about stating the age range during querying, just take a guess. Your query and submitted pages will give the agent the best idea of how to sell it.
2. How do you deal with pacing?
Here's a great post from Janice Hardy on plot and pacing. Her entire blog is gold.
Personally, here's how I deal with pacing.
First of all, I read a ton of books, which means my brain understands the basic layout of a story. Introduction > instigating factor > disequilibrium > go after goal > climax > denouement. So when I'm thinking about my story seed and planning out my plot, I know the basic signposts. When I write a first draft, I write it straight through, letting it happen organically. When I edit that draft, I keep a page of longhand notes on what's missing, what needs to be connected, questions I might still have. When I do the third draft, I try to incorporate all the notes. And that's my fourth draft, which is the first one I feel I can look at critically to consider pacing.
I make an Excel spreadsheet on a chapter by chapter basis, noting how many pages the chapter has, what happens in it, and how exciting it is on a scale of 1 to 10. I don't want a bunch of 2s in a row, but I don't want a bunch of 9s either. I want to make sure that the reader will be excited and compelled to read on, but also that there are small periods of rest to help them catch their bearings. And when I'm reading, if I get bored, I make a note to fix it later. If the writer is bored, the reader will be, too.
To be quite honest, my pacing has gotten better with each book. Sometimes, it just takes lots of practice and absorbing other people's awesome stories. When you read the books that make you feel like you want your book to make others feel, you can replicate how that author achieves the tension that makes you keep reading.
Other tips:
* End each chapter with something that doesn't allow the reader to put down the book. A question, something scary, a footstep in the silent hall.
* Make sure your characters have secrets that will be revealed. Avoid info dumps and let their backstories and secrets come out naturally, like gumdrops along a path.
* Draw out the sexual tension. Draw out blackmail. People rarely say exactly what they mean, and your reader will dwell on every word for the payoff they want.
* When the payoff comes, give the reader proper time to enjoy it. Just a few beats. Not too long. Then on to the next question.
And your genre will also speak to pacing. Literary fiction will be slower than military scifi adventure. Teen contemporary will be slower than teen dystopian. The pacing should fit the subject matter.
3. How do you deal with writer's block?
For a long answer, read Chuck Wendig's post on 25 Ways to Defeat Writer's Block.
Personally, I haven't had writer's block since I started writing books. Once I became open to possibility, the problem became having too many ideas jockeying for attention. I think writer's block happened to me, when it did, because instead of hunting around for something fun to play with, I had this idea that there was a PERFECT IDEA that would yield THE PERFECT STORY that would appeal to EVERYONE ON EARTH and make A BAJILLION DOLLARS. And no idea was ever THE ONE. So I would find fault with every little weird idea instead of properly studying it and discovering what it might become.
I really saw this idea in action at my writers group, where we're given a story prompt and equal time to write before presenting to the group. From a broad prompt like "it's midnight" to a very narrow prompt like using the same first line, it's amazing how vastly different our resulting short stories were. What makes a story or book special isn't the beginning idea; it's your unique take on it, the story that sprung from you instead of any other person in the world. So when you see something that sparks you--a pic on tumblr or a snatch of conversation in a coffeehouse-- give it time, energy, and open-minded space to bloom. It doesn't need to be perfect; it needs to be interesting.
My YA, Servants of the Storm, (out next August) was entirely born of a photo set of Six Flags NOLA after the hurricane. I tag things that whisper about story ideas on tumblr with YOINK so I can find them later. There are ideas everywhere--you just have to settle on one and let it obsess you.
And then you have to pick one thread and write a story without thinking about all the stories you aren't writing or worrying if you're telling the wrong story, because there is no wrong story. Set a timer for 15 minutes and sit in front of your document. You're either writing, or you're thinking about your story. Don't do anything but write or think in that time. With enough time on task, you'll have a book. Sometimes, it doesn't feel magical, and the words don't come, and that's okay. Because sometimes, it will be pure magic. You just have to push through the times that writing feels like work.
4. How do you find beta readers?
When I was first starting out, I used the Blueboard (for picture books, MG, YA) and Absolute Write forums to find critique partners. Now, I have a stable of trusted friends who don't mind reading. You can also ask around on Twitter, Facebook, or on the Critique Partner Dating Service. What's important is that you're specific in what you're asking for and what you expect from them. And what you're willing to give back.
"Agented author seeking critique partner for a YA dystopian, full ms swap" is vastly different from "Need quick beta reader for MG, first book". A critique partner should be at the same writing level as you and willing to provide knowledgable criticism of plot, pacing, characters, timeline issues, grammar, and you must be willing to do the same for them. A beta reader, for me, is someone willing to read for free and out of the goodness of their heart, and I ask for any feedback they're willing to give. Which means sometimes I get an "It's good!" and sometimes I get a Word doc smothered in red, comments, and changes. And you never, ever complain to your beta readers. You thank them for whatever they give and use only what will level up your writing and your story.
So: find someone at your same level or a little bit above where you are, ask for specifics regarding what information you need from them, and be sure to be grateful and to return the favor.
5. How do you find the right opening line?
This one's tough! Sometimes, I know the opening line from the very start and it never changes. Sometimes I realize what it needs to be halfway through the first draft, or while editing another draft, or after my agent and I have talked over revisions. Sometimes it comes to me in the middle of writing, and sometimes I pop awake in the middle of the night. I know it's the right one when the urge to change it leaves. I know it when I see it.
Which means that when I don't see it, I know. But I don't let that stop me. I just start the story where it needs to be started and keep writing. You can always go back and change the first line, and it might come to you more naturally after you've gotten deeper in the story. What you utterly, absolutely cannot do is stare at a blank page and wait for the perfect first line to be whispered into your ear by the spirit owl of Anne Lamott as if the book can't happen until you unlock it with just the right words. The story is more important than the first line. It'll come when it's good and ready.
Hope that helps! Any other questions? Need further clarification or links? Ask in the comments.

(BPT) – Filing taxes online has become more popular than ever. In fact, the rate of individual tax returns filed online hit an all-time high of 80 percent last year, according to the IRS. But filing isn't the only step in the process that can now be accomplished with the help of online tools. Use digital technology to your advantage to make the complete process – from organizing receipts to claiming your refund – quick and simple.
"No longer do consumers have to sort through stacks of paperwork or wait in long lines at the post office during the dreaded tax season to successfully complete the filing process," says Rebecca Smith, vice president of marketing for Master Lock. "There are now a number of digital tools that not only make the tax process faster and easier, but also offer increased security as they eliminate the risks associated with hard-copy files of important or confidential documents, such as checks or W-2 forms."
Follow these tips for a secure and successful digital tax filing process:
1. Request electronic copies of your tax forms. Many employers offer workers the option to receive their W-2 forms electronically, instead of by mail. Eliminating the risk of postal delays or missed deliveries ensures that your W-2 will be delivered securely as soon as it is available. Plus, faster W-2s can mean faster tax returns.
2. Securely store documents online. Avoid the mess of a mound of paperwork by storing – and organizing – all your tax-related documents online. A secure service such as the Master Lock Vault (www.masterlockvault.com) ensures you'll have easy access to all your files wherever you are and that none of your paper documents will ever be lost, misplaced, stolen or damaged. Not only can you upload PDF forms, you also can upload photos from your phone of important receipts and expenses for your records. All data is instantly synchronized between the website and the app. As a bonus, you can securely store log-in information for your bank accounts and tax filing site in the Vault so you'll never have to worry about forgetting your username or password.
3. Think taxes year-round. Don't wait until you're ready to file your taxes to start collecting and organizing the supporting documents you'll need to complete your return. Avoid the scramble by capturing and uploading a digital image of your receipt each time you pay the babysitter or have a tax-deductible transaction, fill a prescription at the pharmacy or make a charitable contribution such as dropping off a clothing donation to your local thrift store.
4. Opt for direct deposit. If you've done everything else online, why request a hard-copy check when it comes time to claim your refund? When combined with electronic filing, direct deposit is the fastest way to get your refund. If you're on the other side of the spectrum and find that you owe taxes, opt to pay online and you can avoid the long tax-season lines at the post office.
5. Call for help. Sometimes, outside advice is necessary, and you can now get the help you need without leaving home. Based on the complexity of your question, there are a variety of resources to turn to. For example, the IRS offers a toll-free hotline for tax questions during weekdays. Several tax-prep software providers also offer guidance via online forums or on their social media feeds.

I have done the obligatory Hajj, praise be to Allaah, and I have done 'umrah. Is it better for me to travel for 'umrah, or to give this money in charity to the mujaahideen who are fighting for the sake of Allaah?.
Both travelling for 'umrah and spending for the sake of Allaah are good deeds, but the benefit of 'umrah is limited to the one who does it, whereas the benefit of spending on jihad is more far-reaching, so spending on that is more appropriate and takes precedence.
And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions. End quote.

Kevin Durant scored 40 points while Russell Westbrook added eight of his 16 points in overtime to help the Oklahoma City Thunder beat Dallas 111-105 on Thursday night for their 11th straight win at home.
Serge Ibaka added 19 points and matched his season high with 17 rebounds as Oklahoma City charged back from 10 points down in the final 7:17 of regulation and found a way to win after losing back-to-back games for the first time this season.
Darren Collison scored a season-best 32 points for Dallas. Dirk Nowitzki scored nine points in his second game back after offseason knee surgery, showing some rust down the stretch.
Westbrook turned the game around with six straight points after the Mavs had gone up 104-101 on Chris Kaman's bucket inside midway through overtime. Westbrook had a layup, hit a jumper over Nowitzki and then made a leaping steal of an O.J. Mayo pass that led to a fast-break layup. The sequence left Mavericks owner Mark Cuban shaking his head in his seat near the team's bench.
Mayo was fouled on Dallas' next possession while shooting a 3-pointer, but he missed the first two foul shots with 33 seconds left as the sold-out Chesapeake Energy Arena crowd roared louder with each miss.
Westbrook hit two free throws after that to put it away — this time for good.
Collison came up with a desperation 3-pointer at the buzzer to send it to overtime after Dallas had given up the lead for the first time since the opening 4 minutes.
Shawn Marion inbounded from the sideline with 2.2 seconds left, collected a deflected pass and headed toward the lane before kicking the ball out to Collison, who caught the ball in mid-air and heaved it toward the basket for the tying 3 from the right wing.
Replays showed he released the shot with one-tenth of a second left on the clock.
Still working his way back into shape, Nowitzki proved to be a liability during Oklahoma City's 17-6 fourth-quarter comeback. He sagged off of Durant far enough that the three-time NBA scoring champion could drill a 3-pointer from the left wing, then was trailing a play when O.J. Mayo backed into him and lost the ball to set up Durant's fast-break dunk and three-point play.
Durant's right-handed hook shot from the right block gave Oklahoma City its first lead since the opening 4 minutes at 96-95 with 1:57 to play.
Oklahoma City came up empty on three chances to extend the lead — after back-to-back offensive rebounds by Ibaka — but Durant hit a pair of free throws with 3.7 seconds left after Westbrook stole the ball from Mayo and dove to cover it while calling timeout.
In overtime, Carlisle pulled Nowitzki in favor of Marion for defense at one point.
Kaman ended up with 17 poitns and Marion chipped in 14 points and nine rebounds for the Mavericks, who were swept on a treacherous three-game road trip that featured stops at West contenders Memphis, San Antonio and Oklahoma City despite getting Nowitzki back. Dallas has lost seven of eight.
Dallas had been 11-1 this season when leading at the beginning of the fourth quarter and 11-2 after holding a 10-point lead or larger. Mayo, who had been averaging 20.6 points, scored only four and has 29 total over the last four games.
Oklahoma City had won 12 in a row before losing back-to-back games at Minnesota and Miami.
The franchises have grown quite familiar over the past two seasons, with each team taking a turn knocking the other out of the playoffs — in addition to their proximity along Interstate 35 and a handful of preseason matchups to go with the usual regular-season meetings. Dallas eliminated Oklahoma City in the Western Conference finals before winning the NBA title in 2011 and the Thunder swept the Mavs in the first round last season.
Other than Nowitzki and coach Rick Carlisle, there aren't many remnants of those Dallas teams left. An offseason overhaul left Marion, Vince Carter, Brandan Wright and Rodrigue Beaubois as the only Mavericks remaining from those clashes.
Collison scored 14 points with a blend of 3-pointers, layups, a jumper and a pair of free throws as Dallas got out to a 29-19 first-quarter lead. Dominique Jones drove for right-handed power slam against 7-foot-3 center Hasheem Thabeet and Jae Crowder converted a four-point play as the Mavs fought of an Oklahoma City comeback to lead 43-32.
The Thunder wiped nearly all of the deficit away, limiting Dallas to just one bucket over the final 6 minutes of the first half to draw within 45-43 after Ibaka missed a pair of free throws, then came soaring in to dunk the rebound off of Durant's second-chance jumper.
The Mavericks responded right away after their 11-point advantage had been erased, getting a pair of layups from Collison during a string of 10 straight points early in the third quarter. Kaman's jumper from the right side made it 55-45 with 9:05 left in the period.
Notes: Beaubois, a reserve guard for the Mavericks, did not play because of an illness. Carlisle said he hoped to have Beaubois back for Friday's home game against Denver. ... Reggie Jackson took Eric Maynor's minutes as Westbrook's backup at point guard for the second straight game. ... Durant remained first among Western Conference frontcourt players in NBA All-Star balloting returns announced Thursday. Westbrook stayed in fifth among guards. Nowitzki, who has made 11 straight All-Star games, was 13th in the frontcourt. ... Ibaka had a double-double by halftime for the first time in his career.
