Hosting Thanksgiving when you have little kids? No problem
You've got your menu decided, your grocery list written out and you even think you'll have enough chairs for everyone to squeeze in at the table. You're officially ready to host Thanksgiving this year. There's just one — or two or three — small problems... how to pull off making the meal of the year when you've got little kids to take care of at the same time. Don't panic, and don't reach for the pizza delivery menu just yet either. Hosting Thanksgiving while parenting is completely doable. It just takes a little planning and a few extra supplies. Here's everything you need to survive hosting Thanksgiving when you've got little kids.
More: 30 kids Thanksgiving crafts that will brighten up your holiday table
1. Snacks
Obvious, right. I know you're pointing to the adorable turkey-shaped crudités and delicious deviled eggs on your menu right now as if to say, "Got it covered." But hear me out. Unless you're blessed with adventurous eaters, most little kids won't be willing to try your fun, festive appetizers when their stomachs start rumbling. And the last thing you want to do when your hands are covered in turkey giblets is stop to make a PB&J. Since a fed child is a better-behaved one and you don't want any meltdowns in front of your in-laws, consider making sandwiches the night before so you can pass them out when hunger strikes. And include some familiar, kid-friendly snacks in the mix, like fish-shaped crackers or fruit.
2. Plasticware and paper plates
Your grandmother's china is beautiful, which is why the children need to stay far, far away from it. Grab some plastic cutlery, disposable napkins and paper plates while you're out getting the Thanksgiving groceries so you don't have to worry every time an elbow goes flying. If the kids are getting their own special table, you can give them the all-important job of setting it themselves, keeping them distracted for another five minutes.
3. Spare pots and pans
At some point, the kids are probably going to want to "help," which is code for get underfoot while you're moving hot things and opening the oven. Keep them busy and away from the stove by letting them stir a clean dishtowel in a spare pot with a wooden spoon. If they're feeling the need to burn off some energy, let them flip over the pot and practice their drumming. Added bonus? The noise will drown out the political argument your husband and brothers are having in the next room.
4. A backup set of eyes
Yes, moms have eyes in the back of their head, but no one can be expected to pull of an amazing meal and watch the kids every single second. Enlist the help of that older cousin who loves to babysit or the fun uncle to make sure no one wanders off so you can focus on reading the directions for the gravy closely. Look: cornstarch, not corn syrup! That was a close one.

5. Crayons and drawing paper for the dining room table
Of course you'll have games and toys for the kids to play with while the meal is cooking, but consider that they might need something to keep them entertained during Thanksgiving dinner too. Crayons and paper or a quiet activity book for them to play with will help keep them from getting antsy after they're done eating but the adults are all going back for second helpings.
6. Flame-free centerpieces
Don't let Pinterest hypnotize you into creating elaborate table centerpieces. Flickering candles can add a warm glow to your meal, but they're also dangerous to little hands and bodies. The same goes for anything breakable or small enough to swallow. Stick to plastic or fabric, or go for a nature-lover theme with edible centerpieces made of fruits and nuts. This way, if your kids reach for the middle of the table, you don't have to pause mid-chew to yell at them.
7. Spare clothes
Those special Thanksgiving Day outfits you bought are adorable. Make sure you get some family photos with the grands before you sit down to eat, or consider popping the kids into a backup set of play clothes before the meal so you don't wind up crying over spilled juice on crushed velvet.
8. Paper towels, baby wipes and stain remover
Speaking of meal mishaps, when little kids are around cranberry sauce, there's bound to be at least one accident. Having cleanup supplies on hand makes it more likely that you'll be able to use this tablecloth again next year.
9. Easy Mac
Because no matter how delicious the Thanksgiving meal is, there's always one child who refuses to eat it.

10. Your phone
The day will be a blur of measuring, mixing and telling your younger daughter to stop chasing her brother around the dining room table. But it is, after all, a special occasion. Keep your phone on hand or pass it along to a family member who's handy with a camera to capture those fleeting moments that make the holidays special.
11. Wine
You successfully pulled off a feast for the family and managed to keep the kids alive at the same time. Cheers to that!

For the past several weeks, Sundays have been the only days when I can truly rest. The rest of the days of these weeks have been jammed with doctor's appointments, other responsibilities, and increasingly crushing fatigue. So, I've been observing the Sabbath in quiet, moved by the Spirit to pray, read, reflect, and praise more privately. I have felt a little guilty about this, wondering if I wasn't just being lazy. It wasn't as if I was having a spiritual crisis, so much as a need to recharge.
So, on two occasions, I decided, "it's been awhile since I went to Mass. I'm going to go today."
One of those days took me to a doctor's appointment in a town next to mine. The local church there was having a noon Mass, so I thought, "Great. I'll go to my doctor's appointment and then drive on over to the church."
Well, drive I did. But there was no parking to be found. None in the jammed church lot, none on the streets, and none in adjacent lots. Nothing. Zippo. Nada.
Apparently, God wanted me to continue on my private observances, in effect, saying, "No. Not yet."
Or did He?
Last weekend, I decided to try a Saturday evening service at another nearby church. That way, I reasoned, I could spend Sunday quietly.
So, I got all ready and drove forward. Until I got a couple of blocks from the church where I was blocked by imposing sawhorses and a large sign that said: "Street closed." A fair had taken over the area all around, even directly in front of the church. Not only was there no parking, but there was no passage.
One of these days, I am going to get back to church. For now, I think I get the message. For me, and I'm sure many others, too, especially after a highly stressful time, drinnking up quiet time with God is vital. For how long is not necessarily for us to decide. Sometimes, God says, "No. Not yet. Abide with me. And I will guide you."
Blessings for the day!

Grants were awarded to farmers with plans to improve organic farming media sources and help local community
(Kutztown, PA, July 16, 2012) - Rodale Institute approved two grant applications at their meeting last month, donating money raised through the Your 2 Cents campaign to two farms. Truckee Community Farm was awarded funding to support start-up costs and additions. Woodleaf Farm was selected to receive a grant to aid in data collection and creation of a website-based media presence project for organic farming practices.
Truckee Community Farm in Truckee, California will be using their award to continue improving their greenhouse project by adding features such as an aquaponics system, compost area and cold frame raised beds for year-round growing. Currently, brothers Bill and Kevin Kelly are operating an 880 square foot geodesic grow dome on their 20-acre property and all materials are self-funded. "We want to create a community space and have the farm be a demonstration area for others," said Susie Sutphin, Program and Farm Manager.
Helen Atthowe, Project Coordinator for Woodleaf Farm in Oroville, California, says she plans to "look at farms that have been farming organically for 20+ years, study their records to write case studies, and then bring all the farmers together to write stories for eOrganic. That's what Rodale Institute will be a part of – managing those interrelationships organically." eOrganic, the organic agriculture resource area within eXtension, will provide an easy access and one-stop site for biological organic vegetable production systems information. Practice-based, research-supported information from Carl Rosato's Woodleaf Farm, a 30 year successful organic vegetable farm, will give other organic farmers credible NOP compliant sources on systems approaches for soil and pest management.
The Your 2 Cents program unites consumers and companies in support of the next generation of American farmers while raising funds to support scholarships for students of sustainable agriculture, military veterans establishing careers in organic farming, new organic farmers, and grants for on-farm research.
Companies participate by donating two pennies per case good sold to the Your 2 Cents fund, which is governed by an advisory board consisting of representatives from Rodale Institute and the corporate partners. The advisory board reviews applications quarterly and allots funds for the education, training and establishment of new organic farmers who will feed America sustainably in coming generations. Rodale Institute's Your 2 Cents partners include: Uncle Matt's Organic, Nature's Path, New Chapter, Natural By Nature, Maple Hill Creamery, Brad's Raw Foods, EcoTulips, shopOrganic.com, FarmOrganix, DeLoach, Arnicare, FarmOrganix, Peace Tree Farm, Kimberton Whole Foods, Moyer Plumbing Heating and Cooling, and Viking Pure.
Rodale Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to pioneering organic farming through research and outreach. For more than sixty-years, the Institute has been committed to researching the best practices for organic farming and sharing findings with farmers and scientists around the world, advocating for policies that support farmers, and educating consumers about how going organic is the healthiest option for people and the planet.

Today is International Mother Language Day and our blog is turning multilingual today. We are hosting a series of blog posts by different authors, illustrators, parents, educators and children - sharing their thoughts on languages and more. International Mother Language Day is an observance held annually on 21 February worldwide to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism. 2015 is the 15th anniversary of International Mother Language Day.
I live in Bangalore. A city swarmed with people from different states, with different tongues, like myself. Everytime I go out for a meal here, whether it's a small breakfast joint selling Madurai Idlys or a posh place specializing in Vietnamese cuisine I see families, parent with young children, talking to children, in English.The talking is sometimes scolding for naughtiness or misbehavior, sometimes pleading to eat more food, sometimes distraction to fool the child into more food, but everything, in English. I cringe. Whatever happened to speaking to young children in mother tongues? A tongue, a language their very own. A language that will bind them with strangers later in life, or help share secrets in loud because nobody else will understand it, a language of conspiracy, but most importantly, a language of home. So why no Mother Tongue I ask?
And I have reasons to ask,and advices to give from my life. You see, I have had a very love-hate-don't know-don't care-like-love kind of relationship with my mother tongue.It is not a blockbuster, but still a story I feel like sharing today, on Mother Tongue day.
I am a Maharashtrian by lineage, so Marathi is my mother tongue. But like many children of that decade, I was born in a land many kilometers away from my home state because young couples had started moving across states and countries for opportunities. I was born in the dusty, bustling business town of Kanpur, in Uttar Pradesh. The mother tongue of which was Hindi, so I grew up with a lot of Hindi around me. All friends, all foes,my teachers, my auto-uncle, the helps at home, our neighborhood aunty who made excellent gajar halwa, everybody spoke Hindi and so it became my first language too. The only Marathi I heard was when my parents spoke to each other or to their parents over long distance calls which had to be connected with the help of an operator.There were less than 100 Maharashtrian families spread across the big city that Kanpur is, and except the 10 days of GaneshUtsav,we didn't see each other much. Ofcourse our parents had imposed an 'Only Marathi' rule at home, but with the virtue of my sister been away in a hostel studying medicine, I didn't have anyone to practice my Marathi on. In school, tuition classes and neighborhood, I was the only Marathi speaking person, amongst all the Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi speakers and I hated my minority status. I stopped caring for the language my parents spoke, concentrating on the language everybody around spoke.Years moved on, and I moved away from my mother tongue.
Then it was time for me to fly off to newer horizons to study and I landed in Pune. The seat of Marathi language. I felt odd, here I was, a Maharastrian, finally in Maharashtra who could not speak respectable Marathi. What am I do to? Slowly, but steadily and with a passion, Pune grew on me, and so did Marathi. I started polishing my Marathi by haggling with shopkeepers in Marathi (which awed my non-Maharashtrian friends), I started attending Marathi plays, watching Marathi movies, attending Marathi music concerts.I finally started connecting with my mother tongue, 21 years too late, but connecting nevertheless. Conversations with parents, strictly in Hindi up-till, had a big smattering of Marathi in them now.I was amazed by how beautiful it sounded, how I could have something in common with absolute strangers, something that was spoken by great warriors and ace writers and visionary thinkers and it belonged to them as much as it belonged to me.I had reached a point where I thought I could probably now attempt to read Marathi, all those wonderful works were waiting for me, and maybe I was ready?
But before I could do this, I moved to Bangalore and the Marathi ties sort of snapped. Another language started filling my ears. Like a jilted ex-lover, I started looking for Marathi everywhere. Surprisingly, I got it. Whether on a road trip to Bandipur, or a shopping trip to a mall, or while eating dosa roadside, I would always let a Marathi conversation find me. I started catching Marathi words in Kannada (and have being fascinated since then that there are so many common words!) I started reading the Marathi books in our office. I started to make that connection again. Because nothing makes me feel of home, like my mother tongue.
My Marathi.
So Dear parents of Bangalore, scold, plead, distract your child, but do it in her mother tongue please. Many years later, she would speak a sentence of this language and fly right back home.
(As I write this, I look longingly at that Marathi book which sits on my bedside table waiting to be read. Maybe today is a good day J)

Sabotage blamed for water taxi woes
A new water taxi service between San Fernando and Port-of-Spain just inaugurated by the Government of Trinidad and Tobago has hit an unwelcome start-up problem: suspected sabotage.
The service is being operated by the National Infrastructure Development Company (NIDCO) with the help of Hornblower Marine Services.
Four second hand vessels have been acquired for the service, the 449 passenger Su (which has yet to arrive) and the 150 passenger each HC Milancia, HC Katia and the HC Olivia. The 150 passenger vessels are catamarans built by Britain's VT Shipbuilding in 2004.
Today NIDCO said that the H.C. Milancia experienced a technical difficulty during scheduled operations on Monday, January 5 and Tuesday, January 6 2009, resulting in a temporary interruption in the water taxi service.
The "technical difficulty" proved to be rags found lodged within the vesselÕs fuel system. One rag was discovered on Monday evening after maintenance crews conducted checks to determine the exact cause of the incident.
H.C. Milancia resumed operation on the morning of Tuesday 6 January 2009 but had to be withdrawn following a reoccurrence of the same technical difficulty.
Wednesday morning at approximately 9:30 am following its arrival at the shipyard at 7:00 am a second rag was discovered, in another of the vesselÕs fuel tanks
While the discovery of the first rag led NIDCO to believe that it could have been left in the tank out of carelessness during servicing, the discovery of a second rag was, said, NIDCO "too much of a coincidence."
NIDCO says it regards the discovery of these rags in the MilanciaÕs fuel tanks as a deliberate act of sabotage by persons unknown to thwart the efficient operation of the water taxi service and has requested a full investigation by the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service .
NIDCO says that the vessels currently being used for the operation of the water taxi service, the Olivia and the Milancia, have been inspected and certified by all the competent authorities and have met all operational and safety requirements.
NIDCO has taken immediate steps to strengthen its security arrangements for the water taxi service.

Problem 162 — What you see is not always what you get, as this month's problem by Kevin Kuester demonstrates.
A volley of unprintable language issued forth from the electrical contractor's trailer on the site of Phineas Gotrocks' new summer home on Lake Hyhrent. His villa was to be the last word in luxury, and Gotrocks and the electrical contractor, Nicholas Fritz, were each trying to have that last word.
"You want stereo speakers in the bathroom and in all 10 bedrooms; three-way lighting in all seven bathrooms, floodlighting for the tennis courts and heated swimming pool, plus little lampposts in the gardens and driveway? It can't be done," shouted Fritz.
"Nonsense, my good man," drawled Gotrocks as he pointed to the proposed electrical diagram. "I know something of electrical work, and all you have to do is run three single-strand wires through these pipes here instead of two."
"They'll never fit!"
"Certainly they'll fit! Why the pipes have 0.500-in. inside diameters — with a tolerance of 60.010 in."
The wires each have circular cross sections and outside diameters of 0.250 in. 60.005 in. If there must be a 0.020-in. radial difference between the pipe ID and a circumscribing circle around the three wires (to allow easy assembly), will the pipes be able to accommodate three wires?

Solution to last month's problem 161 — You know a load of waste material when you see one, if you answered 5.94 years. Here's how Wurme piled it higher and deeper:
First convert the yearly production rates and FC capacity from weight to volume measures:
For FC production rate:
For BA production rate:
For capacity of FC in top layer:
From Wurme's data we know that there is 1,363,000 yd3 of capacity for the base layer (1,750,000 yd3 total capacity 2387,000 yd3 top layer capacity.)
Let: A = Production rate of BA, given as 37,037 yd3/year B = Production rate of FC, given as 243,810 yd3/year N = Number of years capacity, years x = Portion of FC that goes to base layer, no units
Since the base layer is comprised of both FC and BA, we can set up the following equation for capacity:
The remainder of the FC goes to the top layer. We know that the capacity for FC in the top layer is 301,479 yd3, so we can set up the following equation:
Substitute the value of N in Equation (2) for N in Equation 1. Cross multiply to get rid of the denominators:
1,363,000B - 1,363,000Bx = 301,479A + 301,479Bx
3.32 x 1011 - 1.12 x 1010 = 4.06 x 1011x
Plug in the values for A and B and solve for x:
Plug the values for x , A, and B into (1) and solve for N.
[37,037 yd3/year + (0.79)(243,810 yd3/year)]N = 1,363,000 yd3
N = 5.94 years
Bluff will have a tough act to follow when he takes over Wurme's job as vice president of quality control, Mr. Wurme being unavailable for some years to come.

NEW YORK (WFAN/AP) — "The Good Life" indeed.
Tony Bennett turned 85 earlier this month, but his birthday celebration continues — and will be part of this year's U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows.
Bennett, a big tennis fan, will be feted at the Open's president's box before the opening ceremonies on Aug. 29 with Moet & Chandon, which is sponsoring the tennis grand slam for the first time this year. He'll autograph a special bottle, which will be auctioned for charity during a special reception.
"It's for him, and also the charitable component to our involvement in the U.S. Open, which is very, very important," said Daniel Lalonde, president and CEO of Moet & Chandon.
The brand is also having other celebrities who visit its Open suite autograph bottles. Those bottles will also be auctioned for the United States Tennis Association's charity USTA Serves, which is dedicated to helping at-risk and disabled children through tennis.
Are you pumped for the US Open? Let us know in the comments below!

I have gotten some emails asking me to update this page, and it is about time. We have long since moved since I created this page, so here is what our Virginia kitchen looks like. Just in time to move again in a few months.
I always wonder what people's kitchen look like. What kind of space are they in when they create the food that they feed their family? The other day, my kitchen was particulary clean so I took some pictures. I really love my kitchen, but if I were going to live in this house forever, I would change some things. What I do love about my kitchen is that it has gorgeous light. I love that is really open and that I can be cooking and be surrounded by my children. I can get a lot of things done because they are always playing or doing a craft or something nearby.
This island would be a perfect place to bake, but there is no plug. It kills me that I am stuck in a corner to use my mixer. I would love to be able to look out while I am mixing something.
The refrigerator and the dishwasher both look really nice, but are not very practical. We have a fridge outside in the garage that holds most of our drinks and platters and that kind of stuff when we are having people over. The dishwasher is super small and takes a few loads to get through one dinner for 5 people. I love that the kids are right next to me watching me cook or helping me cook. Since my kitchen is so open it is really easy for them to a part of what I am doing.
So there it is… the place where the magic happens. What does your kitchen look like?

As Layoffs Rise, Jobless Throng Career Fairs
As Americans fall victim to layoffs and downsizing, they're flocking to career fairs, causing long lines and exhausting hiring managers whose booths are overflowing with candidates.
When Steven Seiler, 44 years old, first saw a line spanning two New York City blocks for a CareerBuilder.com job fair in October, he thought, "If I wasn't on the bus for an hour and 45 minutes, I would [leave]." An accountant from Staten Island, N.Y., Mr. Seiler has been out of work since late September when the firm he worked for collapsed. It took 45 minutes for Mr. Seiler to even get in the door of the career fair. Once inside, he was disappointed to learn that most of the companies were offering commission-based sales jobs or part-time work; he left after about 30 minutes.
Career fairs -- organized meet-ups that aim to give employers access to many candidates at once and give job-seekers exposure to a variety of open positions -- have long been popular with recent college graduates and entry-level job seekers. Recent rounds of layoffs are spurring new crowds to attend. National Career Fairs, a Las Vegas-based company that organizes fairs for job site Monster.comthroughout the country, says it has already had a 40.7% increase in attendees this year over 2007, and that's sure to continue as the year goes on.
Join the Discussion
Do you know anyone who has been laid off? How are they coping? Join the discussion in Journal Community.
Job site CareerBuilder.com has seen a 33% increase in job-fair attendance this year. Targeted Job Fairs, a producer of technology, engineering and security-clearance career fairs, has seen attendance increase about 16%. And a recent job fair held at the University of Phoenix football stadium by Jobing.com attracted more than 10,000 attendees -- a record, says Jobing.com spokesman Joe Cockrell. "It looked like there was a football game going on," he says.
More senior executives are standing in line, even though the caliber of jobs and companies represented at the fairs often isn't appealing to this group. Daniel Haim, vice president of customer acquisition for Innovation Ads, an online-advertising company based in New York, says he was surprised when approached by three executives who had been laid off the day before a job fair earlier this month. Mr. Haim says he was screening candidates for just three to five sales positions.
Unfortunately for job-hunters, the growing field of applicants is competing for a shrinking pool of opportunities at job fairs, as fewer potential employers sign up. Targeted Job Fairs has seen a decrease in the number of booths it is filling, especially in ailing areas like New York. "There are hiring freezes, companies laying off people and cutbacks on spending, so they might not want to lay out money for booths," says Bob Westerkamp, general manager of Targeted Job Fairs, whose booths cost $2,495.
Jobing.com's Phoenix fair, which typically draws 200 to 250 employers, drew only 174 this year, says Mr. Cockrell, despite a job-seeker attendance uptick of 28% over last year.
Still, even senior-level career-fair attendees say they're hoping to just make a connection in a marketplace crowded every day with more people just like them. "For someone in my profession and career path, this isn't great," says Brad Birnbaum, a 48-year-old director of finance who was recently downsized from a New York advertising agency. "But it's good to meet people and good for networking," he says of a job fair in New York that he attended earlier this month.
Crowded venues and lines can frustrate attendees looking to get face time with recruiters. Erin Kelly, 30, who is searching for a marketing position, says that recruiters at a Colorado job fair she attended in September seemed burnt out and were referring candidates to their company Web sites rather than accepting applications. Some lines to speak to recruiters were so long, up to 30 people deep, that she passed them by.
"I was physically exhausted, I don't think I've ever spoken to that many people in my entire life," says Bill Lutz, a senior human-resources analyst who represented the city of Scottsdale, Ariz., at Jobing.com's fair. Mr. Lutz estimates he spoke to 2,000 people at the fair, double the amount he met with at the same fair in 2007. Mr. Lutz had only 17 open positions.
In order to deal with the crowds, job-fair organizers are advising vendors on how to be more time-efficient, by encouraging candidates to pre-register and bringing on more staff. National Career Fairs has extended the hours of career fairs in some of its major markets, to five hours from four, and advises recruiters not to spend more than a few minutes on each candidate to avoid a traffic jam. Rosemary Haefner, vice president of human resources for CareerBuilder, says this year many employers are bringing in up to 10 recruiters to speak with job seekers; in previous year three to five was the norm.
If you plan to brave the crowds at a career fair in the near future, experts say there are some ways to maximize your time and make yourself stand out. Pre-register online if the fair gives you the option so that you won't have to waste time in line filling out forms.
Not every company represented at the fair is worth visiting. Come with a game plan of companies in your field you want to meet with and make an A-list, a B-list and a C-list, meeting with the companies that you're most interested in first, says Paul Mathews, president and CEO of Hire Aspirations, a career-coaching and outplacement firm based in Hartford, Conn.
Research the companies you are interested in ahead of time, and familiarize yourself with their mission statement, positions they have available and recent press releases, says Mr. Mathews.
Nicholas Schulz, a 23-year-old from Woodbridge, N.J., looking at jobs in the marketing field, has developed his own trick for making the most of his time. He arrives early to reach recruiters before they get burnt out. "If you get there later on, you can see it on their faces that you're the thousandth person they've spoken to," he says.

The bridge is just another way to connect to your database. Normally program uses a direct MySQL connection to remote database installed on the website or some other web server. In some cases this type of connection does not work - your hosting provider may not allow direct connections or your LAN settings/firewall prevent the connection from being established. The bridge allows you to work with the remote database without direct MySQL connection established.
While working through bridge you must store your temporary data somewhere in the local database. The bridge is used only for two major operations - get data from the remote database and post data to that database. You must understand the difference between bridge connection and MySQL connection. The bridge is not a connection itself, actually, this is just a way to transfer files between remote and local machine and nothing else.
To configure PHP MySQL Bridge Connection, follow few steps:
2. Important. Edit bridge.php file
Also here you can find how you can make Bridge connection more secure.
You may keep all other settings as they are unless you have any errors.
3. Copy bridge to your online store root (catalog) directory. The bridge should be accessible as http://www.myonlinestore.com/bridge.php whereas your store link is http://www.myonlinestore.com.
Tip: Also it is recommended to run Bridge.php Self Test. It checks your website to make sure there are no problems in your hosting configuration. Your hosting support can solve all problems found there.
4. Open Store Manager -> Tools -> Preferences and enable PHP MySQL bridge connection check-box.
5. Specify the following PHP MySQL Bridge and Local Database Connection Settings:
Tip: Use Test Connection button to verify if all settings are correct.
Note that it is not your live store database, it is your local database used to work with your data locally. In order to see your live store data you need to Get Data from The Web either using Tools -> PHP MySQL Bridge ->
Get Data from The Web (CTRL + G)
or using Database Actions button.
Wait while data is transferred. Depending on database size and connection speed it may take from few seconds to several hours (large database + slow connection). Follow few steps of Backup/Restore wizard.
Now you may work with your store - add/modify products, categories, import products etc.
It is important to post all changes you have made to your on-line store. Select Main Menu -> Tools ->PHP MySQL Bridge -> Post Changes to Web (CTRL + P) or use the corresponding Action.
In case you're using PHP-MySQL Bridge to work with your store database, here you'll find the data that hasn't been posted to your store yet.
You can check logs of the changes you've made since last time you've posted changes to the live store. At this page, you can make the changes to the future data modifications.
So when you post data, it will be posted with the changes you've made.
Please note that any modifications done using Pending Data section won't be displayed at your current (local) DB till the time you get data from the web again.
You can Clear all Changes (will clear all commands) made locally before posting if you do not want them to be applied to your remote database. Pay attention that you won't be able to undo this action.
Note: you have to retrieve data from the web again in order to synchronize local and remote databases after this operation.
If you wish to create a new local database you can type its name manually and use test connection button.
You'll see the notification that local database with specified name does not exist and Store Manager may ask you to create one.
Note: Local database and your store database are two different databases and their names may be different or may be the same, it doesn't matter.
Tip: Use Bridge.php Self Test Tool to check your website and to make sure there are no problems in your hosting configuration. Your hosting support can solve all problems found there.
7. Click OK to save changes and close preferences. Now you have to retrieve data from your web store into your local database.
8. In main application window - Main Menu->Tools->Database Bridge->Get Data from Web.
9. Select Main Menu->Tools->Database Bridge->Post Changes to Web. Check whether all changes you made were reflected in web store properly.
Note: It is strongly recommended to create the database backup before any mass operations.

Union Theological College offers a Graduate Diploma in Youth Ministry to existing undergraduate students (and to recent graduates who meet the requirements). The College hopes to make this Diploma available on a wider basis in the near future (particularly to existing Youth Pastors on an "in-service" basis).
Students will normally first complete the requirements for the Graduate Certificate in Youth Ministry and then in a subsequent year "upgrade" to the Diploma by completing the additional requirements as set out below.
The pathway seeks to build a bridge between the academic study of the degree syllabus and the practical and applied needs of those preparing for ministry, especially for ministry among young people.
The aim of the pathway is twofold: to equip students to apply their theological training to "ministry" contexts in general and then to focus on "youth" contexts in particular.
The Diploma will be awarded by the Presbyterian Theological Faculty, Ireland, which is incorporated by Royal Charter.
Queen's has now agreed that holders of the GDipYM will also be eligible to receive the new Queen's Degree-Plus award. For details, see www.qub.ac.uk/directorates/degreeplus/RoutestoDegreePlus/ and select Route A.

The Internal Revenue Service offers a program that allows two-thirds of U.S. taxpayers to electronically file their tax returns for free.
The Free File program is a free federal tax preparation and electronic filing program for eligible taxpayers developed through a partnership between the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Free File Alliance LLC, a group of private sector tax software companies. Since Free File's debut in 2003, more than 15.4 million returns have been prepared and e-filed through the program. Free File allows taxpayers with an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) of $52,000 or less in 2006 to e-file their federal tax returns for free. That means 70 percent of all taxpayers — 95 million taxpayers — can take advantage of the Free File program.
The IRS list of participating companies includes links to the available programs. Some companies have more restrictive requirements than the IRS guidelines. For example, in order to use TurboTax, you must earn $28,500 or less.
Charlie at PearBudget chose H&R Block's TaxCut, which he found easy to use:
They've done a terrific job of explaining everything you need to know, and they've made the interface extremely usable and clear. I finished my federal taxes in about four hours, but part of that was time spent looking for receipts.
This Free File program only applies to your federal return; it does not include your state return. From my experience, though, once you've computed the numbers for your federal income tax forms, you can use many of them as a basis to complete your state income tax form.
This is a great deal for many people. Check into it if you haven't done your taxes yet. For more info, read the Free File FAQ at the IRS web site.
Speaking of "free" and "taxes", Ramit at I Will Teach You to Be Rich is bringing in an expert to answer questions:
I have a CPA who'll answer tax questions for free. Your readers can ask anything on their mind and my guy will try to write a response to the best questions. This will be a series going right up until the end of tax season.

Most cysts are harmless, but some may cause problems such as rupturing, bleeding, or pain. ovarian cysts affect women of all ages. The vast majority of ovarian cysts are considered FUNCTIONAL (or physiologic) or simple cyst. In other words, they have nothing to do with disease.

Some ovarian cysts disappear after the cease of ministration....
what causes ovarian Cysts In Someone Who Hasn''t Had Children?

Does anyone know what causes ovarian cysts and/or what can be done to prevent them?
A: ovarian cysts are when you release an egg and there is nothing there to fertilize it, it usually passes through, but the egg attaches itself to your ovaries and then it forms a cyst. I get them all the time- birth control can prevent them- u would normally get them around the time you ovulate. The normal function of the ovaries is to produce an egg each month. During the process of ovulation, a cyst-like structure called a follicle is formed inside the ovary. The mature follicle ruptures when an egg is released during ovulation. The corpus leteum forms from the empty follicle and if pregnancy does not occur, the corpus leteum dissolves. Sometimes this process does not conclude appropriately causing the most common type of ovarian cyst --...

Other cysts may grow large, become painful, and run the danger of rupturing, which can harm the ovary and is a medical emergency. The most common types of ovarian cysts are called functional cysts, and these occur when something goes wrong during ovulation. An ovary produces a follicle each month, which is similar to a cyst, and this releases an egg. Sometimes the release doesnt occur and a follicular cyst may result, where the follicle...

ovarian cysts, how common are they? Has anyone here had one and had to have it removed?
A: I did have one on one of my ovaries causing me a great deal of pain. I had it removed by laproscopic surgery and never had any problems. Recovery time was about a week.

After about a week and a half she is usually back to normal and can take care of her kids again. I had a couple when I was about 17. They hurt terribly, but I never had surgery. My doctor told me to just rest and they would burst on their own…. It sounds worse than it is I had laparoscopic surgery (thru the belly button) for what was supposed to be an ovarian cyst.

13 Y.O. Daughter With ovarian Cysts
A: Dear 13 Y.O. Daughter With ovarian Cysts, Rest assured that ovarian cysts are actually very common in women of childbearing age. An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac, almost like a blister, that forms in an ovary. Most cysts are produced as a result of normal hormonal functioning. All women actually develop small ovarian cysts during the menstrual cycle, when an egg matures in a small sac on the surface of the ovary. Normally the egg is released from the sac (ovulation) and the sac dissolves. But if a normal sac keeps expanding, it becomes a cyst. Another type of cyst may form if when the egg is released, the channel through which it has burst seals off very quickly, and the area...

Hey Kelsey! Glad to see you around again, you've been missed. I'm still due on the 19th as well but still not sure that it won't be a c-section so I would also have a chance of having him a tad sooner.
How are the wedding plans going??? Looking forward to hearing more from you. Glad everything is going well so far despite the arrhythmia!

I am due August 21st, So pretty close to you I would say! I was also feeling in between threads. I have been ready to move into the 3rd tri for a while but then again, mostly all you see here are birth stories! I wish I was at that point lol! A little about me, this is my second pregnancy. I have a DS who is 3 years old and I'm pregnant with a little girl now and I am over the moon Her name is Emma, no middle name established yet.
Congrats on getting married soon, my 5 year anniversary is tomorrow, so hard to believe! I went to the doctor last Thursday after I got dehydrated and ended up in the hospital with preterm labor, not fun! But, everything is looking good now after a little fluids and according to my ultrasound Emma is weighing a whopping 2 pounds and 3 oz and measuring over a week ahead in length! I imagine she is going to be tall like her mommy
Unfortunately, ever since my preterm laboe episode I just haven't been feeling my best I have been so exhausted and uncomfortable. I have SPD and her head is buried between my hips making the pressure worse. My stomach feels so tight like it could explode when I'm standing or walking too, and that is just so uncomfortable. Anyone else feel similar or is it just me who feels 36 weeks pregnant instead of 26?
Thanksfor the thread, it's nice to see that I do belong somewhere

I think I belong here too, I'm due 23rd august.
Bit of history, I have 4 kids, 3 girls (8,3 and 2) and 1 boy (5) and thi is my second boy. We lost his twin early on and had a huge subchorionic bleed lifting the edge of the placenta discovered at 12+2, its still there now at 26+2 and I've been bleeding and on bedrest for 14 weeks now I go to perinatology every 2 week and my OB in the week between. Little guy was expected at around 23-24 weeks and we did have to have labour stopped at 23 weeks but he hanged on and we have steroids on board Holding out for 28 weeks but 30 would be awesome! He's measuring small at the 10-20th percentile due to placenta not being used fully but is growing on his curve. My other 4 were preemie (2 at 35 weeks, a 33 weeker and a 32 weeker) as well so I'm on weekly progesterone shots as well as nifedipine (procardia) for contractions.
Oh yes def feel further on as well, when they engage it makes the pelvis so uncomfortable A cushion between the knees can help a well as physio if it gets really bad

Ugh yeah August will definitely be an overwhelming and crazy time!! I'm hoping I'll at least get a few days before having baby Jax and Dylan starting Kindergarten but we will see!!
How is your pregnancy going so far? Is there a reason why you think you might get induced early? That would be really neat if your baby got here on Aug 26th
We have a new puppy so I'm reeeeaaaally hoping she gets along with the baby! She is just a small little thing though, 5 lbs at the most and she has NEVER growled or sniped at my 4 year old so I"m thinkin we will be okay!! I'm glad you and I found each other again! Now we can stay in touch through the end!!!!!
What are you doing in Australia? That seems exciting I've always wanted to go there!! I'm sorry to hear about your brother though Hope everything is okay.... It must be really hard going through all of this without your mom or any of your family close by That is sooo awesome that you get 6 months of maternity leave though!! That's just crazy!! I want that lol!! Well at least you have this site for some support in the mean time
Sorry about the cramping you're experiencing right now that's awful. I had some cramping and pressure problems around 20 weeks and was put on pelvic rest and that seemed to help... Jax was head down at that point and I think thats where most of it was coming from because as soon as he switched positions and became breech I felt soooo much better!! He recently switched back to head down and my cramps and the pressure is starting again Lol! I just hope I can stay feeling okay until after my wedding!! Once that happens I will be more than fine with taking it easy!!
I'm hoping I follow you pattern and have my son at 37 weeks! That would be perfect!!
Woohoo for the 3rd tri!! I'm getting super excited about everything!! It feels like there's a light at the end of this tunnel now!!
How has everything been going with you?!
Sorry to hear about the SPD I have sciatic nerve problems really bad and I feel as though I am getting SPD. By about 8PM I can barley walk, my hips feel like theyre going to give out! It's awful Ugh especially sitting on the toilet seat, ouch!!! I'm also to the point where I can't sleep because I'm so uncomfortable in bed and rolling over is just excruciating!
I'm hoping the 3rd tri will go by quickly as well!!
Yay for the 19th!! It's a good day
Wedding plans are going great!! Everything is set up and ready!! I picked up my dress today and LOVE IT! They are taking out the zipper and putting a corset in the back so I will fit into the dress no matter how much I grow this next month
Fill me in on everything with you! How is baby?!
Sorry to hear about your miscarriages So this is your 4th? I want to have 4 Is this going to be your last??
I bet a December wedding was BEAUTIFUL!! Mine will be soooo HOT!! It will be about 110F I will be dying but oh well lol
Happy Anniversary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's so awesome!!!
Sorry to hear about your preterm labor scare were you having contractions or what? That would be so scary I'm glad they stopped it and that everything is okay with your little one!! Did they put you on bed rest or anything??
OMG I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY!! Everything you described is me to a T!!! I feel like I am close to giving birth and I"m only 26 weeks!! I don't remember feeling like this until I was like 36+ weeks with my son! It's crazy! I don't know how I'm going to make it another 13 week!!
How is bed rest going? That can't be easy with 4 kids! You're a strong momma!! Keep up the amazing work!!!!!
*** It looks like we have an awesome group going here **** So glad I feel like I fit in SOMEWHERE again!!!!!!!!

Wow thats one big reply
110F heat? Sounds alot like here in San Diego, been upto the high 90s a few times already! We got married at 7 months pregnant years ago but in dec, was so much fun, congratulations
My little guy starts kindergarten this year too, crazy how fast they grow up You excited/nervous?
Pets can be good with children, we have an englih bulldog, she's getting old now so doesnt do much more than sunbathe lol but is so good with the kids Just got to supervise all the time becaue she's pretty big. Not sure about cats but same rules should apply? Give them time to adapt.
Phrumkidost, so sorry to hear about your brother
Bed rest sucks, was nice to have a break for a bit but now its dragging, my muscles are really weak and its just boring We had to get a nanny My 2 older kids go to different schools (my on is in special ed pre school) and then my youngest has to have loads of therapies throughout the week for her rett syndrome so just impossible without help. Just want to get up and do it myself though

Yeah it's going to be hot hot hot but I'm not going to be outside much, thank god! I might go down to the pool for a bit too but we will see how huge I feel at 30/31 weeks!!
I'm both excited and nervous! I know I'll just start bawling!! I can't believe my little boy will be in Kindergarten! It's so crazy!!!!!!!!!! I just hope he loves it because I HATED it lol!
That's good that you got a nanny, you would have to! Seems like you have a pretty busy house!! I can only imagine how your muscles are feeling I got a horrible flu/cold when I was about 12 weeks and I stayed in bed for a good solid week and even that started to kill me! Although bed rest seems wonderful some days

Our mission is to serve as a reference point for Apple II software, hardware and the like. It is not intended to be another Apple II history site, but more targeted toward reference materials such as hardware configuration, compatibility guides, repair tips, hardware hacks and mods, and related sub-topics.Ă'Â MediaWiki has been chosen as the presentation platform for it's strong support base and expansive options. Some parts of the Apple2.info online reference are open to community participation, with the first being the csa2 usenet faq.

I put the finishing touches on some updates and upgrades, mostly behind the scenes, but some content has been modified and clarified as well. The MediaWiki installation was updated recently, and the themed font display has been changed fully to CSS3's @font-face instead of using the hardcoded graphic generator. This is much friendlier to mobile devices, search engines and most important of all, the web server loads.
These changes have been applied to both the A2-Reference Wiki and the WordPress content. As always, if you have any suggestions for new additions, both expanding on whats here already and things you might like to see, drop a line using the contact form.
We're working on an Apple II Registry database where you'll be able to submit your hardware details, and we'll have have an optional live map showing where the submissions come from if you so desire to contribute your general location too! More will be posted about this later.. .

Not trying to steal any thunder, I think Ben Heckendorn's portable IIgs definitely raises the bar. No questions there. But.. if there had been an Engadget in the days of GWB's loosing election for a second term, I think I would have been there with it. It's really hard to believe it's been that long. But the first portable IIgs I built using an Otrona luggable CP/M machine as the case made it's debut at the Apple Expo East, at The Castle Expo Center, Boston, on Oct 2nd, 1992. Just weeks before the national elections. What made that event memorable was in the very same hotel that the Apple Expo was based out of, was right across the street from some high level Republican convention in Boston the same week and the hotel was busy giving all our rooms out to higher paying reporters and the like. GWB was on site while the Apple Expo East was going on. The SS was all over the rooftops, we were looking out a window from the 8th floor when our phone rang, "Close the Window", they said. Diz and Burger Bill were in the room with us. We decided to walk to China Town, and while making our way through the protesters that had gathered at the base of the two hotels, we all started chanting "Apple II Forever!". Why not, everyone else there had a cause and since national TV was near, why not. A few of us even had some signs. When we opened the window, a portion of the crowd was singing, "Na-na na-na.. hey-hey.. good-bye .." and "six more weeks! six more weeks!" But anyway, as I prepared the day and evening before my flight from Carlsbad, CA to LAX and then to BOS, I was doing final preparation on the Apple IIgs Portable, tweaking the amber monitor just ever so much to get the perfect picture. My flight from Carlsbad was a very short one, the IIgs fit just perfectly on the belt and they were definitely curious.. of course, it was carry-on. At LAX I had about a 3 hour wait for the flight east. I practiced the now modern day activity of seeking out a spot near an electrical outlet. It wasn't hard back then. Hardly anyone travelled with anything that needed plugging in.. except me. I had been known to sit on the floor in a terminal during long layovers with an entire IIgs system plugged in.
Anyhow, there I am sitting with the IIgs Portable, I'm playing the IIgs version of Ultima I on it… a massive crowd goes past and I hear this voice, "hey, thats Burger Bill's Ultima I for the IIgs!" and see a hand waiving from the crowd..
At the Expo, the Macintosh version of Lemmings was released, and they were there at the Expo with it. I had appropriated some of their marketing materials and positioned them at my Apple II booth with added captions, "port us to the IIgs", and the like. I still have those items, and at one time I presented some of them to the Brutal Deluxe folks some years later during one of their visits to California.
This post was about the IIgs portable, and without further ado, here are some of my images from back then. Sorry for the "quality". these were great in 1993 and 1995 when they were done. 🙂 The Original Portable Apple IIgs – http://www.apple2.org/AppleIIgsPortables.html.

A British couple was rescued from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean by an Italian tanker after spending 40 days lost at sea.
Stuart Armstrong, 51, and his partner Andrea Davison, 48, are heading back to Britain on board the supertanker Indian Point.
Although unhurt, they were tired, exhausted and grateful to be returning home after their six-week ordeal in which they "stared death in the face."
The drama began on Jan. 9, six days after the couple left the Cape Verde Islands off the West Coast of Africa on board their yacht Sara.
They were headed for Antigua where they intended to anchor until April.
But, midway through the 2,550-mile journey disaster struck and the rudder on the yacht jammed to starboard. Attempts to fix it were useless.
At this stage the couple, who live on the yacht in Majorca, were in the middle of the Atlantic, 1,200 miles from Antigua, five days sailing time away and out of range for any rescue attempt.
"In effect we were sailing round and round in circles as the rudder was stuck all the way over," Armstrong said, speaking from the Indian Point. "We tried to counteract this by putting droves over the side to try and help point the boat towards land but we didn't really have any great success."
"At first we were not too bothered as we had a good supply of dry provisions, the usual things you have on a boat - pasta, kidney beans, biscuits, rice and soya. There was also plenty of water to keep us going, the radio was still working and we had power so there was no need to be too worried."
He continued, "I have crossed the Atlantic seven times and this was Andrea's fourth so we are pretty experienced and for the first few days it was a challenge and a bit of an adventure."
"We alerted the coastguards in Britain and America and we also let our families know. I spent a good few days trying to fix the rudder as well but I just didn't have any luck."
Their first problem was around 10 days or so later when the alternator broke which meant they had no power.
"All that we had was a small solar panel which gave us enough to fire up the satellite phone but we had to ration it," he said. "The loss of the alternator also meant that we could not use the desalination unit which turns sea water into drinking water so we also had to start rationing that as well."
The American Coast Guard monitored their position but because of their remote location a rescue attempt was impossible and the couple simply carried on drifting with the current pushing them slowly towards the Caribbean.
During their weeks at sea the couple's yacht was battered by storms but they managed to escape unscathed. However, as they neared the Bermuda triangle after more than a month at sea conditions began to worsen.
The reduced electrical power meant that Armstrong could only talk to his daughter once or twice a week and it was the same for Davison and her two children.
"At first they were OK with our situation because they know Stuart is a good sailor but I think as time moved on they started to get more concerned and so did I," said Davison. "We kept getting hit by storms but we managed to get out of them with no real problems. But I knew we were riding our luck and we wouldn't be able to go on for much longer."
