Having more than one operating system on a single PC is useful for many reasons. Maybe you can't live without the exmh mailer on Linux, but you need the classic productivity suite in Windows NT. Or maybe you're a programmer, and you're porting a UNIX application to NT. Running both systems on one PC, although not as convenient as dedicating a machine to each system, can save the cost of an additional PC and the clutter of multiple hardware setups.
Setting up a PC to boot more than one operating system is not difficult. Many techniques and tools are available for dual-booting. Some are direct and simple; others invite confusion and inconvenience. Your choice of a dual-booting technique depends on which operating system you use most often, which system you are more comfortable with, and how you have structured your disk partitions. I think the techniques in this article are the best in most circumstances.
Remember two important, if familiar, pieces of advice. First, before you install a second OS, back up your current one. I've lost the contents of a hard disk only three or four times in three decades of intensive computer use, and one of those times occurred during an attempt to install multiple systems on a hard disk. Second, keep things simple. I've wasted hours trying to figure out why a slightly bizarre arrangement of boot files and partitions doesn't quite work. Just set up the systems in the simplest way you can, and go to the beach.
Booting Basics
When a PC boots, a small program in the computer's ROM tries to find and execute another small program on either a floppy or the first hard disk. This program in turn starts another program. Eventually, the programs load enough of the operating system so that it can begin its usual operation.
The small, simple ROM program that begins the boot process does not carry out a sophisticated search for the next program in the sequence, but follows a simple convention to find its target. If you have inserted a floppy into the drive, the boot code loads the first sector (i.e., the first 512-byte storage unit) of the floppy into memory and executes it. This boot sector continues the boot sequence. You can configure some computers to skip the initial check for a mounted floppy and boot from the hard disk.
In the absence of a floppy, the ROM boot code reads the first sector of the hard disk (or of the first hard disk if the system has more than one). This sector, the Master Boot Record (MBR), contains a small program that continues the boot process. The MBR also contains a partition table that describes how you configure the disk into one or more virtual disks, or partitions.
Partitions are useful in several ways. For example, NT and Linux support different native file systems; their methods for keeping track of files on disk are incompatible. To install both OSs on one machine, you need two disks. Partitions let you create two or more virtual disks on the same physical device. You can format each partition according to its operating system's file structure.
The conventional format of the MBR requires that the boot code and the partition table share the crowded confines of a 512-byte record. The limited size of the partition table restricts the number of partitions to four primary partitions per hard disk. (You can configure a primary partition as an extended partition, within which you can define another world of partitions. However, the added complexity of these partitions-inside-a-partition, or logical partitions, is such that you usually cannot boot them.) With NT on one partition and Linux on another, dual-booting comes down to how to conveniently boot from one partition or another.
Partition Configuration
The structure of partitions on a PC hard disk is usually not as neat as you would like. If you set up a system from scratch, you can allocate the disks between operating systems in some simple way: two primary partitions, for example. If you already run NT, you probably have a spare partition, maybe a logical partition, that you can clear and make available for Linux.
Problems in the original design of the PC can limit the possible partition configurations. Sometimes, the BIOS supports only the first two drives. Also, some BIOS code cannot read boot programs or data from cylinders above 1024. (Disks store information in cylinders, tracks, and sectors. Modern, large-capacity disks can have more cylinders than the original PC specification anticipated.) Fortunately, these two problems don't pertain to NT because of the way NT boots.
However, another problem does affect NT. Boot programs sometimes cannot handle disks larger than 4GB. BOOTPART (a small, downloadable freeware program that helps you add partitions--including Linux partitions--to the standard NT boot menu) has such a limitation.
The basic rule for setting up operating system partitions is to create (or use existing) low, primary partitions on the first hard drive. You can relax this rule, but at the expense of complications in setup and maintenance.
Boot Techniques
You can choose between two flexible, reliable dual-booting tools and techniques: BOOTPART (with the NT boot loader NTLDR) and the Linux Loader (LILO). Both work well, but if you're comfortable with NT, pick BOOTPART; if you're more familiar with Linux, pick LILO.
BOOTPART and NTLDR
|The basic rule for setting up OS partitions is to create low primary partitions on the first hard drive.
The BOOTPART program is simple in principle: It writes a 512-byte file containing a pseudo-boot sector that takes control from the standard NT boot loader, NTLDR, and in turn boots the target partition's boot sector. BOOTPART edits the NT boot.ini file to include a pointer to the new file and a boot menu item that you can choose as NT boots. If you are adding Linux to a primarily NT system (especially if you might remove Linux later), choose this dual-boot method. This method requires no changes to the MBR, and you need only one console command to remove the Linux option from the boot menu.
Setup. Install NT, if you haven't already installed it; then install Linux. Make sure that LILO resides in the boot record of the partition in which Linux resides; that is, the boot= and root= parameters of the /etc/lilo.conf file must refer to the same partition. Do not install LILO in the MBR: NT controls the MBR in this configuration. For easy and reliable installation, I recommend Red Hat Linux 4.0. Although Linux installation is never automatic, the Red Hat distribution comes close to that ideal. (The robust bootpart/ntldr/lilo booting chain functions properly even if the Linux kernel is in a logical partition.) The next step is to run the LILO map installer, /sbin/lilo, then reboot NT.
Next, install BOOTPART, if you haven't already installed it. A convenient place for BOOTPART is %systemroot%\winnt\system32. At the MS-DOS prompt, type
BOOTPART LISTThis routine produces a list of partitions on all available disks.
Find the Linux-type partition on which you've installed Linux, and note its number within the BOOTPART list. If the Linux partition is 3, for example, type
BOOTPART 3 C:\LINXBOOT.BIN Linux
This routine tells the system to create the file c:\linxboot.bin, which includes a chain loader that runs the boot sector of partition 3 (where LILO is ready to boot Linux). Also, the statement tells the system to add a choice named Linux to the NT boot menu (the c:\linxboot.bin file).
Reboot NT. The Linux choice should appear in the NT boot menu. Using the arrow keys, select Linux, and press Enter. Welcome to Linux.
If you use the Control Panel System applet, you can choose any operating system in the NT boot menu as the default system. And you can choose a timeout, after which the default system will boot in the absence of a specific user menu choice.
Removal. At the MS-DOS prompt, type
BOOTPART LISTand make a note of the partition number of the Linux system partition. If the Linux partition is 3, type
The Linux partition is now free for other use.
LILO is designed specifically as a boot loader for Linux, but LILO also can chain load the boot sector of Microsoft systems. You can configure LILO to boot directly to a default system or to pause for user input, letting users choose among two or more operating systems at boot time.
If Linux will be your primary OS (and especially if you might remove NT later), use LILO as your basic system loader. LILO is hard to configure (its user's guide has more than 40 pages), but it permits flexible setups.
Setup. If you haven't already installed it, install Linux. Place the boot loader in the MBR, unless you have reason not to.
Next, install NT in a primary partition. LILO can boot a foreign system only from a primary (not a logical) partition. If the NT installation procedure complains about the current MBR, do not let it overwrite the MBR. Note the drive number and partition number of the NT system partition.
Reboot the system and start Linux. Add the following section at the end of the LILO configuration file (/etc/lilo. conf)
other=/dev/hda4 label=ms table=/dev/hda
where the other= field is the device name. The first IDE drive is hda, the second hdb, and so forth; the partitions are numbered from 1. So, the fourth partition on the first IDE drive is /dev/hda4. The label= field contains the letters you choose to type at boot-time to boot NT. The table= parameter is redundant; set it to the same value as the device, but delete the partition number.
If you want to adjust the time that LILO waits for user input before the default system boots, find and edit the value of the timeout= parameter. The value's units are tenths of seconds, so enter 100 to delay 10 seconds before booting the default. /etc/lilo.conf mentions the default system first; to set a new default, move the entire system's section so that it appears before the current default. Run /sbin/lilo to effect the changes you've made to /etc/lilo.conf.
Removal. Edit /etc/lilo.conf and remove the NT section described above or comment out (with #) the section. Run/sbin/lilo to effect the changes you've made to /etc/lilo.conf. The NT partition is now free for other use.
Ready to Roll
Whether your primary system is Linux or NT, these tips present a straightforward way to install both systems on one PC. For more information about NT booting, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article number Q101787. You can find BOOTPART 2.0 at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/gvollant/bootpart.htm. You can obtain a complete description of LILO in all Linux distributions or at ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Linux-boot.

No. 11 Pepperdine Surges To 10-0 Win Over UC Davis
Feb. 28, 2009
Courtesy of Pepperdine
DAVIS, Calif. – No. 11 Pepperdine continued to receive outstanding starting pitching Saturday morning in a 10-0 win (7 inning) at UC Davis. This time it was sophomore Scott Alexander's (Windsor, Calif./Cardinal Newman HS) turn to shine and he did not disappoint with four strikeouts in the first game of a doubleheader with the Aggies.
Alexander's shutout was the first of his career and the three hits he allowed matched his lowest game total since a 10-2 victory over Oral Roberts University in March of 2008.
Equally dominating today was the Pepperdine offense, which has kept everything easy for the pitchers during its current four-game win streak. Pepperdine (5-1) pounded out 10 hits against Aggie (1-5) pitching for the second straight game led by junior third baseman Colin Rooney's (Yorba Linda, Calif./Esperanza HS) 2-for-2, 3 RBI day at the plate.
Batting from the No. 9 spot, Rooney clubbed a single, double and drove in two more runs via the sacrifice fly in the fourth and sixth innings. The Saddleback College transfer also scored two runs.
The Waves scored single runs in second and third before putting the game out of reach with crooked numbers across the scoreboard in the fourth through sixth innings.
Freshman centerfielder Brian Humphries' (El Cajon, Calif./Granite Hills HS) bases-loaded two-RBI single was the big hit in a three-run fourth, and in the fifth, the Waves' came through with three more two-out RBI.
Pepperdine's scoring run was capped with a two-run sixth, in which freshman designated hitter Ryan Van Amburg (Campbell, Calif./St. Francis HS) doubled in Trent Diedrich (Fresno, Calif./Bullard HS) and came around to score on Rooney's sac fly to center.
Diedrich's run in the sixth was his third of the game, and his two singles and pair of walks enabled Pepperdine's bottom half of the order (No. 6 through 9 batters) to drive in seven runs on six hits.
Two more RBI came off the bat of leadoff man Bryce Mendonca (San Leandro, Calif./Bishop O' Dowd HS), while another run was scored on a passed ball.
As if they weren't doing a good enough job just hitting the ball, the Waves also benefited from a total of three passed balls charged to catcher Scott Kalush, plus 11 walks, two fielding errors and a wild pitch. UC Davis starter Andy Suiter (0-2) was guilty of six of those free passes.
Senior leftfielder David Harris (Glendora, Calif./Glendora HS) led the Waves with four walks in five plate appearances.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
After running the definitions update, the software gave me an error and asked to close. When I tried to restart Avast, I received yet another error message. The message I've been dealing with was "can not initialize avast! engine: Invalid argument." After a bit of poking around, I got it working by tweaking a kernel variable. I did my troubleshooting by running Avast in the CLI.
As root (not sudo), I entered this into the terminal:
echo 128000000 >/proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
Now the next hurdle was to discover that Avast wants to me seek out a license key. Unlike Bitdefender though, this release of Avast isn't trialware. So asking me to fill out a form and then wait for 20 minutes is just stupid. Finally, the registration code arrived and I was able to get everything registered.
From the Unity dash, I launched Avast. I was again asked for my registration code. I entered it and I was finally ready to use the software. Unlike ClamTK/ClamAV, Avast doesn't offer scheduled scanning. Instead, you can only schedule virus definition updates. On the plus side, I've "heard" that Avast does a little better with malware and rootkits, than other programs. So for that reason, I find myself leaning with Avast more than other programs.
Now that we have had a look at handling malware, it's time to think about more Linux specific security concerns.
On any Linux distribution, including Ubuntu, your firewall needs are going to be handled differently than you might be used to on Windows. To take the sting out of this – and assuming that firewall protection for the Ubuntu workstation takes place exclusively at the local level – I recommend using GUFW.
Using Ubuntu's firewall tool, known as "uncomplicated firewall" or UFW, the GUFW application adds a nice user interface to UFW for newbies. Adding or removing ports for specific applications is brain-dead easy with this software. Even better, you can go to advanced mode and handle specific ports over varied protocols.
File sharing considerations
Another area to be wary of is file sharing. Many of us, might be tempted to simply run with Samba shares and let our data flow freely between PCs. This is a bit messy and potentially puts your system at risk.
Instead, I recommending sharing folders over OpenSSH. And when using SSH, do not rely on SSH passwords for protection. Regardless of which port you setup for SSH, you will be hit all day long by brute force password attacks.
I recommend going with a RSA key instead. It's also worthwhile, in my opinion, to disable "PermitRoot" and run SSH on a non-default port. All of these things together will help to "harden" your SSH security.
Updates and encryption
Two other items on my basic security list are keeping your workstation updated with the latest updates, and if you like, encryption for sensitive data.
The updates, are fairly obvious _ when Ubuntu prompts you to update security updates, do so. As for the encryption, I recommend reading up on encfs for folder encryption and GPG encryption for email. Neither of these two options are a "must do," however they do offer you privacy from prying eyes.
And last but not least, if you're visiting a coffee shop or perhaps browsing on a public wi-fi network, I recommend looking into Tor for browsing privacy. Because software is readily available that lets other users snoop on what you're doing online, even your login details for various sites, privacy matters.
To be clear, this isn't a replacement for https on websites for banking or other sensitive matters. Instead, Tor merely offers you a means of adding a layer of privacy on the data being sent into the Tor network.
If the Tor installation you're using is only for coffeeshop web browsing, I recommend the Tor configured release of Firefox. It's ready to go out of the box and dead simple to use. If you need better protection, then you might look into OpenVPN instead.

It could be said that the Silleteros Parade is a gigantic staging, a collective dramaturgy that passes before the spectators as a sequence of episodes that, as a whole, narrates a story. Medellín projects itself to the world with its most festive face by means of this parade.
Antonio Castrillón, vereda El Plan. Silletero fundador Periódico OCCIDENTE de Medellín, 18 de marzo de 1957
Little by little, the rural surroundings came to make part of the urban ceremony, from the very moment when the Flowers Festival organizers invited a group of silleteros through the flower merchants of the Cisneros Public Market. Those were the silleteros who used to come down from Santa Elena to stand in front of church atriums and other public markets or to walk through neighborhoods with their silletas full of flowers making a tour of Medellín's heart.
Pedro Antonio Soto Hernández, vereda Piedra Gorda, 1975
The great social and esthetic impact of these humble rural characters with their eye-catching load as one of the most salient protagonists of the Fiesta of Liberty and Flowers was immediately translated into an important display of photographs published in the local and the national press, as well as on television and newsreels. The Silleteros Parade had arrived to stay in the nation's heart as an exceptional show in the national festive calendar.
The routes of the parades of the first fairs emulated the structure and the passage plan of those established by the religious model and ended at the atrium of the Villanueva Cathedral. The monumentality of the altars in the religious model was gradually passed to the silletas of the civic ceremony of the fair. In both cases, the floral trait underlined people's ceremonial disposition toward the sacred and the profane.
The marching order and the segments that comprise the parade express a hierarchy of scenic items and a sequence of events that catch people's attention by the display of energy, vigor, plasticity and coordination of the different groups marching along the central avenues of the Antioquian capital.
The march has contrasting rhythms. It can be said that the slow pace of the silleteros carrying a heavy load on their back represents the silent effort of their physical work when working on the furrows. Here, they are surrounded by thundering trumpets and school drums and by the joviality and the happiness of the dancing groups which harmonize with every segment of silletas. All this provokes a lot of excitement in the spectators.
Entrada de los silleteros al Estadio Atanasio Girardot, 1996
The folk groups of musicians and dancers performing in-between the silletas in motion are mainly school marching bands and chirimías or traditional musical ensembles as well as dance schools and groups, some of them belonging to local companies or public institutions. These groups cheer up the parade with their beautiful Colombian choreographies, with the spectacular display of regional garments that add to the general color and art of this caravan of joy. Recently, some comparsas or theater groups from other guest festivals such as Barranquilla's Carnival and Pasto's Blacks and Whites Carnival have joined the parade.
The imposing Silleteros Parade, which is 50 years old today, is closed by the siren of the old fire truck, announcing that the curtain falls until next year.
Noemy Ramírez Londoño, vereda Barro Blanco. Calle San Juan, 1999
The trip down to the city, a preamble to the great Silletero Parade, serves as respite to the tiring work of making the Silletas, during the previous night. Luis Fernando Soto, Annexed Village El Llano; Jáder Zapata, Annexed Village Perico.
Proveniente de Santa Elena, la caravana de vehículos cargados de silletas va haciendo su arribo al sitio de partida del desfile. Armando Londoño, vereda Barro Blanco.
Surrounded by her elders, already accustomed to the yearly event, Silleterito Cristina Zapata Zapata, from Annexed Village of El Rosario, gets ready to live her first party. She is accompanied by Campo Elías Zapata, also from Annexed Village of El Rosario.
Coming from quiet rural Santa Elena, these men and women, with their silletas filled with flowers, offer a respite to agitated city life.
Timeless outfits, the straw hat, the ruana (a poncholike garment), the tapapinche (apron) the carriel or satchel, the sheathed machete, and the cotizas (a kind of ceremonial sandal) are a must for the men; and for the women, the embroidered blouse and skirt, the shawl, and the scarf, all fundamental when dressing for the Silletero Parade. Pictured are, Raúl Londoño A., Annexed Village of El Placer, Diego Alonso Alzate A., Annexed Village of Mazo, and María Eugenia Grajales, Annexed Village of Piedra Gorda.
The Silleta has survived the long journey down the mountain from Santa Elena to the streets of Medellín. Time to give the last finishing touches to the Silleta before the Parade.
As if protecting a fragile creature, Silletero Gladis Elena Londoño, from Annexed Village of Barro Blanco, safeguards her entry from the hot sun, while she awaits the beginning of the Parade.
Finalists anxiously await by their Silletas for the judges' verdict. Each dreams of the Best of Show award. In the photograph, from left to right, Nelly García Zapata, (winner, Emblematic Silleta), Gabriel Jaime Atehortúa (winner, Monumental Silleta), and Juan Carlos Grajales (winner, Traditional Silleta).
This year, the Silleteros imagination went overboard, as a veritable river of designs celebrating the Parade's 50th anniversary, inundated the streets. Pictured, Genoveva Londoño de Zapata, Annexed Village of Barro Blanco.
Every Silleta, every design emblazoning it, is the object of pleasant niceties and friendly encounters. Dialogue adds to the already rich traditions of the half-century-old Silletero Parade.
This Silletero pauses to ponder just minutes before the start of the parade amid the fragrances of flowers, pine needles, and the myriad of other plants used in the Silletas.
The art of Silleta making is performed by people from all walks of life. There are farmers, professional men and women, clerks, and students who, come August, become Silleta makers.
Different artistic groups accompany the silleteros adding variety to the Silleteros Parade.
For the silletero, it is an honor to participate in the parade.
Images like these become unforgettable images for those who experience the Silleteros Parade first hand.

Cheering crowds, the best encouragement silleteros can get for their hard work, effort, and artistry.
This prize-winning Silletero's art, imagination, and effort make the warp and weft that braid the tracks of memory ingrained in the subconscious of thousands of spectators. Pictured here with his award-winning Silleta, David Atehortúa, Annexed Village of El Placer.
Today will be a day to never forget for Silletero Nelly Alexandra García Zapata, Best of Show winner. In the picture, she receives her award from Mrs. Lina Moreno, wife of Álvaro Uribe, president of Colombia.
A tour through the various annexed villages and Silletero homes of Santa Elena affords the visitor a close up view of deeply seeded religious convictions. The parade offers the Silletero a space to honor these beliefs.
Parade streets line up with crowds to honor and shower the Silleteros in applause as they stroll by. No one wants to miss this multicolored celebration.
Once the Silleteros made their niche in Medellín, the city acknowledged them and scheduled a parade in their honor. And it has been 50 years since. Today, the Silletero Parade is an icon of the city.
The parade brings together symbolic ideals of culture set in urban contrasts and today exalting Antioquia people's nobleness and vigor.
The Medellin Metro overpass serves as backdrop for the Silleteros Parade and two of Antioquia's most beloved symbols fuse into one.
The Silleteros Parade is another venue to exalt our patriotism.
The multi-colored silletas and typical outfits worn by silleteros are always a visual attraction.
Today is a festive day in Medellín.
The old adage "When the silleteros go by, it is Antioquia's peoples who go by", becomes a reality during the Silleteros Parade.
During its fifty-year history the Silleteros Parade has seen several different types of silletas become institutionalized, like the Emblematic Category Silleta seen here, that bring educational or public awareness messages.
Flowers and vegetation are raw materials the silletero artists use to sculpt their traditions.
City streets become a veritable carpet of flowers when Monumental Category Silletas make their way in the Silleteros Parade.
Throughout the entire Flower Fair celebration the city lives a never-ending festive air.
Medellín dresses at its best and readies her balconies and public squares to welcome and bestow honors on the Silleteros.
Ready, set, ..! Silleteros, flowers, music, attires, and dance and music groups await for The word. The city meantime fills the streets with its people who will live its traditions to the fullest.
Entertainment is the responsibility of a great number of artistic and cultural groups, who cheer the spirits of the thousands of spectators.
Getting as much appreciative applause as the Silletas, the bands and marching bands, theatre groups, cultural groups, and dancers are part of the immense choreography of the Silletero Parade.
As if lost in the boisterous parade, this Silleterito follows in the footsteps of his elders, thus prolonging this captivating tradition.
For this Silleterito, parading alongside her elders is a privilege. Children in Santa Elena start to be included in the tradition at an early age, tradition which will remain in their memories for ever.
This Silletero carries her product as it was done in years long past.

Rural and urban Medellín come together during the Silleteros Parade.
August is synonymous with life in Medellín; everything and everyone celebrate the occasion.
Silletero and flowers mesh together in a gorgeous blend of color and beauty.
The Silleteros Parade also has its share of dignified and solemn moments that stir the emotions of locals and visitors alike.
Medellin puts on its best face to celebrate its main civic event and everyone comes out to enjoy it with civic pride.
The various regions of the country celebrate their traditions and ethnicity during the Silleteros Parade, which has been declared Cultural Heritage of the Nation.
The various regions of the country show their traditions during the Silleteros Parade thus strengthening brotherly ties.
In times long gone, farmers used to trek rustic and solitary trails bringing their vegetables and flowers to the city. Now, the Silletero Parade has become an acknowledged space for city and country to meet and celebrate.
The various urban spaces blend in with flowers, as the Silleteros walk by.
Carrying a Silleta that approaches 200 lbs. in weight is a challenge that makes the Silletero proud. Pictured, José Luís Zapata A, from Annexed Village of La Palma.
The parade has always been designed to include the city's most iconic locations in its path. Here, the Silleteros are pictured, in the backdrop of La Alpujarra Administrative Center, headquarters of city and Provincial governments.
The Silletero Parade is considered Medellín's banner event. Thousands of local and visiting spectators celebrate each and every one of the hundreds of Silletas as they parade by.
The fine art applied by the Silletero can be seen in this close up of the Best of Show Silleta, the winning entry at the historic 50th anniversary Silletero Parade.The rich traditions of Antioquia are practiced in the various regions of the Province. The Silletero Parade is a lavish stage to show off.
Bands marching by to the sound of their own music, cultural groups showing off their cheerful dances, Silleteros walking by to the sound of their own inner rhythm, all come together to offer an unequaled spectacle.
The 50th anniversary Silletero Parade paid homage to Silletero pioneer founders. The Founding Fathers float proudly holds Ana Emilia Sánchez and Graciela Londoño, among others.
The Emblematic Category Silleta is one of the four types of Silletas in the Parade. It makes reference to events or icons, as the one pictured, that are associated with the region.
The men and women with their Silletas represent a community that was born and has been reared amid a universe of plants and flowers. Their tribute to this land is their imaginative handiwork that results in this uniquely embellished combination of wood, flowers, and greenery.
The Parade's 50 year history is told on the shoulders of Silleteros, who, this time are paid a special homage. Pictured, founding Silletero Oscar Londoño, from Annexed Village of El Placer.
A budding city was the stage for the trade of fruit, flowers, and vegetables brought from high up in the mountain, on the shoulders of a group of brave men and women, in rustic wooden structures.
The presence of the Mounted Police offers a solemn respite to the otherwise boisterous parade that is open to a diversity of events.
In Medellín, the various festivities have had a long tradition and have gone under different names. Beginning with the 'Flower, Fruit, and Vegetable Exhibition' in 1906, continuing with the 'Flower Display Celebration', passing through the 'Freedom and Flower Celebration', and, starting in the second half of the 20th century, the now traditional Flower Fair, where the Silletero Parade became its maximum exponent.The Silletero Parade is modeled after religious processions, keeping many aspects the same especially the abundant use of flower arrangements.

"The treatment of anterior open bite is considered the most difficult task in the orthodontic specialty. These malocclusions are frequently subjected to orthognathic surgery, with questionable results. Multiloop edgewise archwire therapy, however, has been found to be effective in treating open bite malocclusions. Multiloop edgewise archwire therapy has been shown to be versitile and capable of correcting other malocclusions, such as Class II, Class III, deep overbite, and malocclusions with marked midline deviations." ...Quoted from this link.
Anyway, yeah. I got this wire fitted on my lower teeth, while my upper braces got their usual tightening. There's a dull pain now, which is worse than usual on my lower gums T_T so I'm afraid I'd have to give up going to Toy Con altogether this year. I'll just have to enjoy it through your stories, pictures and videos ^^ so make plenty! ;D And have fun!

This past weekend, Stu and I had the wonderful opportunity to attend our friends', Brian and Ellen, annual "See and Be Seen" shindig. The premise of the party is to bring or contribute something related to one's unique talents to "be seen", and while one is showing off one's own talents, one can "see" the other contributions made by the other guests. An excellent way to observe the immense amount of talent hiding in the people we hang out with!
So, after many weeks of turmoil and consideration, I decided that my contribution would be… a cake! I enjoy baking quite a lot,and I love having the opportunity to share what I have made with people. This event, however, is a rather large event, one which would require me to make a cake larger than any other I had previously attempted. So, rolling up my sleeves, I headed to work.
Around 6 hours later (combined), I ended up with a three tier wedding-style cake. The cake itself was almond poppyseed, and in between the layers was a raspberry filling. The frosting was a cream cheese frosting with just a hint of almond. I decorated it rather simply, with green pearling around the bottom of each layer, lavender dots on the sides, and lavender flowers with green leaves on the top. Even though the cake was done, the trickiest part was still to come: transporting it! Stu did a marvelous job driving carefully, and the cake ended up at the party looking wonderful.
We had a marvelous time at the party, enjoying all the visual, culinary, musical and lyrical talents of the guests. Many thanks to Brian and Ellen for hosting such a delightful event!

Deutsche Bank and Financial Risk Management (FRM) today announced a partnership to launch the industry's first hedge fund seeding managed account platform.The dbalternatives Discovery platform, based on Deutsche Bank's established and award winning dbalternatives managed account platform, extends the investor protection afforded by its managed account framework into the hedge fund seeding arena. Developed in 2002, the dbalternatives managed account platform addresses hedge fund investor concerns regarding fraud, transparency, liquidity and independent valuation.
The aim of hedge fund seeding is to identify and invest in the funds of select emerging hedge fund managers and to provide strategic guidance to support their development. In return for committed capital, seeding investors receive fund returns and a share of the manager's revenue. The latter represents an attractive way to benefit from any growth of the hedge fund manager's assets under management.
FRM, through its hedge fund seeding division FRM Capital Advisors (FCA), will select and negotiate strategic investments in emerging managers which will be made through managed accounts on the dbalternatives Discovery platform. Deutsche Bank will also raise capital for a seeding fund which will invest in early stage hedge funds selected by FCA, which evaluates over 500 seeding opportunities annually through FRM's global investment team. Investors can therefore now utilise a high quality managed account platform to invest in a seeding fund or to invest directly into emerging hedge funds.
Deutsche Bank's Global Head of Fund Derivatives, Stephane Farouze said: "dbalternatives Discovery is set to reinvent hedge fund seeding through the introduction of managed accounts, which we believe are crucial when investing in emerging managers. Whatever the pedigree of the manager, it's in these early stages that close monitoring of risk and style drift are most essential. The dbalternatives Discovery platform will provide this through the tried and tested managed account infrastructure we have been offering to investors for the last 10 years. We are pleased to be partnering with FRM in this important new business."
FRM's Chief Executive Officer, Blaine Tomlinson added: "Structural changes in the hedge fund industry have created a new wave of opportunities in seeding. The institutionalisation of the industry has resulted in talented managers needing strategic capital to reach critical mass. In response, we built a well resourced seeding capability to identify these managers and make strategic investments. Now, we are partnering with a leader in managed account platforms with a substantial client franchise to bring seeding to a new level and a wider group of investors."
dbalternatives, Deutsche Bank's integrated hedge fund offering with $12bn of assets under management including managed accounts, hedge fund UCITS and ETF offerings, provides investors with unified direct access to Deutsche Bank's hedge fund products.
Investor and manager enquiries should be directed to email@example.com

Korfball is a team ball game, similar to mixed netball. It is played in more than 50 countries. The sport is very popular in both the Netherlands and Belgium. A team consists of four men and four women.
The English leagues are governed by the England Korfball Association (EKA). Internationally korfball is governed by the International Korfball Federation (IKF).
Video created by Ninh Ly
How to play
Korfball is played indoors or outdoors on a court divided into halves called zones. In each zone is a post (3.5m (11.5 ft), shorter for children) with a basket at the top. This is positioned two thirds of the distance between the center line and the back of the zone. The ball is similar to that used in football but with more grip and bounce. Teams have 4 men and 4 women. Players score by throwing the ball through the other team's basket. After two goals the teams change zones: defenders become attackers andattackers become defenders. At half-time teams swap halves.
Men and women play side by side, but duels are man to man and woman to woman. One man may guard one man and one woman may guard one woman. A woman may not defend a man nor may a man defend a woman.
Each team tries to score using tactics. The rules prevent physical strength dominating the game. Blocking, tackling and holding are not allowed. Nor is kicking or punching the ball. A player may not attempt to score when defended. That occurs when the defender is closer to the basket and facing his opponent, and is at arm's length and attempting to block the ball.

The procession was somber as the rag-tag group carried the ship through the tent-lined paths to a clearing. There, a woman dressed in a dark linen tunic started a fire with flint and steel. She used her hand to protect the tenuous flame from the wind until it caught the tender, then her bobbing torchlight led the way through the dusky stillness to the water's edge.
Though a crowd had gathered, few spoke, as the designated individuals lit their torches from the main flame and set their part of the boat on fire. From time to time, pained sounds escaped, as if someone were trying not to cry and failing. Fragile tendrils of smoke curled into the still air, then a man stepped forward to propel the vessel out into open water. It rode the lake's small currents, heading for the center.
This ritual has been going on since Pennsic War 30. (I just came back from 45) So for the last fifteen years, Baron Garwig of the Kingdom of Ealdormere, has been creating a Viking ship to burn in the memory of loved ones lost.
I can't really explain to you how moving it is to have this tangible way to express your grief. Those who have lost a friend, family member, or beloved pet, come and place mementos such as a favorite collar or piece of jewelry on the craft. The year I lost my grandmother, I put a shield on the lovingly constructed ship, and I was honored to be one of those chosen to carry it to the water's edge.
These special moments are important in our lives. I wanted to share this Pennsic tradition because I think it embodies much that is noble in the human spirit: compassion, a willingness to help, and a desire to remember.
If you want to learn more, Pennsic has its own newspaper, and one of the articles dealt with this subject. http://pennsicindependent.com/node/322 The Pennsic Independent is a great way to discover more about what goes on at 'war.'
Do any of you have traditions that bring family and friends together? I'd love to hear about them. Until next time… www.Dawn-Ireland.com

Wednesday on Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends," Republican presidential hopeful Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) took aim at the Obama administration in the wake of the news of a North Korea nuclear test on Tuesday.
Christie pinned the blame President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential front-runner, and said this and other events around the world are a product of a "weak American leadership."
"Listen, the problem here is that it's been a weak response by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the last seven years," Christie said. "You know, three out of the four nuclear detonations that the North Koreans have done have happened on Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's watch. And they have just not acted strongly at all around the world. It's just another example piling on top of Iran, on top of Syria, on top of Crimea and Ukraine. This is what weak American leadership gets you. And Americans should be very, very concerned about this, because we have a president right now who has no idea how to lead our country or lead the world."
Christie went on to address how he would handle these crises, but added it starts with whatever tack the United States puts forward.
"We would have been in a much different situation, Brian, if I were president of the United States," he added. "But we need to make sure that we put together a coalition of folks led by the United States that tells North Korea that this kind of conduct is just unacceptable. And we have to be able to back it up. The fact is that we've allowed North Korea, while the president's been playing footsie with the Iranians, we've allowed the North Koreans to get further and further down the nuclear road. We have to do more than just the walk. You need to walk and chew gum at the same time. This president and Hillary Clinton have not been able to do either."

Jax Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
update! :o
shortly after making this guide, i quit playing jax. this guide will not be updated, and the info in this guide may be irrelivant. BUT i plan to try to make more guides for characters i play with frequently, so check out my other builds if they intrest you,
Chapter 1
I decided to make this build after the recent hallowed patch where a lot of changes were made to Jax that people considerd to be nerfs. I made this build to show the Jax isn't nerfed, hes just different than before.
(remember this is an AP build, with lower survivability than a hybred, or damage)
Build / Reasoning
i always start off with cloth armor, 2 health pots, and 1 mana pot(you can buy more pots than that, i just choose not to), boots are nice to start with if you prefer, but it leaves you with lesser survivability and less potions to heal up with
The core items in this build are yor ninja tabi (ALWAYS buy these boots as jax) rageblade, nashors tooth,rylai's crystal scepter and lich bane (even though ive never gotten far enough to actually buy it, i think zhonya's ring is great, just for the flat ap,or a hextech gunblade, but you can put whatever you want as the last item such as a veil if theyre heavy on mages)
once you've gotten your rageblade and nashors tooth, youre pretty much unstoppable, (rageblade, nashors tooth, and your passive work together to get your attack speed to about 2.4 attacks per second within 10 attacks ((which doesnt take long))while keeping your ability power fairly high) your only threat would be a mage nuker, such as ryze, or anivia even though your ultimate keeps you relatively safe.
As long as flash is up, its usually fine to turret dive at low levels (less than 5) if they have about 200 health left, as long as you flash out before the second shot from the turret.
Even in late game, be weary of mages, they can still burst a large chunk of your health out of you if youre not careful
When im laning around level 8, and have a fair amount of survivability, i like to attack the back line of minions to lure them to attack me, that way your stun is up more often than not.
Last Words
I would like to quickly say thanks,and note that i will be updating this guide as long as i am playing LoL, and I progress as a player.

Apple Byte
Is Apple's TV really coming in 2013...or not at all?Will cable operators hold back Apple from releasing the TV it has dreamed about? Don't worry, iMacs are still on track, and the best iOS gifts for kids.
-Hey Jim, do you have my microphone. I-- I can't find it. Well-- -Ryan, you really think I look like Jim? -No. No. Charlie-- No, I-- -You idiot. -I was just-- It's a mistake. What's happening? Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple Byte for all the good and bad inside the world of Apple. And with Thanksgiving Holiday happening in the U.S., I just wanted to tell you that I'm thankful for all of you, the Apple Byters that-- that mean so much. Alright, let's get to the show and-- If it happens, we've been telling you 2013 will be the year for the Apple TV, but when can we expect it? Well, my favorite analyst who loves to make up things, Gene Munster, is back at it; now saying the Apple TV is coming out in November 2013. This is the same guy that was saying it would come out in December 2012 for sure. See, I wish I could get paid to make up fake news too. Now, the Apple TV will only be a unique offering if they're able to lock down the content deals for their goal of an ala-carte TV subscription service over the internet. That's what Apple needs to do to have their next big product. Now, if it doesn't happen, you're just looking at an Apple-designed TV with a mediocre Siri feature and the functionality of a current Apple TV at Apple's pricing. Is that what you guys really want? Well, we know Apple is taking with content and cable companies, but they want piles of money to make it happen. And it's not happening right now. So, my best guess is that we'll see an Apple TV in 2013 if they can lock down more than just a few, but not all content deals to make it compelling. We know ABC Disney is obviously in, but it really has to be more than that. And if you guys are holding off right now on buying a TV, hoping for something from Apple, don't. Alright. So, you guys can get an Apple TV, TV, but if you really love your kids, your nieces, or nephews, I know some of you do, you might want to pay attention to this Nielsen study where iOS devices were 4 of the top 5 gadgets wanted by kids 6 to 12 years old with the full-sized iPad ranked #1. Kids 13 and up picked the iPad as their top gift followed by a computer and the tablet other than an iPad was third. Now, if they surveyed what I want for Christmas, they would know it's a Dippin' Dots Frozen Dot Maker. -Cool creation. Lots of fun. Lots of taste sensation. -You know you want one. Now, Black Friday is going to be huge and Apple will have their own deals this year. They teased them once again this week, but don't look for anything major. And discounts off Apple product is somewhere around 10 to 15 percent. Last year saw discounts from 40 to 60 dollars off iPads and discounts around $100 off laptops, so look for more of the same. Also, if you're still wondering where are the new iMacs, multiple reports say there are no delays and the 21.5-inch iMacs are shipping to Apple distribution hubs right now. They'll be available online and in Apple retail stores before November ends with the 27-inch still on track for December and hopefully it's not the end of December. It's expected the new iMacs will also be in short supply initially and Tim Cook warned analysts about it in Apple's last earnings call. Now, very early builds of OS 10.9 have been detected on multiple websites. And according to 9to5Mac, these early builds currently integrate Apple Siri. Mountain lion currently supports the dictation feature, but nothing resembling Siri. They also say Apple maps will be integrated into OS 10.9 and this map kit framework would potentially allow developers to embed map functionality into their apps for the Mac like they do on iOS apps. And since we're talking about maps on iOS, we told you about Nokia's new offering last week for their free hear maps. It's available now to download and you could check it out, but its current rating is at a lowly 2.5 stars and it requires you to create an account to add favorite destinations. Now, Facebook is also slowly rolling out their photo sync feature for iOS users that android users have enjoyed and now allows you to upload automatically all the pictures that you've taken on your iPhone to a private photo album on Facebook with 2 gigs of complimentary storage. And yes, those pictures are private by default. It's not officially available to everyone just yet, but keep your eyes open. Alright guys, let's get to the winners for our Incase iPad Mini case giveaway. Congrats go out to Taytay Davis, sweet name; Charles Altman whose son is a fan and Charles says he raps to iPhone 5 on it; Ellen Boulanger gets one because I said so; and Amy Maghera who writes in with so, what is up with this new iPad Mini? I mean, come on, I'm sure that you agree, but size does matter. Oh well, still gotta cover it. Amy, I'm really disappointed in you. My mom watches this show and you still get a case. And for those of you who didn't win, Incase is still hooking all of you up, the Apple Byters, with a 25% off discount code off everything at goincase.com. Just use the code, Apple Byte 25, and it's good through December 1st. We also got this e-mail from Peter [unk]. He writes in with people up here in Minnesota say we look alike. I think it's just because we're Asian. My coworkers kept changing my profile picture to a picture of you for the longest time. Perhaps this is what you would look like without facial hair and bleached hair. Peter, we look nothing alike. Actually, he looks a lot better like a lot. Jamie, really? Okay, but you know Peter, to prove this, I did a little something and this is what you would look like with facial hair and bleached spiked hair. Okay. I stand corrected. Maybe we actually do look alike. Alright guys, that's gonna do it for this week's show. I'm Brian Tong. E-mail us at the firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll have a killer promo next week for you. Thanks for watching and start enjoying the holidays with your family, friends, loved ones. We'll catch you guys next time for another byte of the apple. Hey, Jamie, Jamie, where you going? What-- -What? -Jamie-- -What? -What the-- -What are you doing here? -Oh, I thought-- -You thought I was who? Idiot! -What?! Well, you guys look like you're dressed-- -Look nothing alike. -Okay.

Open Thread: Friends and Family and Everyone Else
Here's a place to talk about the relationships in your life whenever you want.
You wouldn't know this if you met me, but I am in a Committed, Long-Term Relationship. Yes, folks, despite my binge-drinkin', hard-partyin', wayward ways, I am happily settled in what can only be described as domesticity personified.
We met on Halloween in 2001, and it was love at first drunken sight. I wooed her with my bottle of vanilla vodka cleverly disguised as a paper bag, she wooed me with her jaunty gangster do-rag and ability to put cigarettes out on her tongue. In the years to follow, we bonded over copious quantities of cheap malt liquor, gave each other ill-advised and booze-fueled haircuts, and were responsible for shutting down several parties along the I-5 corridor. Clearly, it was love.
Fast-forward about 10 years and we have matching bedside furnishings, spend weekends refinishing dining sets, and own a modest home together. She gardens, I bake. I drink, she drives. I write, she gets paid. She does my taxes, I update her Facebook status. We're a team. We're settled. We have cats. It's all very cozy and suburban, without the actual suburbs.
And yet.
And yet.
I cannot. Will not. Bring myself to call her my "partner."
A decade of loving, fighting, fucking and living together, and for some reason neither one of us can wrap our tongues around those two syllables. When we go out together and meet new people, I often find myself saying, simply, "And this is Lisa. We live together." Or, "That girl over there? Yeah, she's my special ladyfriend." When that nets me weird looks, I explain further by elongating the vowels a la Jeff Bridges as The Dude: "You know, my special laaaaaaaaadyfriend." Well that settles that.
On one of our more recent outings, a new friend responded, "Oh. You mean she's your partner?"
"No," I responded. "She's my special ladyfriend."
"Your partner."
"Well, yeah, but no. She's my special laaaaaaaaadyfriend!"
Don't these people get it?!? Partners are … middle-aged. Second-wave feminist dykes who wear tool belts and mom jeans and fanny packs and have permed mullets and make their own flavorless soymilk from scratch. We, we are not those lesbians. No, no, freewheeling, fancy- and label-free. We are most definitely not partners.
We do not build sweat lodge slash yoga studio slash art galleries in the New Mexico dessert. We do not spend our days ambling around airy lofts in paint-splattered coveralls giving each other quick pecks on the cheek before rushing off to the rainbow babies playgroup organized by the local Montessori school.
And yet. Our relationship lacks a label. And without a label, people outside our relationship are apt to get confused, with sometimes amusing, sometimes awkward, results. Explanations elude us during social gatherings and at work. People think we're single (we're not). People think we're swingers (we're not). People think our straight roommate ("she lives with us, too") is romantically entangled in our crazy lezzie web (she isn't).
I've played with other terms for us. "Girlfriend" just doesn't do her justice. We're not 15. We're not "girlfriends." "Wife" is creepy and inaccurate, and "spouse" is just ridiculous. "Bedfellow" has potential, but wouldn't work in mixed company. "Wifey" makes me vomit. "Significant other" is so 90s. So tongue-in-cheek. "Partner," despite its dowdy implications, remains closest to the mark.
We do in fact make budget spreadsheets and weekly meal plans together. If that's not partnership, I don't know what is. But "partner" is so… clinical. So 70s. So PC-hetero. So college professor, so tweed jacket and leather elbow pad.
Urban dictionary offers this unhelpful guidance on the word, as used by people in heterosexual relationships:
• 'Partners' live in "spaces", not apartments, homes, houses, pads or places.
•'Partners' sleep and fuck on futons or dirty mattresses on the floor, as opposed to beds.
• 'Partners' generally subsist on 'ethical' or sustainable diets of organic vegetables, free-range meat and fair-trade coffee.
And therein lies another problem with the word "partner." It's been adopted by the straights. In between thrift-store shopping, baby-wearing, and trips to the farmer's market, heteros have co-opted the choicer elements of queer culture. This includes short haircuts, practical shoes, tight pants, flannel shirts and using the word "partner" to describe their heterosexually privileged, state- and church-sanctioned relationships. They get all the fun of being alterna with none of the consequences.
Not that I'm bitter about it. Ahem.
For now, we mostly get away with skirting the issue of labels. We're still young enough that assumptions of singlehood don't lead to automatic pity, and "alternative arrangements" don't raise eyebrows. As we get older and more entrenched in our respective careers, which come with progressively more conservative dress codes and peer groups that unilaterally display giant diamond wedding-themed jewelry, things are bound to get more awkward.
We may have to start using the word "partner." But until then, I'd like you to meet my special laaaaaaaadyfriend. We live together.

A sincere and huge THANK YOU! to all who helped make our April 23rd, 2016 Saturday's Service project a resounding success.
The rain held off and the Sun stuck its head out during our time at Sandy Beach. There were a total of 29 Volunteers who participated, donating a combined 83 hours and 55 minutes to cleaning up our assigned shoreline! We filled 41 trash bags, which we took to the transfer station in one-and-a-half truckloads in addition to a car bumper, various won't-fit-in-a-trashbag items, and three car tires. The top three items cleaned up would be 1) nails, 2) empty shotgun shells, and 3) beer containers (some of which were still unopened when they were found ((and remained that way!)) ).
As you can see from these photos, we accomplished a lot and all our Volunteers enjoyed themselves as we did our day-after-Earth Day Service.
It was a little bit cloudy when we first started…
Another load of trash headed our way
A happy crew of Volunteers and part of our trash trove.
Our first load of trash ready for the transfer station. Note that there was more trash we loaded up later down the beach, but this was all that would fit in the first pickup load. :o)
We express our great appreciation for all those who helped make this such an unquestionably successful Service project. See you Saturday August 13th for our Utah Lake Sandy Beach Cleanup, Summer edition!

I've recently been playing Magic: The Gathering on XBox 360 with my friends Kevin and Roody. I have deliberately steered clear of the Magic line of card games for years. Both being a completionist and having an addictive personality, I feared that Magic would be a quick way to dispose of large amounts of both money and time. Magic is a card game where opponents face off using decks of cards. The cards in there hands represent creatures, spells, and magic items that can be used to do battle. The danger of the traditional Magic card games is that you are able to purchase new cards to augment your deck, thereby giving you stronger cards to use in battle. Strong players will spend significant time and money to create the perfect deck.
The XBox arcade versions of the game mitigates those risks by limiting the decks and cards that are available. This has two appealing effects; you won't meet players who have spent thousands of dollars creating the perfect deck, nor will you be tempted to also spend thousands of dollars in order to compete with them.
Kevin, Roody, and myself have been meeting online on Sunday afternoon to play together for a few hours in a game mode that pits the three of us against an arch-enemy; a computer controlled player with bonuses that make him or her extra tough to beat. It's a nice way to shoot the breeze and have some fun.

The final papers are signed, the keys are yours, you are a proud new owner of a home. This is just the first step in a wonderful journey. To make sure that your new home is long enjoyed for many years to come, it is important to have a regular maintenance plan in place, including phoenix roof repair. Arizona is a beautiful place to live, however in this climate there are certain things that need to be taken care of, to make sure that your home is prepared to withstand the elements. When we think of the word maintenance we think work, however with modern technology it is easier than ever. Even with all the maintenance problems can happen, making sure that you have plans in place will help to save money as well as stress. Being a new home owner is a wonderful investment in your future, and by taking a few steps you can easily protect it.
There are many parts of your home that needs regular maintenance to be as efficient and safe as possible. Not all maintenance needs to be done at the same time, so taking the time to create a yearly maintenance calendar for your home will help to keep dates clear. Another benefit to creating a calendar will be that you can schedule a professional ahead of time, and get the one that you want. Owning a new home means that you have a monthly budget in place, by spreading out the yearly maintenance, you will also be spreading out the cost of the maintenance. The reasons for creating a yearly maintenance calendar and checklist go on and on, but the best reason is make sure your home is taken care of.
There are so many aspects of a new home, and trying to figure out what needs maintenance and when, no longer needs to be confusing with the use of technology. Thanks to smart phones and all of the home maintenance apps that are available, it is super easy. These apps offer great features including: maintenance tips, how to instructions, schedules, reminders, checklists of regular home maintenance concerns, and lots more. These apps make home maintenance easy for everyone to understand and manage.
Arizona has a very unique climate that homeowners need to keep in mind, when preparing their home for the changing seasons. Summers in Arizona are nice and hot, in fact very hot. Before summer having the entire air conditioning unit get a good check-up is very important. During these triple digit temperatures, wildfires are a possibility. Keeping the brush and trees trimmed and well away from your home is a simple and great way to protect your home. Arizona is also known for our monsoon season; this is when severe thunderstorms can occur.
These storms can bring strong winds, heavy rains, and in some areas flash flooding. Before the start of monsoon season, the gutters and downspouts on your home should be checked over and cleaned. Keeping a supply of emergency items, to use in the event of a flood, should be on your list if your home is in an area that could experience a flash flood. These emergency items should include materials for a quick home repair. Before the start of winter, the heating system should get a cleaning and workup, any chimneys should also be cleaned out before use. Making sure that your home is properly prepared, before each season is an important part of home maintenance.

'Reign' Season 1 Spoilers: Who Died In Episode 22? New Threat Strikes Castle [Season Finale Recap]
Season 1 of The CW's hit new series "Reign" came to a close on May 15 – ending with a major death.
Episode 22, "Slaughter of Innocence," kicked off with the King summoning everyone in the castle to the courtyard. Desperate to find the person who tried to murder him, King Henry's ready to go on a killing spree. However his ghost brother stops him.
"Not now," he tells the King. "Give them time, God likes that best."
With the order to give them time to confess, King Henry lowers his sword. However to prove his point he kills an innocent bystander. And unfortunately for King Henry, that seals his fate. Francis finally realizes that his father is lost, and begins hatching a plan with Mary and Queen Catherine to remove him from the throne.
But what is the plan? Francis doesn't want to kill him. Instead he wants to plan a coup that will remove him from the throne. However, a coup is risky, and Francis must first beg Henry's former generals to join him.
And that's not the only plan being put in place. King Henry's plotting his son's death by staging his meal to be riddled with spikes to appear as if he choked to death. Death isn't the only thing on his mind though – he's also planning his wedding to Mary.
Meanwhile Leaith returns to court to show Greer his new lands. But before he can get to his lady love he comes to the rescue of a girl being harassed by one of the King's guards. The girl asks for him to stay and have a drink with her, but Leith leaves, telling her that he's looking for someone.
Arriving at Greer's room, he shows his beloved his new land. Explaining that he's now a hero and a friend of Francis, Leith asks for her hand in marriage. But Greer tells him that she's engaged to Lord Castleroy and that nothing has changed.
Leith doesn't understand, leading Greer to brutally tell him that he's only a "comfortable" man now. She can't marry him because he still doesn't have enough money to pay off her father's debts, and she can't risk her sisters being sold.
Leith begs her to stop piling all her family problems on her back and to trust love and him. However Greer doesn't budge. With tears in her eyes she says goodbye to her first love.
Meanwhile Francis is attempting to leave the castle to meet with the generals when Henry stops him. The king requests Mary's attendance at an event honoring the return of the soldiers, and makes Francis promise to return for the feast.
Mary can't refuse the King's offer and heads to the shoreline to watch the ships shoot fireworks. But crazy Henry decided to switch out the fireworks with gunfire. While things initially go off without a hitch, the gunfire causes an explosion on one of the ships – killing a handful of soldiers.
Everyone is horrified by the explosion … except Henry. Wanting to put on a display for Mary (who he sneakily felt up during the occasion), the king demands that they do the fireworks display again tomorrow.
Marys' confused and frightened by King Henry. And her fear only grows when she and Catherine figure out that Henry's plan is to kill Francis, marry her, impregnate her and take all three crowns for himself. With time running out, Mary enlists the help of her Uncle, the Duke. However he tells her that in order to have a coup they must have a leader at hand. Mary tells him they have Francis, but the Duke says that she needs to lead and become the most powerful person in France.
Francis is out of the castle when all this happens, but he quickly discovers King Henry's latest mess. Appalled of his father's actions and the 3,000 men leaving for England the following day, Francis returns to the castle with a plan.
As Mary, Queen Catherine and Francis deal with King Henry, Bash and Nostradamus are searching for the Darkness. Finding bodies in an abandoned town, drawings on the wall reveal a chilling future – and that Kenna is in danger.
Kenna's at her estate with Pascal when a cloaked man claiming to be the Darkness bursts into their home. Wielding a blade, the man demands Kenna hand over the boy and sacrifice herself.
"Pascal, offer her blood to the gods," the Darkness yells through a door that Kenna barricaded herself and Pascal behind. "Appease their hunger before it grows."
But Bash returns before anything can happen to Kenna and Pascal. With the help of Nostradamus they wound the Darkness. But before he dies the Darkness begs Bash to let Pascal succeed him … or the black death will come.
What does that mean? The plague is coming! The Darkness warns Bash that if the Gods do not get their blood sacrifice that people will die. However Bash doesn't believe him. "No more children, no more sacrifices," Bash tells him. That's not good enough for the Darkness though. Attempting to kill Bash one last time, he's forced to brutally stab the Darkness in the head.
As Bash and Kenna have a happy reunion, Mary's watching a joust set up by King Henry for her amusement. However Mary arrives wearing the English coat of arms, leading Henry to become jealous of the attention surrounding her. Wanting the spotlight, Henry announces that he's going to joust Lord Montgomery. And while it's custom for the knight to let his "boss" win, Lord Montgomery doesn't do that. A blow from Lord Montgomery gravely injures the king, leaving a piece of wood sticking out of his eye.
Everyone rushes to the king's aid and Lord Montgomery slips away. However when he takes off his helmet away from prying eyes it's revealed that Lord Montgomery is actually Francis. With France at stake, Francis knocked Lord Montgomery out and took his place in order to eliminate his father.
A surprise betrayal from Francis, it appears as if Greer is going to betray Lord Castleroy. Upon finding out that Leith survived the explosion; Greer brings him back to her room for a steamy hookup. But unfortunately for Leith, a hookup doesn't mean that Greer changed her mind.
"Nothing's changed," she tells him. "Except I felt the pain of your loss more deeply than I ever would."
Leith argues for her to follow her heart, and when she refuses he brutally ends things with her for good. Telling her that he will continue to rise and become more rich and powerful, Leith warns her that he will never be hers again. And he's ready to move on. Approaching the girl he aided earlier, he asks to have a drink with her. However the girl tells him at another time because she already has plans. When she leaves her plans are revealed to be with Lord Castleroy – her father.
As Greer mourns her lost love, Queen Catherine and Francis are saying their goodbyes to King Henry. With death approaching, Henry's kindness returns. He begs Catherine to show kindness to Diane and to reach out and befriend her. Catherine agrees and leaves Henry alone to speak with his son.
Henry reveals to Francis that he was named after his older brother – the ghost that has been haunting him. The King confesses that he thought his brother was weak and that he would be a better King – so he poisoned him.
"Betraying someone you love, it blackens your soul," Henry tells Francis. "It's a weight you carry all of your days."
And it's a weight that is already having an affect on Francis. But King Henry finally finds peace with his brother before passing away.
With this new knowledge, Francis embraces Bash, seemingly putting their differences aside for good. But trouble is on the horizon.
Lola is in labor and stuck outside of the castle at a random house in a village. With her life and the baby's life at risk, Lola writes a letter to Mary. In the letter Lola begs Mary to no longer keep their secret and to care for the baby as if it were her own … with Francis.
Mary gets the letter and decides to come clean to Francis about Lola's pregnancy. "You should go," she tells her husband. "Because you're the father of her child. Because I wanted to tell you for months. Because Lola wants to tell you too."
Shocked by the news, Francis heads off and Mary promises to follow after getting help. But when Mary goes to Nostradamus and Queen Catherine she's told that no one can leave the castle. Why? Just like the Darkness predicted – the plague.
Realizing that Francis is leaving, Mary rushes after him and tells him that he can't leave. With the lives of everyone at the castle at risk, Mary warns him that he can't go. However Francis doesn't care, telling her that her friend and his child, perhaps his only child, is out there. Begging Mary to listen to her heart, Francis heads off – and Mary lowers the gates.
