The Adler plant prepared bikes, typewriters, and cruisers notwithstanding autos. When World War I, the organization utilized De Dion two- and four-barrel motors in autos that went from 1032 cc to 9081 cc; starting in 1902 (the year Edmund Rumpler got specialized chief), they utilized their motors too. These autos, determined by Erwin Kleyer and Otto Kleyer (children of the organization author Heinrich Kleyer) and by Alfred Theves won numerous wearing occasions. In the 1920s, Karl Irion dashed numerous Adlers; prominent models of the period incorporated the 2298 cc, 1550 cc, and 4700 cc four-chambers and the 2580 cc six-barrels. A couple of the Standard models, constructed between 1927 and 1934, emphasized Gropius outlined coachwork. The Adler Standard 6, which entered volume preparation in 1927, had a 2540 cc or 2916 cc six-barrel motor, while the Adler Standard 8 which seemed a year later utilize a 3887 cc eight-chamber motor. The Standard 6, first seen out in the open at the Berlin Motor Show in October 1926 was the first European auto to utilize water powered brakes, when it was fitted with an ATE-Lockheed framework. 1927 to 1929 Clärenore Stinnes was the first to circumnavigate the planet via auto, in an Adler Standard 6.
In December 1930, Adler allocated the German engineer Josef Ganz, who was additionally proofreader in-head of Motor-Kritik magazine, as an advisor engineer. In the first months of 1931, Ganz built a lightweight Volkswagen model at Adler with a tubular frame, a mid-mounted motor, and free wheel suspension with swing-axles at the back. After finish in May 1931, Ganz nicknamed his new model Maikäfer (May Beetle). After a movement in administration at Adler, further advancement of the Maikäfer was halted as the organization's new specialized chief Hans Gustav Röhr focused on front-wheel driven autos.
In the 1930s, the organization presented front-wheel drive Trumpf and Trumpf-Junior models, extending from 995 cc to 1645 cc four-barrel sv motors. These picked up numerous victories in races, incorporating in the Le Mans race. The 1943 cc Favorit, the 2916 cc six-chamber Diplomat (offering 65 hp (48 kw) at 3800 rpm, and the 1910 cc four-barrel and 2494 cc six-chamber models (with Ambi-Budd and Karmann bodywork) were all back determined; these were assembled until World War II. The last new auto presented by Adler was the 2.5 Liter of 1937; it had a six-barrel motor handling 58 hp (43 kw). On account of a streamlined figure outlined by Paul Jaray, this auto could run at 125 km/h (78 mph).
After World War II, a choice was made to not continue vehicles development. Bike handling continued in 1949 and proceeded for 8 years, expediting the generation of the MB 250s. As a feature of the Allies war reparations, Adler bike plans had been taken by BSA in Britain and later utilized by the British organization Ariel to transform their "Arrow" and "Leader" models. Progressively, Adler kept tabs on the assembling of office supplies. The organization connected with Triumph to structure Trumpf-Adler, and was assumed control by Grundig in 1957, then later by Olivetti.

I want to hear what books you have on your nightstand. Send me a photo and tell me a little bit about what you are reading now!
To submit your story, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Ashley Warlick, The Arrangement
I'm the buyer for M. Judson, and so I'm always wrestling with a stack of galleys. Right now, I'm reading something lent to me by one of my bookstore partners that somehow I missed, Brady Udall's novel The Lonely Polygamist, about a Mormon fundamentalist with four wives who somehow finds the time to an affair in the midst of his midlife crisis. It's the sort of book you read passages of aloud: funny, tender, smart, and big. Sweeping. It's given me a newfound appreciation for books that reach for all corners.
Mary Alice Monroe, A Lowcountry Wedding
The book on my nightstand currently is The Water is Wide by Pat Conroy. I read that long ago but Pat said that that was the book he was the most proud of and I began reading it again after his death. I understand why he made such a strong statement. The reader shares his journey out to Daufuskie Island with his students and can witness through his words his discovery of his passion for the Lowcountry landscape, for equality of races and for education. A wonderful book.

Lindsay Starck, Noah's Wife
Some of the best books I've read in the past year are Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan Novels, which I know that lots of people are talking about– for good reason! They're excellent. Currently I'm reading Naguib Mahfouz's Palace Walk, which I picked up in preparation for a trip to Egypt. It is so rich in detail and setting that I can only read a little bit at a time… as a friend of mine pointed out, it's somewhat like nibbling on a decadent sweet.
Peter Selgin, The Inventors
Selgin is an award winning author and professor of creative writing at Georgia College. He spoke with me about his memoir "The Inventors" for a story in the City Paper. He was kind enough to answer my question about books on his nightstand and has in fact covered this topic before in the essay UNCLASSIFIABLES: A TOUR OF BOOKS ON MY BED STAND in the Kenyon Review.
1. Dangling Man, by Saul Bellow. This is one of those books I return to constantly; in fact, if it's not on my bed stand, it's never that far away. The epistolary novel's existential plot appeals to me. World War II; Chicago. Joseph, a young man, awaits induction. Meanwhile, he's unemployed and unemployable—"dangling." But what appeals to me most is the beauty of Bellow's prose, and especially the power of his descriptions. "And the houses, their doors and windows open, drawing in the freshness, were like old drunkards or consumptives taking the cure."
2. In Dreams Begin Responsibilities, by Delmore Schwartz. Another book I return to habitually. Schwartz' stories, written when he was still very much a young man (he never lived to write as an older one) are charged with a young man's earnest yearning. The title story reaches the same surreal heights as Kafka's best works: not the sterile clever surreality of so much contemporary work, but surreality charged with urgent emotion.
3. Adventures in Immediate Irreality, by Max Blecher (English trans. by Michael Henry Heim). Published recently for the first time in English by New Directions, Blecher's hyper-realist masterpiece accomplishes in a just over 100 pages what took Proust seven volumes. That's an exaggeration, but Blecher reaches the same level of intensity. More amazing still: he wrote his masterpiece in his twenties while dying of tuberculosis of the spine.
4. Cain's Book, by Alexander Trocchi, a novel in the form of the journal of a heroin junkie living on a gravel scow in New York harbor. First embraced (along with Burrough's Junkie) by the sixties counterculture, the book's lasting value, for me, owes less to its anarchic message than to the magnificence of Trocchi's prose. Trocchi's description of a storm at sea is as good as anything in Conrad or Patrick O'Brien, and his portrait of an ineffectual father is both moving an poignant.
5. The Man Who Went Up in Smoke, by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö: a police-procedural / crime mystery novel co-authored in the sixties by the Swedish couple (who wrote books separately as well). Very-well done. Substantial depth of character achieved by way of no-nonsense prose. Better—or at least as good as—Simenon.
The common theme here, I guess, if there is one, is intensity: I like intense books, books imbued with the souls of their authors, who, with every sentence, put themselves on the line.

Unless you were hanging out in Green Bay, Wisconsin basements in the early naughts you probably haven't heard much of the band from that time. On one of the early demo's the band passed out I believe some Lee stuff is on it. Perhaps if Bancroft ever put's out the much talked about MG's band approved bootleg anthology LP they'll see the day. They were a much different band then majoring in Radio Birdman & Stooges covers. They were young and stupid. Now, more than a few years later Lee's in Madison and has got this thing going on. Somewhat older but still doing stupid rock-n-roll...which, of course is what a lot of my favorite rock-n-roll is. Think about it-can you imagine a world where all "rock music" was smart?!?! Nothing but bands like Rush & Tool? Uck! No thanks. Stompin' spiders in hard sole shoes and causing all kinds of public disturbances the Gut Reactions are dirt-fi for trash hounds who lament that old Rip Off records sound and are looking for something hair triggered and...you guessed it...stupid.

December 29, 2016 09:00 ET
VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - December 29, 2016) - Intrinsyc Technologies Corporation (TSX: ITC) (OTC: ISYRF) ("Intrinsyc"), a leading provider of solutions for the development of embedded and IoT devices and Stream TV Networks, Inc. ("Stream TV"), a Philadelphia-based new media company (privately held and incorporated in Delaware) (the "Companies"), today announced they will continue their strategic relationship. The Companies signed amendment to extend the maturity date of the existing $1.5 million secured promissory note (the "Note") from December 30, 2016, to March 30, 2017. In consideration for the extension Intrinsyc will receive 30,000 warrants convertible into Class A common shares in Stream TV Networks, Inc. on a 1 for 1 basis for a period of up to 5 years.
Previous agreements between the Companies provided for a purchase commitment by Stream TV of a minimum of USD $6.0 million, with products, services, or royalties to be purchased or to be generated on or before December 30, 2016. Stream TV has exceeded this obligation. During the 90 day extension period, the two Companies expect to discuss Intrinsyc's ongoing strategic role providing engineering services to support commercialization opportunities for Ultra-D™ technology in the digital signage market, as well the planned expansion to consumer applications such as smart televisions and various mobile devices.
"Intrinsyc will continue our collaborative relationship with Stream TV as we assist in the development and commercialization of their breakthrough Ultra-D™, 4K Glasses-Free 3D technology," said Tracy Rees, Chief Executive Officer of Intrinsyc Technologies Corporation. "Stream TV is gaining traction in the digital signage market and is planning to expand into broader consumer market segments in 2017. The Note extension period provides additional time for Stream TV to finalize their capital funding program, which is currently underway."
Stream TV is the developer of Ultra-D™ technology, a proprietary hardware and software solution that allows users to watch all of their content in fully adjustable 4K Glasses-Free 3D. Ultra-D™ solves the two biggest limitations of 3D technology -- the need to wear special glasses and the scarcity of 3D content. With Ultra-D™ users can watch virtually anything they wish on their television or tablet computer in 3D, without glasses due to a real-time video conversion function. Additionally, users can control the amount of 3D effect as easily as turning audio volume up or down with a remote control. The Ultra-D™ technology viewing experience has the potential to transform the market for consumer video devices starting with televisions and then migrating to tablets, PC monitors and other devices in a manner that could be as transformative as the evolution from black and white TVs to color units. Stream TV's goal is to make Ultra-D™ the ubiquitous standard for watching all video media at some comfortable level of 3D, which is decided by the end user.

Building a Bridge from the Prairies to Peru
In case you haven't heard, we've added a new spot on the map to UM Travel/Study programming. Now, students can explore Peru while enriching their perspectives in Education and Indigenous culture.
Sometimes, to understand our own culture, we need to explore another. Peru is full of culture and experiences to inspire new knowledge and understandings for our students.
They travel by planes, trains and automobiles to visit Lima, Cusco and Puno including the Floating Island communities of Uros and Taquile of Lake Titicaca.
This program, led by Dr. Laara Fitznor, Faculty of Education, gives students first hand opportunity to observe and learn about the past and present realities of Indigenous history and how it has informed the identities of Peruvian people with Indigenous heritage today.
Students immerse themselves in historical and present Peruvian Indigenous culture through observations and engagement within the communities. Local partners mentor and guide the group through the communities and act as their eyes, ears, and voices. Leaders and scholars teach students about the experiences and artefacts of ancestors. Students also have opportunities to participate in traditional ceremonies.
Through these experiences and learning about the ongoing themes and issues that challenge traditional knowledge, students can draw the parallel between the way Indigenous people have been affected in Peru versus in Canada and gain a new understanding of the gradual erasure of Indigenous heritage and how it has affected our culture.
As part of the program, students are required to engage with readings, story work, and review literature that addresses Indigenous knowledge and perspectives on Indigenous repatriation, language renewal, cultural reclaiming, culturally relevant teaching and research. They also participate in field visits with local people to archaeological sites and communities.
Along with unforgettable memories, this program will send students home with an enhanced understanding of historical to present Indigenous-Modern relationships.

Americans love credit cards. They are a convenient way to shop and allow you to make purchases you may not be able to make if you were using a debit card or cash-only. However, there is a catch. If you go over your credit limit or miss a payment, your interest rates could increase to over 20% with a national card issuer. Although the average credit card debt declined 11% to around $6,576 in 2011 (CreditKarma.com), consumer debt remains costly.
According to the Federal Reserve, the average credit card rate decreased since 2007 to the end of the first quarter 2012, to 12.34%, a drop of 0.96%. This would mean that using credit cards has become cheaper overall. But not everyone agrees. "Consider this in the context of other rate declines over the same period: 48-month car loan rates dropped by 2.7% over the same period. 30-year mortgage rates dropped by 2.75%. Relative to the broader interest rate trend, credit card rates have not come down nearly as much," says Bankrate's Richard Barrington (July 2012). Adjust for inflation and credit card rates are still high.
So, although the Credit Card Accountability Act signed in 2009 is supposed to protect consumers from rate hikes and confusing disclosures, chances are you are not getting the best deal on a credit card from a national issuer. What can you do to make sure you are getting the best interest rates and favorable fees on your credit card?
If you are unhappy with your credit card's current rate, or the credit card issuer's service and fees, consider shopping around and switching to a better card. Be proactive in comparing credit cards, making sure you understand their fees. In looking at terms and conditions; in most cases you'll find credit union credit cards are cheaper and the most consumer-friendly.
"We generally recommend consumers look at credit unions first," says Travis Plunkett, Director of the Federal legislative and regulatory efforts for the Consumer Federation of America. "Look at their terms and conditions; in most cases you'll find they're cheaper and the most consumer-friendly."
According to recent comparison chart from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the average credit union credit card rate remains lower than the average rate of all national banks. That is 11.65% vs. 13.69%. The numbers speak for themselves.
If you're not sure about your credit card fees and penalties, ask your card issuer. The terms may have changed since you opened the account, and you may not have seen the notification, which generally accompanies your account statement. You should know:
If you're not satisfied with the answers, maybe it's time to shop for a better card. And be sure to ask these questions up front.
Doing your homework before switching or getting a new credit card will save you money. You may find that the best rates and options are close by at your local credit union.

The cinema of the United States, often generally referred to as Hollywood, has had a profound effect on cinema across the world since the early 20th century. The major film studios of Hollywood, a suburb of Los Angeles, are the primary source of the most commercially successful movies in the world, such as The Birth of a Nation (1915), Gone with the Wind (1939), The Sound of Music (1965), E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982), Titanic (1997), Avatar (2009), and the like.
Classical Hollywood Cinema is defined as a technical and narrative style characteristic of film from 1917 to 1960. It stuck to all the characteristics of a film genre. Most Hollywood pictures closely abided by a formula – Western, splastick comedy, musical, animated cartoon, biographical film – and the same creative teams often worked on films made by the same studio.
Post-classical cinema is the term used to describe the changing methods of storytelling in the New Hollywood. New approaches to drama and characterisation played upon audience expectations acquired in the classical period: chronology is often scrambled, storylines might feature "twist endings, " and the contrast between the antagonist and protagonist is sometimes blurred. The roots of post-classical storytelling may be seen in film noir, in Rebel Without a Cause (1955), and in Hitchcock's plot-shattering Psycho (1960).
In the 1970s, the films of New Hollywood filmmakers were often both critically acclaimed and commercially successful. While the early New Hollywood films like Bonnie and Clyde (1967) and Easy Rider (1969) had been relatively low-budget affairs with amoral heroes and increased sexuality and violence, the enormous success enjoyed by William Friedkin with The Exorcist (1973), Steven Spielberg with Jaws (1975), Francis Ford Coppola with The Godfather (1972 - ) and Apocalypse Now (1979), Martin Scorsese with Taxi Driver (1976), Stanley Kubrick with 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), Roman Polanski with Chinatown (1974), and George Lucas with American Graffiti (1973) and Star Wars (1977 - ), gave rise to the modern "blockbuster, " and induced studios to focus ever more heavily on trying to produce enormous hits.
Starting with the 1980s, the studios have been driven mainly by financial motives, producing, for example, sequels that have precipitously declined in quality, and Hollywood, apart from a few surprises, has been on a steady decline ever since. Subsequently, directorship gradually ceased being equated with authorship. An excellent illustration of the internal dynamics of a Hollywood studio can be observed in the movie The Player (1992) starring Tim Robbins. This orientation on profit has led to a sharp division between Hollywood and the independent American cinema, promulgated in the Sundance Film Festival, and represented by such directors as John Cassavetes, Jim Jarmusch and Spike Lee.
Some of the most influential Hollywood actors, directors and movies are described in the following few paragraphs:
Charlie Chaplin is an iconic figure of the silent-film comedy. His most famous movies, like The Gold Rush (1925), Modern Times (1931) and The Great Dictator (1940) are still considered classics.
Steamboat Willy (1928) marks the first appearance of Walt Disney's most celebrated character, Mickey Mouse, in an animated short. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) is Disney's first feature-length animated film, and one of the greatest blockbusters in Hollywood's history.
There were two huge hits in 1939, Gone With the Wind, a four-hour epic-historic romantic drama, and The Wizard of Oz, a musical comedy-fantasy classic.
Orson Wells's Citizen Kane (1941) has often been called the best American film ever made, mainly because of its cinematographic innovations.
Casablanca (1942) is a romantic drama featuring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. The last scene in the movie featured in numerous subsequent romantic films.
Singing in the Rain (1952) with Gene Kelly is probably still the best known Hollywood musical.
No one knows if James Dean would have become such a teenage hero if he hadn't died young, but the three movies he made, especially Rebel Without a Cause (1955), are now considered Hollywood classics.
Alfred Hitchcock pioneered the genres of suspense and psychological thrillers. Some of his most famous movies include Vertigo (1958), West By Northwest (1959) and Psycho (1960).
Audrey Hepburn as Holly in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) is considered one of the most iconic figures of 20th-century American cinema.
Even though Stanley Kubrick has not made more than a dozen films in his lifetime, he is considered one of the most influential directors in movie history. His most famous films include: 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), A Clockwork Orange (1971), The Shining (1980) and Full Metal Jacket (1987).
The Godfather (1972 - ) has become not only the best known mafia film, but one of the most celebrated Hollywood movies ever made.
Blade Runner by Ridley Scott (1982) is considered one of the best science-fiction movies of all time. Its portrayal of Los Angeles in 2019 seems futuristic even today.
The 1990s have seen great improvements in visual effects. Jurassic Park (1993 - ) is responsible for a dinosaur craze that hasn't died out yet.
Quentin Tarantino's second feature film, Pulp Fiction (1994), is memorable for its ludicrous dialogue, ironic mix of humor and violence, nonlinear storyline and a host of cinematic allusions and pop culture references.
Toy Story (1995), the first Pixar studio megahit, marks a new revolution in animation.
A neo-noir sci-fi action film The Matrix (1999) is notable for its dystopian portrayal of virtual reality and clever allusions to philosophy, religion and literature.
Fight Club (1999), which became a classic only after its DVD release, is renowned for its innovative form and style.
The 21st century is marked by the screening of some of the best known children books like the classic The Lord of the Rings (2001 - ) and Marvel comic strips, like the Dark Knight (2008). Avatar (2009), a world-wide blockbuster, is notable for its visual effects and ecological themes.
Movie Wars: How Hollywood and the Media Limit What Films (2000) is a book by the famous film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum about how good movies are still made, but we don't have access to them.
Goodbye Cinema, Hello Cinephilia: Film Culture in Transition (2010) is a collection of movie reviews by the esteemed film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum.
The Player (1992) is a satirical black comedy by Robert Altman about the inside workings of Hollywood stars and executives.
Be Kind Rewind (2008) is a movie about two salesmen who inadvertently erase the footage from all of the tapes in their video rental store. In order to keep the business running, they re-shoot every film in the store with their own camera, with a budget of zero dollars.

Discipleship Pathway for Students
Discipleship Pathway for Students
Philippians 3:7-10
But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of KNOWING Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. I want to KNOW Christ—yes, to KNOW the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death.
Ephesians 4:11-16
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
Matthew 28:18-20
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Pictures with Words
Yes I have actually been crafting. Not a lot but a little. The hot weather keeps me tired together with working on the house. I have two more major organizational projects but one (the attic) will have to wait until winter and until I can get friends over here to help. Not something I can do alone. But anyway I've been making a few washcloths anyway. Yes, I do occasionally make something else. Remember the "hot hat" pattern? And I need to get started on holiday gifts which means maybe making a few scarves and hats. I have been crocheting a lot lately since it's faster but maybe for holiday gifts I can do some knit as well as some crochet.
The washcloth on the left is a really cute and easy pattern in crochet. I modified it slightly because I wanted the ends to be a bit different. I like the color pattern, too, but am now almost completely out of that HUGE ball of yarn. Time to start using another of the big ones.
The washcloth on the right is the pattern I am making for all my co-workers for their birthday. Favorite color for each. This is Vicky's for her birthday which is next week. She never specified a color (only one who didn't!) but she looks good in that color or purple and I'd already done 2 purple. I'll know tomorrow if she likes it because we're having a birthday luncheon for her early. She's on vacation the week of her birthday.
I had hoped to get back to felting but I think if I'm going to do anything beyond the simple things it will have to wait for winter.
Sadly I almost didn't do this post. After years of doing this blog I think I am getting tired. But I do it more as a journal of what I've worked on so *I* will remember as to post for others to read. So one post at a time, I guess.
That's me... on hooks and needles!

Cool Clean Curls
Some curly heads go to such extremes to control their frizzy hair that they totally avoid shampoo and never clean their hair with traditional shampoos. In a world without dust and pollution this concept can work as natural oils from the scalp certainly help tame wild frizzy hair. What I discovered was that not all shampoo has to be harsh cleansers. I was able to create the perfect blend of ingredients that gently cleans curly hair with a low Ph Balance of 4.5-5.5. These formulas allow curly hair to be cleansed without stripping away at natural essential oils. These formulas also make it possible to add ingredients that have the capability to repair the hair's elasticity lost during chemical services (Colouring, perming and relaxers).
Silk Shampoo and Treatment Shampoo are gentle enough to be used daily if required.

Something interesting is happening in the city of London. Many finance professionals are embracing mindfulness, which is a Buddhist tradition centered around meditation and self-reflection. The goal they are seeking is to be relieved of all the stress that comes not only from their day-in day-out work, but also technology, allowing them to have greater clarity by using meditation and breathing techniques.
In addition to this, big banks and accounting firms, such as KPMG and The Bank of England, are encouraging their employees to use the app Headspace, which is all about meditating and mindfulness. It is even believed that it will not be long before the concept of mindfulness is as important to our daily routine as physical exercise. Goldman Sachs invited its founder during its resilience week. So to be be happy and relax, you know now what to do: meditate.

HI Jacacia, What I see from your information is that you have Vhost for learnzf2.localhost. It means that you should open the following file as Admin user C://Windows//System32//Drivers//etc//hosts and in it append the following line:
127.0.0.1 learnzf2.localhost
And save the file. Once you are ready you should be able to type in your preferred browser the following URL:
and if the things are set as described in the book you should be able to see your first Zend Framework application.
Give it a try and tell me if it works for you.2015/08/06 at 1:42 am #804
Thank you so much for your prompt response. I really appreciate it!!
I could always see the homepage but have made the change you advised and now can see the homepage again at http://learnzf2.localhost
I am on page 23 of the book trying to see the about page
the about.phtml page that I want to see is in the same folder as the index.phtml page that shows up so readily at Site/module/Application/view/application/index/about.phtml
if I put into my url http://learnzf2.localhost/application/index/about
it gives me a 404 error The requested URL /application/index/about was not found on this server.
gives me a 404 error too.
Is that enough information for you to help me know the url of the about page?2015/08/06 at 10:54 am #805
Slavey KaradzhovParticipant
> if I put into my url http://learnzf2.localhost/application/index/about it gives me a 404 error The requested URL /application/index/about was not found on this server.
Are you getting a white page with a bit of text saying this error message, or a page, that has menus on the top and in the middle has that error message?
If you have the first case then most probably your apache server is not configured correctly and the .htaccess file is being ignored. Go to this directory: c:/wamp/bin/apache/Apache2.2.21/conf/ and open the httpd.conf file. There should be a directive saying
AllowOverride None
Change it to
AllowOverride All
Save the changes and restart apache.
If you have the second case then make sure that the apache rewrite module is enabled. Check if at least this is working for you: http://learnzf2.local/index.php/application/index/about
And finally if you think that these configurations are too complicated for you then you can create your own VirtualBox (See: http://learnzf2.com/isolated-development-environment-for-learn-zf2/) image and in it all configurations will be done automatically for you.

Red Dye Allergy Overview
Red 40 allergy or popularly known as Red Dye Allergy happens to both kids and adults, who are not capable of digesting this food coloring. Red dye is food coloring number 2 that is called cochineal extract or carmine. Another popular source of allergy to red dye is food coloring number 40 that can be found in food and medicine. This component is popularly utilized to preserve, prepare as well as place coloring for food.

What Causes an Allergy to Red Eye?
Even if commonly misinterpreted as allergy to food, red dye allergy is really intolerance to food. The augment of food with artificial ingredients and preservatives, also paved way for the augment of people with this kind of allergy. Kids are popularly affected due to the fact that they fancy eating sweets and snacks. While the red dye allergy symptoms could be cured, it is extremely hard to identify. The is explained by the fact that red dye allergy does not essentially show visible allergic responses.
The Symptoms of Red Dye Allergy
Skin Reactions
Like any other kinds of allergies, frequent skin symptoms could be attributed to this allergy. Redness, itchiness as well as slight inflammation of the skin are just some of red dye allergy symptoms. Appearance of rashes, hives, and thick bumps that has fluid is also skin red dye allergy signs. Angioedema is a further serious derma reaction due to red dye allergy. This is the inflammation of the deeper layer of your skin. This may seem like a raised welt on your skin surface. This could also be occurred in your eyelids, tongue and the part surrounding your face.
Gastrointestinal Issues
If you have allergic to a specific type of food, you'll have some kind of gastrointestinal issue. In this situation, red dye could lead to bloating, diarrhea or a gassy feeling. Usually it will begin as a stomach pain. Then it could result into a more severe digestive issue like vomiting as well as persistent excretions. If the food that contains red dye has been emitted, gastrointestinal stress also cease. This is the reason why a lot of people are coughing, wheezing or a whistling in their chest.
Flu and Respiratory Problems
Allergy to red dye could cause a specific portion of your respiratory system to inflame. It is hard to identify people with this allergy, as most of the signs exhibited are very common; flu and fever are a good example. Itchiness of eyes, throat, as well as nose and continuous sneezing are also due to red dye allergy. While these signs could be cured with antihistamines and antibiotics, the allergy could go unidentified for years.
Anaphylactic Shock
When this allergy is left uncured, could lead to becoming severe or serious. Anaphylactic shock is the most horrible phase of red dye allergy. Its early symptoms are respiratory signs along with swelling of the whole body. This swelling could make it hard for people suffering red dye allergy to swallow breathe. It is cured with the shot of epinephrine or adrenaline.
Other Red Dye Allergy Symptoms
- Faster pulse
- Considerable drop in blood pressure
- Fainting
- Dizziness
- Blocked airways
- Lack of appetite
- Joint pains
- Lack of sleep
- Loss of consciousness
- Poor concentration
- Hypersensitivity
- ADHD (common amongst children
Red Dye Allergy Diagnosis and Testing
With most food allergies, your medical specialist will provide a blood examination or skin prick examination to look for the source. Sad to say, there is no examination to identify food dye allergy. Therefore, you may need to pinpoint the allergen utilizing trial and error.
One alternative it to remember the whole thing you eat in a notebook and note if you have a reaction. And then, try to avoid those foods for a couple of days to know if the signs vanish or go away. Another alternative is to conduct a food challenge. During this method, your physician will provide a series of foods. Some foods will have red dye you think is causing your problem, however you will not know which food. Once you have a reaction, you will know you have found the offender.
How to Prevent Red Dye Allergy?
- Know more about red dye allergy
- Red dye could go with diverse names such as carminic acid, red, crimson lake, E 120, Natural Red 4, Red 40 and many others. It could even be identified as "undefined" coloring.
- Consulting your physician will aid you know more about this condition. This is essential, essentially if you have kids.
- Ask people you know who experienced this allergy. Information from people with direct experience of this case can aid you predict what might happen.
- Read Labels Always
- Think about the names of red dye stated above. Read carefully the food labels and cosmetic you like to purchase. If you are in a drug store, you can ask the pharmacist if the product you are about to purchase has red dye. Benadryl on the other hand is safe and doesn't contain red dye.
- Opt to Healthier Choices To Red Dye
- In case your kids show some signs of this allergy, it is best to introduce your kids to healthier options. Fruits, fresh meats as well as veggies do not contain red dye, so it is safe.
Best Red Dye Allergy Treatment or Cure
Red dye allergy cannot be treated totally. Because of this, prevention is the best thing to do. You need to keep away from foods and cosmetics which have red dye or carmine this will save you from the signs and stress of red dye allergy could cause.
Anti allergy drugs like Antihistamines work on dealing the signs of red dye allergy. And for stomach issues, it does not really need any drug. This digestive issue will stop the time the food is excreted. Skin issues could be cured utilizing ointments. People suffering from anaphylactic shock will be provided adrenaline and epinephrine.
Alternative cure include using herbal treatment, TCM or Traditional Chinese Medicine and homeopathy. You have to be careful when purchasing this kind of medicine though. A lot of them are not proven to be efficient.

Disclosure: I received a discounted ticket to the Food and Wine Conference in exchange for promoting the conference. As always, all opinions are my own.
Blogging is about so much more than writing or creating content. It is about engagement and community. It is about creating friendships and social connections that extend far beyond where you live. Blogging has enabled the world to shrink in such a way that most people never thought possible. Conferences dedicated to blogging allow the world shrink even more. New friendships become real when people meet for the very first time. Old friendships are renewed and reenergized when people reconnect after a year or more has passed by.
Be Authentic. Be Passionate. Be You.
A few weeks ago, I attended the third annual Food and Wine Conference. It also just happened to be my third year attending the conference. I was actually a little bit nervous and even considered not going to this year's conference. I haven't been nearly as active in the blogging community as I would like to be and I was concerned that I would be totally out of the loop. My fears were completely unwarranted though. When Pete and I arrived at the conference check in desk on Friday evening, it was like we had never left last year's conference. It absolutely amazed me at how comfortable I felt around people I hadn't seen or really talked to in a year.
The Food and Wine Conference took place over the course of a weekend at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort in Orlando. This resort is absolutely gorgeous and it is a wonderful place to host this conference. The rooms are luxurious. The beds are comfortable. The amenities are wonderful, including a spa, fitness center, and several pools. Plus there is a golf course for Pete to enjoy while I am attending the conference sessions. Did I mention that there are a myriad of dining options around the restaurant to satisfy any palette?
Stay committed to who you are. –Monica Bhide
On Friday evening, the conference started off with a welcome reception featuring delicious strawberry shortcake cocktails and a dinner that showcased the different dining options available at the resort. During those events, I found myself reconnecting with people that I haven't seen in a year and meeting new people that were first time conference attendees. I also tried some interesting foods that I probably wouldn't have tried otherwise. It was a delicious and fun way to start the conference.
Do what you do well and do it better.
Saturday was all about learning (and eating of course). The day started off early and didn't get finished until late. The sessions on Saturday were mostly about the behind the scenes of blogging. There were sessions on how to run a successful blogging business, ways to find balance in this crazy, hectic world, and how to form great relationships with brands. One thing that I really loved about all of the sessions is that the speakers didn't just tell about what they do now that they are successful. The speakers actually gave an action plan to get to where they are. My biggest issue with trying to move forward with my blog is that I don't always know what I need to start doing now that will help me later on down the road. I have been blogging for a little more than four years and I still feel like a newbie every single day. I feel like I should know what to do but I just haven't had the time to figure it all out for myself. Knowing what works for other people is a great place to start as I look forward to the future.
Be selective. Be loyal. Be positive. –Ann Tran
In between the sessions on Saturday, the conference sponsors provided some scrumptious treats. These treats were very welcome after sitting for several hours in the ballroom of the resort's convention center. By the end of the day, I was full and wasn't sure that I would have room for the special dinner planned.
When we woke up on Sunday morning, Pete and I were exhausted. My brain was so full from everything I had learned the day before. I was filled with a new sense of inspiration for blogging. My recipe ideas were absolutely flowing. I also felt relieved that I hadn't lost my love of writing, creating content, and engaging with others. The schedule for Sunday was a little bit different than Saturday. Rather than sitting together in the ballroom of the convention center and listening to speakers, we headed over to the USF Rosen College of Hospitality for a day full of workshops and cooking demos. I really loved that the workshops and cooking demos provided a different type of learning. We had the opportunity to see the speakers in action doing what they love and seeing how they do it. By the end of the day, I had a much better understanding of food photography and how to work with beef and potatoes.
Food is more than just fuel. It should be an experience.
At the end of the conference on Sunday afternoon, I couldn't believe how much I had learned over the course of the weekend. I spent the car ride home jotting down ideas and talking them over with Pete. I had a renewed sense of purpose for what I wanted out of my blog and I was inspired to start working towards my goals. The road will be long but it will be worth it. I can't wait for next year's Food and Wine Conference!

Curb Alert Link Party? Are you interested? I have been playing around with party ideas ... I love the Curb Alert! Dumpster Diving Team Member idea. Would you be willing to join the team and link up with me?
I have been contemplating whether or not I should jump in the link party arena. I already have an account with LinkyTools and have been using their services for my Project Gallery page, it's super easy (and fun!). I soooooo enjoy the link parties that I already attend each week and have met so many new blog friends in that area of blogland. In doing so it has given me the "itch" to start up one here on Curb Alert!
What a great way to meet up with even more blogs and crafty talented geniuses like yourselves!
What are you thoughts about it? Any ideas of how I should handle it? Should I limit it to Curb Finds only, Trash to Treasure or Thrifty Finds? I also love a good makeover on crafts and furniture so include those as well?! Uggghhh, the possibilities are endless and that is my dilemma. HELP! I would love to hear your ideas so PLEASE either leave a comment or send me your thoughts directly by email.

In 2008, I started trying to get my property tax waiver. (As a disabled person, I qualify for a waiver of the property tax.) I didn't get it then because the paperwork submitted didn't prove that I have a "total and permanent disability". I had submitted a Proof of Income letter, which is generally acceptable to prove that a person receives SSDI payments. Not for the Alabama Department of Revenue.
Well, today, I went to the Social Security Administration office in town. I waited for about an hour. I got my original 2005 award letter, which is the thing that was supposedly required for the waiver. (It was the one declaring me disabled and wasn't from the period from 1992 until 2002, when my mother received $100/month to help take care of me. The girl at the office was very specific about this.) After that hour, my father and I trekked to downtown and went to the office of the Tax Assessor for the county. I handed over my award letter. Person #1 had to call person #2. Person #2 and #1 went to #2's desk, where they debated and discussed why I was rejected the first time. They determined that they would come tell me that this new award letter was the same thing that I had given before and would not suffice. They also said that because it didn't say I had a total, permanent disability, it wouldn't be considered legitimate. The letter didn't say those specific words. It did mention, many times, the term "disabled". It also mentioned my case would be reviewed in 2007. (The other letter, which they still had a copy of, was from 2008, when I was still receiving benefits.) I eventually got to see the actual Tax Assessor, who said that they would send the old information with the new information and that it should work, but that the Department of Revenue might not approve it because of the terminology used in the letter. She said I might have to go and have 1-2 doctors declare me permanently disabled.
For the record, a permanent disability is generally one that will last at least 1 year and will typically end in death. That the general legal definition, at least. According to the SSA, the definition is:
"Disability" under Social Security is based on your inability to work. We consider you disabled under Social Security rules if:
- You cannot do work that you did before;
- We decide that you cannot adjust to other work because of your medical condition(s); and
- Your disability has lasted or is expected to last for at least one year or to result in death.
To qualify, I had to have an income below $1000, have a severe problem that would keep me from working, have a disorder from the list – aka the Blue Book (I had 6 at that time—8 now are on my file), have an inability to do work done previously or any other kind of work. I had to submit pretty much my entire medical history to the SSA. I also had to go to 2 different doctors, chosen by the SSA folks, and go through tests, exams, etc. I qualified and was approved after all of this was reviewed. Apparently, though, this may not be enough for the State of Alabama to agree that I am, in fact, disabled.
If the state does determine that I'm disabled, though, the Tax Assessor said that it would apply from the first time I applied for the waiver—so 3 years x about $400-$450 = good. I just am not counting on it. Things in life are never that easy.
Keep your fingers crossed, I guess.

Being able to drive your car to school, work, or wherever else you desire can give you a sense of freedom and control. Having diabetes doesn't necessarily mean that you're unable to drive independently. Many people with diabetes continue to drive safely.
If your diabetes isn't well-controlled, you may experience greater complications and risk. Experts have debated about whether a diabetes diagnosis, particularly if you're on medications that increase insulin levels, should be a factor in determining your eligibility for a driver's license. Although the American Diabetes Association says that people with diabetes can generally drive safely, some people feel that it poses an unnecessary risk.
People with diabetes generally pose no greater safety risk while driving than the average driver who doesn't have diabetes. Your ability to drive is generally affected if your diabetes is controlled by medications that lower blood sugar. This is primarily a concern for those who are on insulin and have a history of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar. If your blood sugar is too low, you may experience symptoms or it may trigger a related condition that can affect your ability to drive.
If you have low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, it can cause:
– confusion
– a loss of consciousness
– blurred vision
– shakiness
– dizziness
– fainting
– fatigue
– lightheadedness
Researchers in a study of 452 drivers with type 1 diabetes asked participants to self-report any episodes of hypoglycemia over the course of one year. They also asked them to report whether these episodes impacted their driving.
Plan Ahead to Avoid Blood Sugar Dips
Here's a basic outline of how to handle driving with diabetes:
– Test blood sugar. If you're at risk for hypoglycemia, "don't ever get in the car without checking your blood sugar," emphasizes Kranick. Your blood sugar should be around 150 mg/dL.
– Correct blood sugar. If your blood sugar is too low, do not get behind the wheel. Wait 15 minutes to check your blood sugar again after eating or drinking one of the following:
– 15 grams of a simple carbohydrate
– 4 glucose tabs
– 4 ounces of soda or fruit juice
– Plan ahead. Keep healthy snacks in the car for emergencies. Make sure you have enough supplies for testing and correcting blood sugar in case you're stuck away from home for longer than you planned.
– Check blood sugar regularly. If you're taking a long car trip, plan on checking your blood sugar every two to four hours. Make sure you have a stash of supplies to keep your blood sugar under control.
The bottom line
Each person's medical needs vary regardless of whether they have diabetes, and no two cases of diabetes are the same. Your doctor will assess your individual symptoms and make a recommendation that's appropriate for you.
If your doctor says it's OK for you to drive, you should be able to retain or apply for your license successfully. If your doctor finds that you may be unable to drive safely, you can discuss your other options for transportation with them. Depending on your situation, this may include having a friend or family member drive you around or using public transportation.

Focussing on what's new is important. Focussing on what has become short of appeal is also important. So that we don't confuse the overly done ideas with the effective ones. For a brand to be able to obtain a fresh image, it can't imitate being exciting. Then we might consider that conventional forms of digital marketing (like sending away SMS and emailer) aren't exciting. Of course, they aren't. They never claimed as well. In this genre, the job is done by targeting the right demographics and playing well with the copy and design.
SMS and E-mailers are support functions with hardly any digital innovation involved. On the other hand, there were certain forms of campaigning that did well for a couple of years. But now they can neither be used in the innovative genre nor in the genre of support function of any campaign. At least, marketing experts will agree to it. Such three ideas/concepts are listed below –
1. Promoting a Flash Mob:
"Mall was as it is usually but then this happened."
"Find out how XYZ made the ambiance exotic at PQR place!"
No wonder how quirky the headline is! Whichever Facebook status copy we use, there's nothing that people find exciting about watching a Flash Mob on their timeline. Now a bunch of energetic Zumba-doers isn't able to revitalize the crowd with a sense of newness. Be it any audience, there's no defiance in admitting Mob Flash can't pull off any further. Maybe in the tribal area, it could create a stirring response (only if the Zumba doers return safely and Tribals have been consuming the FMCG brands).
2. Viral Videos
Videos after videos!! It is an unending process. The value to anything arrives only when it is rarely found. Viral videos are under the process of becoming potentially viral. But since they are so many in number, they create less degree of punching effect. Moreover, there has been an upsurge in the number of Indian web series, so most of the viral videos are viewed from that point of view. Customers hardly remember the brand significance in the entire story. However, exceptions are always there.
3. Feminism
What best can a brand offer to a blind person? Their visibility. What best can we offer to a patriarchal society? The feminism. But, please excuse, it doesn't work anymore. All the permutations and combinations would go unnoticed. You support feminism or present its flip side; everything has already been put on the customer's table. Using this phenomenon might give considerable result but it surely would deprive the brand of a potential 'never-seen-before' identity.
While conducting a brainstorming session, especially for digital media, we must trim away certain things. Then only we can be assured that the eventual ideas are unique to our knowledge. Agree?

These were my three favorite items:
None of the pictures do these three items justice. The shirt was really flattering (and I LOVED the patterns), the vest was hands down a total winner and the pants were the most comfortable jeans I've ever put on. That being said, the price for these three items would be $194! That is just way out of my financial ballpark. Ironically enough, if I kept all 5 items it would only (only) cost $174 because of the 25% discount. If I had loved the last two shirts (one I hated and one--the one under the vest in the photo above--was okay) I would probably be tempted to get it, but since I know I probably wouldn't wear those last two shirts I just can't bring myself to spend that kind of money. I am probably going to keep either the jeans or the shirt,but I haven't decided which yet. In lieu of the vest, I found this one at Costco for a mere $20 and immediately ordered it in gray:

Lilium, a Munich-based startup which was founded by four entrepreneurs in 2015, developed an electric car-sized aircraft that can take off and land vertically.
The company said that now its has raised $90 million in the series B founding for the R&D of the five-seat mini jet. The series B funding comes from Chinese tech giant Tencent, Niklas Zennström, who is Skype's co-founder, and Obvious Ventures, whose co-founder Ev Williams also helped create and run Twitter. Currently, total investment in Lilium reached over $100 million.
The series B funding "is the next stage in our rapid evolution from an idea to the production of a commercially successful aircraft that will revolutionize the way we travel in and around the world's cities," Daniel Wiegand, the CEO and co-founder of the company, said in the statement. "It makes Lilium one of the best-funded electric aircraft projects in the world," he said.
Matthias Meiner, a co-founder and head control of Lilium, said in April that the company aimed to achieve manned flights in a five-passenger version by 2019.
Currently, Lilium has around 70 employees, and it plans to use the news fund to hire more physicists, aeronautical engineers, and electric propulsion estimates. The company also hired Remo Gerber, which was Gett's high-level executive, as its chief commercial officer.

We made this winter weight tight as soft as a pony's nose inside, with a durable, matte exterior and a pocket because ponies need more treats when it's chilly. They feel like sweatpants, but are far smarter. While brushed fleece inside keeps skin happy, the sturdy outside lets kids collect stories at the barn, not hay and shavings.

We've been watching the new documentary series on the Vietnam War, which is excellent but also exhausting and upsetting and full of sparks of memory: Oh, that guy! I remember him. Wait, this thing is about to happen. Look how skinny those soldiers are, carrying all that equipment, just like those guys we knew. It also fills in gaps in memory. I never knew much about the Vietnamese experience. I didn't realize how many Americans were opposed to the anti-war movement, even after the Kent State killings. A poll at the time found over half of Americans thought the dead students had it coming. I suppose that included the two students shot dead at Jackson State University eleven days later, though they didn't get as much attention.
