A beautiful breakfast meats flower that blooms in my tummy.
Its about 11 am and Im sitting at my new desk in my cold little blue "painting room". Its very sunny and my view out the window is of snow covered rocky granite hills. My feet are cold on the linoleum floor despite my double sock protection so Im alternating which one stays on the floor. I'm listening to youtube videos of a girl quietly speaking korean, talking about face creams. It's super relaxing. I can hear CB in the other room talking to his brother about motorcycles. We got up early, but not earlier than the sun today, thank god. CB made a nice breakfast and I made some weak ass coffee. Our plans for the day are minimal, being as it is sunday. I'd like to clean up and go for a walk by the ocean later. It's not too cold out, just snowy. Contemplating another coffee.
I'm glad we went away to NZ for millions or reasons but the one Im thinking about today is that it made me appreciate snow again. In the city, snow wasnt fluffy white and romantic, it was grey sludge that made everyone miserable buttholes and really screwed up your day. Especially if you're an idiot who rides her bike to work through it every day. Yesterday when CB drove me to work in the dark there was a blanket of snow on the ground a foot deep. It's been so so so so windy here lately but the air was very quiet and not very cold. We could tell we were the first people to drive on the road because there were no tire tracks at all. We felt a tinge of guilt for some reason at that, like we wrecked the purity of white that was going on. Later at work I went out of the kitchen to the outbuilding to grab some more molasses and the sight of all that white around me literally made me gasp. I forgot how beautiful snow is! ITS SO COOL! I'm totally gay for snow right now.
CB has been taking care of the two newfie dogs at work a couple of times a week. He takes them for long walks, and is training the boy-dog or.. man dog.. how to pull carts. He loves it! He puffs out his chest and looks so noble pulling his cart of wood all around. It was nice to go outside in my chef whites and look out over the snowy landscape around me, at the blue blue ocean, and see CB and two fluffy dogs bounding around so small way out in the distance. When I came into work in the morning my oven wasnt working, the freezer had gone down and my frustration levels were mounting and it wasnt even 5:30 am yet.. but being able to go outside and see insane beauty for some reason takes all my stress away! And I remember, it's just desserts, calm down and just make some nice stuff. And then I do it. And then I eat it. And then my blood feels restless, like it wants to get into a mosh pit and F some S up! Ya know! F some S Up! F IT!
Anyway… I better go drag my mangy ass into the shower. Woo the smell of me! It was a long work week and I am ripe. Last night we both got home late and were so tired. I vaguely remember heating up a tiny frozen pizza for dinner. But first nearly burning down the house because I cranked the oven to 425 and didnt realize the oven was full of breadcrumbs from the previous nights dinner debacle. I murdered them.. they were beyond toast. I think I created a new breadcrumb based form of carbon. Bah. I probably could have thrown some cheese on it and ate that though, would have been tastier than the McCain brand LIE that we ate. It was more like a large pizza flavoured cracker, improved slightly by the 1/2 brick of mozza and jar of olives I dumped on it. ANYWAY! Frozen pizzas only digest into regret and weird, uncomfortable dreams. Today is grocery day, so tonight we'll dine like KINGS!
And a queen.. Yeah..

SAN ANTONIO (Reuters) - A Texas lawmaker will release a trooper's dashboard camera video on Tuesday that sheds light on the arrest of a Chicago-area woman who died three days later in jail, his spokesman said.
State Senator Royce West will make the video public at Prairie View A&M University, near where school employee Sandra Bland, 28, was arrested, said his spokesman, Kelvin Bass.
The July 13 death of Bland, from the Chicago suburb of Naperville, was originally ruled a suicide. But her family expressed doubt that she would have killed herself - she had just moved to Texas for a promising new job - and Waller County District Attorney Elton Mathis said on Monday he would investigate the incident as a homicide.
Demonstrators have protested outside the jail where Bland died and her case has been taken up by activists who say it is the latest example of racial bias and excessive force by U.S. law enforcement.
Jailhouse video released on Monday showed a space of about 90 minutes between the last physical check-up of Bland in her cell, and when she was discovered dead, hanging by a plastic trash bag at about 9 a.m.
The "dashcam" recording of the arrest has not been released yet but Mathis and Bland family lawyer Cannon Lambert said on Monday it showed Bland being pulled over for a minor traffic violation.
When the trooper, who has not been identified and has been put on desk duty for allegedly violating protocol in the arrest, asked Bland to put our her cigarette, she refused and the officer asked her to get out of the car.
In the rest of the video, Lambert said, the officer pulled out his Taser, Bland got out of the car, and then they are out of view and Bland can be heard protesting her arrest.
In a separate case, in Alabama on Tuesday, protesters rallied outside the jail in Homewood, a suburb of Birmingham, questioning the death of an 18-year-old woman that police say committed suicide in jail last week, local media reported.
Kindra Chapman, who had been arrested on robbery charges, died in custody on July 14, according to WBRC-TV and the news website AL.com. Authorities said she was found in her cell with a bed sheet tied around her neck in a suicide attempt.

|Shield of Trinity Coat of Arms, granted
by Sir Christopher Barker, Garter King of
Arms, to Sir Thomas Pope.
Authority: Patent granted from Sir Christopher Barker, Garter King of Arms, June 26, 1535: Party per pale or and azure on a cheveron between three gryphons heads eraſed four fleur de lys all countercharged. The following year, October 15, 1536, "he [Thomas Pope] was knighted by Henry eighth, amid the ſolemnities attending the creations of the earl of Southampton, and the gallant Edward Seymour, earl of Hertford, afterwards the famous duke of Somerſet." (Warton, 1753, 16-17.)
Full Achievement: The full achievement of arms includes two griffins azure and or as a crest on a crown. See arms at right from the collection of Oxford college coats of arms that John P. Brooke-Little (1927-2006) published in 1951 under the auspices of the Heraldry Society. He rose to become Clarenceux King of Arms, second-highest-ranking officer at the College of Arms.

Institutional History: Durham College was founded in about 1286 for the Benedictine monks of Durham and was a cell of that monastery. In 1544 it was suppressed as part of Edward VI's extension of Henry VIII's acquisition of the property of the Roman Catholic monasteries. Eleven years later, almost immediately upon the accession of Mary Tudor, Sir Thomas purchased the old Durham property and founded on it Trinity College. Sir Thomas, who was a Roman Catholic, made a founder's plea to future generations of students to pray for his soul. He and his wife may have been concerned about his possible punishment in the next life for having enriched himself as a manager of the sale of monastic properties on behalf of Henry VIII and his successors.
Physical History Highlights: Trinity used the old buildings of Durham College, especially those clustered now around what is called Durham Quad. For example, the Old Library at Trinity has windows from the Durham College Chapel, including one showing the coat of arms of an ancestor of George Washington. The current Trinity College Chapel was built in 1691 in the presidency of Dr. Bathurst; the carvings by Grinling Gibbons have recently been restored using the highest standards of care and the chapel will reopen soon.
Intellectual and Religious History: Because of its Catholic founder, Trinity College has continued to have an allegiance among Roman Catholics, although its chapel has Church of England services. It has consistently over the years attracted students from Ampleforth College, for example. It also seems to have had a way of pushing high-church Anglicans toward Rome. John Henry (later Cardinal) Newman was a student at Trinity College and later converted to Roman Catholicism. Ronald Knox was appointed Trinity's (Anglican) Chaplain during the administration of Herbert Blakiston. When students went to war, enrollment plummeted, Knox resigned for lack of meaningful work, and eventually converted to Rome. He returned to Oxford as its Catholic Chaplain at the Newman Center; Trinity's Fellows elected him a member of the common room and he ate at the college regularly. Other famed Trinity Alumni leaders include: the first and second Lords Baltimore (George Calvert, founder of what became the State of Maryland, and his two son Cecil; another son Leonard was Governor; all three were alumni); Lord Wilmington, Prime Minister; William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, PM; Lord North, PM under George III; Lord Stanhope, Whig Leader. Famed Trinity Alumni writers include: Viscount Bryce (The American Commonwealth), Lord Clark (Civilization), James Elroy Flecker, Walter Savage Landor, and Q (Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch).
Related Heraldic Highlights: As mentioned, both of the first two Lord Baltimore were alumni of Trinity College. The City of Baltimore, Md., is named after Cecil. The name of the Baltimore Orioles came from the black (sable) and red (gules) colors in the coat of arms granted to the second Lord Baltimore. Trinity College's former Senior Tutor, Michael Maclagan, was also Richmond Herald of the College of Arms in 1980-89. The immediate past President of Trinity, Sir Ivor Roberts, is a Welshman and was H.M. Ambassador to Italy. His granted coat of arms uses a Welsh motto Bid ben, bid bond, translated into Latin as Fiat princeps, fiat pons–"Be a leader, be a bridge."

For the last two years Greenhouse Factory has provided opportunities and created memories for not only us, but for our customers. We opened its doors just over two years ago, and we are so overly humbled and appreciative of the support and constant admiration we have from our local foodies, loyal customers and online followers.
After a year of nourishing bellies, as a team we wanted to do more. Greenhouse Factory and its devoted employees went on to host numerous events raising money for animal charities close to our hearts. We partnered with leading vegan businesses to help raise awareness on the affects meat and dairy have on our planet, bodies and the cruelty that accompanies it.
Looking to expand our brand, the gang started playing with concepts for a new eatery. Somewhere we could continue to push boundaries and squash the stereotypes that are associated with veganism. Greenhouse Canteen + Bar was the perfect space to serve innovative plant based street food, share plates, a medicinal cocktail menu, while still holding true to our philosophies.
After signing a lease to open our second project we received some terrible news about our first. Our beachfront home for the last two years was being turned into a set of beachfront apartments in the coming year. Ideally we wanted to run the two simultaneously, with two different concepts both supporting the vegan movement. However with the development in Kirra being approved Greenhouse Canteen + Bar in Miami became our main priority. Our kind crew held off on fit out for Canteen and worked out the best way to end our lease, close our doors in Kirra and migrate north.
We crawled. We stood up. We stumbled. We got knocked down. And we are about to run. Greenhouse Factory turned into a toddler this year and it is with the heaviest of hearts that we have had say goodbye to the home where we learnt to walk. We strive to grow, be better and dream bigger. Greenhouse has made a strong foundation through the year of terrible twos becoming a fluid resistant business.
We look forward to changing the way the food industry is perceived meal by meal.
With our sass on standby. Stay tuned.

W. World Wide Wait Wednesday
A-Z: Our 30 day mission: to bring you a tasty boat life tidbit of the day, washed down with a shot of snarky slang. Boat.Life.Larks.
"Windy, ain't it?"
"Wednesday, I thought it was Thursday!"
"Thirsty? Let's go have a drink then!"
The truth is, when we've travelled before, we simply use less internet and use our phones to tether if need be. What's the damage? Our phone bill is around $40 for the two of us, using data, talk and text. Tethering will use data, but there is no additional charge to tether.
You can use our referral code and you will get $25 off your first bill, and so will we! Ting phone plan We don't find it cost prohibitive and it's definitely worth it to stay in touch with family and the interwebs. Only real problem is going to be staying off the interwebs enough to avoid Game of Thrones spoilers since we won't be watching it live. Oh, the humanity.

We often use our phone for web access while cruising -- but I just hate typing longer thoughts like blog posts on it. Phone hotspots rock!ReplyDeleteReplies
I hate even writing short emails from my phone. The hotspot is awesome! - LucyDelete
$40? Who's you cell phone provider?ReplyDelete
We use Ting. https://ting.com/rates?ab=1 The base rate is $6 a line, and then they have buckets of texts, data, and phone- you pay for whichever bucket you use. We have been using the Medium bucket, without curbing our use. It's great because it's a cheaper and I have a personal vendetta against AT&T, our previous provider!Delete
I think $40 for two phones using texts, calls and data is good value at home, let alone when you're sailing!ReplyDelete
Debbie, it's great! We switched to a new provider a little while ago and love the savings!Delete
If there is one breed of people being very familiar with the World Wide Wait, it is cruisers. OMG! On the positive side, we have grown a very healthy portion of patience and we are fortunate with the World Wide Wanderings of cell towers. Even with slow 2G reception in remote areas, slow is better than nothing!ReplyDelete
I am very scared of running into series spoilers as well. I love to watch those series when they are totally finished, so I can have a marathon and never have to wait for sequels like normal mortal people!

I was so annoyed when I opened Facebook once and there was a spoiler for Downton Abbey! It's sad when you can't go on the internet for fear of spoiling a PBS show about the 1920s!Delete
Yes, an opportunity for patience - I like your attitude!
I've never heard World Wide Wait before - perfect description. I'm off to check out Ting - sounds like a good deal.ReplyDeleteReplies
It is a good deal! If you want to sign up, we have a referral code - it will give you $25 off your first bill (or go towards a phone if you need one) (and it gives us $ off our bill!)Delete


text: A few years ago I had a GBC emulator on my phone, called Super GoBoy, which I used to play games like Pokemon. It only had one way to save games, which was save states. Recently I took a backup of my phone on my PC, and looked for the save states. I found them, and I tried (not expecting them to work) to run them in VBA. Of course, they didn't run, I got "unsupported visual boy save game version 1934844487", but I played around with giving loading other completely random files, and they all yielded similar error messages, so I don't think it does a difference. But as, at least as I have understood it, a save state is just an image of the RAM at the time of saving, it should be able to somehow convert these saves to something that could be used with other emulators. But I have no idea how I would go around doing that. So if anyone could help me with this, I'd be really happy. This is one of the savefiles, it's for Pokemon Crystal.

With work on the eagerly anticipated London Gateway Logistics Park well underway, the development of the logistics sector is high on Essex's agenda, bringing the county's educational establishments hand-in-hand with industry to build a hub of skilled, logistics talent.
At two times the size of the financial City of London [1] and expected to created 27,000 jobs [2], it's no wonder the development of the London Gateway Logistics Park in Essex has sparked a wave of workforce development.
Businesses within the sector are working closely with the region's further and higher education providers to create courses and qualifications that match the skills required to work in the industry, and further strengthen Essex's offering to businesses looking to invest in the area.
Investing in the future…
Leading the way in logistics skills development is South Essex College, which has recently invested £45million to create a new Thurrock Campus on the doorstep of the London Gateway site.
The college has introduced new courses to be delivered at the campus from September 2015, including the Business, Logistics and Supply Chain BTEC Level 3 Diploma, which, according to Mark Bentley, Logistics Development Manager at the college, will "springboard anybody who wants a career…into logistics." [3]
The diploma covers a variety of topics, from health and safety to stock management, communications technology, transport systems and the environment, equipping students with the necessary skills to work in the business of logistics, today.
Essex Business School also offers sector-specific postgraduate courses, covering topics such as Supply Chains and Logistics – Technology and Management, and Global Supply Chain and Operations Management.
The former provides students with insights into the uses of modern technology in the industry, while the latter provides learners with the skills to 'more effectively align their supply with the demand for their products and services in global environment'. [4]
Working in partnership with industry…
The benefits for businesses that offer apprenticeships and work closely with further education providers are well documented, with companies reporting increased productivity, improved business performance and fewer skill gaps. [5]
South Essex College is harnessing these benefits and ensuring its courses meet industry demand by offering apprenticeships in logistics operations and management, allowing students to 'see the theoretical processes live…at the coalface of logistics' [3], according to Mark Bentley.
The work-based Advanced Apprenticeship in Logistics Operations Management, for example, allows students to gain a level three certificate in logistics operations while working 30-hours-per-week in the industry.
For employers in the area, this means that a continuous stream of skilled, cost-effective workers is available, helping businesses to develop the specialist skills required to 'keep pace with the latest technology and working practices' [6] in the sector.
A gateway to success…
Hailed as a 'game changer' [7] there's no doubt the London Gateway development has helped to put Essex firmly on the map, and redefined the future of the UK's port and logistics industry. With its state-of-the-art infrastructure, proximity to London and excellent nationwide road and rail connections, the site, in combination with Essex's wider ports and logistics infrastructure, is establish the county firmly as a major hub for international trade. [8]
Essex's commitment to working with businesses and developing the skills required by the port and logistics sector only enhances these benefits even further, futureproofing the industry and putting the county on the map as an unrivalled port of call for investment.

Product DetailsA true "monster rally," this Japanese special-effects smorgasbord stars no fewer than four "A"-list movie monstrosities. Once again, the citizens of Tokyo are subjected to an ill-tempered atomic mutant. This time it's the triple-headed Ghidrah, who breathes electric volts in all directions. Coming to Tokyo's rescue is faithful old Mothra, but Ghidrah proves too much for the outsized insect, even with the ubiquitous "Peanuts" (Emi and Yumi Ito) acting as Mothra's cheerleaders. Fortunately, Godzilla and Rodan stop fighting each other to help Mothra vanquish Ghidrah.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 170952
xinitrc places a file under /usr/X11R6
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:15 EST
Thanks for the report. I just reviewed xinitrc, and this is the culprit:
# FIXME: This should move to /usr/bin sometime, with a backward compatible
# symlink added back just prior to release, to help people to fix things to
# use /usr/bin instead. Then keep the symlink for a release or so. When
# this changes, X11BINDIR in the Makefile needs to be updated also.
RunWM is an archaic script that I don't think anything actually uses anymore.
I left it around, just in case, however I think it is safe to kill it now.
The xorg-x11-xinit package obsoletes 'xinitrc' in the modular tree, and does
not contain the RunWM script. I've moved all of xinitrc into the new
package, and also updated all paths pointing to X11R6 in the scripts
I think we're good to go for this one, even though current rawhide xinitrc
still has the RunWM script, but that's ok.
I'll leave this one open until we push modular X into rawhide.
xinitrc is gone in the modular X staging tree

SOURCE: Firma Holdings Corp.
March 04, 2015 09:15 ET
HENDERSON, NV--(Marketwired - Mar 4, 2015) - Firma Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: FRMA) is pleased to provide an update on its wholly owned SmartPac Global division. Significant progress has been made towards establishing the SmartPac packaging system as a global solution to the problems of decay, moisture loss, infestation and food-borne disease that are common in the fresh produce industry. Firma has successfully completed several SmartPac demonstrations through shipments to major retailers and distributors in Europe and Asia. Retailers have confirmed the economic and product quality enhancement attributes provided by the SmartPac system and are now actively engaged in material fulfillment discussions. Due to the overwhelming positive response, Firma has engaged strategic global carton manufacturers to establish an infrastructure that will be able to support pending, as well as forecasted, demand for the SmartPac technology.
Firma engaged the services of a global distribution and logistics expert to introduce and enlist end users to its patented SmartPac solution. This included major destination importers, retailers and food service distributors, in both Europe and Asia. The objective was to introduce and properly communicate the significant value propositions offered by the SmartPac packaging system. As a result of these meetings, Firma was engaged to demonstrate the performance by shipping asparagus, avocados, limes, and honeydew melons, in SmartPac cartons, to Japan and Europe. The demonstrations resulted in reducing transportation costs, reducing spoilage and handling costs, while enabling consumers to enjoy better tasting fresh food.
Firma's core patented technology, SmartPac, is a complete system for the preservation of fresh fruit, vegetables, and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage, using Modified Active Atmosphere Packaging technology. The SmartPac packaging technology is protected by patents throughout the world.
Clients, engaged to date, import high value fresh fruit and vegetables from long distances, including the US, Mexico, Peru and Chile. As one recent example, avocado fruit was shipped to Japan and the condition of the fruit was evaluated upon arrival by both the importer and SmartPac Global representatives. The avocado fruit using SmartPac technology was found to have arrived in superior condition, and with less weight loss, when compared to standard cartons. Demonstration of SmartPac's clear value propositions has resulted in requests for additional shipments and supply chain preparations for meeting scaled demand.
With these demonstrations, Firma has confirmed that the market demands an effective "per carton" solution that enables the retailer to capture and eliminate the costs associated with transportation and decay related waste generated in their fruits and vegetables supply chains. As a result, in addition to seeking to fulfill current market requests and developing custom packaging, the company is currently expanding its global dynamic demonstrations.
About Firma Holdings Corp. (http://www.FirmaHoldings.com)
Firma recently acquired intellectual property for the preservation and protection of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage. The patented technology, known as "SmartPac," is a bulk produce packaging system available for world-wide generic industry applications. In addition, the company's mining division holds mining projects that encompass over 45,000 acres of mining concessions.

While Apple provides a whole host of great features with each iOS version, many users still find themselves jailbreaking to get the functionality and features that they really want. Android users don't get that option as their devices cannot be jailbroken. That means that, although Android does offer more choice and freedom than iOS, their users are still missing out on quite a bit. But not anymore, thanks to a new app called Mojo, an app installer that offers some app and tweaks from third party developers that can be used to modify stock Android apps.
Image : Mojo Installer for Android Download
Mojo Installer Features :
Apart from the fact that no jailbreak is required for Mojo, making it ideal for Android users, there are loads of features that you can take advantage of:
- The installation instructions are easy to follow
- Mojo is user-friendly; all you have to do is search for the tweak you want
- No coding background is needed nor is it necessary to be particularly technical-minded
- You don't need a WiFi connection for Mojo to run
- Mojo contains several different packages for you to choose from
- Make use of the integrated Quick Search feature to find your app and tweaks quickly
- Keep an eye on what you download with the Package History feature
- Add sources to get more tweaks and apps
- Mojo comes in 5 different language
- You can use any host to download packages and apps; you are not limited to Mojo
- Mojo not for you ? Deleting Mojo is easy
Android users shouldn't expect Mojo to give them the same depth of functionality that Cydia provide iOS users. That said, it's a nice easy app to use and is a decent alternative for those who are not able to apply a jailbreak to their devices.
How to Install Mojo on Android :
- On your Android device, open the Settings app
- Locate and click on Security
- Look for the option that says Unknown Source Options
- Click the box beside it – note that, if you don't do this step, you will not be able to download the Mojo APK onto your device and that means you won't be able to install the Mojo app
- Download Mojo Installer APK onto your Android smartphone or tablet
- Find the file on your Android device and double click it for the installation to begin
- Wait for the installation to be completed before you do anything else .
- You can now enjoy access to a number of tweaks and apps that you can use to modify stock Android apps and experience something of what iOS users get with a jailbreak.

If you are reporting a life/safety emergency please call 911 immediately. If you are reporting a major leak, flooding, or other emergency please call our leasing office at 804-643-3098 or the after-hours emergency line at 804.402.8450.
For almost any electrical problem, please check the breaker panel first before submitting a work order. If you open the panel, a list of breaker functions should be listed on the back of the door inside the panel box or identified beside each breaker. Identify the proper breaker and try turning it off and then on again.
"Several of my electrical outlet(s) in my kitchen/bathroom are not working?"
Step one is to identify the GFI outlet in your residence. It is most commonly found in the kitchen or bathroom near the sink. The GFI outlet looks different than a standard outlet because it has two buttons between the top and bottom outlet and often has an indicator light. One of the two buttons is identified as a reset button. Try to push the reset button; that should result in your outlets working again. If it does not, check any additional GFI outlets in the residence. If this fails to solve your problem, please place a work order.
"I have a light bulb that has burned out?"
All tenants are responsible for changing their own light bulbs. If a bulb is out or missing when you first move in, we will provide a replacement bulb at no cost. Since some light fixtures are hard to reach, we can provide a ladder to assist you in changing a bulb.
"The power is completely out in my residence?"
If the power is out to the entire building or house, it is most likely due to a power outage with Dominion Virginia Power. Management staff will be unable to do anything to restore the power. We suggest calling and reporting the outage to the power company.
"My toilet won't flush?"
If water is flowing into the toilet bowl but it is not draining or draining slowly, you most likely have a clog. To solve this use a plunger to clear the clog. If no water is flowing into the toilet bowl first check to ensure the water valve (located below the toilet tank where the water line comes through the floor or the wall) is in the on position. If neither of the solutions outlined above works, please place a work order.
"My toilet is overflowing?"
This is usually caused by a clog in the toilet. If the water is overflowing the bowl, you can turn off the water at the valve located below the tank where the water supply comes from the wall or floor. You should then use a plunger to clear the clog. After the toilet has been cleared of the clog, make sure to wipe/mop up any excess water.
"My toilet runs constantly?"
This is not an emergency situation but please place a work order below so that we can correct the problem and conserve water resources.
"My shower/tub drains slowly?"
Usually this is a result of hair and soap getting clogged in the drain. If you unscrew the drain plug you will be able to remove the hair and dispose of it in a waste basket. You can then pour some bleach down the drain to help clear any remaining clog. We do not recommend the use a liquid drain cleaning product because it can deteriorate the piping over time.
"My kitchen sink is overflowing even though there is no water running?"
Please notify us immediately in this instance by calling the leasing office or the emergency line.
"My garbage disposal does not work?"
If the garbage disposal does not work, you can try to press the reset button which is usually located on the bottom of the disposal itself. If this does not correct the problem, please place a work order because most likely a foreign object is lodged in the disposal.
"One of my plumbing fixtures has no water?"
You should check to make sure the water is turned on at the supply valve to the fixture. This valve is located below the fixture (if it is a sink the valve is in the cabinet under the sink) and should simply turn on and off. If it does not turn, please to not try to force it as this may result in flooding.
"My air conditioning system is not functioning properly?"
First, please check to see that the thermostat is set correctly and that the electrical breaker is in the on position. If it has tripped, try turning it off, then on again and see if that will solve the problem. If the breaker is on you can try turning the entire system off and leaving it off for 30 minutes. Then turn it back on to see if that has solved the problem. Often times this will solve the problem. If this restarting procedure does not work, please place a work order.
Please note that turning the heat or air conditioning all the way up or down may cause damage to the system and will not result in it heating or cooling any faster. We recommend for optimal functioning you keep the temperature at a constant temperature throughout the day and night. If you desire to be more energy efficient, it is better to keep the system at a lower temperature in the winter and higher temperature in the summer instead of adjusting the system as you come and go throughout the day.
If a leak occurs in your residence, please place a bucket or trash can under the leak before doing anything else to help prevent any further damage from occurring. Once you have done so, please notify our leasing office or emergency line via telephone immediately. Please note that if it is a roof leak, roofers will not respond in the rain so it is best to try to catch the water in a bucket and we will respond as soon as possible to repair the roof.

"After doing my research into hair restoration, there was no reason for me to consider anything else but the NeoGraft way. I did not want a linear scar on the back of my head. I wanted the option of a short hair cut or even a complete shave - down the road. I also did not want to go through the extended healing and pain of the strip method offered to me by Bosley. I was willing to pay more for NeoGraft. It just made sense."
- Dan R.
"As a woman with thinning hair I searched for years for a solution. I tried everything and had every test done to see what the problem was. There were no clear answers for me. I decided on NeoGraft because it was a minimally invasive procedure. Best decision I ever made."

Hi Peter, thank-you for your time in this matter.
I'm trying to run the "Bignosebird" cardcgi V 2.0 on the Tripod.ca
freeserver. I've used their upload service for the cgi and I've ftp'd the
cgi to the cgi-bin directory. Neither one of them worked. Oh, the cgi is
there, it's just not doing what it should. Hmmmm, could it be that their
javascripted pop-up ads are interfering with the cgi? and of course I
can't/don't know how to set the site's "directory permissions variables".
Did that make any sense? Well here's what's happening. I've got the
card.html all setup with a test picture to choose from, you fill in all
the forms, hit preview and Tripod comes up with a very polite "404". I'm
going to assume that the cardcgi can't be found and now I'm a totally
frustrated granma! I've emailed Tripod for help but they seem to be
ignoring me, either that or they have no idea what I'm talking about and
can't help me. Here's the addy, if your curious:
So that's it.....and I'll keep plugging away at it until I hear from you.
Thanks again Peter.
Dear *NAME-DELETED*!
If the server gives you error 404, it means that the file is not there
where it expects it to be, or the other way around the URL you use to
reach the file is not correct. (Altough these two are essentially the two
sides of the same cow.)
I could hardly believe that their javascript pop-up ads interfere with the
CGI because that would not cause 404 error and also because many of their
customers use these scripts and most of the customers can not be unhappy,
they would have solved the issue already.
Altough this time it is not the permission that matters, I tell you that
setting the permission can be done via most of the FTP windows clients. I
myself use securefx sometime to upload files to some servers and the file
properties box gives a nice checkbox style permission setting possibility.

What is clearing title?
Clearing title is the process of verifying that you own the interest. Title is the legal right or evidence of the legal right to property.
What is a division order?
A division order is a document confirming ownership information in a particular property/unit and authorizing distribution of funds according to that information. The division order does not represent a sale of your property or any changes to your lease. When you sign and return the division order, you confirm that you agree with the information disclosed in the document.
Where can I get a valuation of my mineral interest?
EOG Resources does not provide appraisals for interests. Please contact a certified petroleum engineer, a royalty management company or broker to obtain the valuation.
Where can I find my owner number (Account number)?
The owner number is on your check, check stub detail, and on your 1099. Each owner has been assigned a unique 6-digit owner number. Please include your owner number in all communications with EOG Resources, including voicemail and email.
How do I change my mailing address?
Please go to Address Change for information on changing your mailing address.
What documents are required for a name change?
Please refer to the Ownership Change page for a list of required documents.
Does EOG Resources offer direct deposit for royalty checks?
Yes, please refer to the Direct Deposit page for further information.
How do I change my direct deposit information?
Please refer to the Direct Deposit page for information on how to change your direct deposit.
When are royalty checks issued?
Royalty payments are mailed or deposited electronically into your account on or around the 12th of each month, unless that day is a weekend or holiday. In that case, payment is mailed or deposited electronically into your account the next business day.
What is the minimum payment amount?
EOG Resources has a minimum payment policy of the lesser of $25.00 or the minimum amount required by statue or the minimum amount required by your lease. A payment will automatically be issued in the month that your account has accumulated this minimum required amount. Otherwise, in January of each year, you will be issued your accumulated payment as long as it totals more than $10.00.
Why does my monthly payment amount vary?
There are various factors that may affect your monthly payment such as suspended payments, adjustments, fluctuating commodity prices, production volumes, and operating issues which may affect the volumes produced from a well during a given time period.
Why does my payment differ from others in my family?
This can occur because ownership between family members may not be equal. Some family members may own interest in other properties in addition to those commonly owned. Different payments can also occur due to title issues. Thus, payments are held in suspense until the issue can be resolved.
What should I do if I do not receive my royalty checks?
Due to potential postal delays, please allow 10 business days to receive your royalty checks. If you still did not receive a royalty check after 10 business days from the 12th of the month, then please contact the Royalty Relations Department at (877) 363-3647 or email us at email@example.com.
Can checks over 6 months still be cashed?
No, checks over 6 months are out dated and cannot be cashed. Please call the Royalty Relations Department at (877) 363-3647 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com to have your check reissued.
When are 1099 tax forms mailed out?
The 1099 Miscellaneous Tax forms will be mailed out on January 31.
Why am I being charged expenses/deductions even though I am not a working interest owner?
Some costs associated with selling a product are shared by all owners including royalty owners. Working interest owners share all those same costs plus the cost of exploration, drilling, completing, equipping and operating a well.
Why is my 1099 more than what I received on my royalty checks?
The 1099 tax form shows the GROSS amount before taxes and other deductions as required by the IRS. The royalty checks are the NET amount after taxes and other deductions. In order to help you reconcile this gross amount to the total of your net royalty payments received, we include a reconciliation on the top of the 1099. The net amount should agree to the total royalty payments received.
Why is my NET royalty payment more than my GROSS amount?
The net amount can sometimes be more than the GROSS amount due to reimbursement of Severance Tax or other adjustments.

The young Turks in Congress felt betrayed.
They had just banded together to elect Rep. Les Aspin as chairman of the House Armed Services Committee because the Wisconsin Democrat seemed critical of big defense spending and the MX missile program.
Then they watched Aspin turn around and vote for the MX while the old guy they had passed over as chairman led thefforces against the missile system.
Now the rejected one, Rep. Charles Bennett, 74, is turning more than ever into a skeptical hawk, swooping down on the flabby defense budget and some frivolous contractors.
Make no mistake, Bennett, D-Jacksonville, hasn`t lost his love for the military.
He earned his stripes as an Army lieutenant who led guerrilla fighters in New Guinea and the Philippines during World War War II. After contracting polio during the war, Bennett came to Congress in 1948 and has hobbled around the Capitol with the help of one or two canes. He`s never missed a roll call, compiling a streak of nearly 15,000 continuous votes.
Bennett says he has always tried to cut military waste but now finds ``the atmosphere is right`` for charging after indulgent contractors.
As a key subcommittee chairman, he`s pushing a bill to prevent Pentagon employees from taking jobs with contractors until after a decent interval to prevent conflicts of interest. He`s also planning legislation to punish contractors for submitting frivolous expenses.
And he`ll ``oppose the MX right down the line,`` he says, because it takes money away from tanks and ships and other, more necessary hardware.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission put out a warning recently for celebrities who think that investing or putting out information on an initial coin offering would be a good idea. The SEC recently announced a cuber unit, that filed its first ever complaint, signaling that the agency may soon be regulating the cryptocurrency industry.
Firms in the cryptocurrency industry such as PlexCorps have often defrauded investors by offering false promises and sometimes even disappearing with their money. The SEC halted the PlexCorps initial coin offering or ICO as it is known in the industry. An ICO is essentially a way for a start-up to raise capital using cryptocurrency as opposed to offering traditional stocks. The company managed to raise upwards of $15 million in investor funds, where in turn the investors were given these digital coins. The company marketed these coins as "the next decentralized worldwide cryptocurrency." Unfortunately, the unrealistic returns the company promised never occurred.

The website stated that "the first 50 million PlexCoins would cost 13 cents each, the next 50 million would be priced at 28 cents, the next 100 million at 53 cents, and the last 200 million for 88 cents apiece. Immediately following the ICO, the website claimed, the value of a PlexCoin would be set at $1.76 and from that date forward … the value should normally increase, as PlexCoin will be from that moment available on the open market."
The hopes are high that these types of false companies can cease to ruin the name of cryptocurrency with the help of the SEC.

Kona's newest campaign takes you along for a ride through the Four Corners on four different bikes. From north to south, east to west, on isolated roads through one of the most scenic areas in North America. Stay tuned for more, with the first video launch being the Rove AL (north) on April 7th.
I can't imagine what it's like to ride a bike in Finland, much less in the middle of winter. Luckily, this new video from Kona gives a little insight into what it's like to cycle in arguably one of the most cycling friendly places on the globe. With over 1,200km of bike paths, the cyclists of Finland utilize their bikes as a means of transportation, regardless of the weather…
I like it when companies take a minute to profile some of their athletes, rather than putting out a pulse-racing video of them riding. Kudos to Kona for this one.

Thermostat Project using an Arduino
Budget $30-250 USD
Simple Arduino project creating a thermostat utilizing a thermistor. The link will give you an idea of what I'm looking for. I would like to replicate the project the link illustrates. I have all the materials needed for this project (ie thermistor, Arduino, breadboards, switches, resistors, relays. I just need someone to draw up a schematic for me to reference, as well as a step by step instruction on how to assemble the thermostat, including how to calibrate the thermistor if needed.
Here is a lay out of what I'm hiring for:
1. Schematic of thermostat. (Can be hand drawn, so long as it's readable).
2. Step by step assembly (simple terms like "place short wire from arduino analog slot # to bread board letter and number") This goes for every step including thermistor, resistors, switches, anything included. Basically write this out for someone who has little experience. Also, step by step instructions on calibrating the thermistor if needed. The instuction should go all the way up to uploading the code, and testing procedure.
From this I should be able to read your instructions and assemble the thermostat and test it myself.
The link below is a wonderful illustration of what I want, plus it gives the code for me to copy and paste, assuming the code works.

Q. "There's a sticker inside my Memoirs toilet tank lid that says I should use a different flush valve. Do you offer any other parts? Which flush valve should I use?"
A. Certain models of Kohler Memoirs toilets using a 3" canister flush valve have a sticker that looks like this on the inside of the tank lid that shows the replacement flush valve as being a number 1080691 - this is simply a typographical error. The correct number for the replacement canister flush valve is #1080961, which we currently offer above. The #1080961 canister flush valve is the one that should fit your toilet if the sticker on your tank lid matches what is shown here.
Q. "The GP1138930 comes with some colored inserts. What are those for?"
A.Since the Kohler GP1138930 is a replacement for a variety of fill valves, it comes with a selection of color coded flow restrictors. To select the correct insert, check your old fill valve (the one you're replacing) and use the same color restrictor on your new GP1138930 fill valve. See example of the four included restrictors.
Q. "How do I find my Kohler model number?"
A. For our customers' convenience, we list both the model number and the tank number of the Kohler toilets we offer parts for. If you already know your model number, that's great - but oftentimes this information won't be available to you. What you'll need to do then is look for the TANK number, which is right where you'd expect it to be on the inside of your toilet tank. Grab a flashlight, carefully remove your tank lid, place your lid somewhere safe, and look around inside your toilet tank for a 4-digit number beginning with either a 3 or a 4. Certain specialty toilets may have a 5-digit number starting with a 1. The number will be either molded into the porcelain or stamped on in blue or black ink. This is your tank number and you can use it to find the parts you need to fix your toilet.
Q. "There are letters and/or numbers after the model number inside my Kohler toilet tank - what do those mean?"
A. Kohler offers many variations of almost all their toilet models, and has experimented in the past with many different features. Typically, numbers (or a single letter/number combination like K4 or Y2) after the 4- or 5-digit model number indicate the color code for your toilet. If your model number is followed by letters, those usually have different meanings to indicate the features of your toilet or will indicate that you have a specialty Artist Edition toilet.

One of the great volleyball players in LSU history, Detra Brown Morgan helped the Tigers win back-to-back Southeastern Conference championships in 1985 and 1986. She still ranks fourth among the school's all-time leaders in kills and eighth in digs.
Soon enough, Malik Morgan aims to make his own memories in the arena where his mother once soared above the volleyball net.
A senior shooting guard at John Curtis, Morgan became the first commitment of the LSU men's basketball's 2012 recruiting class back in August; he plans to sign with Trent Johnson's Tigers at a signing ceremony in River Ridge on Wednesday morning.
Wednesday is the first day of the weeklong early signing period for basketball and other sports, including baseball and softball.
"I've always wanted to go there," Morgan said. "It's been my dream to stay in state and play for my home state."
On the heels of signing McDonald's All-American Johnny O'Bryant, Kentucky Mr. Basketball Anthony Hickey and Pickering all-stater John Isaac, LSU has only the commitment of Morgan as the early signing period arrives.
Memphis (Tenn.) Central guard Danielle Ballard, listed by ESPN/HoopGurlz as the nation's No. 24 prospect, leads the list of recruits expected to sign with the LSU women.
Ballard, a 5-foot-9 lefty, committed to the Lady Tigers in the summer after helping lead Memphis Central to the Class 3A state title as a junior. She scored 21 points in the state final as the Warriors completed a 29-9 season.
Morgan averaged 28 points, seven rebounds and five assists for Curtis last year, leading the Patriots to Class 2A's quarterfinals. The versatile 6-4 guard is entering his fourth year as a varsity starter.
"LSU's been the school of choice for him from when he was a little kid," Curtis coach Mike Krajcer said. "It's like a dream come true for him to go to LSU and play basketball."
Coming off back-to-back 20-loss seasons, LSU opens the season Saturday against Nicholls State at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.
The Tigers return a veteran nucleus to go along with Iowa State transfer Justin Hamilton, and the trio of 2011 signees.
Morgan took his official visit to LSU in September and has been a regular at home football games. He said he feels like his future team is on the verge of breaking through.
"From what I've been hearing, they've turned it around already as it is," Morgan said. "I'm just trying to come up there next year and make it even stronger."
The regular signing period for basketball prospects is April 11-May 16. Prospects in sports other than football can sign with their respective schools during the early signing period.
Centreville Academy pitcher Hunter Devall and Parkview Baptist pitcher Russell Reynolds are among the baseball players expected to sign with LSU either Wednesday or later in the week.
Dutchtown pitcher Jacob Waguespack is set to sign with Ole Miss on Thursday. Another PBS pitcher, Colin Rodgers, is expected to sign with Auburn.
The list of other baseball players scheduled to sign include Denham Springs' Kyle Cedotal (Southeastern Louisiana University), Zachary's Jameson Fisher (Southeastern), Central Private's Seth Stevens (Nicholls State), Zachary's Tanner Hebert (Louisiana-Monroe) and Jackson resident Hunter Travis of Centreville (Louisiana Tech).
Also, St. Amant High softball player Gabby Felps is scheduled to sign with the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.
Advocate sportswriter Robin Fambrough contributed to this report.
