Can someone help me, please? I downloaded WinRAR and started to get a box saying "applehebi" coming up every minute or so. Also, when I try to go to google, I get redirected toa site that looks like Microsoft but I'm sure is bogus.
Following some advice on the web, I removed a file called "C:\Windows\System32\Explore.exe" but the advice also suggested changes to the registry to remove a file called "explore" but I'm not confident to do this.
I also ran a Norton and downloaded and ran MalwareBytes Antimalware. This detected 4 infections and I fixed them. Since then, I no longer get the "applehebi" box but I'm still getting redirected when I go to google.
I then downloaded and ran HiJackThis and the log file is attached.
Well, I'm not sure if it is, actually. I browsed to it and hit the "Add The File" button but I have a message at the top saying the extension log is not allowed.

Re-production D-Day Maps
A series of maps were produced in the run up to D-Day by the Allies as they planned the assault. Locations of gun positions, batteries, pill boxes and a range of defences such as anti tank trenches and underwater obstacles were plotted from aerial reconnaissance. The original maps have been digitally scanned in full colour.
Ste. Marie du Mont Map. Scale: 1:25,000
Trim Size: 730mm X 550mm
Sadly, for the moment this is the only map available in this series. Covering the area between Utah and Omaha beaches, nonetheless, this map gives an extraordinary insight into the observational qualities of the photographic interpreters. This edition dated 19 May, 1944 has been updated since the previous edition with new defences picked up from the photography.

Reinhardt University's Future Business Leaders of America-Phi Beta Lambda students did it again and will represent the University this summer at the National Leadership Convention in Anaheim, California.
In addition, Reinhardt University Trustee Kevin Williams was named the Business Person of the Year, Kristen Holder was awarded the Who's Who in PBL and Ethan Alexander was named the Outstanding PBL Member of the Year.
"Nothing brings me greater joy than to serve our team and the community that I love. Reinhardt is a big part of that service that I find a lot of joy in," Williams said. "I am grateful for the honor but even more grateful to work alongside the Reinhardt students, faculty and staff."
Without any advance notice or preparation, Bill Hess competed in global awareness and in Georgia history, placing first and second, respectively.
Ten Reinhardt students competed at the state competition in Atlanta April 7-8, and those placing in the top three of their categories earn a spot at the national convention. Alexander said, in preparation for an inaugural car show, that they wanted to raise the money on their own and did not want to ask the University to fund their trip. The car show raised $800, and the team continues to raise funds. The team has set up an online fundraising page with a goal of $20,000. To contribute, visit reinhardtuniversity.onlinedonations.us/home/team-view-fundraiser/1562/1562.
"We are very proud of the students and their accomplishments," said Dr. Kathy Hyatt, dean of the McCamish School of Business. "These students are stars in their area and deserved to win their awards."
The PBL-FBLA students participated in the state competition in Atlanta:
Holder, Murphy, Palmer, Hess, Williams and Alexander have qualified for the national competition. Instructor of Business, Diane Petty, will accompany them.

Myself and Tyberius (as he shall be called until he picks up a username) went on a bit of a jaunt after soccer last night. We headed down to Parliament Hill and wandered around with a pair of cameras and tripods, taking pictures of that which amuse us. At one point we're setting up for a shot down by the river and these two 20ish year old guys wander up the path towards us carrying a couple beers and chatting. They stop near us, 'What are you taking a picture of?'. I kinda look around the area and respond with pretty much everything. It's the joy of digital cameras, the film is free. He takes a pull from his beer and looks around, comes back with 'Yeah.. there's really a good view from this area, pretty much any direction you stand.' I really can't say if he was being sarcastic or not, as not lot of people know you can take pictures in the dark and have them actually turn out, but I prefer to think he was being sincere. It stokes my idea that there's Canadian spirit in everyone and it just takes a bit of a nudge for it to get out. The world needs all the good will it can get.

Revelation chapter 2 continued (The Seven Letters to the Seven Churches): Smyrna is the second letter in chapter two. Smyrna's name means 'Myrrh/ Martyr" and the conditions and characteristics of this church represent Christendom from about 100 A.D. to about 313 A.D. when Emperor Constantine signed the Edict of Toleration. This was a period when Christianity grew exponentially but Christians suffered great persecution. The city of Smyrna still exists today under the Turkish name of Izmir. It is about 40 miles north of ancient Ephesus and was a beautiful city during the time this letter was written. Ephesus was a great political center and Smyrna was a great commercial center as it was on a direct trade route from India and Persia to Rome. Smyrna had many fine buildings and wide paved streets as well as schools of science and medicine. The temple of Bacchus, the Greek god of wine, and many other pagan temples existed then. There was also a number of apostate Jews living there. Smyrna is the birthplace of Homer, the blind poet who wrote the famous Iliad and Odyssey epics. Unfortunately it was also a place where Christians were both ostracized and persecuted for the cause of Christ. In 155 A.D. Polycarp, a student of the apostle John, was carried to the stadium in Smyrna and burned alive.
Jesus starts off His introduction with words of reassurance. He says, "These things saith the first and the last, which was dead and is alive" (2:8). This echoes part of His introduction to John in chapter one and is meant here to comfort the believers of Smyrna, many of whom would eventually be put to death for His name's sake. He is essentially reminding them that He has the power of death and life. His words here are similar to those He spoke to Martha at Lazarus' tomb when He told her, "I am the resurrection and the life." The first death which cometh to all men is not the end and born again Christians who die are guaranteed a resurrection and eternal life. Christ being alive is evidence that death is not final for the saved.
After His introduction, He starts off like all the other letters with the phrase, "I know thy works". He commends them for their faithfulness even in the face of poverty and persecution. Smyrna had many trade guilds and most of the Christians there had been members of these guilds before converting to Christianity. After being saved however many were banned from the trade guilds and many suffered bankruptcy and poverty due to the loss of work. But notice that God sees them as rich. (2Corinthians 6:10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.) The local Jewish population had in it some apostates who actively sought to persecute the church. D r. Charles Ryrie writes: "The instigators of the persecution were apostate Jews who were in reality instruments of Satan. At the martyrdom of Polycarp (disciple of John the Apostle) in 155, these Jews eagerly assisted by gathering on the Sabbath wood and fagots for the fire in which he was burned" (Revelation, p. 23). Jesus says here they are of the synagogue of Satan.
He then warns them that they will face 10 days of tribulation. This likely doesn't refer to actual days but rather either the 10 periods of persecution (Shown Below) or the 10 years of intense persecution under Emperor Diocletian. He tells them at the beginning of verse 10 to be fearless and at the end of the verse to be faithful unto death. We've been very blessed to live in a country of relative freedom where we can worship our Lord freely. That may not always be the case and this message is still important to us. If you get a chance pick up a copy of John Foxes' Book of Martyrs. The ten periods of persecution are:
(a) Nero (64-68)—killed Peter and Paul.
(b) Domitian (81-96)—thought Christianity was atheistic. Killed thousands of believers. Banished John to Patmos.
(c) Trajan (98-117)—was the first to pass laws against Christianity. Burned Ignatius at stake.
(d) Pius (137-161)—killed Polycarp, disciple of John.
(e) Marcus Aurelius (161-180)—thought Christianity an absurd superstition. Beheaded the great writer and defender of the faith, Justin Martyr.
(f) Severus (193-211)—killed Origen's father.
(g) Thracian (235-238)—brutal barbarian. Commanded all Christian leaders to die.
(h) Decius (249-251)—determined to exterminate Christianity.
(i) Valerian (253-260)—killed Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage.
(j) Diocletian (284-305)—last and most severe persecution. For ten years believers were hunted in caves and forests. They were burned, thrown to wild beasts, and put to death by every torture cruelty could devise. But Diocletian's own wife and daughter accepted Christ.
Christ promises the overcomer that he will not be hurt of the second death which is the Lake of Fire. Who is the overcomer? 1John 5:4-5 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? That is you and I if you are one of His.
Jesus ends the letter the same as all the others with the phrase, "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches." In the old testament (Ex. 29) we're told that part of the consecration of the High Priest included having the tip of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand and the big toe of the right foot dipped with the blood of the lamb. This consecrated their mind, works, and walk. The things of the Lord are spiritually discerned my friends and Christ says here at the close "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches…" If you and I are to understand the word, we must have the light of the Holy Spirit touch our ear so we may hear what He would have us know.

At seven o'clock on Sunday morning I was already up and getting ready to start my journey. My bags were packed and in the car from the night before as I didn't want to risk forgetting anything or having to rush around on the last minute. There's was time for a cup of coffee and then I was on my way to Manchester airport feeling sure that I had forgotten something. 100 meters down the road I made a u-turn and headed back home. I'd forgotten my phone which was still charging in the kitchen. Good job I realised...
No more delays and I'm off down the road and at the airport in less than an hour. I check my case in and then it's through customs and passport control with a couple of hours left until the plane is due to depart. Time for breakfast. Full English... (sausage, bacon, egg, beans, tomato, mushroom, little fried potatoes and toast - plus a coffee) yum!
This leg of my journey takes me to Istanbul, Turkey. Turkish airlines hand out pieces of Turkish Delight to all the passengers on board (delicious), and as we take off I settle down to listen to some music and read my book - Rick Wakeman's 'Grumpy Old Rock Star and Other Wondrous Stories'. It's a great read and one that I will be dipping into again.
The flight is pretty smooth and we touch down in Istanbul at 17.00 they are two hours ahead of British Summertime so it's taken about four hours to get here. Istanbul Airport is big and busy... its also very warm. I'm not here long though as my next flight leaves in just over an hour.
Another smooth flight though not quite as much room as last time as the people next to me keep wanting to get up and sit down. I listen to my Ipod (Tom Hanks and then Francesca Simon @Simon_Francesca on Desert Island discs... I also watch Jack Black playing R.L. Stein in Goosebumps (a good fun film).
We touch down it Tashkent, Uzbekistan at 1.05 in the morning... (another two hours ahead of Great Britain so four hours ahead altogether. It takes quite a while to get through customs and passport control but I eventually meet the driver who is going to be dropping off at the hotel. A relief to know I don't have to make my own way there. By the time I get to my room, unpack and get into bed it's after three in the morning - my alarm is set for seven as I will need to get up, shower, have breakfast (cold meats, cheese, bread, olives and other delicious things) and meet the driver again... he has the unfortunate job of taking me to and from school all week. I love driving but wouldn't want to have had to drive myself this week. Drivers in Tashkent have 'an interesting' way of navigating the roads so I was glad of his expertise.
It's been raining heavily during the night and some of the roads have huge puddles - some very deep ones too - but this doesn't slow anyone down and we plough on through busy traffic towards the school's upper campus.As soon as I arrive in school I'm made very welcome by everyone I meet... all the children know I'm coming and everyone says hello, shakes my hand or waves... I've never had such a friendly welcome before. Right away I know that I'm going to like it here.
That day is the start of Book Week and everyone gathers in the auditorium for a fun assembly and book quiz. Almost everyone is wearing their pyjamas and carrying a cuddly toy and their favourite book. It's great to see that all of the teachers have their favourite books too (and pyjamas). The teacher's show their favourite books and tell everyone a bit about them... a great way to get children interested in reading is showing how interested in reading you are too. I have the copy of Flat Stanley with me that I had when I was in Primary School and tell everyone a bit about it.
I love the handy seats in on of the libraries...
I'm in school all week and it is a great experience. I get to share stories with everyone, talk about what I do as an author and also try and show everyone how I come up with ideas for stories. Everyone is keen, interested and eager to talk about their favourite books and to show me what they have been doing in class.
As it's Book Week, every class has decorated their classroom doors with a book theme, and they are fantastic. Here's just a few of them.
Above you can see Anthony Brown's Café door and David Walliams' Billionaire Boy and below is pre Nursery's Dear Zoo (the boxes oven up just like in the book to reveal the animal that's inside. there are lots of other great doors and I will post pictures of those later in the week.
Unfortunately, I didn't really get chance for a good look round Tashkent while I was there as I was so busy in school (and so tired afterwards) but I did go out for a nice meal one evening. One thing that strikes me about the city is how green it is, how relaxed it feels and how friendly everyone is. This view from the back of the hotel will give you an idea of how green the city is...
The buildings are a mixture of old and new which gives the city a lot of character... Here's another view from my hotel window. It was roasting out there but thankfully there was air-conditioning in my room so I could keep nice and cool.Even though I spend the whole week with everyone it's amazing how quickly the time flies by. On Friday morning I'm up at 5am (1 o'clock in the morning in Britain) so I can shower and head downstairs ready to be taken to Tashkent airport to start my journey home. At Istanbul airport I have an hour or so to wait for my next flight so stop off to buy some Turkish Delight to take home with me...
It's another long flight back home so I read Harlen Coben's excellent thriller 'Fool Me Once', watched Kung Fu Panda 2, listened to lots of music and more Desert Island Discs on my Ipod - Stephen King, Dawn French, Jack Dee, Stephen Fry - and listened to Rhod Gilbert and Alan Davies talk about the way they write their comedy. By the time I got home it was about 5 o'clock and I was worn out... It had been a long day.
I had a fantastic week with everyone at the British School of Tashkent - I made lots of new friends their and had lots of fun. Huge thanks to everyone for looking after me and making me feel so very welcome. Hopefully I will be able to go back again... Take care everyone - have fun reading, and keep in touch.

Conceived as a forum for the entire discipline, its first edition covers a range of subjects: Italian Romanesque architecture, a critical opinion on Old Masters' exhibitions led by connoisseurship, French and German 19th century painting, Ed Ruscha's photography, as well as installation art by Paul Thek. One paper investigates the potential of Ernst Cassirer's philosophy of perception for the visual studies; another describes in terms of system theory the museum as a place of learning and experience.
Besides publishing new and innovative research, the journal offers a forum for the reassessment of elder scholarly literature, i.e. texts that initially did not meet with the reception they deserved, or those that offer new perspectives today. The rubric ›Reconsidered‹ starts off with Heinrich Wölfflin's Prolegomena zu einer Psychologie der Architektur of 1886. His analogy between the human body and architectural form may be of interest to modern art history, which places the body at the center of its interest. Also, the ›spatial turn‹ might profitably relate to this short text.
Under the rubric ›Theses and Points of View‹, Kunstgeschichte. Open Peer Reviewed Journal wishes to give space for debates, particularly on the current status of art history and on perspectives for its future development. To begin with, we will soon publish the contributions to the panel on the »Historiography of Art History«, which will be held on the occasion of the 30th Deutscher Kunsthistorikertag (Biannual German Art History Convention) in Marburg on March 27, 2009.
Kunstgeschichte. Open Peer Reviewed Journal is committed to the principles of public peer review. Papers submitted to the e-journal are first put up as ›Discussion Papers‹ for public peer assessment over a period of six months. After this stage, the authors have the option of revising their work according to the public comments. Only then will the definitive papers be published as ›Journal Articles‹. By proceeding thus we capitalize on the specific possibilities of the internet: It allows scholars to interact immediately, and to contribute comments, criticism, and additional information online to the papers published in Kunstgeschichte. Open Peer Reviewed Journal. We would like to underline that all comments will be furnished with a proper URL so as to be citable as independent publications.
Finally, the format of online publishing gives readers different kinds of access to the papers: searches may be conducted by authors, epochs, sort of text, or publication date. Moreover, the journal offers full-text search, i.e. the search by names or keywords.
We wish you exciting and inspiring readings, and we look forward to your suggestions, wishes, and comments.http://www.kunstgeschichte-ejournal.net/

Editor's Notes
I received several comments on the article, "Points or Times: Which Method Should I Use?" in Volume 6, Issue 11 - February 21, 2007.
From Mike Ruhl:
I just read your Feature Article on Points vs. Heat Times, and I'd like to point out something that is probably obvious to you, but wasn't really accounted for in the article itself.
If you had advanced just 7 cars to your finals, instead of 10, then you could have run a perfect round-robin, in which every car runs once in each lane and runs once against every other car (assuming a 4-lane track). Your son's car probably would have finished 3rd in this case, instead of 4th.
This is how we run our Grand Prix. In the interest of time, our qualifying rounds are imperfect round-robins where each car runs once in each lane. We have as many heats as there are cars. We track points, and the top 7 cars advance to the finals, as described above.
If the qualifying round produces more than 7 cars tied for the top 7 places, then we have a run-off from the bottom up to determine the 7 top cars. With anywhere from 40 to 60 cars in the qualifying round, we usually end up with 10-12 cars in the top 7 places. Most often, we'll have one, two, or three cars at the top, with 3 or 4 tied for 3rd, 4th, and (sometimes) 5th place.
Let's say that after our qualifying round we end up with a distinct 1st place car, two cars tied for 2nd, 3 cars tied for 3rd, and 4 cars tied for 4th (actually pretty close to reality most years). That's a total of 10 cars. In order to end up with 7 finalists, we'll take the 7 cars that tied for 3rd and 4th places, and run them in a perfect round-robin to come up with 4 finalists. These 4 will run against the top 3 from the qualifying round in the finals.
The only problem is that some cars end up running more heats than others, but no one has ever complained about it. And some years we've ended up with 8 or 9 tied for 3rd and 4th, 3 or 4 tied for 2nd and 3rd. I keep copies of racing charts for every potential outcome, so we can plug them in as needed. But on average, the scenario described above is what we usually see.
From Stan Pope:
Cory Young and I have often abbreviated the Perfect-N chart variations as PN (Perfect-N), CPN (Complementary Perfect-N), and PPN (Partial Perfect-N).
Your case demonstrates the problem inherent in the selection of finalists. PN and CPN charts are relatively rare; PPN are almost common. PN has both lane equality and opponent equality. PPN by definition narrowly misses full opponent equality.
In selecting finalists, the number of finalists is important so that the more accurate PN or CPN charts can be used. Ten finalists requires either an exorbitant number of rounds or at least a 9-lane track (fit that one in your budget!) to run a PN chart. So, I recommend either a 7-car or a 13-car finals chart since these have PN and CPN solutions on 3 and 4 lane tracks. (A single "bye" in either of these does not affect the results, so those charts are applicable to car counts of 6, 7, 12, or 13.)
The nature of PPN charts limits how accurately PPN can rank the top cars. But PPN is excellent at ranking the N best cars among the highest scoring 2*N places. So, the number of finalists needs to be about twice the number of places that need to be determined.
Points racing has another problem that occurs when the cars are more equal than the lanes. If heat results are "true to form", PN and CPN charts will usually produce ties in the final standings for these cars. Unless you can find two lanes on the track that are more equal than the cars, the tie might have to be left to stand or be broken with a coin toss.
From Ed Phillips:
Your article shows a bias towards "Points" as evidenced by the minimal number of advantages in "Times", and many more "disadvantages". ... I really don't care if someone prefers "Points" over "Times", but I believe this article could unfairly bias someone trying to figure out which is better for their pack. My view (somewhat also stated in the article) is that it really depends on what is important to your pack. Number 1 is fairness, which as you know double elimination is sorely lacking. Number 2, for us at least, is how can you keep everyone interested for the full race, so how long it takes is also important. ...
(Editor's Note: I do prefer "Points", and I guess that did translate into some bias in the article)

10 Canning and Preserving Projects to Do This Long Weekend
With Labor Day being the unofficial end of summer, it's inevitable that you're feeling a little bummed out. We are too! Just like always, our favorite season has come and gone in a flash, and soon it will be taking its incredible produce with it. So here's the plan: Instead of sulking, seize the opportunity that's given to you with that extra day off this week to bottle up summer's sunshine for later. Here are 10 of our most favorite ways to preserve all of those tomatoes, berries, stone fruit, and herbs.
All the Tomatoes
Just imagine how much your future self will be thanking your current self when you have the taste of summer waiting for you in the fall and winter when there is nothing but mealy, flavorless tomatoes on grocery store shelves. Fill your farmers market bag with as many as you can carry and preserve them every way possible.
- How To Dry Tomatoes in the Oven
- Rotel-Style Tomatoes
- How To Make Tomato Paste
- How To Make Basic Tomato Sauce with Fresh Tomatoes
Now is definitely the time to fill cans upon cans with homemade jam, while berries and stone fruit are in abundance. The best part is that even if you're nervous about traditional canning, you can use the freezer to preserve it instead.
Other Pantry Favorites
Beyond things like tomato sauce and jam, there are plenty of other great items to preserve right now. Harvest that basil in your garden to make pesto, or make dill pickles to enjoy alongside sandwiches through the rest of the year.

RRD H-Flight Hydrofoil and RRD Dolphin1
Introducing the RRD H-Flight freeride hydrofoil and the RRD Dolphin1 Kite foil board
We want to approach kite foiling the most natural and easy way to provide riders from all kinds of levels with the best possible experience. From our experience most of the new foil riders start foiling by borrowing a friends' hi -performance hydrofoil and always have a very hard time. Because of this difficulty, some may feel like this is an impossible sport.
The best way to get into this discipline is with the proper equipment. After a year of extensive testing we have developed a hybrid foil that incorporates a strong, durable, cost effective 90cm aluminium mast paired with a full carbon fuselage and changeable rear and front wings.
To reduce the learning curve and make Kitefoiling accessible to everyone, we also offer two different additional mast lengths to the standard mast as an optional 'RRD Aviation Academy' package for schools and beginners;
The standard 90cm 'Full Flight' mast, which is included, and the optional 40cm 'Take Off' and/or 65cm 'Touch & Go' masts which are available as spare parts for your first flights.
One of the most important things is having a wing and fuselage that allows the perfect balance in between your feet. This balance will provide a progressive entrance to foiling, not a difficult one. The front wing, fuselage, and rear wing, enable the foil to rise out of the water progressively and smoothly at the right speed, increase stability, and allow it to easy go down-wind which is essential. Starting with a shorter mast length will also aid to the progressive entrance into kite foiling.
Our really short, 40cm mast ('Take-off' level), is designed to develop the necessary skills to come out of the water, to get the feeling of a foil under your feet, and the way you position your body on to the board. The reaction to the foil is also exactly the same as the full height mast and will allow you to come out of the water, but not at an intimidating height. Once this stage is mastered, it is time to move to a new level, which is the 65 cm mast that allows more of a lift above the water.
The 65cm MAST ('Touch & Go' level) provides the full foil feel for the first time without being too intimidating. This stage of the progression process can last anywhere from 2 days to some weeks. Once comfortable with the foil in many different conditions without issue, it is time to progress to the full length 90cm mast.
The 90 cm 'Full Flight' mast has the perfect flex and stiffness that is very forgiving.
The behaviour of our foil is very predictable and reliable. We are proud to introduce a new result of our non-stop research and development team to the market.
. Comes standard with the 90cm mast
. Optional 'RRD Aviation Academy' package: 40 and/or 65 cm mast
. Lightweight, strong and durable Aluminium mast and plate
. Pre-preg Hybrid Carbon wings and fuselage
. 4 hole adjustable mast plate
. Comes standard with bag, nuts, manual and basic tool
We developed each foil component on the basis of the corporation of technology in Aluminium design and pre-preg Carbon. So, we wanted to have a combination of these composite materials to create a very reliable, lightweight, but still strong and affordable foil system. Our hydrofoil weight is all together 3.9 kg which is a very well weighted foil for a competitive price level as compared to the full carbon foils.
We have worked with very different technologies, and tried to create a lighter foil which allows us to still be able to sell it for an affordable price.
It's a perfect free ride foil. It's a really easy hydrofoil to learn on that you can use to go really fast to the next level, where it is still loads of fun to use as a progressive freerider.
One of the scariest parts when you go foiling is actually going downwind, with our hydrofoil you will be quickly in full control. You really want to try out something that will never scare you. This is particularly our aim with this foil.
We have decided to go for a 4 hold plate on the mast, because it is the safest system. With 4 solid screws you can also move the foil back and forth, depending on your skills and level.
An Aluminum mast is a monetary and lightweight solution that gave us the possibility to develop a very thin profile mast, that is heavily reinforced inside and has a structural 3 stringers profile.
The Dolphin1 is a full composite board with a wood deck and bottom, it has PVC reinforcement under the heel area and a special shaped full concave deck. It allows your feet to be completely pointed down towards the nose and the middle part of the board. A correct foot and legs position is what you want to have when you foil. The rails have a special pronounced tucked under edge bevel, which reduces the impact when you come down from height.
So touch downs are very smooth when the nose touches the water and allows you to to quickly get up and go again again instead of nosedive. At the same time it has a nice and thin volume that helps the board to stay light; all these characteristics are perfect for a freeride shape. The size is 160 x 52 cm, so it is balanced for riders of any type of height and depending on your skills and preferences you can have around 10 cm of footstrap adjustment in the front and in the back, next to the different options of where to place the mast on the bottom.
PVC reinforcement
Comes with 3 adjustable RRD/Dakine straps
4 hole adjustable mast plate inserts

Lonely Island: Volume II in the Perdita Series
Marged Brice's next series of journal entries (1900-1901) have her travelling to Montreal and Europe, as well as a remote lighthouse on Lonely Island.
At Lonely Island a former light-keeper has been arrested for corpse-robbing (chronicled by Marged in Perdita) and has been replaced by a couple with a newborn baby. Troubled by his daughter's anxiety and depression over what he assumes is her failed engagement with the painter George Stewart, Marged's father agrees to let her stay and take care of the new light-keeper's ailing wife. Marged finds herself nursing a young woman who has fiercely rejected her infant in order to punish her brutish husband and foil his sexual advances. As tensions mount, Marged is stranded on the island during a terrific storm, along with several unsavory shipwreck survivors.
The unexpected arrival of both George Stewart and Dr. Andrew Reid exposes the dark medical past of one of the shipwreck survivors, raising the spectre of murder and insanity.

Dr. Brian McLaren
Dr Brian McLaren B.V.Sc., M.App.Sc. was a clinical scientist and veterinary surgeon, and the highest qualified veterinary acupuncturist in Australia with postgraduate qualifications in veterinary and human acupuncture.
Brian's pioneering research in the early 1990s led to the development of an advanced form of acupuncture using light rather than needles to stimulate recognised acupuncture points.
This led to the development of a torch transmitting a safe, low frequency red light (with accompanying manuals) for assisting treatment of a range of conditions or ailments in people and animals.
Many of Dr. McLaren's academic papers are available on our Resources page.
Rob McLaren
Inspired by his father and his efforts over the past two decades developing a simple and powerfully effective system for the temporary relief of pain, Rob McLaren focused on introducing the modernized system in 2010 to others around the world and gave workshops in the USA and Australia.
Eva Servais
At the end of 2016 we continue our mission and the task is passed on to me.
As I have always been interested in alternative and complementary medicine and since Photonic Therapy saved my life, I became a passionate student of this therapy, Acupuncture and TCM.
I became a Qualified Photonic Practitioner and have been teaching workshops in Europe since 2009.
My goal has become to bring out a cheap and small torch, so anybody can buy it and take it everywhere with them and we can all torch some pain away and make a better world for all. Let's stop the suffering !

In this series, I'd like to share some thoughts on the process of songwriting. I also will mention some tools that writers should use during that process. Every creative person has a unique approach to what they do; however, there are some basic principles that we should all apply.
I believe that songwriting can be broken down into three important ingredients:
The three are not usually equal for every song. But every song is birthed from a place where all three are present. Inspiration is a catalyst for creativity; Creativity is a stream that flows in real time, keeping you moving with your ideas; Craftsmanship is the refining process that improves and completes those ideas.
The common problem for most writers is execution. People don't write regularly or finish songs because their system for writing (or lack thereof) isn't facilitating these three key ingredients. For each of them to be effective you'll need the right systems and tools in place to be productive.
Effective songwriters will primarily need tools in the following categories:
- Tools for capturing
- Tools for researching
- Tools for refining
- Tools for archiving
In the coming days I will highlight tools in each of these areas that can help expedite your songwriting. I also invite the thoughts and comments of others if you're a songwriter.
Don't hesitate to add your ideas and the methods you use to the mix…
Part One: Inspiration, Creativity, Craftsmanship
Part Two: CAPTURE!!!
Part Three: Do Your Research
Part Four: Refining (Skip this at your own risk…)
Part Five: Create a System
Part Six: Application

Current Size: 100%
The East Dubuque District Library was formed in 1937 as a WPA project. It was a city library at that time. In 1997, the library went to referendum to become a district library. The referendum passed and more than doubled the population served by the library. The library began to serve this new population out of its old and very small building on the corner of Sinsinawa and Wisconsin Avenue. In September of 2007 the library moved to its temporary location on Wall Street. A year and half later the library again moved. We now enjoy a permanent home at 122 Wisconsin. The library currently serves a population of 4459 and has two grade schools and one high school in our district.

12 Questions You Can Only Answer If You're From North Carolina
Being from North Carolina, people will ask you plenty of questions. About places to see, sights to explore, mountains to climb. But any transplant can tell you Charlotte is a booming metropolis and to definitely eat at [insert fancy restaurant here].

In Vino Veritas: The Truth About Homemade WinePosted: August 9, 2016 Filed under: Beverage, Wine | Tags: homemade wine, Italian Traditions, Wine Leave a comment
In South Philadelphia, bottles of homemade wine flow freely as hostess gifts and gracious thank yous from friends and family. Most of them have three things in common:
- The gifter thinks highly of you to share their precious stash.
- You must be incredibly grateful for their generous gift and enjoy it, or at least pretend to love it.
- It will almost certainly be more palatable as salad dressing than wine.
Jules Esposito, Jr. is determined to change the perception that homemade wine is nothing more than glorified vinegar. Jules is our cousin, and far from the average twenty-something. By day, he works alongside his family at Esposito's Porchetta (1627 S. 10th St., Philadelphia, PA 19148). You may have enjoyed their sandwiches at any number of festivals in the area. In his free time, he crafts delicious homemade wines. Read the rest of this entry »
Eric Miller – The Vintner's ApprenticePosted: November 1, 2012 Filed under: Beverage, Special Pages | Tags: brandywine valley, different types of wine, wine enthusiasts Leave a comment
I had the opportunity last Saturday to chat with Eric Miller – author of 'The Vintner's Apprentice' and lover of all things wine. He was here at Fante's discussing wine, signing copies of his book, and chatting with customers about…well, everything! Here are some highlights from our conversation:
What can blog readers learn from your book?
The book isn't some technical in-depth and serious text book. It's for people who are curious about wine, who love to drink wine and want to know WHY wines taste the way they do. It was very important at the beginning of writing the book that it appealed to all types of wine enthusiasts. Sure, there is technical information in the book for those that want that in-depth information, but also has interesting information about different types of wine, the grapes used for different wines, and again, why they taste the way they do.
Home Soda MakersPosted: August 9, 2012 Filed under: Beverage | Tags: bottled beverages, bottles and cans Leave a comment
Let's start this week's edition of Toque Tips with a little game: What ties these three things together? Plants absorb it, human beings release it, and it's an essential ingredient to any refreshing carbonated beverage. Did you say Carbon Dioxide?
With Sodastream's carbonating system, you can harbor the scientific power of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) right in your kitchen to create your own sparkling concoctions. This easy-to-use contraption uses a specially designed CO2 cartridge to quickly and easily carbonate water.
If seltzer is your go-to beverage, your drink is ready after one push of the button! But if you're like me and prefer a fruity flavor or cola taste, it's easy to add some extra zing to your drink with Sodastream syrups. For more at-home fun, try your hand at making different flavor mixtures. A personal favorite of mine is rhubarb syrup.
Summer Drinks and CocktailsPosted: June 7, 2012 Filed under: Beverage Leave a comment
Our anticipation for the hot summer days conjures visions of freshly-squeezed lemonade, sweet sun-brewed tea, and refreshing cocktails like mojitos, mimosas, and so forth. A full glass, a comfy chair in the sun, stylish shades, and a good book – these are the things summer dreams are made of.
Squeeze a few lemons, brew a quart of tea, and (if you're up for it) add a little vodka or rum. Preparing summer drinks can be as easy as a summer breeze.
Whether you're throwing a backyard barbeque or just wanting our own little slice of heaven, we have a couple special drinks in mind for you, and some handy tools.

Take a good hard look at your weekly shopping list. How many fruits and vegetables are on there? If not very many, you're not alone. While a recent survey found that Americans are better at it than we were five years ago, many of us still aren't eating enough fresh fruits and vegetables. One way to introduce more fresh foods into your diet is through juicing.
Freshly juiced fruits and veggies are a steadily growing trend in this country, and with the many associated health benefits it's easy to see why. Juicing can improve your cardiovascular and heart health, detoxify your liver, improve your immune system, increase your energy levels, and more. Juicing alone won't instantly make you healthier or drop twenty pounds, as is sometimes claimed, but it can be an important component of improving your overall health when incorporated into an active lifestyle.
Did you know that juicing is nearly as healthy as eating whole fruits and vegetables?
Macchinetta MadnessPosted: April 13, 2012 Filed under: Beverage, Coffee Leave a comment
Espresso can seem a bit complicated to a beginner. Many of us simply walk into the corner coffee shop, order a $5 brew, and wander out still wallowing in ignorance as to what "espresso" actually means.
There is a simple, fast, and inexpensive way to make espresso at home: the stovetop espresso maker, commonly called "macchinetta" or "moka".
Coffee drinkers have taken much more interest in sourcing, roasting and brewing in recent years. Through all of that, the classic macchinetta has remained widely popular – even if it was inspired by a washing machine. This elegant coffee maker features a compact iconic design, takes little energy to produce coffee, and is very simple to operate.
And it's tiny; anyone who has lived in a small city apartment can attest to the importance of counter space. Stovetop espresso makers are probably the most cost- and space-efficient way to achieve flavorful espresso at home.

David McDonald Speaks About OSI Success
In a current meeting that David McDonald, the leader of the OSI Group, did, he discusses the greater part of the open doors that have come up for the OSI Group and the ones that truly made a difference the most for him and for the general population who work with organization.
It has been an incredible time for progress for OSI and David McDonald has been at the front line of everything by ensuring that he is furnishing individuals with the open doors that they have to ensure that the nourishment that they are persuading will be the correct kind for everybody. It is something that has made the organization more fruitful and something that has enabled more individuals to have the capacity to get what they can out of the diverse plans of action that they are a piece of. For David McDonald OSI Group, it is something that he has possessed the capacity to do as effectively as could be expected under the circumstances.
Notwithstanding the way that things have not generally been simple for the OSI Group, David McDonald, the President of OSI Industries has ensured that he is giving the organization the greater part of the choices that they have to accomplish more with the things that they are making. It has permitted him the opportunity to ensure that things will be better and that they will get what they require out of various circumstances. On account of David McDonald and the open doors that he has realized for OSI Compny's work, there is significantly more that the organization can do to help the organizations that they work with
Regardless of what the OSI Group does later on, there is a great deal that they have done previously. For instance, giving the sustenance that was required for the Beijing Olympics was something that enabled them to be extremely effective. It was additionally something that allowed them to get what they could out of various circumstances. Because of the OSI Group, the Beijing Olympics sustenance division had no dissensions to it. This was something that was practically unfathomable and something that OSI could achieve.

"Where can you see tomorrow's work today? The answer is The Arches."
The Guardian
Through theatre, performance, visual art, dance and creative learning the Arches' artistic programme celebrates the brave and the new.
Producing and presenting risk-taking work from local and international artists and companies, the building has boasted performances over the past two years from Derevo, The TEAM and Taylor Mac, hosted the National Review of Live Art and New Territories festivals and seen blistering performances from boundary-pushing artists and companies such as John Moran, Adrian Howells, Ontroerend Goed and Quarantine as part of 2010's BEHAVIOUR festival, our annual celebration of the live experience.
The Arches is also Scotland's leading provider of support for emergent artists and performance practitioners, providing a year-long programme of opportunities including Artist in Residence programmes and our two annual awards, Platform 18: New Directions and the Brick Award, as well as showcasing raw work from homegrown talent such as Nic Green and Rob Drummond in Arches LIVE, our annual festival of brave new work.
Our dedicated Creative Learning programme offers even further-reaching opportunities for development across a broad range of social groups, with events ranging from urban music production course Tigerstyle and the newly launched Arches Community Choir, to mentoring schemes, professional development projects and off-site performance work with diverse social groups.
Words from Jackie Wylie, The Arches' Artistic Director, following the tragic death of Adrian Howells:
"All at The Arches are devastated by the loss of Adrian Howells this week. He was our Artist in Residence and The Arches was his creative home. But more than that, he was a dear friend and companion in life to many of us here.
So many would say that there truly was no one like him, who personified love, generosity and the deepest type of empathy and desire to understand those lucky enough to have met him. With great humour he was able to create an instant connection with anyone he encountered. He was able to translate this desire to nurture and connect into his performance practice and in doing so leaves behind not only an incredible and influential body of work but a multitude of audience members across the world who have in some way been transformed by these encounters.
He supported, encouraged and was at the heart of an entire community of artists in Glasgow who will miss him terribly."

TransCanada is commencing legal actions against the United States following
the Keystone XL pipeline project denial.
TransCanada recently announced that it would be entering into legal actions
with the U.S. over its denial of KXL. The Canadian oil giant announced
that it has filed a
Notice of Intent to initiate a claim under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA).
Additionally, the oil company also said it has filed suit in
Houston's U.S. Federal Court. This lawsuit alleges that President Obama's denial of the Keystone
XL pipeline project goes beyond the power the U.S. Constitution affords him.
According to TransCanada's news release, the U.S. State Department
acknowledged that a denial of KXL was not based on the project's
merits, since the State Department concluded that it would not significantly
increase global greenhouse gas emissions. Rather, it asserts, the denial
was founded on perceptions of climate change.

High Strength with Low Density
Typical cast densities range from 350-1600 kg/m3,with compressive strengths of 0.2 to 12+ MPa respectively. With its low density, foam concrete imposes little vertical stress on the substructure, a particularly important issue in areas sensitive to settlement. Due to its low density, foam concrete is a viable solution for reducing loading on burden soil. Additionally, foam concrete is less susceptible to differential settlement. Heavier density foam concrete with higher strengths is produced and used for specialty applications.
Well Bonded Body
Foam concrete forms a rigid, well-bonded body after gelling (hydrating); thus, it is effectively a freestanding structure on its own and does not impose lateral loads on adjacent structures. The material can be constructed into various formations and profiles through forming and stepping of successive lifts. Foam concrete can also be machined to create a desired effect.
No Compaction Required
In some cases mechanical compaction can be difficult and unsafe due to limited or inaccessible areas. In excavations with poor soils that are not easily compacted. Foam concrete forms a 100% compacted foundation over the soft soil. With compaction of conventional backfill against retaining structures or deep foundations, traditional methods can cause damage or movement to the adjacent structure in these instances foam concrete is a great solution.
High Fluidity
Foam Concrete pumps easily and relatively low pressure via hoses over long distances. For applications over 1000 meters such as pipe in tunnel backfill, the slurry is pumped through the pipe with the pre-formed foam injected near the point of placement. The material is naturally self-levelling and fills the smallest voids, cavities and seams. When placing in excavations, foam concrete conforms to every sub grade.
Rapid Installation
High volume production and placement (via hoses) of foam concrete is a continuous operation from the mobile central batching plant located on site. Since the foam is the largest volume contributor in foam concrete, limited deliveries of the raw materials are required, which results in minimal disruption to the construction site. With our patented high volume production equipment Foam Concrete Limited can produce and place foam concrete on location at rates of 100 cubic meters per operating hour over distances of 800 linear meters from the batching plant.
Ease of Removal
Foam concrete can be designed for specific strengths to allow for the future removal for maintenance of utilities or excavations. Sometimes excavations of CLSM (cement lime sand mortar) or other flow able fill material can be susceptible to unpredictable gains in strength due to delivery and production methods. Foam concrete is produced on site to exact requirements, and can be easily excavated with common construction equipment.

Here's a quick secret from Charlie Munger. It's about buying stocks with patience. It's about waiting rather than joining in.
In 2014, Munger had a private meeting with Wall Street journalist Jason Zweig. Several incredible insights emerged from their talk. But one comment really stood out.
The tendency for most people is to simply buy stocks. At any given moment. But that's not what Munger does. He actually has a secret for you. But it requires you to sit on your hands and wait... and wait... and wait... It's why he and Warren Buffett bought Wells Fargo at $8 share in 2009 and investing $5 billion into Goldman Sachs during the Financial Crisis:
"One person said to me, 'I have a list of 300 potentially attractive stocks, and I constantly watch them, waiting for just one of them to become cheap enough to buy.' Well, that's a reasonable thing to do. But how many people have that kind of discipline? Not one in 100."
"It's waiting that helps you as an investor, and a lot of people just can't stand to wait. If you didn't get the deferred-gratification gene, you've got to work very hard to overcome that." - Charlie MungerHere's a thought experiment to think about, or even potentially something to test: what if you had $100,000 and only invested that money during market crashes? Imagine how much that would all be worth today. But do you have the patience to wait 25, 50, or 75 years to buy only during major crashes?

On 27th of October, in a session organised by the Centre for the History of the Book, James Hamilton, the Research Principal of the WS Society, introduced David Laing and his history as the Principal Librarian of the Signet Library. With a strong background in the book trade and bibliography, Laing was already a leading figure in Edinburgh's intellectual elite as a member of the Bannatyne Club and the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. After his attempt, and subsequent failure, to become Librarian to the Faculty of Advocates, Laing accepted a role as the Principal Librarian of the Signet Library, employed by the Society of Writers of the Signet. His appointment set a precedent in the Society history – never before had a non-lawyer been employed to manage their collections. It would set Laing on the collision course that followed and open the door towards the controversy and conflicts that followed him in his later years. His career and its impact on the Signet Library opens up a lot of questions regarding the past, present and future role of the librarian and how it could affect the way we, as scholars of materiality, "read" a library and its collections.
If a Leaf Falls Press: Sam Riviere on appropriation and micropublishing in the poetry sector
On the 13th of October, Sam Riviere, former Poet-in-Residence at the University of Edinburgh, presented his work as the editor of If a Leaf Falls Press, a micropublishing house working with found and appropriated materials. Fittingly, the name If a Leaf Falls is itself an appropriation of a Lil Wayne lyric (the full lyric, from 2011's "The Motto," reads "And if a leaf fall, put some weed on that bitch") which has come into modern Twitter parlance as a way of referring to something insignificant that is blown out of proportion. With the addition of "Press," Riviere hopes also to evoke images of pressing a leaf, thereby preserving something that would have otherwise been fleeting.
Digitisation – Going Forward
Back in January, my partners and I sent around a survey to the postgraduate students in the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures to see what the student community knew about the digital materials they were using. As it turned out, while an overwhelming number of the respondents said that they used digital materials, an underwhelming number knew anything about the process of digitisation and how digital materials come to be maintained by the library. Over the past few weeks, we've researched digitisation and put out some blog posts to explain some of the finer points of the process, and a short video is forthcoming.
Digitisation: Maintaining Digital Collections
Have you ever lost parts of your life (e.g. photos, documents, essays, etc.) because your computer let out its last sigh and shut down, not giving you a chance to save your work and memories – or to at least say goodbye? If not, either you are unbelievably lucky, or thoughtful enough to have taken preventive measures to avoid this heartbreaking experience. If you have got burnt once or twice, you probably eventually acquired the habit of zealously protecting your files by backing them up on several devices and online platforms. As computers entered our daily lives over the past few decades, most regular computer users developed strategies to safeguard their digital records from the whims of chance. Fewer are aware, however, of two other threats – the processes of decay and obsolescence.
Digitisation: Why do we digitise?
There are many reasons why digital surrogates for physical items are made. Some digitisation projects, like the PhD. thesis digitisation project being undertaken by the University of Edinburgh, represent a sustained effort to create a focused collection of digitised materials designed for long-term access and regular use. Certain digitisation work involves the creation of digital surrogates of items specifically requested by staff or students. The team at the Digital Imaging Unit (DIU) are constantly processing requests like these, all of which require specialist skills, equipment, and a significant investment of time and money. Often digitisation is undertaken as a way of promoting heritage collections. The University of Edinburgh, and all institutions with printed and digital collections, hold items which are central to their identity. For example, the digitised iconic collections of the University of Edinburgh include Sir Isaac Newton's diagrams in a David Gregory manuscript, an Aberdeen Breviary, and collection of Robert Burns poetry manuscripts. These items possess significant historic, cultural, and research significance, and their digital surrogates aid in building an international academic identity. In addition to cultivating an academic 'brand', The University of Edinburgh is constantly expanding its electronic resources through a series of ongoing digitisation efforts aimed at preserving, sustaining, protecting, and integrating the collections.
