After worrying about our bags being overweight with all of our food and clothes for the next 16 days, the man at the counter did not even weigh our bags. They did not even charge us at check-in for them. So, hopefully they make it to where they need to go! After Deb and I bought our caffeine for the night, we boarded the plane at 11:55 P.M. All went well and we left right around 12:35 A.M., to begin our 6 hour journey to Anchorage, Alaska. As the plane loaded, we came to realize that we were the only two people in our row, so we were able to have the middle seat open and spread out.
Despite the heavy turbulence in the air, we were both got around three to four hours of sleep. This was a blessing considering the future time change we were going to confront and the flight connection. The flight into Anchorage was beautiful and we learned fast that their "nighttime" was still light. CRAZY!
We decided to get some breakfast and sit down and look at the view outside of the window until our boarding time at 6:30. Little did we know that there was heavy fog where our plane was coming from which caused us a delay…wait no make that a cancelation of our morning flight. We had to reschedule for a later flight at 6:00 P.M. As we were waiting in line we met a guy who is going out to fish for the summer. He came from California and turned out to be meeting a bunch of Christian men to fish with all summer. He had to spend two nights in the airport without any family or friends. Wow, God works in mysterious ways we were able to take him out to lunch and a walk around Anchorage. He says he was so thankful he met us because he was starting to get frustrated.
Finally when 6:30 rolled around we were able to board our plane and take off for King Salmon. From there we found John and Carrol who picked us up from the airport. We were then taken to the KAKN radio station, which is where we would sleep every night. Thank you for all of the prayers! God Bless.
—Caeley and Deb

South Africa To Add 7,000 MW Of Renewable Power To Grid By Mid-2016
South Africa to add 7,000 MW of renewable power to grid by mid-2016. PHOTO: Wikipedia
South Africa will connect 7,000 megawatts (MW) of renewable power to its grid by mid this year when the first 47 projects become fully operational, the energy minister said on Wednesday.
Africa's most industrialised country has turned to solar and wind power to plug electricity shortages, Tina Joemat-Pettersson told parliament. She also reiterated that the planned nuclear expansion would be "corruption free".
South Africa hopes to install 9,600 megawatts of nuclear power in the next 15 years to address chronic electricity shortages but the cost of the project estimated at about $100 billion has raised budgetary concerns.

in 5 hours i will (hopefully) be going through my final exam. in 5 hours I will be going throught my (hopefully) final. this should be the final exam. Well until next time. But it should be my final exam this time around. Finally, the conclusion of my studies so far. Or is it? What if I fail?
Seriously. I am terrified.
I'm spending the next few hours re-reading my thesis, and honestly, I am glad I did not linger on it too much before. The only thing I can see are the mistakes, the simplistic approach, the frail, awkward logical connexions. Surely even a 5 year old could have done it better. Since I sent in the three copies of my magnum opus, I haven't had any feedback from my correctors, and I haven't dared ask. I was just too mortified. Why on earth did I ask my two favourite lecturers to do it? How could I force upon them the tedious task of reading my dreadful ramblings in halting pidgin German? I never dared ask what they thought about it because I didn't want to hear how dissapointed they might be. "Really Alice, how could you send us this. Is this really all you have learned these past two years? Aaaah the disappointment! Ah the shame!"
Am I being overdramatic? Surely if it were this bad they would have told me. They wouldn't let me come all the way down to Bavaria to tut me in their office and say: "Well, too bad. Try again"

The Wife and I got in a game of SP2 last week. I figured I would share this game even if it is lacking in the action department. The interesting thing about SP2 is that sometimes no one raises the alarm and you get there in time to watch the rebels make off with the fodder. Enjoy!Phil
Nice report regardless. The card system does have its drawbacks.
WHAT! Your wife games with you? Awesome.
Fantastic looking game too.

Spring Break 2015 continued with a trip to the Academic Commons in the Occidental College Library. The Commons is a nexus of transformed spaces, resources, services and programs focused on sustaining an intellectual teaching and learning community at Occidental for the 21st Century.
The heart of the Library Commons is the Center for Academic Excellence & Center for Digital Liberal Arts.
We had stimulating conversations with Occidental's three leaders of Information Resources: James Uhrich, the Chief of Technology and Associate Vice President for Information Technology; Dan Chamberlain, the Associate Vice President and Director of the Center for Digital Liberal Arts, and Bob Kieft, the College Librarian. We met with the Dean and Vice President of Academic Affairs, the Associate Dean for the Curriculum, Director of the Writing Center, Undergraduate Research Center, Associate Dean of Research, Director of the Community Literacy Center, and the Center for Digital Liberal Arts staff.
Of note is the Global Crossroads project, a large-scale environmental installation media wall driven by content created within an accompanying web application. The project is exciting to Hampshire as it is a larger-scale version of our Magic Board, and has compelling curricular connections, as well as a repository for student and faculty generated content.
The Hampshire team learned a lot from these trips, and have returned to campus energized, and excited to work more on our plan. Stay tuned for more!

Q:What inspired you to be a massage therapist?
A: My inspiration to become a massage therapist was two-fold. The first being my oldest daughter was attending a massage therapy program and would come home everyday with new techniques and amazing information about how massage works with the body's natural healing processes. Her excitement was contagious. Secondly, being a nurse at the time, I saw the benefits touch had with my patients and their healing. I saw these benefits from caring for ill newborns and their distraught parents all the way through the final stages of the dying patient who can peacefully transition into death with just the slightest touch on their arm, back or brow as they are passing. The comfort massage and touch in general allows is astounding.
Q:How long have you been doing massage?
A: I have been a massage therapist for almost two years.
Q: What is your favorite thing about being an MT?
A: The thing I like most about being a massage therapist is passing on the knowledge I have with my clients and why they are feeling the way they are. Whether it is through education about the muscles that are giving them discomfort and how muscles somewhere else on their body could be the actual problem or the benefit massage is to their body, even something as simple as the need for drinking an adequate amount of water to keep their bodies hydrated and systems flushed. Education is so important to me and giving my clients the information they need to help their body heal itself through massage with no side effect is wonderful.
Q: What do you feel is the most challenging issue for massage therapists?
A: I feel there are several challenges for massage therapists. One of them is educating people so they will include massage as an important part of their weekly or monthly health program. Another is educating insurance companies so they include massage as a necessary addition to preventative care and adding it as a covered benefit to more insurance plans. Education on massage as more than just a luxury is important for individuals and insurance companies.
Q: What advice would you give to other MT's to help build their business?
A: I feel the best advice I could give another MT is to never stop learning, never stop trying new techniques that can give their practice and their studio that special advantage. Always work for the clients best interest and treat their clients as if it were themselves getting the massage. Because when you do that you will be more in tune with what your clients are in need of and how you can help them achieve their goals for their body, health and healing. And most importantly know where you want your business to go and never give up on getting it there. When your clients feel your passion for what you do, your advertising is taken care of...word of mouth is your businesses' best advertisement.

Investors Flock to Bond Funds As Stock Prices Continue Fall
After bonds emerged as the top-performing asset class last quarter, fixed-income mutual funds may be at risk of falling behind this quarter.
Sound familiar? That's because it's not much different from what many financial advisers were saying at the end of this year's first quarter.
Bond funds clearly were the place to be in the second quarter,...

Hi beauties,
Welcome to my first ever holiday special with the name: Christmas with Caitlyn. And let me just say, I'm so excited, I absolutely love Christmas. I love the lights, I love the decorations and most of all I love the fashion.
But today we won't be looking at the amazing fashion, instead we'll be concentrating on the gifting part of Christmas. In particular: Lip scrub.
The idea came from this lip scrub by Lush. It tastes so good, they have so many different flavours and it works really well, my only issue with it is, it's quite pricey. So I decided to do some handiwork instead. So let's get started:
– small makeup holders
– castor sugar
– olive oil
– honey
– flavouring (optional)
1.) Take a teaspoonful of castor sugar and mix it with 1-1.5 teaspoonfuls of olive oil. The mixture should not be too oily.
2.) Add honey. Just dribble it over the mixture. It can't be too sticky, but it's supposed to help stick it all together.
3.) Now it's time to add the flavouring. I went for real christmasy flavours, since well, Advent starts today. Here for the one lip scrub I used gingerbread herbs and I swear it tastes just like gingerbread. So good!
For my second lip scrub I chose clementine and I just grated some of the peel into the mixture and then mixed it. It's fresh, fruity and it reminds me of the christmas season. Enjoy!
4.) Put the scrub in the makeup holder. Press it down and fill it up to get the most out of the scrub.
Voilà! You can use this lip scrub for yourself or pack it up as a christmas present. It's great, especially if your lips are chapped.
I can promise you now that I'll be making more DIYs for christmas presents, so stay tuned.
Now if you want to know when my special posts are you can follow me on Twitter @Fashion4forFun and if you have any additional questions, suggestions or reviews you can contact me at email@example.com .
Happy 1st Advent, enjoy it with your family and friends and I'll be seeing you guys soon.
P.S A big shout out to a few of my friends. They've been sick for the last few days and I'm hoping that this post will cheer them up a little bit. I love you guys, get well soon. ♡♥♡

5 Steps To Amplifying Your Teacher Voice: A Guide To Self Publishing
As I enter my tenth year in education, I never cease to be amazed by the quantity of meaningful content created by teachers and students all over the country. I have seen beautiful student poetry and art in school hallways. I have laughed as a teacher read journal entries to me from her first year teaching diary. I have seen a teacher who was struggling in the classroom come alive when delivering a poem about his identity.
Opportunities that allow you to elevate your voice and inspire others should never be ignored. One method to sharing your perspective with a wider audience is by publishing your work.
If you don't think you have something worth sharing, you do. Whether it is student poems, journal entries, sketches, and other forms of written or visual art, self-publishing can be for everyone. Keep reading for five easy steps to publishing your work or the work of your students.
What do you have to offer? I have met teachers who use their experiences in the classroom as their muse to create spoken word poetry and stand-up comedy. You should find a topic and approach that matches your own personal style, but here's a quick list to get you started:
- Poetry and short stories written by you or your students
- A collection of anecdotes of what your students say and do
- A book in which each chapter tells a story about a student that taught you an important lesson (e.g., patience or compassion)
- A collection of your favorite writing prompts (e.g., 100 warm-ups your students will love)
- A collection of quotes teachers can read for different purposes
Once you have identified your content, map out how you will organize and create the content. For my journal, it was a simple spreadsheet that allowed me to slowly build my content. Once I had a spreadsheet that divided my book into 45 manageable chunks of content, I committed to filling out 3-5 rows every day until my entire spreadsheet journal was written.
Once your writing is complete, the fun part begins: the design phase. First, you want to identify what software you want to use. I used Microsoft Publisher because it's free and easy to use. See this list of free and paid options.
Then, you will want a template you can build on. There are plenty of free, downloadable templates for all types of book sizes. If you know the size that you want your finished product to be, a simple search (e.g., "6 x 9 chapter book templates") will yield a variety of options.
If you're anything like me, you want your finished product to have beautiful graphics and designs. To create free, high-resolution graphics for inside my book, I used Canva. To find a royalty-free high resolution for my cover, I used Pixabay.
There are a variety of self-publishing companies on the internet to choose from. This phase can at times take a bit longer than designing your book, so make sure to time it accordingly.
Two publishers I recommend are:
- The Book Patch, which can turn around large quantities in a relatively short time frame for a low price
- Create Space, which can print books on demand and allows you to sell them on Amazon.com
If you choose Create Space as your publisher, you can start promoting and selling (or gifting) your book within 24 hours on Amazon.com. If you opt for ordering your books and selling them yourself, it typically only takes a week to get your first copies.
Then, enjoy telling the world about the awesome book you just published. Share it on your social media pages. Take it to conferences. Gift it to friends and ask them to tweet about it. Tell Teach For America about it!
And, most importantly, enjoy the sense of accomplishment that comes with learning new skills, believing in your gift, and elevating your voice past the four walls of your classroom.

Maurice was wonderful to work with. He communicated the process to me every step of the way! I'm a paralegal, and I contract my services to attorneys - I will recommend M&R for their process service needs.
My attorney recommended I use a document preparation service to save cost in our Estate battle until my niece gets an attorney. This was the best advice! I hired Kathleen to file an objection. Her knowledge of forms and the filing process astounds me to this day! I must say, I am a good client as I had my information ready and in good order. ParaLegals are not "Attorneys" and will tell you this upfront. If you know what you need to do but need help filing and preparing your document correctly, I HIGHLY recommend hiring Kathleen. As it turns out there was more property owned by my father. I hired Kathleen again to prepare each of these documents as well.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has opened a probe into former Attorney General Loretta Lynch's alleged interference with the FBI's investigation into 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, the committee's chairman announced Friday.
The FBI is trying to determine whether Lynch tried to impede the Clinton investigation, according to a press release from South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham.
In the release, Graham cites a New York Times report that the FBI obtained a document authored by a "Democratic operative who expressed confidence that Ms. Lynch would keep the Clinton investigation from going too far."
Fired FBI Director James Comey has said publicly that Lynch tried to manipulate the way in which he referred to the criminal investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server when she was Secretary of State.
Loretta Lynch vs. Jeff Sessions: A study in recusals
Comey said at a June Senate hearing that Lynch had asked him to refer to the investigation as a "matter," not an investigation, and said that Lynch's behavior made him doubt her ability to make unbiased decisions.
The bipartisan probe into the former attorney general comes as the panel is already investigating President Trump's firing of Comey.
Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the panel's senior Democrat, sent a letter to Lynch this week requesting information. They were joined by Sen. Lindsey Graham R-South Carolina and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse D- Rhode Island.
A spokesman for Lynch said that she would cooperate fully with the inquiry.

"Ms. Lynch is a committed public servant who has dedicated much of her career to the Department of Justice and led the department as attorney general in the fair and impartial administration of justice," said spokesman Robert Raben.

Pinders is the leading name in the area of Business Valuation and their business appraisal report is now the most widely relied upon assessment. Since their first report in 1969 they have produced almost 200,000 detailed assessments on businesses across five sectors: Healthcare and Education, Licensed Trade, Retail and Catering, Leisure and Hospitality, and Service and Manufacturing.
Pinders has been at the forefront of the appraisal and valuation of care and education businesses for the past 30 years, and have prepared in excess of 30,000 Pinders reports for such establishments. This means that Pinders have an incredibly detailed record of these sectors. It was therefore a natural development that in 1999 they took over sponsorship and organisation of the Healthcare Design Awards .
The Awards aim to promote and recognise the very best developments in all types of care-related property, whilst the Award categories seek to acknowledge the contribution made by care home owners, designers and architects to the well-being and quality of life for those in their care. Care establishments of all sizes, types and locations are given the opportunity to take part in the Awards.
We are delighted to announce that The Chantry project has been chosen as a finalist in the Best Regeneration category of the 2015 Healthcare Design Awards! At the time of writing we are awaiting to hear when the judges will visit the project, which is likely to be during February or early March. The winners will then be announced at the Awards lunch in London on Wednesday 25th March. This lunch has become one of the 'must-go' diary dates in the healthcare calendar, and we are delighted to be part of it this year!
We are excited and proud to be nominated for this prestigious award in recognition of the high quality care we provide at our specialist care homes.

Since starting my business in 2008 I have supported many charities with donations, these being in the form of money and goods for auctions. Some of the charities I have supported are;
Scruples Whippet Rescue (now Just Whippets)
Hounds First
Greyhound Rescue South Yorkshire
National Greyhound Trust
Kim's Home for Elderley and Abused Dogs
National Animal Welfare Trust
Lancky Dogs
Evesham Greyhound & Lurcher Rescue
Celia Cross Greyhound Trust
Halfway There Hounds
Erin Hounds Sighthound Rescue
Scottish Greyhound Sanctuary
Pawprints Dog Rescue
Tia Greyhound & Lurcher Rescue
I am sure I have missed a few.
In the past, I have taken on discounted orders for Charity Re-Sale. Sadly, at this time I am not able to do so. I have become aware of a situation that I believe is a scam and whilst I know the people who run the charities I support are not dishonest I cannot rule out the possibility that someone may use this direction to facilitate this.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
If you have rescued a dog (irrespective of breed) and you would like me to support your rescue, please let me know. I do help where I can but I cannot help everybody and do have to say no from time to time.

Botulism & Unsafe Canning Methods - PVP29/
Show Notes
Botulism is no joke! I understand that some folks might decide to not home can because of the real dangers. I do not want to replace or supplant good information--so please learn about botulism on the Center for Disease Control (CDC) website: Botulism: General Information and Frequently Asked Questions.
Recent Cases of Botulism and What Went Wrong
A more recent case in Ohio in June 2015 involved home canned potatoes. Home canned potatoes were served at a potluck in a potato salad. That sounds scary! So, what happened?
The home preserver used a water bath canner instead of a pressure canner to can potatoes. A water bath canner isn't a substitute for a pressure canner. Ever. Why? A water bath canner is cannot reach the temperatures required to create a safe, shelf stable food as it can only process food to the temperature of boiling water. In contrast, a pressure canner can process food to temperatures of 240 degrees or higher. The higher temperature kills the cooties that cause illness and death.
Once upon a time folks thought that extending water bath canning time would be a suitable substitute for the high temperatures in a pressure canner. Okay, that seems reasonable. But, how much time would that be? Twice as long? Three times as long? Nope, 7 to 10 hours! Of course, there are no food safety scientists developing recipes for safe water bath canning with times like that!
Bottom Line
Never, ever substitute a water bath canner for a pressure canner. And when in doubt, toss it out!
Oven Canning
From 1931 to 1942 the USDA gave its stamp of approval to oven canning. In 1944 the USDA issued a warning against oven canning. Here's the deal: oven canning involves dry heat. Dry heat doesn't penetrate the jars and the food in the same why as moist heat. Okay, so? Well, that means that the cooties that cause illness and death are not going to be killed during oven canning. Plus, there are zero, zilch, no guidelines for oven canning. Plus, jars may crack and explode. In other words there are no data to support home canning in an oven. Yes, we could go on about what if scenarios--but the bottom line is no current research, no current guidance, thus no safe recipes for home canning in the oven.
Microwave Canning & Dishwasher Canning
Microwave canning and dishwasher canning. Both of these just make me go, huh? Why do we insist on innovating in the kitchen? It isn't the same as cooking a roast in the oven or on the stove top or in the microwave or in a crock pot. The underlying problem with both of these methods are: heat penetration to kill the cooties just isn't present or consistent. There are no tested methods or recipes using a microwave or dishwasher for home canning.
Canning Powders
Canning powders are interesting to me--I wonder how we arrived at thinking this might be a good idea. Canning powders could be labeled "Not Safe Since 1917". Yup, a century ago scientists determined that canning powders had a minuscule if any affect on controlling the growth of microorganisms as part of canning. Canning powders contained boric acid, salicylic acid, and salts or a combination of one or more ingredients. Interesting but completely not safe. Like so many things we people "rediscover" an idea and run with it--in this case, don't!
Open Kettle Canning
Oh gosh, the jam and jelly purists are going to be upset. Bottom line here is that cooties are simply not excluded using the open kettle process. I recommend eating that wonderful, delicate jam today and storing the leftovers in the fridge.
And finally, if the boredom or curiosity is sweeping over you, can delve into all the gory details of the history of home canning by reading Critical Review of Home Preservation Literature and Current Research. The lead author, Elizabeth Andress, is also one of the authors of a reliable canning book: So Easy to Preserve available from the University of Georgia. Penny up $18.00 for a terrific book full of safe recipes and good information!
Be safe and eat well.

A weird maze is found in the outer space. It can cause a runner of Run 3 to get lost. The main character needs to escape from here by running ahead till he cannot run anymore. Join in the playfield to lend him a hand now, dear all players!
All every player must fulfill is to guide him to the right paths which might lead him to the desirable destination. But at first, there is a need to help him smoothly overcome all gaps along the paths. How? Cleverly leap over the wide gaps and exactly turn at 3-way crossroads. Just tumbling into any gaps, he'll suddenly hang in the outer space and never come back anymore. So, keep self cautious, please! Importantly, he is designed to move at the high speed. That's why he runs so fast.
Good luck to you all in Run 3!

Please, Sir, can I have more?
Does it help if you're robbed by a guy with good manners? A Portland man walked into a local Sunglass Hut, grabbed nearly $2,000 worth of merchandise and told an employee, "I'm sorry dude, I need these." And then he returned to the same shop later the same day and tried to get away with another haul, this time with no apology. He was eventually apprehended, and turns out that the guy had visited the store not twice, but four times in recent weeks, netting more than $5,000 in eyewear.

How quickly the past few years have flown by! In the blink of an eye, your cheerful, bouncing baby has grown into an active and curious six-year-old. This age is full of milestones, from their first day of first grade to that first small, wiggly tooth. When the latter milestone unfolds, you and your child both may brim with excitement. However, with this first lost tooth comes a whole host of new responsibilities you'll have to prepare your child for. After all, this is the first sign the adult teeth are soon to emerge. This article will serve as a guide for ensuring your child receives the proper care from your family dentist as their permanent adult teeth break through.
How Long Will It Take for My Child's Teeth to Fall Out?
The answer to this question depends on several factors. The first involves the location of the tooth. You can expect the front teeth to loosen first, with the teeth toward the back taking longer. You likely remember this same pattern unfolding when your child teethed as an infant and had their baby teeth grow in.
The second factor is determined by how curious your child is about their wiggly loose tooth. If you catch them messing with it often, there's a good chance it'll fall out sooner than later. The root of the loose tooth will also need time to recede so the tooth itself can be removed. You can generally expect the tooth to take anywhere from days to months to fall out.
What Happens After My Child Loses a Tooth?
The good news is you shouldn't have to incorporate too many changes, though there are a few habits you should start to instill in your child to limit the need for preventative dentistry for children in the future. Now is a more important time than ever to encourage your child to maintain a healthy diet. Their adult teeth will be the only set they will ever own, so it's important they take proper care of them and prevent the possibility of cavities as much as they can.
Keep up their brushing habits, but remind them to be gentle with the area where they lost their tooth. This area is now sensitive and prone to soreness if scraped too much by toothbrush bristles. If the tooth has just fallen out, you can also help your child gargle to clean the area.
What Else Can I Do?
Now that your child's tooth is loose, there's no better time to set your child up with a great family dentist! They can monitor your child's oral development and make sure their permanent teeth are growing as they should, as well as take care of any problems, should they arise. By teaming up with a family dentist in Leesburg, you can effectively pave the road to your child developing a bright and healthy "grown up" smile! Be sure to contact us to learn more about how we can help you.

Everything went to shit with my plans to go to Patrick's event and I was in a shitty mood all day (that rarely happens.)
I figured the best thing to do is go for a ride and get beer & pizza. I tried to start my car and it sounded like a handful of busted-up shit was in the engine, or my flywheel was in pieces. I tried few times and the noise remained. I turned the engine by hand to try & hear something, but it seemed ok. I jiggled the shifter around then hit the key again....everything's fine. Seems like it was partially in gear or something.
I picked up a friend who hasn't been in a DeLorean since riding in 10372. He commented that this car seems way faster than my last one (I agree.) The carb needs a bit more tuning, and it's on the Byrne manifold, but it still has more balls than the stock 3 speed I had. He also mentioned the exhaust doesn't seem as loud as when I first started working on the car...my wife says the same thing. I thought I was just getting used to the Hervey setup, but it sounds quieter to me too. I guess exhaust is quieter when the car runs better......I don't know.
I had a beer & a burger, and pulled outta my funk. It was also good to see my buddy Jimmy was working on his car tonight....oddly, those things give me a boost. Jimmy & I are planning a meet again before the end of the season. One day we'll plan a cool driving tour like Patrick's....I hope some of you pricks show up.
I always try to maintain perspective; failed plans to bring a DeLorean to meet with friends & their DeLoreans in Northern Michigan is [by far] a First World problem. There are people suffering from hurricanes, so I'm counting blessings: I drove my car tonight and had a burger & beer with a friend.
Hell yeah man...these cars are funny like that. They manage to bring out highs and lows....i really enjoyed working on my car tonight. Sometimes working on it is more fun then driving it . Lol
This past Saturday Jimmy & I met in Tupper Lake for a great finish to the driving season. Food, beer, and people were good. Random encounter with Bill Collins' son Ted was cool.
Here are some pics I took along the trip, some stolen from Jimmy's wall, and a few that Ted sent:

I'm thinking of trying to re-pack the Magnaflows jut to see if it can be done.
I just mentioned you last night, brah....was on the phone with my brother.
4728 is put away for the Winter.
It was a good season, as things went much more according to plan than the first two years. I put almost 800 miles on, and crossed-off a lot of "to-do's."
My last drive was a meetup w/Jimmy (2706) in Tupper Lake NY. It was a great day; weather was perfect and the beer & food were great. We also had the random encounter of meeting Bill Collins' son Ted w/his wife Jess. (pics above.)
A nice surprise that put a finishing touch on the end of the season was seeing this (from my youngest daughter) in the local paper yesterday:
I'm ashamed to say I probably didn't even drive 500 miles the whole year. I know Chris Burns would be mad but the thing is I choose to work because business has been insane this year. I got my motorcycle out like twice(for the whole year) and the poor DeLorean just sits. The only time she gets out is usually on Sundays since most Saturdays fine me playing catch up at work. Even then, half the time we are out, it's in my wife's convertible.
Tomorrow is supposed to be partly cloudy and 75 degrees, and my wife wants to go on a road trip...in her car. The DeLorean continues to sit.

"Otherside" is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, released in 2000.[2] It was the third single from their album Californication, and confronts the battles addicts have with their prior addictions. The single was highly successful peaking at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, the fourth highest ever for the band; and number one on the US Modern Rock Tracks, which was, at the time, the fifth for the band. The song remained at number one on this chart for 13 consecutive weeks, one of the longest runs at the top of that chart.

"Otherside" refers to former band member Hillel Slovak, who died of a heroin overdose on June 25, 1988. The song talks about his struggles from this addiction.[1]
Music videoEdit
The video was directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris in a black-and-white/monochrome Gothic style similar to Robert Wiene's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, all influenced by German Expressionist art. Elements of Cubism and work by the graphic artist M. C. Escher are also seen in the video.
A cartoonish story line is juxtaposed upon the song; that of a young man's dream sequence. The band members appear dressed in black in unusual locations, with props intended to appear as surreal instruments. Throughout the video Anthony Kiedis with short, platinum hair is seen in a castle tower. His stage persona is different and quite dark when compared to his more energetic performances in other videos. John Frusciante plays a rope down a long corridor as if a guitar. Flea is hanging on high voltage wires and playing them as if they were a bass guitar, and Chad Smith is up on a tower with a rotating medieval clock that serves as his drum kit.[3]
Jonathan Dayton: "We did look at Caligari, and we looked at a lot of German Expressionist film. But it was also very important to avoid 'Caligari.' It was both inspiration and something to work around, because it has such a strong, specific style, and there have been other videos that have completely ripped it off."
Valerie Faris: "We didn't look at 'Calagari' all that much, really. We did, but then we just left it. We did look at a lot of the works of the futurist artists from the '30s, and the illustrations of the surrealists and from cubism. We were inspired more by paintings than by films…"[citation needed]
Live performancesEdit
"Otherside" has remained a constant staple on the band's tours since 1999, making it one of their top ten most performed songs.[4]
This section does not cite any sources. (December 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In 2009, Seattle producer Ryan Lewis sampled the song as a backdrop for his song of the same name with the rapper Macklemore. The song depicted Macklemore's own personal struggles as well as the wider problems that the hip hop community has with drug abuse.
In 2010, house duo Third Party made an unofficial remix of the song. The remix garnered considerable attention, but was never released. It was made official and released by Warner Bros. in 2013.
Other versionsEdit
German pop singer Mandy Capristo has covered this song on her album Grace.

Mastering the five senses is essential for budding writers, especially poets. We often only have a limited amount of space or time in which to convey our meaning or describe something to our audience, so we need to be able to use the senses effectively in our writing. This means that practising using the senses is very important!
Last time, I discussed sight. I believe sight is by far the easiest sense to write because I have always found it easier to imagine something's physical appearance than to imagine what it feels like, sounds like, smells like or tastes like. Today, we are going to examine sound, how we can describe sound in our writing, and the benefits it can provide.
Obviously, you will need to know the sound that you are trying to reproduce. It might be a good idea to search the internet for a sound clip that is close to the sound you wish to write about and listen to it for a while. This will allow you to get a good feel of the sound. Now it is time to translate that noise into words.
Try to select something that is a focal or main point to the piece you are writing. Sound can be a very good way to set the mood of a piece, as we tend to associate different sounds with different emotions or ideas: waves lapping softly against the pebbles on a beach could represent tranquillity; a long, drawn-out howl on a moonlit night might suggest something scary is going on or about to happen. I would personally advise against bombarding your readers with too many different sounds at once. Try to stick to a main sound or a main theme for your sounds.
Now consider the language that you are going to use to describe this sound. As someone who does not tend to focus on sounds often when reading, I use powerful words in short bursts when I am trying to create sound within my writing. Take a look at my poem But for now a World of Despair, where I used the noises associated with an avalanche to describe my feelings on the migrant crisis in Europe in 2015. Words like 'grumble' and 'bellow' are stronger than 'groan' and 'shout'. Notice also how I placed the word 'song' in the middle of the poem to demonstrate that this poem is focused around sound. When you are writing about sounds, you should carefully pick out your words, too.
For example, it is okay to say 'he spoke loudly' or 'he shouted'. But he could also roar or holler. You can add more intensity to the sound in your writing by expanding your vocabulary and replacing common words with more powerful descriptions that will evoke a greater response. Try practising with different sounds to see what you can come up with – I would love to share some poems or stories focused around sound on this blog.
This month's theme is THE FIVE SENSES. If you have written something that you would like me to share on this blog on the theme of the five senses, then please post a link in the comments or email me on firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject: Five Senses.

Hi all,
i will give you an example directly. for example i want to send command to a msn messenger window with my c# program. how can i do this. Which subject i will search and study.
View Complete Post
I have this code that hides a column in a gridview. (The column houses another nested gridview).
Protected Sub GridView1_RowCommand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewCommandEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowCommand
If e.CommandName = "Select" Then
If GridView1.Columns(0).Visible = False Then
GridView1.Columns(0).Visible = True
GridView1.Columns(0).Visible = False
End If
End If
End Sub
The trouble is that if I click the select link on one row that action to hide is carried out on all rows. How can I set this up so that it only hides the row that is selected?
ÃÂ Hi.
I want to create object in 1.aspx, and then send it to 2.aspx. This methods are bad, because:
1)Send object with url, like this:
This is not confidential.
Session["field1"] = "12345"; // set
Object foo = Session["field1"]; // get
Could someone please tell me what is wrong with my syntax here? I'd be much appreciative.
objCmd = New SQLCommand("SELECT CASE WHEN objDR('Item') = 'Enter Bill of Lading' then enterbol " _
& "WHEN objDR('Item') = 'Bill of Lading History' THEN bolhistory " _
& "WHEN objDR('Item') = 'Request Transfer' or objDR('Item') = 'View Transfer in Progress' THEN transfers " _
& "END from plantGroups where plantgroupid=@plantgroupid", objConn)
First I will say I googled (Binged to make Bill happy) for this but could not find anything, perhaps I am not stating what I need correctly;
I have a website that a customer creates orders (for a printing company) and after the order, I would like to email the customer a link to view the status of their order;
I need to send the CustomerID in the link so on the returning page if a CustomerID is detected in the querystring, I "auto login" the client and open the "Dashboard" for the order page for that customer.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to send the link and how to parse the querystring to get the values from the link;
Thank you if you can point me in the right direction.
Dear All i have created one simple service

Service-oriented architecture is a great framework when you need to perform distributed computing tasks over the Internet. But when you want to perform processing inside your local network, a different solution may provide a better fit. That solution, based on the Command pattern, uses Windows services and Microsoft Message Queuing to implement a queued system that meets your needs better than a service-oriented solution. This article explains how to build it.

MSDN Magazine September 2004
When creating a distributed system you frequently need to provide for communication between two entities that are not in sync. Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) provides the kind of store-and-forward messaging in a pre-built infrastructure that can help you address these kinds of messaging needs. In the past, MSMQ was accessed using a COM wrapper. Now there's a .NET wrapper that lets you accomplish your messaging goals easily from your Framework-based code. To illustrate the use of the wrapper, the author builds a messaging application, sends MSMQ messages over the Web, and discusses messaging security.

In Windows Forms applications, similar commands, such as those in a menu and their counterparts on a toolbar, are not automatically related. They don't fire the same event or run the same handler routine. Yet code that allows the same or similar user commands to fire the same code simplifies development.This article describes the principles of command management and why it's important to have functional commands that are not exclusive to any one UI element. In order to provide an MFC-like command management infrastructure, a design pattern is developed and applied as a series of C# classes.

All versions of Windows 2000 have fax services built in, so sending faxes manually is as easy as setting fax options from the control panel. Faxes can also be sent programmatically in Windows 2000 using either COM Automation or the standard C API. The example in this article uses COM Automation with Visual Basic and MFC to programmatically manage faxing. The objects used for fax transmission, such as the FaxServer and FaxDoc objects, as well as their properties and methods, are explained. Because faxing of files you can't print can be problematic, this process is explained. Finally, this article implements a fax routing extension-a plug-in that exports standard functions and implements routing methods for processing received faxes.

Besides your typical e-mail services, Microsoft Exchange also provides the service infrastructure you need to build extensible knowledge and workflow management systems. Understanding Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) is the key to accessing these Exchange services for your own programs. With CDO you can automate tedious tasks and integrate information such as e-mail, calendars, and contacts with almost any application. This article explains how CDO enables you to access Exchange services, then walks you through a sample application that reads calendar events from an Exchange server and sends pager reminders to your users.
