Book #: Book 5 in the Mary Poppins series
Book description:
She's back! Mary Poppins, everyone's favorite nanny, has returned to take the Banks children on another unforgettable adventure. On the most magical of nights, Midsummer's Eve, all kinds of strange things can happen–mythical visitors come down from the heavens and animals speak. But Mary Poppins takes it all in stride, drawing everyone, even the trembling Park Keeper, into the spirit of a romantic and magical holiday.
My review:
This is a single story rather than multiple (like the other books were), about Midsummer's Eve and the weird magical things that happen on this night. The poor Park Keeper gets picked on quite a bit in this book, as he first tries to keep to the laws of the Park, then hopelessly tries to join on the mystical magic happenings, and then just has to give up and go with the crazy as Mary Poppins does her thing. I feel sorry for him, he gets into trouble and its never actually his fault, its always Mary Poppins.
I think other things happen in this book, but it honestly wasn't that memorable.
Final review:
Mary Poppins in Cherry Tree lane rating: 4/10
Would I re-read it? No
Who would I recommend it to? Hardcore fans of the book series

I have two calculation questions about a Sevice Ticket Database I have created.
1. In the database there are fields called "DateCreated", "DateClosed" and "Completion Time". I would like the Completion Time to calculate the amount of days between the two Created and Closed Dates. And also have the completion time remain blank if there is not a closed date inputed yet.
I found online one calculation that kind of works but has a strange number value in the fields if the date closed has not been provided.
Int((DateClosed - DateCreated)/7) * 5 + If(DayOfWeek(DateClosed) < DayOfWeek(DateCreated);
Min(5; DayOfWeek(DateClosed) - 1) + Max(0; 6-DayOfWeek(DateCreated));
If(DayOfWeek(DateCreated) < 7; Min(6;DayOfWeek(DateClosed)) -
DayOfWeek(DateCreated); 0)) + 1
2. Based on the answer for "Completion Time" I want the "SLA Time Met" Field to say "Yes" or "No" and the Text to be Green (Yes) and Red (No). Below is what I have so far.
Case(Completion Time <= 4;"Yes";"No")
Thank you for your help!

Drawing 3
My Influences
My first great influence and artist that I really look up to is Vincent Van Gogh. Over 1,700 of his works survive to this day. In his life he created almost 900 drawings and more than 800 paintings. He did thing in his brief art career of only ten years, and only sold one for the equivalent of 80 dollars. His work was of a personal sort and he created more self-portraits than any other painter besides Rembrandt. Even his landscapes, figures, interiors, and still life's are a sort of portrait. His method was to infuse what he felt and what he saw into a single painting as quickly as possible.
Van Gogh felt a great need to give love and had a greater need to receive love and yet never got it. He wrote once, "One may have a blazing heart in one's soul and yet no one ever comes in to sit. Passersby see only a wisp of smoke rising form the chimney and continue on their way." He felt that the world was dark place that God had put together quickly on one of his bad days. This was something that he had to fight threw. To people of later times, he became a hero, fighting against the established order yet he never thought as himself as a hero. He belittled himself all the time. He would sign his works only with his first name and never his whole name. He felt the French would only screw it up. But he never signed in full in his home of Holland either.
Born on March 30, 1853, in the village of Groot in Holland. He was the oldest of six children. He had two brothers and three sisters. But he was only close to his brother Theo. Theo gave him bits of money, supplies, and paints through out Vincent's whole career as an artist. Vincent wrote to Theo all the time sending him drawing and paintings. Thoe was also an art dealer. Van Gogh did not start off as an artist. He was the son of a pastor and being a pastor was the first thing he wanted to do. But he was too strict and literal for the parishioners and other clergy members, so he left. He found that painting and drawing was a much better way to help other and himself.
Van Gogh started in Holland with his peasant painting. He wanted to show how hard peasants worked for very little and how they appreciated all they had. This came to its climax in his Potato Eaters. He captured so well their rough hand, their exhaustion, and how the light from the oil lamp lit the room. After that, he became board with Holland and wanted something new. He came to live with his brother in Paris and there he was exposed to the works of the Manet, Degas, Cezanne, the Impressionist, the Pointillists, the Symbolists, and Japanese art. Van Gogh became friend with Pissarro, Toulouse-Lautrec, Signac, Gauguin, and other avant-guard painters. His work went through a metamorphosis as a painter. He said that in Holland he was a "shaggy dog", and then an art critic called him a "singing bird". Brightness and lightness flooded into his work. He painted café interiors, breeze swept landscapes, dark figures where replaced with vivid close ups of friends. Though his personality didn't change, his painting was liberated.
Van Gogh absorbed many new techniques and deliberately imitated them in his own work. He practiced pointillism and copied in painting Japanese wood block. He played around with perspective, color, and hard outlines. He liked the impressionist idea of the brush stroke itself playing a part in the object the stoke represents. He liked heavy us of paint and strong horizontals and verticals to plant wheat and grass firmly into the ground. His early impressionist works were light filled canvases that were virtually indistinguishable at first glace form other Impressionist works.
Van Gogh also found the city of Paris to be very stimulating. It had everything that was good their. A coming together of new and old and Van Gogh absorbed all he could. But he soon got overwhelmed and left. He moved to Arles in the south of France on the Rhones River, 55 miles inland form the Mediterranean. It was a very old Roman city. However, he did not paint the old Roman building, he painted all the modern ones. The light and color of Arles overwhelmed him. The blossoming fruit trees, the violet earth, the olive tree, and cypresses. He was enchanted and driven by the sun. In 1888, he produced 90 drawing and 100 paintings. Some of them include, The Drawing Bridge, Sunflowers, The Zovaue, Starry Night on the Rhone, Fishing Boats on the Beach, and The Arlesienne.
Van Gogh said, " that he wish to give hope to poor creatures. I was his belief that, "it is actually ones duty to paint the rich and magnificent aspects of nature. We need gaiety and happiness, of hope and love. The uglier, older, vicious, ill, and poor I get, the more I want to take my revenge by producing a brilliant color, well-arranged, resplendent." From February 1888 to May 1889, he produced 200 paintings, all masterpieces; all reflect light, color, and energy. Van Gogh drove himself to the physical and emotional exhaustion to produce these works. His time under the sun had made him and art giant, but he only had a year left.
Another artist that I that I draw inspiration from is Henri Matisse. Matisse was born on December 31, 1869 in Le Cateau, France. In 1887, he went to Paris to study law. He got really sick and was bed ridden. His mother brought him some paints and canvas for something to do while he was healing. He fell in love with painting and changed his career from lawyer to artist. He said, "I have discovered a kind of Paradise". His father was very upset. In 1891, he returned to Paris to study and Academie Julian. He started off making still life's and landscapes in the traditional Flemish style. Matisse loved the artist Chardin, and went to the museum to make copies of his paintings.
In 1896, Matisse showed five in the Salon fo the Soiciete Nationale des Beaux-Arti. The state bought two of them. In 1891, he visited Peter Russell. Russell introduced him the impressionist works of Van Gogh. Later he would teach Matisse color theory. Matisse was also influenced by Manet, Cezanne, Gauguin, Signac, and Rodin, and Japanese art. Later, he became close friends with Picasso.
The first painting that really got Matisse some attention was The Joy of Life. He made several version of it. His final version he used bold, flat contrasting colors to create a work with much impact. He simplified the figure and with strong outlines and filled the figures with solid color. The figures seem to find their own peace in there own way. Some figures are dancing in the background, some are relaxing, and one couple down in the corner are embracing each other. One critic coined the term fauves or wild beasts for the violent appearance of the painting. Matisse embraced the term and made it his own. The painting shows a very primal world and a very sexual nature.
Matisse loved to collect woven patterns. From when was young to when he was old, he collected these patterns. He would spend all his money on them. He really liked Persian Tapestries. He also collected African art and craft. He would decorate his whole house with the stuff and the same for his studio. It looked like a magician lair rather than a place of work. The collections served as inspiration and archives for his work. He was criticized for applying colors like a weaver, saturating his canvas like a dye merchant, and using old weaver tricks lay out his paintings.
In his technique, he would pin up colored paper to the canvas and try out different color combinations. He these tricks back in his hometown that was know for its textiles. He used the technique while making another famous work, Harmony in Red. It started off as Harmony in Blue. But he found that it was much better in red. He used these tricks threw out his whole life and often used paper cutout to work out form and color. He said while working on Harmony in Red, "I was seeking forces: balance of forces.
The last of Matisse's work I will mention is The Red Studio. "You are looking for a red wall", he said, "This does not exist at all." "Where I got the color. I do not know. All these things, flowers, furniture, the chest of drawings become what they are to me when I see them with the color red."
This was one of Matisse's boldest attacks on the three-dimensional space. He erases the wall, floor, and corner of the room, yet the interior is implied by the arrangement of objects in the room. The chairs remind us of Matisse's idea of rest from the physical fatigue. He wanted to disestablish the laws of 3-D illusion. Also, color was most important to Matisse and everything else was secondary.
The last artist I am now drawing new inspiration from is David Carmack Lewis. His work reminds of impressionist work, similar to Van Gogh, but with different subject matter. He is originally from Virgiania. He studied illustration at the Virginia Commonwealth and in Cardiff, Walse. He started painting after moving to Phoenix Arizona in the early 90's. He showed his work at Scotts Dale Arizona in Art One Gallery. Then he moved to Numibia near Cape Town in South Africa. He had a few shows there. Then he moved to Portland, Oregon and that is where he is living and working today.
Lewis's work is about the night and our efforts to hold it at bay. He has a color pallet for light and used the dark for dominance. The work is about location and light. However there is a story going on. The pictures look as if someone was there or there is someone there and we can't see them cause they are in the shadows. The used of light and darkness creates this kind of drama and creates a kind of mystery. The view is slightly detached from the piece because the perspective is over the area so that they can look of subtle clues to the story. There is also a sense of loneliness, but the artist is not struggling with it, in fact he is embracing it.
Lewis tells stories. The may not have a beginning or an end, but it is there. He likes fantasy, horror, science fiction, and myths. If may not show in his work, but it is a starting point. The events in the paintings are unusual or impossible. It is a reminder to us to look around with different eyes so that mysteries and revelations may reveal themselves. The color that was shown during the day is now betrayed in a world of darkness and only partially and imperfectly revealed by light.
One of the writers I really enjoy is C.S. Lewis. Mainly his series of books called Mere Christianity. I also enjoy The Chronicles of Narnia but I will save those for another time. I will be talking about his first book, The Law of Nature.
In the Law of Nature, Lewis starts off by talking about how people argue. How the argue by trying to prove that one of them is in the wrong and the other one is trying to prove that they are not in the wrong. They are measure the cases against a standard, which everyone seems to know. And it must be real, because if it wasn't then we still might argue there would be know way to prove who is right. Why should the person who was in the wrong feel he must prove that he is not and the person who was wronged? Why should they feel anything at all.
After the standard was proven to be a real thing, call in morality. The second thing came into play. Where did it come from? If it was just a man made thing, then what gave them the wright to make rules for the rest of us. No, it must have came before us. Something further back and high up made it. It would have to be more than a human. But how do we know it is their. It can't show us its self in the ordinary since. That is like an architect designing a house while being a wall in the house. But the architect does make instruction, which the lay out of the house follows. We can feel these instructions within our selves. When we disobey them, we feel bad and feel good if we do right.
Now this only works if goodness is a real thing. Otherwise you could not complain if someone was unkind or did wrong to you. The standard is only interested in good conduct and does not care how painful or how long it will take for you to do. Being good is the only right answer; anything else is a waste.
Another thing I am really enjoying is the Universe on the History channel. The stuff on there is so cool. Learning about he vastness of space and long it take light to get form one side of the galaxy to the other is just amazing. The Universe is a very beautiful place. It is also an extremely dangerous place, full of magnatars, black holes, and galactic collisions.
Magnatars are the are neutron stars that are born out of the death of massive stars, 30 to 40 time the mass of our sun. When these huge stars die, they shed off 90 percent of the mass, leaving the densest material behind. The star goes super nova and what is left in the middle implode, compacting in on its self. What you are left with is a very dim very dense neutron star. Then the magnetic fields of the star pull and tug on the stars surface until it give and you have a star quake that sends of huge amount of energy. They are some of the most powerful forces in the universe.
Black Holes are area of space that have such a strong gravitational pull, that not even light can escape it. It will suck in anything that gets to close. We can only detect them indirectly. When light or a star passes near one, but not close enough to get sucked in, they will get distorted by the black holes gravity. Some stars even orbit around black holes like the planets around the sun. That is another sign of a back hole, many start with a strange orbit moving around a single point.
Galactic Collision happen when the galaxies gravity start pull each galaxy toward each other. The Milky Way is on a collision with are neighbor galaxy Andromeda. The Milky Way will be swallowed up by Andromeda, but since the distance between starts is so vast, we might even know it is happening. But it is possible that will get flung toward the center of the galaxy, and that could hurt us.
Right now I am reading The Unsettling of America: Culture and Agriculture by Wendell Berry. In the chapter titled, The Use of Energy, he talks about how mankind cannot make energy, he can only convert of refine it. How we don't use the energy efficiently. We make products and any thing that is not used is called waste, and if the waste has no use, it is called pollution. How man is using machines too mush and the is breaking the link between man and soil. How man is taking away for the soil and giving nothing back.
In Nature, there is a cycle. You are born, you live, breed, die, and the decay. Your energy that sustained you in life gets returned to the soil. That is a kind of infinite energy. However, the energy that is used to run machines is not infinite. It does have a seeming infinite shelf life and won't go bad, but once it is used, it is gone forever, and that we abuse those energies. There are other sources of energy that as far as we know seem to be infinite like wind, water, and solar. But if we abuse to limited resources how would we abuse the infinite ones.
We need to be more efficient. Right now we are just focused on consumption and production. We need to add one more step. That step is return. We must follow patterns of energy exchange. For example, out death will bring someone's life and we live in someone's death. We must not consume in the sense of using energy all up and we must not produce waste.
The word agriculture does not mean agriscience or agribussiness. It means cultivation of the land. The word cultivation the come the words cult, to worship and culture meaning to revolve and dwell. To live, to survive on earth, to care for the soil, and to worship bound at the root to the idea of a cycle.
There have been a lot of things that have been an influence in my personal life. My family, my friends, and my teachers are just some of the influences. Growing up on the farm has been a huge influence. I am doing a series of painting about farming for my senior show. Pop culture icons like Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Terminator, Alien, and Lord of the Rings are some of things that drew me to art in the first place. I loved the special feature of those movies; they showed all the creative power that went into creating those movies. Finally, just growing up, being a child that spent his time playing with legos, build mud and stick forts, running around bear foot all summer, and swimming in the creek when it flooded.
My family is busting with creative people. My father played the guitar, my sisters Holly and America were very good at drawing in high school, my sister Rena has a major in fashion. That is something right there; I have a lot of sister, six of them and only one brother. When I tell people that, they think it was because my parent had children from previous marriages then married each other and had more kids. Nope, we all have the same parents for all the children. I joke that parents needed slaves for the farm. I is also interesting that we all went to college. My little sister and I still need to graduate, but our older siblings already have. I guess I went to college because all my older siblings went so I felt I had to. I don't know if I was ready when I first came here. That is probably why I have been here so long. But I knew I didn't want to work at the window factory the rest of my life. Nothing motivates you to go to college more than a boring summer job. That was my biggest influence for going to college.
Farming life is the biggest influence in my painting right now. I am painting picture of farms and farm equipment. From big tractor and furor plows to milking units and manure gutters. I started out with machines from my home farm but then wanted to get into the modern dairy farm. We used to be a dairy farm but my dad got hurt and now we just run beef. My friend Forest does milk dairy cow and it is at his farm that I get most of my current imagery. I also took a trip to the Van Der Geese farm. It is a huge factory farm just north of Wausau, Wisconsin. There, everything is bigger, much bigger. Forest only has fifty animals and only twenty-five of them are milked. Van Der Geese have 4,500 cows and all of them are milked three times a day. I am now doing a series of painting that show the difference between these farms. Not only in size but how the to go about doing the work to accommodate the size of each farm.
I became an artist in the first because I wanted to be in the preproduction of movie or video game design. Those classes were not offered here when I first arrived. I chose studio art as a second choice. I didn't know where I wanted to focus when I started in studio art. I just new I wanted to create. At first I loved drawing because that is what I had been doing for the longest time in my life. Then I got into Art Metals and realized that I was good at making rings. I got lots of complements. But I thought making rings was too easy. Then I had Painting three with Professor Brantmirre. She opened my eyes to painting. Taught me about under painting and how colors work together. All my paintings before this class were just terrible until I learned about under painting. Now Professor Lume is pushing me further, I got my own technique, now I have to learn to apply it to story telling .

They See Us as Children
The name for this title came to me after the work was finished. I was continuing the work from before that was in charcoal. I picked title because because it the worked looked so child like and when when some it watching us with surveillance cameras it is usually security and other people of power. So it got to thinking of big government or big brother watching us and we are just children in there eyes who can't take care of them selves and need watching. This one is in water color and oil pastels. These materials were chosen for me along with the subject matter.
The class felt that for the next assignment, I should pick between the subject matter of survalance or the athentic look of the oil pastels and water color. I think I will go with the oil pastels and water color because it has a similar feel to the fast pasted confindent work I am doing in painting. Hopefully the next few drawings will build my confindence
I got a mixed response to

Geting back into it
This was the first Drawing three assignment of the new Spring 2010 semester. I had not made marks with charcoal for a long time now. My last two Drawing 3 classes that I was both had me doing more preformance and sculptural peaces and and before that I was working with oil pasteles and water color. So it has been a while for me.
Like I said this peice here was to get me back to the fundimentals. I enjoyed working with charcoal agian and really enjoyed drawing in a drawing class. This assignment was about journeys. I took the assignment as what we see on our way to class every day. Other people had much shorter journeys, like from the bed room to the bath room or never leaving there chair at all. Well mine was from my apartment to class, but all the images I took were we disjointed and didn't look like they connected with eachother. So I had so simlify journey.I took out all small section of it and made it my focus. It was a simple walk down the stairs in the art building. What came out were these four drawings on one sheet of paper. Even though it was form my veiw, the images looked like servalance cameras. I would like to revisit this idea, but this time have the camera position of in the corner of each flight of stairs, so it will be like the man is looking down on us.
When I remake this image there will be more images for the 3 corners of each of the 3 section of stairs, the cameras must miss nothing. I with also be using a straight edge and tape to seperate each camera image that share the same piece of paper. I will also saterate teh shadows and dark spots with more black charcol giving the image a much darker tone

Art lessons
I found it interesting that Haynes is telling us about he own experience as an artist. Where she started as a college student and than move threw whole career up until present. It make her seem more down on my level. She is never preachy. She tells us what she did. She does tell us that we have to work hard and be self disaplined, but it is more of a pep talk.
I would have to disagree with in that the word artist is a five dollar word. the word artist is just a word, what matters is what you do. I also thought that the poet she mentioned, Carl Sandburg is a real high on himself. Saying that the word artist is a word of praise reserved for only select class in the community and only they can deside weather you are good enough to be called an artist. I believe that Joseph Beuys has correct answer, that anyone the be an artist and art is a arena open to all. Now some may have an easier time and more advanced skills in different aspects of art, but as long as you are creating and think about the meaning of your work you are an artist.
I learned that you don't have to go through traditional art education to have a long and successful career as an artist. The art Howard Finster is one of these self tuaght individuals. I also learned that every once in a while, before moving forward, remind yourself why you chose to become an artist. Write down your thought about what you think. This will help you learn abou what you really think.
I relate to this book because I beleive that you don't always have to go to college to get a good education. That there are other ways, such as learing on the job, tech schools, aprenticeships, and working around other people with the same interense as you. That a lot of your education comes from out side the classroom. I think that is true. My parent tought me how to drive a car, operate farm equipment, my brother tought me how to fish, my dad showed me how to shoot. But you also have to take the rains and teach yourself, because you will not be in school for ever with professors telling you what to do.

Current Events
So last semester I was working with a minimalism. I found out that minimalism is very hard. The everything has to be perfect. The smallest flaw can ruin a project. I also found that not having a studio space for these kind of works really sucks. Many of my materials the had to be build at home because I did not have the tools or more importantly the space for some of my larger works. I also learned that in order for some of these works to have an impact, they need to be large. You must adaptable as an artist because school will soon be gone and you will need to provide yourself with your own space, tools, and transportation.

Taylor Fraser
Fraser installation was huge and ran the whole length of the gallery. I consecrated on the end parts that were on the end of the installation. It was this big piece of ply wood at leased 4 ft by 4ft. I was painted back and had old piece of smaller woo and metal attached in a circle on top of it. It looked as if something big had once been mounted on it but now had decayed away. It looked as if it once was in a factory but since it was not being used anymore was painted over and forgotten about. I am not sure what it is suppose to mean. Maybe my classmates have the answer.

Cal Lane-The Pug and the Proposition
These works had a dirty humor to them with a little pug staring at all these legs us wondering what he is going to do to them. The Pug has so many legs to choose from. Using the plasma cutter to draw or carve out the shape in the old rusted metal gave a very organic feeling to a man made thing. I reminded me of old grates over heater vent in old Victorian houses with the patterns going around the end of the oil can and the shape of the pug and legs in the middle. This work turned out to be a fun spin on a old found object.

do you inhale?
malignity replied to intangible's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversThere's a few guys I know that don't inhale, but most of us do... I don't understand how you can't.. it's such a smooth smoke that it just makes you want to
Hm.. smoker's cough?
malignity replied to malignity's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversI have allergies, but normally they're runny nose and watery eyes. My mom claims it's a smoker's cough.. and I'm like no, I don't think so.. cause yeah, they wouldnt be all wet and nasty. I thought they were dry too, but it's been years since she's smoked, so... *shrugs* It started about a week ago or so.. but seems to slowly be clearing up. I was just making sure that a smoker's cough wasn't a wet one. I don't know much about stuff like that. I appreciate all the help thus far
Hm.. smoker's cough?
malignity replied to malignity's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversVery true. My girlfriend is also a bouncy redhead.
Hm.. smoker's cough?
malignity posted a topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversAlright, so I've never 'smoked' before, other than hookah. So I'm not sure if I'm developing a smoker's cough, or if I'm just sick. (lol) So my question is, has anyone gotten a smoker's cough from smoking just hookah? I smoke 3 times a week or so, and well, have been coughing up phlegm when I cough. Is this a symptom? lol.. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I don't have the money really to go to a doctor, so I figured if it's symptoms of a smoker's cough, maybe I should cut back smoking a bit to clear up the lungs a little.
Looking for opinions of Japanese coals
malignity replied to Stew's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversWhile I haven't personally experienced chinese charcoal, i've been told by my arabic friend that they're not very good. Don't take my word, just cause it's hearsay, but I figured if anything, it may be a bit of help. Every hookah place I've been to recommends Three Kings. Most places I go to only sell that brand because it works well with no flavor or anything like that. Hope that helps a little?
To All You Golden Seal Esk Apple Nuts!
malignity replied to Mathazar's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversSpeaking of apple flavors... What's the difference in flavor between Double Apple, Bahraini Apple, Eskindrani, Apple and Special Apple? I had Bahraini apple, and i nearly puked. I can't stand black licorice. Do the other apple flavors smell like licorice?

malignity replied to great glavin's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah Lovers[quote name='Yashman19']About the 5Star mix by Al Waha, has this happend to anyone else or just me? When I first set the coals on the packed bowl and attempt to get it going, something about 5Star makes me cough. I know its not a harsh feeling that is making me cough, but the 5Star seems VERY strong when going. Then after about 10 minutes of coughing every once in a while it mellows out and tastes great. I also noticed this in my Al Waha Bannana. Its too damn overpowering in the first 10-15 minutes, causing me to cough not from burning, but then after that it mellows out and smokes great. Not a huge problem but sort of annoying how these 2 flavors do this and none of their others does.[/quote] Yashman, I've never tried Al Waha, but is it a very wet tobacco? Perhaps this is what's causing it. If there's a way to squeeze some of the juices out, perhaps it won't hit so strong? I've got a few ideas on how to do this, but I have no idea if they'd work.
Ma'assel Reviews (Fumari, Havana, etc..)
malignity replied to great glavin's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversNahkla Mint When I opened the box, I expected a nice green color or something, being mint. While the brown color disappointed me a little, I smelled it, and it had a slight "Vicks" smell to it, like the menthol smell in Vicks Vapor Rub. I tried it, and while the mint smell was quite strong, (so strong my girlfriend didn't like it and she smokes menthols) I didn't think it was half bad. If I was congested in the winter, smoking that would more than likely get rid of any stuffy nose. Nahkla tobacco however, compared to Al-Fahker seems to be a lot more dry. It still retains the flavor well, but the dryer cut seems to make the smoke a bit less thick. Overall Rating: 7-10. Nahkla Mixed Fruit Again, a brownish color, and dryer with less smoke than Al-Fahker. I haven't had Mixed Fruit alone yet, but I mixed it with Al-Fahker strawberry and it was delicious. It added a bit of a different flavor to the strawberry, and with fruit punch at the bottom of my bowl, I felt like I was in a fruit frenzy. An excellent 9.5 - 10 with the mix. When I try it alone, I'll revise this more. Overall Rating: To be decided/updated later.
malignity replied to malignity's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversI'll post a review of Nakhla Mixed Fruit and Nakhla Mint.

malignity posted a topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversSo I'm curious. What's your favorite mix when it comes to tobaccos? I just tried my first mix, and it was pretty good. Al-Fahker Strawberry and Nakhla Mixed Fruit. If you have any mix suggestions, please feel free to share.

What I've Read This Week . . .
Death at Bishop's Keep : A Victorian Mystery by Robin Paige (Susan Witting Albert and Bill Albert)
Death at Dartmoor : A Victorian Mystery by Robin Paige (Susan Witting Albert and Bill Albert)
Lord Charles and Lady Kate are now married and vacationing on the moors. Charles wants to try out his new fingerprinting program at the prison and Beryl Bardwell (Kate's alter ego) wants to attend a seance with Lady Duncan, a local Society lady. Also interested in the moors and seances are Dr. Conan Doyle, author of Sherlock Holmes, and his new writing partner Mr. Robinson. Patsy Marsden, an independent spinster and friend of Kate and Charles is there too. Charles finds the prison just as horrific as he was told it was but something about one of the prisoners makes him think the man may not be guilty of murder. If only Charles could convince the authorities to take more stock in forensic science. Dr. Spencer doesn't wish to have his sentence overturned. He has his reasons and he's keeping them to himself. When three prisoners escape, including Dr. Spencer, the locals are terrified. Their fear increases after a man is found dead and mutilated and everyone assumes it was a certain prisoner who committed the crime. Charles is not so sure and neither is Kate, for one of her new friends had a shocking communication from a spirit before anyone knew the person was dead. Charles and Conan Doyle begin an investigation to find the true murderer while Kate and Patsy make the acquaintance of another unconventional lady who may know a thing or two about the murder. This story is less dark and gothic than Death at Bishop's Keep. It contains elements of the supernatural but the characters debate whether the event was supernatural or natural and the conclusion is left to the reader to decide. I liked this book better than Bishop's Keep because it wasn't so dark. I was a bit disappointed in this novel though because I expected Charles and Kate to investigate together like Nick and Nora Charles in the Thin Man series. The married couple don't spend a lot of time together. Much of the book is given over to Doyle and his problems. As with the Beatrix Potter mysteries, the author(s) step out of the story to provide the history behind the story. This time it works slightly better because some of the history is shared by characters in the novel. This book would be appropriate for young adults and adults but not suitable for children.

Much of US Could See a Water Shortage
Much of US Could See a Water Shortage:
Californians use nearly 23 trillion gallons of water a year, much of it coming from Sierra Nevada snowmelt. But climate change is producing less snowpack and causing it to melt prematurely, jeopardizing future supplies.
Experts also say the Colorado River, which provides freshwater to seven Western states, will probably provide less water in coming years as global warming shrinks its flow.

The kids had a chance last week to begin to glaze some of their work that they had worked on earlier. As you can see, Celia is still very much aware of the camera whenever it is in her vicinity and Liam continues to focus on the task at hand. So interesting how the two can be so different even though we have tried to raise them with the same loving hand.
Of course, we long ago realized how different they were and now handle each kid in their own way - the trick being to keep it as fair as possible - for we will be called out instantly by one or the other if their seems to be a sniff of imbalance.
Also, last week, I got the opportunity to chaperone Liam's class to the Kennedy Museum. It was a great trip - had no idea that Kennedy's ordeal with PT109 left him and his crew stranded on islands for 9 DAYS!). Was really taken by the gathering room designed by IM Pei. Took a couple of shots with the phone of the shadows that were created:

postcard – -poetry, rhyme to reason
for Rhyme 2 reason — postcard stop by and join the fun…. a postcard and reply….
I sit in Avignon where kings once played
Surrounded by fortresses
Grim, imposing, locked
Hard against attack and hurt
We sip our wine
Bathed in sun delight
and I wonder about
the trembling child within
If she laughed,
splashed in the fountains
climbed trees held hands
and explored mysteries of long ago
Oh that you were near….
Avignon France, 2012
The nights are cold
and lonely now
and part of me longs
that I were there
But we both agreed
this needed break
might help me
to love again
I must remain
apart from you
until I can risk the pain
Yes, I like this, Bill. Wish I had done a romance postcard now. 🙂

Today Matthew only had a half day of school because of parent teacher conferences. He also has tomorrow and Friday off because of said conferences. I went to his conference today. He's doing really well but they said he gets easily distracted and he talks too much. I'm pretty sure he got that from Ken. (or me)
The thing I'm thankful for today is $20 coupons off of purchases that are even under $20. Because of said coupons I was able to buy a Christmas present for one of my children and 3 pairs of crazy knee high socks today for nothing. That's right. It was free. I didn't have to add stuff to meet a limit so my purchase of $19.51 cost me nothing...except for all the shoes I bought at famous footwear to earn said coupon. So worth it though!
In other news...Nicole continues to be doing really well learning at home. She's found her niche and I'm just trying to provide her with enough information because she can't seem to get enough of it! (except for history. We seem to fall asleep during movies.)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Sister in Law, RHONDA!!
I couldn't find a picture of her but she likes pickles so this is for her. :)
and now for the TMI section...
I need to buy new deodorant. I think mine is betraying me. If I'm around you and I stink, please tell me in a way as nice as possible. gracias.
Lastly, but not least-ly...
Will you pretty please with sugar on top help me earn my Personal Progress Medallion and Honor Bee by participating in my PP blog? I'd be most grateful! http://honorbee.blogspot.com/.

There is lots of laundry going on today, blankets, bedding, pajamas.
There are lots of kids taking baths and showers whether they want to or not.
The sickness is subsiding.
Everyone except for Laila is fever free this morning.
Abby is back to school today.
Cody, Rick, and I are still standing.
These are definitely steps in the right direction.
Unfortunately, in our house, at least, as children get better, they get whinier and grumpier.
Yesterday, they were so out of it, that they didn't have the energy.
Today, not so much.
I am going on very little sleep for the last 4 nights.
Antibiotics have been administered to the point that everyone is safe to be exposed to others.
Laila is proclaiming all day, "I am 'kick'" (sick).
"Yes, little sister, you are, and it makes your mama sad." I realized yesterday that this is her first antibiotic. I feel like I should take a picture or something.
Today is a day with many mixed emotions for our family.
Today we mourn the death of a precious little girl who has changed our lives, and we celebrate the fact that she is healed completely for the first time ever.
Hadley Rae has impacted peoples' lives in ways that only she could. God has used her greatly. Now, she is with Him, and although we feel a loss, we know that she is free to dance and sing, and in that we celebrate!! Her 12 short years have changed many people for a lifetime.
Here is the info about her service.
Hadley Rae and McHugh family,
We love you. We are so grateful to have your family in our lives. It is a privilege to journey with you. Thank you for that opportunity. You have inspired us, challenged us, and allowed your lives to be used by Him. Our family is forever changed by you.

Jennifer Niven's YA novel All the Bright Places sheds light on some serious issues.
Summary: Couples often have strange circumstances that bring them together, but for Violet and Theodore Finch, it's a bell tower at their school that unites them. Both of them are there for the same reason—to commit suicide. When Finch sees Violet leaning over the edge, though, he knows that he has to save her. From there their relationship starts to grow. Finch learns about the car accident that killed Violet's sister (leaving Violet with survivor's guilt). Violent learns about Finch's depression and his struggle at home with an abusive father. Together they start to journey through Indiana in search of the beauties and motivation to stay alive. As they become closer, school, their old friends, and their old interests start to fall to the wayside until one night sends their parents into a scared frenzy. The parents keep Violet and Finch apart, which only leads to a devastating end for Finch.
Review: Jennifer Niven has written many adult novels, which provides her with a perfect foundation to take on the YA themes she has throughout All the Bright Places. She writes about incredibly delicate and precarious incidents, and she does it without ever talking down to the reader through her characters and plot turns. The relationship between Finch and Violet grows organically and believably, which engages the reader and keeps them on the edge of occurrences. With switching points of view, Niven offers an insight into two different minds struggling with a similar dissatisfaction. The writing is tight, imaginative when needed, and purposeful to the plot.
Bottom Line: Nothing but sunshine for Niven's YA debut novel.
Audience: If you liked Go Ask Alice (anonymous) or Thirteen Reasons Why (Jay Asher) then you will be intimately intrigued with All the Bright Places.

HSQLDB is a powerful database engine. It is normally used to provided an embedded database functionality for java applications.
It is as simple as downloading a zip file, extracting it into your system and you have a functioning RDBMS.
After extracting the zip file, you should have the following (resumed) structure in your system:
/bin (scripts for running the server and utilities)
/demo (scripts and applet examples)
/doc (guess what?)
/lib (all binaries - including hsqldb.jar)
/src (all source code)
index.html (documentation about the distribution)
The hsqldb.jar is everything you need to run the database application. It contains the RDBMS, the driver and some tools (the database manager, the query tool and the command line tool).
Running the tools
To run some of the tools, enter the lib folder and run the following command, which will run the database manager.
java -cp hsqldb.jar org.hsqldb.util.DatabaseManager
The main classes for the tools deployed with the hqsldb.jar are:
- org.hsqldb.util.DatabaseManager
- org.hsqldb.util.DatabaseManagerSwing
- org.hsqldb.util.Transfer
- org.hsqldb.util.QueryTool
- org.hsqldb.util.SqlTool
HSQLDB may run in standalone (in-process) or server mode. There are three server modes, based on the protocol used for communications between the client and server and they are HSQLDB Server, Web Server and Servlet. It is also possible to run HSQLDB in a way that the database is not persistent and exists entirely in random access memory.
The default user and password for connecting to the database is "sa" / "sa".
For more information on this powerful tool, read the online manuals or the documentation provided with the distribution zip file in the doc folder.

Aero Knife is the new lightweight, razor-sharp non-stick kitchen knife that can cut anything smoothly without sticking. It is designed with holes creating less surface area for less friction.
The Aero Knife infomercial claims that Aero Knife is an impressively lightweight, ultra sharp kitchen knife that can cut through anything without trouble. It's light as air, cuts like a razor while preventing food from sticking to the surface. It is especially designed to have holes thus 60% less surface area which means that there's less friction when cutting. Aero Knife cuts twice as smooth. When cutting cheese with an ordinary knife, the cheese sticks to the blade and you have to push the knife hard. With Aero Knife, no force, strength or pressure needed because the cheese will slice right off. The blade is laser cut for stainless steel. It is tough enough to cut a 2x4 wood and sharp enough to cut a tomato. For cutting poultry meat, using the Aero Knife will give you a clean and smooth cut every time. Ordinary knife will crush boiled potato and it sticks to the blade making a huge mess. With Aero Knife, everything is smooth and clean. It can even cut meat in a breeze without sticking.
The cost of Aero Knife is $10.00 plus $7.99 shipping. The special TV offer allows a free gift which you will receive by paying the extra shipping fee of $6.99 for a total price of $24.98. This price was obtained from the As Seen on TV commercial page found at aeroknife.com; however, the company has since ceased selling Aero Knife and has taken down the website. Aero Knife may still be found for sale on Amazon or Ebay.
A good knife is the best thing that anyone can have in a kitchen. A great sharp knife is a prized possession of any chef. A good knife does not stick to the food or the cutting board while cutting and is very easy to use and extremely works well. The Aero Knife is one such knife that is designed in such a way that it cuts through any vegetables, fruits or meat like butter and in one clean movement.
The Aero Knife works just the way as any other knife works and is very lightweight. The Aero Knife cuts two times more smoothly than any regular knife that is available in the market. The design of he Aero Knife is such that it does not stick to the food that is being cut. It makes a clean cut through meat and vegetables and is very easy to use as well.
The Aero Knife is packed with features that would surpass the performance of any other regular knife that is out there.
- Non-stick Knife
- Aero Holes
- Reduced Cooking Time
- Carves
- Dices
- Cuts
- Aerodynamic Design
The amazing aerodynamic design creates very little friction when cutting anything and does therefore, does not let food stick. Every cut with the Aero Knife is a clean cut.
There are several advantages to using the Aero Knife when compared to using other knives. Using the Aero Knife for preparations drastically reduces cooking time. Even while slicing bread, a clean cut through to the base of the bread loaf is very difficult to achieve with a regular knife. With the Aero Knife, cutting through even loaves of bread is easy and clean. It cuts bread so well that there are no crumbs that are spilt as well.
The Aero Knife can be used to cut through all fruits and vegetables or even meat. Whether it is cutting, dicing, carving or chopping, a clean cut is what will be achieved with the Aero Knife. If there is any knife that can reduce cooking time it is the Aero Knife. There would never be a need to buy any other knife once the Aero Knife is bought.
Aero Knife is easy to use and is very sharp. The Aero Knife can be sharpened as well if needed after a lot of usage. It cuts through anything like butter without even crumbling the fruit or vegetable. Cutting boiled potatoes are quite a task as the knife usually gets stuck to the potato and the skin does not come off easily. Cutting a boiled potato with the Aero Knife is easy as the knife is built to reduce the surface area by 60% therefore making a clean cut through. The Aero Knife is easy to handle and is very light in weight as well.
There is no need to buy a knife every again once Aero Knife is bought. Expensive knives that are available in the market do not have the design that the Aero Knife has to compliment the performance that it offers. The time spent cutting vegetables and meat while cooking is faster because of the less effort, strength and pressure that are used while handling the light weighing Aero Knife.

I would not want to pay $20 or even $10 for it, but I am okay paying $3 for it, which is the regular price for it at local store.

This is a terrible knife. Not sharp. A complete waste. I purchased it even though I am skeptical of as seen on TV products on the recommendation of chef Ming Tsai. Very disappointed in him and the knife.

Im big on cutomer service...in a nut shell there is none...there is no one for u to speak to at all. Its all automated. Wth this sucks I want to speak to someone. One tv it says two knife and the free gift for 10 bucks plus free shipping this is not the case...it was like almkst 30 bucks which is cheap for two good knives... however ming sai is a very familiar face in the culinary industry and I was disappointed that there at the least was no customer service and to me thats is a big deal

Bottom line...the knife works. At $10, how can you go wrong? The good news stops there. Things all should know: There is no contact e-mail on the page for customer service. The only e-mail listed on the website sets off my A/V software as a bad site. There is no C.S. option when calling them. You have to buy a knife or hang up.

continued... No sales tax info is listed until AFTER you submit your credit card. This prevents you from seeing if there is a mistake like charging S.T. on shipping like some companies are trying to do. There is no mention of a separate s/h charge on the video...only in very tiny letters that I couldn't read. You are led to believe if you act now you are getting a special 2nd knife free, not for another charge. How would be able to see about free shipping as was advertised? No CSR.

Bri, Wishy, Sweet Wish, Sweet Wish of America….all the above…found out she is going to college. Okay, so we always knew she was going somewhere, but as you have heard me reiterate 100 times (enough already)….colleges give students an uneasy feeling about "getting in." So instead of hearing the expected: "You've been declined. Back that ass up." Wishy heard: "You've been accepted. Drop all your money in the bucket at the door."
When kids and parents talk about college, you'll hear them say: That school is so difficult to get into. What college did she get into? This whole "get into" thing is like there is a special secret combination.
When kids tell their friends "I got into XYZ College"...it sounds like they broke in. Like the doors were bolted shut, but they somehow found a way in. They crow bared the door …or turned themselves into Flat Stanley and slid under the door.
I prefer that kids come up with a new train of thought regarding "getting into." They need a new mantra: Repeat after me… "XYZ College is lucky to have me grace their campus for the next 4 years."
So before I say "Bri got into college"…I stop myself and say: "Sweet Wishy was admitted to college." Or even...welcomed, recognized and embraced. Okay, that might seem like a matter of semantics. But when you go to high school for 4 years…not miss a day, do all your homework, study hard for tests, write papers, get involved, play sports, cheer at games, volunteer…etc. etc. …you didn't finagle your way in…you worked your way in. And that is waaaaaaaay more than semantics.
Go Wishy!

sales, excluding coming months!Miguel Angel Baeyens de Arce Jun 24, 2010 1:25 PM (in response to Lars Schultz Hansen)
Hi Lars,
If you are not doing full accumulation, then set your month field in set analysis to be equal or less than the actual month
({$<invLineYear={$(=Max(invLineYear))}, invLineMonth={'<=$(Max(invLineMonth))'}>} NetAmount)
I personally prefer to flag the current year to date dates for all years in my application, so I would only accumulate for those values. But I guess this is more a design/display issue than an accumulation one, so you may change your bar background color to white or whatever your background color is if date is longer than today, on the [+] icon expanded in the Expressions tab.
Hope that helps

Hi Miguel,
Thank you for your feedback.
I'm doing a full accumulation on the YTD figures, so the set analysis approach doesn't seem to work.
I've tried to make the background criterias, but it doesn't seem to work either (I'm a QlikView rookie, so poerhaps thats the reason :-). I've used the following formulas for the background color criteria:
if( invLineMonth > today(), RGB(255 ,0, 0),RGB(0 ,128, 0))
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wring?

In First Cut the author, Albert Howard Carter, follows first year medical students at Emory University through their course in human dissection. In the anatomy lab, Carter, a humanities professor with a curiosity about the medical profession, observes the reactions of the students to the cadavers, their "silent instructors." The students overcome their initial discomfort with a dead body and begin to marvel at the intricacy of the human anatomy. The description of each phase of dissection is accompanied by the beautiful anatomical drawings from De Human Corporis Fabica by the 16th century artist and anatomist Andreas Versalius. Carter's father donated his body to a medical school and after watching the students gain a knowledge about and a respect for the cadavers, Carter decides to donate his own body.
The descriptions of the dissections and Versalius' drawings will give the general reader a basic appreciation of his or her own anatomy. Also, the reader will learn that the anatomy lab is not a ghoulish place but a place of learning and respect. For anyone interested in medical school, this book is a good introduction into what a medical student will experince in an anatomy lab.

Man, talk about frustrating...... We battle our way down here to Shelburne just to have all the weather windows close for a week. We arrived here today about 3:30pm and are at a dock at the yacht club along with 54 other boats waiting for weather.
We wanted to head to Yarmouth tomorrow but the forecast now is for 2 meter
swells and 30-35 knots of wind so I guess we have to stay put.
So, here stay and play the waiting game with everyone else.
Let's hope that things clear up for us.

We took a trip to Florida recently and I was amazed at how I felt as I boarded the plane. It was same as when I boarded the shuttle bus that would carry us from long-term parking to the terminal. I kept waiting for the fear to rise but it never did. Not too long ago I was frozen on the ground. Merely observing a plane overhead caused me to panic. To actually fly made me physically ill and I'd obsess over the trip for months in advance. The night before a return trip home -just four years ago- saw me curled up on the bathroom floor, sobbing. It was irrational and I knew it, but the fear had me gripped in its claws. It no longer controls me. I still don't like flying. I don't like how it makes me feel; I get the same feeling on an elevator

super light, i had no problem sleeping sideways is actually very comfortable.
Reviewed by Hiking fool from Colorado on Friday, April 15, 2016I'm laying on this pad now actually, super comfortable, warm, and when placed inside your sleeping bag even warmer, it's insane how well this fits your body, 100% would recommend and buy again
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Sean from Indiana on Wednesday, February 10, 2016This is my second Klymit sleeping pad. The other one I have is very comfortable and packs small. With this design and the cut outs in particular I am afraid of the durability of the product. The cutouts create lots of sharp angles that seem to get caught up when folding and rolling. This pad also have an additional inflation nozzle and a rubber bulb to inflate. This is one more protrusion and my forearm got to tired pumping the bulb and I gave up and blew it up with my mouth in no time. i don't understand why a mat that is specifically designed to reduce the weight as much as possible would include this superfluous bulb and nozzle. I will not be packing the bulb and hence will never used the additional connection point. I think I would have been better off getting another of the standard Klymit V design which I love.

Verified Buyer Reviewed by Lost Dutchman from Superstition Mountains on Thursday, December 3, 2015Wider? More supportive? Unique cutout design? I was taken it by this hype! This pad stinks. It is totally uncomfortable and did not keep me off the ground. The pump was a joke. After pumping it up and suffering while I laid on it, I deflated it and tried to pack it into the pack size advertised. It was a frustrating nightmare. I can't imagine trying to rely on this piece of.....useless equipment in the backcountry. This one went right back.
Reviewed by Cavebird from Gainesville, GA on Wednesday, November 18, 2015The only time I have been cold is when had to sleep on the snow, but I slept. I did have to return it for a leak at the high pressure pump port, and it was returned repaired and with caps to stop any leakage. I do tend to pump it up to a higher pressure to keep my 215 lb. 6'3" side sleeping body off the ground. Only take 4 breaths to get it primarily inflated. I have used it a lot, and still like how small it gets for my pack, and the weight/comfort ratio is great.
Question & Answer
Questions about this product? Get answers from community and staff experts.
"1. Does this pad include a pump, if so is it included in the total weight listed?
2. Is this pad meant to be used inside the sleeping bag?
3. Does this pad have an R value rating?"
1, There is a small pump. You blow up the pad with your mouth 95% of the way and then the last 5% with the very small pump. It's not really a pump just a hand-held rubber ball thing that attaches to the mattress - it weighs , im guessing - less than one half of an oz.
2. No, meant to be under the bag
3. Did not see R factor listed on packaging material. keeps you a few inches off the earth so some insulation value but, not reflective or any 'fancy' padding.
This is VERY comfortable to sleep on IF you sleep on your back. If you are a 'side-sleeper' I don't think this would work well because of how the 'segments' of material are configured.
"what is the thickness of this pad"
It is 1.5" thick. According to the product specs above: •Dimensions (LxWxH): 78 x 25 x 1.5"
The specs say 1.5" but really that's misleading. It's 1.5" at the pillow section, but the rest is quite thin, about 1"
