Honda's stunning new NSX edges closer to production
The futuristic update of Honda's iconic 90s sports car made its debut at last year's Detroit motor show but it returned to Motor City this week with some styling tweaks and a proposed production date of 2015.
A new aerodynamic grille cover is the first noticeable update to last year's concept and eye-catching alloy wheels add an extra dollop of visual drama.
The interior was unveiled for the first time this year and Honda has said it's just one direction the final product may take. Swathes of red leather and carbon fibre cover many surfaces while dials and binnacles are cleverly laid out so the driver can focus 100% on the road ahead.
The original NSX featured a 3-litre V6 that produced 270bhp and although the new version's powerplant boasts the same amount of cylinders, it will be mated to an electric motor and an all-wheel-drive system for potent performance figures.
Jon Ikeda, head of design on the NSX project told Autocar: "This project is evolving all the time, and we wanted to reflect that with the concept. What is most amazing is how little the exterior has changed. What you see on the exterior is a more focused look at our goal of creating the modern performance car. It must be futuristic, be simple but technical, and express the performance and technology leadership we want to take."

The "IN" Condition
User Defined Data Type
Scenario: Selecting List of Products
Create A New User Defined Data Type
Create Stored Procedure
Passing User Defined Data Type In Code
Isolation is one of the properties of SQL Transaction. Isolating / separating transactions from each other to maintain Data Integrity in Database is called Isolation.Before going to implementation part of isolation, we will understand why isolation is required in database ?Why Is Isolation Level Required ?While developing large enterprise/public networking kind of applications where a huge number of users access same Database, same Table and at the same Time, Data concurrency situation may occur. We will discuss this situation into 4 parts:
Loss of DataLet's take an example - Suppose, there are 2 users accessing the same table, at the same moment, to update the same row. Each transaction is unaware of the other transaction. User A updates the row and then User B updates the same row. What happened here is the last transaction made my User B overwrites the updated record of User A and User A lost his/her data in the table.Dirty ReadThis is otherwise known as Uncommitted Dependency. Let's take another example - Suppose, User A and User B are accessing a table row at the same time. User A wants to read and User B wants to update the row. In the friction of time difference, transactions are executed. So, when User B not yet updated the row (during the update process), User A reads that row and got the old record which may not be correct for his/her operation. This situation is known as Dirty Read.Phantom ReadThis is also known as Phantom Problem. Let's again take another example - Suppose User A is granted to insert a row but the same time User B inserted that row. Now, when User A tries to insert, he/she can't. Then, he/she will get angry and say- "Hey you committed that this is available for me to insert, but you cheated on me and granted someone else to do so !" . You may/might get this problem while the reservation of Train/Movie ticket.Inconsistency AnalysisThis is also known as Non-Repeatable Problem. Let's take the same example of User A and User B. Suppose, User A executes a transaction having three queries - a stored procedure or transaction or individual query with a batch. 1st query is to read a table row, the 2nd query is to update that, and the 3rd query is to read that again. By doing this, User A wants to generate the report. As we know User B is not a gentleman he always spoils the intention of User A, he accessed the table row in between the two Read queries of User A and did some operation like Delete ! Now, User A has already modified the data and when he wants to read it again, he is surprised ! He got inconsistency in data.In the above-mentioned points, we understood that - as User A is a weak person, User B always plays with User A and forcefully does it's job by dominating him. But as a Database Administrator or Developer, we need to help the User A. Now, we have a weapon called "Isolation Level" by using which we can cooperate User A to maintain its integrity.Isolation LevelsSQL Server provides 5 Isolation levels to implement with SQL Transaction to maintain data concurrency in the database.Isolation level is nothing but locking the row while performing some task, so that other transaction can not access or will wait for the current transaction to finish its job.Let's write a transaction without Isolation level.BEGIN TRANSACTION MyTransaction BEGIN TRY UPDATE Account SET Debit=100 WHERE Name='John Cena' UPDATE ContactInformation SET Mobile='1234567890' WHERE Name='The Rock' COMMIT TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION SUCCESS' END TRY BEGIN CATCH ROLLBACK TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION FAILED' END CATCH In the above code snippet, we have not implemented Isolation Level. Therefore, there are chances of data concurrency. Now, we will go through all the five Isolation levels and find the solution for our situation.Read UncommittedWhen this level is set, the transaction can read uncommitted data resulting in the Dirty Read problem. With this isolation level, we allow a transaction to read the data which is being updated by other transaction and not yet committed. Suppose User A is trying to read a row which is being updated by User B. Here, we are allowing User A to read the un-updated/uncommitted data i.e old data.ExampleSET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED BEGIN TRANSACTION MyTransaction BEGIN TRY UPDATE Account SET Debit=100 WHERE Name='John Cena' UPDATE ContactInformation SET Mobile='1234567890' WHERE Name='The Rock' COMMIT TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION SUCCESS' END TRY BEGIN CATCH ROLLBACK TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION FAILED' END CATCH Read Committed
This prevents Dirty Read. When this level is set, the transaction can not read the data that is being modified by the current transaction. This will force user to wait for the current transaction to finish up its job. Suppose User A is trying to read a row which is being updated by User B. Here, we are asking User A to wait for the User B to finish its update task, and giving the updated/correct data to User A. But the problem with this level is - it can't resolve Phantom Read or Inconsistency Analysis i.e it asks User A to wait for Read but not for update or insert.ExampleSET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED BEGIN TRANSACTION MyTransaction BEGIN TRY UPDATE Account SET Debit=100 WHERE Name='John Cena' UPDATE ContactInformation SET Mobile='1234567890' WHERE Name='The Rock' COMMIT TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION SUCCESS' END TRY BEGIN CATCH ROLLBACK TRANSACTION MyTransaction PRINT 'TRANSACTION FAILED' END CATCH Repeatable Read
This level does every work that Read Committed does. but it has one additional benefit. User A will wait for the transaction being executed by User B to execute it's Update query as well, like Read Query. But Insert query doesn't wait, this also creates Phantom Read problem.ExampleSET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL REPEATABLE READ Snapshot
This level takes a snapshot of current data. Every transaction works on its own copy of data. When User A tries to update or insert or read anything, we ask him to re-verify the table row once again from the starting time of its execution, so that he can work on fresh data. with this level. We are not giving full faith to User A that he is going to work on fresh data but giving high-level changes of data integrity.ExampleSET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT Serializable
This is the maximum level of Isolation level provided by SQL Server transaction. We can prevent Phantom Read problem by implementing this level of isolation. It asks User A to wait for the current transaction for any kind of operation he wants to perform.ExampleSET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE
Isolation level also has a problem called "Dead Lock"- "Both the transactions lock the object and waits for each other to finish up the job". Dead Lock is very dangerous because it decreases the concurrency and availability of database and the database object. We will discuss Dead-Lock in the later part of this topic.Hope, I covered the necessary points that can help many of us to implement Isolation level in the project with the identification of real situations. Believe me friends, it is a good practice to implement Transaction with "Isolation Level" in every type of projects.

In this post, I will show you how to using bigint with FORMATMESSAGE. SQL Server 2016 added the FORMATMESSAGE function. According to Books On Line, FORMATMESSAGE constructs a message from an existing message in sys.messages or from a provided string. The functionality of FORMATMESSAGE resembles that of the RAISERROR statement. However, RAISERROR prints the message immediately, while FORMATMESSAGE returns the formatted message for further processing.So let's take a look at this new function, run the followingSELECT FORMATMESSAGE('Signed int %i, %i', 50, -50) SELECT FORMATMESSAGE('Unsigned int %u, %u', 50, -50); Here is the output if you run that--------------------------------------------Signed int 50, -50Unsigned int 50, 4294967246Here is what the type specifications that you can use areType specification Representsd or i Signed integero Unsigned octals Stringu Unsigned integerx or X Unsigned hexadecimalWe used i to denote a signed integer, we also used u to denote a unsigned integerLet's look at another example, this time we are using a variable. The variable will be an integer and we are using i as the type specificationDECLARE @Val int = 1SELECT FORMATMESSAGE('The value you supplied %i is incorrect!', @Val);Here is the output---------------------------------------The value you supplied 1 is incorrect!That worked without a problem. Now let's use a variable of the bigint data type, we are using the same type specification as beforeDECLARE @Val bigint = 1SELECT FORMATMESSAGE('The value you supplied %i is incorrect!', @Val);Here is the output---------------------------------------------------------------------------Error: 50000, Severity: -1, State: 1. (Params:).
The error is printed in terse mode because there was error during formatting.Tracing, ETW, notifications etc are skipped.As you can see that did not work, so what can we do?One thing we can do is converting the value to a varchar and then use s as the type specificationDECLARE @Val bigint = 1SELECT FORMATMESSAGE('The value you supplied %s is incorrect!', CONVERT(VARCHAR(100),@Val));You will again get this as output---------------------------------------So converting to varchar worked, but what if we want to use a bigint data type without converting to a varchar?Another way is to use I64d as the type specificationDECLARE @Val bigint = 1<br />SELECT FORMATMESSAGE('The value you supplied %I64d is incorrect!', @Val);You will get this---------------------------------------
The value you supplied 1 is incorrect!So there you have it, if you want to use bigint with FORMATMESSGAE use I64d as the type specification, or convert to varchar and use s as the type specification.
This article is about Auto Increment ID Column using nvarchar datatype in SQL Server 2016 . SQL server provides identity property to get auto-increment record values where the datatype used is "int". This article explains a way to use nvarchar datatype column to get auto-increment record values.e.g. S00001, E00001, INV00001. (Here there are prefix like S, E, INV used to denote the record ids.)This article provides a solution to use alphanumeric record ids incremented automatically.SolutionCreate an Employee table as below,
Here "ID" column is for storing record id as similar to Serial No of any entry made. "EmployeeNo" column is used to store the alphanumeric auto increment id. "Name" stores the name of the Employee. Create a Windows Form with a TextBox and a Button control
The above figure shows the use of a textbox to enter name in the "employee" table where the id is auto-incremented.Code Import the NameSpace
Create 2 methods OpenConnection() and CloseConnection() to handle the SQL Server Connection object. private void OpenConnection(SqlConnection con) { con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=.; Initial Catalog=demodb; Integrated Security=True"; if (con.State == ConnectionState.Closed) { con.Open(); } } private void CloseConnection(SqlConnection con) { con.Close(); }
On the Insert button click the id is auto-incremented and the relevant data is inserted in the employee table. (id, employeeno and name) SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(); OpenConnection(con); string id = AutoIncrementID(); int idLimit = 7; string eno = "E" + ZeroAppend("0000000" + id, idLimit); string query = "insert into employee values ('" + id + "', '" + eno + "', '" + txtName.Text + "')"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, con); int i = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); if (i > 0) { MessageBox.Show("Data Added", "Add", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information); } CloseConnection(con);
Here a method AutoIncrementID() is used to do the task of auto-incrementing based on the last entry inserted in the table. private string AutoIncrementID() { SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(); OpenConnection(con); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT ISNULL(MAX(ID),0) + 1 from employee", con); SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader(); string id = null; if (dr.Read()) { id = dr[0].ToString(); } CloseConnection(con); return id; } //The function ZeroAppend is used to append "0" after the prefix to the code. public static string ZeroAppend(string data, int idLimit) { return data.Substring(data.Length - idLimit); }
This is something interesting; i.e., how to enforce the compiler to use the inner join instead of the outer join. Let's take an example. We have two tables State_Tab and City_Tab. An SQL JOIN clause is used to combine rows from two or more tables, based on a common field between them. The most common type of join is: SQL INNER JOIN (simple join). An SQL INNER JOIN returns all rows from multiple tables where the join condition is met.
Now, we write two queries, using outer join, and compare the execution plan of both the queries.Query 1
Query 2
We can see that both the queries use the left outer join but the second query implements the inner join, instead of outer join, because for "On condition", we define the 1=1, which will be always true, so the query optimizer converts the left outer join to cross join due to the "Where condition". This cross join will convert into the inner join.
Now, I will show you how to Get The Header Information Of A Table in SQL Server. If someone asks the question, "How do I get the header information of the table in SQL Server?" the first solution that arises in our mind will be "use any condition that never matches," like 1=0 or 2=0. However, in this case, we only get the header information of the table, and no result will return.
It is true that using the above solution, we will not get any data and the result will be the header information of our table.
But this is not the best solution because in this case, SQL Server reads all rows and compares the conditions each time. That increases the turnaround time and resource complexity.For this, SQL Server provides the "SET FMTONLY ON" keyword. "SET FMTONLY ON" returns only metadata to the client. It can be used to test the format of the response without actually running the query. This method returns header information without performing any read operation.
Have you ever been in a situation where you've got to clear down some data within a database that's chock filled with constraints but don't desire to wipe out your precious relationships, indices and all that other jazz?
I found myself in a similar situation earlier this week, and required a clear-down script that might wipe out all of the data within a whole database, without being bothered by any existing constraints. Here it is. USE @YourTable; EXEC sp_MSForEachTable "ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ALL" EXEC sp_MSForEachTable "DELETE FROM ?" EXEC sp_MSForEachTable "ALTER TABLE ? WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT ALL" GO The script itself takes advantage of an undocumented stored procedure within SQL Server called sp_MSForEachTable that will actually iterate through all of the tables within a given database.Now that we know we are going to be looping through each of the tables within the specified database, let's see what is going to happen to each of the tables.
ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ALLThis will disable any constraint checking that is present on the table (so, operations like deleting a primary key or a related object won't trigger any errors).DELETE FROM ?This will delete every record within the table.ALTER TABLE ? WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT ALLThis re-enables the constraint checking, bringing your table back to its original state, sans data.It is very important that you properly scope this query to the table that you are targeting to avoid any crazy data loss. While I don't think that you could just leave that out and execute on master, I wouldn't want to even risk testing that out (although feel free to try it out and let me know if it nukes everything).
ERROR - "Cannot resolve the collation conflict between SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS within the up to operation."
Don't panic if you get this error while joining your tables. there's an easy way to solve this. It happens because of the different collation settings on 2 columns we are joining.The first step is to figure out what are the two collations that have caused the conflicts.Let us assume that collation has not been set at the column level and instead at the db level. Then, we've to execute two straightforward statements as below.Statements
One more thing to make a note of here is that if you are on SharePoint, you will get an error as following.Latin_General_CI_AS_KS_WS. If you are on any other database and use the default settings, you may get this SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CI_AS.Now, we have to do something similar to CAST, called Collate (FOR Collation).Refer to the example below. select * from Demo1.dbo.Employee emp join Demo2.dbo.Details dt on (emp.email =dt.email COLLATE SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CI_AS)

In this post, I will tell you about the LAG and LEAD functions in SQL Server. These two functions are analytical functions in SQL Server. In actual scenarios we need to analyze the data, for example, comparing previous sales data.
The Lag and Lead functions support the window partitioning and ordering clauses in SQL Server. The Lag and Lead functions do not support the window frame clause.LAGThe Lag function gives the previous column values based on ordering.LEADThe Lead function gives the next column values based on ordering.Demo CREATE TABLE DBO.SALES ( PROD_ID INT , SALES_YEAR INT, SALES_AMOUNT INT ) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2009,10000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2010,9000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2011,8000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2012,7000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2013,14000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2014,18000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(1,2015,15000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(2,2013,12000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(2,2014,8000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(2,2015,16000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(3,2012,7000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(3,2013,8000) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(3,2014,9700) INSERT INTO DBO.SALES(PROD_ID,SALES_YEAR,SALES_AMOUNT) VALUES(3,2015,12500) SELECT * FROM DBO.SALES
The following example shows the Previous Year Sales Amount.SELECT *, LAG(SALES_AMOUNT) OVER(ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [Prevoius Year Sales] FROM DBO.SALES
The following example shows the Next Year Sales Amount. SELECT * , LEAD(SALES_AMOUNT) OVER(ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [Next Year Sales] FROM DBO.SALES
The following example shows the Previous Year Next Year Sales Amount using the partition by clause. SELECT *, LAG(SALES_AMOUNT) OVER(PARTITION BY PROD_ID ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [PREVOIUS YEAR SALES] , LEAD(SALES_AMOUNT) OVER(PARTITION BY PROD_ID ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [NEXT YEAR SALES] FROM DBO.SALES
The following example shows an offset other than 1.The offset is by default 1. If we want an offset other than 1 then we need to provide 2 argument values in the Lag and Lead functions. SELECT * , LAG(SALES_AMOUNT,2) OVER(ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [PREVOIUS YEAR SALES] , LEAD(SALES_AMOUNT,2) OVER( ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [NEXT YEAR SALES] FROM DBO.SALES
The following example shows replacing the null with various values: SELECT * , LAG(SALES_AMOUNT,2,0) OVER(ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [PREVOIUS YEAR SALES] , LEAD(SALES_AMOUNT,2,0) OVER( ORDER BY PROD_ID ,SALES_YEAR) [NEXT YEAR SALES] FROM DBO.SALES
In this article, I am going to tell you how to create a procedure in the real time scenario. A stored procedure is a set of SQL statements, which has been created and stored in the database as an object. Stored procedure will accept the input and output parameters, so that a single procedure can be used over the network by several users, using different input. Stored procedure will reduce the network traffic and increase the performance.
Real time scenarioStep 1: Create a table to describe and create the stored procedure. create table Product ( ProductId int primary key, ProductName varchar(20) unique, ProductQty int, ProductPrice float ) Step 2: Insert some value to the describe scenario. insert product values(1,'Printer',10,4500) insert product values(2,'Scanner',15,3500) insert product values(3,'Mouse',45,500) Step 3: Check your table with the inserted value. select * from product Step 4: Real time scenario is given below:Create a stored procedure, which is used to perform the requirements, given below:
Before inserting, check the detail about the product name. If the product name is available, update an existing product qty + inserted product qty,
create procedure prcInsert @id int, @name varchar(40), @qty int, @price float as begin declare @cnt int declare @p float select @cnt=COUNT(ProductId)from Product where [email protected] if(@cnt>0) begin update Product set [email protected] where [email protected] select @p=ProductPrice from Product where [email protected] if(@p<@price) begin update Product set [email protected] where [email protected] end end else begin insert Product values(@id,@name,@qty,@price) end end

There are a lot of really neat things going on at VMworld this year, and you can find some of them at the Brocade booth (#1513) and speaking sessions. One in particular I want to highlight is the Brocade session discussing how to leverage VMware vCenter Operations Manager (vCOps) to provide a comprehensive Virtual Infrastructure view comprising of, for the very first time, the SAN domain. The session is presented by Chip Copper and Didier Stolpe, and is being held on Wednesday, Aug 28, from 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM in Moscone West, Room 3018. So with those logistical details settled, what's going on in the session itself?
The data center is becoming more and more virtualized, and fibre channel SAN provides the high performance foundation for these environments. As we all know, when it comes to SAN, business continuity is paramount. As organizations connect their FC SAN to virtualized servers, they need to do so in a manner that provides visibility into the SAN for troubleshooting and monitoring from VMware management solutions, exposing a single pane a glass and consistent user experience across the compute/network/storage infrastructure.
With the need for visibility in mind, Brocade and VMware are collaborating to simplify operations management in today's highly virtualized SAN fabrics. The Brocade SAN Analytic Management Pack for vCOps enables organizations to take advantage of Brocade Fabric Vision, a fabric instrumentation framework that allows for deep, proactive monitoring. By actively monitoring SAN fabrics via Fabric Vision, the SAN Analytic Management Pack can accurately pinpoint where abnormalities occur.
I won't get into all of them here (you can go to the session for the deep info!), but some of the great features the SAN Analytic Management Pack includes are:
This is a really cool tool for the management and visibility of FC SAN in virtualized environments, and if you are dealing with SAN maintenance and operations and are going to be at VMworld, I definitely recommend checking out the session. If you can't make it to the speaking session, Brocade also runs a demo at the booth (#1513), so be sure to stop by!

If food is making us sick, fitness is causing us pain, weight loss isn't happening, happiness is drifting- it's time to get in the kitchen...and the emporium.
I like to use pink himalayan sea salt in the below recipe's and as my main salt.
Autoimmune Paleo Dinner Rolls:
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 25-30 minutes
Total time: 35-45 minutes
Yield: 8 rolls
- 1 and 1/4 cups yuca flour (aka tapioca flour/starch)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour, sifted before measuring
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp unrefined finely ground salt
- 1/4 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp gelatin (red canister of Great Lakes -- Collagen Hydrolysate will NOT work)
- 2/3 cup filtered water
- 2 tsp raw apple cider vinegar
- about 2-3 Tbsp olive oil, for brushing roll tops
Cooking Directions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Measure dry ingredients (yuca/tapioca flour/starch, coconut flour, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder) into a large mixing bowl and stir to combine evenly.
- Add water to a small saucepan and slowly sprinkle gelatin on top to "bloom" it. Do not let the dry gelatin clump as you do this. Once all gelatin has is wet, heat over medium low until all gelatin is dissolved, stirring as needed.
- Pour gelatin and apple cider vinegar into the dry ingredients and stir to form the dough. Let the dough cool for a few minutes.
- If the dough is too sticky after cooling, sprinkle 1 Tbsp of yuca flour on the outside of the dough. You can also dust your hands with some flour, too.
- Knead and work the dough for just a minute before forming your rolls. This will also help work in any extra yuca flour that you added to the outside.
- Divide dough into 8 equal-sized pieces and roll them into balls. Optional: score the tops of the rolls with an "X" shape using a sharp knife. NOTE: balls should hold their shape without collapsing. If they do not, see notes about working with the dough above the recipe.
- Place rolls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and brush the tops generously with olive oil. Bake for 10 minutes, then brush with olive oil again. Bake an additional 10 minutes, then brush one more time with oil. Return to the oven for about 5 more minutes, or until the rolls are golden and color and offer some resistance when pressed in the middle.
- Best enjoyed immediately out of the oven, but may be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for several days after cooking. Reheat in a 350F oven for several minutes until warmed though. Enjoy!
Paleo English Muffins (from Every Last Crumb)
These paleo English muffins are nut-free, grain-free, and egg-free and come from Brittany Angell's new cookbook Every Last Crumb. Enjoy them with butter or ghee and jam, bacon and eggs, or, like I did, as hamburgers!
Prep time: 25 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Yield: 4 English muffins
- 207 grams lukewarm water (about a scant 1 cup)
- 1 Tbsp instant yeast
- 2 tsp coconut palm sugar (I recommend sucanat instead)
- 127 grams potato or sweet potato starch (about 2/3 cup plus 2 tsp)
- 72 grams coconut flour (about 1/3 cup plus 2 Tbsp)
- 30 grams tapioca starch (about 1/4 cup)
- 3/4 tsp xanthan gum or guar gum
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt (I recommend unrefined sea salt)
- 64 grams Spectrum shortening (about 1/3 cup --- and I just have to say WHY in the WORLD isn't leaf lard listed as the shortening of preference in this book?? :-P That's what I use in all my paleo baking, including this recipe, and it tastes SO GOOD. It is the original shortening your great-grandma would've used, after all!)
Cooking Directions
- In a small bowl, mix together the lukewarm water, yeast, and sugar. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the potato starch, coconut flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, and salt.
- Stir the yeast mixture and shortening into the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated and a dough forms. The dough will be fairly wet and sticky.
- Oil a large skillet and the inside of each of 4 English muffin rings (see Notes). Place the rings in the skillet
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and place a portion in each ring. Brush the tops liberally with water.
- Cover the skillet and place over low heat for 1 minute. Turn off the heat, keeping the English muffins covered, and allow them to rise for 15 to 18 minutes.
- Turn the burner back on to medium-low heat. Keeping the lid on the skillet, cook the English muffins for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and flip them.
- Cover and cook for another 5 to 6 minutes, until golden brown on the bottom. Remove the rings.
- Cover the skillet and cook for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the finished English muffins from the skillet and let cool completely before breaking open with a fork and toasting. Store extras at room temperature in a sealed container, or freezer for another day.
- NOTES: You can create your own English muffin rings by folding aluminum foil over itself. Use metal paper clips to hold them together. If you find that your English muffins are not fully cooked through, lower the heat and cook them longer. You can continue to cook a muffin in the skillet even if it has been cut open.

Everyone loves to travel, explore and experience something new and exciting. To really travel involves much more than just seeing gorgeous landscapes. All of your senses are important to really get a good travel experience. You hear different sounds, different songs different stories and different accents. You smell the scent of different perfumes, the fragrance of different smokes and essences, different spices, different foods and different locations. You taste different drinks, unique recipes, cultural foods and much more. You feel different fabrics, the difference between beach sands, the chill or warmth of the sea… Sight plays a small part in a true traveling expedition and there is no reason for a visually impaired or even blind person to refrain from traveling just because they cannot see. Here are just a few tips for visually impaired travelers or for families that are taking a visually impaired member along on a long expedition.
Joining a club can make everything easier
When you join a club or membership everything about traveling becomes a lot easier and more affordable. The club can sort out your traveling arrangements for you, will book your accommodation for you, plan all of your excursions for you and estimate a total travel expense for you. They are also able to do this much more affordably because they already have all of their prices and travel routes in place and they accommodate thousands of travelers every year. Occidental Vacation Club is a terrific holiday club for the visually impaired to consider because they offer travel packages with luxury accommodation and travel routes in terrific locations.
Take along your own connection
If you don't want to be stuck using some slow Wi-Fi connection then you might want to take along your own internet package and get international roaming. This is especially a good idea for visually impaired individuals because you can still enjoy zoom and speech technology for your special needs.
Group travels are best
It is always best to travel along with a group if you are blind or visually impaired. There are just more people around that can help you if you get stuck in a bad situation and you don't have to rely on a single friend or family member for all of your special needs. If everyone pitches in, everyone will get to enjoy their holiday.
Look for travel discounts
A lot of touring firms, transportation companies and even excursion companies offer terrific traveling discount to disabled individuals. Look for these travel discounts so you can get much more out of your holiday.
Plan your trip ahead
This is probably the most important tip for a great holiday experience. Visually impaired individuals or the blind has to be incredibly close to objects to see them or they have to touch to see. This is a major problem in most museums and tourist attractions since most of these don't allow touching and are greatly barred off. There are however a lot of famous museums and attractions that are more than willing to accommodate disabled travelers. They will allow the blind to touch collectible objects or even enter certain restricted areas. The only catch is that you will have to arrange and request ahead to get approval.

New UCLA basketball coach Steve Alford may have changed his opinion on how he handled the Pierre Pierce incident in 2002.
But the Westmont High School product said his respect for his former coach at Iowa always will be strong.
"Coach Alford — I have nothing but lots of respect for him," Pierce, 29, told the Tribune on Friday. "I wish him the best, always will. He's a great guy, great coach, great father."

A woman once told me that I need to learn to be kind to myself.
I was reentering the world after a deep depression, and finding a life that I didn't know I'd had. I was in the process of both beginning and ending relationships. I was no longer panicking daily. I was beginning to store memories again.
She knew all this, and I told her I was doing better. She laughed, and said "you still need to do it."
I called (or maybe emailed?) her and asked what she meant. I don't remember her answer, but that that night, I stopped by a bakery and bought a slice of chocolate cake.
I ate it at my university-issued desk in the dorm room I once hated. The window was open. Someone in the courtyard was playing Joni Mitchell.
This past few days? They were hard ones. Pedestrian culprits – long hours, insomnia, crap food hoovered in inconvenient places. I came to the end of the week depleted.
My work follows a cycle that peaks in March. My hours will go bonkers, rhythms thrown out the window. My stress levels go up, sleep goes down. I read less, workout less (though my job itself becomes physical), eat worse. I once described this season as "hell, but so great," because even though it's hard, it's powerfully rewarding. That being said, this weekend is the last entirely free weekend that I'll have in a while, and I'm savoring it.
I went grocery shopping yesterday afternoon, and the teenager who rang me up sang "My Girl" under his breath. I was so delighted (right up to the point when he pointed at the frozen pizzas and asked if I have teenagers. Kid, I'm 24!) I nearly cried.
Today, my plan is to be nice to myself. This sounds so self-indulgent I almost can't stand it, but I think practicing simple kindness towards myself will do me good.
I'm going to cook. I have a fridge full of fresh food (finally!), and I'm going to give myself time to follow a detailed recipe I clipped from a magazine several years ago. So rarely do I enjoy creating a meal.
I'm going to read. Amber Dermont's The Starboard Sea is captivating, but I'm also craving my weathered copy of Anne's House of Dreams. Since I was eleven, I've read all eight books in the Anne of Green Gables series in the spring. Last year, I didn't, and it felt like I leapfrogged something important.
It's rare for my days to feel loose and open. Even when I'm "free," I border my time, hem myself in with private plans. You know what feels radically kind today? To not do that.
The sun is out. Last night's dusting of snow is gone, and tomorrow, the temperature is supposed to reach the 60's. (And Minnesota said amen!). Two years ago (two!), I bought a candle that smelled so good I put it into a drawer. I placed the candle underneath my favorite piece of artwork (a drawing someone gave to my grandparents on their wedding day), and lit it. In my cupboard, I have cookies that taste best when they're eaten one at a time.
Too often, I catch myself thinking "why can't it all be easier?" Sometimes, it is.
Yesterday, I put pink tulips on my table, because when I was a little girl, my mother painted a border of tulips along the molding of my bedroom. I loved their pink, purple, and yellow. In the spring, I would try to pick them.
Kindness, sometimes, is easy like this.

The Bible is TRULY God's Word!!
RE: The Bible is TRULY God's Word!!
Yea, I agree with Malleus. I do want to engage someone in conversation. I like to start with reason to help them see their error and to find my flaws that I still need to work through. But, it is pretty easy to tell when the conversation departs from reason. It seems that whenever I try to have a logical discussion with some religious people, they end up telling me that the Holy Spirit is going to have to reveal the truth to me and that they will pray for me. That pretty much ends the conversation because it's no longer about reason and logic. You can't really argue with the Holy Spirit's "revelation". Or, sometimes they will say faith is a gift and I need that gift from God. At any rate, I would still like to know the answer to my original post if there are any ideas out there.
RE: The Bible is TRULY God's Word!!
Well I ask them if they know how the Bible was put together? If they say no, then I tell them several facts.
How the Order of Nicea to establish what was cannon the bible not by God but by what was fitting to the power of the Churches.
That numerous translations have lead to massive changes over time in interpretation and understanding of some of the basic concepts.
Or how Moses's is supposedly the author of the Torah despite parts of it including his funeral and events after his death.
Or how there is considered two written accounts of genesis because they were at separate times one is noted as Yahweh and the other EL because how they refereed to God.
If they don't care and say it's all inspired by God so details like translation errors somehow are all God's will... then I'll just tell them you believe what you want but without evidence convincing others is folly.

I like your approach, but here in the bible belt the OT is old news and rarely considered. SO when its brought up, stuff about Moses and others...they quickly jump to the NT and start yammering on about how gods ultimate sacrifice (suicide) is the most beautiful thing....blah blah blah....typical cult jargon.
For the most part Christians have a 'personal experience' and then spend their research in the areas of the bible that the Sunday school agenda tells them to. They dare not venture into other dangerous terrirory..not without an apologist!
I know as i have been there...done that. Funny, i keep having those 'personal experiences' just like the day i was saved...but they are at really good movies and concerts.

Treatment Services
Your first day takes some time. Please make sure you have your morning free. All of our clinics are taking new patients. The intake days vary from each clinic, so please check our FAQ page in the clinics locations page to find out what days the clinic closest to you accepts new patients.
Once you check in, you will meet your counselor to go over intake paperwork. Your counselor will explain everything you will need to know about treatment, and also get to know you better to improve your treatment. You will be given a patient handbook to read over, which explains more on methadone and suboxone treatment. If you happen to lose your handbook, you can get another copy under the patients rights tab above.
After meeting the counselor, you will meet our nurses and doctor of the clinic. At the end of the intake process, you will be prescribed a daily dose of medication.
While your medication plays a vital role in recovery, regular counseling sessions improve overall success and quality of treatment. Your counselor has education and experience to help you with any obstacles or issues during your treatment.
Along with individual counseling, our clinic also provide group counseling. We provide group counseling to patients to help patients who may be going through similar difficulty. If you have an idea for a group session, ask your counselor and see if a group can be started.
Remember: Your counselor is there to make sure you have the highest level of success in your treatment. Be sure to utilize their knowledge and education for optimal treatment.
Methadone is a daily prescription. For new patients, we require you to come in daily. This way you can ask any questions you may have with any of the staff. This also helps you get a better understanding of how treatment works. Your counselor will be there on a daily basis as well to help you in any way. This also helps our nurses determine the best treatment options for you.
With time, you are able to receive take home medication. With positive progress in treatment, we provide the following privileges according to your progress in treatment:
Your treatment is 100% confidential. We will not disclose any of your information to anyone. If at some point you need to release information regarding your treatment, you will have to complete and sign a release of information form.

Photographs of ice and water and the glyphs they leave on the Alaska landscape. Liquid or solid, transient or timeless, water animates more than the food chain. In its wake, water's aesthetics sharpen the eye.
Water's transparency burnishes all it touches, reflecting what it sees. Like a mirror, it adopts the colors and textures of the sky, trees and the surfaces it flows across.
Water drives weather, moves mountains, feeds crops and provides cultural and commerical access. When it's healthy and plentiful communities prosper. For those who listen closely, it fuels imaginations and lubricates the poet's voice. Its manifold capacity, along with evidence of a changing climate, elevates water's central role in our lives.
A project documenting at-risk values involves a 70-sq.-mile watershed in the boreal forest. A few miles southwest of Fairbanks, the area is centered on Ester Dome, an upland prominence and part of the Yukon-Tanana Terrane.
Ester Dome's (elev. 2,400 ft.) watershed is 150 miles south of the Arctic Circle, a place where it is not uncommon to find minus 40 F in January and 95 F in July. The region is semiarid, with about 10 inches of rain per year. Annual snowfall totals 50-70 inches.
Tracking creeks downstream, around the seasons, from riffle to torrent to frozen cataract, presents discoveries reflecting their origins. Wild and disorderly, pregnant with complexity and emotion. Isolated in the camera, a transect yields images thick with metaphor, ambiguity and humor.
Finding significance in the ordinary integrates awareness and expands gratitude, a synthesis of wordless recognition. Seeing this way uncoils visual experience, confirming perception feeds reciprocating circuits, heart and eyes.

The three major sources for promoting a yard sale online include Facebook, Craigslist and Twitter. Facebook is helpful, as friends and family can share the information with their Facebook friends. Craigslist is a useful resource, as it targets neighborhoods, so it is more likely to reach the community members seeking yard sales. Twitter should not be overlooked, because of the use of hashtags such as #yardsale and #(yourcommunity).Continue Reading
Facebook, Craigslist and Twitter are all free ways to promote a yard sale online. Facebook allows for users to create event notices that can be used to invite friends. There are also many yard sale groups on Facaebook that are grouped by communities. When using Craigslist, it is important to list important information, such as the address and times for the sale. Take pictures of the items for sale, and share the pictures on Facebook and Twitter. Post what is unique about the piece and think of clever descriptions to draw attention.
Traditional methods of promoting yard sales are generally reliable. A classified ad in the local newspaper and flyers throughout the neighborhood remain useful tools. Use poster board and markers to make directional and informative signs to post at intersections near the sale. Use social media to encourage shoppers to look for the signs on the way to the sale.Learn more about Advertising

About Us
Married Adults.com
MoviesWithoutNudity.com (MWN) is a companion website to MarriedAdults.com. MWN provides a simple yes-no guideline to nudity in over 5,100 movies. It is designed to help families who are tired of seeing naked butts and boobs in movies.
All men struggle with lust.
As a Christian, lust is something I must battle, not
simply struggle with. I have taken the stand
that I won't knowingly expose myself to nudity in
films. I also have a young daughter that I am trying to teach to be modest in an immodest world.
I am a huge movie fan, both watching them in theaters
and buying DVDs. I wanted a list I could download to
my PDA [Wow! This is old!] and refer to on the run. Most websites I refer
to address sex and nudity together, but they do not
provide a quick reference such as "nudity: yes
or no."
You may say, "What about language and violence?"
Well, they aren't the same kind of struggle for me as
lust is. Frankly, I don't curse, and I don't beat people
up. Too many men struggle with addiction to pornography.
Nudity in movies is just the jumping-off point.
To learn more about me, you need to visit my sites
and read, read, read.

We have been providing all kinds of workshops for children and young people across England and Wales. We have learned what works well and what doesn't work so well.
Urban music is popular with many young people and in particular difficult to reach teenagers. Music can be a great way to entertain, engage and teach children a skill that they 'want to learn'. DJ skills have been used to engage BESD children, as part of a music curriculum and merely a positive activity for children and young people to have fun with.
DJ skills workshops are great for children who want to learn to DJing. There are numerous skills to DJing like scratching, beat juggling, pitch mixing, turntablism, CD mixing, turntable tricks, performance techniques' and many other skills. Nugent Education will deliver these in your schools, youth clubs and even for private tuition.
Participants can bring their own CD's, or even vinyl's (for those who have them), and work with whatever type of music they are into. We have top DJ's on our available, including DJ Rasp, a former world champion scratch DJ. DJ skills classes and workshops are only suitable for small groups of no more four or five children or young people. For children wishing to learn how to DJ professionally or just learn as a skill, or experience, or just for fun (or positive engagement), it's a fantastic, fun workshop we would highly recommend.

M&S aren't a brand to shy away from shamelessly producing copy cat products. One look at their confectionery range reveals that several of their own brand bars are direct rip offs from many already established market offerings. Todays Almond, Apricot & Mango bar exhibited this no better than any other - taken out of its wrapper it would have been almost impossible to distinguish this product from the Eat Natural Almond, Apricot and Yogurt bar I reviewed last month. It was worth noting however that this bar did in fact differ, in that it offered the added element of dried mango into the mixture of the almond, apricot, coconut and puffed rice.
Despite weighing in at the same size (50.0g), I did notice a difference in the nutritional values to the Eat Natural bar. This M&S variation contained another 50 or so calories, as well as another couple of grams of fat ... dieters take note!! As I have mentioned above the bar in its appearance looked identical to the Eat Natural one - the ingredients looked well dispersed and the yogurt coating seemingly fused the bar together well, avoiding the annoyance of small parts breaking off all over the place. In regards to the smell of the product I detected a far greater nuttier presence with this bar. The aroma of the almonds was all too apparent as soon as I opened the wrapper - something that would also latter transpire to the taste.
Of course to be thorough I simply had to do a side by side taste test between this and the Eat Natural variant. To be honest there was very little differentiation between the two, though the odd bite of the M&S bar did deliver a somewhat unwelcome side to its taste. The outer yogurt coating was nicely implemented, with its dried milk like sweet flavours nicely noted with a tangy, soured aftertaste. I am actually quite a frequent purchaser of mango, and it is one of my favourite fruits. Despite it being hard to differentiate between the mango and apricot elements, the ever so slightly more acidic mango was a very welcome addition to the taste. That said it could possibly have been greater in its portioning, as it only constituted 8% of the bar. Surprisingly it was the nut element that delivered the unfortunate side to this bar. The almond and coconut pieces were largely of the same standard as the Eat Natural variant, delivering some wonderful earthy,milky, buttery flavours. However, half way through consuming the bar I came across a poor quality almond, which really upset the balance of the taste. This truly was a bad tasting nut - and gave a rather harsh metallic taste in the mouth that proved unfortunately hard to rid off. To be honest it did somewhat spoil my overall enjoyment of the product, however I think it would be duly unfair to mark M&S down to badly for this as it may have just been an unlucky occurrence.
Overall I did have a bit of an unsatisfactory experience with this bar, though I am going to give M&S the benefit of the doubt and put this down to my own bad luck at picking up a bar with a bad nut in it. My enjoyment of this bar up until that point was on a par, if not greater than its Eat Natural rival, something largely due to the addition of mango to the overall taste. Frankly if offered either/or between one of these and the Eat Natural Apricot, Almond & Yogurt I would go for the latter, a decision based purely on my own personal experience - in truth though I think there is very little to distinguish them.

Our experience is your advantage.
As local authorities and industrial companies know from their own experience, water management is a demanding task. Operational management ties down resources in both the administrative and human resources sectors. At the same time, optimum and efficient water management, which frequently represents an unknown technical area, is a highly responsible assignment.
Business management requirements are increasing and technologies are constantly developing further. Moreover, at the same time, the legislation relating to water management is becoming steadily more stringent. In order to meet all these economic, technical and legal demands, a growing number of local authorities and industrial companies are turning over their wide-ranging duties in the water area to external partners.
We guarantee quality, process optimisation and increased efficiency.
As a result of the design and construction of innumerable plants and long-term experience in their management, WABAG possesses extensive know-how and recognised competence in the areas of water and operational management and can therefore optimise the running of plants and thus contribute to their success.
We assume complete responsibility for the technical and/or commercial management of drinking and wastewater treatment plants and support you as a partner throughout the entire life cycle.
During daily operations, our customers benefit from:
- The long-term, international experience of our experts.
- WABAG's extensive technological competence.
- The results of company R&D activities.
WABAG offers a range of individual models. The most important current concepts for efficient plant management include:
- Consulting
- O&M – Plant Operation/Outsourcing
- DBO – Design-Build-Operate
- BOOT – Build-Own-Operate-Transfer

Mount Olive-Barton game to benefit family
By Rudy Coggins
Published in Sports on April 15, 2012 1:52 AM
Sports Information
The mid-week contest between No. 4-ranked Mount Olive College and Barton might be called "Battle of the East" at Scarborough Field on Tuesday, but the Conference Carolinas archrivals will come together to help an individual and family with ties to both baseball programs.
The game will be dedicated to Jake May, a 17-year-old senior at Eastern Wayne High School and a member of the baseball team. Jake was diagnosed with leukemia in January and has been undergoing chemotherapy treatments. He is currently in remission.
Admission is $6. In addition, the newly-renamed Highway 55 Burgers, Shakes & Fries (formerly Andy's) will set up a stand to sell hamburgers, hot dogs and cheesesteaks at the game. All of the proceeds will be donated to Jake and his family.
Jake is the son of Roger May, who was a student at Mount Olive and a member of the baseball team in the early 1980s. Roger returned to MOC to serve as an assistant baseball coach under Carl Lancaster from 1987-95. He took over Barton's baseball program in 1995 and stayed until 1999.
"Jake is a strong young man who has had the misfortune of being afflicted with a terrible disease," MOC head baseball coach Carl Lancaster said. "He is a fighter and we are so happy for the progress that he has made. We are dedicating this game to Jake as recognition for him personally and also to help raise funds to assist the family with their expenses."
The Trojans beat the Bulldogs twice earlier this season.
"Barton College is pleased to partner with Mount Olive College on April 17 to help uplift Jake May and his family," Gary Hall, Barton athletics director, said. "Jake's father worked very hard for others during his time as our head baseball coach. We wish Jake and his family the best as they continue to work through his current physical challenges."
The game will count towards each team's overall record, but will not factor into the East Division standings in Conference Carolinas play.

Police are questioning a suspect in the vicious attack on a rookie cop who lost several teeth while she was trying to bust a group smoking pot in Harlem projects, sources said.
A 26-year-old who signed on with the NYPD just one and a half years ago was patrolling the Clinton Houses around 1:30 a.m., Sunday, when she and her partner saw three men and a woman getting high on the first floor, police said.
When they went to make an arrest, one of the men turned around and hit the female cop, whose head slammed to the floor while the whole group ran off, according to the NYPD.
The officer lost several teeth and broke several others as a result of the assault, police said. She also suffered cuts to her face and head pain. She was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital for emergency dental surgery, authorities said.
The officer and her partner were assigned to Operation Impact, which beefs up patrols in high-crime areas by flooding them with cops fresh out of the Police Academy.
The suspect's name has not been released because he has not yet been charged.

The path a band takes is rarely a straight line. Detours pop up that throw into upheaval whatever momentum can be gained, making a career as much a test of endurance as it is a measure of the quality of work produced. It would be nice to think circumstances that fall out of our control wouldn't have such an impact on where life takes us, but we are not given that luxury. Bands are subject to the whims of fate as much as anyone else, and while some are blessed with good timing, others find themselves stuck with the blackest kind of luck.
Threshold was on the right track when we last heard from them. "Dead Reckoning" was not just a well received album, it was a minor masterpiece in the modern progressive metal world, the kind of album that offered up everything that could be wanted in the genre. A perfect blend of heavy riffs, undeniable melodies, and even the modern inclusion of well-placed death growls accenting a couple of songs, the album was poised to move Threshold into the stature fans say they should have been enjoying all along. They were no longer trailing their peers in terms of the records they were making, they were as good as anyone.
Fate, as it is wont to do, intervened. Singer Andrew "Mac" McDermott, a key part in making "Dead Reckoning" the success it was, left the band following the release, passing away from kidney failure not long after his departure. Changing a singer is always a dicey proposition for a band, but especially under such unfortunate circumstances. Making a record with a new singer, making a record after putting out such a strong album, and making a new album in the shadow of a fallen member, combined are the kind of pressure and situation that would easily excuse a less than stellar outing.
"March Of Progress" is not its predecessor, and not merely because of the change behind the mic. Damian Wilson returns to the band he once fronted, fifteen years after his last appearance. Having appeared with Star One and this year's Headspace album, his profile is higher than during his first stint with the band. He is maybe the only singer who could step in on this album without drawing constant comparisons to Mac. Wilson's voice has a bit of the love it or hate it tone that marks many progressive singers, especially those with theatrical ties or deliveries. He is not a classic metal singer, which makes him sound awkward in some of the heavier passages, but allows for more emotional resonance in the softer moments.
The doubts about whether Threshold could continue on are cast aside immediately, as "Ashes" bursts forth in a wave of pulsing riffs and trademark melodies. Their approach to progressive metal is compositional, not technical, marrying simpler instrumentation with some of the best melodies in all of progressive metal in an intelligent manner. "Ashes" is a perfect bridge from the previous era to this new dawning of the band, a supremely catchy song that recalls the feeling of "Dead Reckoning", and is the best of all worlds.
"Return Of The Thought Police" moves the band forward, grinding out maybe the heaviest riff Threshold has ever penned, as Wilson wrings as much emotion as he can from his voice in the quiet verses that sit between the metal borders. The chorus is restrained, and sheds the traces of pop from the opener, ably fitting the tenor of the track. "Staring At The Sun" takes the opposite approach, with a compact running time and a massive chorus perfectly suited for being belted out live.
The middle of the album can't continue at the same clip, dialing back the songs just enough to make them feel sluggish. "Liberty Complacency Dependency" is a slow burn that fails to ignite, while "Colophon" and "The Hours" try their best to kick into gear, but can't turn over the engine when they want to. After the opening salvo, these come as a shock, giving away the momentum the start of the album built, wasting what could have been.
"Don't Look Down" is a more expansive number that threatens to travel down the same track, running through what feels like a pedestrian chorus before the guitars keep building and another section of the song continues on, anchoring the song with a better melody. The fake-out isn't a bad trick of songwriting, but comes along at the wrong time, making the run of less impressive songs seem more an intentional decision than a lack of worthwhile ideas. The band tosses in another impressive bridge section, further rendering the middle of the album second-tier material.
What's striking about "March Of Progress" is that for a progressive band, it's the more expansive songs that make the least impact. The opening trio, along with the relatively shorter "Coda" are the most immediate, and ultimately most satisfying songs. The longer works have their moments, but get lost along the way, trading tight songcraft for the number of ideas in each song.
It would be unfair to place the blame for the album's shortcomings on Wilson, even though he is the only change from "Dead Reckoning". The songwriting core is the same, but lacks the focus and knack for filling even the grandiose moments with abundant melodies. "March Of Progress" is a more progressive album, but it's not a better one. It has more ambition than "Dead Reckoning" did, and Wilson does an admirable job of stepping into an unfortunate position, but the end result doesn't come together the way it should. "Dead Reckoning" felt like the beginning of something great, and "March Of Progress" is not a step forward from that point. It's not a huge step backward, but it is one, and even though it is a good record when judged on its own merit, it's hard not to consider it a mild disappointment.

CLARENDON — It was not the ending that Carlisle fans expected in the finals of the 2A-6 junior girls district tournament Saturday.
Hazen upset the top-seeded Junior Lady Bison 46-44 to win the championship. Carlisle previously defeated Hazen 36-23 in January.
Hazen led 22-13 at halftime. Carlisle opened the second half with a 7-0 run to get back into the game at 22-20. The Junior Lady Bison took a 29-28 lead on a putback by Ashby Terry with 1:21 left in the third quarter.
Carlisle managed to hold on to the lead, pushing it to 40-36 with 3:12 left in the game following two free throws by Journey Jennings. From there, Hazen scored seven consecutive points to lead 43-40 with 1:29 left.
Carlisle got to within one at 43-42 after two free throws by Kylie Warren with 29.9 seconds left.
Each team had opportunities to score; Carlisle missed a layup with 14.7 seconds left that would have given the Junior Lady Bison a 44-43 lead.
Hazen's Tamara Pinkney hit 1 of 2 free throws with 8.2 seconds left to make the score 44-42.
Carlisle could not get a shot off before the final buzzer sounded.
Carlisle played most of the game without guard Nikita Harper, who injured a knee with 4:30 left in the first quarter.
"Losing her early hurt," Carlisle coach Jonathan Buffalo said of Harper. "It just gave someone else the opportunity to step up. I thought we didn't play real well in the first half. We gave them too many easy baskets.
"I thought we came out in the second half with more intensity and fought hard to get back into the game. We got over that hump a little bit but I think we ran out of gas because we had to play with so much emotion in the third quarter. "
In the loss, Carlisle missed 18 free throws.
"We had a good season," Buffalo said. "We were able to get some wins for the program that we haven't had in a while. We won a conference championship, beat Lonoke. That is something we haven't done in a while.
"I told them in the locker room that this should make us want to get better, work harder. I was proud of them for the season they had."
Warren led Carlisle with 22 points. Elex McClain had 11. Arius McClain scored three Scoring two each were Terry, Nicquira Burnett and Jennings.
Pinkney led Hazen with 25 points.
Carlisle ends its season at 14-5.
The Junior Lady Bison advanced to the title game with a 43-20 win over Brinkley last week.
Warren led Carlisle with 15 points. Elex McClain and Harper had eight points each. Arius McClain scored five. Scoring two each were Terry, Peyton Van Houten and Ashley Harbison. Burnett added a free throw.

You Probably Need a Will, So Here's How to Have That Potentially Awkward Conversation with Your Family
Remember, if you die without a will, the state will determine who inherits
I talk to my mother on my way to the gym. "I'm late for my period," I tell her. "I don't want to get my hopes up but I'm just saying, I'm late. Do you think it's OK for me to work out?"If I was looking for a way out of the gym -- and I am -- asking my mother is a guaranteed free pass to turn around and head home, perhaps picking up a pint of Chunky Monkey at the store along the way.
My Ma is a worrier. If anything can go wrong, my Mother knows about it. She's already been worring about it. The fact that she is a nurse does not help the situation. Not only does she know, as a mother and a nervous person, all that can go wrong with a body, she knows it as a nurse. She's got the facts to back her up. When Madeline was in labor with Olivia, my mother was losing her mind with distress. "It's not the 1800s," I said. "She's a first world woman with great health insurance having a baby at Cedar Sinai. She's fine.""Oh, you don't know," Our Mom stressed on the other end of the phone. "You don't know all the things that can go wrong in childbirth. I wish I didn't know." I could hear her stress-smoking. It's not the only time she smokes. She happy-smokes, relaxes-smokes, morning-smokes and night-time smokes. She coffee-smokes and boredom-smokes. She smoke-break-smokes and watches-TV-smokes. This smoking business is a huge blind spot in her I-Worry-About-Every-Dangerous-Thing-That-Can-Go-Wrong-In-A-Body lifestyle.
My mother is a complex woman. Though she truly does worry about everything, she has another, polarized setting, which is 'They don't really know what's gonna kill ya.' This setting is deeply skeptical about things like organic foods and the true harmfulness of various carcinogens. Anyway, I was glad I didn't know all the risks my sister was facing during her endless childbirth which ended in a C-Section she should have gotten right at the start. I just lit my magical orange childbirth candle and arranged all the magical childbirth rocks and stones I'd bought at the Lesbian Witch Store, and then returned to the ridiculous affair I was having with a Swedish transsexual I stupidly had invited to stay with me for a week without realizing I didn't actually like him. At all. Whoops!Back to the future: My mother says that if I think I might be pregnant I should absolutely not be working out. She also has told me not to eat rice because it could have come from China where the rice has been poisoned with arsenic, and instructed me to take Imodium while sick with epic food poisoning. She has regarded the supplements I take with deep suspicion. But she really is a nurse. She has good advice and information, too. She knows that Dones back pain medicine is "a crock," and she slips me awesome foot fungus cream whenever one of her patients at the nursing home dies. I should listen to her. I double-check on my smart phone, and learn that pregnant women can have light work-outs. What the fuck is a light workout? Not even what is the point of it, though yeah that too, what is the point of a light workout, but what would one even be? Workouts are by definition grueling tangos with barbaric weight machines. They are doing crunches til your stomach hurts. They are hogging the elliptical machine until you can't see what's happening on Bravo! because the sweat is obscuring your vision and the line of gay men waiting for their turn has grown so long and possibly dangerous that you must call it quits. THAT is a workout. Go hard or go home.
I decided to go home. I couldn't risk it. I stopped at the drug store and bought a pint of Chunky Monkey and a box of pregnancy tests. My period is now two days late. If I count the 5 days of spotting I have been experiencing before my actual period, it is seven days late. A whole week of no menstrual activity. My pregnancy tests keep coming up negative. Me and Dashiell go dancing at the afternoon soul dance party, which has started up again after taking a break for the rainy season. I wear my favorite new neon green dress I got, amazingly, at H & M.
We mostly lean against the wall and talk to people because the outdoor dance floor is so wild and crazy it's hard to find a space to do the twist. Once twisting, it's hard not to get a cocktail spilled on you, or find yourself trapped in a cloud of cigarette smoke. Still, it's a great party. The joie de vivre is high. At the bar, getting beer for Dashiell and a Coke for myself (deciding against a miscarriage-inducing Red Bull), I refer to myself as "the mother of your child." I did it in sort of a campy way, like a joke, but it really isn't a joke! It's serious! "Did you just call yourself the mother of my child?" Dashiell asks, her eyes getting soft and dreamy. I nod my head, also suddenly dreamy. We make out at the bar, totally lost in the deep hotness of parenthood. Who knew?! Maybe millions of straight people. Maybe breeders who don't have to plan out their pregnancies in this annoying and slightly (or totally) clinical way know how totally hot it is to have a baby with someone. I mean, it happens while your're FUCKING.
But for lezzes and other queers, it's logistics. And logistics are not hot. I get all swirly and hot in this sudden sweet moment of tender dirty baby mama-ness. We go home and have the sort of sex that can make a bitch bleed if she's on the verge. But I don't. No period. Afterward we hang out all spacey and grinning in the kitchen and talk about baby names. We order Chinese food and rent a movie from the television and Dashiell falls asleep before the glare of it, like she always does, with me all cuddled up on top of her.The next day, sometime in the afternoon, I get my period. I wish it were just a couple of spots or drips, but it is my period, full-fledged, with cramps and everything. I'm furious. I COULD HAVE GONE TO THE GYM! My body feels totally grotesque -- part menstruation devastation, part baby weight-gain weight, part the body dysmorphia that is my feminine birthright. I am so sick of this shit! This baby making/baby failing roller coaster! How do women deal with this?
And I think I have a pretty good handle on it -- I'm not experiencing routine devastation, I got a good attitude, I'm not stressed out all the time, I'm not dreaming of babies and feeling empty inside, I'm not mad at pregnant women, but still. My late period had nurtured some HOPES, and look! Here I sit on the shore of DASHED HOPES! I knew this would happen!I decide to do some internet research. All I ever called was that one fertility clinic, after all. On Yelp! I see that they don't even have the best reviews. Know what does? The big teaching hospital here in San Francisco. Where I had once gone to get discount dental work performed upon me by students. I guess you can get fertility work done on you, too! The discounts aren't quite as deep as what you get for letting a newbie rip a tooth out of your head -- in fact, I wouldn't call it "discount" at all, but again and again fertility consumers state that this is the cheapest place with the best reputation. I'm sold.
I also make an appointment at the same GYN office Dashiell goes to, and find a sensible lesbian GP. About a month ago, when I started staying at her place so much I commandeered a drawer, a couple shelves of the medicine cabinet and got some bills redirected to her address so I wouldn't miss them, Dashiell put me on her health insurance. I won't say that I've NEVER had health insurance as an adult, because it's not true. One year I taught at a prestigious college and had Kasier. Then I got the chance to do some reporting at Paris Fashion Week and I got the boot. Bye-bye health insurance!
Getting the boot in a cool pair of boots
In the 90s, I had a job for a year getting lead paint out of low-income housing, and that gave me health care. So that's it. In the 23 years of my adulthood, I've spent 21 of them uninsured. Suddenly having health care is amazing, but also intimidating enough that it takes me a month to get it together, but this PERIOD business has gotten me back on top of things.I call my new health insurance to see if they offer any kind of fertility benefits. "You mean Infertility benefits?" The lady on the line corrects me. I guess so. But, I don't KNOW that I'm infertile! I'm trying to find out! Oh, well. My new health insurance does not cover it. A consolation -- not many insurance agencies do. So, I am glad that I have health insurance at all, and can stop struggling within the free clinic system (which isn't necessarily free). A stranger on the Internet suggests I make these corn husk dolls that help women get pregnant. I'm totally going to do it! I go to the vegetarian co-op, but they're out of corn husks. I wonder if I should get some energy work.
On a bus, I run into a girl who goes to psychic school who suggests I have a session with her to find out why I am "blocking my pregnancy." That feels so shitty and victim-blamey it makes me hate her for a second, and I can't get energy work from someone I hate, so that's out. But I'm a little haunted by it. What if I AM blocking my own pregnancy? It's too much to think about! Could life be that cruel?
I think about it. I really, really think about it. I talk to my Stevie Nicks HP and decide no, I don't believe in a life so cruel that some sort of weird hidden psychic glitch could undermine all your true and vibrant efforts to knock yourself up. Jeez! I don't need any more magic in my life, I think, I've got quite enough. What I need is some good, old-fashioned, dark-sided Western Medicine. I pull my foil-wrapped package of Clomid and pop one.
You can't stop me!

"The risk of massive household debt will unlikely spill over to the entire economy," Finance Minister Kim Dong-yeon said in a policy meeting with Bank of Korea Gov. Lee Ju-yeol and high-ranking officials from other key financial authorities.
"But, if household credit continues its sharp growth pace, it will become a burden on the economy," he said.
|South Korea`s Finance Minister Kim Dong-yeon (4th from L) and other officials pose at a policy meeting in Seoul on Sept. 14, 2017. (Yonhap)
South Korea's overall household debt has been on a steep rise to reach a record 1,388.3 trillion won as of end-June, up 10.4 percent from a year earlier.
The household debt increased at a double-digit pace, rising 11.1 percent on-year in the first quarter of the year and 11.6 percent in the fourth quarter of last year.
Although there is little chance that household debt may spark a financial crisis, many economists point out that rising debt chokes off private consumption and makes it difficult for the central bank to raise its policy rate amid global monetary tightening.
In particular, to get rising home loans under control, the government has churned out a series of regulatory measures, including strict lending regulations, but most of them seem to end in vain amid a low late trend and a boom in the local real estate market.
Kim said he will come up with fresh comprehensive measures to rein in household debt in the near future.
"There are various causes for rising household debt. We need to look into it carefully," he said. "Based on today's discussions and ideas, the government will come up with all-embracing plans on the issue." (Yonhap)
