Canoples Investigations Exposes Space Dodger
Welcome to #TuesdayBookBlog for 2017…
Action, adventure, and it all happens on a space station. Welcome to the latest chapter of the Canoples Investigations tale. This time, BD has definitely let himself get into major trouble!
There's a carnival on the station, with all kinds of "legally" cloned animals, more than a few zero-G acrobats, and miniature clowns. BD's ever present suspicious mind latches onto one thing when the advance team for Galactic Carnival arrives to begin preparations for a weeklong visit. The ringmaster looks familiar, but the man swears that he has never been to Canoples Station before. Even worse, children five and under are disappearing. A bit of investigating on BD's part clues him in to the fact this has happened on every station Space Dodger Space Circus has visited so far. He's determined to uncover the true identity of the ringmaster and solve the mystery of the missing children, but at what cost. Is BD willing to lose his lifelong friends to solve this case? Will they prove Jenna Rock, Wade's girlfriend, isn't involved?
It feels so good to have Mildred close. I can't think of her as Jenna, even when she has on her trademark wig and is wearing stage makeup like she is now. Granted, she's the premier space grunge/rap artist in the whole galaxy. Everywhere she goes, people want to touch and possess her, but here on Canoples Station, I do my best to give her the room she needs to wind down.
That is, until I got a message late last night from her. I still can't believe what she's done. That my girl, who has absolutely no investigative training, has stumbled onto and taken control of a situation that is potentially explosive and might endanger her life without consulting Security on any of the stations where she's performed until now just boggles my mind.
"You know." She giggles. "I dream about moments like this."
Her comment startles me. Here we are, stuck near the space dock with so many people around that it's hard to keep an eye on everyone, and she says that. Sometimes, I think Mildred is a lot like BD.

Grace-Based Parenting by Tim Kimmel
If you don't read the rest of the book you can read these on discipline and encouragement - pages 221-225
32. We need to raise strong kids in a grace-based environment, not shelter them from everything to keep them safe.
33. We don't need Pharisees, but parents who guide their children onto straight paths.
It's like fishing – put on the hook something they like to eat, not what you like. What you like in church and what they like may be different. Teens, especially, may want to worship in a different way. It is fine as long as it is Biblical and respectful to God.
40. Grace-based does not mean children "get out of responsibility free". Christ paid the ultimate sacrifice. He took on way more responsibility than we ever will. Leave your cares on Jesus. Embrace truth, not legalism.
"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present ages, while we wait for the blessed hope – the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good". Titus 2:11-14
self-controlled, upright and godly lives
a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good
41. Look to Jesus as your lighthouse
52. "Love is the commitment of my will
to your needs and best interests
regardless of the cost".
Parents have to do what is best for their children. Sometimes it costs us our own opinions, stereotypes, prejudices, and convenience.
66. Parents make mistakes. Ask God to forgive you. Ask your children to forgive you.
"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms". I Peter 4:8-10.
112. Groom your children according to their natural bents. Encourage your child's natural and unique gifts and skills. Help them develop them into assets they can use as adults.
Develop your own skills and talents. How did you develop these? Guide your children to develop theirs. Even if you hate art museums (or sports, or cars, etc.), if your child is into art, go anyway to show that their interests are of intrinsic value.
120. The disciples didn't practice "safe Christianity". Let your child explore their own faith. They may get hurt at times. Be there to guide them.
124. Teach your children how to fail and get on with life. Both victories and defeats can eventually be turned into accomplishments. Turn their abilities into assets.
129. Listen to your children. Acknowledge their fears. Pray with them.
134. "Grace-based families are homes where children are given"
a. The freedom to be different
b. The freedom to be vunerable
c. The freedom to be candid
d. The freedom to make mistakes
157. Set reasonable boundaries, Bible based, for your children and be prepared to explain them.
172. Base parenting decisions on truth and fact. Be sensitive to your children's vulnerabilities.
*185. Be truthful and honest BUT use candor. Candor is a way of communicating freely without prejudice or malice. Frame the truth in a way that does not hurt people. Be honorable in your truth, using a careful forthrightness that guards the other person's dignity.
193. Ephesians 4:14-15:
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.
195. Parents are in charge. They have the ultimate say. Listen to the children's opinions, however. Let them voice their thoughts and fears. Don't jump to conclusions. In Matthew 26:39 Jesus is dying on the cross and asking His Father if there are any other possibilities. Even Jesus wondered at times about His Father's decisions, but ultimately He knew it was the best and only path.
We want an authentic relationship at the heart level with our children.
202. Moses practices intercessory prayer in Exodus 32:11-13. Pray for your children. Ask God to forgive them and lead you to lead them in God's will.
203. Colossians 4:6
Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
204. Ephesians 4:25-32 selections
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen…be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
209. Let children have their "beefs". Maybe you should bend or break the parenting rules sometimes if it is a reasonable gripe.
213. Grace-based parents realize that their children need security in their hearst, significance in their lives,and strength for the future.
214. Romans 5-8 . We are forgiven by God and should be forgiving in our parenting decisions, but grace is not easy. It is at the price of following God. Pleasing God puts us on a narrow path, but it is a joyous path to follow, knowing we are in the will of God. Take your power for living from God's love. Then you can give unbounded love to your children. Staying in God's will will keep both you and them from sin in the first place.
*216. Grace-based children are accepted as sinners who desire to become more like Christ rather than be seen s nice Christian kids trying to maintain a good moral code.
221. When children misbehave: 1. evaluate, 2. discuss, 3. make consequences
222. I love you too much to let you continue in this pattern and grow up with this bad behavior, so I am stopping you from doing it.

Dutch clothing line Stripes is attempting to improve the lives of inmates with its artisanal prison-made clothing. Stripes produces high-quality garments by working together with inmates who are committed to changing their lives. Through the program, Stripes creates "authentic products that have a real story, reminding you how valuable freedom actually is."
Stripes helps empower inmates who want to work on its products by offering them creative art classes and work-related certificates for classes such a computer programming, business or graphic design. The goal is to help inmates learn values and skills that will help them to re adapt to society after they leave prison.
The sophisticated prison-made clothing is currently being manufactured in the Netherlands, but with a successful Kickstarter campaign, the company hopes to bring the project to additional prisons in Belgium, France and the US.

I just had to make one more card using the Jumbo Sticky Rounds, this time with the Comfort Cafe Fabric. I choose this fabric because the design was small and consistent and I liked the colour combination.
Since the fabric has Soft Suede and Summer Starfruit as its colours, of course, I picked the same colours for my card. And embellishing the card was quick as I choose those same colours again – Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon and a Summer Starfruit Dahlia. The Dahlia looked kind of lost on its own so I layered it onto a dark brown Naturals Designer Button with a mini glue dot and used a second mini glue dot to stick it to the fabric flower.
I also used leftover fabric underneath the ribbon to make it stand out more and tie the card together.
Don't forget to enter to win blog candy this weekend – click here.
To make the rosette, fold an approximately 1" wide piece of the Summer Starfruit patterned fabric from the Comfort Cafe package (126894) in half along the length. The length of the fabric required will vary depending on how tightly you wrap it and how much you pinch it. I usually start with the full length of 27" for my first card. Starting at the outside of the Jumbo Sticky Round (127852), pinch and fold down the fabric as you work you way to the middle.

Shelling hits Donetsk as convoy nears Kiev
Artillery shells hit close to the centre of Ukraine's separatist-held city of Donetsk for the first time on Thursday, killing at least one person, as a large Russian aid convoy rumbled towards the border.world Updated: Aug 15, 2014 00:42 IST
Artillery shells hit close to the centre of Ukraine's separatist-held city of Donetsk for the first time on Thursday, killing at least one person, as a large Russian aid convoy rumbled towards the border.
With Ukrainian government forces tightening the noose on pro-Russian separatists, shelling rocked Donetsk, sending frightened residents rushing for cover, witnesses said.
It was not immediately clear if the artillery was fired by government or rebel forces. Two shells landed 660 feet from the Park Inn Radisson, one of the city's main hotels, shattering windows. The blasts opened up a yawning hole on the third floor of an apartment block and left a broad crater on the pavement. Nearby, a body covered by a sheet lay stretched out on the blood-stained ground.
A huge Russian convoy carrying 2,000 tonnes of water, baby food and other humanitarian aid drove through southern Russia towards the frontier, while Kiev repeated it could not enter until Ukrainian authorities had cleared its cargo. The caravan of 280 trucks left the Moscow region on Tuesday, looking to take aid to Luhansk region, in eastern Ukraine, where the main city is held by the separatists.
The pro-Western Kiev government says the humanitarian crisis is partly of Moscow's making and has denounced the dispatch of aid as an act of cynicism. It is also fearful that the operation could become a covert military intervention by Moscow to prop up the rebels who appear on the verge of defeat. Moscow, which denies charges — also voiced by the West — of arming the rebels with tanks, missiles and other heavy military equipment, has dismissed as "absurd" suggestions it could use the convoy as a cover for invasion.
In Geneva, a spokeswoman for the International Committee of the Red Cross, which would be responsible for distributing the aid in Ukraine, said: "The question of border crossing procedures and customs clearance (for the convoy) still have to be clarified between the two sides."
A senior Ukrainian presidential aide said that the Russian cargo could be taken into the country only under the auspices of the Red Cross.

I have a Dell XPS Studio. Not sure what brand HD (I think WD) cause I haven't taken it out yet. I only have one 1TB HD in my computer, yet, factory default, it was set in BIOS as RAID. A couple of days ago, I kept getting a message from Intel Rapid Storage Technology "Disk on port 0: At Risk". I had the option to set it to normal. Which I did. Whenever I tried to restart the PC, it gives me a black screen with this Error code: AHCI Port0 Device Error. Press f2 to resume Which I did, and it would go back to normal windows login screen and computer would operate.
I tried a sfc scan and it didn't show any errors. I tried chkdsk. First time it didn't start when I restarted my computer. Second time it did. I let it run overnight last night and this morning I woke up to the "AHCI Port0 Device Error. Press f2 to resume" screen so I don't even know if it found and fixed any errors. As I continued to use the PC normally this morning, a window popped up saying hard drive was going to fail so I should back up. I have never seen it before. I turned the PC off immediately cause I want to get a new HD and clone this one, if I can.
1. There's a good chance the HD is failing, but why am I getting the AHCI error when I'm not using AHCI? In BIOS I only have two options for the HD: RAID or ATA. Is this error related to the actual HD failing or the computer is trying to look for another RAID drive and is not finding it?
2. I'm buying a new HD today. I already use CrashPlan cloud backup so most of my files are already backed up with them. I do shoot and edit photos. Do you recommend I get: A. a new larger (e.g. 2TB) HD for future expansion B. a 1TB (I was thinking about WD Caviar Black - unless you recommend something else) and clone the current one, plus get another HD (e.g. Green - or is Seagate fine?) to store all photos and use it as a scratch disk for Photoshop, considering I also back them up with CrashPlan or C. Two 2TB drives and set them up as RAID?

FRIEDRICH THOLUCK " AUGUST GOTTREU (1799-1877), German Protestant divine, was born at Breslau, on the 3oth of March 1799. He received his education at the gymnasium and university of his native town, and early distinguished himself by great versatility of mind and power of acquiring languages. A love of Oriental languages and literature led him to exchange the university of Breslau for that of Berlin, that he might study to greater advantage, and there he was received into the house of the Orientalist Heinrich Friedrich von Diez (1730-1817). He was introduced to pietistic circles in Berlin, and came specially under the influence of Baron Hans Ernst von Kottwitz (1757-1843), who became his " spiritual father," and of the historian Neander. Before deciding on the career of theological professor, he had in view that of a missionary in the East. Meanwhile he was feeling the influence to a certain degree of the romantic school, and of Schleiermacher and Hegel too, though he never sounded the depths of their systems. At length, in his twenty-first year, he finally decided to adopt the academical calling. In 1821 he was Privatdozent and in 1823 became professor extraordinarius of theology in Berlin, though he was at the same time active in the work of home and foreign missions. He lectured on the Old and New Testaments, theology, apologetics and the history of the church in the 18th century. In 1821 appeared his first work, Sufismus, sive theosophia Persarum pantheistica; following the same line of study he published Blutensammlung aus der morgenlandischen Mystik (1825) and Speculative Trinitatslehre des spateren Orients (1826). His well-known essay on the nature and moral influence of heathenism (1822) was published by Neander, with high commendation, in his Denkwurdigkeiten; and his Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans (1824) secured him a foremost place amongst the most suggestive, if not the most accurate, Biblical interpreters of that time. Another work, which was soon translated into all the principal European languages, Die wahre Weihe des Zweiflers (1823; 9th ed., with the title Die Lehre von der Sande and dem Versohner, 1870), the out-come of his own religious history, procured for him the position which he ever after held of the modern Pietistic apologist of Evangelical Christianity. In 1825, with the aid of the Prussian government, he visited the libraries of England and Holland, and on his return was appointed (in 1826) professor ordinarius of theology at Halle, the centre of German rationalism, where he afterwards became preacher and member of the supreme consistorial council. Here he made it his aim to combine in a higher unity the learning and to some extent the rationalism of J. S. Semler with the devout and active pietism of A. H. Francke; and, in spite of the opposition of the theological faculty of the university, he succeeded in changing the character of its theology. This he effected partly by his lectures, particularly his exegetical courses, but, above all, by his personal influence upon the students, and, after 1833, by his preaching. His theologicalposition was that of a mild and large-hearted orthodoxy, which laid more stress upon Christian experience than upon rigid dogmatic belief. On the two great questions of miracles and inspiration he made great concessions to modern criticism and philosophy. The battle of his life was on behalf of personal religious experience, in opposition to the externality of rational-ism, orthodoxy or sacramentarianism. Karl Schwarz happily remarks that, as the English apologists of the 18th century were themselves infected with the poison of the deists whom they endeavoured to refute, so Tholuck absorbed some of the heresies of the rationalists whom he tried to overthrow. He was also one of the prominent members of the Evangelical Alliance, and few men were more widely known or more beloved throughout the Protestant churches of Europe and America than he. He died at Halle on the loth of June 1877. As a preacher, Tholuck ranked among the foremost of his time. As a teacher, he showed remarkable sympathy and won great success. As a thinker he can hardly be said to have been endowed with great creative power. After his commentaries (on Romans, the Gospel of John, the Sermon on the Mount and the Epistle to the Hebrews) and several volumes of sermons, his best-known books are Stunden christlicher Andacht (1839; 8th ed., 1870), intended to take the place of J. H. D. Zschokke's standard rationalistic work with the same title, and his reply to David Strauss's Life of Jesus (Glaubwurdigkeit der evangelischen Geschichte, 1837). He published at various times valuable contributions towards a history of rationalism—Vorgeschichte des Rationalismus (1853-1862), Geschichte des Rationalismus (1865), i. and a number of essays connected with the history of theology and especially of apologetics. His views on inspiration were indicated in his work Die Propheten and ihre Weissagungen (1860), in his essay on the " Alte Inspirationslehre," in Deutsche Zeitschrift fur christliche Wissenschaft (1850), and in his Gesprache caber die vornehmsten Glaubensfragen der Zeit (1846; 2nd ed., 1867). He also contributed many articles to Herzog's Realencyklopadie, and for several years edited a journal (1830-1849), Literarischer Anzeiger. See Das Leben Tholucks, by L. Witte (2 vols., 1884-1886) ; A. Tholuck, ein Lebensabriss, by M. Kahler (1877), and the same author's art. ' Tholuck," in Herzog's Realencyklopadie; "Zur Erinnerung an Tholuck," by C. Siegfried, Protestantische Kirchzeitung (1885), No. 45, and 1886, No. 47 ; Karl Schwarz, Zur Geschichte der neuesten Theologie (4th ed., 1869) ; F. W. F. Nippold's Handbuch der neuesten Kirchengeschichte; cf. Philip Schaff, Germany; its Universities, Theology and Religion (1857), and the article in the Allgemeine deutsche Biographie.End of Article: FRIEDRICH THOLUCK

kcbibek310 Posts: 21Registered Users ✭✭
What is the exact meaning of sunswitch? I have a project in which the owner told us to use sunswitch to reduce the pressure in pump. We are using kirloskar pump of capacity 15 KW and a controller. Can this pump controller featured with sunswitch property or we have to install it separately. If so then can how we install it and suggestion of any brand of sunswitch is highly appreciated.
A sun switch is a device which measures the sun's intensity which is used to prevent a pump from operating outside it's power requirements, thereby not pumping. The switch is placed at the array and is adjustable to only allow the pump to operate when there is sufficient watts per square meter are available. Attached pdf is an example and provides wiring examples, hope this helps.1500W, 6× Schutten 250W Poly panels , Schneider MPPT 60 150 CC, Schneider SW 2524 inverter, 400Ah LFP 24V nominal battery bank0
kcbibek310 Posts: 21Registered Users ✭✭Do we connect it with pump controller? How we connect it with pump controller?0
Without information in the form of a manual with schematics, it's difficult to say, but some sort of logic input to the controller would be the best method due to limitations of the contact of the sun switch.1500W, 6× Schutten 250W Poly panels , Schneider MPPT 60 150 CC, Schneider SW 2524 inverter, 400Ah LFP 24V nominal battery bank0

Looking good already!Not in Afghanistan I hope?
"Nahh not anymore...I couldn't get enough after 20 years of service so I went back as a civilian contractor until I broke my leg."If I break my leg can I come home? At 2 months to go I am not sure it would be worth it. I am definately NOT coming back as a contractor though - I hate this place. I get to finish the brewery in my basement when I get home.

The technique generates large amounts of data quickly -- a great advantage, says Cohen, and a problem. "It gives a lot of information to work with, but likewise it's a tremendous amount of data to process -- as much as half a gigabyte per experiment." To deal with the data overload, Cohen and his colleagues last fall turned to the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center's Alpha Cluster, a linked network of 14 DEC Alpha workstations. They used the cluster to address a particular problem of their functional MRI experiments. A human subject stays in the machine for two to three hours as the MRI scanner records data. Though special pillows are used to reduce movement, it's impossible to keep the head perfectly still. Software called automatic image registration (AIR), developed by Roger Wood of UCLA, can correct for head movement, but the sheer number of images -- typically 1,200 per experiment -- creates an imposing demand on computing.
AIR is an ideal application for the Alpha Cluster, notes Cohen, because it is inherently parallel. A single experiment typically records 200 separate images for each of 6 separate scan sites, or slices. "For each slice," says Cohen, "you take as a reference point one of the 200 images and align all the others to it. There's no need for communication back and forth. Each sample can be aligned to the reference independently."
On a high-speed workstation, says Cohen, it takes as much as 24 hours computing time to register the images from one experiment. "Often, we run two experiments in an evening, which means the computing can't keep up with the data, and this cripples the research." On the Alpha Cluster, the same computing takes an hour, a radical speedup that overcomes the research bottleneck. Having successfully adapted AIR to a clustered workstation environment, Cohen and his colleagues hope to make the software available as a community resource for functional MRI research.
Looking Ahead
A series of computational steps are involved in turning MRI data into a useful picture of the brain at work. Prior to the image-registration processing done by AIR, the raw data from the MRI scanner, which is recorded as a varying intensity of radio waves, must be converted into a physical image of the brain. This step also requires significant number-crunching, notes Cohen, and the researchers are looking into moving this processing also to the Alpha Cluster so the MRI data can flow directly into AIR.
After AIR, further processing involves statistical analysis and volume rendering of the images. Looking ahead, Cohen and Walter Schneider, of the University of Pittsburgh's Learning Research and Development Center, envision tying their functional MRI experiments directly to the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. With sufficient computing power, images of the functioning brain could be available in real time as a clinical tool in diagnosing and treating disturbances in brain function and cognition.

Yazidis took to the streets of Bielefeld in northwest Germany on Saturday to highlight the plight of their community in Iraq and thank the US for its help.
Germany: Yazidis march as Iraq conflict echoes in Europe
Germany: Yazidis march as Iraq conflict echoes in Europe
Among the demonstrators, some fear that conflict with Islamists could erupt in Europe.
Tens of thousands of Yazidis have found refuge in Germany over the years.
Their thoughts are with loved ones being persecuted by the jihadists faraway and with their own safety, closer to home.
"It is not risk-free to make yourself known as a Yazidi in Germany and in Europe," said Ali Alatan of the Yazidi associations in Germany.
His comments follow a Yazidi demonstration in the German town of Herford near Bielefeld on Wednesday in which a fight broke out between a group of Yazidis and radical Islamists. Two Yazidis including a teenager were injured.
A number of men from Chechnya were reportedly among those arrested.
Yazidis are considered 'devil-worshippers' for their ancient beliefs by some radical Muslims.
German authorities are poised for any future unrest.

Q: database problem migrating from 9i to 10g on Solaris
The UnSeen
<preface - this is pre-coffee>
I've been fighting an issue which has me baffled. Basically, i
performed a database upgrade of Oracle on Solaris 8 migrating 3
instances from 9i to 10g. Everything seemed to progress well. Labels
are not installed. User/password data and schema are are there
(according to the console). Users can create, populate and select from
new tables created post upgrade - however, they cannot see tables
brought from 9i. SYSDBA cannot see tables brought from 9i.
The tables are there in the EM console, they have 55000 or so records.
I've messed with grants, roles and system privs - I'm at a loss. I
still have the 9i data though the databases in 9i are shutdown. Has
anyone encountered this problem? I should mention the error is
9i -> 10g (10.1.0.2)
yesterday, I added patch 10.1.0.3 seeing the
issue - fixed
Many thanks in advance,
Ian Dickens

To be honest, I did expect a bit more purple on the suit when I heard that Chase was going to become a proper rider.
However, looking at it here, this costume has grown on me tremendously.
Anonymous Says:
so... does this mean Mach is no more?
Anonymous Says:
Reminds me of a more mechanical Eternal. Not digging the Axe though and hope he has some alternative weapons.

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has issued full guidance to the NHS in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on endoscopic mastectomy and endoscopic wide local excision for breast cancer.
Treatment for early breast cancer usually involves surgery to remove all or part of the breast. In this keyhole procedure, part or all of the breast tissue is removed using special instruments inserted through small skin incisions. The skin envelope of the breast and nipple are left intact, ready for an implant that can be inserted during the same operation.
Coding and clinical classification codes for this guidance.
Your responsibility
This guidance represents the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available. When exercising their judgement, healthcare professionals are expected to take this guidance fully into account. However, the guidance does not override the individual responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or guardian or carer.
Commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to implement the guidance, in their local context, in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, advance equality of opportunity, and foster good relations. Nothing in this guidance should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties.
Commissioners and providers have a responsibility to promote an environmentally sustainable health and care system and should assess and reduce the environmental impact of implementing NICE recommendations wherever possible.

Well, I had to go to the ER last night as a matter of fact...no insurance either. I have recently signed up for TennCare (Tn medicaid) and I have to take some paperwork to them and then I'll be approved...but not as of last night.
So, after 5 hours,nine stitches, and a great deal of pain I was checking out and my bill was......ta da $459. But they discounted it since I don't work and so on...to $189. That's a big difference.
Anyway, when I get approved it will be back dated so I won't have to pay at all. If not, I have to pay $31/month for 6 months.
Oh yeah, I was trying to open a box that got delivered in the mail and the knife slipped....3 inch laceration (pretty deep)on the back of my thumb....9 pretty blue stitches...Hooray for me...
spinal stenosis,degenerative disc disease,bilateral neuropothy.
lamenectomy L3,L4..spinal fusion L4-S1
Without insurance I would have been responsible for the 55k so for those without insurance, medical bills are nearly impossible to deal with. Next year I will pay about 900$ for my policy and will have to pay 3k out of pocket before they pay for anything.
Hysterectomy at 25
4 laproscopic surgeries since 24
Cervical stenosis in C3 & C4
Meds - percocet 3x day : nexium : xanax :
Supplements : calcium : magenesium :potassium : milk thistle : fish oil : B complex : vit E
In the United States today, there is a pervasive tendency to treat children as adults, and adults as children. The options of children are thus steadily expanded, while those of adults are progressively constricted. The result is unruly children and childish adults. ~Thomas Szasz

I download movies from Utorrent but my question is if i load a bunch of moives onto a single DVD blank how do i watch all of them when it's running on a DVD player?
I'm guess using chapter skip or a movie skip command right
I think since they are all in separate files, like on your computer, it shouldn't be a problem to just click on them.
Quick screenshot from my folder. You have the same on your burned DVD so I think you can just click on a film file and that's it.
I owned some pirated compilation on a dvd, with 6 films or more and they were just in form of media player (or whatever player reads your dvd's) format. So just choose a movie and click it.
I am the worst explain-this person ever, so if I typed mysterious gibberish, I'm sorry. Blame summer heat also
Edit: oh snaps, you said DVD player, not computer. Well, then I guess you're right, you can use it in form of skipping chapters.

PBS' The Abolitionists: A Flawed Experience by WB ReevesFollow PBS' The Abolitionists: A Flawed Experience
"Narrator: The only voices advocating the abolition of slavery were black. Their frustration was growing, and some of them were becoming more militant, but no one in power was listening. As of yet, no white Americans could imagine turning millions of dollars worth of slaves into millions of black compatriots. But scattered around the country, a few lonely souls were convinced that slavery was a crime against God and man. And in Boston, one of them was coming to understand that God intended he do something about it. William Lloyd Garrison felt that he was destined to do great things, but he had no idea how to get there. In 1828 he was 22 years old, newly arrived in the city from his hometown of Newburyport. Garrison's father, a seaman and a drunk, had abandoned the family when Garrison was two years old. Plunged into poverty, Garrison's mother left her children for years on end as she looked for work. But in their time together, she managed to drum a fierce Christian conscience into her son."The first sentence is at best misleading since Anthony Benezet, a French immigrant to America, published his pamphlet: "Observations on the Inslaving [sic], Importing and Purchasing of Negroes" in 1759. Later in the same episode the following claim is made:
"Narrator: In 1833, two years after William Lloyd Garrison launched The Liberator, abolitionists from all over the North gathered for the first time. They could feel the strength of their growing numbers -- the time had come to unify their far-flung groups into one national anti-slavery society."Again this is misleading. In the context of the prior narration it suggest that Abolition, in terms of anything beyond purely local organization, post dated Garrison's publication of The Liberator. There is an overall impression given that Garrison's activity marked the emergence of organized Abolition in the US. This is simply false.
Moreover, the first meeting of the "American Convention for Promoting the Abolition of Slavery, and Improving the Condition of the African Race", gathering together Delegates from the Abolition Societies established in different parts of the United States, occurred 1794. This is over 30 years prior to the event cited in first episode's narration.
It is unfortunate that "The Abolitionists", for all its merits, propagates the myth that Abolitionism in the United States began with the activities of Garrison and his generation. It's even worse luck that it suggests that Garrison's was the first white voice calling for abolition.

2013 Porsche 911 Carrera: Hidden Cupholders
October 16, 2013
It's no secret that our long-term 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet has cupholders, but they are hidden from plain site.
Tucked away in a space above the glove box, two bottomless cupholders will pop out if you press on the narrow chrome strip. While they will hold a cup or bottle, they are no good for storing change, keys, phones, or other trinkets while driving.
This 911's interior is made for driving, not distractions.

After a brief respite, the Bond movie rumor mill is back in action and churning out new casting rumors. Australian actress Abbie Cornish is being linked with the Bond girl role in the next James Bond movie.
In a report picked up by MI6.co.uk, Cornish is reportedly at "the top of a shortlist of contenders" to be 007's next conquest, er, love interest, according to Aussie mag New Idea.
Citing an unnamed insider at Bond studio MGM, the source tells New Idea, "Abbie is perfect because she is not familiar to film audiences, but at the same time people have become intrigued by her. She may not have enjoyed being caught up in a scandal at the time but it certainly helped her profile."
The scandal in question suggests that Cornish had an affair with her Stop Loss co-star Ryan Phillippe, which led to his divorce from Reese Witherspoon.
The magazine adds that Cornish, 24, is expected to fly to Singapore to meet with Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. If true then does that mean Bond 22 is scouting locations in Singapore?
Cornish -- who bears a resemblance to British actress Sienna Miller, an oft-rumored Bond girl contender and Daniel Craig's reported favorite for the role -- has won raves for her role opposite Heath Ledger in Candy.
Her other credits include A Good Year, the upcoming The Golden Age, opposite Cate Blanchett and Clive Owen, and Somersault, opposite one-time Bond contender-turned-Avatar star Sam Worthington.

If you are starting a home improvement project, one of the first items on your list might be pulling up a tile floor. If you don't care about the mess you could simply smash and pulverise the tiles with a sledgehammer, but more likely you want to lift the tiles and minimise the damage and mess. As long as you have access to some basic tools, you shouldn't have too much trouble lifting the old tile floor. Just be sure to wear protective gear and clothing. Some of the tiles will break as you remove them and you need to protect your yourself from flying debris.
Put on your safety glasses, gloves and long sleeved shirt and trousers. The debris from the tile can potentially injure, so cover your body with the proper gear.
Place the edge of your putty knife on one of the grout lines, or joints between two tiles. Tap other end of the putty knife with your hammer. Do not hit the putty knife too hard or you risk breaking the tile and making a mess. You just want the edge of the tile to lift slightly.
Insert the blade of the putty knife as far underneath the tile edge as you can once it pops up from the floor. Angle the putty knife as far down toward the floor as you can, so it is almost parallel with the ground.
Tap the putty knife again with the hammer. Pull the putty knife up toward the ceiling once it is lodged beneath the tile. The tile should lift up as if it were on a hinge, or it should completely pop free from the floor.
Repeat the process for the rest of the tile floor. It will be easier to lift the remaining tiles once you have an area cleared. You will be able to angle your putty knife lower to the floor and can usually lift the tiles with one tap.
Use a pry bar for any stubborn tiles that will not budge from the putty knife. Place the edge of the pry bar beneath a corner of the tile and push down to raise it. As a last resort, you can smash extremely stubborn tiles with your hammer. Hit the tile with your hammer and use the putty knife to scrape up the debris.
