We need answers about dispersants used on BP spill, The Advertiser (Lafayette), March 31, 2011:
… During the immediate time period following the explosion, BP was given permission to use aerosol dispersants on the oil slick that formed on the waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Do you remember the terrible winds, the photos of the mighty cranes spraying huge clouds of misty dispersant onto the Gulf, and the spray that was formed?
Can you imagine the power of the engines that sprayed the dispersant onto the water and the oil slick?
I have heard that these conditions combined to form what can be compared to a hair spray bottle pumping that mist onto us for up to 100 miles inland. …

Pakistan wants durable peace in Afghanistan: Sartaj Aziz
Islamabad, Dec 8 (IANS) Pakistan desires durable peace in Afghanistan and instability in the region is not in the interest of the country, Pakistan prime minister's advisor on foreign affairs Sartaj Aziz said on Tuesday.
While addressing a meeting prior to the Heart of Asia conference here, Aziz said Pakistan will continue to support all endeavours aimed at strengthening peace and security in Afghanistan.
Aziz said the Heart of Asia conference is an effective platform for promoting regional economic cooperation and connectivity, with Afghanistan at its centre.
It provides an opportunity for a peaceful and stable Afghanistan, and a secure and prosperous region as a whole.
Aziz said that as the process matures, "our focus should be on strengthening engagements and collaboration to effectively combat challenges in the field of security and promoting regional economic collaboration".
Afghanistan deputy foreign minister Hikmat Khalil Karzai called for a united and collective approach to counter the menace of terrorism and violent extremism.
He said the conference was taking place at a critical juncture when the region was confronted by many challenges, including terrorism.
He also said that his country attaches importance to having strong relations with all the regional countries for promotion of economic relations and meeting the challenges.

I am a newbie in MS SQL Replication. This is long story for your
BlackBerry. I hope you can read and understand my story below.
Publisher: Windows XP & MS SQL 2008 Standard, Customer maintenances EXE Application.

I only have Customer maintenances EXE file and I have no application source code.
Both publisher and subscribe CUSTOMER table will be update by different people and different location.
Problem: for example

Hi All,
Please bear with with me as I'm coming into this pretty much blind. We are setting up to implement SharePoint 2010 in our organization. The setup we are going with is as follows:
Database server running Server 2008, SQL 2008
App server running Server 2008
Front end web server running Server 2008
Now for a few questions:
1. The central administration site is running on the database server. Is this OK or should it be on the app server or does it matter?
2. Since my workstation is only a 32 bit machine, I currently have Visual Studio 2010 on the app server. OK to leave it there or should I upgrade to a 64 bit system on my workstation to remove VS from the server farm?
3. Any recommendations for good online tutorials for site development?

when publishing in the webmatrix dialogue it asks for "destination connection string" for my "database.mdf"
I was not sure what it was so I pasted this from my web.config file :
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True
it all published ok, but wont run, so I guess it has somthing to do with this connection string or some kind of configuration issue.
My question is this, What should go in the field for "Destination connection string"

I created a getter and Setter in Visual Basic. I have some questions though. Please look at the code below.Here are my questions.
A.) At line 1 below, should "pieces" be declared as Private?B.) In the IDE at lines 4 and 7 the IDE keeps changing those variables to uppercase so that the property name "Pieces" is the same as the variable name "pieces".Should I instead define the integer pieces with an underscore: _pieces ?That is the only way I can get around the IDE forcing the variable to become uppercase.
1 Dim pieces As Integer
2 Public Property Pieces() As String3 Get
4 Return pieces5 End Get
6 Set (ByVal values As String)7 pieces=value8 End Set9 End Property

Please forgive this ignorant question - I've used ASP.NET AJAX a good deal but I'm new to jQuery. Specifically, is it possible to call or create jQuery events on the fly via an UpdatePanel? For example, calling a jQuery modal or animating a Label (or <div> contained Literal), etc.
If anyone has any advice or could point me to some easy tutorials on mixing ASP.NET AJAX and jQuery, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I have a webmethod which I want to return a data record (for example: name, surename, address, age, zip etc)
I wonder how to accomplish this. I think the solution is about creating an object which contains all the records serialized. And then the webmethod returns this serialized object. I'm not 100% sure how to accomplish this, if some of you good provide me with some tips, tutorial or link to an article explaining it, that would be great
Hello,I'm fairly new to ASP.NET and i'm using the Membership Provider. I have the need to do similar to some banking sites. Baically I need to track "authorized" computers/ip's for a user. If the user accesses the site form a recognized Computer/IP then the user is allowed into the app after successful login. If the computer/IP is not recognized I need to redirect them to a screen to answer the security question setup in fhte Membership Provider.Has anyone done anything like this or can anyone point me to any examples? I did a search, but can't seem to find anything.
My idea is to maintain a list of authorized computers/IP addresses and check them on initial login. If the IP address isn't found I can redirect them to the questions. My concern is that they are then actually authenticated and could enter any of the site URL's as an authenticated user.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
1. Do you have to setup cascading on the SQL server also, or if you setup Cascading in EF 4 that will do it for you, and you can keep Cascading in SQL not setup?
2. Is there any problems I should be aware of like the problems(yet manual fixble) with using Cascading in EF 4 , MVC 2, SQL 2005.

Also Damaged By Hurricane Matthew: Florida's Beaches
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is assessing Hurricane Matthew's damage to Florida's beaches.
Beaches in central and north Florida sustained the worst damage. In Flagler County a stretch of A1A collapsed. In St. Johns County a new inlet was carved out of the shoreline.
Jackie Keiser of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says the damage is significant considering the economic boost beaches give to tourism and property values.
"We're looking at on the order just in Florida $100 million to potentially $300 million to put that sand back."
Many beaches also are engineered to protect against storm surges. Keiser estimates Florida's beaches prevented up to $2 billion in property damage during Hurricane Matthew.
She says the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is considering the possibility of a sand shortage.

text: Great unit when it wants to work but every couple of hours it decides to stop talking to my router and just drops internet. Lights are on but no-one at home. Cable modem is fine when plugged directly to computer so no problem there. Wires are all fine from modem to router. So yeah it decides to stop internet being passed through. Every night i have torrents going and every morning the internet won't work as the router has stopped the internet being passed thru. The only way to get the modem up and running again is to unplug modem power and plug it back in. Process taking circa 4 to 5 minutes. Very annoying. Firmware is 1.52 which i think is newest. looks like many have this problem on here, shame on linksys for providing such a poor product! EDIT : Few more details. Laptop and computer on wireless and main desktop on wired. When it does drop when i check the properties of the wireless and ethernet cards they still show as though they were connected i.e. nothing wrong.

CRICKET: Cameron re-elected WICB president
Jamaican businessman Whycliffe 'Dave' Cameron has been re-elected president of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB).
Cameron overcame the challenge of legendary Barbadian fast bowler, and president of the Barbados Cricket Association, Joel Garner, on a vote eight to four during the board's annual general meeting at Jamaica Pegasus Hotel today.
Cameron's vice-presidential partner, and re-election running mate, Emmanuel Nanthan, was also returned to his post via a vote of eight to four.
The Dominican diplomat, who is also president of the Windward Islands Cricket Board of Control, turned back the challenge of Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board director, businessman Baldath Mahabir.
Cameron and Nathan, who were elected on vote margins of 7-5 and 8-4 against Julian Hunte and Joel Garner, respectively, in 2013, will lead the regional organisation for another two years.
Cameron, 44, had campaigned on his accomplishments over the past term, including the setting up a fully professional four-day first-class in the Caribbean, as well as improvement in relations with the West Indies Players Association.
Garner, in the meantime, had proposed better governance and finance structures, and placing greater emphasis on develop programs aimed at improving the West Indies world rankings.

THE Eimac division of CPI is now delivering production quantities of the 4CX20,000E power tetrode for new FM transmitter construction as well as retrofits of transmitters now using the YC-130.
Available from Richardson Electronics , the 4CX20,000E is a ceramic/metal power tetrode intended for use as a VHF power amplifier.
It features a type of internal mechanical structure, which results in RF operating efficiency. Low RF losses in this structure permit operation at full ratings to 110MHz.
The 4CX20,000E provides high gain in FM broadcast service and is also recommended for RF linear power amplifier service. The anode is rated for 20 kilowatts of dissipation with forced-air cooling and incorporates a compact, highly efficient cooler of new design.
Eimac vice president of marketing John Allan said the 4CX20,000E incorporated most of the features of the 4CX20,000C and was designed to mechanically fit into the same socket and chimney as the YC-130.
"We expect that customers will be pleased with the longer lifetime of this tube and the excellent performance in their transmitters," he said.
Replacing the YC-130 in existing equipment will require a replacement of the filament transformer, as this tube operates from 10 volts, and a service bulletin for converting the Continental Electronics 816R is available on their website at www.contelec.com.
The YC-130 will also continue to be available, offering a choice of tubes to Eimac customers and supporting fielded transmitters.

In Global Warming: Looking beyond Kyoto, some of the best-known and respected authorities in climate policy-including members of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)-provide a comprehensive agenda for global collective action. Representing both industrialized and developing nations, the contributors present a thought-provoking examination of the economic, social, and political context of climate policy within their countries.
With Kyoto's emissions targets set to expire in 2012, these authors call for a multilateral approach that goes beyond the mitigation-focused Kyoto policies, balancing them with strategies for adaptation.
This book brings together many of the leading thinkers on climate change science, economics, and politics. It is one-stop shopping for a synopsis of the major debates and challenges surrounding efforts to craft a global response to this enormously complex problem. Billy Pizer, Resources for the Future
"Each contribution brings a special perspective, and the very diversity of the views expressed makes this a must read for all interested in the complex challenges of climate change." Kemal Dervis, United Nations Development Program

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Performing in front of millions of people for the first time, beating out thousands of other highly talented competitors, defeating nerves and self-doubt -- winning "American Idol" may have been the easy part.
Now, Scotty McCreery has to figure out how to turn victory into a high-level career.
One doesn't always translate into other. But the teenager isn't thinking of his first post-"Idol" album, "Clear As Day," as a make-or-break situation. He prefers the long view. He wouldn't mind being the next superstar alum of "Idol," successfully transitioning in the way multiplatinum stars Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson have.
If not, though, he's still going to play baseball in the spring. He's still going to college in a year. He's still ... Scotty. And superstar status -- or lack thereof -- won't change much.
"People, they bring that up a lot," McCreery said. "For me, it's not so much about that aspect. The other 'Idols,' they have a lot of success in what they're doing. They get to do music every day for the rest of their lives. They may not have the most mainstream, big success, but they're still doing what they love. And we talked to some of the 'Idols' when they came to the show about that. Right now, we're doing what we feel's right."
McCreery, who turned 18 last Sunday, had a fairly simple and normal life until about a year ago. From small-town Garner, N.C., he was a pitcher and a member of the chorus with an unbelievably deep voice who occasionally participated in small talent shows.
A year later, he's a TV star, a veteran of a national tour, and he and his family face myriad decisions -- from which songs to record to complicated financial dealings -- that could have a profound effect on his life for decades to come.
Way more worrisome than whether he can hit the high notes.
"There's never been a teenage boy to really make it in country music so there's no formula for what he should do," Scotty's mother, Judy, said. "So, I do sit back and wonder if this is the right move, are these the right songs, is this the right atmosphere? Things have been chugging along, and all the right things are happening and all the right people are in his path, so I'm just trying to let go and let nature take its course. Something's working."
While competing in Los Angeles, McCreery met most of the former "Idol" winners. A few brought gifts. All came bearing advice.
"A lot of it was enlightening," McCreery said. "For the most part, they had one common theme: Stay true to yourself and don't let the business get to you because it's a completely different world out there than this 'Idol' bubble and the life we knew before. They said just stay true to your boots, and it will all be good."
McCreery figured out one part of the formula quickly. He focused on the music, picking up quickly on the Nashville mantra: It's all about the song.
He teamed with producer Mark Bright, a veteran who has worked with Underwood, Reba McEntire, Rascal Flatts, Luke Bryan and Billy Ray Cyrus, and the call went out to Nashville's songwriting community. They were looking for songs written specifically for McCreery that would reflect his sensibility.
He got songs from notable writers like Brett James, Casey Beathard, Craig Wiseman and Keith Urban, who suggested his old song "Walk in the Country" from his early career in The Ranch. Like all the others, McCreery gave it close consideration before recording it.
As those former winners suggested, he stayed true to his boots.
"I'd get a lot of outside opinions and stuff -- Does this feel right? Does it sound good?" Scotty said. "Ultimately, it has to feel right to me, and it had to feel good to me so I didn't have to fake it when I was recording it. All these songs on this album are 100 percent me."
Each of the 12 songs comes from a youthful perspective or voice, and McCreery says they just naturally fell into categories of love -- romantic love, family love, love for the place you come from.
These are themes that will be familiar to his fans, who turned out in record numbers to help with his victory. More than 39 million people watched the final episode, and the 122.4 million votes cast for the finale set a new mark.
Brian Wright, Universal Music Nashville senior vice president of A&R, thinks those numbers might just be an early indicator that McCreery will be very popular, "if he's not already a superstar. I think in the public eye that he is."
The trick is to build on that, and Wright thinks that will come naturally. He believes McCreery has the "it" factor stars need to build and keep a large audience.
"I didn't get to meet him until the week before the final," Wright said. "All of that on TV was really good. But once I finally met him, I got it. Sometimes in this business, we get jaded about making sure everything's perfect -- the artist, the look, the sound -- when it really is just about connecting to your audience. I think Scotty does a great job of that, and what you see on TV is what you get."
Easy-going. Friendly. Sometimes, his mom wishes he wasn't quite so accessible.
"Like today, he walked out of the bathroom at the airport, and there were two ladies waiting to take his picture," Judy said. "I went, 'Oh, really at quarter of 7 in the morning? Can't this boy get some relief?' But the show creates that image that this person's like in your family. They feel like they know them. So, Scotty's like, 'Be nice, mom.' He's like, 'You know I'm famous.' "
And she responded: "Well, you're not famous to me; you're just Scotty."

PEEKSKILL, N.Y. - Peekskill cab driver Terrance Camper, who was shot to death Wednesday, fell victim to a plot designed by his wife and her ex-convict lover, Peekskill Police said Friday.
Peekskill Police Chief Eugene Tumolo said Beatrice Camper, 60, and her lover, John Murray, 60, of Newburgh, who were charged in the slaying, planned to collect on two insurance policies taken out on Terrance Camper's life. Tumolo said police did not yet know the exact value of insurance policies but said, "They're sizable."
Terrance Camper, 53, was shot twice in the back of the head with a small-caliber handgun on Pine Street, about 1:30 p.m., Wednesday, and his body was found later that afternoon by a postal worker. Tumolo said that Murray is accused of being the shooter.
Murray was released from prison 11 months ago, said Tumolo, but police believe Beatrice Camper and Murray had been carrying on an intimate relationship for more than one year. Murray served at least 30 years in state prison after being convicted of murder, robbery and other crimes committed in Queens, N,.Y., said Tumolo.
Police do not believe that Terrance Camper knew about the affair. Murray and Beatrice Camper intended "to be together" after Terrance Camper's death, police said.
"I think the facts speak for themselves, it has the elements of all the negative qualities in the human experience, this was predicated solely on greed and selfishness," Tumolo said Friday, after Camper and Murray were arrested.
Both suspects are charged with second-degree murder, a felony. The chief also said the investigation will continue.
"This is the result of some very hard-nosed, textbook investigation," said Tumolo, who said there were no witnesses to the shooting.
"He was a very affable guy, well known in the community," said Tumolo, who knew Terrance Camper, and said he came from a large Peekskill family which also had roots in Highland Falls, N.Y.
Some family members stood outside the Peekskill Police Department before Friday morning's news conference. Although police had not announced why Beatrice Camper was arrested, it was known she had been arrested.
"When is happened it shocked me, I couldn't understand why someone would kill him," said his oldest brother, Otis Camper. "I didnt see her that much," he said about Terrance's wife.
Rodney Holliman, a first cousin, reacting to Terrance Camper being set up for murder, said, "You got to put all the trust and everything in God, and hope that everything comes out fair, you know, people getting what they deserve, he didn't deserve that."

Dear Friends,
Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your State Representative. It's an honor I've had for nearly twenty years. I see the compassion and determination of the people in our community every day. It hasn't been long since Hurricane Harvey devastated our area. The country looked on with concern and wondered how we would respond. Now millions have seen what I see every day. We came together and showed the strength and resolve of the Texas Spirit.
Countless individuals have provided critical supplies, support and care in the aftermath of the storm. First responders bravely risked their lives to save others. Folks have opened their homes to complete strangers who lost everything. Neighbors came together to clean up their streets and homes.
The rebuilding process is just beginning. I'm working closely with the Governor's Commission to Rebuild Texas to get the assistance we need to rebuild our damaged infrastructure. I'm coordinating with other elected officials, church organizations and civic groups aiding in the recovery effort. I will stop at nothing to get the resources our community needs to recover from this disaster.
I have never been more proud to say I represent House District 30. We will come out of this stronger than ever before. I'd be honored to have your vote to continue working for you in Austin.
God bless you and God bless Texas,

Tagada ride is a popular amusement ride. It can be divided into the mini tagada ride. And the tagada ride is on a sale. Riding the amusement tagada ride is very interesting.
Tagada ride, also referred to as tagada disco, it is applied in theme park, fairground and playground. This thrilling ride includes a big round bowl where riders can seat without seat belts and restrains, but with bars people could hold and back to. The riders sit on the sofa in a circle, just as wandering in the world. The passion rhythm and rocking motion would relax their body and mind.
The bottom of rotary round bowl is composed of two main cylinders, two auxiliary cylinders and one live hinged support. The passengers sit in the circular seats and spin along with the round bowl. Under bright music accompaniment, the two main cylinders and two auxiliary cylinders respectively raise and drop the bowl rhythmically and repeatedly. The riders are just like jumping music notes. Leap, jounce and slip occurred in running of disco tagada forms a funny and humorous scene. Tourists off the stage will be attracted or even aroused by it and they will have strong interest and lust to participate in this stimulating activity.
it is really reassuring that the ride is equipped with various safe devices with distinct functions. For example, detector switch for designated parking cabin door is a proximity switch, which is used to park the equipment accurately and facilitate the riders to get in and out. Detector switch for cabin door closing and pedals is a travel switch. As long as the cabin door is not closed and pedals are not raised to right level, the machine will not be launched. The operator would open the bowl gate and allow tourists to enter and sit on the seats and then close the gate.
The tagada rides are made with multiple models and styles. Relying on gorgeous background, colorful platform and comfortable seats, the ride is more amusing at night when beautiful lights are lit up and animated music is played. It will bring much fun for children and adults. Riding the tagada ride is a good experience.

Let's go Camping!
If you love the outdoors, then camping in Cyprus is an activity you should try out.
Although camping isn't as popular among visitors to the island, we highly recommend it. It's another kind of experience that - if you 're up to it - will allow you to have a great time.
There are camping sites by the sea and camping sites in the picturesque mountains of the island. Troodos has three camping sites where camping is allowed for a small fee per overnight stay. The sites offers basic facilities such as barbecue sites, potable water, benches, tables and washrooms.
Within the framework of the efforts to improve the opportunities for recreation offered by forests, the Forestry Department has developed, and has been continuously improving, a series of recreation facilities such as picnic and camping sites, nature trails, view points, bicycle paths, visitor centers and botanical gardens. These works are funded from the state budgets and recently from the Rural Development Plan.
The picnic and camping sites, started to be created since the 1950's. Today there are 40 picnic and 5 camping sites in the state forests of the government controlled areas of Cyprus.
Camping sites offer corresponding facilities such as camping places, parking and sanitary facilities, drinking water, tables, barbecues and children playgrounds while in some of them electricity, baths and kitchens are also provided.

The Akamas Peninsula is included in Natura 2000, the European network of protected areas, since it is a unique habitat with rich and rare flora and fauna.

Every year the 21st of March is observed around the globe as the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The date recalls the tragic loss of life at Sharpeville in South Africa in 1960, and is dedicated by the United Nations to the achievement of the goals of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. New Zealand signed the convention on 25 October 1966 and ratified it on 22 November 1972.
Community groups, councils, schools, workplaces, marae and places of worship are encouraged to celebrate the value of cultural diversity and the need to support harmonious race relations. Wellington City Libraries is celebrating in many different ways, and we'd love for you to join us!
What's happening at our libraries to mark this day?
- Mervyn Kemp Library (in Tawa) has — in partnership with school children from St Francis de Xavier and the Human Rights Commission — collected family stories describing whakapapa and settlement in Aotearoa. These stories will be collected into a book which will be part of our lending collection.
- Newtown library has a special multilingual storytime today at 10.30 followed by a shared morning tea (bring a plate!)
- Johnsonville library has activities planned with class visits. Make sure also to check out their special bilingual picture book displays! (Miramar Library will also be having special bilingual picture book displays.)
- Come along to Karori library after school today from 3.30-4.30 for a special treat with Chinese music, belly dancing and kapa haka!
- And last but certainly not least – we will be having a Russian Morning Tea at Cummings Park Library (in Ngaio), at 11am on Thursday 22 March. We'll be drinking Russian tea made in a samovar and exploring the fantastic collection of translated Russian material available at Wellington City Libraries!
Everyone is welcome to these free events. Come along – we'd love to see you there!
If you want to contribute by sharing your family story, please have a look at our Community Stories page. We look forward to hearing from you!

phone calls and rain
So there I was quietly working away at home on Monday and my mobile rings, nothing new there then, it normally never stops ringing. But surprise surprise it was Virgin Media Complaints department (yes the same department I have e-mailed twice without reply). First they apologised for not contacting me earlier, they have a back log of complaints (not something you want to broadcast). For the next 20 or so minute we discussed the problem I had and the work that Virgin are supposed to be doing, the end result is that the work is in hand with no time-scale, I currently have 1 month credit for the broadband and I will be calling in 4 weeks time to get another months credit if there is no improvement and will keep doing so until it is fixed. I think this will be going on for a few weeks yet…………
I have a few days of for the sons half term, so as he decided to he wanted to go with his aunt to Southampton, I was free to go for a bike ride…………in the rain. The day did not start well, I woke up the second the alarm went off and could not go back to sleep, I had planned to stay in bed till at least 8am but got up at 7:15. I went to get my GPS out and check the route I wanted was loaded on the gps and I could not get it to switch on. This meant a change of route so instead of the New Forest and exploring new routes I would go to Moors Valley and ride some bits I have not ridden for a 12 month or so. After loading the van in the rain I decided to give the gps one last chance and it worked, so it was Burley here I come.
I had packed my rain jacket and trousers ready for the onslaught but as there was very little rain when I set off, they stayed in my bag but I was expecting to be getting them out sooner rather than later. So I was more than a little surprised about an hour later to be taking my jumper off as the sun was out and I was getting a little warm. A short while later my gloves were taken off as my hand were sweating in my gloves (first time I have worn them since last winter). The route was a shorter version of the Autumn falling leaves ride, I was trying to avoid riding some of the roads (I'm a mountain biker not a roadie) and trying some alternative paths to the wide gravel fire roads. Well some of those paths were wet, muddy and flooded, it was er, interesting. I enjoyed my 20 miles round the forest, was expecting to get absolutely soaked but never got wet (if you don't include anything below my knees).
More riding later in the week but apparently we are shopping tomorrow……….

The cherry-stained island is topped with a dark stone counter and white trough sink, contrasted by white wall cabinets with a butcher block countertop. White subway tiles and yellow paint keep this traditional kitchen cheerful.
Matching tile backsplashes over the sink and cooktop spice up white cabinets, black countertops and hardwood flooring.
In this traditional kitchen, the cherry wood used for the island and the custom-built breakfast hutch to provide warmth and richness against the cool blue-gray walls and white cabinets used elsewhere.
This contemporary classic kitchen is an entertainer's dream, with a large angled island split into zones for
food prep, cooking and socializing. Mullioned French doors, a bay window and two skylights connect this space to the outdoors.
For the true connoisseur, a wine room with wooden storage rack and nearby tasting counter is a must. A prep sink and paneled dishwasher complete the wet bar.
An arched-top window and antique French buffet make the sink area a natural focal point. Dark granite countertops and cognac-stained maple cabinets complete the formal yet comfortable style.
In addition to a cooktop, this kosher kitchen includes two sinks, two ovens and two microwaves. White panels that match the cabinetry conceal the refrigerator and two dishwashers. The range and hood serve as the room's focal point.
This gourmet kitchen includes multiple workstations. The cooking zone features a six burner Wolf range and hammered copper ventilation hood, while the island offers a prep area with a sink and wide mahogany counter.
Traditional cabinetry accommodates modern amenities. Built-in appliances include a refrigerator, double wall oven and espresso maker. The downdraft ventilation system behind the cooktop lowers when not in use.
Notable elements of this reproduction French-style kitchen include wrought-iron stools with black-and-white striped seats and cabinets with sanded edges and beaded inset glass doors.
Heavy crown molding tops dark cherry cabinetry and helps create a decorative soffit and a glass-front display cabinet. Tall pull-out storage columns flank an integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator.
Square, raised-panel kitchen cabinetry runs along three walls, interrupted only by appliances and a window. Matching panels conceal a built-in refrigerator and trash compactor. A barbell-shaped island puts the gas cooktop near the sink and wall oven, with seating space on the other end.
Elegant green marble counters and floors work alongside cream-colored Corian countertops on the lower level of the kitchen island. Rich floral swags and gleaming cherry wood pillars complete the look.
A five-burner gas cooktop highlights this kitchen's cooking zone. Custom birch cabinets with a buttercream finish and brown glaze provide subtle elegance to the space, and the diagonal entertainment center made with cherry wood matches the kitchen's island countertop.

Rep. Jerry McNerney, D-Stockton, is joining the burgeoning ranks of members of Congress calling for the resignation of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki.
Rep. Jerry McNerney, D-Stockton, is joining the burgeoning ranks of members of Congress calling for the resignation of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki.
McNerney issued a statement this week calling for the resignation after the VA Inspector General's interim report detailed delays in medical care to veterans at a number of VA centers.
"The unacceptable delays in Phoenix were not an isolated incident, but rather appear to be part of a larger pattern of neglectful actions in certain VA medical facilities," McNerney said in the statement.
"I believe the best way to restore the confidence of our veterans is for Secretary Shinseki to step down and allow new leadership."
Jeff Denham, R-Turlock, has also called for Shinseki to resign.
The American Legion and dozens of Republicans have called for Shinseki to resign, including Jeff Miller of Florida, chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee on which Denham serves.
McNerney, first elected to office in 2006, has made veterans issues one of his priorities in office and once served on the House Committee on Veterans Affairs.
A VA official said Thursday that Shinseki met with leaders of 23 military and veterans service organizations, telling them that the findings in the report were "reprehensible."
Shinseki is expected to release results as soon as today of a system-wide audit of scheduling policy and practices.

New research suggests that Americans aren't obese because we eat too much. It's because we exercise too little. And by too little I mean, not at all.
And whatever exercise we get peaks before the age of 10 — and perhaps as early as 2 — and is in steady decline after that, according to another study.
Researchers at Stanford University Medical Center examined 22 years of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a long-term project of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It included results from surveys and physical exams.

Businesses are leveraging the power of the internet to boost their sales and profits. The goal is to get as much online traffic to their website as possible so they can convert the visitors into customers and make money. For this purpose, they make use of the two best internet marketing solutions available to them, namely search engine optimization (SEO) and pay per click (PPC). They don't care whether they receive PPC traffic or SEO traffic as long as the number of visitors to their landing page keeps increasing.
The paucity of viable internet marketing solutions may make you think as those choosing one is easy. This is hardly the case though. For the average marketer, deciding to select one out of the two options is a difficult decision to make. The confusion is compounded by the fact that the two are as different as chalk and cheese. The result they deliver is uniform, i.e. a larger volume of traffic to the business' website. It is the approach which is diametrically dissimilar.
SEO makes use of keywords for optimizing websites and getting them to the top of search engine rankings. Needless to say, it takes time for SEO solutions to deliver the results you want. On the other hand, PPC employs ads for your business posted across the internet. Every time someone clicks on an ad related to your business, you would have to pay the host. As compared to SEO, the PPC solutions can provide the results in quick time and without too much effort.
On the surface, it may seem as though PPC is the right choice for your business. After all, it required lesser time and resources. But that isn't the only thing you should be considering when making your decision. This is why deciding between PPC vs. SEO online traffic is so difficult. Each option has its merits and demerits which you need to understand before selecting the one you want to use for your business. Let's look at both of them separately.
Pay per Click (PPC)
PPC has a limited scope when it comes to online marketing. This makes it the ideal solution to use if you want to promote a specific product or service on your website rather than the entire business website. It is even more effective if the product is a newly launched one and has not yet made its mark in the market. Since PPC involves getting people to click on your ad and be directed to a landing page, you can keep a tab on each customer's journey from start to finish.
PPC is known to deliver results from the outset. Provided you have all the pieces in place, you can find success with PPC in no time at all. At the same time though, PPC solutions can prove to be incredibly expensive for you. The reason for this may be not using the right keyword or overlooking any other important aspect of your campaign. A major drawback of PPC campaigns is that setting up an account is so easy that a person starts believing getting results would be a piece of cake as well.
All said and done your PPC campaign accounts for merely 25% of the total online traffic that your website can generate. Despite this, the amount of money you spend on it would be at least two to three times that you spend on SEO. This is why you need to be absolutely sure that you can make PPC work before deciding to opt for it. If you believe you have the ability to make the most of PPC solutions, only then should you opt for them. Else, SEO is a great alternative available to you.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
SEO is a long-term investment in terms of time and effort but not in terms of money. In fact, you will find that the money you spend on your SEO campaign hardly makes up a quarter of your total online marketing budget. This is the reason why SEO is considered to be such an effective means of marketing a business online. Unlike PPC, SEO solutions give you the chance to promote your entire website or a specific landing page, depending purely on your needs and preferences.
However, achieving results with SEO takes a lot of time compared to PPC. Add to that the fact that search engine algorithms keep changing which makes life difficult for the SEO experts. Even with the two major drawbacks, SEO can still deliver up to 75% of the online traffic for your website. Moreover, the SEO traffic you generate through your efforts is continuous and ongoing. This makes SEO a more permanent solution than PPC.
With SEO, you can get more people to visit your website and the visitors to spend more time on your website. This is a major benefit PPC solutions cannot deliver for you. Plus, you have the option of using tools like SEMrush to find the right keywords for your SEO campaign that you can use to optimize your website and landing page. SEMrush can play a major role in helping you set up an effective SEO campaign and make the most of it.
Final Word – PPC vs. SEO
It is tough to select one from the two options available to you. Thus the best way to benefit from the internet marketing solutions for you would be to use them in combination. PPC will deliver the short-term results and SEO would help consolidate the success you achieve. Both of them would enable you to increase the volume of online traffic you generate. Though SEO is comparatively better in terms of delivering results, one cannot ignore the efficacy of PPC solutions which is why you should use both.

drivin' n' cryin' plays its first show at the 688 Club in October, winning over skeptical Nightporters fans who wondered, "Who the hell is Kev(i)n and why is Tim playing with him?"
688 owners love the band so much that they start a record label. scarred but smarter, recorded in five days with engineer George Pappas, comes out that fall and immediately causes a ruckus on the college radio charts.
Island Records, trying to expand its U.S. A&R presence after its London office enjoys surprising success with The Long Ryders and The Rain Parade, signs drivin' n' cryin' and buys worldwide rights to scarred but smarter. Label executives immediately start complaining about the "confusing" apostrophes and lower-case band name.
That summer, the band records Whisper Tames the Lion in New York City with producer Anton Fier, who brings his own secret sauce (read "studio musicians") to the recording process. The result is a brilliant album that doesn't quite represent what the band was doing live.
Whisper Tames the Lion comes out to widespread acclaim and college radio success. The band makes a video for "Can't Promise You the World" that gets played a couple of times on MTV's 120 Minutes. Results were promising, but not yet spectacular.
Everything changed when the band returned to Atlanta for a two-night stand at the legendary Cotton Club at the corner of 10th & Peachtree. Booked for a two-night stand in the 400-capacity club, response was overwhelming. The club ignored code (Atlanta fire marshals didn't make the kind of unannounced visits that were the plague of the LA club scene in the 80s) and crammed 1500 customers into the room over the two nights. Atlanta's long-term love affair with drivin' n' cryin' was officially on.
Still, Island wasn't totally convinced the band had a future. While the band continued touring in the South, no decision about a new album was forthcoming until fall when R.E.M. surprised the label by offering drivin' n' cryin' an opening slot the next spring's Green tour if the band also had a new album to promote. Suddenly very interested in the drivin' n' cryin's future, Island scrambled to find a producer who could record the album in time for a March release.
After the label rejected drivin' n' cryin's request to work with the not-yet-famous Atlanta engineer Brendan O'Brien ("why would we hire the Georgia Satellites' old piano player?"), the band instead recorded Mystery Road with the guy that Island had just hired to produce demos for Roving Boy, a band fronted by Chris Blackwell's close personal friend Kevin Costner.
Mystery Road, featuring "Honeysuckle Blue" and "Straight to Hell," got a rapturous reception from the band's fans, although Island was incredibly pissed off when drivin' n' cryin' insisted on opening the album with the fiddle-heavy "Ain't It Strange." The R.E.M. tour was a great success and the band sold out Atlanta's massive Fox Theatre for the first time that July.
Despite some strong commercial airplay for "Honeysuckle Blue" in the South, Island still had doubts about its commitment to drivin' n' cryin's future. A compromise finally emerged: Island would allow Kevn to record a solo folk album if the band promised to severely curtail the "country shit" on its next album.
Kevn Kinney releases MacDougal Blues, a solo album produced by Peter Buck that was chock full of mandolins, fiddles and acoustic guitar. Island executives are not-so-secretly relieved when Kevn and Peter's tour ends in April. Now it's showtime.
After an extensive producer search, the band settles on the legendary Andy Johns, widely beloved for his work with Television, Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones and secretly beloved by a faction in the band for his work with Rod Stewart and Cinderella. Ten days before the band was scheduled to begin recording in Memphis, Johns called with terrible news: he was incredibly ill and his doctor forbade him to travel from Los Angeles. Fortunately for Andy, he was able to recuperate that summer by lying on a sofa in the control room during the recording of Van Halen's For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge. Van Halen was so inspired by Andy's recovery that they awarded him producer credit on the album.
Scrambling now, drivin' n' cryin' had a stroke of luck when they hired the not-quite-as-famous-but-ever-more-reliable Geoff Workman (who had engineered Queen and The Cars for Roy Thomas Baker and later produced Ian McLagan and Journey) to produce Fly Me Courageous. After a summer-long recording session in Memphis, Drivin N Cryin agreed to capitalize its name and drop those damn apostrophes; the stage was set for a huge year to follow.
Fly Me Courageous, loud, propulsive and remarkably free of that "country shit," was released January 8, 1991. "Fly Me Courageous" (the song) became a massive rock radio hit, in no small part driven by the (true) story that Navy pilots were listening to cassingles on the song in their cockpits as they bombed Baghdad during Operation Desert Storm. Both the "Fly Me Courageous" and "Build a Fire" videos were played in regular rotation on MTV and the album went gold on the back of a long tour that peaked with a three-night sellout of Fox Theatre back home in Atlanta.
During the summer of 1992, Drivin N Cryin reconvened in Atlanta with producer Geoff Workman to record Smoke, a record written and recorded in direct response to the current vogue for "punk" music made by closet metalheads from the Pacific Northwest. Declaring "You want punk, you punk? Let's talk about the real junk," Smoke was a defiant howl of protest against the flannel plague. After years of getting asked when they were going to stop being so alternative and finally open the Aerosmith tour, now Drivin N Cryin was being told to go stand over there in music jail with Slaughter, Tattoo Rodeo and all the other metal bands.
Smoke gets off to a strong commercial start but quickly fades. Extensive touring fails to revive the album. Since Island had been folded into Polygram Label Group, the band had few personal relationships at the label. By mutual agreement, Drivin N Cryin was off the roster by the end of the year.
drivin' n' cryin' quickly reclaims its original spelling and signs to Geffen Records, much to the shock of everyone at Island. They relocate to California to record with John Porter, producer of the Smiths.
drivin' n' cryin' delivers Wrapped in Sky to Geffen. Unfortunately, Kevn neglected to write any uptempo "rawk" songs in the vein of the singles from Fly Me Courageous. Geffen, deep in the throes of a "What Would Kim Gordon Do?" mania and desperately trying to be the hippest major label (a mass hallucination that led directly to the label's demise just four years later), released the album but pretended they didn't know anyone in the band.
Bloodied but unbowed, the band returned to its independent roots with the self-titled drivin n cryin, the band's name now mysteriously missing its apostrophes. Recorded back home in Atlanta with former Clash manager Kosmo Vinyl, the record's success led to extensive touring with The Who.
After a long break, Tim, Mac and Dave join Kevn in Hoboken, NJ for a recording session that will eventually be released on Kevn's Broken Hearts and Auto Parts solo CD. The sessions go so well that the band reconvenes in Atlanta in September to record demos for a new drivin' n' cryin' album. Plans for the album were abandoned after the September 11th attacks, but the reconstituted band slowly begins playing shows together.
Several years overdue, Kevn has surgery to remove nodes from his vocal chords. The recovery is a surprisingly fast one and his voice sounds better than it has since the early days of the band. Serious discussions about a new album start at the end of the year.
After making deals with local Atlanta label Vintage Earth and Nashville marketing and distribution company Thirty Tigers, Drivin' N' Cryin' records Great American Bubble Factory at Sonica Studios in Atlanta, reuniting with Whisper Tames the Lion producer Anton Fier and ex-manager James Barber for the sessions.
Drivin N Cryin performs more shows this year than they have in a decade. Fans and critics alike hail the band's renewed energy and creative output. Work begins on the definitive film documentary of DNC's 25 year career with Atlanta's Rock 100.5 The Regular Guys' Eric Von Haessler at the helm. Videos for 'Detroit City' and 'I See Georgia' generate new fans and remind old fans why DNC is a must-see-live sensation.
The State of Georgia honors Drivin n Cryin on March 10 with Resolution 387, recognizing the band for it's charity, longevity, service, and cultural contribution. Sadler Vaden, voted Charleston, SC's Best Guitar Player 2011, replaces Mac Carter on lead guitar. With deep roots in soul, punk, rock and jazz idioms, Sadler's stunning guitar playing and vocal abilities breathe new life into Drivin N Cryin. Fans and critics alike attest to a renewed energy and direction for Drivin N Cryin's music and career. Plans are laid for a new record…. The road beckons once again…
Drivin N Cryin signs a distribution deal with Redeye and begins the process of creating and recording material for 4 EPs to be released over a 12 month period. The band drops its long-time booking agent to sign on with the William Morris Endeavor, a global entity with deep resources and long arms. EP#1 "Songs From The Laundromat" is given a June 12 release date. Produced by Kevn Kinney, this 5 song collection was recorded in Atlanta, GA with 'Great American Bubble Factory' alumnus John Briglevich. EP#2 'Songs About Cars, Space & The Ramones' is tracked in Nashville with super-producer Paul Ebersold at the helm. Intending to record 5 songs in 2 days, the band actually lays down tracks for 11 songs in 2 days! 'SACS&theR' is given a September 18, 2012 release date. To be continued…

*To delete older restore points, but leave the system restore turned on:
Go to start/ My computer/ right Click the Drive in question/Properties/Disk Cleanup/More
Options tab on the next window/ System Restore/Cleanup.*
Then lets alter the amount of space used for restore points. It is probably at default of 12%.
Go to start/ run/ type in sysdm.cpl/ at click on ok.
On the system restore tab near the middle (right side) is settings. Click on settings.
Bring the slider down to about 6-7%.
Get us another screen shot of computer management (instructions in post 3)
I suspect that you have more than just programs left on that drive. This is based on what I see and knowing what I have on my company laptop that has 7% left on a 40gb drive (it is packed with programs and data).
Rshaffer61 If we get some space, you might want to run TreeSize to see what shows up. I need to leave.

I saw this in an older Fine Woodworking issue (#202) and was compelled to finish my outfeed table for my Unisaw.
Mine needs to be built a little different as I have the sliding table to the left of my saw, and the left extension wing is removed. My storage below the table will really only have only one usable side and end. I designed it to be 90 degrees from the photo, two drawers at the bottom, table saw blade storage, and an open spot for my dado blade kits on the higher level.
I started out with the only 3/4" baltic birch I had on hand being a little warped and that has caused all kinds of issues.
Decided to update the storage system for my table saw blades as well, not fond of the idea of damaging the teeth if one slipped out of my hand (as in the photo above). I found a number of concepts, combined them and hope mine turns out well.
Now have the cabinet built (working on straightening middle shelf now) and working on the 1/2" pieces for the blade storage.
I attempted to build this unit without mechanical fasteners (using only glue and the Festool Domino system), but with the warped plywood, ended up putting in one screw and a few brads to tighten the joints up.
Trying to pressure the center shelf and bottom of the case to bend a bit with clamps and cauls…not having much luck.
I built the case 42" long x 27 1/2" wide.
A 4" base includes the adjustable feet.
The case is almost 29 1/4" tall, and adding the laminated piece for the top, it comes close to 34" (height of the top of the Unisaw).
The shelves are ganged together to sand out irregularities in the bandsaw cuts.
The 1/2" shelves are sanded now and next I will rout the front edge and access hole, then add the spacers / slides.

Updating my previous comment, I've had a chance to try Tolk and had success with the language that I use, BBC BASIC for Windows. Oddly, it didn't seem to support SAPI, which it says it does, but it worked okay with NVDA.
The problem with Echo Quadrant is with my use of asynchronous speech. Because NVDA doesn't appear to support asynchronous speech then there are announcements that get overwritten and never get a chance to finish.
If I do attempt a bigger and better game then I will write it for use with Tolk and screen readers. And I'll put in more keyboard shortcuts.

Dear MISSter Simms,
First, thanks for reading my letter. Now, I've been dating this guy for a year and we are in love. I mean REALLY in love. It's like we've known each other forever. I can't even really imagine living without him now and am not sure how I ever lived without him in the first place. That's how serious it is. But, of course, there is a problem. Why else would I be writing to you? You see, while WE are very much in love, my family hates him and his family. I come from a pretty stable, fairly well off family, while my boyfriend comes from a poorer family that has lots of problems. He is super hardworking and has to help provide for his family while his brother goes off and parties 24/7.
My parents are worried that my boyfriend and his family won't ever be able to take care of me if we got married. I, on the other hand, think we would be just fine if we got married in a few years. But I know that if we did get married, my family would not be happy…and I couldn't be happy if my family hated me. But then I wouldn't be happy if I had to dump my boyfriend due to my family's pressure either. Should I give in to my parents and crush this guys heart forever, or give in to my own desires and be disowned? Help!
Love or Money
Dear LoM,
I think it's time you severed the cord and cut your family off.
Here's why:
I can understand why you'd feel such intense loyalty to your family. They take care of you and have probably been there the entirety of your life, raising you, giving you things you wanted, making sure you weren't broke or stripping in a dive bar to pay for college. They've probably been there through all the hard times in your life. I'm sure they love you very, very much.
Now you've got your own boo that you're thinking of starting a family with some day, which is awesome. And they're hating because, to them, your boyfriend isn't good enough. The thing is, if he's good enough for you he should be good enough for them too. Who cares if he's broke and comes from a broke family. According to you he's hard working, and I assume you'd be pulling your own weight should the two of you get married. If you were into the 24/7 partying brother, then I'd think you were crazy…but you're into the sensible one. They should be happy for you! Your happiness should be there happiness etc…etc…
You only get one life, and in this situation you need to start living it for yourself. It may make you sad to piss off your parents so much, but I think you'd be even more unhappy if you were to drop your boo for them. You'd always be wondering what could have been, and you'd probably grow to resent your parents since they'd be the ones who coerced you into doing it. I think your parents need to get over themselves. And you should totally tell them that. They found each other and their own slice of happiness. Why can't you?

Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Vol. V:Early Church Fathers Index Previous Next
On Marriage and Concupiscence.: Chapter 39
Chapter 39 [XXXIV.]—By the Holiness of Baptism, Not Sins Only, But All Evils Whatsoever, Have to Be Removed. The Church is Not Yet Free from All Stain.
And thus not only all the sins, but all the ills of men of what kind soever, are in course of removal by the holiness of that Christian laver whereby Christ cleanses His Church, that He may present it to Himself, not in this world, but in that which is to come, as not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing. Now there are some who maintain that such is the Church even now, and yet they are in it. Well then, since they confess that they have some sins themselves, if they say the truth in this (and, of course, they do, as they are not free from sins), then the Church has "a spot" in them; whilst if they tell an untruth in their confession (as speaking from a double heart), then the Church has in them "a wrinkle." If, however, they assert that it is themselves, and not the Church, which has all this, they then as good as acknowledge that they are not its members, nor belong to its body, so that they are even condemned by their own confession.
