Zambia & Zimbabwe, Chapter 2: Victoria Falls
Notes from my recent trip – organized and hosted by Wilderness Safaris.
The Victoria Falls area really does have something for everyone to do offering bungee jumping, zip lining, safaris, elephant rides, golf, fishing, rafting, gorge swinging, heli flips, micro lighting, a visit to the lip of the Falls, walking tour of the Falls, fixed wing flights, shopping, boating and more.
Two nights is not enough time, but that's what we had so we made the most of it, and we packed in as much as we could, taking advantage of opportunities on both the Zambian side and the Zimbabwean side of the Falls.
We had to fit in an adrenaline experience, and micro lighting was it. I was a "newbie" at this as were my companions so it was a first time experience to this activity, and we were all thrilled to get the opportunity. It was all very professionally organized on the ground and then it was time to take off. The pilot briefed me on the safety aspect and off we went. There is a microphone in the helmet so there is a continual dialogue with the pilot who points things out along the way. There is also a camera fixed on the wing taking photos along the trip so that there is proof that I did in fact take the trip (optional and additional cost). This was an absolutely superb way to view the Falls, and one I would recommend to everyone. I have a terrible fear of heights, but I managed this with no problem whatsoever; I think if I could do it, anyone could. Just being up there open to the breeze, and the sun (rather than being enclosed in something) made it all the more real, and because the flight is relatively low it really did provide, literally, a birds' eye view of everything. Well worth doing!
In addition we spent time at a local village that is sponsored by Wilderness Safaris, went shopping to the craft stalls as well as to the market visited by the locals, took a tour of the Falls, and ended another wonderful fun, educational day with a Sundowner Cruise on the River.

Pontypridd pool plans
Pontypridd's lido was built in 1927 but since its closure in the 1990s, the town has been without a public swimming pool. There are now plans to renovate the outdoor complex.
Live updates
New Pontypridd Lido would be free for children
Children under 12 and an accompanying adult would be allowed free entry to the new Pontypridd Lido if plans to regenerate the old leisure centre are approved.
Rhondda Cynon Taff Council's announcement comes a week after Heritage Lottery Fund confirmed it would invest £2.3 million in the Pontypridd Lido project.
The Council is seeking further funding to make up the shortfall in the £6.2 million redevelopment.
New plans for the Lido include three heated pools, a café, visitor's centre, viewing gallery,and a new changing block.
Pontypridd lido plans
Plans to renovate the old open air lido at Pontypridd are dividing opinion in the town. The swimming complex was once one of more than fifty in Wales. Although it closed in 1991, its one of very few which still lie derelict. Under recent proposals, the lido could be back in business by 2015.

If a woman is experiencing menstrual cramps, Beth W. Orenstein for Everyday Health recommends treating the pain by applying a heat pack, avoiding caffeine and getting a massage with therapeutic essential oils. To treat muscle cramps elsewhere in the body, WebMD recommends bathing in Epsom salts or applying ice.
According to Orenstein, engaging in light exercise and taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and naproxen can also help to get rid of menstrual cramps. WebMD recommends massaging muscle cramps in areas such as the legs and back, or stretching the affected area if the pain is caused by a muscle spasm. Future muscle cramps can be diminished by keeping the body hydrated with water and getting enough magnesium and calcium in the diet.

Machinima: "Plants vs. Zombies has always been a tower defense series, so when the announcement came that it was heading down the third-person shooter route, it definitely turned some heads. But it's a move that's been positively received, especially since Popcap cracked the first joke with their mock Battlefield teaser. If the gameplay demo is anything to go by, fans have quite a gem to look forward to."
I would definitely like to play but I hope its not $60 or even $40, I could definitely see EA pricing that high.
Actually there's a lot put into this game,it's one of the most interesting that I saw at e3.
Wait, its a third-person shooter?? Seriously??
Darn, I was hoping for more tower defense-style play. I mean, I like shooters and all, but I also like PvZ for being a great tower defense game.
EDIT: just checked out the dev diary on youtube and it does look interesting. Its definitely a risk to take a game like this and do a completely new spin on it, but I'm loking forward to trying it out.
It is a tower defense type game think Xcom enemy unknown,looks very promising.

Source: Adam Carolla's Podcast
Stone Cold Steve Austin sat down with Adam Carolla recently to discuss his recent TV endeavors and his wrestling career. Here are some highlights.
How he got started in pro wrestling: "I grew up in a small town in south Texas. Changing channels on the television one day, probably seven years old, and came across Houston Wrestling. There was one light hanging over the arena, two guys fighting for a championship belt. This was back in the day when wrestling was real. This was before all the exposés and the 20/20's and all that stuff. So, wrestling was "real," and I was glued to the screen. Through my athletic stuff and football scholarships through college, once I got out of college I was driving a forklift for Watkins Motor Lines in Dallas, Texas, driving down to the Sportatorium watching the Von Erich's fight the Freebirds. Not in the forklift [laughter]. And a guy had a commercial on TV; teach you how to be a pro wrestler. I always knew in the back of my mind that I was going to be a pro wrestler. My first college major was a business major because I was going to sell insurance with my dad. I figured that'd be the logical thing to do. But man, it kicked the s*** out of me. I dropped it several times to a PE major. And after 17 hours to graduate, I decided nah, this ain't for me. I'm going to go into professional wrestling full time."
How hard life was when he first started wrestling: "We were driving from Nashville to Memphis and Memphis and back, about a 400 mile round trip, making 15 dollars to do that. So the two guys rode with me would just gas up my base model Hyundai Excel, which my brother had co-signed the note for me, payments were 154 bucks a month. I could barely make those damn payments. So guys were chasing me around, trying to collect my car. So times were rough, but that's part of paying the dues process. On Wednesdays we used to always get paid in Evansville, Indiana, and with the little s****y paychecks we were getting, we'd go down to the liquor store in Evansville to buy our beer before we headed home. This was back when it was okay to drink and drive, before everyone started screwing it up. So we'd cash our checks and we'd tell the guy behind the counter there, yeah these are just our trans checks for gas and horse****. But these were the checks we were living on."
When his big break came: "The big break came when I left USWA in Tennessee and went to Atlanta for substantially more money, but not a lot of money. And then a few years later, after I injured my arm, I went to ECW in Philadelphia with Paul Heyman. I started to learn how to cut a damn effective promo. Someone finally gave me a chance and put the microphone in front of my face. And a chance for me to unleash some of the stuff I had inside of me from being screwed over by WCW. WWE called me, picked me up, I went up there and they called me the Ringmaster. Well that sucked ass. I knew it. It wasn't giving me any kind of marquee value. Ain't too many people going to be buying t-shirts with the Ringmaster on it. So I came up with the Stone Cold Steve Austin gimmick, and I pitched that to the office. They started calling me Stone Cold Steve Austin unceremoniously. There was no build up, no hoopla, no bull****. And then one thing turned into another, I knew I was onto something. I just started turning the volume way up on the promo level. I turned the balance up inside the ring, giving out a very credible, believable product. People bought into it, with the storylines and the booking, and it turned into a real strong thing."
His favorite wrestlers: "Man, when you talk about your really good wrestlers, Shawn Michaels to me, is the greatest performer I have ever seen in the ring. Bret 'The Hitman' Hart is the guy whose going to weave together storylines on different levels of psychology and execution, and he's just top notch. Ric Flair is my favorite pro wrestler of all time. So I think when you look pro wrestler up in a dictionary, you see the picture of Ric Flair."
Owen Hart: "I remember I was wrestling Undertaker that night in the main event. I was there. Didn't see it happen. I was in the back, hanging out, waiting for my time to go on. All of a sudden, we get word back that Owen fell, and we knew that he was going to do a gig hanging from the ceiling of the arena, and it was a hell of a fall. And all of a sudden, we get word that he isn't with us anymore. It was a real weird feeling. They said the show must go on, so the show must go on. We're out there tangling in the ring. It's strange, when people pay money to see something, I guess they want to see the end of the show. We're in the back and the boss says go on, so we go on."
His Hall of Fame induction: "I kind of was the head liner, but I can't remember everybody that went in with me. I know Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat was there, which was totally awesome. The Hall of Fame was a real neat deal because they played a little four or five minute package before I went up there. I think I had been so busy between the ropes and on the road, going down the road I never realized what I was doing. I knew I was hot. I knew I was drawing a lot of money. I knew we were selling tickets, but I was too close to the forest to see the trees. Finally at that moment, at the Hall of Fame deal, I really realized the impact I had on the business, and to the people that watched the business. So it was a real neat night at the office, but I cannot remember the entire class."

Another text-based review from Sam!
There's something I find really cool and genuine about minimalist, relatively low budget sci fi films (Looper, Ex Machina, 10 Cloverfield Lane). They kind of capture that DYI aesthetic and science fiction rooted in emotion readily present in Bradbury books and sci fi flicks from the 70s and 80s (Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Starman, ET: The Extraterrestrial) that just aren't around all that much anymore and I connect with so much more than the bigger budget fare (Oblivion, Tomorrowland). Midnight Special definitely falls in the former group.
Midnight Special has wayward old friends Roy and Lucas (Played by Michael Shannon and Joel Edgerton, respectively) teaming up to covertly escort Roy's son, Alton, to an unspecified location in the American South. Roy's young son is capable of some particularly unique feats and he has a mysterious date with destiny that Roy knows his sickly son needs to make.
The furtive nature of their journey is one of necessity: Alton is being hunted by the federal government (Led by Adam Driver as bookish NSA agent, Paul) who view Alton as a weapon, a Waco-themed cult who view him as their savior, and local authorities who think Roy just up and kidnapped his kid from his adoptive couple. Roy and Lucas quietly brandish guns as every pair of headlights could be a different hunter. And those Texan roads sure seem to stretch on forever after dark.
At its core, Midnight Special is at once a story about ordinary people forced to deal with scenarios beyond their natural comprehension and a metaphor for parenthood; Roy has to protect his son from the outside world and then ultimately let him go for whatever fate has in store for him out of his control.
The entire cast brings their A-game and the film is expertly shot; the constraints on the film due to budget are never really felt, not even in the special effects shots. Midnight Special is a performance-driven chase film with sci fi influences running deep. Beautifully paced, shot, and performed, the film doesn't answer all the questions it asks but (I suppose like parenthood) that was never really the goal. A great low budget indie sci fi film (That was a lot of adjectives) and worth checking out if like that sort of sub-genre.

Scholars of colonial America have a new tool for researching religious thought in the Southern colonies. Southern Manuscript Sermons before 1800: A Bibliography, edited by Michael A. Lofaro, is now available in both book and database form. Newfound Press has published the bibliography as a book, available at newfoundpress.utk.edu for online viewing or for print-on-demand. The University of Tennessee Libraries features a searchable database of the bibliography among its digital collections, available at www.lib.utk.edu/digitalcollections.
Southern Manuscript Sermons before 1800 is the first guide to the study of the manuscript sermon literature of the Southern colonies/states of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The bibliography contains entries for over 1600 sermons by over a hundred ministers affiliated with eight denominations.
Richard Beale Davis began the bibliography in 1946 as part of his research for Intellectual Life in the Colonial South, 1585-1763, which won the National Book Award in history. Michael A. Lofaro, Lindsay Young Professor of American studies and American literature at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, took over the project in 1976, expanded the colonial entries (pre-1764), and added the period of 1764-1799. George M. Barringer contributed entries for Jesuit sermons. Sandra G. Hancock contributed those for Thomas Cradock.
Both the book and database contain in-depth descriptions of the sermons, over 90 percent of which are unknown. The database provides multiple avenues of access. Searches can be constructed and limited by single or combined criteria of author, repository, book of the Bible, date, state, denomination, keyword, and short title.
Scholars can employ both versions of this tool to construct a more complete picture of the Southern mind before 1800 and to reveal how that mind contributes to a national ethos. The bibliography will aid many disciplines — religion, cultural and American studies, history, literature, political science, sociology, psychology, etc. — and all those who wish to interpret the past and its effect upon the present. It will lead to a more balanced appraisal of American intellectual history by encouraging access to a large body of southern sermons to place alongside those of the northern and middle states for critical assessment.

Diarrhea and Kids
Being a father of an infant ensures consistently on a regular basis that something or the other will happen to your kid which will make your heart ♥ break out with a pain you never knew could existed. Of course more of it if you are the mom.
So what happened to my princess?
She was all of 9 months when one fine morning after having her usual dose of morning milk (insanely expensive Similac Advance 2 priced at $8.4 for 400g pack or $21 for 1 kg with approximately ) she vomited almost all of it. We didn't really took that as a serious sign and she too didn't seem much troubled apart from the discomfort of vomit. But after around 3 hour when her next feeding time came she was not really wanting to drink the milk. And then in the meantime she had two loose motions which were more liquid like than the usual .
We ignored both conditions . However after her 3rd feed she once again coughed and vomited the milk. And now finally our alarm bell stated to ring, albeit slowly . We started trying to give her some water. Of course I knew how dangerous Diarrhea or loss of water is for any human being particularly for a child.
Diarrhea is the biggest killer of kids below 5 years
Now she was having total count of loose motion frequency till 5pm equal to 6 times.
Again by 7pm she didn't drink and 3 more loose motions. Total count 9 and motions were becoming even more liquid type.
So we decided to visit a local clinic. The doctor gave us some medicines which are all liquid and taste horrible and smell awful. I can almost make a rule which says any infants' syrup is deliberately made to taste like crap. I mean just smell that and you will know.
And here my daughter's first different 1 st "quality" comes in picture. She just can't drink even a drop of any medicine directly in her mouth. We had tried a number of times in last 9 months to no avail. She auto vomits any and every medicine. So we come back with 3-4 syrups and at home try to give them trying one over other. Each time she vomits. The only way to give medicine is by mixing it in the milk she drinks.
Now here's the 2nd really different quality of my daughter. She can never drink milk or any liquid if she is awake. She may sip one or two sips but doesn't drink. Yes she has all her feed only when she is asleep. So how does her 4-7 feeds happen per day ? Well as soon as she starts to feel hungry she starts to cry but at same time starts feeling sleepy. So we prepare the milk and lay her down on lap and then give her the milk. So she sleeps with the nipple in her mouth and drinks milk only after she is fully in sleep. And not once no matter how hungry she has been or in how noisy environment she is she has drunk milk without being in sleep. I don't know why or how she got this habit but may be because I have been feeling her after almost every 2 hours while she was couple of months old in the night in such a way that she would drink milk only when she asleep. This habit of hers was badly affecting her medicine intake capability because add the habit of sleepfeed with medicineonly in milk and if she is unable to sleep due to loose motion then we cannot give her the medicine which will ameliorate her condition.
The last I had vomited was when I had motion sickness in a car on hilly terrain. Try and remember last time you had vomited. Believe me the feeling is too awful.
My daughter had done vomiting 5 times in 9 hours almost all of what she was fed had gone out. Twice the vomit was due to medicine we were trying to give.
So by 8pm we came back and tried to give her medicine followed by vomiting. But to no avail. She seemed to have lost appetite and sleep. But the loose motion now was a bit under control. Maybe because she had not had anything in her stomach so what would she pass.
Time went by and in between we kept trying to feed her oral rehydration solution which we had got from medical store (replenishes the lost salts, potassium – basically is a life saver).
We made a mistake here as well while preparing the solution. The correct way to prepare is mix one packet in 1 litre of water or whatever is written on the packet. You can use the solution for 24 hours. We being too "intelligent" mixed some powder in some water and gave her to drink. This is a big mistake which were to find out later on . Because then there will be either less or more of the salts in the solution which will either way harm the kid/person who is drinking it.
9 pm and she had some water and some milk but not possible to give her enough medicine. And 2 more motions. But next hour she seemed to be getting a bit normal. Playing, giggling.
In between we keep trying to give her ORS liquid as much as possible. But now by around 10.30 pm the Diarrhea starts to worsen. She had one loose motion completely liquid. Then after we clean and in 5 min another one…. Clean… Another clean…… Another…..!!!!!! First time she is drinking ORS directly from bottle while being awake. She is thirsty. She is loosing water. And then she vomits whatever she drunk.
Countless loose motion continues. She drinks….. She vomits…. Passes motion…. Drinks….. Vomits… Agonising to see her thirsty and vomit almost all of 100 ml she drinks…..
For almost 1.5 hours this continues.
Finally it was enough for me. We decide to go to the hospital KOKILABEN Mumbai, it's supposed to be made by India's richest person Ambani. And it is top notch. New hospital. Clean.
We rush in car after packing her in a diaper. This is a BIG BIG mistake. Will explain later. We reach hospital by 2 AM in emergency ward where the least experienced doctors I guess kind of trainees are there. By that time she must have passed at least 5-7 more motions in diaper.
Doctors give an injection of Emeset which is the one which helps you to NOT vomit. Then a REVELATION happens. Doc says there is no medicine as such of loose motion which can be given to a baby of 8 months age.
I just could not believe that one of the biggest killers in the world Diarrhea didn't have a medicine. The only thing that you can do is ensure that you replace the fluid in the baby as much as possible and WAIT.
Basically you wait until your kid keeps passing umpteen loose motion, see her face getting pale with loss of water, eyes sunken, see her crying, see her thirsty……. And WAIT pray and hope that Diarrhea NATURALLY stops. And we say amazing medical advancement. Crap.
3 AM – So after the emeset injection she didn't vomit. We feed her more of correct ORS solution mix. But the loose motion doesn't stop. Why should it stop? After all no medicine exists for loose motion for infants.
We decide to admit her and first thing which doctor says to do – prick my daughter's hand to pass the IV and saline water.
So we finally change her old diaper which she was wearing for almost 3 hours and was passing all her loose motions in it. Why didn't we change earlier? Because for around 45 min after coming to hospital we had not yet decided to admit and hence we didn't have a place where we could have put her and allowed her to pass the motion.
. There were red rashes inside of her thighs and there was pain to her each time she passed motion because with fecal matter it got aggravated while we tried to clean her. We showed that to the doctor and then he says oh yes the rashes would be there. After standing with a crying baby for an hour in front of doctors he says after that you should have clean diaper else rashes will be there. WT hell.
Advice – no matter how messy which place gets if you have a baby passing loose motion you must clean her up after every motion. Never keep same diaper for more than 5 min . Else it will aggravate the redness and bring about rashes due to infection which will be huge problem.
4AM – My daughter is lying, crying, still passing loose motion with one hand held forcefully by me-lest she moves it here and there resulting in her IV fluid connection being ruptured.
5AM – The loose motion now has slowed down a bit too around 5-7 in 1 hour.
7 Am – finally my baby sleeps. We have had exactly 24 hours without sleep. Now either me or my wife has to be awake till baby is sleeping else she may move her hand and the IV injection line may come out.
Luckily within two days we are discharged from hospital. Watching my sleeping baby whose eyes had almost starting to sulk with just one 8 hour bout of Diarrhea I understand now when Bill Gates says we should really focus on Diarrhea to save hundreds of thousands of kids from dying. Why she had w was obviously she put something in her mouth she should not have. Anything she gets she puts in her mouth. So we just try to be a bit more careful with her toys and watch what she is putting in her mouth, if you can I mean.

2011 Public Participation in Scientific Research
In April 2011, a group of 60 researchers and practitioners convened at the American Museum of Natural History to discuss factors that influence specific outcomes, as part of an ongoing conversation regarding the field public participation in scientific research (PPSR). PPSR
PPSR refers to initiatives in which the public is involved in one or more phases of scientific research – from defining questions to using results – and encompasses citizen science, participatory monitoring, community science, and a variety of other endeavors and approaches. This evolving field offers significant opportunities for biodiversity conservation by addressing the increasing demand for information and the need for action.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Weight Watchers International (NYSE:WTW) were showing off their new figure today, rising as much as 27% after a better-than-expected first-quarter earnings report.
So what: Despite falling revenue, the weight-loss specialist cut costs to deliver an adjusted per-share profit of $0.31, much better than expectations of $0.09. Sales fell 16.6% in the period to $409.4 million, but that also beat estimates of $399.2 million. As recruitment appears to be stabilizing, CEO Jim Chambers said, "We are encouraged by the progress we are making on our transformation plan, but there is still a great deal of work to do."
Now what: Total paid weeks declined 13.7%, indicating that its customer "traffic" did not fall as much as the revenue slide may indicate. Weight Watchers is facing competition from new calorie-tracking free mobile apps, among other entrants, and the company has introduced its own app to widen its appeal. As a result of the strong quarter, management raised its full-year EPS guidance to $1.45-$1.70, ahead of estimates at $1.40. While the guidance boost is promising, I'd like to see the double-digit revenue declines disappear before jumping in.

Grazed from Bat Blue Networks Announcement.
Bat Blue Networks, the innovator of Unified Cloud Security, has been awarded a patent on Network Feature Virtualization (NFV) technology that enables its Cloud/Sec offering to be the most agile and adaptive security solution available today. The patent is titled "System and Method for Providing a Single Global Borderless Perimeter Through Distributed Points of Presence," and is assigned U.S. Patent No. 9,197,601B2. The patent covers Bat Blue's unique Network Feature Virtualization (NFV) technology and was issued on November 24, 2015.
Bat Blue's patented Network Feature Virtualization (NFV) technology uniquely empowers Cloud/Sec to be both agile and adaptive, with the ability to add features and functions on-demand. These are key virtues for security given today's threats and business demand for distributed technologies.
The industry has and continues to fail at offering a sustainable, cost effective and holistic approach to security. "We don't just have a Cloud security problem, we have a distributed assets security problem," said Steve Katz, former Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Citigroup, JPMorgan and Merrill Lynch, at a recent Bat Blue event.
The NFV patent highlights just some of Bat Blue's innovative technology at work to address a substantive industry challenge. Today, a number of one-off products have to be pieced together across many different silos of security such as Clouds, SaaS, Mobile, Branch and Data Centers. Security teams continuously juggle product acquisitions, implementations, operationalization and ongoing care and feeding of many products and policies across the multiple security silos. This is expensive, resource intensive, ineffective and ultimately unsustainable.
The Bat Blue approach offers organizations a complete security infrastructure as an in-the-Cloud utility with a single security policy that protects all distributed assets, including Clouds, SaaS, Mobile, Branches, Data Centers and even Internet of Things (IoT) Assets.
"This is an extremely powerful patent that represents the future of how security is delivered," said Dr. Hossein Eslambolchi, former CIO and CTO for AT&T and himself the holder of over 1,100 patents. "I continue to be impressed by the Bat Blue team and their thoughtful approach to security," said Eslambochi.
"We are very excited about the awarded NFV patent. It's very important for the Unified Cloud Security model of moving the entire security stack to the Cloud," said Babak Pasdar, Bat Blue's Founder, CEO and the patent's author. "Agility and adaptiveness are key to an ever-changing threat landscape and NFV is key to agile and adaptive security."
"So far the industry has aimed for defense-in-depth but managed to create complexity-in-depth. And complexity is the enemy of security. Take end-point security for example, it's fools gold. It doesn't take sustainability into consideration at all. End-point security for a projected 50 billion IoT assets that range from an LG Dishwasher, a Tesla car, to an Android device is just not reasonable or feasible. Our Unified Cloud Security makes security simple, manageable and sustainable," Pasdar added.

With ISIS inspiring attacks all over the world, law enforcement is on high alert to prevent wanna-be terrorists from carrying out their plans for jihad and destruction.
Even here in the states, there are radical Muslims seeking the means to murder innocents.
One such radical planned to destroy a synagogue in the Miami, Florida area. Luckily the FBI got to him first.
Via the Miami Herald:
James G. Medina, 40, was arrested by FBI agents on a charge of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction against the Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center, 20400 NE 30th Ave., during services on Friday.
The judge set his bond hearing for Thursday and his arraignment for May 16. He also appointed the Federal Public Defender's Office to represent him.
Federal prosecutors Marc Anton and Karen Gilbert told the judge that Medina should be detained before trial, arguing he is a danger to the community and a risk of flight. If convicted, Medina, who is being held at the Federal Detention Center, faces up to life in prison.
Anton summarized the FBI case for the judge, saying that in March Medina reached out to a FBI confidential source because he was interested in buying a bomb. The prosecutor said that Medina wanted to obtain the bomb and place it under a car or throw it over the wall of the synagogue.
This man probably wasn't a real threat as the FBI got to him early, but I hope this sends a clear message to anyone wishing to destroy a peaceful house of worship.
We have to remain serious and vigilant in our fight against Radical Islam.
Obama and the Left want us to believe the threat isn't real. But we know the truth!
We have to make our country safe!
Are we doing enough to combat radical Islam? Share your thoughts!

How to Lighten Your Hair in the Sun
Salon and at-home dye treatments lighten your hair in a hurry, but the results may not look as natural as you'd like. Dye also contains harsh chemicals that can damage your hair. If you prefer a more gentle, subtle effect, use lemon juice and the power of the sun to lighten your tresses. This lightening trick works best if you already have blond or light-colored hair.
Video of the Day
Step 1
Cut a large lemon into slices, then squeeze 1/2 cup of the juice into a bowl.
Step 2
Combine the lemon juice with 2 cups of water. Mix well.
Step 3
Fill a spray bottle with some of the lemon-water mixture.
Step 4
Mist your hair with the lemon water, but do not spray it directly on your scalp. For total coverage, spray your hair all over. To do highlights, only spray a few sections of hair.
Step 5
Use a comb or brush to work the lemon juice through your hair.
Step 6
Sit outside in the sun until your hair is as light as you'd like.

UIC combined to score 28 runs on 30 hits on Friday afternoon as the Flames swept a doubleheader from Valparaiso 14-12 and 14-4 at Emory G. Bauer Field in Horizon League action.
The first game turned into a slugfest during the middle innings, as the two sided combined for 23 runs from the third through sixth frames.
UIC jumped in front in the second scoring a pair of unearned runs aided by an error and two hit batsmen. An RBI single by Tony Altavilla, one of four hits and three runs batted in for the game for him, in the third increased the visitors lead to 3-0.
Valpo answered with two in the third and two more in the fourth, only to see UIC score four in the top of the fifth. A bases loaded walk to Jason Brunelli (Greenfield, Wis./Greenfield H.S.) in the bottom of the fifth started a four-run inning for the Crusaders. Ryan O'Gara (Buffalo Grove, Ill./Buffalo Grove H.S.) and Brett Bivens (Battle Creek, Mich./Lakeview H.S.) each drove home runs with singles to give Valpo an 8-7 advantage.
UIC scored six times in the sixth, including back-to-back homers by Kevin Coddington and Altavilla. The Crusaders again fought back. Zach Rodeghero (New Lenox, Ill./Providence Catholic H.S.) started the bottom of the inning with a one-out double and scored on a hit by Brunelli. Mark Schoeck (Bellefontaine, Ohio/Bellefontaine H.S.) followed with a run-scoring single and O'Gara added a sacrifice fly. A Bivens double cut the deficit to one, 13-12.
Neither team found the scoreboard in the seventh or eighth, but a sacrifice fly in the ninth gave UIC an insurance run. Valpo brought the tying run to the plate in the bottom of the ninth, but could not do any damage.
Chris Kovacevich (1-3) earned the victory for UIC while Ada Worthington picked up his fourth save after allowing just one hit in the final 3.1 innings of work. Andy Parker (Ottawa Hills, Ohio/Ottawa Hills H.S.) suffered the loss (0-1) for the Crusaders.
O'Gara and Rodeghero both had three hits to pace Valpo's 14-hit attack while Jake Carr had three hits for UIC in addition to Altavilla's four-hit performance.
Game two saw UIC (22-13, 11-3 Horizon League) score eight times in the second and Valpo could not recover. Back-to-back homers by Carr and Brett Schaefer were the big blows in the inning. After the Flames added another run in the third, Valpo got on the scoreboard with a RBI groundout by Rodeghero. Justin Frane (Fort Wayne, Ind./Carroll H.S.) homered in the fourth for the Brown and Gold before UIC tacked on two more runs in the fifth on a Rafael Garcia homer.
Three runs in the sixth put the Flames in front 14-2 and the Crusaders added single runs in the sixth and seventh on a single by Frane and a single by Josh Wallace (Bellefontaine, Ohio/Bellefontaine H.S.).
Don Phillis (4-1) went seven innings striking out eight to get the win for the Flames while Jon Gulbransen (Appleton, Wis./Fox Valley Lutheran H.S.) suffered the loss for the Crusaders.
John Giusti (Coventry, R.I./Coventry H.S.) went 4-for-5 for Valpo in the night cap to lead the 12-hit attack while Schaefer was 4-for-4 to lead the Flames as they had 14 hits.
"This was not a good day to be a pitcher," head coach Tracy Woodson said, talking about the wind blowing out. "Our pitchers need to learn to keep the ball down. They took advantage of the wind better than we did. The second game we just got behind early and couldn't play catch up."
Valparaiso (10-23, 3-7) will host Wright State in another Horizon League twinbill on Saturday. First pitch at Emory G. Bauer Field is set for noon.

Hey guys This is good, but there are a few issues / improvements that can be had with email. The point of a CRM in a sales team is to ensure that sales staff and share and pick up where others have left off if they are away, or have left the business. The way email works now does suck a bit because to see the full conversation with a contact you need to: 1. Get each sales person to ensure they allow email sharing so that everyone can see each others email to a contact (which, to be honest, should be the default - it's dangerous to hide communication by default in a sales environment.) 2. Maintain the sales person's IMAP account connected to AgileCRM and therefore their AgileCRM account... even if they have left our business (good for your pocket, but not good if you have staff turnover)! As it stands now, if a sales person leaves the company and their Agile account is removed, we loose all email and history for that person, which is crazy. If the IMAP connection is removed all of the email comms is lost and disconnected also - this is a major problem. 3. If you use Agile to send email, it is sent and recorded in AgileCRM under Agile, but the end recipient cannot reply to it, or if they do, it goes to the user's IMAP account... and so the circle starts again. In summary, the email management has potential, but it is clunky a the moment; there is no easy way to see a holistic view of communication to a contact. I hate to say it, but Base and Pipedrive do it pretty well; you guys need dropbox email addresses and to store the email. Lastly, having to buy email credits for mail campaigns is fine, but having to buy them just to send emails out through AgileCRM to a single contact so it can be tracked is pretty poor. Email to a contact in your CRM is a pretty fundamental function, and it leaves a bad taste in our mouth when we need to pay just to send an email to a contact.Reply
Jayabout 3 years ago
Owen, so are you saying if a contact emails using their Gmail, its is saved by ACRM, but when a customer replies back to that employee (it doesnt show in ACRM) So ACRM would only be tracking emails out and not in? How does Base and Pipe Drive work the same as you described? I mean wouldn't it make sense to have email sent and received coming into ACRM as long as the email is connected?Reply
Frank Liggettabout 3 years ago
I totally agree with Owen. The current email processes have been a source of frustration for me as well. Rather than true integration that benefits the organization the current email system is used capture revenues and promote Agile (Sent using Agile or powered by Agile stamps) at the customers expense even though they have a paid account like Starter or Regular and to push upgrades to the Pro version. This scheme causes competing priorities of user benefits over profit.Reply

HAY LONIE, OF PRESTON, CAMPBELLFIELD, TULLAMARINE, BULLA AND KILMORE, VIC., AUST. (and Peter Young.)
I will never forget the first time I saw Hay Lonie's name in a Broadmeadows Shire ratebook. I was having trouble deciphering some of the words because of terrible handwriting, sometimes taking five minutes to establish what a particular letter might be. "What sort of name is Hay?" I thought. It was not until nearly a year later, when I found his name in the Bulla shire ratebook re the assessment for Lochton, that I was reassured that he indeed had the same name as the area's principal crop.
I have included details (obituary, location etc. re Pasture Hill, Camp Hill and Lochton) about Hay in my journal 1888 GEOGRAPHY WITH THE MELBOURNE HUNT and having found the location of his Kilmore property, I decided that a separate journal might allow me to include that and other information I might discover.
Mr' Norman Bowers' Valleyfield estate was one of the very earliest settled farms in Kilmore district. It
is about four miles north-west of the town, with extensive frontages to Pyalong road, which runs through
the property. Some eighty years ago the original place was farmed, and later the home, which was right on
the roadway, was used as a hotel Harvest Home, the proprietor being Mr A. Downs. For a period the spot was a favorite locale for Kilmore picnics, which were numerous about 65 years ago. The property was added to considerably, and subsequently became an extensive dairy farm, conducted by the late Mr Hay Lonie.
About 250 cows were milked on the premises morning and evening, all by hand, and Mr Lonie himself despatched a waggon load of milk by the first train,' at 7 a.m., from Kilmore East, and again in the evening, six days a
week for Melbourne, and also a consignment on Sunday evenings, each trip meaning six miles from and to his farm. After Mr Lonie's death,the Valleyfield property changed hands, and Mr S. Bowers became owner.
(Present & Past WOOL v. MILK Kilmore Free Press (Kilmore, Vic. : 1870 - 1954) Thursday 24 October 1935 p 4. )
Golden Vein.
On Wednesday Messrs. Osborn and Hudson conducted a clearing out sale on account of Mr. J. H. McIvor at the Golden Vein estate in Moranding, when a large number of sheep, cattle, horses, plant, hay,furniture, and sundries came under the hammer to a big attendance of buyers and onlookers. A good clearance was effected at satisfactory prices.
In the late sixties and early seventies the Golden Vein property of 869 acres was owned by Mr.Laurence Bourke, M.L.A., and about 1872 the holding became the property of Mr. Hay Lonie, of Tullarmarine (sic), and from whom it was rented by Mr James McLeod at 5/- per acre. Fifty-seven cows were milked twice daily, giving an average of two and a half gallons, one gallon of milk making one pound of cheese.
Mr. McLeod introduced the Cheddar system into the district. (Details.....).
During Mr.Bourke's ownership, the Golden Vein was in a slovenly and untidy condition, owing to the fact that Mr.Bourke had to be absent a good deal on Parliamentary business, and the men he employed were careless and
slovenly, and the fences broken down and left there, because the men would not repair them. On the expiry of Mr. McLeod's lease, .Mr.Lonie went on to the farm and worked it for many years; principally in dairying. After Mr. Lonie's death the property was purchased by Mr.R. Fennelly,and leased to Mr.I W. Mclvor, who carried on a high class Ayrshire stud herd for some years. (etc.)
( Golden Vein.Kilmore Free Press (Kilmore, Vic. : 1870 - 1954) Thursday 16 January 1936 p 2 Article.)
This must be the article mentioned in his obituary (which debunked rumours that Hay had committed suicide.)
Mr Hay Lonie, well known in this district, has been missing since Wednesday, 14th instant. On the evening of that date he left Mr Grace's, South Melbourne, and since that time nothing has been heard of his movements. Much sympathy is felt for Mrs Lonie and family, whose state of anxiety can well be imagined. [Since writing above we learn with much regret that the remains were found in Melbourne yesterday, but up to the present we
have not been able to find further particulars than those conveyed in the following from the Herald of
yesterday :-"About 7 o'clock this morning a boy named William Bell, went to Constable T. Martin, who was on duty on Prince's Bridge, and informed him that the body of a man was floating in the River Yarra a short distance east of the bridge. Martin went to the spot indicated, recovered the body, and conveyed it to the City Morgue. The death has been reported to Dr Youl, and an inquest will be held, probably to-morrow." The remains
will be interred in the Kilmore Cemetery this (Thursday) evening.]
(P.3, Kilmore Free Press, 22-12-1892.)
The reason for this search will be explained later.
1884.October 23- The sudden death of Miss Barbara, oldest daughter of Mr Hay Lonie,and a most amiable girl, took place on 19th instant aged 19 years.
(Early Kilmore. PART LXI.
Kilmore Free Press (Kilmore, Vic. : 1870 - 1954) Thursday 10 June 1915 Edition: MORNING. p 1 Article.)
Not much else turned up except that Hay seems to have been awarded a government contact for the supply of milk while he was milking all those cows on Pasture Hill at Campbellfield.
(THE GAZETTE, P.6,Argus,8-12-1866.)
Let's try PETER YOUNG,KILMORE.
Oh dear,let's try JOHN THOMAS SMITH AND HIS ELECTORS on google.
No wonder, the above search did not produce clear results; I had the right area but the wrong town!
A website headed FREDERICK XAVIER TO ARTHUR ZOUCH has the following information.
The Melbourne Times of 23-4-1842 recorded that Peter Young had been granted a publican's licence for the "Bushman" in Sydney Road.The Port Phillip of 21-4-1843 shows that the hotel, once again described as being on Sydney Road was now called the Sugar Loaf Inn. The same paper, on 27-4-1844,stated that Peter had been granted his licence but the hotel was again called the Bushman.
(An alphabetical listing of squatters and their runs, from correspondence with the Governor, which is a different website, lists Peter Young of the Sugar Loaf Run.) Given Peter's purchase of land in Seymour at the first sales, his conducting the first sales in the township and the fact that Sugarloaf Creek intersects the Hume Highway in Seymour, it is reasonable to assume that the hotel was at Seymour and not in modern-day Carlton, Brunswick (or Plenty, Pascoeville near the Young Queen Inn, or Tullamarine near the Lady of the Lake- routes more likely to be called Sydney Road in the 1840's.)
Rev. Peter Gunn, who became the minister at Campbellfield's historic Scots Church (Melway 7 H6), had visited the Golburn (River?) area and Peter was among a large number who signed a letter of encouragement and contributed 50 pounds to support his ministry; another signatory was from Sunday Creek, which joins Sugarloaf Creek.(Port Phillip Herald 1-10-1844.)
Peter Young and Elizabeth christened John William in 1843.
Peter Young purchased allotments at the first sale of blocks at Seymour. (Melbourne Weekly Courier 23-3-1844.)
Peter Young was one of 469 voters who qualified by freehold in Seymour in the list of electors in the District of Bourke (Melbourne Courier 8-8-1845.)Peter Young was listed in the (1847?) Port Phillip directory as a settler, Seymour, Sydney Rd.
The website also lists newspaper reports showing that Peter Young was given depasturing licences in July 1843 and October 1844 in the Westernport District.Ah hah, I thought, perhaps Peter had been on Clyde Farm, Westernport before he went to Bulla. Then I remembered my search for a grant (or licence) that Captain Adams of Rosebud was supposed to have been given in about 1841. All such matters were dealt with in Sydney and the Public Records office gave me an index of correspondence. As Peninsula pioneers were referred to as late as 1888 in "Victoria and Its Metropolis" as being in the Westernport District, I concentrated on those entries.
Imagine my surprise to find Barker's Mt Alexander Run (near Castlemaine) described as being in the Westernport District! In view of what has been mentioned before, Peter Young's depasturing licences were almost certainly near Seymour.
Still none the wiser,about when Peter left Nairn, I returned to Trove and tried "Nairn, Bulla, Young, 1850-1867".
Argus 18-4-1853 page 12. Peter was offering Nairn for sale by private contract. He had probably only been there for about five years but how much he had accomplished! The advertisement describes the property in great detail, including the waterfall.For the sale of his furniture, library, stock, vehicles and so on, Peter employed prominent auctioneer, Dalmahoy Campbell (much discussed by Harry Peck in his "Memoirs of a Stockman.) (See Argus 20-5-1853 page 9.)
Argus 4-6-1853 page 8, column 1. Peter offered an incredible variety of grape vine cuttings for sale.
What does Peter Young have to do with the price of fish?
I have a theory that Peter Young influenced Hay Lonie's move to the Kilmore area and may have even been the land agent who handled the sale of Bourke's "Golden Vein" to Hay. Young would have been familiar with the Kilmore area, from very early days as he would pass through it on the way from Sunday Creek to Melbourne. As we all do,he'd return nostagically to his former haunt and perhaps visit relatives at Kilmore; James Young of Tabilk might have been a son (both having agricultural links with Tasmania.) With the eye of an expert agriculturalist and land agent,Peter may have noted the decrepit state of the "Golden Vein" and its potential as a dairy farm, and told Hay while making a nostalgic visit to Nairn at Bulla.
Hay Lonie's "Lochton" was 5a, Bulla, south of "Airey's" (through which Wildwood Rd zig-zags its way almost down to Deep Creek from the St John's Rd junction and which became part of David Patullo's "Craigbank estate)and Hay would have passed Lochton to reach Nairn, which he may have been leasing to McIntosh at the time, (7b-Melway 384 D-E11 and south half E10, and section 8-between St Johns and Oaklands Rds, 384 F-J, part 9-12.)
Born in Cupar, Fife, Scotland on 22 Nov 1842 to Andrew Lonie and Mary Fife. Hay married Jane McGregor and had 4 children. He passed away on 1892 in Melbourne East.

As the text in the following item has been corrected, obviously by a family historian, I do not wish to interfere with sales of the book that must be underway. Hay put 313 acres at Kilmore into the name of Henry's wife, Jane (Hay's sister-in-law),to avoid paying tax. The McGregors are mentioned.
(Kilmore Free Press (Kilmore, Vic. : 1870 - 1954) Thursday 11 October 1883 Edition: MORNING. p 3 Article)
Henry Lonie's wife was Jemima (nee Hall.) Hay had put the 313 acres into the name of his own wife,Jane (nee McGregor.) Henry obviously leased his farm at Kilmore to his cheese-making in-laws until he moved north.The text has not been corrected so I will post the following.
Sir,-In your issue of the 11th inst. you gave a report in re Land Tax case wherein there appears to be a slight error in having used the name of "Henry" instead of "Hay." It should have been "Jane Lonie wife of Hay Lonie" not of "Henry Lonie," and the mistake is attributable to a clerical error for which you are not accountable.-.You will greatly oblige Mr Hay Lonie and myself by kindly giving this publication.

Hay Lonie is renting land at Campbellfield with Brunton (possibly the flour miller and later owner of Roxburgh Park.) Not long after,he buys Camp Hill (16 B2) and Lochton (177 C4) to conduct his dairying.
Hay might have had outlets for his milk in Fitzroy and Hotham (North Melbourne.)

That well known dairy and agricultural farm, adjoining Campbellfield, being Allotment B of Section 15 parish of Will Will Rook, containing 305.5 acres lately occupied by H Lonie, Esq.
(P.2, Argus, 16-3-1868.)
*The original Sydney Rd passed the Young Queen Inn at Melway 16 H9,near Bass St,turning left at 6 G9, veering right onto Johnstone (sic) St at 6 C8 (to avoid the creek) and left into Raleigh St, turning right again up the Ardlie St hill and then it was follow your nose (Mickleham Rd)to Wallan. The road is still called Old Sydney Rd north of Donnybrook Rd. This roundabout and very hilly route was necessary because of the Sydney road track being extremely boggy in wet weather. Later Pascoe Vale Road was made to the line of Somerton Rd, which was made toward Sydney Rd between Thorngrove and Cameron's Stony Fields/Roxburgh Park,with travellers possibly veering north east through the middle of the township where the Cliffords and Kernans were pioneers (Cliffords Rd.) Another route was along High St or Plenty Rd which also joined the Sydney road (and the road to the McIvor Diggings) near Wallan. When the direct route was made, the Young Queen and Broadmeadows Township went into limbo and a new Young Queen was built at Coburg.(Melway touring map 510 A10.)
SOURCES: BROADMEADOWS:A FORGOTTEN HISTORY,A.Lemon; BETWEEN TWO CREEKS (Coburg),R.Broome.
**James Hearn owned much land at Mt Martha, as did Robert Byrne.
Messrs. Campbell and Sons, Kirk's Bazaar, report having sold, on account of Messrs. W. C. Hearn andThomas Wragge, trustees in the estate of the late James Hearn, their farm, situate at Somerton, and known as the Thorngrove Farm, and containing 338 acres. Mr. John Hearn was the purchaser, at a satisfactory price.
(P.5,Argus, 18-2-1892.)
I thought I knew the location of the farm on which Hay Lonie had been dairying prior to the 1868 advertisement. Big Clarke died at Roseneath in Woodland St, the residence of James Hearn, whom Lenore Frost said (in her book about Essendon's historic houses), was his son-in-law. Having done extensive research about the farms on Somerton Rd, I presumed Hay had been on Thorngrove (Melway 179 G-J9-11) but that was 4J of the parish of Yuroke and consisted of 338 acres.
The Will Will Rook map is also available online and it shows the 305 acres 2 roods 22 perches, 15B, Will Will Rook, described in the 1868 advertisement. Like Thorngrove,it had been granted to W.J.T. (Big) Clarke.
Crown allotment 15B, Will Will Rook, is indicated by Melway - I apologise for the delay. Before I could transpose this on my Melway, I had to plot the Yuroke/Will Will Rook boundary on maps 178,179, 6 and 7. As there is no road along the boundary,I had to start at Swain St (198 H12) and continue east through Dench's Lane
178 J-K12)so that my line met Merri Creek at exactly the same place as shown on the parish map,which it did. The parish boundary meets Merri Creek at the point where the Hume Freeway crosses the creek,which is also the north west corner of the Lalor Golf Course. (If you manage to transpose parish and crown allotment boundaries properly, there are always indications that you are right.)
The parish boundary is also the northern boundary of 15B, Will Will Rook. The corner of Berringa Court (6 J1) is at the north east corner and the boundary passes through the Kyabram St/Flynn Crescent corner ending at the top of 7 C2, 40 metres west of the Upfield railway line.
The southern boundary of 15B is Barry Rd,named after the pioneering family that lived on "Glenbarry".
The Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957) Thursday 24 April 1856 p 4 Family Notices
Campbellfield, Mr. William Barry, aged fifty-six years etc.
Garrett Barry married an Angel!
The western boundary of the 305.3875 acres is the original course of Pascoe Vale Rd,just west of the railway and the Barry Rd railway bridge. The eastern boundary is indicated by the line of King St (as it crosses Barry Rd) continued to meet (not quite) the Upfield line; if continued it would meet the western boundary of the Ford land just over the railway line (one of those welcome confirmations of accuracy I was talking about.)

According to the CDC, the threat of cyclospora has receded quite a bit. The outbreak seemed to been confined to summer months, and not as many new cases have been reported. Still, there is a need to keep an eye out and be proactive. This is why the CDC always needs to be robustly funded.
No, we as a society should not be worried about the cyclospora outbreak as with every other outbreak in the modern world, it will certainly be contained. Every major outbreak in the modern world has been contained, from bird flu to the so-called super flu, so I see no reason this one will be any different.

It's no longer an out-of-the-box idea to make use of food and other organic items as candleholders. For quite some time now, people have been using nutshells, orange rinds, twigs and other organic items as holders for candles. But this one is something that you've never seen yet. This idea from the Gardening Cook makes use of colorful Indian corns.
To make this, you have to start with the candle. Melt candle wax in a pot. Pour it onto a mold. Insert the wick and wait for the wax to harden. Then remove the formed candle carefully from the mold. Surround it with Indian corns and tie a string around to hold it together.

Aahatein kaisi yeh aahatein
Sunta hoon aaj kal, aye dil bataa
Dastake dete hai dastake
Kyun ajnabi se pal, aye dil bataa
Kuch toh hai jo neend aaye kam
Kuch toh hai jo aankhein hai num
Kuch toh hai jo tu kehde toh
Haste haste mar jaaye hum
Mujhse zyada mere jaisa
Koi hai toh hai tu
Phir na jaane dil mera kyun
Tujhko na de saku
Kuch toh hai jo dil ghabraye
Kuch toh hai jo saans na aaye
Kuch toh hai jo hum hotho se
Kehte kehte keh na paaye
Jo hamare darmiyaan hai
Isko hum kya kahe,
Ishq kya hai ik lehar hai
Aao ismein bahe
Kuch toh hai jo hum hai khoye
Kuch toh hai jo tum na soye
Kuch toh hai jo hum dono yu
Haste haste itna roye…

Alterations and improvements
The council encourages tenants to have improvements done to their homes that they pay for themselves, but they must get written permission before any work starts by completing our tenant alteration online form. Tenants also need to find their own qualified trades people.
Please include:
- plans of the proposed work
- details of any professional trades people you plan to use
- as much information as possible about what you want to do
This is the case both for council tenants and leaseholders.
If you wish to install CCTV on your council home, please see the guidance below.
What changes do I need permission for?
You do need permission to:
- install hard floor finishes such as laminate flooring, hardwood overlay or ceramic tiles
- have bare floorboards in any room in your home.
We will not refuse permission unreasonably, but we will probably only grant permission if you live in a house or ground floor flat, as hard flooring can cause a noise nuisance to your neighbours.
You do not need permission to:
- decorate the inside of your home
- carry out minor improvements such as tiling*.
*However, you must not fit polystyrene (or similar material) ceiling tiles or coving as they are a fire risk. If you do, you will need to pay for the cost of their removal.
We will not normally refuse permission for work unless it is likely to:
- affect the safety of the building,
- cause a future maintenance problem
- cause a nuisance to your neighbours.
Sometimes, we may attach conditions to the permission, such as insisting that the work is carried out by a competent contractor and to a satisfactory standard.
If you move, you will be expected to return the home to its original condition or to leave any alterations in place. If we have to do any work to put things right, you may be charged for this - please see our recharges page for further details. Please check with the Housing Customer Services team before you move out.
What about aerials, sheds & other structures?
Council tenants must get our written permission before erecting sheds, garages, greenhouses or extra fencing. We do not allow very large structures or sheds which cut out neighbours' light or views, and you are not allowed to put sheds or garages against a boundary fence.
Tenants must also get our written permission before putting up external aerials. We will insist that the aerial is properly fixed and does not interfere with other residents' TV and radio reception. There are also restrictions on the siting of CB aerials and satellite dishes.
What happens once I have requested permission for an alteration?
A member of the housing team or a surveyor may visit your home and we will write to you telling you whether you have permission and whether there are any conditions attached. In some cases you may also need to obtain planning permission or the consent of building control before going ahead with the work. We will advise you if this is needed and give you details of who to contact.
Usually, the council's area surveyor will inspect the work you have carried out to check that it has been done to a satisfactory standard.
If permission is refused and you feel the decision is unreasonable, you can make a complaint via our Customer Feedback team. You can contact them:
- online using the comments, compliments and complaints form
- by e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com
- by phoning 01273 291229
- by using the complaints, comments & compliments form supplied at council offices
- or by writing to us at: Brighton & Hove City Council, Customer Feedback, Hove Town Hall, Norton Road, Hove, BN3 3BQ.
CCTV requests
If you wish to install CCTV on your council home, you need to seek our permission first. Please download and print the application form. Then return the completed form to email@example.com or post to Housing Customer Services, Housing Centre, Unit 1, Fairway Trading Estate, Eastergate Road, Brighton, BN2 4QL. If you would like us to post you a copy, please call us on 01273 293030.

I've written another Amazon Vine review of a book that may be of interest to readers of this blog. Embassytown, the new novel by China Miéville, is science fiction, but of a dark, horror-tinged variety that I think will appeal to devotees of the strange and supernatural. My review is here.
I hope to finish Quentin S. Crisp's Morbid Tales tonight and review it here tomorrow, but I originally planned to finish it on the 29th and review it on the 30th, so no promises.

U.S. Postal Service:
Clear Communication with Employees Needed before Reopening the Brentwood Facility
GAO-04-205T: Published: Oct 23, 2003. Publicly Released: Oct 23, 2003.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4232
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
On October 21, 2001, the U.S. Postal Service closed its Brentwood mail processing facility after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that an employee there had contracted inhalation anthrax, an often-fatal form of the disease. On October 21 and 22, two other Brentwood employees died of inhalation anthrax. The contamination was linked to a letter that passed through the facility on or about October 12, before being opened in the office of Senator Daschle in the Hart Senate Office Building on October 15. The Hart Building was closed the next day. The Brentwood facility has since been decontaminated and will soon reopen. This testimony, which is based on ongoing work, provides GAO's preliminary observations on the decisions made in closing the facility and problems experienced in communicating with employees, as well as lessons learned from the experience.
The Postal Service's decision to wait to close the Brentwood facility and refer employees for medical treatment until CDC confirmed that a postal employee had contracted inhalation anthrax was consistent with the advice the Postal Service received from public health advisers and the information about health risk available at the time. However, because circumstances differed at Brentwood and the Hart Building--an observed spill at the Hart Building and no observable incident at Brentwood--the Postal Service's response differed from the response at Capitol Hill, leading some Brentwood employees to question whether the Postal Service was taking adequate steps to protect their health. The Postal Service communicated information to its Brentwood employees during the anthrax incident, but some of the health risk information changed over time, exacerbating employees' concerns about the measures being taken to protect them. Notably, employees later learned that their risk of contracting the disease was greater than originally stated. Other factors, including difficulties in communicating the uncertainty associated with health recommendations and employees' distrust of postal managers, also challenged efforts to communicate effectively. Recently, the Postal Service informed employees that Brentwood, which has been tested and certified as safe for occupancy, is "100 percent free of anthrax contamination." However, in discussions with GAO, the Service agreed to revise future communications to acknowledge that although any remaining risk at the facility is likely to be low, complete freedom from risk cannot be guaranteed. The Postal Service and others have learned since the 2001 anthrax incidents that (1) the risk of contracting anthrax through the mail is greater than was previously believed and more caution is needed to respond to that greater risk and (2) clear, accurate communication is critical to managing the response to an incident and its aftermath. The Postal Service is revising its guidance to respond more quickly and to communicate more effectively to employees and the public in the event of a future incident.

Here's what the distributor says about their film: "'Men, Women and Children' follows the story of a group of high school teenagers and their parents as they attempt to navigate the many ways the Internet has changed their relationships, their communication, their self-image, and their love lives. The film attempts to stare down social issues such as video game culture, anorexia, infidelity, fame hunting, and the proliferation of illicit material on the Internet. As each character and each relationship is tested, we are shown the variety of roads people choose—some tragic, some hopeful—as it becomes clear that no one is immune to this enormous social change that has come through our phones, our tablets, and our computers."
The movie is based on a novel (2011) by Chad Kultgen described as follows:
"Chad Kultgen, cult hero and author of the buzz-generating illicit classics The Average American Male and The Lie, cuts to the quick of the American psyche like no other author writing today. In Men, Women and Children he explores the sexual pressures at work on a handful of troubled, conflicted junior-high students and their equally dysfunctional parents. From porn-surfing fathers to World of Warcraft-obsessed sons, from competitive cheerleaders to their dissatisfied, misguided mothers, Kultgen clicks open the emotionally treacherous culture in which we live‒in his most ambitious and surprising book yet."

Woooaaaa, che stai facendo?! Stai per rompere Revit! Come l' hai fatto?RispondiElimina
Nothign special: I discovered link files can be added to groups, if you create a group with a link file in an in place family an save it (I think I saw this trick on your blog a while ago) then you'll have it :)RispondiElimina
Ahhh I see, a link in a group as a Trojan horse...nice! Might be useful to give a component family some project context perhaps?RispondiEliminaRisposte
that's what I thought too. Once you load the family into a project the RVT content tend to disappear anyway :) need to find out which category stays visible and can be used to retrieve "host" geometry.Elimina
