The PCT through hiking season starts in a few months. Planning ahead, I've been trying to come up with a bypass for the Lake Fire Closure. There aren't a lot of great options out there, but I have a couple of ideas, ideas I'd love to get your input on. Access issues could render one or both of my ideas dead in the water.
Here's a map of what I've come up with so far. This has not been checked in any way. This is very preliminary stuff for discussion purposes only.

Fox Foundation Contact: Mary Leach, 617-573-4170 BOSTON (April 24, 2013) – Neurodegenerative and central nervous system (CNS) diseases represent a major public health issue affecting at least 20 million children and adults in the United States alone. Multiple drugs exist to treat and potentially cure these debilitating diseases, but 98 percent of all potential pharmaceutical agents are prevented from reaching the CNS directly due to the blood-brain barrier. Using mucosa, or the lining of the nose, researchers in the department of Otology and Laryngology at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear/Harvard Medical School and the Biomedical Engineering Department of Boston University have demonstrated what may be the first known method to permanently bypass the blood-brain barrier, thus opening the door to new treatment options for those with neurodegenerative and CNS disease. Their study is published on PLOS ONE. Many attempts have been made to deliver drugs across the blood-brain barrier using methods such as osmotic disruption and implantation of catheters into the brain; however these methods are temporary and prone to infection and dislodgement. "As an endoscopic skull base surgeon, I and many other researchers have helped to develop methods to reconstruct large defects between the nose and brain using the patient's own mucosa or nasal lining," said Benjamin S. Bleier, M.D., Otolaryngologist at Mass. Eye and Ear and HMS Assistant Professor (pictured above). Study co-author Xue Han, Ph.D., an assistant professor of Biomedical Engineering at Boston University, said, "The development of this model enables us to perform critical preclinical testing of novel therapies for neurological and psychiatric diseases." Inspired by recent advances in human endoscopic transnasal skull based surgical techniques, the investigators went to work to develop an animal model of this technique and use it to evaluate transmucosal permeability for the purpose of direct drug delivery to the brain. In this study using a mouse model, researchers describe a novel method of creating a semi-permeable window in the blood-brain barrier using purely autologous tissues to allow for higher molecular weight drug delivery to the CNS. They demonstrated for the first time that these membranes are capable of delivering molecules to the brain which are up to 1,000-times larger than those excluded by the blood-brain barrier. "Since this is a proven surgical technique which is known to be safe and well tolerated, this data suggests that these membranes may represent the first known method to permanently bypass the blood-brain barrier using the patient's own tissue," Dr. Bleier said. "This method may open the door for the development of a variety of new therapies for neurodegenerative and CNS disease. Future studies will be directed towards developing clinical trials to test this method in patients who have already undergone these endoscopic surgeries." The study was supported by a grant from the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research and represents a collaborative effort between Mass. Eye and Ear and Dr. Xue Han of the Biomedical Engineering Department at Boston University. Other authors include Richie E. Kohman, Rachel E. Feldman and Shrestha Ramanlal.

I'm still catching up on my blog reading after Jamboree. I loved your two posts on the tornado, and I'm going to look for this memorial the next time I'm at Mom's house. We pass right by Quinsig on the way to her house, and I've never seen this monument. I'm glad you posted it, and I'll be bringing Mom to see it soon.
Heather - Thank you for your comment. FYI, you can see the memorial from the road so you shouldn't have any trouble finding it when you and your mom visit.

LAS VEGAS – The trick now is to not get lost in the shuffle, within his own team and even within his own family.
Tyler Zeller started 55 games last season as a rookie, ordinarily a good start to a long career, except that now the Cavaliers have Anderson Varejao likely to return from injury and Andrew Bynum arriving as a free agent trying to return from injury. The center competition will be tougher.
But within the Zeller family, the NBA depth chart just got a lot deeper. There was already Tyler and Luke, and now Cody is joining the league as the No. 4 pick in the Draft counted on to be an important part of the Charlotte future.
Tyler continues to do his part to remain prominent on both fronts. Monday, he had 15 points and 12 rebounds in Cleveland's 66-62 loss to the Pelicans at Cox Pavilion.
Non-rookie of the day: Aron Baynes, Spurs. Seldom used last season as a reserve center, Baynes took advantage of the summer-league opportunity by getting 19 points and 15 rebounds to lead San Antonio to a 96-87 win over the Hawks.
Other notables: Jeffery Taylor, always more than just the other small forward Charlotte picked in the 2012 draft, after lottery choice Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, had 20 points and four steals in the 84-71 victory over the Knicks. Also, Mike Scott scored 27 points and added seven rebounds for the Hawks against the Spurs. Markieff Morris scored 22 points and twin Marcus Morris hit the game-winning jumper at the buzzer to lead the Suns past the Timberwolves 91-89. Andrew Goudelock, best known for his time with the Lakers, scored 31 points for the Bulls in the 93-81 victory over the Nuggets. Malcolm Thomas had 22 rebounds, along with 13 points, for Chicago.
Rookie of the day: Ray McCallum, Kings. The second-round pick trying to push his way into the point guard picture — with Greivis Vasquez and Isaiah Thomas — had 23 points and six steals as the bright spot to a 80-66 loss to the Warriors.
Other notables: Minnesota's Robbie Hummel, always a talented shooter, made six of nine attempts, including both three-pointers.
Coming up: Tuesday is the final day of preliminary play, before teams are seeded and placed in brackets for the tournament format leading to the championship game on July 22.

How to Compare Hotel Prices to get the cheapest hotel rates in Scotland
Don't you always have that nasty feeling that there is a cheaper price just round the corner? One more search and you have found it. Well we know the feeling so we have created a search engine that checks 30 websites for the best price for the night that you want to stay.
If you already know the name of the hotel you want, start here at the scottish hotel search. If you are looking for a chain hotel you might add the town as well such as Glasgow (oops done it for you here - see all four Travelodges in Glasgow)
If you don't know hotel names yet you can start here with our list of towns in Scotland where we have hotels.
- Enter Town
- Enter Dates of travel
- Explore potential hotels and play with parameters like location or view them on a map.
Or you can go directly for some of the major towns linked here:
- Cheap hotels in Aberdeen
- Cheap hotel prices in Dundee
- Cheap Edinburgh hotel prices compared
- Hotel prices in Glasgow compared
Is that all there is to it? Well yes and no! Different rates apply to different rooms and different facilities. For example a cheap rate may not include breakfast and be termed "room only" Our advice is to look a little closely at the inclusions to ensure that there are no nasty/unexpected surprises.
Key Questions are before price comparing hotels:
- is the cost refundable/cancellable? - usually not for the cheaper rates.
- does it include breakfast
- are there any notable exclusions?
- Are there any obvious penalty clauses.
Is there much difference between different websites
Simple answer: you bet! We have seen rate differences of 100% between the cheapest and the expensive for exactly the same room and terms! So there is a definite benefit in shopping around before you book.
Will I get the same rate from the hotel?
Usually not. These are negotiated rates between the hotel and the websites and are specific for them. Hotels usually don't offer the same and the reservations teams are rarely authorised to offer this deal to you. These bookings come from an inventory which is held by the website so if you see a good price and want to travel... book now, as once the website has sold these rooms it won't usually get them again.

Seabass, Black – U.S. Atlantic, Handline
Black Sea Bass are found along the U.S. East Coast from Cape Cod, Massachusetts to Cape Canaveral, Florida, and in the Gulf of Mexico. They prefer structural habitats such as shipwrecks, artificial reefs, and oyster or mussel beds. They begin life as females and become males by the time they are five years old.
There are two populations of Black Sea Bass in the U.S. Atlantic: Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic, with the dividing line at Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. Currently, both populations are healthy and fishing mortality rates are sustainable. The U.S. Atlantic Black Sea Bass fisheries are well managed.
In the Mid-Atlantic handline fishery, Black Sea Bass account for the majority of the catch, and bycatch is very low. In the South Atlantic handline fishery, some other species are caught, including vermilion snapper, red porgy, and small amounts of groupers. However, this fishery likely has a low impact on these species. Handline fisheries have little to no impact on bottom habitats.

Small slice of voters could decide DC mayoral race
WASHINGTON (AP) — In 2010, Vincent Gray received 72,648 votes in the District of Columbia's Democratic mayoral primary. That was good enough for a nearly 10-percentage point victory over incumbent Adrian Fenty, but it meant that just 22 percent of the city's registered Democrats cast ballots for Gray.
This year, with Gray weakened by scandal as he seeks re-election against seven challengers, the primary winner appears likely to receive far less support. With the primary approaching April 1, that's led to some questions about the way the nation's capital, long overwhelmingly Democratic, elects its local leaders.
Washington is one of a dwindling number of big U.S. cities that require voters to register with a party to vote in its winner-take-all primary. Those election procedures, combined with an unusually early primary, can depress voter turnout, even in what's essentially a one-party town.
FILE - In this Feb. 6, 2014, file photo, Washington, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray joins the Congressional Black Caucus on the national day of prayer to remember the poor and homeless, at the Capitol in Washington. Whether incumbent Gray or one of his challengers wins the District of Columbia¿s Democratic mayoral primary, the winner appears likely not to receive much support from voters. Gray is weakened by scandal and faces seven challengers, including four established local politicians. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite, File)
Of the 30 largest cities in the United States, 23 hold nonpartisan elections, in which all candidates compete against each other regardless of party affiliation. The traditional Democratic bastions of San Francisco and Chicago have made their elections nonpartisan in the last decade. New York City still has partisan primaries, but there's an automatic runoff if the top vote-getter receives less than 40 percent.
Many cities have seen an increase in turnout after making the change, said Bryan Weaver, an activist who recently left the Democratic Party and is running as an independent for the D.C. Council.
"We need to be forward-thinking and try to find ways that we can attract viable new candidates to elected office, and also bring out voters again," Weaver said. "If you look at the amount of voters that are showing up to vote in the primary, it's embarrassingly low."
Supporters of nonpartisan elections contend that political parties are increasingly irrelevant in the search for capable city leadership and that holding open elections encourages turnout while leveling the playing field, especially for candidates without strong party ties. But others argue that parties are important to the electoral process, that the absence of party labels on ballots can confuse voters, and that uninformed voters could end up choosing candidates by name alone.
Many observers believe the winner of the district's mayoral primary could get around 40,000 votes, or less than 40 percent of the ballots cast. That works out to support from 12 percent of the district's registered Democrats, 9 percent of its 444,000 registered voters and just 6 percent of its 646,000 residents.
"I'm thinking 38,000 to 42,000 will be the winner," said Vincent Orange, one of four councilmembers challenging Gray. "I think the winner will probably come in — in a field of eight people running — probably about 33 percent."
Orange takes no issue with the city's election procedures. He won his at-large council seat with 28 percent of the vote in a 2011 special election in which 10 percent of eligible voters cast ballots.
City Democratic Party leaders oppose a change. Nonpartisan elections or runoffs could water down the power wielded in local elections by longtime registered Democrats, many of whom are African-American. The city's black population is now 50 percent, down from 66 percent in 1990.
"If it's broken, fix it," said Councilmember Anita Bonds, who also chairs the city's Democratic State Committee. "Voting in the District of Columbia is really not broken."
Reform advocates believe winning with well under half the vote is bad for democracy.
"It just seems to me like if you're going to represent anybody, you should at least have won by the majority," said Councilmember David Grosso, an independent who has introduced bills calling for open primaries and instant-runoff voting, a system under which voters rank their candidates in order of preference to ensure that the winner has more than 50 percent support.
A switch to open primaries or nonpartisan elections is not imminent. Nonetheless, the city's 75,000 independent voters may have an opportunity this year to influence local politics. Independents are the second-largest voting bloc in the city, which has just 27,000 registered Republicans.
The city has traditionally held its primaries in September, but because this year's is in April, a non-Democratic candidate would have seven months to challenge the primary winner. Councilmember David Catania, an independent, is considering doing just that.
The city hasn't had a competitive general election since 1994, when Republican Carol Schwartz got 42 percent of the vote against Democrat Marion Barry, three years after Barry's release from prison for smoking crack cocaine.
Some independents are transplants who aren't accustomed to closed primaries. Brett Chittenden, 32, an employee of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, moved to the district three years ago from Georgia. He's an independent who has registered as a Republican in the past.
"I think I might have hosed myself here. I probably should have registered as a Democrat so I could vote in the primary," Chittenden said. He said he plans to vote in the November general election.
Catania can be expected to make a strong push for independent voters if he runs. But Chuck Thies, Gray's campaign manager, said a long general-election campaign would not be kind to Catania, who left the Republican Party in 2004 over President George W. Bush's opposition to gay marriage.
"He's got seven months to continually respond to concerns about his Republican history, his Republican background," Thies said. "Angry Republicans don't play well in places where Barack Obama won 90 percent of the vote."
Gray, however, has his own troubles. Four people who worked on his 2010 campaign, including three close friends, have pleaded guilty to felonies involving illicit funds and other dirty tricks, and the federal investigation is ongoing. The mayor has denied all wrongdoing but has declined to answer specific questions about his knowledge of the illegal funding, a $650,000 effort that prosecutors called a "shadow campaign."
Polls suggest that several challengers dividing up the anti-incumbent vote would benefit Gray, and Thies said none of those candidates has broken out of the pack. Councilmember Muriel Bowser won The Washington Post's endorsement and is trying to position herself as the most viable alternative to the mayor.
"There are only two options in this race," said Bo Shuff, Bowser's campaign manager.
Councilmembers Jack Evans and Tommy Wells beg to differ, and they have bases of support in their home wards. The deep field of candidates and the early date make this year's primary unprecedented, but that doesn't appear to be translating into an engaged electorate. Some campaigns blame the calendar — and the unusually harsh winter — for making it more difficult to interact with voters.
"It's April Fool's Day," Thies said, "and that speaks to the absurdity of when this election is scheduled."

The Space Between Self-Esteem and Self Compassion: Kristin Neff at TEDx Centennial Park Women
How do you typically react to difficulties in life—work stress, feeling rejected, physical problems, or financial hardship? As human beings, most of us instinctively fight negative experiences and find fault in ourselves when things go wrong: "This shouldn't be happening!" "What's the matter with me!?" Unfortunately, this tendency just adds stress to our lives and the critical self-talk defeats us before we know what's happening. For example, the more we struggle to fall asleep, the harder it is to sleep; fighting with anxiety makes us feel worried all the time; and blaming ourselves for feeling bad just makes us depressed. But what would happen if, instead, you took a moment to calm and comfort yourself when you felt bad, just because you felt bad—much like you'd do for others? In other words, what if you learned the art of mindful self-compassion?
Self-compassion is a skill that can be learned by anyone, even those who didn't receive enough affection in childhood or who find it embarrassing to be kind to themselves. Self-compassion is actually a courageous mental attitude that stands up to harm—the harm that we inflict on ourselves every day by overworking, overeating, overanalyzing, and overreacting. With mindful self-compassion, we're better able to recognize when we're under stress and face what's happening in our lives (mindfulness) and to take a kinder and more sustainable approach to life's challenges. Self-compassion gives emotional strength and resilience, allowing us to recover more quickly from bruised egos to admit our shortcomings, forgive ourselves, and respond to ourselves and others with care and respect. After all, making mistakes is part of being human. Self-compassion also provides the support and inspiration required to make necessary changes in our lives and reach our full potential.
Research has shown that self-compassion greatly enhances emotional well-being. It boosts happiness, reduces anxiety and depression, and can even help you stick to your diet and exercise routine. And it's easier than you think. Most of us feel compassion when a close friend is struggling. What would it be like to receive the same caring attention whenever you needed it most? All that's required is shift in the direction of our attention—recognizing that as a human being, you, too, are a worthy recipient of compassion.
Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) is a program developed by Kristin Neff, the pioneering researcher in the field of self-compassion (www.Self-Compassion.org) and the author of
Self-Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind; and Christopher Germer, a clinical psychologist who specializes in mindfulness and compassion-based psychotherapy (www.MindfulSelfCompassion.org) and the author of many books including
A Mindful Path to Self-Compassion.
In this program, you will learn . . .
Mindful Self Compassion program is offered in two different formats for the maximum flexibility:
The 8-week format - consists of 8 weekly,3 -hour sessions with 15 min breaks in a classroom/discussion group format, plus a 4-hour retreat. This class is often most easily integrated into our lives and offers an extended opportunity to deepen and solidify our practice.
The 5-day format - consists of a 5-day retreat. The course is typically offered in a retreat setting and offers the ability to learn self-compassion while taking time away from our ordinary stressors and immersing ourselves in practice.
NOTE: We recommend that if your schedule will not allow you to attend the first session, or prevents from attending any two sessions of the course, that you consider waiting until the next offering of the program.
8-week MSC Course Fee
The course includes the a MSC workbook, handouts, guided meditations and instruction and is offered for $620 ($570 if you pay in full 30 days in advance for the course).
Please Note: Those who have completed a UCSD Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program can receive a $50 discount on the MSC program. (Not applicable for 2-day MSC Core Skills Workshop.)

As savvy a piss-take on modern America as the Grand Theft Auto series has become, it's always worth remembering that it's not an American series. It's a British one. Rockstar are a British company (as were DMA), their founders, British. And with the GTA series nestled securely atop the gaming world in terms of both critical acclaim and popularity, Develop are wondering...when can we expect the series to start getting some serious recognition? Sure, they may have their tongue resting gently inside their cheeks when pondering how long til we see "the inevitable coming of Sir Sam Houser, or Dan Houser OBE", but the point itself is still valid! France are down with bestowing major recognition upon noted game developers, you can't help but wonder when places like Britain (and the US) will start doing likewise.

Ale and I went sightseeing on my last full day in Addis. Our guide whom we affectionately called Madame Mebrat accompanied us. We didn't really have a plan except that we wanted to see the unseen Addis. Oh, what a great day it turned out to be.
First, we went to the Ethiopian version of the local convention center, which was set up in a few large tents in what seemed like an open garden. This was a total chance discovery. Only later was my initial surprise to be revealed of having been frisked lightly at the entrance of the garden. We heard a band playing in the distance and we headed towards it to see a small crowd of people lining up against a red carpet. There were dance troupes representing the welcoming party dressed in the different ethnic outfits of Ethiopia. Large 4x4s would come in every few minutes and well dressed people in suits would disembark and head towards another tent of suited people sitting in front of a make shift stage. Later we found out that these were actually ministers of the state and the whole wait was for the prime minister himself to show up! They were celebrating the 20th anniversary of the liberation from the brutal Derg regime of communists.
We milled around for a while and then headed out of the garden towards the Red Terror Museum. I didn't know what to expect and was totally unprepared for the scenes and emotions which lay ahead. Right at the entrance was a statue of an old woman, flanked by 2 younger ones with anguished expressions and tears on their faces. The plate read "NEVER, EVER AGAIN!".
At the entrance was a most touching quote from this same old woman whom we found out had 4 sons slaughtered by the Communists in their prime, on a single night! The haunting quote read, "As if I bore them all in one night, They slew them in a single night!" Being a father of 3 myself, I knew what this quote meant as a parent and shuddered at the words which were a reality for this old woman.
As we got further into this rather modest but well-curated museum, we were quite shocked by the sheer capacity for barbarity in man. We discovered how over 2.5 million Ethiopians perished in the Derg period – some from a callously managed famine and others slaughtered at the hands of the army and citizen thugs. We were shown how people kept hope alive in the midst of unimaginable misery. We discovered how the students and the intellectuals were specifically targeted for barbaric torture and inhumane conditions during confinement to break their spirits and those of their fellow citizens. The "lucky" ones found a quick death.
We were shown the favorite "harsh interrogation" (aka torture) techniques that the regime had mastered in a particularly harrowing display of a hands-on human model sculpture. Many a time during the tour we almost ended our visit. The museum was too much for not just us but was even more so for Mebrat. Every few minutes, she would slip into a corner sobbing, letting her tears flow and getting a hold of her emotions. I first thought that this petite woman had an especially sensitive heart. Later I was to discover that hers was the strongest heart of us all. She shared with us that the horrors we could only imagine in faded pictures and descriptive words were actually hers in real life. Her own husband had suffered the brutality first hand. She had lost many a smiling friend to the 17-year-long horror of the Derg regime.
Another particularly harrowing exhibit was that of several glass cabinets filled with the remains of mass graves – tattered blankets, clothes, shoes, watches, rings, etc were the personal belongings of the victims. Another room had cabinets filled with human remains – skulls, teeth and bones. We were told that these represented a tiny fraction of mass graves that actually existed. Our wise tour guide made a decision to tactfully steer Mebrat away from this room as it might have been just too horrific of a memory for her.
We left the museum and walked in solemn silence for a while. We hugged each other and thanked Madame for sharing her sorrow with us. We made a real connection of humanity amongst us. Our hearts felt heavy but our spirits felt strong. I felt the weight of the resolve from the powerful words of the statue: "NEVER, EVER, AGAIN!"
PS. the Derg were toppled with US help to the rebels in the early nineties. Our visit happened to mark the 20th anniversary of this. That is why the Prime Minister was visiting the garden earlier!

Environmental Studies
understanding human and natural systems
At the heart of Southwestern's environmental studies program lies a list of provocative and urgent questions that students will be challenged to investigate.
- What is humankind's relationship to its environment?
- How do natural systems operate?
- What are some of today's most pressing environmental issues?
- How do we address the complicated issue of environmental justice?
- What are key environmental issues on the Southwestern campus and in Central Texas?
From these starting points, environmental studies students will begin an examination of the world around them that will continue through their time at Southwestern and into their lives beyond the classroom.

Our mission is to celebrate and serve the presence of the mother which resides above us, within our hearts, within the earth, and in all those who nurture us. We serve cuisine inspired by the kitchens of Mexico sourced from locally grown ingredients. Welcome to a seat at love's table. Un lugar en la mesa del amor.
We first conceived the idea of Gracias Madre while visiting the families of our employees in Mexico. We wanted to both offer organic Mexican food to the communities we serve as well as honor the mothers who work tirelessly in the kitchens of Mexico and often live without their husbands and children while they work side by side with us in California. Inspired by some of the recipes of these families and the love of their mothers, Gracias Madre serves organic, farm fresh, locally sourced food, full of flavor and love.
With the arrival of Gracias Madre in Los Angeles, Chef Chandra Gilbert finds themself once again featuring bold flavors and seasonally-conscious ingredients. The veteran chef, who has 33 years of experience working in the restaurant industry; including stints at Alice Waters' Café Fanny in Berkeley, Cowgirl Creamery and Greens Restaurant in San Francisco; has been with the Café Gratitude family since 2004 when they began working as Director of Operations for the esteemed family of vegan restaurants in the Bay Area. It was during that time that the idea for Gracias Madre began entering into the conversation with Café Gratitude Founders Matthew and Terces Engelhart. Together, they co-designed the restaurant's aesthetic and co-created the menu featuring produce from the Engelhart's Be Love Farm in Vacaville, bringing Gilbert's dream to fruition with Gracias Madre's San Francisco opening in 2009. The restaurant, located in San Francisco's Mission District, quickly garnered critical acclaim for its vibrant interpretation of Mexican cuisine. With the opening of Gracias Madre in West Hollywood in January 2014, Gilbert brings that passion to Los Angeles with a menu that blends produce from Be Love Farm with ingredients sourced from local farmers markets.
Gracias Madre is the perfect setting for birthday celebrations, company parties, corporate events and social gatherings, offering three different venue sizes to accommodate intimate parties of 25 or larger affairs of 400.
Approximately 5000 Square Feet
Indoor and Outdoor Full Service Bars
Pre-Selected Menus
Valet Parking

If you have a food or beverage allergy (particularly to nuts or seeds) we therefore recommend that you not dine with us. As such, please understand that Gracias Madre cannot be responsible for any injury, loss or damage claimed by any guest with a food or beverage allergy who consumes our food or beverages, regardless of the circumstances.

This plugin started out at the Mojo project. In March of 2006 the plugin was moved to Apache and the Maven sandbox. So it's the same plugin, but this one is newer.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException, when generating the JIRA Report. What can do about it?
If you have a lot of entities in the xml file returned from your JIRA installation, you might get an error like this one, when you run the JIRA Report:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Parser has reached the entity expansion limit "64,000" set by the Application.
mvn -DentityExpansionLimit=128000 ...
Unfortunately we have not been able to set this in Java. If someone knows how to do this, then please reopen MCHANGES-75, and tell us how. It would be nicer if this could be set using a parameter in the POM.

New Standard for Upholstered Furniture Flammability
California Bureau of Electronic and Appliance Repair, Home Furnishings and Thermal Insulation (BEARHFTI) approved a new standard (Technical Bulletin (TB) 117 – 2013) for up-holstered furniture flammability. Effective January 1, 2015, upholstered furniture manufactured on and after that date must meet the requirements of the new TB 117-2013 standard.
For years, upholstered furniture had to meet the California flammability requirements of standard TB 117-2000. This standard required filling materials such as foam to pass an open flame test. The updated method will change from the open flame method of testing to a smouldering test.
CTL can test your product to ensure compliance to this regulation.
Canadian Provincial Regulation Update
CTL wants to raise awareness of the Upholstered and Stuffed Article Regulations. Please ensure that your products' stuffed article label meets all prescribed content and format requirements of the regulations. CTL can assist you with label review and help answer any questions that you have.

"Children's product" means a consumer product marketed for use by children under 12 years of age or the substantial use of which by a child under 12 years of age is reasonably foreseeable. http://leg.state.vt.us/docs/2014/Acts/ACT085.pdf

What benefits does ssh -X kde-devel@localhost have over su - kde-devel? The question is directed mainly at tstaerk. ;) Logixoul 00:54, 5 January 2007 (CET)
Using sux
Have you considered using sux instead of "ssh -X" or "su - kde-devel && export DISPLAY=:0 && xhost +localhost:kde-devel" I see it easier and more convient. Kebianizao 18:40, 7 July 2007 (CET)
IIRC, $KDEDIR is not used anymore for some weeks now. It's $KDEDIRS now. Right? --Dhaumann 19:35, 27 January 2007 (CET)
keyboard layout
Can a note be added on how to change the Xephyr keyboard layout? I tried several options already but always end up with the default qwerty layout :( --tbscope 15:06, 24 February 2007 (CET)
Start Xephyr with the +kb option which enables the xkb extension. Then choose your keyboard layout in KDE as usual (System Settings/Regional&Language/Keyboard Layout) --BenjieMouse 12:35, 19 July 2008 (CEST)
screen size
The default screen size for Xephyr is 640x480 which is not enough for using KDE. I propose adding the parameter -screen 1024x768x16 for example. --Kebianizao 19:45, 10 July 2007 (CET)
Wouldn't it be helpful, to post a hint, that the installation of kdesdk is very useful? --Lucas-r2d2 18:37, 3 May 2007 (CEST)
I followed the chapter about kdevelop, nice work. Especially: - you tell the reader what to do - you tell him why to do this - your language is clear, e.g. "Now you should be able to start KDevelop by typing start3app kdevelop. Do that now."
I really like this tutorial and it worked for me. Thanks for the tutorial.
--Tstaerk 09:25, 21 December 2007 (CET)
Having problems getting the codecompletion to work for kde. Qt4 works just fine.
Tried to tell the importer to import every file in /usr/include/KDE which it does, but codecompletetion won't work.
Do this problem have anything to do with the fact that KDE includes look like this (in this case /usr/include/KDE/KApplication):
#include "../kapplication.h"
Also tried to download the newest KDElibs (4.0.1), but the files in the "includes" dir looks exactly the same as those in /usr/include/KDE
I use a temporary solution: I import every k*.h file from /usr/include which seems to get most of the kde header files.

Apartment Therapy at "Edible Selby" Book Launch
Talented interiors and fashion photographer Todd Selby recently celebrated the launch of his second book, Edible Selby, a collaboration with The NYTimes T Magazine about "the most interesting and creative chefs from around the world." We attended the showcase at the super cool headquarters of marketing agency Mother New York.
Joined by his book designer Michael Ian Kaye, a partner at Mother New York, Todd engaged in a lively discussion of the inspirations behind his unique style and his decision to turn his lens and paintbrush towards simple, delicious food.
Written and designed with Todd's creative and quirky sense of style, Edible Selby is a must for any foodie. Complete with stickers, Todd's own watercolor images, hand written notes and, of course, gorgeous photos, the book brilliantly captures the essence and authenticity of each of his culinary subjects.

Boyfriend asked if I am only after sex, how to validate him?
I have been with my boyfriend for a couple of months. My long distance relationship with him seems to be going well despite us not knowing each other well before we had to part :). The two of us talk on phone and Skype every day, my husband and him talk every week, we plan him visiting here and so on. My husband is happy about my BF. Me and BF are very much in love, and vocal about it, he often says I make him feel very loved :p. Still there are things in this relationship that may make my BF less comfortable. He is monogamous and was looking for a monogamous girlfriend - when he fell for me. He says he want to be with me so much he will make things work. My nightmare is that he will end us becaue of the long distance, or the polyamory, or both. He seems in general more and more comfortable sharing me with my husband, but he also sometimes voices doubts. They can hurt. :o
Today on Skype he asked me if I liked what he does in bed. In the beginning I thought he was flirting with me, but this time no such luck. Because when I answered that I love his bed skills, he asked if I would have continued the relationship with him if he had not been so skilled... Very hypothetical! :o I love the sexual part of our relation and he seems to do too. We also have a wonderful connection outside of bed. But I know that he has felt used for sex in a previous (long distance) relationship - I feel that coming up every once in a while, and think to myself that I perhaps have to help to heal those wounds. But how to do this? :confused: I do not know how to express to him how hurt I feel. It is not like he said i AM only after sex, but he was sort of asking the question. Even the suggestion is hurtful to me, and makes me uncomfortable about initiating sex or even flirting next time. I am afraid that I will become guilty for being turned on by :eek:. and if he is re-living bad memories I do not know how to help him deal with that. It is also a bad reminder of the time my ex, who I was very much in love with at the time, asked me if I was into him only for his looks - I feel just as judged as back then, if not more. I am glad my BF tells me what is on his mind (we try to keep it honest and open). Still I am not sure how to deal with his questions.... any thoughts? :cool:
Don't take it personally, since you know why he's asking. It's reasonable for him to wonder, I think. Don't turn his insecurity into yours, that's kind of selfish.
Edit: I wanted to clarify, it sounds like you're insulted that he is scared and insecure.
I'm sorry you struggle.
Could not take it personally. Could sort it out. Could also express your own feelings.
Could ask him something like
"When you ask me if I would have still been with you without your sex skills -- I do not know how to answer that. That is a "what if" and not a "what is" here.What behaviors does he need from you?
What behaviors do you need from him?
Could sort that out, and then could ask
Could be emotionally honest and authentic here. But not DWELL on stuff in your own head.
Could focus on (talking and sorting it out) instead of (focusing on feeling weird.) Then these feelings in you don't go out of proportion because you are taking action to resolve them.
I could talk to him about my own relationship buttons. There was really no time to do it laste we spoke, because we ended the Skype conversation quickly after he could get some sleep. I could make a point at talking to him about it tomorrow. He knows I had some bad stuff going with the ex (and really my other ex as well), but he does not know the specificities of that other than that I felt hurt from it. I guess if I want him to share, I must share first :rolleyes:
The last point will be the hardest I think. I guess it is my own bottons being pushed, together with the still fresh NRE and all the insecurites that may come from that ;). I suspect that I even before this felt a bit hurt that he was not initiating sex for some time, even though he always says he misses to be with me. And I was like putting it on hold since I knew he was busy with his family, but I long for him too. It could be that he is not so keen on doing it online anymore because it makes him miss me more, I don't know. Still it feels so awkward and I feel really rejected now nwhich will make it hard to raise the subject next time. It is a little bit like I don't want to see him anymore ever :mad:(a bit dramatic, I will come to my senses), it makes me angry just to think about it, I will have to work on turning myself around enough to be able to talk :(
Don't hurt him just because you are angry or upset. You have a long term committed relationship and he doesn't. In other words, he has no safety net if you hurt him by being angry and upset and give him the silent treatment, while you have a husband. You're the one trying to graft him into your existing relationship so he feels unrooted, especially given his mono leanings.
Also, it has occurred to me that you aren't supposed to validate him. You're just supposed to be honest, caring, supportive, and loving, and your emotional response appears to be dishonest, uncaring, and hurtful, which might be easier but is in now way going to help him.
You want him to feel secure and loved? Then tell him that you aren't using him and figure out your own feelings because it's not going to help him, or your relationship, if your first reaction is to hurt him by shutting him out.
Why do you feel hurt, anyway? Does it hurt you that I'm only talking to you because it makes me feel better? That I'm using you to understand how poly works from a mono perspective?

In an election that was supposed to be about jobs, jobs and jobs, the unemployed vote appears to be a dead heat.
In an exclusive look at how the unemployed will likely vote, CNBC found 26% of the public report either they or someone in their household has lost a job in the past four years.
But this group splits 48% to 48% in their presidential choice, similar to the broader population, which splits 48% to 47% for President Obama.
If the respondent themself was unemployed, the break is 50% for Obama vs. 45% for Republican challenger Mitt Romney. If only a person in the household lost a job (not the individual respondent), the split is 51% for Romney vs. 48% for Obama.
(Read More: Unemployment Report: Final Fodder for Election)
With a 7.9% unemployment rate in October, President Obama stands for reelection with the highest jobless rate of any president in the post-war era.

It's Wednesday and we have a seasonal challenge for you over at Stampin' Royalty.
This week the challenge is to use tags.
Hop on over and check out some of the fabulous samples from the design team.
I made this little box to hold all these tags.
The bow was a template from the "It's a Wrap" kit.
I made all these tags using My Digital Studio
and the "Tag It" template.
Here's a little look at the template. I just printed it out on my home printer. Then I mounted them on cardstock and carefully cut them out.
I added some jumbo brads and ribbon.
I attached some dimensionals to the smaller tags to make attaching them to gifts easier.

Why Telluride Blues and Brews is one of my all-time fave fests
The 18th annual Telluride Blues and Brews powered through rain, snow, hail and blazing sun Sept. 16-18 for yet another amazing three-day festival of music, food, beer and fun. There is so much to love about this well-orchestrated event. Let me count some of the ways:
1. Blues! And so much of it, from the country blues of the Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band to the soulful blues guitar of Robert Cray to the eclectic blues of Anders Osborne to the boogie woogie blues piano of Marcia Ball. Even when one of the headliners is Big Head Todd and the Monsters, not an immediate go-to for the blues, there are still blues in the offing — the band sent out some Robert Johnson in memory of the late David "Honeyboy" Edwards. Not to mention a ridiculously fun version of "Black Betty," which allegedly was written by 12-string blues guitarist Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter, although most people know it from Ram Jam. The Flaming Lips were sensational. Not really blues. But such a hoot to see live. As was Willie Nelson, bless his crowd-pleasing heart.
2. Brews! And so much of it, not only from the vendors who were sending it forth from kegs in garbage cans and strapped to their backs and in booths as fast as they could, for heaven sakes, but also at the grand tasting of 50 micros.
3. Fab food! Where to start? How about with dessert, which was hard to resist once I found the Telluride Truffle booth, where for less than $4 you could get a baby sundae (there was one called something like the "big papa" for $6.75, but it really was huge) with excellent vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and a choice of melted milk or dark chocolate. Healthier options included a wonderful selection of veggie-packed stir-fries and noodle bowls, as well as a gyros vendor doing an enormous Greek salad with a spanakopita for less than $10.
4. Um, it's in Telluride. The prevailing joke is that when it seems as though a performer has forgotten the words, it's really just that they've looked up for a sec and suddenly seen where they are. The snow-capped mountains can make it hard to concentrate. Between shows, you can wander around town, or hike the Jud Wiebe trail, or grab an expertly crafted latte at the Coffee Cowboy (123 E. Colorado Ave.) and pet one of the many dogs who hang out there.
5. It's green. All festivals should have to visit this festival to see how it can be done. Volunteers crouch atop the dumpsters to direct your garbage into the compost, recycling or regular bins, and very few items make it into the latter, because most of the products used here are uber-biodegradable. In addition, most of the energy is solar-generated, and the event sponsors have made this a 100 percent carbon neutral happening. Read all about it here.
6. It's chill. Even when it's freezing. Even when attendees had to cover themselves in Hefty bags to keep from drowning in the rain (I had a photo of this, but my buddy's camera met with an unfortunate post-festival Colorado River accident, and it now swims with the fishes). Even when walking around in the mud felt like surfing. No one complained. Sure, people made jokes about the mud and the cold and the hail, but I never ran into anyone who seemed to be seriously bummed out. We had blues! And brews! And we were in Telluride!
7. It's well organized. Bands started on time. Stuff was where it was supposed to be. There were more than enough port-o-potties, and they even had the washing stations. There was a huge section of games and a play area for kids. When the rain washed out the walkway at the entrance, they had a plan for getting folks safely inside. There was no bottleneck at the bag-checking station. Everyone was friendly and happy to be there, even on Day 3 when they were tired of looking to see if you were trying to sneak in a small dog – or worse, glass bottles filled with vodka – again.
8. The juke joints. When each day's music was over, if you were jonesing for more, a $25 juke joint ticket would get you into the four or five venues each night that were hosting the bands. It was very casual, and it went on for hours.
It may be time to put the 19th annual on your calendar. You can get on the mailing list here.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
The organizers of the upcoming Christ at the Checkpoint conference joyfully announced on Monday the addition of Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah (pictured) to their list of speakers.
"We are glad to confirm that his Excellency the Palestinian Prime Minister Dr. Rami Hamdallah will attend and speak in the opening session of the conference," the organizers posted to their Facebook page.
Both Hamdallah's invitation to address the event and the organizers' happy acknowledgement of his acceptance speak volumes about the true underlying message of Christ at the Checkpoint. This development also bolsters the arguments of those Messianic Israelis who feel they cannot endorse the conference with their own attendance.
So, who is Rami Hamdallah that his presence at Christ at the Checkpoint should cause such a stir?
Prior to being appointed prime minister of the Palestinian Authority last year, Hamdallah in 1998 accepted the post of president of An-Najah University in Nablus. Just three years into the job, Hamdallah oversaw a spectacularly grotesque celebration of anti-Jewish terrorism.
As part of the Hamas-sponsored "Splendors of Terror" exhibition put on at An-Najah University in September 2001, students reconstructed and reenacted the gory suicide bombing of the Sbarro pizzeria in downtown Jerusalem six weeks prior.
Fifteen civilians, including seven children and a pregnant woman, were killed and another 130 were wounded in that attack, which under Hamdallah's tutelage was commemorated as a heroic act of "Palestinian resistance." (see video below)
Since that time, various think tanks have labeled An-Najah as a hotbed of terrorist recruitment and activity, and Hamas described the institution as a "greenhouse for martyrs." That is the legacy of Dr. Rami Hamdallah.
Watch a short video of the An-Najah celebration of terror, interspersed with news footage from the site of the Sbarro pizzeria bombing:

Ultra Chrome ink
Every day we are faced with different types of printing.Color pictures, black and white images, text, graphics are an integral part of our lives. Modern technology offers us a wide range of equipment specially designed for the specific goals and objectives. We can choose not only among the various printers, but also among the various consumables. Initially, we need to decide what are we going to print? If we are planning to print color images, the ideal choice would be a jet printer, which is an excellent device to cope with the task. The print quality is affected not only by the characteristics of the printer, but also by printer's ink, the role of which cannot be underestimated.
Inkjet printing offers wide selection of ink, among which everyone can find the optimal solution for himself. If you do not print regularly, and the priority is given to the printing of color photos – in that case photo ink will be an ideal choice, they will please you with bright and colorful images. If you work mostly with documents, then the pigmented ink would be the best solution – sharp text is guaranteed for a long time.
Among many types of ink, there are those that are specifically designed for professional photo printing – UltraChrome ink. Exactly it will be considered in more detail.
Ultrachrome ink is perfect for professional photographers, designers and artists. Best-quality color reproduction with all the tones and shades – is undoubted advantage of this type of ink. With its help you will be able to convey the richness and depth of color, presenting a real work of modern printing on approval.
Ultrachrome ink is in high demand at studio photo printing. UltraChrome Ink represents spectacular pictures and images for many years. Posters, flyers, leaflets of the highest quality are made using ultrachrome ink. Bright and rich colors will attract attention for sure.
Using color ink from a well-known manufacturer, you will be provided with the guarantee of its high quality. INKSYSTEM offers ink that is really similar to the original Ultra Chrome ink – Pigment Ultra Ink. It is able to convey the depth of color of monochrome images and the gamut of color images.
Pigment Ultra Ink – the best analog choice for professional photo printing
Professionally developed, the modern Pigment Ultra Ink has become the best one in the field of printing(near the Ultra Chrome ink). Due to its properties such ink combines partially pigmented, partially water-soluble ink, with a significant advantage in a number of parameters.
It is distinguished from pigmented ink by the fact, that it contains a significant amount of solvent, due to which the ink is absorbed deeply into the material. Another advantage is the reliability of the ink represented. In addition to high durability of photos, you will get enough care for your printer. Even at the continuous down-time of the printer, up to three months, the ink does not dry out and does not damage the print head. The ink by INKSYSTEM will provide long stable operation of your device.
It is worth to mention a much less particle size in comparison to pigmented ink – what is typical for this type of ink, because they are designed for printing photos, and the presence of grains on a photo print is unacceptable. Pigment Ultra Ink perfectly lies both onto the glossy photo paper and onto the matte one.
As other types of color ink, Pigment Ultra Inkis compatible with refillable cartridges and continuous ink supply system. Using CISS, you can significantly reduce the amount of ink, giving yourself the opportunity to further savings. Quality and reliable continuous ink supply systems can be purchased at our online store.

Singers and songwriters bring tour to MSU Riley Center on Tuesday
It's one thing to hear world-class singers and songwriters perform their hits. It's another altogether to also hear them discuss the meanings behind their hit songs.
"The Heart Behind the Music" tour will treat the audience to both, bringing some of the industry's best to the MSU Riley Center in downtown Meridian as it showcases the talents of Kim Carnes, John Ford Coley, Gene Cotton, and Lenny LeBlanc, along with special guest Greg Barnhill.
The performance takes place Tuesday, July 16 at 7:30 pm.
If the names aren't familiar, perhaps the songs they've penned or sung will jog your memory. Carnes won a Grammy for her 1982 song of the year "Bette Davis Eyes." She has written for, recorded with, or sung backup for numerous renowned singers, including Barbra Streisand, Kenny Rogers, Reba McIntire, Vince Gill and Tim McGraw.
As half the Grammy-nominated duo with England Dan, Coley is heard in the 1976 hit song "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight." Songwriter Cotton plays well in several genres, including folk, rock, and pop, but is probably best known for his 1978 hit "Before My Heart Finds Out." His career got off to a fast start with the 1978 hit "Falling," but LeBlanc is best known now for his popular contemporary Christian songs.
Special guest Barnhill, a distant relative of "Singing Brakeman" Jimmie Rodgers, has penned such hits as "House of Love" for Amy Grant and Vince Gill as well as "Walkaway Joe," a duet by Trisha Yearwood and Don Henley.
Tickets are $35 and $29 at the MSU Riley Center box office, which is open from 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday. Tickets can be purchased online at www.msurileycenter.com or by calling the box office at 601-696-2200.
