Notes on the Happiest Place on Earth
We've just returned from two _______ days at Disneyland!
You fill in the blank:
A. Fun Filled
B. Terrifying
C. Delightful
D. All of the above…
If you answered D, you're correct!
Fun filled: Disneyland is magical. From the word "go!" — point of fact – we drove up to the in process renovation of the Disneyland Resort Hotel. My dear hubby got the bags out of the car while I sashayed up to check in, girls in tow. With my winning smile firmly in place, I asked the desk clerk if a room upgrade was possible. He frowned at me, glanced at the girls, then suggested that maybe his newest employees could get us a room in the new wing.
Newest employees? That would be great! I grinned. He leaned over the counter and called my daughters back, dressed them in employee vests, and allowed a 6 year old and a four year old to hunt and peck letters of our reservation into the computer. Darned if we didn't get a brand new room in the renovated Dreams tower, complete with carved wall mural, "A Dream is a Wish" music box, and LED fireworks light show behind the Sleeping Beauty Castle as a night light.
Each girl received a balloon, an autographed picture of the 1950s Disney cast, and entry into the kingdom!
Terrifying? Not for my oldest. Rachel is up for everything, though she has to be reminded to ride the little kid rides, as she calls them. LOVES them while she's on them, but would rather ride an endless stream of Splash Mountain, Grizzly Rapids, and of course – Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road. Her four year old sister? Chickened out of Splash Mountain at the last possible moment. Again. Perry and I discovered the wonderful world of Parent Passes, which enables one parent to pass of the kid that won't go, while the other rides, and vice versa.
Ellie wailed on her way out, begging for another go around on the psychadellic trip that is Winnie the Pooh's Heffalump adventure. She opted for the toddler track, riding Mr. Toad's wild ride, Dumbo, Alice in Wonderland, Small World, Buzz Light Year, and at CA Adventure – King Triton's Merry Go Round, and the new Toy Story Midway Game. The girls played together at the "Smoke Jumper's Camp" at Grizzly Bear Country, running up and down rope bridges, swinging on tire swings, and laughing themselves silly.
All was fine and good, until she watched us all "Trading her Off" with increasingly long face. She tried the Soarin' California and discovered that flying was cool! More fun when we were all together… and "Not dat scawy."
I convinced her that getting her grandmother onto the Grizzly Rapids ride was her bounden duty. She went to great lengths to encase her grandmother in waterproof capes, and drag her onto the river raft ride. Ellie was the wettest kid on the boat. We laughed until our sides hurt, at how waves crested her head at every drop. She loved it. Loved the attention. The drama! and ultimately decided, at the very end of day two, to brave Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road.
The end result? In her golden haired brilliance, she grins, "Mommy! I weally wike wollah coastahs!"
Ah, if only she'd have decided that before the end of day two!
It's a delight to see your kids relish new found things. Her boundaries are expanding. Her universe is bigger for having been brave. More than one set of parents and grandparents warned us to not rush this part… soon, they'll be tromping all over the park calling "Single!" and jumping to the front of the line, staying out until park close, as long as they phone in at regular intervals.
For now, we're riding roller coasters as a family…and our Disney trips for the next years to come will be all the more full because of it!
How to tame a toddler
There were posts going around on our message board for TWRP yesterday about writing with toddlers around. Yeah. That's a real trick, isn't it? Rachel's in that phase now that she can be kept busy for hours coloring, watching a favorite show, or working on her projects (see Rachel at the kitchen table with a pair of child-safe scissors and a bunch of hastily printed out family pictures. The kid is an amateur scrap-booker extraordinaire!)
Ellie is another story. The girl is a ball of energy, needing constant attention and wanting to talk all of the time. ALL of the time. These days, she still sounds vaguely like Elmer Fudd. All of her "L's" are "Yuh" sounds. Hear: Eh-yee instead of Ellie. Yost instead of Lost. At any rate, they've settled down again. I have a full day of work ahead of me, and we're going to race off with the "school kids" and meet our day care at the elementary school.
Will I have time to work on edits for All or Nothing today? I've reviewed the full MS –returned to me from Elizabeth on Tuesday–and I can absolutely make the changes needed in just a few short weeks if not sooner without breaking a sweat. The only question mark is with the kids! will they let me? Working on my writing before and after work, staying up late into the night, waking early in the morning, my friends ask me "When do you have time to sleep?" perhaps writing with small children in the house gives you just what you need to do that. I wasn't sleeping anyway…I might as well write.
Mornings with Ellie…
Ellie greets me every morning at the top of the stairs, usually while I'm having my morning coffee. I hear her sweet, raspy little voice:
"Mommeeee! I 'wake!"
So I go greet her, usually wrapped in her shiny pink blanket and laying at the top of the stairs, waiting for me with a slight, pearly grin.
"Morning, mommee… I want to go down-stay-ahs…"
So, I'll carry her down and we snuggle, listen to music, or watch her favorite show… this week, Scooby Doo. Last week it was Mrs. Spider. Before that, Dora. We like to mix it up. Ha.
Ellie's getting so big, but still, she's my baby. I'm struggling, because my surgery is coming in September, and I have 8 weeks or so where I won't be able to pick her up and carry her. Of course, at almost 40 lbs, I have a bit of a time carrying her around anyway, and she is almost 3… but, I love it. It's our time. So what will our time be after the surgery? I'd say, just like this. Me, typing one handed, and Ellie's head in my lap.
After all, I did write All or Nothing with Ellie in the crook of my arm… I can do it again… of course, she was about 30 lbs lighter back then…
Of Little Girls and Ladybugs…
My sister gave us a "new" used hybrid trailer for Christmas – that means, it has a 17′ long body, and pop out beds to 23′. We're planning on putting it to good use this summer, having already braved a trip in February – when we discovered the heater didn't work (BRRRRR). All freshly fixed up and serviced, we just spent a lovely getaway to the lake over the weekend. Perry fished to his heart's content (though I think I heard the fish laughing… we didn't see ANYONE catch ANYTHING all weekend.)
The girls and I collected ladybugs and butterflies and played on a hidden beach.We had a picnic under an enormous oak tree on a field of grass. Flew a kite. Connected the dots with the stars, and woke up with the birdies. Idyllic? well, we were camping in a pop-out trailer. I did my best this time not to envy all of the lovlely, shiny new 5th wheels and Class Cs that were parked all around. Class As didn't even bother to try camping where we were parked… So, social envy was curtailed in that arena.
Let's just say, we returned home with far less beer (and stress) than we hauled out with us. The girls are tan and happy, with some bandaid scars to share with their friends today at school. We spent last night finding many more places in and around SoCal to wander in our little tiny trailer. Can't wait to see where we take it next!
To be Two Again…
Oh, to be two and a half again…
To not care that you're covered in sand. To grab on to your mommy when a wave plows you over. To know that she'll be there to catch you and bring you up to the surface again. To build sand castles and see magic in the air when a kite takes flight on an unseen breeze. To trust. To love. To laugh. To live. I suppose that's what Jesus meant, when he said let the children come to me. We all need to remember what it is like to be truly childlike. Ellie and Rachel are my teachers. They're my education on how to dance like no one is watching. How to be goofy and fun and that it's more fun to hear your favorite song a hundred times than to skip around the radio looking for something else. If I were two years old today, I'd want to dig the deepest hole I could. To look for seashells. To sit and let the waves slap at my legs. To spend all day with my mom and dad. To play. To eat too much ice cream. To fall asleep on the way home and know that I'd wake up in the comfort of my own bed.
What a week.
I found out on Wednesday night that I had tonsilitis. What adult gets tonsilitis? Me, apparently. At least it explains my ping-ponging fever, and why I could no longer swallow. Perry was sick last week, me this week, I'm praying the girls stay healthy.
I'm 50 pages from being done with my first pass at revisions – then it's off to the next phase – the Editorial phase – of which I've never been on this side of the coin. Scary! exciting! I'm so ready. Reading all of these authors – these women on the Wild Rose Press message board – I can't wait to say that my book is on the market.
I'm also toying with several ideas on stories for the White Rose Line. So, we'll see what happens next. For today, I need to go play with Ellie. Rachel and Perry are doing the Dino Dad Day at school. Ellie needs some mommy time. If I can work in edge wise around Grandma. Ha!
Author Page Up on The Wild Rose Press
Well, ladies and gentlemen…I'm officially "in the garden" as they say. I have my author's link up on The Wild Rose Press website. View it here…
I'm also meeting some fantastic fellow authors – the ladies in the garden are most prolific. It's actually most exciting and gives me a great deal of hope that All or Nothing will be more than a single title for me. Those who know me well know that writing has always been my heart's desire. And, wow. Here we are in rewrites.
Speaking of rewrites, here's a note as to progress:
I'm up to page 87 of 304. I feel really good of about 80 of them. (The page number/total changes as I rip scenes out, rewrite the POV, and I have to admit – some I mourn the loss of and others I can't believe I ever clung to as if a liferaft in a stormy sea!)
My overwhelming issue has been with my supporting cast, if you will. Yes, it's interesting to know who they are and how they think and feel, but as Elizabeth has reminded me again and again, the story is about RuthAnne and Bowen. And come to think of it, I'm a glosser over myself when I'm reading chapters such as these. AND when you gloss over your own chapters, that would be a big warning bell I would think.
The Online Writer's group I've joined is really neat. So far, I've "met" an author/cover artist from San Diego – and Canada – and various other well wishers who all lend phenomenal support. I've evaluated my character's opinions about me… (yikes. Never suspected Bowen would consider me a gossip!) and all of that. Crazy. Now I am looking to consider my writing process. Well, fits and starts seems most appropriate these days.
I have a stack of half finished plot outlines, WIPs and scraps of paper with ideas that I had at 3:45 am – which apparently is when my brain wakes up with creative fervor! my body however, flings a pillow over my head and forces me back into a restless slumber. That is, until I'm summoned by two year old Ellie to soothe a nightmare, fetch a cup of water, and now for heaven's sake! take her to the potty. She's 2! she potty trained herself and doesn't even use her pull up at night! must limit her fluid intake prior to bedtime. MUST. *sigh* Maybe I'll finally get the hang of motherhood by the time they go to college.
Of course, last night – my inspiration is this love of time travel romances that is flitting through the garden. I have one in my drawer – in need of a rewrite since many elements from that one migrated to All or Nothing (my stories are by no means monogomous in their pre-published formats).
SO – perhaps this one – Working title "The Hawk and the Raven" – a 3:47 am inspiration – might get my attention next. I will say this. Seeing all of these amazing women working on multiple projects, juggling family, career, life, the universe, and everything is incredibly inspirational. I finally feel like I've found where I belong.
Until tomorrow!

AFAICS, any serious iPhone developer must make and use static libs on a regular basis, or else condemn themselves to buggy, hard-to-maintain, unwieldy projects. But Apple refuses to provide any official docs on the process (just circular references: "dont do static, use dynamic! ... we don't allow dynamic on iPhone, use static!")
I have spent more than 6 months experimenting with this; I have deployed static libs in multiple iPhone apps on the App Store; I came up with a nice, working system based on Universal Binaries ... that IMMEDIATELY BROKE when OS 3.x came out (LOL); ... I now have a new system that works with all versions of the iPhone OS.
I have read the related questions on StackOverflow on this topic, and they either don't go far enough for full usage of static libs, or require you to use one or more external command-line tools, hence breaking out of the IDE. What's the point in an IDE if you can't get everything to work inside it?
I think I've found a way that works, entirely inside Xcode. But I'm really nervous, based on past experience...
I would love some feedback on whether this time - finally! - through trial and error, I've actually got it right.
OR ... even better ... I would love to find someone who will tell me exactly how you are "supposed" to do it, how Apple expects / wants / requires you to do it.
The process I have is sufficiently convoluted that I've written it up into two blog posts:
- First post: basic assumptions and problems
- Second post: methodology, and step-by-step process
PLEASE NOTE: there are many things I don't know about iPhone and Cocoa programming that I ought to; I know there's a lot wrong with what I'm doing, but I'd rather share it and possibly get shouted at than keep quiet and never learn what I'm screwing up.
Thoughts? Improvements? Or even ... am I a complete fool, and there was a much, much easier route that I was dumb enough not to notice in all my searching?
Thanks in advance...

|Noble Conflict by Malorie Blackman. Heaven in a hand-grenade
I'm new to her work but I'm hooked, simply because Noble Conflict weaves exactly the kind of story world I'm inexplicably drawn to. Talk about dystopian futures, divides in society, conflict and rebellion and I am there with knobs on - and that's what you'll find wrapped between these black luxurious covers.
The story begins with an introduction to the main character, one Kaspar Wilding, a freshly scrubbed new recruit to the Order of Guardians. Call them peacekeepers, a security force, but they are the front line in a futuristic world where the thread of order is frayed and dwindling.
We follow Kaspar's progress through boot camp initially, but soon we also encounter the main meat and bones of the story as The Guardians are repeatedly attacked as insurgents strive to undermine their ordered society.
Kaspar soon finds that there is far more behind the scenes with the seemingly random acts of terrorism. In conjunction with computer genius Mac, a cute purple haired 'civvy' working alongside the Guardians, Kaspar uncovers a plot and becomes more directly involved with the insurgents as he meets one face to face after a traumatic incident while out in the field.
Kaspar soon finds himself on the wrong end of both the Guardian chain of command and the insurgents themselves as he fights to uncover the truth.
As we follow Kaspar's quest, it's easy to draw comparisons with what's happening in the world today and from what I read, this is something that Malorie Blackman specialises in. Drawing allegorical comparisons between the fight for liberty versus the war against terror, "Noble Conflict" is addictive stuff and I particularly love Malorie's 'balls out' approach to her character's dialogue and depth.
You'll be expecting a twist, and there is a huge one. You may also be expecting closure and resolution but unless we get to revisit Kaspar's world (and I dearly hope we do) you'll be left wanting more by the time you finish this book.
"Noble Conflict" By Malorie Blackman is from Doubleday, and was released on 6th June 2013.

Do Animals Experience Grief?
News of a mother orca carrying a dead infant through the icy waters captured the attention of many around the world. She was trying to keep her infant afloat as best as she could, before finally leaving him behind. This was the most obvious display of grieving of a marine mammal. Not all scientists agree that animals have the capacity to express grief or to respond in some complex way to death. Grief is a complex emotion that demands a certain level of understanding, the feeling of losing something or someone. Jules Howard, a zoologist wrote:
"If you believe J35 (mother orca) was displaying evidence of mourning or grief, you are making a case that rests on faith, not on scientific endeavor."
A growing number of scientific evidence supports the idea that nonhuman animals are aware of death, they can experience grief and sometimes they will mourn the dead one or even ritualize the dead. This type of behavior requires a certain level of intelligent behavior.
However, scientists don't know that much about death-related behavior in nonhuman animals. Only a few scientists have explored the idea how nonhuman creatures think and feel about the death. Or do they have a concept of death at all? Still, animals show affection especially to their newborns and sometimes they express behavior that could be viewed as a presentation of complex emotions such as grief.
Hurricane Lane
Hurricane Lane started moving on August 22, carrying strong winds and heavy rains. The hurricane has impacted space science by closing some of the most iconic telescopes and has delayed the launch of a mission designed to help NASA's research on distant icy moons.
Hawaii's Mauna Kea is home to the iconic Keck Observatory telescopes which had to be closed on August 23.
In the released statement, Hilton Lewis, observatory director confirmed that the facility will remain closed without regular night observations.
In the statement, Hilton Lewis confirmed that the observatory will stay closed because flooding is causing some road problems through the whole island. Lewis stressed that the facility was not impacted by any damage from the hurricane.
The hurricane had an impact on Systematic Underwater Biogeochemical Science and Exploration Analog (SUBSEA), a mission that was due to sail on August 23, 2018. However, the oceanographic mission was postponed. It is planned that the mission will explore the seafloor at Lo-ihi, which is the volcanic seamount off the coast of the Big Island. Scientists will study geology and microbes at the site which they hope could monitor the environments found below the ice of Saturn's moon Enceladus and Jupiter's moon Europa. The oceanographic mission and observatory are prioritizing safety and they are waiting for the storm to pass before setting to explore the unknown, the deep ocean and the far-away galaxies.
The Purest Drop of Water
It might seem shocking that we are not really drinking super clean water. Whether we buy bottled water or not, the water is always full of certain impurities which are mainly not dangerous for us.
However, a group of researchers at the Vienna University of Technology announced they have created the clearest drop of water in the world. This ultrapure drop of water could explain how a self-cleaning surface becomes covered with a mysterious layer of molecules once it comes in contact with water and air.
A co-author of the study and a chemist at the Vienna University of Technology, Ulrike Diebold said:
"We had four labs [around the world] studying this and four different explanations for it."
When a TiO2 surface is exposed to ultraviolet light, it can react in a way that all organic compounds are gone. Creating a super clean drop of water was quiet a challenge since water easily becomes contaminated with any visible or invisible traces of impurity. Perfectly clean and pure water doesn't exist. To create this perfectly clean water, the group of scientists had to designs a gadget that would push water to its limits.
Diebold said: "The key is that neither the water nor the titanium dioxide had ever been exposed to air before."
When water is exposed to air it is automatically contaminated by traces of impurity in the air.

Turning Commerce 'Stroad' into a Street
What is a "stroad" and how do you turn it into a street?
Rivard Report (https://therivardreport.com/author/sarah-gibbens/)
What is a "stroad" and how do you turn it into a street?
Bexar County and the San Antonio River Authority (SARA) hope to make the city greener by improving San Pedro Creek, a stretch of the creek that runs parallel to I-35 through downtown.
After reviewing information about the status of low-income housing market in San Antonio, the Mayor's Task Force on Preserving Dynamic and Diverse Neighborhoods concluded their Thursday meeting one step closer towards coming up with a policy that protects residents from the deleterious effects of quickly changing neighborhoods, including gentrification.
Gloria Steinem talked about using her torch to inspire others, Jill Biden called on communities to show random acts of kindness, Dolores Huerta told women they could do it, Rosie Castro spoke about the hardworking Latino community and Sister Rosemary Nyirumbe preached love and compassion.
While serving as one of the nations most visible public figures would have been a harrowing task for some.
Beer, bratwurst, and blaring German music promise to make this year's Oktoberfest one to remember.
The fourth annual Inspire Awards ceremony Tuesday night was just that — inspiring.
What do Gloria Steinem, Diane von Furstenberg, Eva Longoria, Kay Bailey Hutchison and Mayor Ivy Taylor all have in common?
The 1% might not be the only ones striking investment gold.
Alumni returning to visit their universities may have a hard time recognizing one of the most important part of any academic institution: the library.

1. What is "Performance Management"?
"Performance Management" is the process that organizations use to plan, evaluate and review employees' work effectiveness and overall contributions to the success of the organization.
2. What is wrong with traditional Performance Management systems?
The traditional Performance Management process typically includes a year-end annual review, conducted by each manager for every employee they manage. Often, another planning meeting is conducted at the beginning of the year to establish goals for the next year. In between, a lucky employee might receive a mid-year review (and if you're very lucky maybe a quarterly check-in), but otherwise often must wait until the end of the year again for additional feedback on her performance. To prepare for these annual performance reviews, employees often spend hours or more to prepare self-evaluations, and managers might spend dozens of hours completing reports for their direct reports, not to mention completing 360 reviews for their peers and manager.
The key challenges with current Performance Management systems include:
BlinkEval presents an intuitive solution to facilitate real-time feedback for employees. Feedback not just once or twice a year, but dozens – potentially hundreds – of points of actionable feedback.
1. How exactly do I provide a rating and feedback?
Ratings and Feedback can be submitted in a matter of seconds. First, log in to your account.
If you have connected your calendar, your most recent meeting will pre-populate the rating template. (If you need to connect your calendar,
you can do so in your settings page. See here for help.)
Step 2: Move the slider to rate the meeting and participants. Step 3: Add any comments or other notes. Step 4: Submit. That's all there is to it!
For more information on getting started, see here.
2. Can I evaluate individual performance relative to pre-established goals?
No, we have built BlinkEval based upon the principle of simple, frequent and actionable feedback. Thus we avoid identifying employee goals, but rather focus on performance results in each colleague interaction relative to your colleagues' expectations.
3. What about my personal goals? Does BlinkEval incorporate individual goals?
Not currently. We believe the most important piece of feedback is whether employees meet the expectations of their managers, their peers and the colleagues they may manage, for as many interactions as possible. Incorporation of personal goals can be accomplished by your current HRIS or PM vendor, and may be incorporated into BlinkEval in the future, depending on our customers' needs.
4. Can I use this to provide feedback to customers, vendors or other non-colleagues?
Yes. Many of our early customers have used BlinkEval to solicit feedback from customers after meetings or conference calls. They have found it to be valuable to give a heads up to customers to expect an email notification from BlinkEval after the meeting is complete, and that their feedback will take between 15-60 seconds and will be extremely valuable to improving effectiveness.
Please recognize that your relationships with outside parties may be more sensitive than feedback to colleagues, so consider how you provide feedback to customers and vendors very carefully.
5. What if I don't want to provide feedback to certain individuals when prompted?
You are always able to "skip" feedback for any particular event or any individual associated with any event. Just don't place the rating slider on the scale for that event or individual.
6. What if I want to skip the notes to the feedback?
To skip adding a note, simply click on the "No Thanks" button when prompted to add a note. However, since comments are particularly valuable to help explain why someone exceeded or fell short of your expectations, the narrative comments tend to be more valuable than the rating alone.
To make it easier, we have "prepopulated" notes that correspond to the most frequent comments – you may drag and drop (or click) these notes into the comments box to help save you time.
7. What if I want more detailed feedback from my manager/peer/report?
Use your feet and go visit your colleague, or use your fingers and phone them. More in-depth one-on-one conversations are always beneficial, particularly if there is a disconnect between performance and expectations.
We are working on building product enhancements to future product releases to request more detailed feedback.
8. Can I use BlinkEval on my mobile phone?
Yes. BlinkEval has been optimized for most mobile devices. Both the BlinkEval home page and the Application should be accessible and usable on your phone or tablet. If you would like to add a BlinkEval icon/link to your home screen, please follow these instructions:
Navigate to www.blinkeval.com.
Android: Click on browser menu and select "Add to Home Screen".
iOS: Click the share button (the rectangle with an upward arrow). Tap the "Add to Home Screen" icon.
A BlinkEval icon will be added to your home screen. When you open the app, click on the menu in the upper right and either sign in, or go straight to your dashboard to start providing feedback.
1. What does my "Does Not Meet" expectations rating mean?
One "DNM" rating is usually not serious and could be the result of ineffective communication of expectations for your performance (or expectations for the meeting/call). Take the opportunity to communicate with your manager or colleague(s) to clarify expectations for your role in the next meeting or call.
Several "DNM" ratings may suggest the need for more clarification with your manager. Take the opportunity to arrange a more in depth discussion with your manager or someone from HR.
2. Can my Company see the ratings people give to me?
Typically, only HR will have access to individual ratings and comments. The purpose is to allow HR to ensure that consistently high performers are receiving appropriate recognition, and those who may be falling short of expectations receive appropriate coaching and feedback to ensure their long-term success.
Your colleagues will not be able to view your ratings or feedback, unless your company has chosen to provide the information to managers. Some of our customers have chosen to share with managers the ratings and feedback for their direct reports, so they can more proactively recognize high performers and provide coaching those falling short.
3. What will my ratings be used for?
Typically, ratings are only used for individual performance feedback so that all employees can communicate expectations more effectively and work to meet and exceed those expectations. Individual performance and achievements can be more immediately recognized.
Occasionally, some of our customers will use the annual log of ratings and comments as an input into the annual review process. In those cases, ratings may influence individual merit increases and/or annual bonuses or other rewards, depending on your company's reward strategy and compensation administration guidelines.
4. Will my pay or future promotions be influenced by my ratings or feedback?
We advise our customers to avoid using BlinkEval for pay decisions for at least 12 months, in order to better understand how employees use the product and to ensure BlinkEval is being used to add value to your workforce. Please contact your HR department to understand if and how BlinkEval will figure into your compensation, rewards or career opportunities.
1. What is the difference between an "Individual Account" and a "Company Account"?
Any individual can sign up for a free individual account and provide ratings and feedback for any meeting. Individual account users can view all ratings and feedback provided to them by others.
A "Company Account" is similar to an individual account, but organized by your employer. This allows employers to invite groups of employees to join BlinkEval at once, so entire departments or business units can use the tool.
2. Why should I use my work email when I register my account?
Since BlinkEval will pre-populate your feedback templates with event information from the calendar connected with the email address you use when registering your account (note: calendar integration does not occur automatically; you will still need to connect your calendar in your settings). BlinkEval will also send email notifications to the email address you register.
If you do not want to provide feedback on a particular event on your calendar, you may always decline and skip a particular feedback event.
In the future, we will be adding functionality to allow users to add a personal email address as well, so they can connect to a second personal calendar, if desired.
3. How do I connect my calendar?
Log in and click on Settings. At the bottom of your Settings page, you can easily connect your calendar.
See here for more help on setting up your account.
4. How does the pricing for Company Accounts work?
Company accounts are free for the first 100 users. Beyond that you will need to enter a credit card number into your billing information. If you have 500 or more users and wish to be invoiced separately, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
5. What happens if I need to add or delete users after we sign up for our Company Account?
You may add as many additional users as you need. Once you have added your credit card information into your billing information, additional users added during the month will be incorporated into your following month's billed amount.
If you delete users during the month, your following month's billed amount will be reduced accordingly. Unfortunately, we cannot offer refunds for unused user licenses.

When I think back to my early years as a junior DBA, I can't help but cringe. Man, did I have some dark days! Mainly because I had no idea what was even possible when it came it to SQL Server monitoring.
Oh, the joys of manual monitoring!
Whenever issues popped up, I'd stop what I was doing and manually write scripts to try to track down the problem. Not only did this take forever, but it didn't always reveal the root cause of the issue anyway – much less provide any helpful insight about how to resolve it. And even when I did finally pinpoint the culprit, more servers would start to fail – before I could even begin to fix the first issue of the day.
I was exhausted and overworked.
I thought using free, manual methods was the right thing to do. I thought it made me a more valuable employee. The last thing I wanted to do was rock the boat or admit I needed a better solution. What I didn't realize then that I know now is that companies value efficiency and peak database performance above all else. The success of their business hinges on those two things. And when you find a better method, like a powerful, automated approach to SQL Server performance monitoring, everyone wins.
Knowledge is power.
But when you're starting out, it's hard to know what you don't know. And that's where expert help comes in. Looking back, the one thing that had the most profound impact on my career – and personal happiness – was taking an hour here or there to attend expert webcasts. Think the biggest names in tech can't be your personal mentors? Think again! With so many options for free, online training out there, you can learn from the best and the brightest.
Case in point: Andy Warren's MSSQL webcast
Back in the day, I would've killed for all the expert insight in this webcast on SQL Server monitoring. You can check it out to get life-changing monitoring tips from one of the founders of SQL Saturday. In this session, Andy covers everything I struggled with that I just mentioned, and what you're probably dealing with, too.
Learn cool monitoring hacks for busy DBAs.
You'll learn what you need to monitor in your environment and how to monitor it proactively – without wasting time writing scripts. You'll discover a faster way to detect blocking, deadlocks, long-running queries, failed logins and failed jobs. Plus, you'll see how to capture more detail on how the system is being used at both the hardware and software level. You'll gain a deeper understanding of built-in capabilities like reports in SSMS, sp_who, Profiler and Extend Events, as well as Perfmon and PAL as a way to monitor and capture metrics related to server performance and SQL Server itself.
Look at SQL Server monitoring in a new light.
There are easier ways to overcome your current challenges, and I can't recommend this kind of webcast highly enough. It's truly the best place to start. You won't believe what's possible when it comes to database monitoring. But I promise you, you'll be so much happier when you get away from tedious, inefficient methods. And as intimidating as it is to even consider a new approach, in the end, it's the only way to take your career, and your company, to the next level.
Put your tough days behind you.
Check out Andy's simple tips to improve SQL Server monitoring.

Vard to Build All-Electric Ferry for Boreal
Norwegian shipbuilder and ship designer Vard Holdings Limited has won a contract to build one car and passenger ferry for compatriot transportation company Boreal.

Just over a week after a costly brain fade during Game 1 of the NBA Finals, Cavaliers guard JR Smith has arrived at the Oracle Arena in Oakland for Game 5, despite the series having already finished.
In Game 1, Smith grabbed a rebound with just under five seconds left and the scores tied, but instead of taking a shot or passing it to an open LeBron James, he waited for time to expire as he thought they were in front.
Arriving for this non-existent game only adds insult to injury for Smith, as he has been extensively ridiculed since Game 1's brain fade.
After hearing the news of JR's blunder, our reporters made their way to the arena to speak to him.
"I knew something was up when I was the only one on the plane," he said.
"Then I was waiting at the hotel for ages because I thought Ty Lue was going to call a cab. What coach wouldn't call a cab in that situation when there was one available?
"This all would've been avoided if George Hill answered his phone when I wasn't sure if the game was actually on. He answers it like 80% of the time," he said emotionally.
It's a long way back to Cleveland now for Smith, but he says his mind is solely on the offseason and working on his game, in particular his situational awareness.

Michelle Vo was thrilled to attend last weekend's country music concert in Las Vegas with some girlfriends.
But on Sunday, as they were prepared to leave, the 32-year-old insurance saleswoman decided to stick around on her own to watch Jason Aldean, the last act of the Route 91 Harvest Festival.
Then Vo, a graduate of San Jose's Independence High School, headed off to the venue, where she met Kody Robertson, a 32-year-old auto parts salesman from Ohio. They hung out for a few hours, danced and laughed.
And as they stood next to each other amid some 22,000 fans, they heard the first pops echo across the Las Vegas Strip, just after 10 p.m. They thought it was fireworks, just a part of the show.
But as people started to scramble and push and tried to figure out what was really going on, a bullet pierced the left side of Vo's chest, and she fell — one of 59 people who died from bullets fired by Stephen Paddock, the man who sprayed concertgoers with gunfire from a window on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.
"He threw his body on her when she was shot," Cathy Warren, one of Vo's two sisters, said Robertson told her. "I'm thankful that he was there, and we are grateful she did not die alone.''
When the firing finally seemed to stop, Robertson said he worked with another man to carry Vo out of the venue — pausing for cover each time the gunfire resumed.
"Michelle, Michelle!" Robertson screamed as he and the other man took turns performing CPR on Vo, who was not longer responsive. "Wake up!"
Finally outside, Robertson spotted a white pickup truck whose driver was headed to the hospital. He set Vo down on the truck bed, then ran back toward the stage to help others.
He saw Vo's purse on the ground in the area where they had been dancing. Her phone wasn't inside, so he furiously called the number Vo had given him earlier until, finally, someone answered. Another group of concertgoers had picked up the phone as they ran for the exits. Robertson could pick it up at Planet Hollywood.
The phone rang and it was Jeremiah Hawkins, 37, the husband of Vo's oldest sister, Diane, calling from the couple's home in Washington state. He was frantic, asking Robertson about Vo and where she had been taken.
Robertson didn't know, but he told Hawkins he would keep looking until he found her.
He called all the hospitals he could find. He dialed the information line set up by police. No luck.
Hawkins asked Robertson if he had tried Sunrise Hospital. H had not, so Robertson took a cab to the hospital.
When he described Vo to a hospital worker behind the front desk, he was told she might be there.
By 11 a.m., Robertson was led to a small back office. "Michelle didn't make it," one of the doctors told him. "The wounds were too much."
Robertson called Hawkins with the bad news.
"She was a very beloved person and really full of life," said Cathy Warren, who lives in Campbell. "Anyone she met — it didn't matter who it was — she made you feel welcome."
Charismatic, energetic and independent, Vo was born in Fullerton but grew up in San Jose with her two sisters, Diane and Cathy, and younger brother, Alex. Over the years, she became a huge fan of the San Jose Sharks and the Oakland Warriors. And she played a mean game of golf.
Vo also also volunteered at the Red Cross.
"If they had let her go everyday she would have gone every day," Diane Hawkins said. "She gave blood religiously, and they had to tell her she could only come back every two weeks."
Vo graduated from high school in 2003 and then attended UC Davis, where she majored in business and marketing, said Cathy Warren. And it was there that she met her husband-to-be, Tomo Swenson. (The two were separated.)
Returning to San Jose, Vo worked as an executive assistant to the marketing directors at companies like Synopsys and RichRelevance. But years later, during a downsizing at a firm, she was laid off.
That gave her the opportunity to travel for a few months in Europe by herself, before landing a new job at New York Life Insurance — this time, in Southern California.
On Tuesday morning, a colleague at the company in Pasadena who knew Vo called her "one of our tops agents — very ambitious and a very hard working person.''
The woman, who asked not to be identified, described Vo as a very pleasant and outgoing person who was based in the company's Glendale office.
Top agents, she said, have to be go-getters and well-organized — two of Vo's strongest qualities. "Everyone is really upset'' about her death, she said.
Vo loved all kinds of music, but was introduced to country Western by her brother-in-law Hawkins.
"Slowly she drifted toward it," recalled Diane Hawkins. "In country the theme of each song is so sweet she fell in love with it."
Vo's mother, father and sister Diane had fled Vietnam in 1985 in a canoe-like boat to escape the communist regime. They landed in Thailand, where Cathy was born, and a few years later made their way to Orange County, where the mother's brother lived.
"It was the perfect American dream — an immigrant family, against all odds, persevering," said Jeremiah Hawkins.
Vo's father died at age 41; her mother moved the family to San Jose, where she remarried.
Vo's relationships with her family remained especially tight, especially with her mother and sisters.
In the moments before the shooting, she'd been showing photos of her sisters to Robertson, and bragging about how beautiful they are. Her family said she was expected to come home to San Jose this weekend for a visit.
For the last 15 years, her mother, Hana Bui, has managed Dave's Barber Shop in Cupertino. On Tuesday, she forced herself to go to work, hoping it would distract her from her grief.
Bui said she is leaning heavily on her Buddhist faith to help her cope with the loss of her daughter.
"I loved my husband before, and I loved my daughter,'' she said tearfully. "And both are gone, but you continue to love them. That makes me feel better."
Staff writer Mark Gomez, The Washington Post and the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch contributed to this report.

Health Inspections
But as I said, I've never really considered cleanliness when eating at a restaurant. I assume if the places is dirty, its because they're too busy satisfying customers to have time for cleaning. Also, when places start cleaning more, they tend to raise prices. My favorite chinese restaurant in law school cleaned up the "dining area" by putting in tile and wiping off the tables between customers. They also charged an extra dollar for each item. No thanks, I'll spend my $4.45 elsewhere thank you. Yuppies...go back to Pittsburgh.
The reason I mention all of this is because I don't want anybody thinking I will provide reviews that take cleanliness into consideration. I might mention something that stands out when I eat at the restaurant, but I have no intention of checking their record. In fact, I will avoid it. I don't care if they didn't keep their cheese at 42 degrees, or if they didn't wash their hands after cutting chicken or if they used the bowls as toilets in the morning. Honestly, I want cheap, good food. If it takes some bacteria to get there, thats fine.
Note: the chicken thing and toilet/bowl (get it?) thing would actually bother me, but only if I saw it.
I would also like to mention that the next item I mention in this blog should not be read in conjunction with this post. I'm not making a comment on the cleanliness of any restaurant reviewed in the past or future.
One final note. In my opinion, you're more likely to get something nasty (like spit in your food) at a place with surly young people who have no respect for humanity, than you are from a family member of the owner of a small place who has mama yelling at him to hurry it up or he'll get hit upside the head. In other words, big chains with young people who probably easily get mad at customer number ____ are more likely to get upset than the small restaurant people who depend on each and every patron.
One more final note. Do you really think you are that clean in cooking? Lets be honest. You sneeze off to the side while cooking without covering your mouth or your food. You don't wash your hands every time you switch ingredients. You don't keep ingredients at the proper temperature. You may even use your bowls inappropriately. So I wouldn't worry about what any restaurants are doing. Unless it involves surly young teens...

Marvin Zindler was the guy in Houston that did restaurant reviews/inspections. Think he died of food poisoning.
Is sneezing while cooking considered seasoning?
You are right about the family owned HITW restaurants. They work hard to keep their customers healthy and coming back.

I like to think sneezing makes it more personal and isn't that what cooking for someone is about? Giving a bit of yourself?
I checked on Marvin Zindler. He died of pancreatic cancer in July of this year.
Had it been food poisoning I would probably have to reconsider this post.

It's completely true that your home kitchen is likely nastier than most commercial kitchens. They have inspectors coming around regularly to make sure they're up to snuff and can be shut down if they're not.
You don't. (Unless your mom likes to come and make surprise inspections.)

Labour exploitation in Qatar continues despite the promises for reforms, Amnesty International reported today. Amnesty reported that the Qatari authorities have done almost nothing effective to end chronic labour exploitation.
"Too little has been done to address rampant migrant labour abuse. Qatar's persistent labour reform delays are a recipe for human rights disaster," said Mustafa Qadri, Gulf Migrant Rights Researcher at Amnesty International. "The reforms proposed by the government fail...

Democratic FCC Commissioner Michael Copps has strong doubts about AT&T's proposal to buy T-Mobile, calling it a "steeper climb" than the merger of Comcast and NBC Universal, a transaction he voted to block.
"This is maybe even a steeper climb from the standpoint of a lot of power and a lot of influence given to one company in a world where two companies are going to control around 80 percent [of the market]," he said on an episode of C-SPAN'S "The Communicators," which will air this weekend.
Copps raised concerns that the merger review would "suck the oxygen out of the room" for telecom issues before Congress and at the Federal Communications Commission, and suggested strong conditions might not be enough to justify a combination of this magnitude.
"Sometimes it seems like we're just the federal merger commission," he said. "Why do we spend so much time trying to make what some people would deem unpalatable minimally acceptable? ... Is that the best we can do for competition?"
The FCC must scrutinize "what competition will be left" and what the impact on U.S. jobs will be. He said he is looking into the latter question but has yet to find a sufficient answer. AT&T's chief executive, Randall Stephenson, indicated Wednesday that he's not sure what the net job impact will be, suggesting to Dow Jones he expects both layoffs and hiring if the transaction goes through.
Copps said he is concerned the issue will put incentive auctions and public safety communications on the backburner. The presence of one fewer company could change how attractive those ideas are to policymakers.

Just when you thought the Android tablet couldn't get any more competition, here comes Sharp with a pair of tablets called "Galapagos." These tablets are being marketed as e-book readers but will certainly have much more functionality than any Kindle or Nook you've ever seen. The two models will be quite easy to distinguish, one has a 5.5 inch screen while the other has a 10.8 inch screen.
Both of the Galapagos devices will feature LCD displays with some pretty decent resolution. The 5.5 inch model will have a 1024×600 resolution and the 10.8 inch model will weigh in with 1366×800. When first launched, the tablets will ship with WiFi only but there should be a 3G model available not long after launch. Sharp hasn't released the internal specifications for this device, let's hope they don't shoot themselves in the proverbial foot and choose a higher end CPU. Also, no word on which version of Android will be loaded, again, Froyo would be the best move.
As with most tablets, web browsing and document viewing will come with ease but the focus of this device is based heavily on the reading experience. Both Galapagos devices will ship with an e-book store that will have nearly 30,000 titles ready for download. Another mystery is the price! Expect a subsidized cost by the carrier providing 3G service but start saving now just in case.
This time next year, there will likely be many different tablets of all sizes and prices, most (if not all) likely running Android by then the standard should be the Tegra 2, if not its already determined successor, Tegra 3.
This type of market saturation should prove as a large benefit to those who aren't early adopters of the iPad as there will be plenty to choose from.
I have included some videos and photos of the Galapagos for your viewing pleasure. (Note: One video is in Japanese.)

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Even though it was an exciting time in the district from 2003 to 2010, the Gilbert Arenas era was a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs when it came to the wins and losses column.
Having a perennial all-star for the better part of a decade, the oft-injured yet talented point guard formerly known as "Agent Zero" wowed fans with his constant scoring outbursts but also disappointed them with inconsistent play at the same time.
The three-time NBA All-Star led Washington to the playoffs for four consecutive seasons (2004-2008) during his tenure with the Wizards only to be dominated by LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers for three consecutive seasons after the Wizards only advanced in the first round once against the Chicago Bulls in 2005. The Wizards were then swept in the Eastern Conference Semifinals by the Miami Heat.
For the next two seasons, the Wizards were atrocious totaling only 45 wins in both seasons combined.
Despite averaging more than 22 points per game and nearly eight assists per contest during the 2009-2010 campaign, Washington decided to move in another direction before the NBA Draft during the offseason.
Enter John Wall, the former University of Kentucky standout who had the same flair and scoring ability as Arenas enticed new Washington Wizards Majority Owner Ted Leonsis decided to take a chance on the young playmaker.
With the first pick of the 2010 NBA Draft, Leonsis chose Wall hoping that the one-and-done student-athlete could turn his fledgling franchise around as a future star.
However, the wins did not come in a timely fashion for the flashy scorer. Wall showed glimpses of greatness as the game started to slow down for him despite racing down the court each possession with a reckless style of play early on.
He earned First-Team NBA All-Rookie honors, and things seemed to be moving in the right direction even though the Wizards did not make it to the postseason until the 2013-2014 season.
However, with Arenas (20.2 PPG, 5.3 AST, 1.6 STL, 3.9 RPG) and Wall (18.9 PPG, 9.2 AST, 1.7 STL, 4.4 RPG) having similar statistics and individual awards at the same position, a question must be asked: Have the Washington Wizards hit a wall?
Wall, a five-time NBA all-star has led his team to the playoffs four times as well, and the Wizards still have not advanced past the second round including losing to the Toronto Raptors (4-2) this season. Both players are admired for their grit and overly exceptional play, but each guard failed to get their teammates involved in critical situations which have been detrimental to the Wizards' collective success overall. Arenas and Wall were widely regarded as clutch players by their peers and fans alike, but time and time again they made questionable shot selections at critical moments instead of looking for the open man to make a play.
To add insult to injury, Wall underwent knee surgery for the third time in his career in January. Wall suffered nine significant injuries over his career similar to Arenas who dealt with knee issues too. Despite both guards playing in arguably the prime of their respective careers, Washington went to the vault and paid Arenas $111 million in 2009 only for him to be traded to the Orlando Magic the following year for journeyman sharpshooter Rashard Lewis. The injury-riddled Arenas would only play two more seasons in the NBA finishing his final stint for the Memphis Grizzlies averaging just 4.2 points per game in a twelve-year career.
The Wizards rewarded Wall similarly in 2017 after paying Wall $207 million to play until 2023. Wall's financial situation might be certain, but the amount of time that he will healthy and on the floor is debatable, considering his medical history and usage rate. Leonsis has thrown history by the wayside to move forward with Wall despite the team playing well in his absence this past season. Since Wall has entered the league, he has been known for his slashing ability, but never quite achieved a consistent jump shot. As a .786 percent free throw shooter in his career, Wall has heavily relied upon his speed and aggressiveness at getting to the rack and charity stripe for the majority of his points.
However, the 27-year-old point guard's speed should dimish as Father Time will tell if that will affect his performance near the tail end of his career shortly after receiving a max deal as Arenas did in 2009. I am not questioning the ability of both players or their will to win games, but it has been evident over the years that both superstars have traveled a similar path and the future does not look as promising from a team play standpoint. Paying Wall such an exorbitant amount of money as Leonsis did for Arenas could fall apart with any unforeseen injuries. In turn, that could lessen the amount of cap space to bring in a future Hall of Famer such as Kevin Durant who decided not to team up with only Bradley Beal and Wall in search of an NBA championship-caliber squad in 2017. In order to have a shot at winning an NBA championship, the Wizards might want to consider dealing Wall to have some wiggle room in adding more talented players instead of putting all of their eggs in one frail basket which has backfired on the organization already.
Shockingly enough, both players' careers have aligned, and though both are regarded as two of the best point guards in franchise history, Wall's fate could end in a similar fashion.

At this point it's pretty well-known that you can tack a long wire to the Raspberry Pi's GPIO, install some software, and you've got yourself the worlds easiest pirate FM radio station. We say that it's a "pirate" station because, despite being ridiculously easy to do, broadcasting on these frequencies without a license is illegal. Even if you had a license, the Raspberry Pi with a dangling bit of wire will be spewing out all kinds of unintentional noise, making it a no-go for any legitimate purposes.
In an effort to address that issue, [Naich] has written up a couple posts on his blog which not only discuss why the Pi is such a poor transmitter, but shows how you can build a filter to help improve the situation. You'll still be a lawless pirate if you're transmitting on FM stations with your Pi, but you won't be a filthy lawless pirate.
