Get ready for the latest craze in mobile gaming – virtual dating! Hong Kong-based Artificial Life has been developing "Virtual Girlfriend", a new game that is said to be the first cyber-affair application.
Remarkably similar to the Tamagotchi craze of the 1990s, Virtual Girlfriend is a subscription based service that allows you to have, as the name says, a virtual girlfriend with an uncanny resemblance to the real thing. She sleeps at night, eats during the day and does a myriad of things that a real woman would do, such as going to the gym and going out with friends. She is sensitive to important dates such as birthdays and will get upset with you if you forget one. She accepts gifts such as chocolates and jewellery, and more than likely get offended if you save money by offering her cheap gifts. You can talk to her using many different methods such as SMS, and she will send you SMS back and even ring you up to chat. She is capable of talking in six different languages, depending on which country you're playing the game in. The game will also be safe for many audiences as there will be no mention of cyber-sex in Virtual Girlfriend.
Virtual Girlfriend will likely be released in Hong Kong first. With a mobile penetration rate nearing 100 per cent, Hong Kong has the highest concentration of mobile phones in the world. A lot of Hong Kong citizens also don't have time for real relationships, according to a recent survey taken there.
Artificial Life is also developing the sister application to Virtual Girlfriend (or brother application, in this case), called Virtual Boyfriend. Scheduled for release in February 2005, it will likely have a few changes incorporated to reflect boys' different taste for gifts, for example.
Artificial Life is in discussions with major 3G players around the world to have the service introduced to customers by November this year. If all goes well, the game could appear on Three handsets by then.

Inside an American Factory: Films of the Westinghouse Works, 1904
[Detail] Panorama exterior Westinghouse works, 1904.
U.S. History
Inside An American Factory: Westinghouse Works, 1904 contains some of the earliest motion pictures made of industrial work in the United States at the beginning of the twentieth century. The films feature three of the Westinghouse companies and were intended to publicize the workings of their factories, which were considered to be among the most modern and progressive of the period. The Special Presentation " The Westinghouse World: The Companies, the People, and the Places" gives considerable background information about the history of these three companies, the working conditions, the types of projects Westinghouse worked on, and a brief biography of founder George Westinghouse.
The collection features actuality footage (films taken of real events as they happen) of workers performing their various duties in the Air Brake, Machine, and Electric and Manufacturing Companies.
1) Industrial working conditions
The beginning of the twentieth century was a period of industrial expansion in the United States and the Westinghouse factories were considered to be among the most modern factories of their time with the best working conditions. This collection consists almost entirely of films of workers performing their duties in the Westinghouse factories, giving valuable information about work procedures and safety precautions, or lack thereof, at this time.
Search on factories to see how work duties became specialized in industry. See the manual work of Assembling a Generator, the repetitious work of women winding coils for machinery in Coil Winding Machines, or the testing of machinery performance in Testing a Rotary.
2) Role of women in factories
The collection shows the increased role women played in factory work at the turn of the century. Most women performed repetitious assembly tasks, although a few female supervisors can also be glimpsed in some films.
Search on women workers for examples of the work performed by women at the Electric and Manufacturing Company. One example, Girls Taking Time Checks, shows a long procession of women checking in for work, giving some indication of how many were employed at this particular factory and of the uniformity of their appearance.
3) Role of technology and inventions at the beginning of twentieth century
The Westinghouse companies had come into their prime at the beginning of the twentieth century when technological innovations and industry combined to create many advances in electricity, transportation, appliances, and other elements now considered to be part of modern life. The Electric and Manufacturing Company contributed to many high-profile electrical projects, such as the installation of the New York subway system, and products from the Air Brake Company made for improved performance and increased speed on the nation's railways.
Search on words such as generators, turbines, and air-brake to see the manufacture of items that contributed to the performance of electrical systems nationwide and to rapid transportation systems in New York and Chicago.
The films themselves were a result of the invention of the Cooper Hewitt Mercury Vapor Lamp (from a Westinghouse company), which made filming inside a factory possible. This can be most clearly seen in panoramic films such as Panoramic View Aisle B, in which a lamp and camera move over a machinery aisle on an overhead crane, illuminating the machinery and filming it as they go past.
4) Use of motion pictures to advertise companies and their products
The Westinghouse films were produced by the Biograph Company in 1904 and shown to crowds of people in the Westinghouse exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition that year. It is likely that the films were created expressly for this purpose to showcase the companies' operations.
Go to About the Collection for more information on how these films were made and exhibited.
5) The rise of the "company town"
Industrialism increased the control of companies over workers' lives, leading in some instances to what was referred to as a "company town." Wilmerding, Pennsylvania, was such a place, since the Westinghouse Air Brake Company employed so many of its inhabitants. The company built low-cost housing for its workers and even provided Y.M.C.A. facilities, but any periodic declines in company profits also meant a decline in the workers' standard of living.
Go to "Life in Wilmerding, 'The Air Brake City'," a newspaper article from 1904, to read more about life in a company town. View Panorama Exterior Westinghouse Works to see the Westinghouse factories and housing along the railway line.

And the Winners are....
We started these 2 years ago.. just me and Bobbi, as a way to make the miles between us seem a little less painful. For those of you who don't know, we are cousins. We grew up just a few miles from each other.. spent every holiday together growing up and went to the same school.. and in adulthood, we have often joked that we were twins seperated at birth.
We love how quickly the FNSI grew. We know some of you have been with us from the beginning - and we always get first timers too. We appreciated all of you FNSI veterans and newbies!! To show our appreciation we decided to each draw 2 winners this month. Yes - that's a total of 4 winners!! Whaaahooo!!!
One of my local quilt shops donated items for the giveaway this month. The owner gave me all the pattern books below and a charm pack. She's actually the author of the pattern books too. They are filled with some adorable patterns and very useful information. I added a box of Chocolate Chippers. They are chocolate covered potato chips made by a local candy store in the town where Bobbi and I grew up.
So - to get on with the good stuff..
http://sandysshowtellquilts.blogspot.com/ And I know that hardly ever does #1 every win. So I had to do a screen shot just to show you it was real!! lol

State Pension age for women is gradually increasing from 60 to 65. This affects when both men and women can claim Pension Credit and other means-tested benefits for pensioners.
Once state pension age for women has reached 65 in November 2018 there will then be further increases that affect both men and women.
To find out your pension age use the pension age calculator. You can use the calculator to find out the date when you will qualify for the state pension and when you will qualify for Pension Credit. For single women these two dates are the same, but for others the dates may be different.
The minimum age for Pension Credit, and for Housing Benefit/Council Tax Support for people of pension age, is increasing in line with women's state pension age. The minimum age for the state pension for women, and for Pension Credit for men and women, is now over 63 and a half and increasing.
If you are in a couple your eligibility for means-tested benefits is currently determined by the age of the oldest person in the couple. However, please be aware that when Universal Credit is rolled out this rule will be reversed and the age of the youngest member of a couple will determine whether they qualify for Pension Credit. There are no dates available as yet for when this will happen so mixed age couples in full service UC areas can still claim Pension Credit based on the age of the oldest person. For information see Universal Credit and pension age for couples.
As of 6th March 2018 anyone born on or before 5th October 1953 qualifies for pension age benefits (Pension Credit and Housing Benefit/Council Tax Support for people of pension age). Dates for people born after this are below.
Once state pension age for women has reached 65 in November 2018 there will then be a further increase to reach age 66 by October 2020. This increase beyond 65 affects both men and women and is included in the pension age calculator.
The schedule for the increase in men's and women's state pension age is as follows:
Once state pension age for men and women has reached 66 in October 2020 there will then be further increases. Pension age is set to increase from 66 to 67 between 2026 and 2028. Rather than using specific dates for people born within a certain period, people born between 6 April 1960 and 5 March 1961 will reach pension age when they are 66 and the specified number of months below.
A person born on 31st July 1960 is considered to reach the age of 66 years and 4 months on 30th November 2026. A person born on 31st December 1960 is considered to reach the age of 66 years and 9 months on 30th September 2027. A person born on 31st January 1961 is considered to reach the age of 66 years and 10 months on 30th November 2027.
Current law allows for State Pension age for men and women to increase from 67 to 68 between 2044 and 2046 but a government review published 19 July 2017 proposes a new timetable which will see the State Pension age increase to 68 between 2037 and 2039, 7 years earlier than legislated for. The change will affect everyone born between 6 April 1970 and 5 April 1978.
It is likely that further increases in state pension age, to age 70 and beyond, will be announced in the future.

The phrase, beauty pageant, almost invariably refers only to contests for women since similar events for men are called by other names and are more likely to be "body building" contests. History tells us that choosing symbolic kings and queens for certain festivities is an ancient custom in certain parts of the world where beautiful young women are selected as a symbol of their nations' virtues and other abstract ideas.
In beauty contests, efforts have been made to emphasize the different aspects of women and highlight their personal successes during the competitions, as against the earlier claims that the contests were trivial events whose interpretation required no scholarly effort. As is evident today, the organizers have put in their best to give women the opportunity to rise to the top through such contests, whereas pageant participants themselves are made to return to their hometowns to promote community involvement.
Competitions like this, where most women are preferred more than others, it has been found that rather than providing women with opportunities, beauty contests have gone a long way in hurting the prospects of other women who do not fit into the current cultural ideal of beauty, hence these contests are only meant to promote the idea that those who fit this ideal are "better" than those who do not. And some pageants require a swimsuit for a portion of the competition, which emphasizes the physical bodies of women, some claim in undressed state.
Naturally, the body of a woman attracts attention. The face of a pretty woman looms large in the background of any colourful canvas. What people fail to understand today about the word 'Beauty' is that is more than make-up. The pretty face isn't the upshot of diligent external body-care but the product of internal, balanced nutrition that only God through His word can give!
There's a message here for every beauty pageant contestant on the necessity of 'inner beauty' in her walk with God and work for the Saviour. The beauty of the woman is not the creation of make-ups that help conceal wrinkles and blemishes. Nor is it the presence of attractive mien, elegant physique or gorgeous gait. True beauty consists in outward display of virtue and blameless conduct, emanating from a pure heart.
The Scripture doesn't applaud physical beauty as much as it praises Christian perfection created and sustained by the fear of God. In fact, it warns, "Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman that fears the Lord, she shall be praised' (Proverbs 31:30).
In the beginning, when God created the woman, there was no make-up. The first woman, Eve, was created perfectly with good looks and pure charm. For God had ensured that "every thing that He had made...was very good' (Genesis 1:31). And Adam was satisfied to have Eve as his wife, saying, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh..." (Genesis 2:23). Mother Eve was beautiful, no doubt. But her beauty wasn't limited to her physical appearance. Since everything God created was very good, Eve must have been the epitome of virtue - holy, loving, caring, considerate, gentle, meek, kind, wise, prudent, and so forth (Galatians 5:22-23). Eve's heart had no seed or root of sin. She was pure within and holy without, until the devil entered the garden and tempted her. The entry of sin marred the purity of Eve and destroyed her beauty - the ability to live in holiness. Thus, while Eve still appeared beautiful on the outside, her heart had lost its original inclination to holiness; it was then aligned to evil. Eve developed the sin nature; and her real beauty was gone.
Organizers of beauty pageants pretend that they have eventually crowned beauty queens, the name given to the winners of beauty contests, yet what they have just done is to reveal the ruined divine nature of womanhood. Going by what is seen today in such elaborate contests; human beings are only succeeding in mocking themselves by getting dressed in stolen materials. As a beauty queen, you as well as all human beings, were born with the nature of sin, the propensity for rebellion, and the tendency to stray from God's will and way (Psalm 51:5).
The heart you carry is the source of all this iniquity from which proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies, and all other works of the flesh such as uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, reveling, and such things like that. Because the heart is captive to sin, men and women are prone to deviate from God's law in words, thoughts and deeds (Matthew 12:34; Romans 7:19-24).
Now, in beauty pageants, what do people look for in a woman? The answer is clear: they look for the evil parts and get satisfied. It is not all about being able to speak in public; multiculturalism, which is a widely viewed aspect in pageants; or the so-called promotion of self-esteem of the contestants. Having a sense of belonging with other contestants, and the larger pageant community can never fulfill the purpose God has for man. The claim that pageants turned girls into women is not even an issue here. All efforts put up to please God while one still live in sin are not acceptable for salvation. Sin must be conquered, otherwise, there can be no transformation; nor can there be restoration of the Edenic glory.
Beauty queens may align themselves with many clubs to raise money for charities; attend religious and other social functions; become role models for little girls and teens; try to understand and support topical issues; etc., yet these things are mere cosmetics when done in sin. Because human beings couldn't free themselves from the bondage of sin, God, in His mercy and love, stepped in to help us out (John 3:16). The salvation offered by Christ is obtainable only by repentance and faith. To be saved and be made a new creature, you must confess your sins, repent of them and believe on the Lord Jesus as Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9).

Eli's Barbecue, Riverside, Cincinnati, OHPosted: October 9, 2017 Filed under: bbq, Cincinnati, OH, recommended, ribs, Uncategorized | Tags: bbq, Cincinnati, Eli's Barbecue, recommended Leave a comment
I had the good fortune of eating at Eli's on Riverside today, and was not disappointed. The menu is not fussy and the food is good. The basics are pulled pork and sliced turkey sandwiches, ribs, and hotdogs. The hotdogs struck me as weird then I reminded myself, we're in Cincinnati, however they are serving all beef hotdogs which to me is a touch of blasphemy in Porkopolis.
The pulled pork came with a splash of their one and only sauce, a reasonably thick red with a gentle kick. What we liked about the pork and the ribs is that neither was overly sugar coated. The pork was peppery, but not biting with cayenne or black, I presume the majority was white pepper. Whatever the mix, it is good.
The ribs had a unique flavor. I kind of think it's poultry seasoning, or at least a healthy dose of thyme and sage. They are dry rubbed and super tender; we highly recommend the ribs and pork, though no one tried the turkey.
I and my son give the beans 2 thumbs up. They are fully savory and the cumin is a defining spice. We highly recommend them. The slaw was good, I've had better and I've had worse, again not heavy on the sugar which I appreciate, but certainly creamy and crunchy. The macaroni and cheese was not my jam, as my son likes to say these days. It seems some joints want to try to make a nostalgic take on, with their own twist, of Stouffer's mac and cheese, but they should all stop and just make good mac and cheese. This tasted like it had a sharp white cheddar, but had that gooey, starchy consistency of underwhelming freezer aisle mac. I say pass, unless of course, that is your jam. Wish I had tasted the jalapeno cheese grits instead. Mashed potatoes are also on the menu. I didn't even consider them, never seen such a thing at a bbq restaurant. I fund that offering a bit odd.
The atmosphere is good, lots of drawings on the wall, of local Cincinnati celebrities and sports folks, among others, and Star Wars characters. Some antiques in the window and a record player spinning LPs. Today it was bluegrass covers of Metallica, but there was a bin full of records for staff to play. There is a small inside dining room and a lot of picnic tables outside under a roof. We would definitely mane return trips to Eli's. They have 4 locations, I recommend you try one.

Call me Mark. I'm a professor at Ohio State, which has one of the best military programs in the country and, consequently, a special responsibility to the field--especially in a time like ours.
Not quite a year ago I began keeping a blog on my regular web site. Kind of an unorthodox blog--not really organized the way most blogs are and more graphics-intensive than most. It was and remains devoted to assessing the state of academic military history and figuring out new ways to conceptualize it. Having been at it for months now, I've discovered two things. First, I like blogging. Second, doing it the way I was doing it ate up a lot of time. I'm wondering if I can't save some time--and maybe expand the blog's usefulness--by giving it a new home. Namely this one.
I called the original blog Interrogating the Project of Military History. I figured something a little less academic-sounding might be better here. I thought of going with "War Child," because I feel as if I've been studying war since I was a toddler, but that blog title's taken (which may be just as well). I went with War Historian for obvious reasons and because I didn't want to stare at the screen all night trying to think of a better title. I figure this blog stands or falls on the basis of its content, not its name.
Anyway, check out the old site--with three links to it in as many paragraphs, I've made this as convenient as possible.

Golf has its new king and he comes in the form of a floppy-haired, Irish, 22-year-old, who can flat out play.
With Rory McIlroy's victory at the Honda Classic, which pushed him over the top to No. 1 in the World Rankings, golf now has a dynamic poster boy, who can perhaps help our withdrawal from Tigermania.
While Tiger reminded the world of his brilliance with a scintillating 8-under, 62 on the final day, it was Rory who dominated the tournament on every other level.
Hopefully Tiger continues to improve and give Rory a strong rival because it would be great for golf. Rory is taking a somewhat measured view of his number one ranking. At the media conference after the Honda Classic, he was asked, "How long do you think you can stay here?"
He answered: "I don't know, I mean, it depends on how I play. I mean, hopefully I can stay here but it depends on how others play. It really is‑‑ you don't‑‑ I'd like to stay there for a while. I'm not sure how far above Luke I go now or what the point difference is, but as long as I keep playing good golf and have chances to win tournaments, then hopefully I'll stay up there."
Unless Tiger turns into a Vijay Singh, who won big-time and played fabulous golf in his 40s, it looks like the next ten years will be the "Decade of Rory".
Let's raise a toast to watching some phenomenal golf by this exceptional young Irishmen. If Tiger, Phil and others can give him some serious competition, we're in for some fantastic golf viewing in the near future.

The T-shirts for sale at the register first captured Dr. Dan Robinson's attention at the sweetFrog yogurt shop. The bright colors and cartoon frog drew his eye, but the message on the shirt piqued his interest. The "frog" in the company name is an acronym for "fully rely on God." The shirts bear the slogan and cite John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life."
Robinson, a practicing physician with no restaurant experience, said he felt moved by the Holy Spirit to open his own sweetFrog franchise. Once he discovered that all sweetFrog shops host fundraisers for church groups, schools and charities, he felt certain it was a calling from God. Within six months, he had opened his first sweetFrog in Maryland.
Relying on God and helping their neighbor has made good business for sweetFrog. The company, founded in 2009, is now the nation's second largest frozen yogurt chain with 350 locations in 25 states.
Robinson, who now owns four additional sweetFrog franchises in California, said his focus has been on giving back to the community. Together, Robinson's five stores raise between $40,000 to $60,000 for local charities annually.
The way Christian-led companies express faith varies greatly. Some, like sweetFrog, proclaim their faith openly. They may feature God in mission statements or reference Scripture on their product or its packaging.
In-N-Out Burger prints Bible citations on its cardboard cups, containers and wrappers. Former In-N-Out President Rich Snyder started the practice in the 1980s. "They are small because he wanted to express his faith without imposing it on others," said Carl Van Fleet, the chain's current vice president.
Similarly, fashion retailer Forever21 prints "John 3:16" on the bottom of all their shopping bags.
ServiceMaster — owner of brands including Terminix, Merry Maids and American Home Shield — states on their website that their foundational commitment is to "honor God in all we do."
Interstate Batteries, marketer of car batteries, has a similar mission statement, to "glorify God as we supply our customers worldwide with top quality, value-priced batteries." Chairman Norm Miller even put his personal testimony on the company website.
Business leaders from faith-based companies told Our Sunday Visitor that honoring the Lord through their work changes the way they approach business decisions. They seek to do business honestly and make high-quality products. They donate to charity. They care about their customers and their employees, recognizing that each individual is a unique creation of God.
"You don't have to sell your soul to make your numbers. Nor do you have to give up good sound business practices to allow your values to participate in even the smallest, most pragmatic business transactions," wrote Tom Chappell, founder of Tom's of Maine, in his book "The Soul of a Business: Managing for Profit and the Common Good."
Chappell, an Episcopalian with a degree from Harvard Divinity School, sought to run his company in a way that respected his customers, his employees, his community and the environment. His faith inspired these values, but Tom's of Maine has never been a Christian company. Instead, Chappell's company followed a set of values that could be understood by anyone from any faith — or no faith at all.
In 1974, Tom's of Maine became the first company to market toothpaste that was made wholly from natural ingredients. The company later introduced other natural personal care products. Product packaging was made of 90 percent post-consumer paper. The company donated 10 percent of all profits to charity and allowed employees to use 5 percent of their time on the clock for volunteer work.
Chappell said employees were grateful to work for a company that gave them the chance to serve their community alongside coworkers.
"They come back different," he said. "They are ready to get back to work with a new energy and focus."
Tyson Foods is another company that, while not Christian, seeks to be faith-friendly. In 2000, the company started a chaplaincy program. Currently, 90 chaplains provide "compassionate pastoral care to team members and their families," according to Tyson representative Caroline Ahn.
"Tyson Foods recognizes that faith is an important part of life for many of their employees," she added.
Working for a company that takes its faith to the heart of its business comes with many benefits, according to Stephen Henley, executive director at Legatus, an organization for Catholic business leaders.
Faith-based companies should provide a decent wage, reasonable hours and good benefits, including paid maternity and paternity leave. They should celebrate employee milestones, including professional and personal accomplishments, he said. Supporting employees and their families is the right thing to do, but it also benefits the company. When employees feel valued, the entire work environment becomes more positive. Staff members work together as a team. Job turnover is low, Henley added.
"When you have people invested — they're happy and their families are happy — then you can count on that individual to be very effective and efficient at their job," he said.
Two major Christian companies — Hobby Lobby and Chick-fil-A — are known for closing their doors every Sunday. Since Sunday is a major shopping day, it would logically follow that any business closed on that day cannot compete with other stores.
Chick-fil-A ranks eighth in nationwide sales for fast food chains. But the restaurant ranks first in sales per store. In 2015, the average sales per location were $3.9 million. That is 56 percent more than McDonald's stores, which averaged $2.5 million the same year. McDonald's restaurants are open seven days a week, and some locations stay open 24 hours a day. Chick-fil-A also ranks first in customer satisfaction, according to the American Customer Satisfaction Index Restaurant Report 2016.
When Hobby Lobby decided not to do business on Sunday, sales dropped significantly. The nationwide craft store chain's most profitable hours of the week had been on Sundays. But customers adjusted to the change. Sales rebounded and have remained healthy, according to company communication coordinator Bob Miller.
Hobby Lobby stores also close at 8 p.m. daily in order to allow all employees who are parents to see their children before bedtime. The company pays their workers twice the federal minimum wage, donates half their pre-tax profits to charities and has chaplains on the payroll.
"Every aspect of the business is evaluated on whether it is honoring to the Lord," said Miller, adding that the Green family, who runs the chain, sees themselves as stewards rather than owners of the company. "They would much rather risk losing business than compromise biblical principles."
Those principles include not paying for contraceptives that can prevent implantation of embryos. Hobby Lobby challenged the federal contraceptive mandate and won a U.S. Supreme Court case in 2014. For the first time, the court recognized a for-profit corporation's claim of religious belief.
Miller said that since the ruling, "Hobby Lobby has continued with business as usual, with the owners grateful to be able to continue honoring the Lord in all they do."
Christine M. Williams writes from Massachusetts.

"The Majestic" shoot update, L.A.11 Jun 2001
by Dana
(JCO Editor)
Film works for "The Majestic" are slowly reaching the finish line.
On June 20, the Warner Hollywood Studios will be the location of choice for another few takes. The sister studio to Burbank's Warner Bros Studio saw the light of day as early as 1920, when Hampton Studios needed to expand their growing business. It was later renamed into Pickford-Fairbanks Studios when owners Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks created movie classics such as "Robin Hood" there. In the 1950's, the studios became the Samuel Goldwyn Studios. Since 1980 it's the Warner Hollywood Studios with 7 sound stages and mainly used for filming TV series.
The Studios' East door at N. Formosa Ave could well be the background for the scene in which Pete leaves the HHS's studios to drown his sorrows at the (Formosa) Cafe across the street. (However, this is merely a JCO speculation.)
Also a night shoot is scheduled for June 20 at the Griffith Park, namely at Vista del Valle Dr., located East of the famous Hollywood sign.
Additionally, filming has been extended from June 10 to June 11 at two other locations, one of them L.A.'s Union Station.
Production is set to wrap on June 22nd now.

What is amortization and how could it affect my auto loan?
Amortization describes the process of gradually paying off your auto loan. In an amortizing loan, for each of your monthly payments, a portion is applied towards the amount of the loan – the principal – and a portion of the payment is applied towards paying the finance charge – the interest.
A greater percentage of your monthly payment is applied to interest early in the life of the loan, and a greater percentage is applied to the principal at the end. Thus, the principal balance decreases slowly at first and more quickly closer to the end of the loan term.

Everything Is Okay
Not headlong, not down with fate
nor hurtling in great metal hulks toward
obvious end or even sideways oblivion,
not in denial.
Everything is fine.
Today, we're aspiring chicks
under the warming lamp
of an orderly something, call it
nuclear-atomic, breathing still.

When problems develop with the roof on your property and you contact a local commercial roofer, you need to be confident that they have the skills and knowledge to assess what's wrong and take appropriate corrective measures. The statements a roofer makes can be telltale signs that you should keep looking for a more qualified professional, and here are three good examples:
I Can Have Your Roof Inspection Done in Less Than an Hour
Any roofing contractor who tells you they can complete a commercial roof inspection this quickly isn't doing the kind of assessment that's necessary to find subtle wear and damage. What you need is a roofer who'll take the time to do a thorough inspection that covers:
- An in-depth visual check of the roof field, drainage system and flashed areas including the perimeter, equipment installations, expansion joints and all penetrations.
- Taking core samples to learn your roof's composition, then replacing/properly sealing the extraction sites.
- Completing an infrared scan to pinpoint suspected leakage points and areas of wet insulation.
- Furnishing you with an inspection report that documents any deficiencies and provides recommendations and cost estimates for necessary repairs.
You Need to Replace Your Roof Immediately
If you call in a contractor because the roof on your commercial property is leaking and you're told it needs immediate replacement, beware. Even in an emergency when a storm has caused considerable damage, a reputable commercial roofer won't use this type of scare tactic to get you to make a hasty decision about replacement. Instead, a reliable contractor will take appropriate measures to contain any leaks, then perform a thorough inspection. If it's determined that the roof needs replacement, they'll advise you on your options and give you time to make an informed decision.
I've Never Worked With Your Type of Roof System, But I'll Try to Repair It
When a contractor tells you they'll try to repair your roof even though they're unfamiliar with your particular material and system, find another roofer who is fully qualified. There are various types of commercial roof systems, and the methods for making sound repairs aren't interchangeable. If a roofer uses the wrong materials or techniques, the repair isn't likely to last and can even cause more damage and make the problem worse.
When you need the services of a skilled and experienced commercial roofer in the Wappingers Falls area, contact us at Vanguard Roofing.

I think you might have the wrong link somewhere. We haven't done an amazing race activity - but it sounds like a ton of fun!!
I've been getting so many spam comments lately, I've decided to disable "anonymous commenting" for a while. Sorry for any difficulty!

Tracking the Twitter activity of law-abiding citizens was part of the Pennsylvania Office of Homeland Security's intelligence surveillance program.
According to internal Homeland Security e-mails produced through a Right-To-Know request, one of the targets of such surveillance was the Berks Peace Community, a 50-year-old group of Quaker-affiliated senior citizens. They gather on the Penn Street Bridge in Reading every Friday and quietly hold signs questioning America's "war habit."
The e-mails also indicate that monitoring the tweets of law-abiding citizens was "part of the intelligence effort that is conducted daily... on behalf of the PA Office of Homeland Security."
Those were the words of Mark Perelman, co-founder of the Institute of Terrorism Research and Response, the contractor hired by Homeland Security to provide intelligence for the state.
Maria Finn, spokesman for the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency, which oversees Homeland Security, said she was not familiar with the specific e-mails. But she said monitoring Twitter might not be that unusual, given her experience with the G-20 summit on the global economy last year in Pittsburgh.
"Law enforcement monitored Twitter accounts during the G-20 to get certain types of information because it is public access," Finn said. "It is not private information."
Finn said the Twitter monitoring allowed police to know what was happening on the ground and gave them better "situational awareness."
The Homeland Security e-mails — most of them administrative or relating to issues already reported — offer a few brief glimpses into the depth and scope of monitoring.
On June 3, former Homeland Security Director Powers e-mailed an ITRR "alert" to Reading Chief of Police William Heim of a protest planned on the Penn Street Bridge the following day.
Apparently, ITRR had become aware of the planned demonstration because it was posted on the website of Act Now To Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER), an anti-war group started by former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark.
Powers' e-mail to Heim was not part of the regular distribution of Intelligence Bulletins, but rather a person-to-person alert of planned activity.
Heim said it was "the first and only e-mail like that I got."
And it had his attention.
Heim e-mailed Powers to ask for more information.
He noted, "We regularly have anti-war demonstrators on the Penn Street Bridge holding signs and getting motorists to beeping their horns but they have not caused a problem and have not attempted to block the street or traffic in any way."
Heim told The Patriot-News, "My concern was, is this something different?"
Powers responded that ITRR would be contacting the chief.
At 1:59 p.m. Perelman e-mailed Heim with an offer to provide "a briefing."
After the conversation, Perelman e-mailed Heim to say, "As promised, we will monitor Twitter for any tactical information that can be identified before, during, and immediately after the 5 p.m. demonstration."
Perelman added, "Because that monitoring activity will be part of the intelligence effort that is conducted daily by our organization on behalf of the PA Office of Homeland Security, there is no charge to the Reading PD."
That statement throws into high relief the multiple references to "monitoring" of various groups in the Homeland Security bulletins.
Heim said: "I appreciated the heads-up. ... The last thing we want is to have something happen that's large in scope and be totally unprepared for it."
Before the demonstration, Heim did some research of his own, the old-fashioned way: He called the people who usually protest on the bridge.
At 3:48, he e-mailed Powers: "There is a local woman, Dorothy Reilly, who is a bit more radical than the local group, and is the one who got the demonstration posted on ANSWER. We can expect 30-40 people on the Penn Street Bridge, unless it is hot and less will show. They are demonstrating against the recent Israeli action involving the ship barricade."
Heim requested a patrol to drive by the next day to make sure everything was normal.
In the end, it was a typical crowd.
And there weren't any tweets, either. The people protesting — most in their 60s or older — don't use Twitter.
"I am on Facebook — that's enough technology for me," the 62-year-old Reilly said.
John Hoskyns-Abrahall, the 65-year-old spokesman for the Berks Peace Community, explained that the group has stood on the Penn Street Bridge every Friday for more than four years "to remind people we are still at war ... it costs a lot of money and a lot of lives. That's really all it is. We don't shout. We're just a presence. ... It's more of a vigil than a demonstration."
As for the scrutiny from ITRR, he said, "If that's the best they can do, that is truly pathetic ... more than pathetic — it's downright un-American, might I say. It represents exactly the worst things we want to put behind us."
Reilly howled with laughter when she was told of the e-mails.
She's the head of Democracy In Action, which she said is "more political" than the Berks Peace Community, but joins them on occasion.
"Doing what I do and as long as I have, it's not a surprise," she said.
Perelman eventually e-mailed the Reading police chief to tell him: "We placed our best Twitter researcher on the task. ... She was unable to locate any planned communications for the protest. That fact is significant. Our inability to locate a communications network indicates that probably none exists (we're pretty good at locating them if/when they exist)."
He added: "Informed knowledge of the anarchist movement would indicate that there is potential that the name ANSWER is enough to bring outside aggressive anarchists to the protest. ITRR has no intelligence to indicate either way. As discussed yesterday, if they come they will most likely act in a lone-wolf/small cell capacity outside the perimeter of free speech activity."
When Reilly heard that, she said, "I feel like I'm living down Alice's hole or in a Dali painting."
The e-mails were produced by a Right-To-Know request from Scott Davis, who was mentioned by name in the Intelligence Bulletins because of his website PARevolution.com, where he has now posted copies of the e-mails.

On 7 February 2018, Luxembourg Minister of Sustainable Development and Infrastructure François Bausch met with the Road Accident Victims Association (AVR).
Following the request of the AVR, the minister François Bausch last week received the association's president Raymond Schintgen, as well as five members of the board of directors and the team, in the presence of the director of the Road Safety ASBL, Isabelle Medinger.
During the meeting, AVR officials asked the department for an inventory of the removal of isolated or dangerous trees and the installation of additional barriers along national roads. They also discussed the subject of radars and red light studies, which are currently underway and are likely to be completed by the end of the year.
In addition, the association requested the establishment of an awareness campaign focused on the often underestimated issue of minor and even serious injuries, possibly in the form of witness testimonies. François Bausch proposed to launch this campaign at the beginning of July 2018.
Finally, at the request of the AVR, the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Infrastructure will initiate the implementation of a Road Safety Pact with the municipalities.

Coritiba, which virtually secured its return to the prime league, now thinks of how to keep its best players. The fullback Henrique has been sounded by Udinese, midfielder Pedro Ken and forward Keirrison have been watched by Vitoria Guimaraes and wanted by Sao Paulo. The only star they have a chance to keep is 18-year midfielder Marlos, who has not become an undoubtful titular yet.

|Soft twist Crochet hat (left side), (pattern by naztazia.com). I altered my hat from the pattern in how I seamed it, adding just one large pom pom on top and three buttons on the side for decoration. On sale in my Etsy shop.
|Soft twist Crochet Hat (right side), I love the yarn I used for this pattern which was Caron Cakes. The yarn gradually changes colors creating a unique design in the end.
|Knitted Cap, (pattern by Wool and the Gang) my first real finished item with knitting needles. I topped the hat with a pom pom of course! And I knitted the hat with two strands as one to make it a bit thicker.
|I used Joann's "Big Twist" yarn for the hat. I love the softness of its texture.
|Loom Knitted Garter Stitch Hat. I haven't abandoned my looms, so when I was in between these other projects, I worked on this hat. No pattern was followed. I just knitted every round until it was done. On sale in my Etsy shop.
|You know me, no hat is quite complete without a pretty, fluffy pom pom!
|Crochet Mobius Wrap (pattern by Naztazia.com), front view. I love this easy pattern. I made this one for myself size L/XL. The yarn I used was again Caron Cakes. I was able to make this wrap + the cap with just one skein of that yarn. Soft too!
|It's long enough to wear as a hoodie too.
|And, if I want to wear it as an infinity scarf, that's possible too!
|Also it can be wrapped around twice to wear as an infinity cowl.
|Chunky Knitted Cowl. This was a quick knit project! Made from Loops & Threads Chunky Luxe yarn and with some really big knitting needles! I took a close-up so you can really see how large the stitches are! On sale in my Etsy shop.
I didn't do as many projects this month as I typically do and that's because I'm trying to listen to my body more and not overdo it. I'm really happy to finish items rather than have a bunch of open projects that sometimes remain unfinished.
Projects I'm working on now are my checkboard knitted blanket (once I buy more yarn), a knitted super scarf and another knit scarf that I'm almost finished with. Also, I'm crocheting more mobius wraps in different colorways so can't wait to show you those once I'm done!
Until next time... chao!

We are touched by Scarlett's Hope
Photography by Tami Proffitt
Newlyweds, Annie and Ryan Landefeld, were delighted to discover they were expecting a baby just weeks after sharing their marriage vows in September.
On June 20, 2009, they welcomed a healthy, beautiful baby girl, Scarlett Rose, into the world. Scarlett passed all newborn screenings with flying colors. Beginning around 10 weeks of age, they noticed that Scarlett wasn¹t moving her legs, arms and head as much. She appeared to be floppy. They knew that something wasn¹t right so they decided to seek the help of a Neurologist. On September 11th, after extensive medical testing, they were given a devastating diagnosis of SMA Type 1 (www.fsma.org), which stands for Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
SMA is the leading genetic killer of infants. It is a rare, genetic disease affecting part of the nervous system that controls voluntary muscle movement due to the loss of nerves in the spinal cord. One in 6,000 babies is born with SMA, and 1 in 40 people are carriers. Ryan and Annie are both carriers and unknowingly passed their copies on to Scarlett.
Scarlett will never be able to walk, stand, sit, eat, breathe and even swallow without assistance. All of her muscles are extremely weak, with the weakest muscles being the legs, upper arms and neck. Her mind and spirit are no different from that of a healthy baby. She has a bright, expressive face and eyes.
Scarlett faces a difficult battle and requires extensive medical support.
Care interventions have been established to help with breathing and feeding problems, muscle weakness, bouts of illness, and discomfort. They are consulting with doctors and pursuing any treatment that might save their baby girl.
3oclockclub: Las Vegas will be donating $1 of each transaction to Baby Scarlett for this month. To read more about the Landefeld's and their quest, go to http://scarlettshope.com/. For more information on SMA, please visit the Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy at www.fsma.org.

- All the Right Details!
Likes: It fits really well, with a lot of length in the sleeves, one place that often is short on me, and the adjustments on the cuff really help. The hood cinches really nicely, without channeling the rain towards my face, and I can cinch it so that the chin guard covers most of my face without cutting off my field of vision. The seams are really nicely taped, the pockets are set high enough that I can use them even when the pack is on, and hiding the hip belt under the flaps is genius, I'll love the extra ventilation from that! There's this little other detail that I love as well, in that the inside placket of the zipper has been folded back on itself and tacked down in spots, giving it this channel that will direct water that might get through, to go down instead of into my clothing. What's more, is that they also built this channel into the side hip flaps, where I think it's going to make a lot of difference on how wet I'll get. The inside of the jacket has a textured finish that should keep me from feeling too clammy. The jacket is also a little longer than expected, it comes down to my fingertips in front and a little more in back, so it will definitely keep the rain off where I need it to. It also weighed less than it said, it came in at 8.9ounces on my scale, or 251 grams.Water beads off nicely, and it didn't wet out in the ten minute shower I gave it, will have to see how it does in longer rains. Nicely done Sierra Designs!
Dislikes: Not a huge dislike, as it would add weight, but I did try to fit the jacket into one of its own pocket, and the jacket is just too long to fit. I'm okay with that.

One thing we often find is the business owners and company directors are well aware exactly who the target market is, and can easily break it down into segments.
However the number of websites that we see, that are obviously aimed at women, fashion websites, clothing etc. and yet are written more or less exclusively by male writers. Not only this but, the website will be black or grey and the content will concentrate on facts as opposed to relationship building. Click here for using the correct tone and language.
"Women Write About Family, Men Write About War" Is more than just a catchy title, it actually makes a valid point that there is a difference on delivering a message to a female audience than a male audience.
There is also a difference in tone and voice when dealing with 50+ individuals or with communicating with the 25 and unders market.
Whilst Google favours a more conversational tone see XYZ, it does not follow that selling large ticket items, or services that deliver within a new customers property will appreciate blog style conversational content.
It would be a mistake for example to be too informal to the point the user no longer takes your services or products seriously.

This was actually a really hard topic for me. Because it wasn't limited to romantic affection. There are so many great moments of affection in YA--between parents and children, siblings, friends, lovers, etc. But in the end, my favorite was a romantic one.
Will put his hand on hers. A new mood had taken hold of him, and he felt resolute and peaceful. Knowing exactly what he was doing and exactly what it would mean, he moved his hand from Lyra's wrist and stroked the red-gold fur of her daemon.Lyra gasped. But her surprise was mixed with a pleasure so like the joy that flooded through her when she had put the fruit to his lips that she couldn't protest, because she was breathless. With a racing heart she responded in the same way: she put her hand on the silky warmth of Will's daemon, and as her fingers tightened in the fur, she knew that Will was feeling exactly what she was.And she knew, too, that neither daemon would change now, having felt a lover's hands on them. These were their shapes for life: they would want no other.So, wondering whether any lovers before them had made this blissful discovery, they lay together as the earth turned slowly and the moon and stars blazed above them.

New details on the Rafale M deployement to Afghanistan
Le Mamouth" reveals some new technical details about the Rafale tour of duty in the Indian ocean for the next months :
The airwing will be made of 10 Rafale M F3, 12 Sem and 2 Hawkeye (+ the usual helicopter fleet).
The Rafale will have 2 Reco-NG pods (provided by the french Air Force) for recce missions. This pod has just entered into operational service and will be used for the first time in a war zone. All the facilities necessary to operate this pod were installed in The Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier in 2008. One of the most visible modification is the large antenna fitted at the back of the ship allowing inflight transmissions with the pod.
The Rover capability is also confirmed and should boost the CAS efficiency of the fighter jets with coalition TIC (Troops in Contact)
After this mission, the CdG will sail to the EAU for the "Big Fox" exercice in February 2011.
