Not A Four Leaf Clover...
Shamrock is not a four leaf clover
The four leaf clover, commonly mistaken to the be shamrock, is a much rarer clover occurring in nature. It has been estimated that there are approximately 10,000 three-leaf clovers for every four-leaf clover. Though they are both considered good luck symbols, a four leaf clover and a shamrock are not the same thing. 4-leaf clover is very rare. It is powerful and particularly magical. According to legend of western cultures, each of the four leaf clovers represent one theme. The first leaf is for hope, the second is for faith, the third is for love, and the fourth is for luck. A Shamrock or three leaf clover is very common, and can be found just about everywhere.
In Ireland clover has long been considered lucky. The three leaf clover or shamrock is mainly an Irish Christian symbol of the Holy Trinity. It is commonly believed that St. Patrick use the three leaf clover to teach the Irish people about Christianity. Each leaf stands for – The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. If the fourth leaf is found. It is considered to bring God's Grace
Many myths are associated with four leaf clovers. It is lucky to find a four-leaf clover. When Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden, legend has it that Eve was holding a four leaf clover. It is also believed that the person who finds this lucky four leaf clover will meet their future lover on that same day. If the clover is given to another person immediately after finding it, the finder's luck will double.
Four leaf clover has become one of the most well known lucky charm and good luck symbol around the world and across many very different cultures.

amazing :)
up to 9 4LC now, I found 6 four leaf clover today. Number 5 was not lucky for my old blind dog. looked down and found my 5th and 6st, while plucking my good fortune my dog wondered on top of a retaining wall. I ran torward her as she stepped off the wall falling 3 feet to the pavement. She is OK
I found 2, 4 leaf clover today and 1 last week. I've looked from time to time for years but never found any before this past week. I've prayed for family reunion and asked to find a four leaf clover for a sign of hope. It's either answer to prayer or it's cause my old blind dog walks so slow all I have to do is count clover leaves on our long walks, by long I don't mean distance.
This is fun and informative.
4 leaf... good luck is all it matters
3 leaf or 4 leaf... good luck is all it matters

It's `Gorgeous' and Very Wicked / Comedy skewers beauty pageants
DROP DEAD GORGEOUS: Satire. Starring Kirstie Alley, Ellen Barkin, Kirsten Dunst, Denise Richards and Allison Janney. Directed by Michael Patrick Jann. Written by Lona Williams. (PG-13. 95 minutes. At the Metro, Century Plaza and AMC 1000.)
Anyone who's cringed at the phony pieties of beauty pageants or wondered what the contestants really are thinking behind those glossy, vacuous smiles will get a taste of sweet revenge from this deft skewering of a bogus institution. "Gorgeous" has claws, and manages to stick them in all the right places.
Directed by first-time filmmaker Mi chael Patrick Jann and written by Lona Williams, a onetime beauty contestant, "Drop Dead Gorgeous" stars Kirstie Alley and Ellen Barkin as ambitious mothers of competing teen princesses.
Alley, a Junior League type who lives in a perfect colonial-style house, is a former contest winner who champions Becky (Denise Richards), her gorgeous, shapely, lethal-at-the-center daughter.
Barkin, a trailer-court tramp who's never without her cigarette and can of Coors, bets her chips on baby Amber (Kirsten Dunst), a mortician's assistant who paints corpses while practicing tap dance routines.
Not unlike "Election," the recent comedy about Midwestern high-school politics and hypocrisy, "Drop Dead Gorgeous" spares no one in its cheerfully vicious path. Jann, a gifted satirist, keeps "Gorgeous" moving at a brisk pace and pulls off stunts and jokes that could've been cruel under another director's watch.
It's Williams' script, though, that sells the film. Mount Rose, Minn., the town where the pageant takes place, is the kind of place where girls build character by joining the Lutheran Sisterhood Gun Club and the women who run the beauty pageant chirp "Yeah, you betcha!" a lot (think Frances McDormand in "Fargo," then multiply).
The mayor of Mount Rose is a semiliterate windbag. The reigning Miss Teen Princess America is a deluded anorectic. And the pageant judges include an overweight bumpkin, his mentally challenged brother and a semi-cryptic pervert. The town's welcoming billboard announces "Home of the World's Oldest Living Lutheran."
And that's only for starters. "Drop Dead Gorgeous" pushes all kinds of hot buttons and goes out on a limb when Alley's daughter enters the pageant's talent competition, singing "You're Just Too Good to Be True" to a familiar religious icon.
The actors have a ball with this stuff, particularly Barkin and Allison Janney, who plays her best friend and fellow man-chasing party chick. These gals drink, smoke and sleep around too much, but they have such fierce love for Barkin's daughter -- and take such unbridled enjoyment in life -- that they emerge as the movie's most lovable characters.
"Drop Dead Gorgeous" runs out of steam when the local pageant winner is announced and the setting moves to the statewide competition. Keeping a rhythm going for more than an hour is difficult with this kind of scattershot style, and the mockumentary premise starts to feel a bit thin.
All the actors do good work. Richards and Dunst are terrific as the evil and virtuous competitors, and the large cast includes Nora Dunn and Mo Gaffney as statewide pageant coordinators, Mindy Sterling (Frau Farbissina in "Austin Powers") as Alley's tight-laced assistant and Adam West as himself.

Small-claims courts in North Carolina handle civil matters, with the main relief sought being monetary damages. The plaintiff in a small-claims case in the state can seek an amount no greater than $5,000. Slander is a legal cause of action brought against a defendant who made a verbal defamatory statement that damaged the plaintiff's reputation.
Prepare a complaint against the defendant. The state's small-claims court provides plaintiffs with forms to satisfy this requirement. A link to obtain a form has been added in the resources section below.
Bring the completed complaint to small-claims court in the county where the defendant resides and present it to the court clerk. The clerk will issue you a summons if the complaint is in order. Completion of this step constitutes filing a claim in small-claims court.
Serve the summons and complaint on the defendant. In addition to filing the complaint, you must serve the defendant with a copy of the complaint and the summons obtained in Step 2. Failure to do this will result in your case being dismissed and you will have to start the process again.

runaway dish presents: Smoked Screen 11.11.13
On a perfect night in November 2013 Runaway Dish took over Johnson's Boucaniere in downtown Lafayette for our third dinner, "Smoked Screen." The theme reflected our charity for the night, Southern Screen Film Festival (southernscreen.org), and the chefs', Manny Augello (Bread & Circus) and Greg Walls (Johnson's Boucaniere), affinity for smoked and cured meat. As guests arrived they were treated to a smoked apple cider cocktail prepared by Ashley Duran (Saint Street Inn) and were invited to watch "Pride and Joy," a Southern Foodways Alliance documentary. Dinner was served on the porch of Johnson's with music provided by the awesome Johanna Divine with her friends Daniel Coolik and Dirk Powell. Check out the complete menu at the end of the post.

Las Vegas, NV
Created in celebration of the legacy of Paul Revere
Revere Golf Club was created in celebration of the legacy of Paul Revere. Upon arrival at The Revere, you will find that we have themed our facility to create a one of a kind golf experience that will both educate and inspire our guests. With this in mind, we strive to offer our guests with "A Revolutionary Las Vegas Golf Experience."
Our 23,000 square foot clubhouse overlooking Las Vegas, features a unique golf shop experience, Buckman's Grille, a full service restaurant and bar, banquet facilities, and unmatched views of the Las Vegas Valley. The entire north side of the clubhouse is floor to ceiling glass. From our restaurant and private banquet rooms, you will find a spectacular view of the entire Las Vegas Valley and the Las Vegas Strip.
Our first 18-hole championship Revere golf course, The Lexington, opened on April 17, 1999. (The same night Paul Revere made his famous ride). Our second 18-hole championship golf course, The Concord, opened June 1, 2002. On the night of his famous ride, Paul Revere began in the town of Lexington and rode on to Concord. Just as we began our journeys with our first 18-holes, we have dubbed our current golf course "The Lexington" and as we continue our journeys, our new golf course is "The Concord".

My name is Carley and I am a colouring in addict. Ok well maybe not that bad, yet. But since starting some adult colouring in on the weekend I have been (pardon the pun) drawn in by the therapeutic nature of it. I was pretty stressed out on Sunday morning but after colouring for a few hours I totally chilled out. Best part is it's free and I'm not online (yep my digital habit getting bad again) plus its encouraging Ella to sit down for a little bit longer each time to join in (on her own paper of course!).
So I am loving the pro's to this new hobby, except when the sun goes down, its too hard to colour in with dark shadows cast by harsh lights (first world problems I know). Anyway I got to thinking and I realised I could design a few colouring in pages myself using some of my old digital scrapbooking designs.
So last night while there was nothing interesting to watch on TV I got to creating and designed these two pages incorporating some journalling space into them (which I also love). I have been hanging out all day to get them uploaded so I could share them with you. I have already started one of them myself. I hope you like them as much as I do! I already have some other ideas in mind to make more pages so stay tuned for more in the next few weeks.
You can download the pages here.
Enjoy! :-)

One of the people I follow on Social Media had a nice piece of writing in which he used the metaphor of juggling for teaching. The article is in Dutch (too bad, as it is very interesting, and the word itself jongleren is already great by itself: jong meaning young and leren can be translated as educating, how appropriate!), and I would love to tell you all about it, but the purpose of me mentioning this, is the metaphor of juggling. (in case you do want to check it out, click here.)
Last February I went to the Netherlands and participated in a training given by this same guy. Right now I sincerely wished he had also taught me how to juggle in addition to all the other very useful information I learned that week.
Because, here is my confession: I think I am trying to keep too many balls in the air, while I have no clue how to juggle.
'Me-time' seems a word of the past since I started working full-time. And as I work at the same school as my children are attending, I am with kids from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed, even on my commute to and from work.
This is not a piece meant as one big pathetic complain, but how do people do it?
Household, three (pre)teenagers with a variety of activities (piano lessons. orchestra, track and field, swimming, just to name a few), healthy home-made meals, clean and folded clothes, after school and weekend transportation from and to friends, house rental business on the side.
I haven't taken the time to work-out or even to go for a walk. Mail is piling up. You can start seedlings on my kitchen floor. I have so many ideas in my head, but can't get a word on paper. No poem, blog or piece of writing has been generated for a while.
The signs are there: I have been using a certain kind of medication for over 15 years now and never forgot to take it until recently. My eczema has been under control for years and suddenly flares up again. I am known as a punctual person, but have been late for appointments recently. And I can't seem to shake this lingering cold!
I kept thinking of this 'juggling piece' and I know I am definitely trying to keep more balls in the air than I can handle.
The question is how can I let go of a few and which ones?
I have worked before while having kids, millions of people combine work and kids, so why am I having trouble?
Uhm, maybe because I am the kind of person that wants to do everything she does perfectly. And being perfect is hard, even if I was a great juggler.
So instead of learning to juggle, maybe I should learn to accept that slightly crooked folded towels (done by my teenage son) are fine too. That not every meal has to be 'Martha Stewart-style' and that sometimes sandwiches for dinner is okay (or a not-so-healthy meal made with love by my 13-year old). That it is fine to say to my kids that I can only bring them to their friends or pick them up at certain times rather than be available per their request (or even say -no- sometimes). That is it okay for me to read a book while I told my kids to clean the bathroom. And that it doesn't make me a bad mom if I miss a track and field meet once in a while.
So I dropped all the balls, talked to my family over dinner and together we made a plan. They all would chip in and I would communicate my needs better. I went to bed that night feeling a bit better and didn't even have any bad dreams about my poor juggling performances.
And guess what? I discovered that the world still goes around with dirty dishes in the sink.

A great pair of entries from Ryan Tracey (@ryantracey) on the nature of the SME. This discussion leads us into the territory of "Unconscious Competence" as pioneered by Gordon Training International. Thanks to Ryan for sharing these gems.
In my previous blog post, Everyone is an SME, I argued that all the employees in your organisation have knowledge and skills to share, because everyone is an SME in something.
Sometimes this "something" is obvious because it's a part of their job. For example, Sam the superannuation administrator is obviously an SME in unit switching, because he processes dozens of unit switches every day.
But sometimes the something isn't so obvious, because we're either too blind to see it, or – Heaven forbid – our colleagues have lives outside of the workplace.
Consider Martha, the tea lady. Obviously she's an SME in the dispensation of hot beverages. That's her job.
But dig a little deeper and you'll discover that she's also an SME in customer service and relationship management. That's her job, too.
Oh, and she speaks fluent Polish and Russian.
May I also introduce you to…

|Sighting Report
|Occurred : 7/31/1969 20:00 (Entered as : 07/31/1969 20:00)
Reported: 5/29/2007 12:36:19 AM 00:36
Posted: 6/12/2007
Location: Summerville, SC
Shape: Light
Duration:an hour
|Glowing light that filled the entire sky over summerville south carolina starting small then growing large enough to cover the sky.
I'm not sure if this happened in 1969 or 1970 or 1971. I listed it as July 31 1969 but am very unsure about the date. I do remember that it was hot, very hot. So I'm guessing it was in the Summer. At the time, I was a very young boy. My Father worked at the air base in Charleston but we lived in Summerville.
I don't recall a lot of the specifics but will never forget what I saw and felt that night. It started with a commotion outside. I remember going out the door and seeing so many of our neighbors outside by the street all looking up. As soon as I got to the edge of the carport, I could see it too. What is was is still difficult to say. The only way I can describe it was like a glowing light, a light that started small and slowly grew large enough to fill the sky. I don't know how long it lasted but at the time, to me it seemed to have lasted an hour.
I remember everyone trying to decide what it was.. or more accurately what it was not. First thoughts were that it was from the air base but that didn't make sense. There was nothing large enough there to cover the entire sky. I remember asking lots of questions about what it was but no one had any answers.
There were at least 20 families on our street watching the sky. I remember being scared to death and going inside my house with some of the neighbors. When it was gone there were lots of phone calls and lots of discussions. To this day, I don't know how it was ever explained. I have told very few people of this incident for obvious reasons, most insist you are exaggerating or just not remembering the events accurately.
To this day, I've not seen anything that can fill the entire sky with that kind of light. I'd love to know what the news archives have on the "event" from that night.
((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD))

NIMA Local House Hotel offers unique rooms, incredible service, and amazing hospitality in Mexico City, Mexico.
I had an amazing stay at NIMA. It is a literal paradise in the center of bustling Mexico City. The unmarked door really allows the hotel to blend in with the city. I was greeted by the amazing staff and given a refreshing mint drink upon my arrival. I was shown to my room on the top floor which was fantastic.
It was one of the most comfortable beds that I have ever slept in, there were automatic curtains (I think it is the coolest when hotels have this!), and there was even Netflix on the TV. My room looked out at the glass roof of the hotel, and across the walkway was a lovely outdoor lounge.
I ordered a great roast beef sandwich for dinner and for breakfast I had scrambled eggs served with fruit and a side of refried beans that was just amazing. I loved talking with Carolina while eating breakfast!
I had a really early departure on my second day and the chef greeted me early with a packed breakfast to go - it was so thoughtful! I could not have had a better stay at NIMA - it is one of my favorite hotel experiences that I have ever had. From the incredible staff to the amazing decor, I cannot recommend NIMA enough!

Star of Bethlehem (Ornithogalum umbellatum)
A European native that has made itself quite at home here, Star of Bethlehem can often be found in weedy patches of low grass. Until it blooms, its narrow leaves are hard to distinguish from the grass around them. The six-pointed white flowers are unmistakable, with six yellow-tipped stamens whose flattened "filaments" seem to form a miniature duplicate flower inside the larger one. This plant was blooming in early May in the Allegheny Cemetery, where it is regularly mowed but seems not to care much.
Although most traditional references place the Star of Bethlehem in the lily family Liliaceae, modern botanists separate it into the asparagus family Asparagaceae.
Gray describes the genus and the species:
ORNITHÓGALUM [Tourn.] L. STAR OF BETHLEHEM. Perianth of 6 (white) spreading 3-7-nerved divisions. Filaments 6, flattened-awl-shaped. Style 3-sided; stigma 3-angled. Capsule roundish-angular, with few dark and roundish seeds in each cell, loculicidal. — Scape and linear channeled leaves from a coated bulb. Flowers corymbed, bracted; pedicels not jointed. (A whimsical name from ornis, a bird, and gala, milk.)
O. umbellàtum L. Scape 1-2.5 dm. high; flowers 5-8, on long and spreading pedicels; perianth-divisions green in the middle on the outside. — Escaped from gardens. (Introd. from Eu.)
Lily of the Valley (Convallaria majalis)
Lily of the Valley, a favorite ornamental ground cover for shady spots, is a frequent escape from gardens; it may sometimes mark old homesites, as a patch can persist indefinitely. It comes from the Old World, but it is also apparently native (there is some debate) to the Appalachians; if so, however, its native range is well to the south of our area. When we see Lily of the Valley growing in the wild, we may regard it as a guest rather than a resident. These plants were blooming in the middle of May deep in the woods in Bird Park, Mount Lebanon.
Gray describes the genus and the species:
CONVALLÀRIA L. LILY OF THE VALLEY. Perianth bell-shaped, white, with 6 short recurved lobes. Stamens 6, included, inserted on the base of the perianth; anthers introrse. Ovary 3-celled, tapering into a stout style; stigma triangular. Ovules 4-6 in each cell. Berry few-seeded, red. — Perennial herb, glabrous, stemless, with slender running root- stocks, 2 or 3 oblong leaves, and an angled scape bearing a one-sided raceme of sweet-scented nodding flowers. (From Lilium convallium, the popular name.)
С majàlis L. — High mountains, Va. to S. С. — Apparently identical with the European Lily of the Valley of the gardens which occurs as an occasional escape from cultivation elsewhere within our limits.
English Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta)
The beloved English Bluebell or "Wood Hyacinth" is often cultivated, and occasionally escapes. The USDA PLANTS database records it as occurring in the wild in Westmoreland County, but this one grew spontaneously in Beechview in the city of Pittsburgh, where it was blooming along a fence at the edge of a yard in the middle of May.

Greg Aldisert quoted by Bloomberg in 'bond king' Bill Gross's wrongful termination suit against PIMCO
KWIKA founding partner Greg Aldisert was quoted by Bloomberg in Edvard Pettersson's article on bond guru Bill Gross's suit against the firm he co-founded, Pacific Investment Management Co., better known as PIMCO. Gross's 2014 shocking departure from the investment giant whose success he was principally responsible for rocked the normally serene world of bond investors far and wide.
Maybe even more surprising was that someone as successful as Gross had no contract with PIMCO such that, at least at first glance, he could be fired at any time. On the other hand, Greg said it's not easy to evaluate the claims in a lawsuit from just the initial complaint. "You can't get more sophisticated than these guys. But without a written contract he would likely be terminable at will."
For more details, see the Full Article.

Iowa is among the places where substance abuse is a major plague in U.S. It is out of this concern that the state has established a special governing body that is solely responsible for application of all possible strategies that can help in minimizing the scourge that arises from the substance abuse problem. This body is known as Bureau of Substance abuse and it receives its commands from the Iowa State department of public health.
The organization was established as a special affiliate of the Division of Behavioral Health when concerned authorities found the need for having such an organization. Among the efforts and strategies that it has applied in controlling the substance abuse menace include prescription drug abuse treatment in Iowa.
At the moment, all the Iowa prescription drug use and abuse programs are under scrutiny of this watchdog to ensure that they meet the standard operation requirements. The main areas that Bureau of Substance Abuse is primarily engaged in controlling can be classified into two main categories.
The first category involves providing oversight for all prevention and treatment aspects concerning substance abuse. The second phase of the entity concerns active participation in providing preventive and treatment services to the locals of the state.
This goal is achieved by the entity autonomously and in cahoots with other chief stakeholders in the health institution in general, and public health sector in particular. It is essential to understand that this body operates solely under the public health sector mandate.
The body has also been working in tandem with private and individual organizations like foundations and charities in order to help in securing greater accessibility of both prevention and treatment services offered by prescription drug abuse treatment Iowa.
Iowa has been experiencing a large number of people who are getting introduced into substance abuse occasionally. It is out of this concern that has made the Bureau of Substance Abuse focus a substantial part of its effort to prevention of new addicts as opposed to treating addicted persons. In fact, statistics reveal that it is even easier to prevent addiction of new persons than it is to treat an addicted individual.
This treatment approach has seen almost all the prescription drug abuse treatment in Iowa establish strong community outreach programs for addressing the problem. The local community and close associates of the addicted persons are incorporated in the treatment programs to equip them with adequate skills to help them identify and refrain from substance abuse. Besides, they are trained with relevant skills they need for supporting addicted individuals to get out of the habit.
The training and sensitization programs aimed to the general public by the bureau involve running informative workshops. Attendants are educated on the negative impact of substance abuse on personal health and their social health. Prescription drug abuse treatments in Iowa are primarily targeted to youths and teenagers since this is the most vulnerable of groups falling victim of substance addiction.
If you have a loved one into addiction, be confident with the prescription drug abuse treatment in Iowa since the facilities are accredited and certified by the Bureau of Substance Abuse. This body takes a rigorous analysis of all the facilities to ensure they have the basic requirements to help patients quit substance abuse.

CMSF Mobile Infantry Division
Rough Neck Platoon
Lead By: CMSF-Razak
The leader of Alpha squad, known also as "Razak's Roughnecks", he is the consummate professional soldier. Iron-willed, yet adaptable. Gruff, yet caring. He treats his troopers as if they were his family. In point of fact, they are his family. During the bug wars, he lost his left forearm and his squad in his first command patrol. He is determined to not let that happen again. Shepherding his troopers through countless missions, he leads by example, completing the missions and bringing his troops home. He lives by the creed, "Ask not what my troopers can do for me, but what I can do for my troopers."
Essentially a bigger and more heavily armed and armored power suit. The marauder is the M.I. equivalent to a Goliath. Bipedal, the marauder provides heavy fire support. Armed with machine guns, rocket launchers, mortar fire, and sensors, it can dish out some serious punishment. The suits are also equipped with very extensive and powerful array of sensory equipment. One serious drawback is that the suits can only be used for an hour at a time, due to low power capacity. And it's general lack of mobility and slowness are also liabilities.
This dropship is primarily used for HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) drops. The dropship releases dropsuited troopers and marauders through openings in the bottom and sides of the ship. It is rarely used in atmosphere, but it is capable of atmospheric flight. It needs to be refueled after two missions, and has a limited range of operations. The wings retract for storage onboard the Valley Forge, and for stabilization during edge of atmosphere HALO flights.
The troopers best friend, the Morita Rifle is the mainstay of the M.I. Trooper Arsenal. A compact, selective fire assault weapon capable of firing different loadouts depending upon the magazine type being used. It can fire caseless rounds and lasers. The magazine for the main weapon is located in the back stock. The Morita also has a secondary weapon slung underneath the main barrel. The secondary weapon can fire shotgun slug type rounds or mini-grenades. The magazine for the secondary weapon is located at the bottom of the Morita. The Morita can also fire underwater, and tends to run out of ammo at the most inappropriate times. An old adage comes to mind; "This is my weapon, this is my gun, one's for killing, the other is for fun."
M.I. Fire Bat Weapon
Portable unit using a volatile mixture of chemicals to project an intense blast of fire that incinerates the target. In case of an emergency, a match and dropping of lower battle armor will suffice.
The body armor of the M.I. trooper, it is an essential piece of the Troopers arsenal. It provides protection and life support in hostile situations and environments. Completely self-contained (no farting please), it can operate in zero atmosphere environments. Equipped with a complete suite of electronic equipment, ranging from tactical overlays and maps, medical readouts, communications, and targeting, it can even receive e-mails. Targeting capabilities of the suit can be interfaced with any weapon or device for accuracy. Weapons can be carried on magnetic hardpoints on the Field pack. The suits have a maximum 24-hour charge before the suit gives out, trapping the trooper in their suit. There is also a jungle variant consisting of an open-faced helm and lighter armor in a camouflage pattern with a daring plunging neckline. Made from a spider silk polyorganic compound, it is light and comfortable to wear.

After completing hybrid setup with Office 365 tenant, we will change the mail routing from our existing Anti-Spam solution to Exchange Online Protection a.k.a EOP in most of the cases. Once we changed the mail routing to EOP few or many users might complain that the partner of our company or any external domain users sends an email to few addresses, they are getting the bounce back email with the following message
|Your message to firstname.lastname@example.com couldn't be delivered.
|alias wasn't found at companydomain.com.
With the following error message
|Error Details
This might be because of few reasons
- The specified object is not synced with Office 365 through DirSync
- Domains which are added in the O365 domains are set to Authoritative
- Mail enabled Public Folders are not synced to O365
We can resolve the above mentioned issue in many ways. You can choose the appropriate one from the suggested solution below based on your requirement in the organization
If you can sync those object to O365 then this method is highly recommended since it will create a mail contact in O365. While processing the message, O365 server will route the message to our hybrid server.
- If the complete OU is not synced with Azure and you want to enable it now due to this reason, then please run a full sync again to complete the process. You can follow this article to run a manual sync – https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/rmilne/2014/10/01/how-to-run-manual-dirsync-azure-active-directory-sync-updates/
- If you want to sync only few object from the OU then recommended way is to create a new OU with sync enabled and move those object to it. Run a full manual sync to complete it
- It is always recommended to make O365 domains set to "Internal Relay" instead of "Authoritative" until you migrate all the objects to cloud. By doing this we can ensure that if there are any new objects which got created in on-prem but yet to be synced with cloud will also able to receive emails. O365 will route those emails to hybrid even if it is not resolved in cloud by assuming that it will be available in our exchange server. Our server will then decide to deliver or generate NDR since it is an authoritative server for the transaction
- Please make sure the mail enabled public folders are synced with cloud. You can follow this article to double check the same – https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249373(v=exchg.150).aspx
- If you do not want to follow any of these method you can simply create a mail contact for that object in cloud however this is not recommended as we are going to move all the object to cloud in the near future anyway 🙂
So next time if you face this issue please consider any of these method as a part of your troubleshooting steps. This method will be applicable only to those mailboxes, PF, mail contacts which were receiving mails without any issues before the mail routing cut off to EOP. If you come across any other method which I left out then please let me know through comment below. Happy troubleshooting 🙂

text: Thrifty Theatre- Top 10 Tips On Getting Cheap Theatre Tickets! Posted on Jan 16, 2015 | By London Theatre Direct Often London theatre has a reputation of being on the pricey side, however I am of the belief that theatre should be accessible for everyone. A trip to watch the latest musical or play doesn't have to break the bank and here are my tips for a budget friendly experience. 1. Keep calm, there are always returns! When your favourite shows are sold out, don't worry, you can often turn up at the box office and grab a returned ticket on the day of the performance- sometimes at a discounted rate. Check the theatre for times as these vary. 2. Early bird. Many productions have 'preview' performances. These tickets are often cheaper and you'll get to see the production before press! 3. Last minute theatre tickets. Some theatres offer reduced priced tickets on the day of the performance if you're able to turn up at the box office. Michael Grandage productions are great for doing this offering cheap stalls tickets on the day. If you can't make it to the box office, check London Theatre Direct's Last Minute tickets section where you can book tickets to shows up to the very day of the performance! 4. Spot a promo. London's West End theatre shows are constantly putting out deals and discount tickets to get bums on seats. Even for the most popular shows, you're sure to see a great deal at some point if you stay sharp! Check out London Theatre Direct's Discount tickets section for discount theatre tickets and hot deals. 5. Don't be fussy. Everyone knows the cheaper seats are at the back. However there's no need to worry for plays in smaller theatres. You get great views wherever you are. The Young Vic pride themselves on being able to see from every seat- not a single pillar or camera rigging in sight. 6. Support local. Check out your local theatres, there are some great local companies out there producing some outstanding theatre and prices are a snippet of what you can pay in the West End. 7. Become a friend. Everyone needs a friend, check out theatre websites for subscriptions and 'Becoming a Friend' they'll often send out discounts to their upcoming shows. You'll also get priority booking for most performances. 8. Aged 16 – 25? Those lucky enough to fall into this age bracket can enjoy discounted tickets at most theatres. Check their websites for details. 9. Invest in comfy shoes. Ok, so you may need to spend a little to begin with but investing in some great comfy shoes means you can take the standing tickets. These can be as little as £5. Just check the performance running times, a 3 hour performance may not be ideal. 10. London Theatre Direct. Need I say more?

text: SportsGiants Jason Pierre-Paul progresses to football reps, could play next week New York Giants player Jason Pierre-Paul practices with team coming off a severe injury to his right hand at East Rutherford, New Jersey on October 28, 2015. Photo Credit: Patrick E. McCarthy By TOM ROCK email@example.com @TomRock_Newsday October 29, 2015 1:21 PM Print Share fbShare Tweet Email Tom Coughlin said the Giants are rooting for Jason Pierre-Paul to make his comeback. On Thursday, they were quite literal. The defensive end made a major leap in his progress in just his second day with the team, going from stretching and drills on the side with trainers to actual football reps with the rest of the squad. Pierre-Paul, who signed his one-year contract on Tuesday night, looked so good and is progressing so quickly that it may be possible he takes the field next week against the Buccaneers. "He moved well and I think he proved to the medical people that he's in good shape," Coughlin said before the practice. "That's not to include all the back and forth, sideways stuff. He's going to have to work his way through some of that, too. But he's in excellent condition." Pierre-Paul drew hoots and yells from his fellow defensive linemen as he completed mundane drills and tasks that they themselves had done - largely without applause - since the start of the season. He showed no sign of being limited in any capacity, not even with his damaged right hand that remained in the heavy white glove he wore on Wednesday. He completed drills in which he grabbed onto a blocker and shed him to attack a ball-carrier, even tearing the jersey of blocker Robert Ayers at one point. He looked spry coming around the edge for a sack on a tackling dummy and then scooping up a fumble. And he drew the loudest cheers from teammates when he went through a maze of blocking bags, swinging left and right hands to push them away, before cutting and tackling one last bag. The only area Pierre-Paul seemed to be hindered in was when he tried to snap the right side of his chinstrap to his helmet with his left hand. It took him a few tries to get that just right. That Pierre-Paul plays a position where he could conceivably be on the field for a limited number of snaps - say 10-15 pass-rushes - opens the possibility of a return to game action even more swiftly than originally anticipated. Few thought he would be on the practice field as quickly as he has made it there. Perhaps the game field is closer than they thought as well.

Ethnomusicologist to serve as ETSU's Basler Chairholder in spring
January 12, 2016JOHNSON CITY Dr. Jeff Todd Titon will be in residence at East Tennessee State University as chairholder of the Wayne G. Basler Chair of Excellence in the Arts, Rhetoric and Science during the spring 2016 semester.
Titon, an ethnomusicologist, is a professor of music emeritus at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, where he taught from 1986 until his retirement in 2013.
Since then, he has continued research, lecturing and writing. His current work is focused on bioacoustics and ecomusicology, with essays published in "Current Directions in Ecomusicology" (Routledge, 2015) and forthcoming in the new British journal Sound Studies.
Titon's collaborative fieldwork with Old Regular Baptists in eastern Kentucky, begun in 1990 when he was Goode Visiting Professor of Appalachian Studies at Berea College, is ongoing and has helped the group conserve its music, which represents the oldest English-language oral tradition of religious music in the United States. It has also yielded several essays and two CDs for Smithsonian Folkways, one of which was selected this year for permanent recognition on the National Recording Registry.
He is the author or editor of eight books, the most recent of which is the "Oxford Handbook of Applied Ethnomusicology" (Oxford University Press, 2015). Others include "Early Downhome Blues," which won an ASCAP-Deems Taylor Award; "Worlds of Music," which has been released in six editions since 1984 and has been translated into Italian and Chinese; and "Powerhouse for God," a book, record and documentary film about religious practice in Virginia's northern Blue Ridge. He also maintains a blog on sound and sustainability at http://sustainablemusic.blogspot.com.
Titon holds a B.A. from Amherst College and both an M.A. in English and a Ph.D. in American Studies from the University of Minnesota. He taught English, folklore and ethnomusicology at Tufts University before joining the Brown University faculty, and has held numerous visiting professorships through the years. His research has been supported by the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
As the Basler chairholder, Titon will teach "Religion in Appalachia" and "Ethnomusicology and Appalachia" in the Department of Appalachian Studies and deliver a series of four free public lectures. These talks, in which he will explore sound and sociality and propose a sound ecology, will include "A Presence of Sound" on Feb. 9, "A Community of Sound" on March 1, "An Economy of Sound" on March 29 and "An Ecology of Sound" on April 19. Each lecture begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Ball Hall auditorium.
Created in 1994, the Wayne G. Basler Chair of Excellence for the Integration of the Arts, Rhetoric and Science is named in honor of a longtime member of the ETSU Foundation who is a strong advocate of programs at the university and has a deep commitment to the liberal arts.
The Chair of Excellence brings a variety of scholars to the community to broaden opportunities for students and the general public in the arts, humanities and science. Titon's research and writing in music, folklore, religious studies, ecomusicology, soundscape ecology and bioacoustics exemplifies the integration of the arts, humanities and sciences represented by the Basler Chair.
The Department of Appalachian Studies at ETSU is the only full academic department devoted to the study of the Appalachian region and is one of only two institutions to offer a master's degree in the field. The department also includes the world's first bachelor of arts degree in Bluegrass, Old Time, and Country Music, as well as a study abroad program in Scotland and Ireland.

PROVO, Utah (PRWEB) July 18, 2016
Simplifile, a leading provider of real estate document collaboration and recording technologies for lenders, settlement agents, and counties, has partnered with Qualia to enable law firms and title agents to e-record directly from Qualia's cloud-based settlement software. The integration allows Qualia users to save time and money by recording and executing policies the same day of closing while eliminating paper, check-writing, and postage costs.

Smart calculations and built-in error checking ensure generated disclosures are compliant with regulatory guidelines. Data entered into Qualia is saved automatically and in real-time, allowing multiple team members to collaborate on the same transaction at the same time with confidence.
"Qualia's driving goal is to create an undeniably user-friendly software that cuts out all of the unnecessary headaches typically found in the title and settlement process," said Nate Baker, chief executive officer of Qualia.

Chloe Grace Moretz Shows Off New Under-Boob Tattoo
The message is small but inspiring
Chloe Grace Moretz has added to her growing tattoo collection with another one just under her bosom saying: 'it gets better than this'.
The inspired saying was done by tattoo artist Dr Woo who shared the snaps before deleting them for some ~mysterious~ reason. His post said: 'Some healed ones on @chloegmoretz.'
Chloe added a closer (but mirror reflection) image to her Insta-Stories 👇
Dr Woo also shared (and deleted this one too) of a second tatt of Chloe's, a rose. This is an older tattoo so maybe he re-did it over added something? We dunno, but here you go!
We're not sure why the pica got deleted, but judging by the quote and where the ink is, maybe Chloe decided it was too private? SOZ BABES WE HAD TO SEE IT!
