Las Cuevas Beach is the only blue flag accredited beach in Trinidad and Tobago. This means that there is access to the beach for the Disabled and the visually impaired. Las Cuevas is just a few miles after the famed Maracas Bay but the drive is worth it.
When you arrive you are greeted with a well stocked canteen at the car park area as well as modern washroom facilities. On the beach you will notice that there are numerous strategically placed lifeguard towers to keep a watchful eye on bathers.
The first thing that you will see as you settle in on the beach are the caves that give Las Cuevas its name.
River at Las Cuevas Beach
If you are the adventurous type and decide to take a stroll along the shoreline you will soon realise that it is easier said than done. The length of the beach is massive. It seems as if it goes on forever. At the midway point it is punctuated by the Las Cuevas River.
It is at this end that during the Easter vacation many people get closer to nature by utilising the area as a holiday campsite. This end of the beach is also shared with the famous and enormous Leatherback Turtle. Yes, Las Cuevas is an annual nesting ground for the Leatherback. So whenever you decide to visit Las Cuevas remember that this beach in particular is very important in terms of wildlife conservation and Eco-Tourism. So do not leave any litter behind and leave the beach cleaner than you met it.
When you get in the water the first thing you will notice is how calm it is. On most days the water is almost flat with small waves rolling in to shore. The water is also surprisingly crystal clear and teeming with fish hence the reason there are so many fishing boats and pelicans in the distance.

Atlantic Solutions, located in Somerset, New Jersey, has been staying true to their commitment to delivering results for clients and other people are taking notice! Recently, our President was chosen, amongst other entrepreneurs, to attend a VIP style getaway to San Francisco, California. Since the entire team could not attend, he promised to share all the details of his experience; from the business takeaways down to the amusing details.
The excitement of DK's trip started with his travel arrangements for the cross-country adventure. He flew on his favorite airline, Virgin Airline. If you've never flown on it before, it's extremely hip. It's lit with these really cool purple lights throughout and free live TV is even available to all passengers! DK spent most of his flight brushing up on one of his favorite business books, How to Win Friends and Influence People.
Once he landed, the Atlantic Solutions President made his way to Santa Rosa where he and a few other select entrepreneurs would be staying… in a 10 bedroom mansion. No big deal. It was on the top of a hill overlooking the mountainside right in the middle of wine country. In addition to an amazing view and prime location, they also had a huge pool and an impressive sauna and Jacuzzi. The first night there (Thursday), a local vineyard owner came to the mansion to provide a private wine tasting…because when in Rome. In addition to providing some amazing wine, he also casually reminded everyone of the man-eating predators in the area…mountain lions. Thanks…we think…
On Friday, these high performing entrepreneurs had a chance to brainstorm and discuss business with an elite business mentor. He also gave them tons of coaching in all aspects of business management that would help them take their companies to the next level. Following their brainstorming and discussions, the group grilled out at the mansion at enjoyed the wine that they had purchased from their wine tasting.
"I always wanted to be an entrepreneur because of the freedom and the ability to make choices — like to leave your company and go wine tasting on the opposite coast with some fellow hardworking entrepreneurs." -DK
No trip to wine country would be complete without a vineyard tour and wine sampling so that is exactly what happened during the day on Saturday. That night the group adventured to downtown San Francisco to a local hot spot called Catch, a very high-end and well-known seafood restaurant in the area. Atlantic Solutions' President grew up on an island, so he is quite the seafood critic being that it is his all-time favorite type of food. Even he was impressed with dinner!
Overall, DK was reminded of what it is that drives him as an entrepreneur.
"When you can do cool things, that's fun. But when you can do cool things with people that you love, there's nothing better than that. It's invaluable. I want to continue to create memories with the people I've built relationships with and see them become successful."
He also told us that it was great to reflect on the things that he had accomplished so far and what he was ready to achieve next.
Although it was an amazing trip, DK was most excited to get back to us here at Atlantic Solutions to get to work helping the team reach a level of success to be able to experience the type of weekend that he just had.

About Cyber Dating
Elena Moscatt, who I blogged about in November as she started filming Web episodes of her serial, Life After Lisa, has been hired as a casting director to find single women between the ages of 25 and 44 to star in a new reality program based upon the film The Vacation in which 2 ladies switch lives. Up until now, she hasn't had much luck. In truth, the producers and Soapnet, the cable television channel that will air the brand-new series, have put a Baltimore episode on hold and moved onto Dallas until Moscatt can find some candidates here.
When you've finally left your house, it's now time to find someplace to go. For starters, you can go down to your local book store. There's lots of attractive and single women there that you can talk to. When taking a look at females, do your finest not to look or look at them too hard in the eyes. You never ever wish to creep a lady out by taking a look at you as this is the wrong impression to provide.
# 1 Displaying your Alpha Male side indicates revealing self-confidence and appeal with males and females. Constantly expand your social media network! This is SO essential. Look, I have actually seen lots of people who study "pickup" due to the fact that they want to discover ways to meet single girls. A great deal of them become more successful with speaking to females and can occasionally get a lady, yet they continue to feel frightened or hostile towards other guys – especially men who they believe are good-looking or cooler than they are, or people who are getting more attention from women.
The internet has become a hassle-free way to get ladies too. You can open a chat account with MSN or Yahoo or any other messenger service. You will find many chatroom full of women looking for men. Select a chat space inning accordance with the type of women you wish to satisfy. Just beware about cyber scams and be two times as sure before you reveal your true identity. You might set up accounts with more than one service to enhance your possibilities of conference girls. You may likewise wish to sign up at some of the numerous dating sites online.

There are some other locations where you can find single girls throughout St. Valentine's Day. There are lots of places which organize Valentine's Day occasions. This can occur at some club or hotel or restaurant. A great deal of single women check out these occasions with their good friends.
The shopping center. Yes, the mall are chock loaded with ladies. However once again, how can you inform which are single and which are not? Well, first look for a ring. Then, examine out exactly what she is going shopping for. Single females buy things to draw in others. Attached females buy for themselves and for others. Also, take a look at the hardware shop, generally the only time you see a female in there is if she's single and really needs something.
Bottom Line

Dating service is the most convenient way to find songs since of its simpleness and convenience. You can try to find a life companion totally free at online dating services.

Turkey's steps against coup plotters within rule of law
Turkey is taking steps within the rule of law to weed out those who attacked democracy on the night of the defeated coup, Turkish president's daughter told an Islamic convention in the U.S.
Addressing the fifteenth annual MAS-ICNA convention launched late Monday in the U.S. city of Chicago, Sumeyye Erdogan Bayraktar told the story of the July 15 coup attempt that shook Turkey to its core but was defeated by the collective defiance of the people.
She began by conveying "warm greetings from Turkey – from our President Recep Tayyip Erdogan" to a thunderous applause.

They say you can show up in another country, buy a SIM card and pop it into any unlocked phone. How very wrong they are…
Here's how you should actually do it if you have an iPhone 4 or later (or any phone which uses microSIM cards):
1. Buy and activate a regular Prepaid SIM card from Claro at the airport.
2. Find a Claro 'atencion a clientes' and ask them to sell you a microchip SIM card (which only come with regular plans) but to swap the prepaid number from the big chip onto the microchip. Voila!!!
Here's how I actually did it in 11 easy steps (keep in mind these conversations were all in Spanish which is not my first language and imagine the difficulty for a non-Spanish speaker):
1. The Movistar at the airport told me that the iPhone 4 and later only take a microchip that they do not sell at the airport and that I could try the pharmacy.
2. The pharmacy told they neither sell the microchip but that I could buy a large one and find someone to cut it (avoiding the crucial metal parts of course!), or to try the other Movistar store in the airport, although he said Claro had a better network (Claro and Movistar are the main phone companies in Ecuador)
3. Movistar #2 told me that they were a small store that didn't carry these microchips and I needed to go to the big store in San Marino.
4. I arrived at my hostel, wandered over to the Citimall and saw a larger Movistar store so thought I'd ask them – same story to go to San Marino.
5. I saw a Claro store in Citimall and they told me I needed to go to the other location around the corner in the rotunda.
6. The Rotunda Claro location told me I needed to go to a 'Claro atencion a clientes' which is in Citimall which I believe translates to customer attention. I explained I'd just come from there and she recommended I get the full name if the employee and file a complaint.
7. I returned to Citimall Claro to explain that they'd sent me back here, and they explained that they are not a 'atencion a clientes' location but this time they explained that there were 2 Claro locations in Citimall and I needed to find the other.
8. I locate Claro atencion a clientes and they inform me that they do no carry microchips for prepaid, only for plans, and I can't get a monthly plan without an Ecuador citizen or resident number. I must buy a prepaid SIM card which is the normal size, and then bring it back to their store and they will swap the prepaid number onto a microchip. Except they don't carry the normal size prepaid sim chips either so I must go back to the other Claro.
9. As I find out, the other Citimall Claro normally sells them but is temporarily out of stock.
10. I go back to Rotunda Claro and the employee there spends about 30 minutes activating it (first calling the central Claro to verify if she can register me the card with my passport number instead if Ecuador ID (luckily yes) and then how to handle the fact that I only have one last name instead of two. $7 later I have a SIM card which is activated but doesn't fit my phone.
11. I return to Claro atencion a clientes and they are able to sell me a microchip and swap my prepaid number onto it.
I would say the moral of the story is s lesson in business customer service, except for the unfortunate fact that I represent a very rare and highly-difficult customer situation that could probably be lost without affecting Claro's bottom line in the least, and at the end of the day I will probably remain loyal to them despite atrocious customer service because quite frankly I don't want to go through the same thing again with Movistar!

On the blurred line between indie rock and straight-up pop, The New Pornographers (the Canadian-formed "supergroup" of Neko Case, Carl Newman and Dan Bejar among others) hit a sweet spot, bridging the generation gap between the skinny-jean wearing hipsters and their parents as evidenced by the crowd at their show Friday night at Stubb's Waller Creek Amphitheater.
Of course it helps that their decade-long stint has produced a number of pseudo-hits and that their various side projects create a more diverse audience, especially with Neko Case's Americana-leaning solo records.
Supporting their new group effort, Together, the new material was scattered between the aforementioned favorites such as "Sing Me Spanish Techno," which they opened with and "Twin Cinema."
While Neko and Carl seemed to be in top-form, enjoying the evening in spite of the "steamy" heat/humidity, it appeared that Dan couldn't be bothered to appear on-stage unless required for lead vocals. At one point the rest of the band had to call him back as he fled, reminding him that the next tune was his as well.
Along with the core members, Neko's Austin-based road stand-in joined in the fun, adding harmonies and tambourine, mirroring and supplementing Neko's parts for a total of ten musicians on the stage.
Neko proved irreplaceable with her vocals on "Go Places" and "My Shepherd." Kathryn Calder, who has a solo record due in August, rounded out the sound.
After "Bleeding Heart Show" and a decent encore break (even though their set list denoted a return, they made the crowd work for it) they thanked their openers The Dodos and Imaad Wasif and capped the night with "Testament to Youth In Verse."

Watching...Just like the rest of the world...the Olympics. Other than that I haven't really sat down to watch anything else recently. However, the other night while we were painting Matthew turned on Kevin Hart so that we could listen to him while we worked, and I was in tears at one point from laughing so hard.
Listening...My summer playlist. I need to make a fall playlist soon!!
Listening...My summer playlist. I need to make a fall playlist soon!!
Reading...All of your blogs! I haven't sat down long enough at home to read a book in MONTHS.
Loving...My handsome HUSBAND! He is just too dang cute and literally always has me laughing. Love doing life with my guy. New recipes. That we finished painting our living room Tuesday night!!!!! Weekends with no plans. Upcoming plans/trips. DAILY CONTACT....we decided after my last eye appointment that I should try daily contacts. I tried about a weeks worth to see if I liked them from my optometrist, and I absolutely loved them. They are more expensive, but I 100% believe it is worth it. No more having to wear foggy contacts for a month at a time...woo hoo!!
Wearing....Daily contacts ;) and this adorable shirt! Any fellow Tennesseans out there?? Y'all need this shirt! More to come on it tomorrow!
Eating...I made these pork chops for dinner yesterday and they were delicious! Monday night I made my nannies dumplings and I'm pretty sure we inhaled them. Matthew and I love them.
Laughing...Does at my husband count? He is always cracking jokes or being goofy...and I love it! Also these tweets had me and Matthew cracking up....this would be something Matthew would do lol.
Working...On a new series for this little blog of mine!! Woo hoo! I am excited about it!
Travelling...We haven't been anywhere recently, which is nice for a change, but I think we are looking into going to Cookeville again....and we are PUMPED!
Planning...I'm about to get real boring here and say our meals for next week lol. #noshame in my meal planning game! I am also really motivated to cut our grocery bill in half. Not that it was crazy high or anything, but I came across a blog the other day and she had a whole post about cutting your grocery bill in half and I am always up for a new challenge lol.

Matron of Honor
(Critical Survey of Contemporary Fiction)
MATRON OF HONOR is another perceptive novel by the author of SMALL VICTORIES (1992). Again Sallie Bingham exposes the inner lives of her characters, tracing their quiet struggles for happiness and even for survival. The two Mason sisters seem to have everything. They are both charming, attractive young women from a well-to-do family, who have been loved and pampered by their parents and given the freedom to shape their lives, as long as they fulfill the expectations of the upper-class Southern society into which they were born. The older girl, Corinne, or "Cory," has done well; she is the wife of an ambitious New York lawyer. As the novel begins, the younger daughter, Adeline, or "Apple," is about to marry a promising young man who works for her father. Then Cory arrives, announcing that she has left her husband for a married man. What her mother most fears is that Cory will ruin the wedding by creating a public scandal. Moving through the minds of her characters, one at a time, Bingham suggests that Cory's situation is hardly unique. In a society which restricts women to subordinate roles, very few of them can find fulfillment. Just as Cory resents having her husband treat her like his official hostess, and an inadequate at that, so Apple will be infuriated when Billy Long carries out his plans to break her, as he does his horses. Sensing that Apple is making a mistake by marrying Billy, Cory tries to halt the ceremony, but she fails. Nevertheless, the novel ends with her own public declaration of independence.

well, as promised, here comes a new update shortly after the previous one....actually I planned to do it over the weekend, but for some reason Photbucket was having some issues (so in case you dropped by and all you could see were blank images, blame it on Photobucket, not me...)
on a side note, my assumptions regarding the most disappointing interview I have ever had, proved to be true and one really needs to have connections for everything....today I got that dreaded call of "I am sorry but we have chosen someone else..." Oh well...
anyways, I will start today's update with a card dear Sissel sent me 4 years ago from her trip to Sri Lanka - I don't know if I had mentioned this previously, but I have kinda decided to start focusing more on the older cards cos otherwise, I will like never get to post them.....I will show some of the new ones received as well, however, the ratio would probably be more in favour to the older ones...
Sissel sent me this amazing Dambulla Rock Temple, a UNESCO whs in the central part of the country.
It is the largest and best-preserved cave temple complex in Sri Lanka with rock towers 160 m over the surrounding plains.There are more than 80 documented caves in the surrounding area and the major attractions are spread over five caves, which contain statues and paintings related to Gautama Buddha and his life. There are a total of 153 Buddha statues, three statues of Sri Lankan kings and four statues of gods and goddesses. The latter include Vishnu and the Ganesha. The murals cover an area of 2,100 square metres. Depictions on the walls of the caves include the temptation by the demon Mara, and Buddha's first sermon.
Prehistoric Sri Lankans would have lived in these cave complexes before the arrival of Buddhism in Sri Lanka as there are burial sites with human skeletons about 2700 years old in this area, at Ibbankatuwa near the Dambulla cave complexes.
two stamps from the 2007 Constellations' issue of 12 stamps - here are the Aquarius and the Libra.
Tusen takk Sissel!!!!

This is not a race. Open to riders of all ages, the Rally is designed as a casual, self-paced ride. Choose between a 20-mile course through the Heights and nearby neighborhoods and a shorter 5-mile ride designed for kids and their adult companions - or do both!
The Rally starts and ends at Marmion Park, 18th Street & Heights Boulevard.
Here's the schedule for the day:
So get ready to test your trivia skills. There are fabulous prizes for the riders who correctly identify the most mystery sights along the route. And all kids who participate receive award ribbons.
Don't forget your helmet - we want all riders to be safe!
Full details are on our Bicycle Rally page.
So air up those tires and come enjoy a great day in the neighborhood.
Third Thursday with the Urbanites

They may originally be from Austin, but just like many Heights dwellers who come from somewhere else, we're happy to welcome Torchy's Tacos to the heart of the Heights! Offering a full bar and their award-winning hot sauce, we'll have a private room with the doors wide open onto their 19th Street patio.
That's Thursday, October 17, 6:00-8:00 PM at 350 West 19th Street.
Follow the Urbanites on Twitter at @HHUrbanites and on Facebook as Houston Heights Urbanites.
Skyline Screamers: Ghost Tales Under the Stars in Marmion Park
Bring your blankets or folding chairs, bug spray and snacks, and a flashlight to light your way home. The Houston Storytellers Guild presents its annual free ghost story performance at HHA's Marmion Park on Saturday, October 26, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Listen to such veteran ghost tale tellers as Alice Evergreen, Brian Herod, and Scott Bumgartner as well as some new performers, as they share scary tales from Houston and beyond. For adults and kids who like to be scared.
After HSG tellers perform their stories, members of the audience are invited to share a scary story or experience that they have had.
Skyline Screamers was the inaugural event of the newly-formed Houston Storytellers Guild back in 1986. The first annual ghost story event took place at the amphitheatre behind the High School for Law Enforcement. Later it moved to Sam Houston Park, and finally settled at Marmion Park in Houston Heights with the cosponsorship of the Houston Heights Association.
The Houston Storytellers Guild meets monthly at St. Andrew's House next to St. Andrew's Church on Heights Boulevard near 18th Street. Meetings are free and open to all on the third Tuesday of each month from 7:00 to 8:30 PM.
Houston Storytellers Guild meetings always begin with a "showcase speaker," who speaks for about 20 minutes about a topic of interest to story tellers and story listeners. The HSG October meeting will feature Caroline Castillo, Oral History librarian from the Houston Metropolitan Research Center of Houston Public Library. She'll be talking about the Oral History project, how she interviews people about Houston history, and will possibly show clips from some of the interviews. Then they'll proceed as usual with stories from those who want to share one.
HHA Monthly Mixer & Meeting
Join HHA at 6:30 PM on Monday, October 14, for refreshments, conversation, and information. Sign up for the 2014 Constable Patrol Program and experience 10 Heights artists' work. Refreshments courtesy of the Heights Pages.
At 7:00 PM, HHA VP Bill Baldwin will introduce Precinct One's Constable Alan Rosen. Mitch Cohen will speak on "Heights Art Scene Today: 10 artists in 10 minutes," and there will be short campaign speeches by HHA Board candidates.
It's all happening at the Houston Heights City Hall & Fire Station at 12th & Yale.
Coming Up in November
Mark your calendar. For this one night only, Heights Business Members will be on hand to showcase their services and wares. It's a great way to familiarize yourself with the grand variety of local businesses and retail shops in our Heights neighborhood.

ArCH Bike Tours of Houston Heights
The Architecture Center Foundation in collaboration with the American Institute of Architects organizes and leads seven tours of Houston's most interesting districts and neighborhoods.
The most recent innovation is a bicycle tour of Houston Heights, Houston's and Texas' first planned community and home of 120 of Houston's 215 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This Saturday morning tour examines the original structure of the Heights and selected historic civic, commercial, residential, and sacred buildings as well as contemporary buildings that fit the neighborhood's character. This season the tours will take place on October 12 and December 21. City-owned bikes may be available for rental in the Heights on these days.
Details of all tours can be found on aiahouston.org; click on Architecture Center Houston, subhead ArCH Home, and look under Upcoming Events.

Director Election Schedule
Six of the fifteen positions on the HHA Board of Directors will be filled by election over the next few months. Five of the positions are opening due to normal expiration of terms, one by early termination of a term. The five nominees receiving the highest numbers of votes will serve three-year terms; the nominee receiving the sixth-highest number will fill the remaining two years of a term. See our August issue for a list of current Directors.
Seven candidates were nominated at the September General Meeting. The remainder of the schedule for the election of Directors to serve terms starting in 2013 will be as follows, in accordance with the By-Laws and Policies of the Association:
• October 14 at the General Meeting, nominees or their representatives may speak on their qualifications for three minutes. They will also draw for ballot positions at the beginning of the meeting.
• By the Friday following the General Meeting (October 18) the Election Committee will mail a ballot with a control number to each member in good standing whose dues are currently paid as of October 1. (Members invoiced by August 15 and not paid by October 1 are deemed not in good standing.)
• Ballots must be received by November 9, at the close of the U. S. Post Office, with control numbers intact.
• November 11, before the General Meeting, polls will be open for secret balloting in person from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM sharp. The Election Committee will tabulate ballots and announce the results during the meeting. The results will also be published in the December newsletter.

Constable Patrol Program
Mark your calendars for the Houston Heights Association monthly meeting at 7:00 PM on Monday, October 14 at the Heights Fire Station located at Yale and W. 12th. The deputies will be there, as well as Constable Alan Rosen from Harris County Precinct 1, to talk about the Heights Constable Program. This is your chance to meet and speak with our officers.
Recently, three officers patrolled the Heights area providing services such as alarm responses, accident responses, home inspections, and suspicious vehicle checks. Due to the increased number of subscribers in the program, HHA submitted a proposal to add a fourth officer to the patrol. Harris County Commissioners approved our proposal on September 24. The fourth officer should begin patrolling shortly.
Starting at the October 14 meeting, we will be accepting renewals for the 2014 year. The rate will be $299 if paid by check and $310 if by credit card. The increase in patrols does not affect the 2014 subscription rate, which remains the same as this year. Patrol program yard signs will be on hand if yours is in need of replacement.

Voter ID Requirements
A Special Announcement from State Representative Jessica Farrar
In June, the Supreme Court's ruling in Shelby v. Holder gutted the Voting Rights Act preclearance requirement that had previously blocked Texas's Voter ID law. Following the ruling, the Texas Attorney General announced that the state would implement the Voter ID law passed in the 82nd Legislative Session.
Moving forward, voters will need to bring an ID to the polling location. The following documents are acceptable forms of ID:
The proof of identification will need to be current, though it will be recognized if presented within 60 days of expiration. Voters with a disability may apply to the county registrar for an exemption.
*Select DPS offices will offer Saturday hours to provide Election Identification Certificates (EIC) to Texans in need of proper identification to vote. In addition to DPS' regular hours Monday-Friday, their offices will be open from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM through Saturday, November 2 to issue Election ID Certificates. No other transactions will be conducted during these special Saturday hours. The EIC is free of charge and valid for six years. There is no expiration date for Texans 70 years of age or older. To obtain an EIC, the application must provide documentation of U.S. citizenship and identity, be eligible to vote in Texas, be a Texas resident, and be 17 years and 10 months or older.
Differences in ID and Voter Registration Certificate
If the name and address on the approved photo identification does not exactly match the information on the voter registration card, please visit the Texas Secretary of State's website to update your name and address by October 7.
Provisional Ballots
If a voter shows up to their polling place and discovers that they do not have a valid form of photo identification, they will have to cast a provisional ballot. A provisional ballot will not count towards the election unless the voter takes additional action after election day to prove that they have the proper photo identification. In order for their vote to count, these voters have up to six days after the election to present to the county voter registrar appropriate photo identification.

PLGA String Printing: Custom G-code Tutorial
Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), or PLGA, is a common thermoplastic used in osteochondral tissue engineering. The degradation and mechanical properties of this material can be altered by adjusting the ratios of the copolymers polylactide and polyglycolide.
PLGA can create what is referred to as a stringing effect in 3D printing. While often considered undesirable, this effect can be manipulated to achieve a finer resolution with this material. To utilize this feature, custom gcode must be written to create specific designs. While most prints can and should be easily prepared without developing custom gcode through the use of Slic3r, manually editing print files allows users the versatility to adjust and create unique print processes. If not using the stringing effect, Slic3r is suggested to prepare print files.
Writing a Custom G-Code for String Printing
Custom code for string printing can be a bit challenging and requires some thought on the desired tool path to create a certain geometry. To create a thin line by extorting the stringing effect from PLGA, some material must be extruded at the beginning of the desired line then again at the end of the desired line. The movement between the two lines must be very fast to achieve a finer line. The video below depicts a simplified version of this process.
When depositing material at the beginning and end of a line, the z-height is set lower than the layer height. Then the z-height is brought higher than the layer height to minimize effects of crossover with previously deposited lines.
The video above demonstrates the basic concept of string printing. First, some material is deposited on the print bed. Next, the extruder moves quickly from this first point to the next, leaving a thin "string" of material before depositing some more material at the end point. The extruder is raised in between the starting and end points of these lines to minimize crossover effects with previously extruded material.
Common Commands
Below are some common gcode commands used with the BioBot 1. More information on gcodes can be found in this RepRapWiki article.
G1 [X{X position}] [Y{Y position}] [Z{Z position}] [E{Extruder position}] [F{Feedrate}]will move the extruder in a line to the given position
- Feedrate is in units of mm/min and positions of X,Y and Z are in mm
- For the BioBot 1, a line of G1 with an extruder position included will cause the printer to extrude material
- example:
G1 X1 Y1 Z1 E0.1 F200 ; will move extruder to the position X1 Y1 Z1 at a rate of 200 mm/min
- example:
- A line of
G1code without an extruder position will move the extruder without depositing material
- example:
G1 X1 Y1 Z1 F200; will move extruder to the position X1 Y1 Z1 at a rate of 200 mm/min without extruding material
- example:
G4pauses the printer in its current state for a given amount of time
G4 PXXwill pause the printer for XX millseconds
G4 SXXwill pause the printer for XX seconds
G92sets the position of the extruder
- the line
G92 E0is used for BioBots printers to start the extrusion process
T0selects extruder 1
T1selects extruder 2
- Formatting
- the semicolon
;can be used to create comments in your gcode
- As you create continuous lines of code to extrude, your number after E must continuously increase. You can reset this sequence with
- the semicolon
Example Code Sequence
Let's say we are trying to create a 2 layer 10 mm line, starting at X,Y and Z positions of (0,0,0.2), with a layer height of 0.2 mm and speed of 2 mm/s. For a traditional printing method, a code like something below would be used.
; Sample Code – I can label my code and create comments by writing text after a semicolon
T0 ; select left extruder for this print
G92 E0 ; set position of extruder
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.2 F120 ; Move extruder to (0,0,0.2) at a rate of 120 mm/min without extruding material
G1 X5 Y0 Z0.2 E0.1 F120 ; Move extruder to (5,0,0.2) at rate of 120 mm/min and extrude material
G1 X10 Y0 Z0.2 E0.2 F120 ; Move extruder to (10,0,0.2) at rate of 120 mm/min and continue to extrude
G92 E0 ; I am finished my first layer, so I use this command as a reset
G1 X10 Y0 Z0.4 F120 ; move extruder to (10,0,0.4) at rate of 120 mm/min without extruding material
G1 X5 Y0 Z0.4 E0.1 F120 ; move extruder to (5,0,0.4) at rate of 120 mm/min and extrude material
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.4 E0.2 F120 ; move extruder to (0,0,0.4) at rate of 120 mm/min and extrude material
For a stringing method, the code would look more like this:
; Sample Code
T0 ; select left extruder for this print
G92 E0 ; set position of extruder
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.1 F120 ; Move extruder to (0,0,0.2) at a rate of 120 mm/min without extruding material
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.1 E0.1 F120 ; Begin extruding material
G4 S2 E0.2 ; Continue extruding material for 2 seconds
G1 Z0.2 ; move extruder up to height of Z0.2
G1 X10 Y0 Z0.2 F600 ; Move to position (10,0,0.2) at speed of 600 mm/min to create thin line
G1 Z0.1 ; Move z-height back down to 0.1 mm
G1 X10 Y0 Z0.1 E0.1 F120 ; confirm position
G4 S2 ; Extrude for 2 seconds
G1 X10 Y0 Z0.4 F120 ; move z-height up to 0.4 mm
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.4 F600 ; move extruder quickly to (0,0,0.4) to create thin line
G1 X0 Y0 Z0.2 E0.1 F120 ; move z-height to position of 0.2 mm and turn on extrusion
G4 S2 E0.2 ; continue extrusion for 2 seconds

What is the extended metaphor in the poem "Continuum" by Allen Curnow and what is its significance?
- print Print
- list Cite
One interpretation of "Continuum" is that it is a poem about writing. It is writing about writing. There is an analogy between individual experience as observation and individual writing.
In the first line of the poem, the narrator describes the moon travelling through the sky. The moon is a common symbol of mystery, femininity, madness, and inspiration. Just as he's about to indulge in this Romantic symbol and landscape, the narrator says that he was not actually talking about the moon; he was talking about himself.
In the second stanza, the narrator notes that he can not sleep. At this point, the narrator decides to go for a walk and leans out from the porch into the surrounding environment. The poem ends with the narrator going back inside, walking with "the author."
Turn on a bare
heel, close the door behind
on the author, cringing demiurge, who picks up
his litter and his tools and paces me back
to bed, stealthily in step.
The narrator and the author are two but the same person. In this case, the sleepwalking and inability to "think thoughts" is a case of writer's block. That's a simplistic explanation but has more profound implications for a poet who, like a demiurge, is trying to create or describe a significant moment in the world.
The narrator began the poem in Romantic style, describing a scene in nature perhaps en route to suggesting a sense of universality. But the narrator abruptly moves to a self-reflexive consideration. He attempts to describe objects in his surroundings but finds himself thinking about his own act of creating. He states but also asks (query) that/if the clouds are like dust. One cloud is his and the other is an adversary. He then flippantly or uncertainly says this all depends "on the wind, or something." The writer/narrator, as a demiurge, is caught in some sort of self-reflexive writer's block where he is stuck dwelling on his paradoxical (passive/active) role of observer and creator.
As a philosopher might redundantly think about the experience of experience, Curnow might be writing about writing, or writing about the experience of writing. The extended metaphor is more of an analogy of writing and experience: both involve passive observation and active (conscious) creation of the surrounding world. Therefor, there is a continuum between the poet and the poem just as there is a continuum between the individual and experience/the world. The narrator recognizes that he is like a demiurge; he is of the same stuff that he is experiencing/writing about. Experience and writing are indispensable bridges (continuum) between the individual and the world, or the poet and the poem. In this interpretation, this poem is about that continuum.

Kaleigh Starshine left a comment on last week's show:
"I am a bit uneasy about posting this, as I do not want anyone to misinterpret what I write here as making light of the Guardian's plight or the frustrations of its players in any way. But I think a juxtaposition may help reveal how badly Burglars are in need of help.
Whereas Guardians are one of the many classes that can solo group content, Burglars are often excluded from such content, with extreme prejudice. The very few who play Burglars at endgame now and wish to equip them usually go through the instances and raids with other classes, and then switch to their Burglar to bring them into the instance before the chests are opened, to have a chance for their loot.
Whereas Guardians now have one trait line that is subpar, all three of the Burglar lines are absolutely anemic, and since all three do virtually the same things, Burglars are the least able of all the classes to adapt to their circumstance, an odd reality for a 'rogue' class which would normally have the opposite reputation.
Whereas Guardians save their fellowships time and time again, success in group endeavors comes in spite of a Burglar's presence, and failure often because of it. Not necessarily because of poor play, mind you, but simply due to the hard limits that shackle the class and the absolute metamorphosis of the game as a whole, in which a class like the Burglar would never be developed in its current state..
Legions upon legions of players have abandoned the Burglar, as has Turbine, it would seem. I am hopeful regarding Edgecase's stated wish to give us some attention. But the last developer that spoke such things suddenly 'disappeared' not long after.
Please do not make Edgecase disappear, Turbine! He/she seems very nice! :)"

"I can now give you my thoughts without spoiling anything for you.
The Epic in update 18 is probably the best that they have ever done, and is my favorite to date, but could have been better.
As an example Vol 4 Book 5 Chapter 8 – The Ride of the Rohirrim, is one of the best parts of the Peter Jackson films, with Bernard Hill wonderful narration, and I don't understand why Turbine did not narrate this instance.
The real problem for me though is Vol 4 Book 6 Chapter 9 – The City Stands. I cannot think of scenarios where Turbine have changed what is in the books to suit their story.
Horn is buried in Mounds of Mundburg outside of Edoras in the book, Turbine decided that Halros would be buried there instead of Horn, but as Horn. I know the Rangers are pretty useless in the game, but I am sure that Aragorn would be very uncomfortable with this happening and would have stopped it.
As you aware by now Horn dying now depends on Halros, and I have no idea why these two characters have been linked. If you choose in Vol 3 Book 1 – Halros should stay, then Horn possibly does die, can't confirm this as I can't remember which of my toons I selected Halros should stay, and will probably find out from Pineleaf's playthrough on his Beorning as fortunately I suggested that he pick Halros should stay.
This was unnecessary and should not have taken place, Horn dies at the Pelennor fields.
Finally as a Premium Player was not happy at the very high cost of U18, and the small number of quests that you got which were not part of the Epic."

"(Could Arathaert read this in Kermit's voice?) Hi-ho there LOTRO Players News. Wanted to send y'all an email and tell you that y'all are doing great! Had a question for you all. What is the primary set of Virtues you use? I am looking for a set that is good for mixed solo/group play.
Thanks for such a great (maybe even Legendary) show. I have been listening to the podcast since the start. From Pineleaf the skirmish master to Andang (and Tom Bombadil. Yes Andang you can do the Hey-Do-Merry-Do!) and all the hosts in-between great show. Keep up the good work!

a new technology, which provides for regeneration of engines, gearboxes, differentials and other devices, where metal to metal friction occurs. A ceramic layer is formed owing to combination and difussion of Ceramizer® particles with metal particles moving about in the oil.
What is important, there is no need for dismantling of the device.
The process of regeneration and building of a ceramic layer takes place automatically, already after 200 km/125 miles from the moment of adding the product (engine additive, gearbox additive) to oil first positive effects are noticeable.
Read more in section "How does it work", and see our tests (including test of driving without oil, industrial tests) and testimonials (over 250 pages).
More informations:
Ceramizer® is based on a unique technology that will rebuild and restore worn surfaces by covering them with a ceramic-metal coating.
The restoration process is performed without disassembling the affected units, during their normal operation. Just add the Ceramizer® additives to the oil (in the motor, gearbox, power drive systems).
The Ceramizer® is not an oil thickener or so-called "motor-doctor" – one Ceramizer additive dose is only 4 gram. Ceramizer® does not contain teflon, lead, molybdenum, they do not clogg oil filters or oil ducts since Ceramizer® particles are smaller than filter pores.
The effects of engine restore after adding Ceramizer last for 70 000 km / 40 000 miles, also after changing the oil. Independent tests and many user testimonials (over 250 pages gathered so far) confirm complete safety of using Ceramizer engine treatment and gearbox treatment.
Are Ceramizers best engine and gearbox addtives?
See for yourself and test them!
Watch extreme test - 562 km / 350 without an oil in the engine.

What effect does Emily's father have on her life in "A Rose for Emily?"
- print Print
- list Cite
Miss Emily is cloistered in her house, having been "protected" by her father when he was alive and kept safe in the house. Emily's father is depicted in a photo as standing in front of Emily and this dominating, protective position signifies a permanent status for Emily. She is kept away from the potential for dishonor and kept away from a normal life.
While he is living, Emily's father keeps potential suitors away from Emily. He protects her, effectively, by making sure she remains alone.
After her father dies, Emily continues to "cling to that which robbed her" and maintains her protected, cloistered state.
Her father prevents her from dating anyone because he doesn't believe any of the men in Jefferson are good enough for her, and after his death, Emily continues to isolate herself from the rest of the community for the better part of her life.
The desire for honor above companionship and for appearance above reality is implied in the behavior of Emily and her father. They each attempt to maintain an appearance of pride and integrity even while they exist in a state of dissolution, decay, and death.

Who Counsels Parents of Newborns Who Are Carriers of Sickle Cell Anemia or Cystic Fibrosis?
- 628 Downloads
- Citations
Our objective was to describe: 1) physicians' knowledge of whether genetic counseling is provided to parents of newborns with sickle cell trait (SCT) or who are cystic fibrosis carriers (CFC), and 2) the prevalence of genetic counseling provided by primary care physicians. We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive survey of 600 randomly-sampled Michigan-based pediatricians and family physicians, assessing physician knowledge of where and whether genetic counseling is received by parents whose newborns are carriers. Chi-squared testing determined associations between genetic counseling location and physician demographic characteristics. Our response rate was 62 %: 298 (84 %) provided infant well care (183 pediatricians, 115 family physicians). Most respondents were non-Hispanic White (65 %). Virtually all physicians believed parents whose newborns are carriers of either SCT or CFC should receive some genetic counseling (from the physician and/or another source), yet 20 % reported that parents of newborns with SCT did not receive counseling. Parents of infants with CFC received more counseling overall (92 % vs. 80 %; p < 0.01) and were counseled more frequently by genetic counselors or specialty centers than parents of newborns with SCT (85 % vs. 60 %; p < 0.01). Although physicians agreed that parents whose newborns are carriers should receive genetic counseling, fewer parents of newborns with SCT than with CFC received counseling from any source. This finding strongly suggests the need for further education and investigation of this apparent health disparity.

South African President Jacob Zuma survived an impeachment vote in parliament on Tuesday that was launched after the constitutional court ruled that he ignored an order to repay state funds spent on his private home.
Zuma had the support of the African National Congress (ANC), which controls almost two-thirds of the assembly. The president won with 233 lawmakers voting against the impeachment motion, while 143 voted in favour. Zuma did not attend the proceedings.
South Africa's Manuel joins those saying Zuma should resign
Former South African finance minister Trevor Manuel, who served under Nelson Mandela for 11 years, said President Jacob Zuma should resign after a scathing constitutional court ruling over state spending on his private home.
"I think it's in all our interest that the President actually steps aside," Manuel said in an interview published online by the Soweto TV channel as Zuma faced an impeachment debate in parliament.
