Lightweight Newmarket Handicap (1200m) chance Better Than Ready has ticked another box ahead of his Group 1 debut with a strong jump-out at Flemington this morning.
Top jockey Craig Williams partnered the Queensland colt in the 800m hit-out and he clocked a slick 46.48 seconds to edge out fellow three-year-olds Shamal Wind and Shamexpress.
It was an important familiarisation session for both Better Than Ready and Williams. Williams takes over the ride from regular jockey Rick McMahon who is unable to make the 50.5kg weight allocation.
Trainer Kelly Schweida said he could not resist throwing his hat into the Newmarket ring with such a favourable weight but is not getting carried away with his chances.
"That was the thing that persuaded us to come, the 50.5kg," Schweida told media at Flemington this morning.
"Even if he could run in the top five he'd certainly be on track for a promising horse."
The Brisbane trainer takes confidence out of the More Than Ready colt's Brian Crowley Stakes win in October where he broke the Randwick 1200m track record.
"He ran good time in Sydney when he won. They all said there was a tailwind but it's probably not the first time there has been a tailwind at Randwick," Schweida said.
Giving Schweida further reason to be optimistic is the form out of that race, with runner-up Jolie Bay finishing second to Nechita in the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes in November.
"The form around him is pretty good," he said.
Better Than Ready has had two lead-up runs, running second at Eagle Farm on February 9 before storming home to claim the Listed Falvelon Handicap by three lengths on February 23.
The emerging galloper's career record stands at five wins from eight starts.

After a trip that has lasted nearly four years, Seattle's boring machine Bertha, which is digging the new Highway 99 tunnel to replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct, is expected to reach the end of its journey Tuesday.
WSDOT said the cutter head was about 30 feet from reaching the disassembly pit. Tunneling was expected to resume at 8 a.m. It's expected to arrive at the wall sometime in the late morning or early afternoon. A WSDOT spokesperson says the arrival will not be dramatic -- appearing as more of a puff of smoke as it reaches the 5-foot thick wall. It could take several hours before the cutter head emerges.
#BerthaBreakthrough is nearly upon us. Final prep tonight, big day planned for tomorrow. https://t.co/CyCNFXeTN4 pic.twitter.com/3tqWViRiDk— Bertha (@BerthaDigsSR99) April 3, 2017
The pit is located just east of Aurora Avenue and north of the Battery Street Tunnel. That's where the big machine will be taken apart.
Although digging will be finished, it will be nearly two more years before the tunnel opens to traffic. The double-decker lanes and other infrastructure still need to be added.
The drill began overheating in late 2013, prompting long delays as it was repaired. Litigation is underway to determine who will pay for close to $500 million in cost overruns. But there have been no major stoppages since digging resumed in December of 2015.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

We lucked out and the worst of the storm went south of us. I hear it snarled traffic near Little Rock into a multi-hour backup with some people stuck in their vehicles overnight. This is the same southern storm that is hitting the east and may turn into a nor'easter for New England.

Former home of Margaret Thatcher where she raised her young family is on the market
THE home where Margaret Thatcher raised her young family before making the momentous decision to return to politics has emerged for sale.
The London home where Margaret Thatcher raised her young family is up for sale
The Iron Lady lived at the two bedroom flat in Chelsea, west London, with new husband Dennis and their twins Mark and Carol between 1951 and 1957.
During her time at 112 Swan Court she refrained from politics in order to focus on her children and home, having already made two failed attempts at becoming an MP.
A letter she wrote in 1953 to Conservative Party vice chairman John Hare stated: "Having unexpectedly produced twins... I think I had better not be considered as a candidate for another six months.
"The household needs reorganisation... before I can feel free to pursue such other activities with the necessary fervour."
It's great to take people inside and tell them 'Margaret Thatcher used to live here'
Mrs Thatcher withdrew from politics for three years and it wasn't until 1956 that she signalled her intent to return.
Shortly after leaving the flat Mrs Thatcher was elected MP for Finchley, paving the way for her to become Britain's first female Prime Minister 20 years later.
She went on to say that "any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country," presumably referencing her time at Swan Court.
The Swan Court home in Chelsea is on sale for £1.2million
The property, which is located just off the Kings Road and boasts spectacular views over the city, is for sale for £1.2m through estate agents Strutt & Parker.
Built in 1930, the rectangular 1,200sqft flat has two bedrooms, a dining room, living room and kitchen.
In her memoirs Thatcher described the sixth floor property as "light with a fine view of London".
The Iron Lady lived with her children and husband in the property from 1951 to 1957
Estate agent Edward Thomson said: "We see lots of wonderful properties but what makes this particularly special is that it was lived in by such an iconic figure as Margaret Thatcher.
"She's a Marmite character but whether you love her or loathe her there's no doubt about her significance in history, and that's interesting.
"It's great to take people inside and tell them 'Margaret Thatcher used to live here', it's a fantastic talking point and certainly something I mention.
Mrs Thatcher described the sight from the window as 'a fine view of London'
"It's vitally important that we have the letters she sent at the time because that proves without doubt she did live there.
"From researching her history we came to learn that her time spent at Swan Court was very significant."
He added: "It's incredibly difficult to find properties of this size in Chelsea for such a low price. "Once refurbished I would expect it to be worth up to £2.5million.
Estate agents think that the property could be worth £2.5million once refurbished
"The beauty of this flat is that it will appeal to every kind of buyer, from the young first time buying family to the elderly couple looking to downsize."
Prospective buyers may wish to alter the layout, which is the same as it was during Thatcher's stay, and carry out a refurbishment.
The residence is modestly priced for its location because the lease expires in 2041, with an extension likely to cost around £600,000.

We all know that baseball can sometimes be a very dangerous spectator sport, but thanks to the Florida Gators' mascot, one boy made it out of the park unscathed.
Video shared by the Florida Gators on Twitter shows Albert, the school's beloved mascot, shielding a young fan from a foul ball headed in their direction.
RELATED: "Help! Fire!" Parrots rescued after screaming for help
Albert heroically took a ball to the face to save the young fan. He slumped over, pretending to be knocked out afterward.
The kid, clearly grateful for the save, proceeded to give Albert CPR.

When you open a new bank account, there may be certain limitations and restrictions that you want set up on the account. For example, limited transactions and dual signatures help you properly manage funds, prevent overspending or stop unwanted transactions. Most banks have different ways of helping you open an account that meets your specific needs, whether it be a personal or business account.
Talk to your bank representative about your concerns and need for account restrictions. It may be that the account is a business account where you will have authorized signers other than yourself. It may be joint account where you are concerned about the other person being a spend-thrift. Be candid about what you need to make sure you get the right types of restrictions on your account.
Choose an account structure that designates a maximum number of transactions within a designated time frame. This may be check writing, total withdrawals or ATM withdrawals.
Decide if the account needs to be on a "dual signature" structure when designating authorized signers or joint account holders. This requires all checks and withdrawal slips to have signatures of two account signers before the funds can be released. Open your new account.
Set up online banking with the new account. Set up automatic bill pay for any and all regular payments. This reduces the number of checks that need to be written and the need for keeping a checkbook laying around. Limit the access to this system to yourself and never share the password with anyone else.

Pfizer Eyes Growth in ChinaJanuary 15th, 2010 | Sources: Wall Street Journal
Subjects: Pharmaceuticals
Pfizer, the world's largest drugmaker, has announced plans to pursue aggressive sales growth and market-share targets in China. In doing so, it hopes to take advantage of the nation's unmet needs for health care which have been prompted by an economic boom and an associated increase in diabetes and hypertension.
In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Pfizer's Regional President of North Asia Allan Gabor said the company wants to increase sales in China by 25% per year.
"When you look at where we are in China today, even though our growth rate is high, the market share is relatively low. And that's a function of … the nature of the competition here, and the fact that patent law wasn't really established until 1993," Gabor told the Journal.
Pfizer is well positioned in the cardiovascular disease market with the blockbusters Lipitor (for cholesterol) and Norvasc (for high blood pressure). Last month, Pfizer rounded out this portfolio by announcing a deal to help Takeda Pharmaceuticals market Actos, a drug for type 2 diabetes, in China.
Pfizer is already the largest foreign pharmaceutical company on the mainland, yet it controls only 2% of the market. The Chinese pharmaceutical market is remarkably fragmented, with thousands of local players in the mix.
The market for pharmaceuticals in China rose 27% last year, and most forecasters believe it will grow by at least 20% per year in the foreseeable future.
Pfizer's recent acquisition of Wyeth will help. The latter's pneumococcal vaccine, Prevnar, was "one of the most successful product launches in China history," Gabor said. Wyeth also adds the popular vitamin supplement Centrum, and baby formula which became popular after last year's melamine scare.
Pfizer's move comes about 2 months after Swiss pharmaceutical giant Novartis announced it will invest $1 billion into an R&D facility in Shanghai.

"Confidently take up the Rosary once again!". - Pope John Paul II
In the Archdiocese of Toronto, September 2003 to September 2004 was the Year of the Rosary. On May 30, our Timber Wolves and Explorers, as well as some youth from the community, joined together to form a living rosary at our home parish, Blessed Trinity.
Each of us represented a bead of the Rosary around the Altar, offering our prayers to God with Father Sheehy, now a Monsignor, presiding over the gathering.
As we pray the Rosary together we join Mary in contemplating Christ. With her, we remember Christ, we proclaim Him, we learn from Him, and most importantly, as we raise our voices in prayer and our hearts in contemplation of the holy mysteries.
From experience with our youth by praying the rosary together we know that it is true when Pope John Paul II said: "It is also beautiful and fruitful to entrust to this prayer the growth and development of children. Does the Rosary not follow the life of Christ, from his conception to his death, and then his Resurrection and his glory? To pray the Rosary for children, and even more with children, training them from their earliest years to experience this daily pause for prayer is admittedly not the solution to every problem, but is a spiritual aid which should not be underestimated! "
Praying the Rosary together at camp or at special events has brought us a great deal of peace, love and harmony while growing closer to our Lord Jesus Christ with the help of his and our Blessed Mother, Mary.
After crowning Mary and putting a rosary in her hands (since she is so closely linked with the rosary), we venerated her with flowers. Seen below is an explorer reading one of the mysteries of the rosary. This was a very eventful day that we were glad to share with the community and our parish.

Today I finished modifying the doorbell with which I started yesterday. I drilled a 4.5 mm hole through the back of the doorbell and led a solid core CAT5 cable through that hole. This cable will be used to connect the doorbell switch and the 2 LEDs (a white and blue one) to the Jeenode that will be placed in the fuse box which is only 2 meters away. The legs of the LED were bent sideways right there where they come out of the LED housing and these legs were temporarily glued to the doorbell housing to secure the position of the LED for easy soldering. You can still see some residue of the glue (the white blur on the housing surface) where the legs of the right LED touch the doorbell housing.
To get a good insulation from the outside world, I pushed the cable through the hole, put hot glue on it and pulled the cable back a few millimeters; this should suffice for proper insulation. After the wires were cut to the right length and soldered to the legs of the LEDs, it was time to check if everything was working. So I put the 2 halves of the doorbell housing on each other, pressed them firmly, and put the other side of the wire on a breadboard. With a 5V power supply, two 330 Ω resistors and a multimeter I convinced myself that everything was OK.
BTW, it's a good thing I didn't choose red as one of the colors for the LEDs; otherwise, a visitor might think he's being held at gunpoint by a sniper with laser sight 🙂 In other words, the LEDs are a bit too bright, so I think I'll use a higher resistor value in the final version – that's why I left the resistors out of the housing in the first place, cause I was anticipating "tuning" issues like this.
Well, now that I have verified that the doorbell is working OK, I can move on to the next step: the JeeNode, some more hardware and the software that goes with it!

Small Business
Small business owners generally don't know a lot about marketing – either on the net, or traditionally. And this makes sense, because the owner of a boutique or fashion store is concentrating on managing the shop and handling the customers in front of them.
But this does tell you where you can get an advantage over the competition. If you can find the time to learn a bit about the marketing techniques that have been demonstrated to work, and apply just one or 2 at a time, you're doing more than a lot of other guys and can get an edge. You don't have to be the best marketer around – only better than the others in your area.
You can find some fast techniques to start off with on our pages about shop mannequins and display mannequins.

Siberian archaeology — the end of the season
First of all Vyacheslav Molodin has focused on excavations in the complex of Tartas-1 Vengerovsky district of Novosibirsk region. Portal Scientific Russia already talked about the mysterious graves found near the Old village of Tartas. This year archaeologists have examined about 2 thousand square metres, found the remains of dwellings and a variety of things. Found even the Neolithic was the construction of fish processing. The archaeologists used geophysical equipment — magnetometers — and made a map of potential sites for future excavations.
Continued excavations in the Novosibirsk region and "Vengerovo-2", where the bronze age settlement (about it also wrote the portal of Scientific Russia ). In Vengerovo was made a rare find — absolutely a vessel. In addition, this year there was found a mold for the manufacture of bronze axes. Tellingly, it was made from imported stone, and, apparently, could withstand up to 200 castings.Here's another proof of the constant mixing of cultures that occurred in Siberia.
And in the Kolyvan district of the Novosibirsk region was found in Mongolian burial related in XIII-XIV centuries. In grave discovered the woman's headdress, bun, clearly Mongol origin. And lie near the Western Siberian things. This woman, who lived far to the North from the centres of the Mongolian Empire clearly used local things, and, says Vyacheslav Molodin, "was integrated into the local environment." Continue reading
Learn to look for fossils and be saved from insects
Got up early. The day here starts at 5 and ends at 9, because of the darkness.
After Breakfast, immediately proceeded to business: today has scanned the skull of a Rhino. The skull consisted of two parts: the upper and lower jaw. Scanned in less than an hour, and since the skull could "disassemble" the scan has turned out amazingly detailed: you can look in your mouth and inspect every tooth on all sides.
Today Louis invited us to the nearest place of excavation to show how it actually works. The excavations so far nothing major is found, but will definitely find: the place is extremely gracious. Louis immediately taught us how to identify minerals by color, structure and pattern. After that, it immediately became clear what she was talking about yesterday: fossils are EVERYWHERE. Just lying on the ground: bones of animals, fish, fossil remains of trees, in large numbers.
The remains of the hippopotamus: phalanx.
While it was windy, Louis decided to make a Photomap of the area. This is done by hanging the Camera to the kite. The survey area occurs in high resolution at an altitude of about 50 meters.
Meanwhile Francisco was able to talk with local volunteers. They say that 10 years ago, their life was very different: all were very poor and lived with the only hope to ever leave the city to get work. Family Louise Leakey gave local residents the opportunity to work, to help paleontologists, to feel needed. Love them very much, and sincerely grateful for the opportunity to change your future.

In the West of Greece to the construction of the highway discovered the ruins of an ancient settlement
The ruins of a previously unknown ancient city discovered by archaeologists in the West of Greece.
The discovery was made during construction of major highways "Ionia Odos" (Ionian road) in the city Alikina near It.
Place excavations have already visited the Minister of infrastructure, transport and networks Michalis message Hrisohoidis.
The first results of the excavations show that it was an ancient city center. Scientists expect to obtain additional data in further studies.
Now for the archaeological site rests with the Central archaeological Council of Greece and the Ministry of culture and sports. According to Chrisochoidis, so far studied only a small part of the city.
Officials are concerned about the place of discovery of the ancient settlement, which is located practically on the construction site and near it, from which the works on construction of motorway section were suspended. Continue reading

Florida Panthers (29-34-10 68 points)
Chicago Blackhawks (39-25-8 86 Points)
Wednesday, March 23, 2011 8:30 PM; United Center, Chicago, IL
TV: FS-Florida, CSN-Chicago
RADIO: 560 WQAM (Miami) 720 AM WGN (Chicago)
* * *
DAY 2: Just 22 1/2 hours after starting their game in New York, the Panthers will drop the puck on another game, this time in Chicago against the Blackhawks. The Cats dropped a heart breaker 1-0 to the Rangers last night, and arrived into Chciago around 1:00 AM (central). Florida is looking to play spoiler, while Chicago looks to fight for their playoff lives. The "Wild Wild West" is still wide open, with only 6 points separating 4th and 10th place.
SEASON SERIES: Florida holds the lead in the season series
1-0. The Blackhawks are one of the few Western Conference teams the Panthers play twice. The Panthers hosted the Blackhawks on March 8, the second game of a season-high 7 game homestand. Florida took a 3-0 lead after 1 period, but Chicago came back to score 2 in the 2nd, but ended up losing 3-2. Now, with Florida in the midst of their season high 5 game road trip, and looking to bounce back.
|Reasoner (front/center) with other
brothers of NHL players at
Boston College
PLAYING HURT: The Panthers were without goalie Scott Clemmenson yesterday. Tyler Plante was called up from the AHL. He did not make it in time for the morning skate. Wall Street trader Adam Reasoner (brother of the Panthers' Marty Reasoner) stepped in on his lunch break. Reasoner was a goalie at Boston College...he appeared in just 1 game in the 2005-06 season, his freshman year. Clemmenson will not play Wednesday
Also playing hurt is Stephen Weiss. He was out on Tuesday with a leg injury. He is expected to play on Wednesday. Jack Skille and Shawn Matthias made their returns Tuesday, with Patrick Rissmiller being sent to Rochester.
ONE MORE WELCOME HOME: Skille returns to Chicago for the first time since being traded in February. The injury kept him out for a few weeks, and he has appeared in just 8 games for the Panthers this year. Skille has 7 goals this year, all with the Blackhawks, but does have an assist with the Panthers. Michael Frolik continues to struggle in Chicago. He only has two goals in 18 games with the Hawks, while scoring 8 with Florida. He scored 21 goals in his first two seasons in Florida.

Yaroslavl memorial ceremony
An estimated 100,000 people attended memorial ceremonies Saturday for the victims of the plane crash that killed 43 of the 45 people on board -- most of whom were members of the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl hockey team. The general funeral ceremony took place at the arena in Yaroslavl, Russia. The ceremony for Ruslan Salei took place in his hometown of Minsk, Belarus, and the ceremony for Vitaliy Anikeyenko and Daniil Sobchenko was held in their hometown of Kiev, Ukraine.

The government has increased the age to which all young people in England must continue in education or training, requiring them to continue until the end of the academic year in which they turn 17 from and until their 18th birthday.
This does not necessarily mean staying in school; young people have a choice about how they continue in education or training post-16, which could be through the following routes:
Academic (A levels in 6th form)
Vocational (Diploma at college or other local training provider)
Work-based (Apprenticeship or other employment with training)
All Year 11 students will be invited for a careers interview with an impartial, qualified Careers Guidance Counsellor. This is a chance for them to discuss their aspirations, to find out about a range of opportunities and to make decisions that are right for their future. Each student will be provided with an action plan outlining a summary of the discussion and how to move the plan forward.

Netanyahu exploiting south Tel Aviv's hardships to attack asylum seekers
Netanyahu has asylum seekers right where he wants them. He can exploit the hardships of south Tel Aviv residents to continue inciting against the Supreme Court, the media, and human rights organizations. By Yossi Dahan After years in which Netanyahu did not set foot in south Tel Aviv, the prime minister came to the area last week for two visits. The first visit was highly publicized, and the second — with Interior Minister Aryeh Deri — was undercover. For Netanyahu, the timing of the visits was perfect: a week after Israel's High Court ruled that asylum seekers cannot be deported to third…Read More... | 7 Comments

Anybody here to help?
I'm getting SSL when visiting your website.
@faizi The question is:
SSL site https://genupdates.com/ is not redirected to https://www.genupdates.com/ ( not working )
Non-SSL site http://genupdates.com/ is redirecting to https://www.genupdates.com/ (Working)
What is wrong with https://genupdates.com/ and why it is not redirecting to www
I see.
Try this:

No Luck, is there any way to do it with wordpress. I think all server config is good and I have reinstalled site on a new server. All config files are untouched.
or any other way to do it with DNS
Did you create the site with:
ee site create www.genupdates.com
ee site create genupdates.com
ee site create www.genupdates.com --wpfc --letsencrypt
could you try recreate the site with non-www domain,
ee site create genupdates.com --wpfc --letsencrypt
and what are your digital ocean dns entry?
@faizi Hey, I have fixed the problem. I have edited ssl config file and /sites-available/ vhost file
@genupdates mind sharing with us what update you make to the file?
Hey @genupdates, Do share your config bro.
Thank you.
From your configuration, I can see no issues except what @faizi suggests as an addition. I assume that this issue had to do with the db entries of WP, so sharing your workaround would help others for sure aswell.
In case you have issues in the future, this tool might be a saving one: https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/
Its actually a db tool that helps you replace every text instance. It also includes serialized data. Replacing every http:// instance with https:// works like charm and solved strange issues to the WP, in case EE config is just fine, like in your case.
Sorry I was offline

Steve Sanborn, founder of the Crossroads pro-life walk, is sort of my brother-in-law, once removed. His sister Maureen is married to my brother Matt, and while we don't see each other very often, we do keep in touch sporadically online.
Last year, Maureen made me aware that Steve was putting together a documentary called "Thine Eyes: A Witness to the March for Life." Since then, I've been following along as the film progressed, with filming taking place during this year's March.
The documentary is now out, and is in its promotional phase. Today, at World Net Daily, the emmy-award winning writer/producer who put together the film, Jack Cashill, talked about some unusual goings on with Notre Dame University during pre-production and filming:
We all agreed that it would add value to track the marchers as they journeyed across country. John Carroll High School of Birmingham, Ala., readily agreed to let us put a camera on one of its busses as did Missouri Right To Life, a non-denominational group out of St.. Louis.
We wanted a college group as well. Sanborn had contacts at Notre Dame University, and they too seemed eager to participate. Given Notre Dame's status as the iconic Catholic university, we all thought the university's participation a good idea.
As the Jan. 22 date approached, however, Sanborn started getting mixed signals out of Notre Dame. The administration was proving as unhelpful as his contacts had been helpful.
Just a week before the march, Deborah J. Gabaree, the university's assistant vice president and counsel, sent us a "memorandum of understanding," the intent of which seems clearer in these last few weeks.
The memorandum included any number of terms that were simply impossible to meet, all of which served the ostensible purpose of protecting "the University's character as a Catholic institution of higher learning."
These included a million dollar insurance policy "with a company acceptable to the University" and the real deal killer Notre Dame's right to review in advance both the documentary itself and all of its marketing materials lest either "imply endorsement" by the university.
It was as if we were proposing to produce a tell-all exposé titled, "The Real Rudy."
Considering that the camera on the Notre Dame bus was just one of six we had assigned to the shoot, and that the students on the bus were only loosely tied to the university, the administration's demands seemed madly presumptuous.
When I asked Sanborn whether the resistance was just routine boilerplate or active obstruction, he said obstruction. As far as he could tell, the Notre Dame administration did not want our camera on the bus.
The reason seemed clear enough even then: The university had no interest in seeing its name publicly associated with something as unblushingly Christian as the March For Life.
Notre Dame's honoring of the aggressively pro-choice Obama sends another message, namely that beyond the marketing of its football program to "subway alumni," the university has little use for its Catholic identity.
The image-consciousness seems to have filtered down to the university's pro-life students, at least some of them. The Genocide Awareness Project (GAP) reports an odd encounter with the Fighting Irish in Washington.
At the March, as elsewhere, GAP sets up vivid displays linking abortion to history's other genocidal enterprises. A pro-lifer could question the effectiveness of these displays, or even their taste, but not their logic.
The Notre Dame students went well beyond questioning. According to GAP, they approached GAP director Gregg Cunningham and demanded that the signs be removed.
"Is this some kind of joke," Cunningham asked. "Do you work for Planned Parenthood?"
No, they were from Notre Dame. The GAP newsletter considers it "a bizarre tragedy" that ostensibly pro-life students would use "the exact same evidence-suppressing tactics outlined by Students for Choice."
GAP here misses the big picture. If a TV camera had picked up a Notre Dame banner passing before an image of an aborted fetus, that might "imply endorsement," and President Obama might not have consented to honor the university with his presence.
And from Notre Dame's perspective, an Obama turndown would have smarted even more than the football team's 15 losses in just the last two seasons.
Something that the Notre Dame Obama Controversy has clearly shed light on is that a strong constituency of devoted pro-lifers exist within the Notre Dame student body. That fact makes Cashill's observations about the actions of some of those students all the more upsetting. Notre Dame's actions in regard to the filmmakers of "Thine Eyes" and the members of the Genocide Awareness Project seems to shed even more light on the increasingly tenuous connection of the prestigious university with its once-Catholic identity.

Le Rivage Ratings and Reviews
Excellent dining experience as always. We were in the city to see the Dowingtown Exhibit. Wanted a classic French meal . We were not disappointed. Everything about the place is superior. We have been going there for over thirty years. Will continue to dine there.
Le Rivage is our "go to" spot for dining before theatre. The fixed price menu has many selections, including the great French classics. Unlike most French restaurants, it is an excellent price performer. The setting is quiet, relaxing, nice paintings on the walls, attentive service with a welcoming touch. We say "bien fait" to this gem right in the middle of the theatre district.
We have enjoyed many meals at Le Rivage prior to and after theater events in NYC. The fixed price menu makes the process quick to order. The staff is very focused on getting tables served when timing may be an issue. Excellent and attentive service.
The dining room is crowded with not much room to walk but the noise level is still ok for conversation. The food is excellent and reminds us of visits to Paris. Family favorites are; escargots, calves liver, venison (a special), frog legs (grenouille), beef bourguignon and lamb chops.
Highly recommend Le Rivage.
Everything was wonderful. There were many great choices on the lunch prix fix menu. We all had trout almondide for our entrees. It was moist and very well prepared. We all liked our appetizers and deserts that were all different. We also had wonderful service.
We have always seen Le Rivage as our go-to pre-theater choice. While food and service were still excellent, the way the tables are sandwiched together made a quiet conversation impossible. Further, the steak knives were so bad that cutting meat was a chore, diminishing our enjoyment of dinner.
Never underestimate a burger in a fine restaurant. My son ordered the French onion soup burger, which I had my eye on. I had the venison special. All the meals were good but that burger was over the top. Recommend the Pate, escargot, and yes a burger. Prefix menu price I thought we might be rushed prior to show, not at all. Very relaxed and 2 hours later ended with creme brûlée. Hope this helps, enjoy your dinner.
We came for the much-lauded French Onion Soup Burger - and we're glad we did. It did not disappoint. The$29 prix-fixe is a wonderful deal. My friend and I split all of our dishes and enjoyed them all. We got the frisee salad, pate, burger, boeuf bourguignon, creme brulee, and the tarte du jour - a peach tart. Definitely a pre-theatre place as we were there at like 8 pm, and it was pretty empty. Service was lovely and attentive. Wine on point. Cozy atmosphere.
Le Rivage has become one of my go-to places for pre-theater dining. The restaurant is authentically French in every way -- the decor, the menu, the service -- and is clearly oriented towards efficiently providing an enjoyable meal to theater-goers. My friend and I once lived in Paris, and we enjoyed classic French dishes such as a frisee salad, Burgundy beef, and peach Melba. The $29 prix fixe at lunch is almost impossible to beat for the quality of the food and the fairness of the price.
I booked for Le Rivage for New Years Eve.
Firstly, The menu is confusing.
They make it look like a prix fix menu because they put everything available on the list and then the additional cost in small print beside certain choices. Almost every popular item, even a simple French onion soup or creme brûlée had an added cost.
The Beef Bourginon was not good at all. Served with noodles ? Not very French ?
And the meat was tough. Disappointing.

A Sunny Day in May to ReflectMay 2nd, 2014 at 12:05 am
Sooooo, unfortunatley, I have no Loose Change to deposit today. That's bad for the Loose Change account, however, good in the sense that I spent no cash.
Part Time Job UpdateMay 1st, 2014 at 12:22 am
So, Tuesday evening I started my part time job. You may recall I was hired at $10.00 per hour as a handyman for an elderly MD in a neighboring town. The MD is a kind man who is rather eccentric and scatterbrained. One of those individuals who "is so smart, he's a knucklehead" type of person.....lol.

So, on 4/23/14 my internet went down. The DSL light was on the modem but no connection. After numerous calls, help desk visits, etc., it was determined that the modem should be replaced.

$26.57 deposit set to be made tomorrow. Baby steps. Also I put $35.00 from my quick silver rewards in the loose change account and have $38.00 coming from another reward. That should put me at about $250.00 after the first month or so of the challenge. Amazing. Can you imagine $250 per month......that's almost a million dollars at the end of the year.

It's Only Art
If you're an artist, it's easy to wonder if what you do really matters in the vast scheme of things. With a few billion people in the world, does one person's measly contribution really matter?
Yes! It matters greatly. I know it's a cliché, but art can change the world. True, not all art changes the world, and a lot of art changes it for the worse. But art can powerfully influence the world around us. We should never say, "It's only art."
Is it only architecture? Just ask Isidore and Anthemius when they laid down the blueprint of the great Hagia Sophia and said, "We think we can do this."
Is it only a painting? Just ask Michelangelo after he finished the Sistine Chapel.
Is it only a story? Just ask J. R. R. Tolkien after he wrote a little book that began with "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
Is it only music? Just ask the Beatles after they appeared on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964.
Is it only a dance? Just ask Michael Jackson after he performed the Moonwalk on Motown's 25th anniversary special in 1983.
Is it only a movie? Ask George Lucas about May 1977 when he flew to Hawaii during the premiere of his new space movie because he was sure it was going to flop. It was a little film he called "Star Wars."
It's never "just art." And you're never "just an artist." In God's economy, there are no "justs." He designed you with a specific set of gifts and talents to be used at this time and place in history. You're a one of a kind, my friend! If you don't what you do, it simply won't get done.
So please don't think of yourself as "just an artist." You're so much more.
You're a dreamer.
A doer.
A thinker.
A creator.
A visioneer.
A risk-taker.
An unlocker of potential.
And a thousand other things.
But one thing you will never be is a "just." And you will never make "only art."
If you ever hear someone say, "It's only art," they are correct in one sense. It only has the power to change a life. It only has the potential to inspire a child who will one day do some extraordinary. It can only make grown men cry, give hope to the hopeless and alter a person's entire perspective.
Art only has the power to change the course of history. So yes, I guess in the end it's only art.

text: Like the water, Istanbul never seems to end, stretching to the horizon. Here, Europe meets Asia and the sailboats skim across the glimmering Bosphorus Strait. Architecture of the city – centuries old, perhaps as old as the 7th century BCE – build up on top of each other, ultimately peaking with the gold tipped minarets of various mosques. Since its beginnings, this location (Byzantium – Constantinople – Istanbul) has seen the rise and fall of numerous world powers including the Roman Empire, the Byzantine, the Latin, and the Ottoman, finally establishing itself as a Republic in 1923. And despite the sunshine and the sailboats, one can still feel the heavy echoes of centuries gone, the deepness of culture and memories.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
Is there any way to have the client on server side; I mean, I have no internet access where I want to install the server, it's just the local network.
The default page on ScrumFactory.Web sends me to www.scrum-factory.com/SFClient2012 when I clic on "install client", how could I do to have the installer on my server?
I'll appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
I tried doing it by Publishing ScrumFactory.Windows project, and when I install it from my IIS "localhost/System.Window.exe.application" I get a "ImportCardinalityMismatchException"
I'm running it on WindowsXP with IIS 5.1
Hello mjpena,
it seems to be a very common request.
We will make a client .exe file available for download at the web site soon.
Here we go:
At the download section you can now download the stand-alone client.
Just copy it to your local machine, unzip it, and click to install.
It will install it from your drive and not from the internet.
Please, let me know if it helped you.
Thanks Klot, It helped me out.
I kinda rebuilt the client to run under my enterprise environment :P
BTW, I send congratz and thanks to the ScrumFactory team, your app is a great tool and very well designed and programmed.

Just craft one of the things where animals wont attack you.I used one and he just stood there and let me turn him into a pincushion.
Yep, climb the radio tower. I hit him twice from the tower, but he ran off and hid, so I climbed down, sneaked up on him for another hit, then finished him off with a point blank arrow to the face as he charged me.
also, you're probably just bad.
You are not allowed to request a sticky.

Stamp Sets – By the Tide, Tiny Tags
card stock – Pool Party, Island Indigo, Whisper White
Ink – Calypso Coral, Island Indigo
Etc – Fan embossing folder, Pool Party button, Tangerine Tango ribbon, Small curly punch
Isn't it cute? She's let me borrow her set this week so hopefully I'll get to play a bit. Hugs, Fran

All the fuss making business about the Mayan calender - 12-21-2012, is nothing more than 0+0+0+0 = O. The Mayan calender is said to be an ancient system of calendars. It is supposed to be the oldest system of the Mayan Civilisation. It is reaching a dead end on December 21, 2012; beyond which there is nothing to make any entry or record. Hence those 'fishermen' accustomed to fish in troubled waters dare say that the world is coming to an end.
They know that our world is being definitely entangled in a cobweb of problems relating to environmental apprehensions, economic woes, political turmoils etc etc. Under such circumstances it looks easy for them to confuse, hoodwink and mislead the innocent/ illiterate people on psychologic/astrological/whims- ical grounds to promote their nefarious businesses through mean marketing-cum-advertising designs. And the world media is consciously or unconsciously adding fuel to the fire.
The systematic approach adopted by the so called experts to frighten people mainly focuses on the following;- (i) That there is going to be an end of the Mayan calendar on 21st instant, and the world will collapse.
(ii) That there will be a collision against Nibury, a near earth object causing total destruction of the God's earth. (iii) That an atmospheric fallout due to solar storms will result in the crisis of their choice, and (iv) that the rolling magnetic poles together with with the resultant tidal effects will cause the imbalance in the overall planetary alignment etc etc. These are all filimsy grounds and figments of their dirty minds to blackmail the poor/innocent/nervous segments of population in different parts of the world.
All these rumors must be most emphatically debunked, because the experts suggest with confidence that there is nothing, absolutely nothing to worry, and that heavens will not fall. The mother earth is a unique creation of God which these flimsy gods can't destroy or predict to be destroyed. The tall claims and rumors that the hazardous astroids and comets are approaching the earth on December 21, 2012 are being advanced without producing 'extraordinary evidence'.
In this connection , as a laymen, I have seen a very impressive video 12-21-2012, produced by the National Geographic titled " Just another Day" in which the NASA's expert scientist Don Yeomans has most authentically rejected the rumors on the various grounds as discussed above. For more information the readers may visit www.nationalgeographic.com/edu- cation/media/just-another- day; for which I wish to place on record my sincere appreciations and thanks to the NG org. Plus I have also drawn information from various sources provided on line at 'mayancalendar-Google Search'.
So, please have sound sleep. There is nothing, nothing to worry about; and that heavens will not fall. After all rumor mongers have to do their jobs. I am sure, on 22nd December, 2012 they will be hiding their faces and providing various pretexts of if's and but's.However let me admit that I am not an expert. What ever research I have done is based on the sources duly mentioned above. For mistakes if any, I stand to be corrected.

Story highlights
- Moms teach their kids not to lie, but they do it often
- The author argues that the magic of childhood would be eliminated without lying
- Sometimes, kids aren't ready for the truth
Smell that? Yeah, it's my pants on fire.
After becoming a mom, I also became something surprisingly sinister: a liar. And, boy, did I get good at it. I can whip up a nifty half-truth to head off a kid (or hubby) meltdown without batting an eyelash. I can only shrug and look up for lightning.
One trip to the pediatrician's office spawned a web of lies. In the waiting room, I told another mom how wonderful and easy breastfeeding was. And I quote: "It was bliss from the beginning." Gag. Why did I even say that? Truth be told, it sucked -- literally and figuratively. Then I crossed my fingers behind my back and told my son it was just a quickie checkup (whoops, shot day!).
To create the ultimate untruth grandslam, I flat-out lied to the doctor about my daughter's early dental care -- "Why, yes, I do brush that one tiny little baby tooth every morning and night." I'm not alone here. As moms, we sternly wag our fingers at kid-generated dishonesty but have somehow carved a little clause in the rule book for mommy lies. Hypocrisy? Sure, but there are a number of good reasons we do it.
1. For starters, the magic of childhood would be eliminated without lying. There would be no Santa Claus, Tooth Fairy, or Easter Bunny.
2. Lying helps you sidestep a hissy fit. It was easier for me to tell my little ones the park was closing (at 2 p.m.!) than to deal with the complaints or tantrums when it was time to go. Sure, you can call this lazy parenting, but motherhood hits you with so much so fast, sometimes self-preservation trumps integrity.
3. Often, kids aren't ready for the cold, hard truth. That's why we say "No, honey, there's no such thing as the bogeyman," although we know from watching the news that, sadly, there really is. There are monsters in the world; they just don't live under our kids' beds.
Beyond time-savers and innocence preservers, there's a power that comes along with parenthood that, at first, makes you feel as if you're above the law. But as the kids get older, you have to come clean and set a good example. I see now that I use a crafty white lie as a pedestal, shield, or crutch too often. I've vowed to tell the truth faster. Sure, my parenting skills aren't perfect, but I've realized I don't have to prove myself to anyone. I know I'm a great mom, flaws and all.

Not My Holiday.
So tomorrow night, Fmom and I will have the lights off, and we'll be hearing kids and adults scurrying all around the house. The day after I'll be happy if only for of all things, TV. I'm not a big blood and gore/horror movie type person. So on Thursday its back to normal non-gory type stuff.
Hope everyone has fun on Halloween.

WALHALLA, SC (WSPA) – A man from Fair Play who was rescued from a trampoline next to a burning home has been charged with arson.
Kyle Jacob Bowman, 23, is charged with arson second degree by the Oconee County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies say someone found Bowman on a trampoline while fire was burning a home on South Davis Drive on February 10. Bowman was treated by paramedics.
The sheriff's office says it's investigators and officers from the State Law Enforcement Division determined Bowman set the home on fire deliberately.
He was arrested Tuesday and is being held in the Oconee County Sheriff's Office.

While shopping for building quotes for a new backyard shed, Chris Moriarty, managing director of business development firm Strike Force Sales, filled in an online quotation form at the website for ReadyMix, Australia's leading concrete supplier.
Eight months later, Moriarty has still yet to receive an answer.
So, he decided to survey the response times to online customer inquiries of other large Aussie companies, sending in about 460 queries to companies with more than 100 employees.
From the companies his team contacted, 59 percent did not answer customer inquiries within seven days.
"The results are surprising, when you think about how much energy companies put into marketing -- and then a consumer wants to talk about a product and the company doesn't bother ringing them back," said Moriarty.
"You spend all this money on advertising and marketing and brand awareness and when customers knock on your front door, you don't even respond."
Only six percent of the companies responded to inquiries over the phone, and of those that did, it took an average of nearly three days.
While several companies sent automated response emails promising a follow-up, 49 percent of those companies never contacted the customer again.
Moriarty believes that much of this indifference to online inquiries can be attributed to the fact that most businesses see email as simply the domain of the IT department, with no accountability about what actually happens to the customer's question.
"What we think happens is that the emails go to the IT department and sit in a database, and there's no process to track how long and how many emails are going through," he said.
"There's no real management system in place, there's no one who is responsible for making sure this happens in an efficient fashion, and it's just sloppy."
He also believes that Aussies perhaps expect a lower degree of customer service than countries like the U.S., so companies here have never been forced to change their ways.
Today, Australian companies are spending over $1 billion on online advertising alone, and tens of billions on mainstream advertising that very often directs customers to the Internet.
Moriarty believes that those are and will continue to be billions wasted if Aussie businesses don't start focusing on answering these inquiries and making a connection with their customer base.
"If it takes three days for a customer to get an answer, there's a good chance that that customer has gone off and found someone else to help them in three days," he said.
"It's an area that businesses haven't taken seriously, and it's destroying all the money and effort they're putting into their brand awareness."
Aussie businesses ignore online customer inquiries
