On moving forward and breaking compatibility is a gentle rant about precisely this. We had about 2 years of "crap, my recovery script I run once every forever is dying and $APPLICATION is dead in the water! HALP!" emails at $PREVIOUS_WORKPLACE because of this change. The old behavior would allow these scripts to work because autocheck was off, and the scripts were checking the errors; once it was on automatically, the scripts would crap out despite the "proper" error handling being in place.
The middle of an emergency is not when you want to try to explain how this change that has broken things and is costing money was, really, a good idea, and how, yes, they will have to patch the script if they want to move forward, and yes, they will have to do this on the production machine, and yes, they will have to get all the relevant people out of bed, and no, I don't think that's where the author's head was.
As I mention in the above node, this could have been done better, with examples of how so.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks rallied on Thursday after three days of losses as stronger-than-expected economic data helped reassure investors concerned about the expected winding down of the Federal Reserve's economic stimulus.
Despite the rally, the S&P 500 failed to hold significantly above resistance at its 14-day moving average of 1,636.26. Support kicked in earlier in the day after the index traded below its 50-day average and again near 1,600.
Before the market opened, government data showed retail sales rose more than expected in May and first-time applications for jobless benefits fell last week, suggesting resilience in the U.S. economy.
The market, which fell sharply on Wednesday, rose on the data, according to Ken Polcari, director of the NYSE floor division at O'Neil Securities in New York. But he said stocks' climb was also due to the overdone selling of previous sessions.
"I expect the S&P to test support again" near 1,600, Polcari said.
Stocks had fallen every day this week up until Thursday on concern central banks could soon begin to wind down their stimulus measures. Trader angst increased after the Bank of Japan decided not to take any new measures on Tuesday, triggering a sell-off in Japanese equities and a rally in the yen.
"We have been looking for something like this to add to our equity positions," said Ian Kerrigan, senior investment specialist at JPMorgan Private Bank in Seattle, referring to the pullback.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI rose 180.85 points or 1.21 percent, to 15,176.08, the S&P 500 .SPX gained 23.84 points or 1.48 percent, to 1,636.36 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC added 44.94 points or 1.32 percent, to 3,445.36.
Despite a rally in both U.S. stocks and the yen, both have strengthened of late their inverse correlation as bets against the Japanese currency were being used to finance long positions in Wall Street equities. The 200-day correlation between the S&P and the Japanese currency stands at -0.92, near its strongest inverse correlation in more than four years.
The yen hit its strongest in the session at 93.78 per U.S. dollar but lost momentum to trade above 95 after the closing bell on Wall Street.
Besides the strong economic data, merger and acquisition activity helped the bullish sentiment. Shares of No. 1 U.S. newspaper chain Gannett Co (GCI.N) soared 34 percent to $26.60 after it announced plans to buy television company Belo Corp BLC.N for $1.5 billion. Belo jumped 28.3 percent to $13.77.
Safeway SWY.N shares rose 7.4 percent to $24.82 a day after Empire Co (EMPa.TO), the operator of Canadian grocery chain Sobeys, said it would buy Safeway's assets in Canada for $5.7 billion.
Shares of William Cos (WMB.N), parent of Williams Olefins, briefly hit their lowest this year at $32.55 after a deadly explosion and fire hit the company's chemical plant in Louisiana. Shares closed down slightly less than 1 percent at $33.70.
Shares of perfume and beauty products seller Coty Inc (COTY.N) fell in their market debut, taking the gloss off the third-largest U.S. IPO this year. Coty shares lost 0.8 percent to $17.36.
A recent report showed total estimated outflows from long-term mutual funds were $11.53 billion for the week ended June 5, of which $10.9 billion came from bond funds. The figures from the Investment Company Institute showed outflows from stocks, though trending lower, have continued in the past weeks, indicating the recent selloff in bonds has not translated into support to equities.
About 6.3 billion shares exchanged hands on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq and NYSE MKT, slightly below the daily average so far this year of nearly 6.38 billion.
Advancing issues outpaced decliners by a ratio of about 11 to 2 on the NYSE. On the Nasdaq, 16 issues rose for every 5 that fell.

Alison please could you advise me what to use on my skin. I have redness and broken capilleries on the cheeks, chin, and nose area, plus open pores. I also have pigmentation discolouring on my throat/ neck area,and dark lines under my eyes in the corners. My skin on my face has become uneven and "Lizidy" looking, with very tiny fine lines/creases on my skin. I am going through the menapause to. I bought the Lulu TSV a few wks back, and have been using the serum at night, under the night cream. My skin seem's a bit to sensitive for this serum every night. Can you recommend a complete new beauty regime for me, starting with the cleanser. I have bought Gatineau, Decleor and Lulu, Liz Earl, and a few others that I cant recall from QVC over the years. I seem to chop and change and would like to just stick to one beauty regime for a few months to see if my skin improves. I like Neroli serum by Decleor in the morning and wondered if I should try the Iris or the other one beginning with A at night? I like mask's and gentle exfoliators. Please send me your recommendations.
July Beauty Month is in full swing, so I thought I'd share with you some of my skincare secrets including the benefits of exfoliation, the art of layering your skincare and much more…

Hi Alison, I'm 50 and find my decollete area is quite crepey and has a V line. What do you recommend. Thanks:)
July 31, 2011 at 2:41 pm -
Hello Alison please can you advise me on the best product for my skin? I am 54 years old and going through menapause, I suffer with dreadful sweating on my face. I have used many of the brands from qvc at the moment I use Liz Earl. I cleanse, tone and moisturise but within 20 mins of applying moisturiser my face is soaking wet. This doesn't seem to happen if I don't moisturise but I am now in the habit so am reluctant to give up.
Is there anything you can suggest or am I a lost cause?
Many thanks

Is the fear of flying keeping you grounded?
Are you among the 1 in 6 people whose heart rates quicken at the check in desk, who reach panic by the time they hit the gate, and who waste the last few days of their holiday fretting about the return journey home?
You can spot a fearful flyer from miles away, they're the ones clutching their seat, ashen faced and wide eyed. You'll find them rocking back and forth during take off, muttering to themselves and flinching at every noise. If we've just described you, maybe it's time to make a change…
Safe and sound
Flying really is one of the safest ways to get around, second only to escalators in terms of safety. You have a 1 in 11 million chance of being involved in an air disaster, when compared to the 1 in 5000 chance you have of being in a fatal car accident, it's clear to see that flying is by far the safer choice!
Our fears are not always rational though, and there are several factors that add up to a fear of flying. Just one of these is enough to cause uneasiness as the plane taxis to the runway, more than one and the fear factor quickly escalates…
Factors that can increase fear are:
- Fear of heights
- Fear of confined spaces or Claustrophobia
- Breathing in stale and recycled air
- Crowded planes
- The feeling of giving up control
Out the angst
Are you sick and tired of your fear of flying stopping you from seeing the world? We've come up with some helpful hints to help you overcome your dread; follow them and stay calm and we'll have you soaring into the sky with confidence in no time!
1) Don't be scared to share
If you need a little support on a flight, then the best thing to do is tell someone! Let the staff know at the check in desk and make sure your flight attendant is aware that you are nervous. These people are there to make your flight comfortable, and will do all they can to ensure you have as stress free a flight as possible.
2) Fly direct if you can
Why prolong your pain by taking multiple flights to your destination? Flying direct will not only save you time in the air, but will also limit you to one take off and one landing. Most search engines allow you to look solely for direct flights, so do some research when booking and look for the shortest flights available.
3) Choose a larger plane
If being in a confined space is your biggest issue when it comes to flying, you can ease your stress by booking one of the larger planes. A bigger cabin means more space to breathe so you'll feel less like a cooped up chicken. Before booking, read all the flight details and look out for bigger aircraft like the Airbus A330 or the Boeing 747.
4) Make yourself a playlist
Nothing takes your mind of your troubles like soothing sounds, and wearing headphones is an excellent way to drown out all the sounds you keep worrying needlessly about. To combat your fear, why not create a playlist featuring the most relaxing tracks you can find. Pick your favourites and ones that have good memories associated with them and play when you start to feel anxious.
5) Don't stress about every little bump
Modern aeroplanes are designed to withstand far greater stress than you would experience on a normal flight. Turbulence is just the plane's reaction to soft winds; you could think of it as like little bumps in the road. That aside, we know that it can be very disconcerting when the plane starts to wobble and the seatbelt sign lights up, but try to remember that the only accidents caused by turbulence are as a result of not being buckled up or falling luggage.
6) Be prepared
There's nothing like a bit of planning to give you back the control you crave. Be organised; don't increase your stress factor by leaving it late to get to the airport. For the ultimate stress reduction why not book a Meet & Greet Parking Package, allowing you to cruise up to the terminal in your own car. A stay at an Airport Hotel is a relaxing way to start your holiday and could save you time and unwelcome stress before your flight.
7) Steer clear of coffee and alcohol
Although it may be true that the odd glass of wine can relax you during a flight, we don't recommend taking this too far, as dehydration caused by alcohol can increase fear and panic in the brain. Coffee being high in caffeine is a stimulant; not what you need if you are already feeling hyped up. Why not limit yourself to decaf whilst flying and lose the rabbit in the headlights look…
8) Fly more often
Sounds ridiculous we know, but the more you do anything that scares you, the easier it becomes. You only have to sit below the flight path at Heathrow to see how many planes come and go without problem, every minute. In the same way, the more you fly successfully, the safer you will feel, and the more relaxed you will become.
9) Try the elastic band technique…
This is a great distraction tool; while flying place an elastic band around your wrist. Whenever you feel anxious due to turbulence or an inexplicable noise, snap the band against your wrist. According to therapists, the pain acts as a reality check and ultimately takes your mind off your troubles.
10) Don't obsess about past disasters
When accidents do happen, it can be tempting to immerse yourself in all the gory details; this will not help you in any way. Try to ignore any news stories as they will only put wild ideas in your already overactive mind. Remember that air incidents are very rare, and your chance of being involved in one is tiny.
11) Distract yourself
With TV, Movies, games, music, books and papers all on offer on today's aircraft, there are a million way to keep yourself distracted. You might want to stay away from any horror films though, as increasing your heart rate is not recommended if you are a nervous flyer. Stick to comedies and light hearted shows, and while away the hours laughing rather than worrying.
12) Breathe!
Don't give yourself a panic attack, keep breathing deep breaths when you feel stressed. The oxygen will calm your troubled mind and help you rationalise your thoughts. Think about the exciting place you are visiting; imagine yourself lounging on the beach, or sipping cocktails as the sun goes down. The stress of the flight will melt away as you realise it is all worth it!
Still feeling the fear?
If your fear is not quashed by using some of the tips above, you may be in need of a serious intervention. A trip to the doctor is your first stop as they may be able to provide you with medical help and advice.
If that still hasn't done the trick, there are a number of courses operated by airlines that are aimed at overcoming your debilitating dread, and could just be the answer to your prayers. We've rounded up three of the best below:
Virgin Atlantic's Flying Without Fear course, from £120 for Ground Only, £255 for Premium course
Virgin operates Ground Only courses and also a Premium course that includes a flight, at various locations across the country. It helps over 2000 people a year, of all ages, overcome their fears. With a 98% success rate it is run by current Virgin Atlantic Pilots and a Rapid Change Therapist, Howard Cooper, and uses specialist techniques to help you combat your anxiety.
Seating you in small groups, each with their own team leader, means that you feel really looked after, and allows you to bond with your group, giving you more confidence and the strength to overcome your fears. During the second part of the course, the flight, a co-pilot gives you a commentary allowing you to understand all those little noises, and cabin crew and staff are on hand to give support.
For further details or to book visit Virgin Flying Without Fear.
EasyJet Fearless Flyer course, from £189, companion ticket for flight only £69
Hosted by Lawrence Leyton from Channel 4's show Fear of Flying, this two part course is run over two days and operates at airports across the country. Day one lasts around 3 hours and includes the chance to grill an experienced EasyJet captain on all the concerns you may have about flying.
Lawrence then arms you with proven techniques that will banish your fears and have you feeling confident and calm about part 2, the experience flight. This is your chance to test your new found strength, with staff on hand to assist you and ease your worries. You can even take a companion on the flight if you are feeling particularly nervous!
For further details or to book visit EasyJet Fearless Flyer.
British Airways Flying With Confidence course, from £295
Over 40,000 people have attended the British Airways course, and with a 98% success rate that's an awful lot of happy fliers. This full day course operates around the country, and features presentations by BA Pilots, who are on hand to answer your questions about the technical side of aviation.
In the afternoon a psychologist runs through some positive ways of coping with the stress factors of flying and conducts a relaxation session before the flight. Lasting 45 minutes, the flight features a running commentary of what is happening by a co-pilot with lots of support is on hand from staff members.

Bike swap draws crowd despite chill
It wasn't exactly the kind of weather that makes one think of a leisurely bike ride on a warm, summer day, what with snow piles hanging around, cloudy skies and a morning temperature just a notch above freezing.
Yet bike enthusiasts still showed up in droves Saturday for Continental Ski & Bike's eighth annual spring Bike Swap, with the line of buyers nearly a block long before the doors opened.
The big tent event — which continues today — helps raise money for the United Way of Greater Duluth as it pairs perspective Northland bikers with used bikes others no longer need. But it's also a block party of sorts, with music, food and the 1300 block of East First Street barricaded to traffic.
People who sell their bike get 75 percent of the sale price; the other 25 percent goes to United Way. Some people donated bikes so the entire amount went to United Way.
Last year's swap sold 285 bikes and raised more than $11,000 for United Way, organizers said. They are expecting as good or better sales this year, with more bikes on hand and more people ready to buy.
You name the bike and there probably was one at the swap Saturday — fat tire, skinny tire, single speed, 20 speed, mountain bikes, sit-back bikes, choppers, low riders, old-school Schwinns with fenders and baskets, trikes, trailers, kid carriers and more.
Lia Pueringer of Superior was looking for a bike for her 6-year-old daughter, Alexis.
"We got one here last year for her brother (Daniel; they're twins) but hers' was a little small and she's already outgrown it," Lia said. "So we're back this year."
Mom pulled a very feminine, very pink bike out of the lineup of hundreds of bikes and Alexis smiled. She liked the streamers flowing out of the handle bars, the pink and white basket on the front and the bright pink seat.
"I like this one," she said.
Mom agreed, and another used bike had found a new home.
"It's nice that they have this so people can sort of recycle bikes and you don't have to go to a store and buy a new one every year," Lia said. "This is a great community event."
Sonja Bjordal of Duluth was in the checkout line early with a handsome maroon and gold skinny-tire road bike at her side.
"My other bike was too big for me, but this one is perfect. It's hard to find one that's a little smaller," said Bjordal, who stands five-foot-two.
William Helstrom, 4, was at the bike swap looking for a new trike, mostly because his little sister, Ginger, 2, keeps taking his, said their dad, Paul Helstrom. Older brother Hugo, 6, had already picked out and was pedaling a tough-looking red trike with unusually big, fat tires, perfect for some serious off-roading.
"We live way up on the hillside and we have some great places for him to go off road," Paul said.
IF YOU GO The event continues today from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Continental Ski & Bike, 1305 East First St. in Duluth, with prices of remaining bikes discounted 20 percent from Saturday. For more information, contact Continental at (218) 728-4466 or visit unitedwayduluth.org.

Ecclestone backs Donington bid to host 2002 British Grand Prix
British American Racing announced on Friday that they have signed up with two new commercial partners - Bee-Trade.com and ART Advanced Research Technologies Inc.
Nevada-based Bee-Trade.com has signed a "multi-year" contract with BAR. The online auction company has a distinctive 'racing bee' logo, which will appear on the front wings of Jacques Villeneuve's and Ricardo Zonta's cars.
Canadian-based ART, meanwhile, are specialists in laser and thermal imaging technologies and will help BAR have access to a leading edge system that will enhance the quality and performance of their cars.
"We are very pleased to welcome Bee-Trade.com and ART to BAR," said BAR managing director Craig Pollock. "Bee.Trade.com is a young free-thinking organization that is hungry for success - a lot like BAR.
"ART, with its expertise in laser and thermal imaging systems, is a natural with the world of Grand Prix racing. We look forward to building successful relationships with both companies."

First remix I have ever made. What do you think?
lovely punchy and clear mixdown, nice work. I think you need to add some more suspense into the track, build your phrases up into more dramatic drops, to keep the energy going, cut out the bass sumtimes, adds some crazy percussion to break things up, etc

Poor effort by all
At both the Republican and Democratic national conventions, both candidates' wives gave speeches saying how tough they had it when they were younger ("The pols cry: We had it worse than you!" Sept. 9). How superfluous! No one cares how tough each of them had it, although I don't believe either of them.
Most of us who grew up in the 1950s had it tough. What we want to know is what each of the candidates would do to get us out of the mess that this administration has sucked us into.

The London Business School MBA often uses the 'Case Method' as the basis of its various units. Given this, one of my biggest questions before the MBA began was how exactly the Case Method would work in practice. Sure, I'd heard about it and seen video clips of classes being tutored using this approach. But what would it be like actually being a part of one of these lectures? How effective would they be? And how best to actually participate and contribute?
In case you haven't come across the Case Method before, let me briefly explain what it involves. At the start of each unit (e.g. Strategy) we are given a binder containing the cases and additional reading for each lecture. Before each lecture everyone should have read the case in detail and summarised their thoughts (e.g. What are the key issues? How did management react? What should the CEO have done differently?). In class the lecturer will briefly introduce the case before posing a question to class based on the case, such as 'Why was Honda's entry to the US market so successful?' Someone in the class will volunteer their thoughts, before someone else comments on that answer, builds on it or offers an alternative. The lecturer goes on to direct and chair the ensuing discussion, linking in to underlying academic theory as the class progresses.
In my opinion this method has so many benefits over the traditional book-based method of teaching business that I can't possibly summarise all of them. But let me offer a few of the most important for me:
1) It's more fun! Even as an accountant I find some of the more detailed parts of finance a little dull. But framing the topic as a case brings the subject to life. No longer are you learning what the optimal capital structure is for the sake of it, you're trying to find the best way of funding the growth strategy for a new low-cost airline. You're not trying to define what exactly a 'competitive advantage' is, you're trying to find out how best Honda could secure an enduring position in the US motorcycle market.
2) It brings business back to reality. Having read more than my fair share of management books prior to London Business School 'business' had started to seem like quite an abstract, academic subject. The case method rapidly brings you back down to earth, reminding you that business involves real people being forced to make enormously important decisions often based on incomplete and/or poor quality information.
3) Cases allow you to benefit from the experience of others. How exactly would you have reacted to IBM's entry to the personal computer market if you were Steve Jobs running Apple? What would have been your priorities if faced with turning around American Express in the early 90s? How do your answers compare to what decisions were actually made? Through this process you gain an insight into why business leaders of old decided on the choices they made. And, more than this, you get to benefit from listening and reacting to the views of your fellow classmates.
4) You practice articulating arguments clearly and concisely. No matter how brilliant or insightful , unless you're able to clearly convey your ideas they're likely to go nowhere. This is particularly important in business where the correct decision often needs to be made and executed quickly. The Case Method forces you to practice structuring your argument and conveying it clearly… how well I'm doing will become clear when I see my first class participation grade (did I forget to mention that we're graded on the quality of our contributions in class?!)

Gang Ties Explored in Newark Schoolyard Slaying Suit
A jury is hearing testimony in a lawsuit filed by families of three college-bound friends murdered in a Newark schoolyard.
A Newark detective testified Tuesday that bullet marks on a door at the schoolyard were made from shots fired from inside school property. An attorney for the families also showed the jury pictures of graffiti on the asphalt and playground equipment.
The families of the three, plus a fourth victim who survived being shot and stabbed, claim the school had non-working security cameras, was poorly lit and was left unlocked when it was a known gang hangout.
Six men and boys arrested for the murders have pleaded guilty or been convicted and are serving combined sentences of more than 1,000 years.

In today's world we regularly seem to hear about debt.
Debt now seems an accepted concept, whereas in the past this wasn't always the case.
My mother always used to say to me "If you can't afford you can't have it", good advice really. Yet it is now commonplace for thousands of people across the country to accrue debt. This can be for purchases on cars, houses, holidays, renovations, TVs, settees, furniture and mobile phones. These name just a few items that it now seems almost normal for many people to be in debt on.
Managed correctly, this isn't always a problem.
However, many people out there are miss-sold products by those desperate to make a sale; have changed circumstances that mean they can no longer afford payments; or simply do not understand how to manage debt correctly.
Debt can often lead to more problems, when further loans are taken out to pay off previous debts.
When debts start to spiral out of control, it can have serious effects on people's lives. Stress can put massive mental and physical strain on individuals, leading to breakdowns in relationships and working patterns.
Sadly, this is true for many people living in communities across Doncaster.
I have heard horror stories from our parishes and communities where payday loan companies and doorstep lenders are aggressively targeting vulnerable people, often already in debt. Sadly, this makes the situation worse as they are often already struggling to support themselves and their families.
It is the duty of us all to realise that we are not all fortunate enough to withstand the pressures of an aggressive sales attack.
We do not all understand the intricacies of APRs and interest rates. Sometime our own friends and families just need help to understand how to get out of this crippling spiral.
Doncaster is lucky that there are many organisations that will help advise on clearing debts, managing money and dealing with the stress it creates.
The Citizen's Advice Bureaux in the Frenchgate Centre offers help and guidance via phone, internet and in store. The Doncaster Food Bank can help when debts have mounted to the point you can't afford food.
As a member of the Church of England, I also believe that we, as a church, have a major role to play in supporting real lending alternatives. These are often known as Credit Unions and provide an easy way to save as well as offering low-cost loans. They are not-for-profit which means they don't need to act aggressively or 'force-sell' you anything.
The main credit union in Doncaster is the South Yorkshire Credit Union. It is owned and controlled by its members who are come from the local area. To join South Yorkshire Credit Union, you must live or work in Barnsley, Doncaster or Rotherham.
* Peter Burrows, Bishop of Doncaster

Ontrack offers hope for instant data-loss relief with service that rescues data by phoneOntrack® (Nasdaq: ONDI), the world leader in data recovery, is now restoring PC users' lost data without taking hard disks "back to the shop" for repairs. A groundbreaking new service, Remote Data Recovery (RDR), lets Ontrack rescue data on modem-equipped PCs by phone, using techniques previously employed only in its 7 data-recovery labs around the world. With RDR, any location with a phone – from a hotel room, to an airport lobby, to a home office – becomes an extension of the Ontrack lab network.
"Ontrack knows there's never a good time for a data loss, and there's no such thing as 'too soon' for a data recovery," said Michael Rogers, CEO and chairman of Ontrack. "RDR enables us to restore certain types of data losses in as little as an hour – and spares our customers the expense and time required to ship us their drives for recovery."
Patent-pending RDR works in conjunction with Ontrack Data Advisor™, easy-to-use freeware diagnostic software. Users can run Data Advisor any time to test and analyze file systems and structures, system memory, and the hard drive's ability to read stored data. When a loss occurs -- even when a system won't boot -- Data Advisor can be used to diagnose the problem quickly and provide recommendations on how to proceed – including Remote Data Recovery, when appropriate.
RDR can solve many non-hardware related problems, including some caused by viruses, corrupted file structures, and software malfunctions. (Other problems, including hardware malfunctions, may require traditional data recovery methods.) If Data Advisor recommends RDR, it gives users the option of automatically establishing a dialup connection to Ontrack and uploading the diagnostic test results. An experienced Ontrack data recovery engineer from the new Remote Data Recovery team uses those results to formulate a data recovery strategy, then phones the user to explain the situation. After providing an estimate of how long the process will take and quoting a price for the work, the engineer gives the user a choice of proceeding with remote recovery.
Ontrack began performing Remote Data Recovery on a limited basis in January 1998, and the service has already restored mission-critical files to satisfied customers from a variety of industries: An international executive's business presentation vanished from a laptop at the Nagano Games but was restored via RDR in time for a high-stakes meeting. A panicked programmer for a small public utility avoided meltdown when Ontracksalvaged his boss's critical files. A national construction firm was spared having to re-create months of compliance-record keeping on a $70 million government project. From critical sales records to irreplaceable personal-contact lists, RDR restored the lost data faster than any other available method.
The amount of time required for Remote Data Recovery and the cost of the service vary according to the nature of the data loss, the capacity of the drive, and the speed of the dialup connection. Typical recovery times range from 30 minutes to two hours, for a 28.8 kbps connection. Pricing for RDR is quoted on a case-by-case basis based on the severity of the data loss, and is comparable with Ontrack standard data-recovery costs. For a typical drive with a capacity of 2 GB or less, RDR pricing would range from $400 to $1,200, including a non-refundable $100 diagnostic fee.
Data Advisor will soon offer virus detection as well as diagnostic capabilities for users of DOS, Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2. Data Advisor will be distributed by leading computer vendors, hard-disk manufacturers, and system-maintenance contractors, and is currently available by calling Ontrack at 800-872-2599 or as a free download from the Ontrack Web site (www.ontrack.com).
Ontrack Data International, Inc., the world leader in data recovery, specializes in software and services that help computer users protect their valuable data and recover lost data. Ontrack uses hundreds of proprietary tools and techniques to recover lost or corrupted data from any storage device and operating system. Ontrack can be reached through its World Wide Web site at http://www.ontrack.com or by calling 800-872-2599. In addition to its Minneapolis headquarters, Ontrack operates data recovery labs in Los Angeles, San Jose, Washington, D.C., Tokyo, London and Stuttgart.###

I would have to agree with MindlesChaos. Although I would broaden it to dowsing being the easiest form of divination, with scrying the hardest.
There is little prior experience needed for dowsing, and it's pretty straightforward. In it's most basic forum the essential idea is "if the object does this movement, it means yes. But if it does this movement, it means no."
Scrying on the other hand is far more complicated and in most cases requires a great deal of focus and discipline. You are after all staring into a object while in a trance, waiting until images begin to form in your mind's eye. It's a very lengthy process compared to dowsing, which can be done in only a few moments.
I have compiled a list of divination methods (as well as other psychic related terms) into an article I published here:

Jaime - posted on 08/04/2009 ( 3 moms have responded )
Just wondering if anyone has ever worked out in the community as a nurse doing home visits?
I am about to start a brand new full time community nurse job working with VON (victorian order of nurses) I am heading up the palliative team, giving home visit support (drsg changes, meds, pronouncing death, PPSM etc..) Benefits are I can make my own hours (around the girls school/dance schedules) straight days and only 1out of 4 weekends!! Rate of pay isn't the same as the hospital but I am getting full benefits and paid vacation weeks. The benefits is huge for us, because we were paying privately $300 a month.
I was a community nurse when I first graduated but only for about 6 months before I went into hospital nursing. Just looking for some tips..........

We haven't told our parents yet, as the wedding is scheduled for 2013, but we already expect my side of the family to have a fit over the cost of the trip. Most of them are people we don't want there, so we feel it works to our advantage. It saves me the awkwardness of explaining why they are not invited. My parents may not be there, due to the cost, but I'm not close to them and will not be the least bit bothered, one way or the other.
I think it is so different for each person. Consider whether you cannot imagine getting married without your parents there, or whether you cannot imagine getting married at home. For me, it's definitely the latter.

Infographic: Why our national parks are the pride of America
From Yosemite to the Grand Canyon to Yellowstone, National Parks are the hallmark of America's public lands. The Wilderness Society works to protect wilderness areas in National Parks by partnering with diverse groups of businesses, government officials and recreational organizations, all of which understand the importance of these wild lands.
Unfortunately, as federal budgets tighten, parks are not being spared the pain of sequestration. Despite their indisputable popularity, parks are facing cuts that make it a struggle to meet the public's needs. This impact is also sure to ripple out to those communities that receive economic support from these parks.
The graphic below, produced by the UNC School of Government, describes the history of the Park System and highlights several unique places, demonstrating why our National Parks are "The Pride of America".

I do promise to look at this soon when my current overfull plate has shrunk.

NORTHPORT, Maine — Former Bangor Daily News photojournalist Bob DeLong was posthumously inducted into the Maine Press Association Hall of Fame Saturday during a ceremony held at the Point Lookout conference center.
Also inducted into the 13th class of honorees were Don Levesque, retired publisher of the St. John Valley Times in Madawaska, and the late Bill Clark, former columnist for the Portland Press Herald, Central Maine Morning Sentinel and Kennebec Journal.
"Bob told stories, not just with his pictures, but also in the images he painted with the stories he shared with his friends and co-workers," said Bangor Daily News Photography Editor Scott Haskell, addressing a luncheon crowd of approximately 100 journalists and family members of the inductees while a slide show of DeLong's best photos played on a large screen.
DeLong worked for the BDN for 34 years, the last 22 as a staff photographer before he retired in 2002. He died in 2008 after a brief illness. Over his career as a photographer, he won numerous state, regional and national awards.
"I suspect that Bob was proudest of his collection of daily life photos and all the friends he made along the way that he shared with our family of readers over the years," said Haskell, fighting back tears.
Members of the DeLong family accepted a plaque commemorating his induction. His son, Michael DeLong, said his father "would have been honored to go into the MPA Hall of Fame."
Previous inductees from the Bangor Daily News include former sports editor Ralph "Bud" Leavitt, former news editor Kent Ward, former publisher Lillis Towle Jordan and former reporter Ted Sylvester.
Levesque was presented for induction by friend and retired Bangor Daily News reporter Beurmond Banville, who praised the former publisher for "having the temerity and guts" to print columns written in French on the pages of the St. John Valley Times in order to preserve the region's Franco and Acadian culture.
Co-presenters John McCatherin and George Smith praised Clark for his incisive columns portraying life in rural Maine. Clark began writing his "Logrolling" column in 1957 and was still writing a version of it until his death in 1988.

Congressional candidate David Orentlicher's second ad debuted today. It focuses on fixing health care and special interests. As a doctor and an experienced legislator, I think David is in a much better position to fix the health care system than any of the other candidates. His vow to avoid PAC money impresses me as well; it's one of the things I like about Barack Obama.
Orentlicher's second ad revealed
Rumor mill says that Carolene Mays will finally drag her campaign to television. I've heard whispers that her campaign contributions are lagging which would explain her focus on radio until now. Carolene's television debut will bring all four of the major contenders to the air.

The first scrimmage of the preseason for the University of Arkansas Bears was a mirror of the alternately overcast/sunny morning that followed a stormy beginning.
"I saw flashes on both sides of the ball," said UCA coach Steve Campbell. "I saw a lot of good things and I saw a lot of things that will get you beat."
The Bears went through a controlled scrimmge for an hour and a half exactly three weeks before their season opener at Texas Tech.
"We started out sluggishly on offense but the longer we went on, the playmakers started taking over and we made some plays," Campbell said. "i think the 1's scored on every possession but two. There were some good things on defense also."
He said the biggest disappointments were some penalties, two on first down.
"We've got to eliminate those mistakes, particularly those that set you behind the chains right at the start," he said. "We did well in our red zone offense and our coming-out offense. What we did in the middle of the field was the biggest problem."
All the touchdowns, including a couple by Conway's Jeff Anderson, came on short runs. Most were set up by receptions by Dezmin Lewis Desmond Smith, Courtney Whitehead and Damian Watts.
There were no major injuries.
The Bears will hold Media Day on Sunday evening then scrimmage again Saturday morning.

Stackhouse, Dampier miss game for Mavs, will be reevaluated
Published 6:00 pm, Saturday, January 5, 2008
Jerry Stackhouse and Erick Dampier missed the Dallas Mavericks' game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday with injuries.
Stackhouse missed his second straight game with a sprained right thumb and Dampier was also out for the second game in a row with a left knee injury. Both will be reevaluated on Monday
Mavericks coach Avery Johnson said Dampier tried to do a few things in practice this week, but struggled even to get moving because of the sore knee. If things don't progress on Monday, Johnson said Dampier would have an MRI exam.
"He didn't respond well after that game against Golden State," Johnson said. "The swelling was there. He was limping pretty badly and he couldn't practice."
Stackhouse was fitted with a soft cast and continues to be listed as day-to-day.
"Some swelling went down, but his thumb didn't look good," Johnson said.
To help fill the void, the Mavericks called up Maurice Ager from Tulsa of the D-League. Ager has been down since Dec. 17, where he averaged 16.3 points in seven games.
"He was pretty solid down there," Johnson said. "With Damp and Stack not being healthy, we needed to get him back."

HOLYOKE, Mass. (WWLP) - The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has approved provision licenses for 20 corporations interested in opening up medical marijuana dispensaries around the state.
Results of the Phase Two application process were announced late Friday morning. According to the Department of Health, two corporations have been chosen to open up dispensaries in western Massachusetts.
Debilitating Medical Condition Treatment Centers, Inc. was issued a license to open a dispensary in Holyoke. New England Treatment Access, Inc. was issued a license to open a dispensary in Northampton.
No licenses were issued for dispensaries in Franklin or Berkshire County. Also Springfield, the state's second largest city behind Boston, was left out.
Patriot Care Corp. was invited to seek an alternate location in Hampshire County. The corporation wanted to open a dispensary in Northampton.
The selection process began with extensive background checks, the applicant's ability to meet overall health needs, public safety, and location.
8 out of the 20 approved dispensaries will be located in the eastern part of the state, prompting the question of how those in Franklin and Berkshire counties will gain access to medical marijuana.
Karen Van Unen of the DPH Medical Marijuana Program, "Right now, we have eight applicants that we are going to invite in to have them update their application to reflect the counties that don't have any approved dispensaries right now."
The agency said they expect dispensaries to be open for business in the summer.

(RADIO.COM) – When a couple dozen Depeche Mode pre-sale ticket holders were randomly selected to attend a private event in New York on March 6th, most assumed it was a listening event where they'd be treated to a preview of the band's new album, Spirit, ahead of its March 17 release. But little did they know they'd end up being treated to a private and very intimate rehearsal for the band's upcoming tour, not only hearing songs no one has heard before but played by the band themselves.

Fortunately for fans around the world, the event was chronicled by Sean, a long-time fan and random winner selected to be in attendance. Below are excerpts from his story posted on a fan site, Depeche-Mode.com.
At around 4pm, we were escorted into the studio where the band was mid-song, tearing into one of the tracks from Spirit, a rocker with a very modern vibe to it – this one seems like it'll be a crowd pleaser in their live sets. The look of awe on the lucky winners' faces, yours truly included, was priceless. We were in a medium-sized studio, standing just feet away from Depeche Mode as they played for only a handful of fans who, a couple hours earlier, had no idea what they were being invited to.
This was by far one of the most unique and thrilling experiences I've ever had as a fan of any musician, let alone the stadium-filling Depeche Mode.
Depeche Mode will launch their Global Spirit Tour May 5 in Stockholm, hitting North America August 23 through October 27. Bay Area dates include the SAP Center in San Jose on October 8th and the Oracle Arena in Oakland on the 10th.
Tickets available at bit.ly/DepecheModeBayArea.
Spirit Rehearsal Setlist:
- Scum
- Barrel of a Gun
- A Pain That I'm Used To
- Corrupt (live debut)
- In Your Room (album version)
- World in My Eyes (new intro)

OTTAWA and GATINEAU, QC, Aug. 3, 2015 /CNW/ - The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) today announced that the legal requirements regarding the Voter Contact Registry are now in effect. As such, the CRTC is accepting registrations for the federal election, which is taking place from August 2, 2015 to October 19, 2015.
Anyone (including candidates and political parties, corporations, trade associations and other persons or groups) using the services of a calling service provider to call voters during the election will have to register with the CRTC within 48 hours of making the first call. The calling service provider also will have to register with the CRTC.
In addition, anyone using their own internal services to make calls to voters using an automatic dialing and announcing device (often referred to as robocalls) will have to register with the CRTC within 48 hours of making the first call.
Registrations to the Voter Contact Registry must be submitted at: https://services.crtc.gc.ca/pro/VCR
With the exception of third parties who are corporations or groups, those who make live calls to voters using their own internal services will not have to register. In other words, candidates, nomination contestants, registered political parties, registered electoral district associations and individuals who use their own internal services to make live calls to voters will NOT have to register with the CRTC.
Registrants need to provide a copy of a piece of identification issued from a federal, provincial or territorial government, or international equivalent. The identification must include the registrant's name and photo, and be accompanied by an attestation from a notary. Example of valid types of identification include a driver's licence, provincial health card, Secure Certificate of Indian Status, Canadian Forces identity card, permanent residency card, valid Canadian or foreign passport or NEXUS card.
Registrants will also have to provide a copy of a piece of identification to a calling service provider before entering into an agreement for voter contact calling services, and again when authorizing the first call to be made under the agreement.
Although calling service providers need to register with the CRTC, they do not need to provide a copy of a piece of identification when filing their Registration Notice. Those who hire calling service providers are encouraged to ensure that they are aware of the rules.
The CRTC will work to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Voter Contact Registry, and has the authority to impose monetary penalties for each violation of up to $1,500 for individuals and up to $15,000 for corporations. Factors that will help determine the amount of a penalty include:
These factors will be applied with a view to promote compliance, and not to punish non-compliance.
Quick Facts
"Our objective is to ensure those making calls are familiar with the new Voter Contact Registry requirements, given that we will have the ability to impose monetary penalties for violations. The Commission is implementing the regime entrusted to it by Parliament pursuant to Bill C-23, the Fair Elections Act."
Jean-Pierre Blais, Chairman of the CRTC

Colts vs. Bengals: Breaking Down Cincinnati's Game PlanDecember 5, 2013
The (8-4) Cincinnati Bengals host the (8-4) Indianapolis Colts on Sunday in a game with huge playoff implications.
The winner edges ever-closer to locking up the third seed in the AFC and a matchup with whoever emerges from the scramble for the final spot. The loser likely books a wild-card encounter with the Kansas City Chiefs.
It's hard to overstate just how important this game is for both sides. There's little doubt that there will be a playoff atmosphere at Paul Brown Stadium and there's sure to be a large contingent of Colts fans in attendance.
So after an impressive 17-10 win in San Diego, what do the Bengals need to do to go 2-0 in the second half of the season? Let's take a look.
Put Andrew Luck on His Back
Andrew Luck is a special quarterback. However, it doesn't matter how good you are if the guys protecting you don't do their job properly.
The Colts' offensive line has struggled mightily lately and the stats aren't pretty. According to Mike Wells of ESPN.com, "The Titans pressured Luck all Sunday afternoon and sacked him five times, including four times in the second quarter."
"The five sacks bring Luck's total up to 29 this season."
Keeping Luck on his feet will be of huge concern to the Colts in Week 14. Given that the Titans managed to bring pressure all day long, you can expect Mike Zimmer's defense to have similar success.
Move Whitworth to Guard Permanently
The Bengals' offensive line suffered another injury against the Chargers, with a season-ending ACL tear for Clint Boling.
Andrew Whitworth slid over to guard from his usual spot at left tackle and casually had one of his best games of the year. He bulldozed through the Chargers defense for much of Sunday afternoon, helping the Bengals' running game to a 164-yard bounty.
The stellar play of the offensive line took the pressure off Andy Dalton and allowed the Bengals to control the clock and grind down the Chargers.
The Bengals can be more than confident in starting Anthony Collins at left tackle, while Coley Harvey of ESPN.com reported on Wednesday that Kevin Zietler has begun to participate in "conditioning exercises."
Strong play from the offensive line could be the key to pushing the Bengals over the edge. If we see a repeat of last week, it should be enough to put away the Colts.
Run the Football
This point goes hand in hand with the one that preceded it. If the Bengals can get their running game humming early, the Colts should struggle.
TeamRankings.com has Indy ranked 28th against the run. The Colts give up an average of almost 130 yards per game. Those numbers will excite BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Giovani Bernard following their bumper day in San Diego last week.
In their last three, the Colts have given up 100-plus yards to the Arizona Cardinals and twice to the Tennessee Titans. The Cardinals' run game ranks 24th, six spots behind that of the Bengals.
Special Teams
The Bengals' special teams have balled out this season. They're the unsung heroes of this young team and have really shown up when needed most. Football Outsiders has them ranked as the seventh-best unit in the league.
You'll struggle to find a fanbase more pumped up for a punt than Cincinnati's. It has ample reason to be, as Pro Football Talk's Josh Alper reported that Kevin Huber has been named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 13.
Huber averaged 55.5 yards on his four punts in Sunday's 17-10 victory over the Chargers. He dropped two of those punts inside San Diego's 20-yard line to help the Bengals win the field position battle while holding on to a slim lead.
One of Huber's punts traveled 75 yards, tying a franchise record and giving Huber the second-longest punt in the league this season.
Besides Huber, Dre Kirkpatrick has thrived when running down punts while Jayson DiManche has also had his moments. Together, they make a formidable unit that could be the difference on Sunday afternoon if things stay close.

BREAKING NEWS: Former England Manager Sir Bobby Robson DiesJuly 31, 2009
Former England manager Sir Bobby Robson has died at age 76 after losing his long running battle with cancer.
This was the fifth time he contracted the disease.
A statement was issued on behalf of his family:
"It is with great sadness that it has been announced today that Sir Bobby Robson has lost his long and courageous battle with cancer.
"He died very peacefully this morning at his home in County Durham with his wife and family beside him.
"Sir Bobby's funeral will be private and for family members only.
"A thanksgiving service in celebration of Sir Bobby's life will be held at a later date for his many friends and colleagues.
"Lady Robson and the family would very much appreciate it if their privacy could be respected at this difficult time.''
Sir Bobby Robson played for Fulham and West Brom during the 1950s and 1960s. After his playing career, he went on to manage Fulham, Ipswich, PSV, Sporting Lisbon, Porto, Barcelona, and Newcastle United.
On Sunday, Sir Bobby Robson attended a charity match in his honour at St James' Park. The event attracted a crowd of more than 30,000 fans.
Paul Gascoigne, who played under Robson for England, paid tribute to his former mentor following that match, saying, "Sir Bobby is a legend over the world. He was the one who gave me my first run-out for the England team.
"When I saw him it was quite heartbreaking to see him that way but he is battling away and keeping on top of it, which is great. He's battling cancer for the fifth time. It takes a man to beat it once but he's doing it for a fifth time. That's the man he is, he won't give in."
I too would like to pay my deepest respects to Sir Bobby Robson and his family. All I can say is rest in peace Sir Bobby Robson, forever you will be missed.

PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Paula Creamer missed the cut Friday in the LPGA Championship after longtime caddie Colin Cann was hospitalized because of back spasms.
It snapped a streak of 39 consecutive made cuts at majors for Creamer, who shot 5-over 77 and finished the two rounds at 6-over 150.
"Probably the hardest thing I've had to do in a long time is come out here without him," Creamer said. "You feel such mixed emotions with everything. I'm not physically hurt, but my brain is on a whole. He's my brother. We've been together 10 years and I cried."
Creamer said Cann broke an ankle at Kingsmill in 2005 during her rookie year, and that was the last time he wasn't on the bag.

Russian Populist Zhirinovsky Happy With Statue Of Himself, Internet Not So Much
Ultranationalist Russian lawmaker and five-time presidential candidate Vladimir Zhirinovsky, notorious for his outrageous invective, parliamentary brawls, and donkeys, has unveiled a statue of himself, dedicated to his 70th birthday.
It's a three-meter bronze figure of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDPR) founder standing and gazing confidently toward the horizon, his right arm bent at the elbow and held against his torso. It was unveiled in the courtyard of the Institute of World Civilization, the nonprofit school established by Zhirinovsky in Moscow in 1999.
An arch-nationalist with a record of expansionist rhetoric and anti-Semitism before his Jewish roots were revealed, Zhirinovsky said he never expected to see a statue in his honor and expressed pride at what he described as a "gift" from its caster, Tbilisi-born sculptor and Russian Academy of Arts President Zurab Tsereteli.
"Tsereteli made this gift for me not because I am a scientist or an athlete, but because I am a politician and a party leader," Zhirinovsky said on Instagram. "I therefore suggest naming it 'LDPR deed cast in bronze.'"
Zhirinovsky co-founded the LDPR under still-unclear circumstances in the dying days of the Soviet Union (as its first official opposition party) and subsequently excelled at creating headline-grabbing political spectacles. He has run five times for the Russian presidency, peaking at 9.35 percent of the vote in 2008. His party initially fared even better, with nearly 23 percent in 1993 parliamentary elections, and mixed results ever since.
In the latest campaign, his slogans included "Zhirinovsky, or it'll get worse" and "Zhirinovsky and it'll get better."
Russian Twittersphere mocked the Zhirinovsky sculpture.
"Fat Zhirinovsky unveiled a statue of thin Zhirinovsky in Moscow. This is all of Russia's cultural and political life," the @StalinGulag mock account wrote.
"Your face when the sculpture is smarter than you," @Baturyna_Elena wrote.
Some suggested that a different image of Zhirinovsky was worth casting in bronze:

DALLAS -- Red light cameras have dotted Dallas intersections since 2007.
On Wednesday the Dallas City Council voted for a $17 million contract to keep the red light running enforcement in place for the next seven years.
The move comes as more communities discontinue the usage of red light cameras, arguing they do not improve safety for drivers and are designed as a revenue generating stream for municipalities.
City staff briefed the council's public safety committee this week on the "Safelight Program" and cited a 48-percent reduction in red light running accidents as the primary reason to continue the program.
District 12 council member Sandy Greyson said she had concerns making sure all the money collected goes back into public safety programs.
Donzell Gipson, assistant director of the Dallas Police Department, told the committee the revenue does go to public safety but said there is no itemized account for how much each effort receives.
"That's not such a great thing because we've always been accused as cities for wanting this revenue for other purposes, and I thought always said we put it right back into public safety programs," Greyson said.
District 14 Councilman Philip Kingston said Dallas needs to shift away from the cameras, citing research indicating the amount of rear-end collisions nationally have increased since communities started deploying the technology a decade ago.
"Traffic engineers around the world aren't criticizing light timing, they are criticizing red light cameras," Kingston said. "I don't know why it is in Dallas. We believe that peer reviewed research applies everywhere else accept here."
The Texas Senate voted in March to ban red light cameras statewide. That body did the same during the 2015 session, but the House has yet to take up the legislation.
