Help and support available for people who care for someone
Carers are people who look after family, partners or friends who are ill, frail, have a disability or a mental health problem. They may be caring for another adult or be a parent of a disabled child. The care they provide is unpaid.
If someone relies on you for support on a regular basis, or is intending to rely on you, then you can access a range of services to support you in your role as a carer. Contact us if you would like an assessment of your needs. Depending on the outcome of your assessment services may be provided or arranged for the person you care for, with their consent, to help you in your caring role.
Take a Break
Short breaks and respite care give adults with learning or physical disabilities and older people the chance to enjoy new experiences and to make new friends. In turn this means carers receive a break from caring and time to recharge their batteries.
Contact Us
To contact the Council directly
Contact the Nottingham Health and Care Point on 0300 300 3333, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, or email firstname.lastname@example.com
If your query or concern is urgent and it is outside of these hours please call the Emergency Duty Team on 0115 876 1000.

Console resolution problem after compiling 2.6.2 ...
Hii, well, it's a silly question ... I compiled the new kernel (2.6.2) and i can't get the console working in 1024x768 or any other resolution. On the former kernel, i needed just to pass 'vga=790' to lilo.conf to make it work. Any clue?! Thanks!
Re: Console resolution problem after compiling 2.6.2 ...
I'll see your silly question and raise you one: Did you compile video selection support into your kernel? From xconfig help screen: Quote:
I did. :( I compiled this kernel 3 times and on the first i already noticed this problem and then i saw 'Video selection support' and thought it was going to work but it did nothing. Thanks anyway. :)
hmmm, that should work.
try adding the following to your lilo.conf: Code:
vga = ask /sbin/lilo reboot after kernel starts loading you will see something like "choose video mode <enter> to see a list or <space> to continue" hit enter then at the next prompt type: scan it will scan all available video modes and present you with a list of what (should) work. don't be alarmed if your screen goes blank, it'll be back choose one NOTE: if nothing works, just reboot, hit spacebar at prompt to boot normal vga and change lilo.conf back to vga=normal then rerun lilo to save changes. let us know, as this is a common question at LQ |
Hi bnice, i had already tested "vga=ask" but not with "scan". Okk, i scanned for video modes and it found some strange things like 80x25, 100x25, 132x44 and others :( ... I appreciate your help ...
those are columns : rows
standard vga 80X25 1234.........................................80 2 3 4 5 . . . . 25 Edit: I just got curious enough to compare the .configs for the canned 2.4.x & my 2.6.2 kernels.:study: This is what I did to make it work, :o These options are under "Graphics Support" [list=1][*]disable video selection support - seems to work without it[*]enable framebuffer support in kernel[*]enable framebuffer console support (this is the one that bit me in the a$$)[*](optional) enable bootup logo[*] make install && make modules_install - or use your favorite method, it's all good[/list=1] |
Hii, i finally discovered what was going wrong. :) Well, i was compiling the atyfb (i have a ATi Rage Pro Turbo) as the framebuffer device. I don't know why it doesn't work but after i tried to use the generic VESA VGA device, it worked perfectly. Thank you, bnice!

My wife and I both want to sign up for the Michelin Race Track Hot Laps on Thursday and Friday. But we're also both signed up for the Michelin Driving School on Thursday and for the Bridgestone Autocross on Friday. Signing up for the Hot Laps requires selecting a day and time, but how do we know when we'll be available to do this if we have the Driving School and the Autocross already scheduled?
Well it appears that there are "0 Seats Left" for all Hot Lap sessions. The e-mail went out this morning and everything is gone already?
The hot laps are during the A session run groups. At this time students won't know their run group until they register for DE registration. There will be no shows. Suggest talking to Michelin in the vendor area early in the week.

When hunger is stronger than reason
The tragic deaths of two children in El Salvador are a vivid reminder of the plight of the poor and the hungry. To understand this story, you need to understand that the government has a program to provide seed corn to poor families in rural El Salvador. Treated to resist pests, the corn is not intended for human consumption. A story in the Latin American Herald Tribune tells what happened:
SAN SALVADOR – Two children are dead and their parents and siblings remain hospitalized after the family ate tortillas made from seed corn that was treated with pesticide, officials at Salvadoran hospitals said Thursday.
"It's an entire family: papa, mama and five minors. Two of the five minors had already died" by the time medical assistance was available, the deputy director of Jose Molina Martinez General Hospital, Dr. Jose Roberto Gonzalez, told Efe.
The fatalities, ages 10 and 12, died Wednesday after eating the tortillas made from government-issued seed corn, which is treated with the pesticide carbamate.
An article titled, When Hunger is Stronger Than Reason, in ContraPunto, describes how the starving family, with nothing else to eat, made tortillas from the corn after trying to wash the corn in water to remove the pesticide. The article describes the many elements to blame for the tragedy -- poverty and hunger which create desperation, inadequate warnings on the packets of seed corn, and families who are illiterate and cannot read the warnings which do exist. It was a senseless and avoidable tragedy.
Oscar Luna, the Human Rights Ombudsman in El Salvador, is quoted in the ContraPunto article calling on Mauricio Funes to implement appropriate measures to ensure the right to adequate food for the poorest and most vulnerable sectors of society.

No no, you want to spend over double and get this one Samsung SyncMaster S27A950D 27in Widescreen 3D LED LCD w/ 3D Glasses at Memory Express Computers - apparently, true 120Hz AND unable to distinguish colours from an IPS (according to user reviews I read elsewhere), not to mention the 2ms response time. You're welcome :D |
3D = meh. Get a Dell U2711! |
OP Edited. |
Honestly, dell makes the best monitors around. The other stuff on the otherhand... If you had a choice between one monitor and a dell, i would go for a dell, more so if it's an ultrasharp (IPS) |
Don't discount the Samsung just because it has 3D capability. Supposedly an outstanding monitor, tho I know pretty spendy. The other one I hear great things about is the HP 24" IPS, which is a bit cheaper than its Dell counterpart. |
I'm not disregarding it simply because it's 3D, I'm doing so because I'm not going to spend an entire paycheck on my monitor (it's a new job so I don't have any cash safety net yet). My issue with Dell has been with their comps and printers so I suppose their monitors could still be good... like I said I'm not totally against Dell it would just take a lot to make me change my mind. So does no one particularly like the 3 I linked? P.S. I want 26"-28" for my monitor size. |
I would never recommend 1920x1080 for a 27in monitor you are going to sit close to, pixel density is quite low, better off with a 24 1920x1080 IMHO but if you really want the 27" and don't mind the pixel density, or you are going to be sitting further from your monitor do what you'd like. |
Edit: 3D ready, 120hz, 1920x1080, 2ms response, LED backlit, and a 3 year warranty. Good price for a good monitor? Acer HS244HQ bmii 24 Class Widescreen 3D LED Monitor - 1920 x 1080, 16:9, 12000000:1 Dynamic, 1000:1 Native, 120Hz, 2ms, HDMI, VGA, Acer 3D Glasses, Energy Star at TigerDirect.com |
Dell displays like the U2711 are awesome. The U2711 has a 2560x1440 IPS panel and an asston of ports. The stand allows for plenty of adjustment and is easily and cleanly removed if you want to stick the display on some other mount. You may scoff at dell's other products, but do not scoff at their displays. Also, you can get it for starting at around $700 during some sales as I recall. Totally worth it. Look up some reviews of it and save up over a couple more paydays. |
All times are GMT -7. The time now is 08:28 PM. |

1414 Harbour Way South
At Ford Point, Richmond, CA 94804 email@example.com 510-215-6000
Newsletter Sign Up
By Chris Treadway Contra Costa Times
RICHMOND -- Before movies, plays, even the printed word, there were stories told verbally to share images, history, moral lessons, humor and drama.
One of humankind's oldest art forms is celebrated annually at the Bay Area Storytelling Festival, which returns May 17-19 at the Craneway Pavilion, 1414 Harbour Way South in Richmond.
The story practitioners and the mental images they create provide the kind of entertainment and exercise of the imagination that electronic screens can't match.
The three-day event opens with the traditional Friday event with a study trip and workshops for area students.
The main events are 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. May 18 and 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. May 19, when some of the biggest talents of the storytelling craft will be weaving tales and creating images in the minds of listeners with the panoramic Bay View from the Craneway as a backdrop.
These are not fairy tales for small children but most suitable for ages 8 to 108, as the promoters say. There are events tailored for older children and adults, as well as events oriented to families, with a Sunday afternoon family concert for children under 8.
Headline storytellers are Len Cabral of Rhode Island, Megan Wells of Illinois and Kevin Kling of Minnesota, each award-winners. Cabral is a veteran teller of folk tales interspersed with personal experiences. Wells uses her theatrical background to make stories come alive. Kling is known for his imagination and ability to draw emotion from his audience.
There are also showcase tellers Yvette Brady of Los Angeles and Will Hornyak of Oregon, and both days will have workshops, musical interludes and story swaps where anyone can share a 5- or 10-minute tale.
An invitational teen spoken word slam will be held from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. Saturday.
Tickets are available for a single event, all-day passes to all events on Saturday or Sunday, or an all-weekend. Tickets and more details are online at www.bayareastorytelling.org.

Hey guys I just finished the Lightolier training that was graciously provided by the company. It was great it even got me "thinking" of switching to Lightolier from Zwave. Also the generous offer you get by attending the seminar helped.
I got a chance to visit with Martin at automatedoutlet.com and his new location. Very nice setup and recommend anyone visiting Dallas to stop by and check out his vending machine.
And if interested you guys will learn a lot from the training although it's tailored more for installers/dealers.

Some Blog Candy to share
My first giveaway is the CUTEST baby Shapeabilities set called, New Arrival! A-DOR-ABLE, don't ya think? This set has 5 dies and is perfect for all your baby themed projects. Cute cute cute!
The next giveaway is the Scor-Bug. I love this little tool! You use it with your Scor-Pal to make little embossing dots (instead of an embossed line with the scor-tool). I also added some Memory Box paper pads I have in my stash -Jubilee, Fernbrae, and Gossamer. I love these papers, but alas, I have TOOOO much right now. These pads are missing some papers, but there's plenty left and they need a loving home. (I hope it's not weird to give away partially used paper packs?)
So leave me a comment on this post and I will randomly pick TWO winners on Wednesday the 27th. You don't have to be a follower or anything, just say HI!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

CHA pics great, so great returning to enter for charming Spellbinders blog candy became work to leave all the CHA fun! Thank you for sharing.
Now, blog candy! Whoa! Most generous of you and Spellbinders. Have neither. Would enjoy sharing crafting delights with terminally ill children and adults courtesy of you and Spellbinders from either candy! Thank you! many times over.
Keep Looking UP! Hi Michelle~
How generous of you and Spellbinders. I believe whoever wins the set with the papers...even if a few pages...or most of them are gone...will be so excited! I know I would be. One person's "too much" is another person's treasure! You are so sweet to be so generous.
He IS Able,
Traci S.Wonderful blog candy. Somehow I had missed the ScorBug but it sounds like a great idea. The only thing that makes your paper a "pad missing some pages" instead of a "stack of beautiful paper" is the adhesive on the top. I'd be mighty surprised if there were any complaints! Thanks for your generosity.

Thanks for the blog candy contest. Keep up the great work.
crafty teacher Thanks so much for the opportunity. Have a big shot, but "Need" a "Grand Caliber" and have nothing to use with them from spellbinders.
After finding this wonderful team and Gina K, my stamping life is changing to include s omuch more, and these would be a wonderful starting point to add to the items from here.
Thanks again.- AnonymousApril 26, 2011 at 9:13 AM
I just love the clean look of this card. You did a great job!

The New Republic
Up and Down is the first film by Czech director Jan Hrebejk with a contemporary setting, and it combines two modes characteristic of current festival cinema. One is the mystical ensemble drama in which all of a movie's disparate characters are ultimately connected; the other, exemplified by the hit import Head-On, is the spectacle of the new multi-cultural Europe.
Both modes evoke, if only superficially, the experience of globalismor, in the case of the Czech Republic, a post-Communist internationale. Appropriately, Up and Downco-written, like several of the 37-year-old Hrebejk's previous features, by his schoolmate Petr Jarchovskyopens with the sounds of a Balkan brass band (and the words "Hello America") and a couple of smugglers sitting around a Slovakian truck stop chewing over the disgusting memory of Thai deep-fried bat. Then they proceed to drive across the Czech border in a van crammed with illegal South Asian immigrants.
As with Divided We Fall (2000), the only previous Hrebejk-Jarchovsky feature to have an American release, paternity is the key to national identityas well as domestic bliss. In that darkish comedy, set in Czechoslovakia during the German occupation, a Jewish escapee from a concentration camp is hidden by a childless gentile couple. The local Nazi collaborationist has designs on the spare room in the couple's apartment and so, in a deeply ironic evocation of national rebirth, the fugitive secures everyone's position by getting the woman pregnant.
Up and Down
Directed by Jan Hrebejk
Sony Pictures Classics
Opens February 25
Less optimistic in its view of cultural identity and not so generous in its sense of human relations, Up and Down features two families of disparate classes, with new or returned children. An abandoned Indian baby is sold on the black market to the quasi-reformed soccer hooligan Franta (Czech rock star Jiri Machacek) and his desperately childless wife, Mila (Natasa Burger). Elsewhere in Prague, the bourgeois professor Otto collapses (while delivering a class lecture on immigration) and, facing a risky medical operation, stage-manages a reunion with his long-abandoned wife, Vera, her redundancy emphasized by her job as a Russian translator, and their son Martin, the proprietor of a Brisbane surf shop, who has not communicated with his father in 20 years.
A movie of bilious light and cramped, cluttered spaces, Up and Down is broader than the classic Czech comedies that are referenced both in its tone and casting. (The parts of Otto and Vera are taken by actors, Jan Triska and Emilia Vasaryova, associated with the '60s new wave; Petr Forman, the son of Milos Forman, plays Martin.) The narrative is a matter of spiraling complications and absurd misunderstandings, many of them staged around the dinner table. Meanwhile, the two utterly different but equally unstable families head toward each other like ships in the nightthe inevitable convergence occurring at the KFC where Franta works as a security guard.
American fast-food franchises are only one aspect of the new Czech social order. From Otto's excruciating riff on an African student whose Christian name is Lenin to the fellow hooligan who visits Franta and freaks when he sees the complexion of his friend's new baby, every other conversation in the movie obsessively returns to the subject of the country's newcomers. The professor's new companion works in a refugee center. To bait her, Vera complains that she's the ethnic minority in her buildingthe other apartments are inhabited by "nothing but immigrants from Slovakia, Romania, and other armpits." ("Mom, I'm an immigrant too," Martin mildly points out.) Late in the movie former president Václav Havel appears as himself, escorting a pair of visiting Burmese dissidents. And of course, most of the lowlife thieves are Gypsies.
Up and Down is not exactly the toughest movie on the block, but especially compared to most American comedies, it conveys a sense of scrofulous rue. As the Czech Republic struggles to find its place in the European free market, those who can escape to happier lands do so. The closest thing to a Czech national rebirth the film provides is the sterile idiot nationalism of the soccer hooligans. The only justice is the beating that Franta administers, unknowing, to the agent of his misery. Life goes on, as embodied by the collection of mechanical toys that Vera keeps on her shelf.

PCI 3.0 special report: Reviewing the state of payment card compliance
A comprehensive collection of articles, videos and more, hand-picked by our editors
PCI QSA analysis: PCI DSS 3.0 to bring new PCI challenges, benefits
A veteran QSA believes PCI DSS 3.0 will help both QSAs and enterprises, but says further clarifications are needed to avoid PCI assessment disputes.
PCI 3.0 special report: Reviewing the state of payment card compliance
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) version 3.0 was officially released on Nov. 7, 2013...

As a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) who has performed many PCI audits for merchants and service providers during the past six years, I have been reviewing PCI 3.0 and my analysis is positive. However, the PCI Security Standards Council (SSC) has missed some key opportunities to clarify the standard and address compliance as it relates to emerging technologies.
Overall thoughts
Generally, PCI 3.0 is an improvement over PCI 2.0, containing important clarifications and some new required controls but not fundamentally changing basic PCI requirements or how QSAs will assess them.
PCI 3.0 is based on the same 12 core requirements as PCI 2.0. Organizations that must comply with PCI DSS should plan to continue to document, implement and maintain the basic PCI requirements that they have been required to comply with for the past few years, including strong passwords, detailed logging, user access control and the like.
Organizations should expect a PCI 3.0 assessment to be similar to a PCI 2.0 assessment but more transparent and consistent. This is because, in general, PCI 3.0 provides better guidance to QSAs about what to assess and what evidence is needed to confirm that a control is in place.
Significant new requirements
While the structure of the standard and the assessment process won't be much different, there are several significant new PCI 3.0 requirements that organizations should be prepared to comply with.
First of all, PCI 3.0 requires several new controls to protect point-of-sale (POS) devices from tampering and substitution. To meet these new requirements, many organizations will need to develop and implement new POS security processes, such as maintaining up-to-date inventories, performing periodic POS inspections and providing employee training about POS security. QSAs will expect all such processes to be thoroughly documented and regularly performed.
An important new PCI 3.0 requirement is that risk assessments must be performed annually and when any significant changes are made to a cardholder data environment (CDE). Currently, many organizations only perform an annual risk assessment of their CDE; there will likely be debates between organizations and QSAs about what constitutes a "significant change." This is a specific point that organizations should discuss with their QSAs prior to an on-site assessment.
Another substantial PCI 3.0 requirement states that organizations will need to evaluate evolving malware threats for any systems not considered to be commonly affected by malicious software. In other words, organizations must explain and justify why they don't have antimalware software running on non-Windows operating systems (e.g., Linux, Unix). This is critical as it will cause organizations to think carefully about evolving non-Windows threats. In turn, QSAs will be compelled to scrutinize antimalware controls on all platforms more carefully.
Additionally, PCI 3.0 mandates that service providers with remote access to CDEs must use a unique authentication credential for each customer environment -- a requirement that will undoubtedly enhance security. It is not unusual for QSAs to find service providers using a common authentication credential to manage multiple client environments. To prepare, service providers should start implementing new customer and password management processes, and merchants should obtain confirmation from their service providers that this control is being met. QSAs will need to carefully review related policies and procedures to determine how to best verify that service providers are complying with the control.
Another related change requires organizations to formally document which PCI DSS requirements are managed by each of their service providers and which are managed in-house. Furthermore, organizations must maintain a written agreement with their service providers verifying that the provider maintains all applicable PCI DSS requirements.
I think the above two controls are excellent additions. QSAs often find that organizations do not completely understand which PCI functions their service providers are responsible for, or make incorrect assumptions about those functions. These two new controls will result in good, healthy discussions between organizations and service providers about who is responsible for what. It will also help QSAs clearly understand who is responsible for particular controls within a CDE.
Finally, per PCI 3.0, penetration testing must validate that all segmentation technology and methods an organization uses to isolate its CDE from other networks are operational and effective. This excellent control will help ensure that a CDE is correctly defined and will be welcomed by QSAs.
Minor new requirements
In addition to the new major requirements, PCI 3.0 includes other controls that will also affect organizations' PCI DSS compliance, just not as drastically.
For instance, PCI 3.0 requires an organization to formally define its CDE beyond what was necessary with PCI 2.0, by having an up-to-date diagram that shows all payment card data flows across systems and maintaining an inventory of systems (including authorized wireless access points) that are in scope for PCI. Careful and thorough CDE definition is critical for a QSA, making this a great mandate. Fortunately, many organizations already have these controls as part of their current PCI compliance programs.
Another new PCI 3.0 requirement, which is likely to impact larger organizations more than smaller ones, is that access needs and privileges for all roles allowed access to CDE systems must be formally defined and documented. This will likely mean additional planning and pre-assessment preparation work for larger organizations.
Areas that need clarification, inclusion
In general, PCI 3.0 provides distinct guidance, but it does contain some important language that needs clarification.
First, PCI 3.0 requires organizations to implement a process to investigate and respond to all alerts generated by their file change-detection system. File change-detection software can generate many alerts each day -- some significant, some not. There is likely to be debate among QSAs and organizations about how organizations must respond to such alerts and how to document the response.
Special coverage:
- Highlights from SearchSecurity's special report on the debut of PCI DSS 3.0:
- PCI DSS 3.0 is a step forward, says one QSA, but there are uncertainties that may cause problems during PCI assessments.
- Compliance expert Mike Chapple reviews PCI's successes and failures in its nine-year history.
- SearchSecurity's exclusive Visual timeline: This history of PCI DSS examines the key events in the history of PCI DSS, from Y2K to PCI DSS 3.0.
Also, PCI 3.0 includes a requirement that, in addition to required daily review of the logs from critical CDE systems and all systems that could impact the security of payment card data, organizations may review logs of all other systems periodically based on the organization's risk assessment. It is not clear what falls into the "all other systems" category, and there is likely to be debate among QSAs and organizations about how often these logs should be reviewed.
Additionally, like many other QSAs, I was hoping to see some language in PCI 3.0 regarding emerging technologies, such as the cloud and mobile payments. Without such guidance, QSAs will continue making judgments about such technologies based on information supplements, PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) frequently asked questions (FAQs) and, hopefully, upcoming additional guidance. Unfortunately, PCI 3.0 also has no new language regarding virtualization, which could have been greatly beneficial.
PCI DSS 3.0 is an important improvement on the existing standard, but it does not significantly change what organizations must do to comply with PCI, nor how QSAs will conduct PCI assessments.
In 2014, organizations will be able to choose to assess themselves against either PCI 2.0 or PCI 3.0, with all organizations transitioning to 3.0 by the beginning of 2015.

This is what I think about the Green Bay Packers
Wednesday, December 21, 2005
The Packers
WR Rod Gardner off waivers from Carolina. He probably is an improvement over WR Andrae Thurman for the number 3 wide receiver, but that isn't saying much. If Gardner was playing well at all, then Carolina would have probably kept him. Carolina has been desperate for a receiver to play alongside WR Steve Smith all season, and apparently Gardner hasn't done anything to prove himself in Carolina. It is hard to imagine Gardner having any impact for the Packers.

SoundTracking moves beyond mobile with the launch of its new Spotify app
- 2
SoundTracking launched at SXSW in 2011, and TNW was on hand not long after with our first impressions of the service.
In a nutshell, the app is like a cross between Instagram for music, or Shazam with a social sharing option. With a few taps, users can identify a song and share a snippet, a photo and location, tapping Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare.
"This event was off the charts"
Gary Vaynerchuk was so impressed with TNW Conference 2016 he paused mid-talk to applaud us.
Before today, SoundTracking was available as an iOS and Android app, but now the company behind it – Schematic Labs – is launching a dedicated Spotify app, with a slew of enhanced features for the music-streaming platform.
The company is quick to point out that SoundTracking is "best experienced" using its mobile apps. It recommends that you post songs in the wild, then use Spotify to listen to it as a playlist.
First up, you'll need to sign-in with Facebook or Twitter to use the app. Now, while listening to music within Spotify, you can share songs, photos and captions directly with your friends using the SoundTracking app.
You can also create playlists from any SoundTracking feed – this could be your own soundtrack, a favorite DJ or via one of your friends. It's possible to add photos to your personal soundtracks by integrating with Instagram, too.
You can show your love by using your likes, loves and comments to let others know what you're currently digging across the platform.
A nice addition to SoundTracking's armory of apps, and certainly worth checking out.
Meanwhile, check out TNW's interview with Steve Jang, SoundTracking's CEO and founder, at Dublin Web Summit last week.

The Bosch Aquastar 125B gas tankless water heater was first manufactored back in the late 1980's. The 125B series has since been discontinued and replaced with newer compact models such as the 1600P gas tankless water heater.
When the Bosch Aquastar 125B model first came out, it had a dual port brass watervalve and then years later the Bosch Aquastar 125B series heater had a new single port polymer water valve which was much easier to service and maintain.
The replacement watervalve for the 125B series heater that had a dual port brass watervalve assembly is now a single port polymer watervalve retrofit kit. This watervalve assembly retrofit kit is required for any heater with a serial number beginning with 380 or lower. This kit includes new cold and hot water pipes, washers and the single port polymer watervalve so that it can be easily installed in the place of the old brass water valve. The new watervalve retrofit kit for the 125B part number #8707002499 is available. Please visit the link. There is also a service bulletin available for installation of the new retrofit water valve and the bulletin number is TWH-G1-37 and you can find this on the Bosch website at www.bosch-climate.us
The newer Bosch Aquastar model 125B gas tankless water heaters that had a serial number beginning with 381 or higher had the single port poly watervalve. The new single port Polymer water valve for the 125B part number #8707002649 is available. Please visit the link.

Dear Sir;
Serial numbers beginning with numbers such as 090... 087... etc. were numbers before the 380. The older heaters had a metal Brass colored water valve and the newer 125B heaters after 380 had a new polymer water valve. I hope this helps and if you have any further questions please call us at 888-726-9752

Senators Mark Udall and Michael Bennet today released the following statements regarding the announcement that the Colorado Health Benefit Exchange will receive a $43,486,747 competitive grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to help establish the state's health insurance exchange. HHS is awarding competitive grants to states who have shown progress in establishing their exchanges. The awards are based on the needs and planned expenditures of each state.
"I welcome today's news that Colorado has been awarded this important funding which will provide our state with a strong foundation to establish a competitive health insurance marketplace designed specifically by Coloradans and for Coloradans," Udall said. "This award is a testament to the statewide collaborative effort that will increase access to affordable health insurance options and empower Coloradans to choose the best option to meet their individual health needs."
"Colorado is hard at work to have the state's health exchange ready to go in 2014," Bennet said. "It will provide consumers an access point to shop for private insurance plans that are competing in the free market for their business. Hundreds of thousands of Coloradans who now don't have insurance or who have insurance in the unstable, high-cost individual market will have a range of more affordable options through the new exchange. Although we have more to do to drive down health care costs, Colorado's exchange is an important step for families who need access to the health care system."
Colorado has previously been awarded a planning grant and an establishment grant to help set up its exchange. Colorado is receiving its second establishment award to continue efforts to set up the services and systems to launch Colorado's new health insurance exchange. Specifically, funds from this grant will provide the Colorado Health Benefit Exchange the resources to meet deadlines for certification, testing and deployment of systems and operations.

- sugars47g
- fibre2g
- protein5g
- salt0.59g
- 200g cold, unsalted butter, cubed
- 350g plain flour, plus extra for rolling out
- ½ tsp ground ginger (optional)
- 100g golden caster sugar
- 1 egg yolk
For the filling
Blitz the butter, flour and ginger, if using, in a food processor until the mix looks like fine crumbs. Stir in the sugar, then add the egg yolk and 2 tsp cold water. Pulse until the dough clumps together, or bring it together with a knife by hand. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and press into a smooth round. Chill for 30 mins or until firm.
Roll out the pastry to the thickness of 2 x £1 coins and stamp out 8 x 11cm circles (or cut around a saucer and trim to fit tins). Line 8 x 10cm width heart-shaped tins with the pastry. Re-roll trimmings. With a small cutter, stamp out 8 hearts to decorate. Chill tins and hearts for 15 mins or until firm. Heat oven to 170C/fan 150C/gas 5 and put a baking sheet in.
Stir the syrup, lemon juice and zest together. Divide the breadcrumbs between tins (they should reach to the top of the pastry), then spoon the syrup over slowly, adding more once the first lot has started to soak in. Top with the small pastry hearts. Put tins onto the hot baking sheet and bake for 25 mins or until pastry is golden and the filling is orangey-gold and slightly set. Leave to cool for 15 mins, then turn onto a wire rack. Serve just warm. Will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Heat in a low oven for 5 mins to warm through.

I tested it this morning (and found where my exception was being generated), and Cocoon is no longer unusable after that first exception. BTW I have proposed a formal release plan for Avalon framework/excalibur, and it looks as if it is going to be passed. Once Avalon 4.0 b1 is released, I propose that we stick with that release until 4.0 b2 is released. The plan states that the Beta 1 release of Avalon will be the final API and resting place for all the interfaces that make up the framework. The Beta 2 release will be bug fixes and documentation updates. The final release will be more bug fixes, and roughly one month after the beta 2 release. What it means is Avalon Framework stability is comming very soon. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, email: email@example.com | |

Book Description
Sam Spade, Dashiell Hammett's archetypally tough San Francisco detective, is more noir than L.A. Confidential and more vulnerable than Raymond Chandler's Marlowe. In The Maltese Falcon, the best known of Hammett's Sam Spade novels (including The Dain Curse and The Glass Key), Spade is tough enough to bluff the toughest thugs and hold off the police, risking his reputation when a beautiful woman ...

Luxury car manufacturer Mercedes Benz is unveiling their 2014 Mercedes Benz E 63 AMG S 4matic in Barcelona. The car was a sleek white and it kind of resembles last years model but them main difference is this one was better because its a newer model.
Barcelona, Spain: Do you ever find yourself humming a random verse from a song just because it seems to fit the moment? Maybe its just me. On this day the line, If you go out in the woods today, youre sure of a big surprise, is shuffling through my mind on continuous repeat. It all started the moment we went into the secret parking garage and took delivery of a brilliant white 2014 Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG S 4MATIC.

Now you can access the value of the hidden field (inpHide) in your code-behind when the user submits the page—in this case, with a button click as shown below:
protected void btnJSValue_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { txtJSValue.Text = inpHide.Value; }
In this example, the <body> tag has an onload attribute that calls the JavaScript function that sets the hidden variable (<body onload="SetHiddenVariable()">). But you don't have to set the hidden field value in the onload function; you can set it however you like—as long as you set the hidden field's value before you postback the page, you'll be able to access the value from the server-side code after the postback occurs.

Build Log
Blu-F-O Part 1
I've been working on this design since last fall. It's loosely inspired by a design called the "Blue_Wonder". A nearby club uses the "Blue Wonder" as an inexpensive, single design, full contact, club combat platform. One of our club members named John has built a couple "Blue Wonders". Another club member named Leo was inspired by the performance of John's Blue Wonder and built a modified "Depron Wonder" from 6mm Depron by adding a fuselage to house the battery and electronics.
Inspired by John and Leo, but wanting a plane with a few more curves, I did a quick little concept sketch. I scanned my sketch and imported it into AutoCAD. I then drew up my first set of plans based on the sketch. It took me a little over a week to build my first protoype, which flew very nicely. The only thing I didn't care for on the prototype were the proportions of the fuselage. So I tweaked the plans a little and built a second version, which I completed in about 10 hours from cutting to flying. The second prototype flew just like the first. I've decided to call my version the "Blu-F-O". I just did a build thread for this model: https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show....php?t=1655800 ImagesView all Images in thread |

From Mega Ran:
The SXSW Report, New Interview & More
if you're not going to Austin for SXSW, don't worry, I got you covered... stay tuned to my twitter, i'm sure I'll have all kinds of stuff to share.
Let's get on with it..
First up is a really dope interview done by the folks at Spinner, check that out! in it i reveal my secret celeb crush, and my musical guilty pleasure, among other things..
Next, I found myself in this week's issue of the Phoenix New Times, both online and print, so AZ peeps, grab one of those!
Also, not sure if you saw the Mega Ran "Here We Go Again" video, but it's on Kotaku this week, arguably the biggest gaming blog...in the universe.
check that out and LOL at the comments, accusing the video of being...racist of all things... wow.
OKAY...If you're not even sure what the heck a SXSW is.. its okay, i'm a teacher, so I teach...
SXSW is one of the largest music festivals in the United States, with more than 1,400 performers playing in more than 80 venues around Austin over four days, in March. Though it is an industry-based event, SXSW Music links locally with events such as the annual Austin Music Awards show. SXSW is the highest revenue-producing special event for the Austin economy, with an estimated economic impact of at least $110 million in 2008. [1][2][3]
In 1994, SXSW added film and interactive conferences. SXSW Film has become one of the world's premiere film festivals, focusing on new directing talent. Similarly, SXSW Interactive has attracted a strong following among web creators and entrepreneurs. SXSW Interactive's focus on emerging technology has earned the festival a reputation as a breeding ground for new ideas and creative technologies. Twitter launched at SXSW Interactive in 2007.
The music event has grown from 700 registrants in 1987 to nearly 12,000 registrants. SXSW Film and SXSW Interactive events attract approximately 11,000 registrants to Austin every March.[4]
Anyway, I'll be quite busy this week in Texas, as I'm doing half of interactive week, and half of music, so if you're anywhere near Austin, you need to be there! This is what my schedule looks like right now....
March 15, 2010 (Live Performance) @ Flamingo Cantina, Austin, TX, 12AM (no SXSW wristbands needed!)

I'm packing now, so I'll catch you guys on the flip side.. hope to see you in Texas or at a venue near you!
