Fill Your Home with Fresh Cut Roses
A well placed arrangement of fresh cut roses adds beauty and elegance to any space. Unfortunately for us arrangements will not stay fresh forever, but there are steps we can take to lengthen the time we have to enjoy fresh cut roses.
Cut Roses in the Morning
Cutting roses in the middle of the day will cause them to wither much faster. Plus, it is more pleasant to cut roses in morning than in the blazing midday sun.
Take Warm Water to the Garden
Cutting a rose from the bush will remove it from its source of food and water as well as open it up to air which causes the rose to deteriorate. Placing freshly cut stems in water as quickly as possible will prevent air bubbles from moving up the stem and will keep the roses hydrated.
Cut at a 5Leaflet
Encourage healthy growth by cutting above a five leaflet at a 45° angle. Cutting an outward facing five leaflet encourages new growth away from the center of the bush. Cutting at a 45° angle allows water to roll off the cane preventing bacteria and fungus from collecting on the cane.
Remove Leaves and Thorns
Decomposing foliage encourages bacteria growth in the water which shortens the lifespan of your cut roses. Leave foliage at the top of the stem and remove any leaves that will be below the waterline in your vase.
Use a Sanitized Vase and Add a Floral Preservative
Using a vase without sanitizing it first introduces old bacteria to the fresh roses shortening their lifespan. When making an arrangement, start with a clean vase and add a floral preservative which inhibits bacteria growth, feeds the stem, and acidifies the water.
Change the Water
Every two days, empty the old water and refill the vase with clean water and more floral preservative. This will keep the bacteria levels down and keep the roses fresher longer.
Let the fragrance of fresh cut roses fill your home all season long by following these simple steps.

School: Saint Louis Laboratory High School
Baguio City, Benguet, Philippines
4 students, ages 14-15 worked together to complete this Doors to Diplomacy project on March 15, 2012.
They have participated in Doors to Diplomacy in the following year(s): 2011
Classes and Teachers: Florida Martin, Vincent Tabor, Leonard, Nelson, Paolo, Alexander

1. Description of Our Team
When the Doors to Diplomacy project was announced in SLU-LHS, most pupils got excited in joining, including high-school Junior Nelson, along with some of his friends in the classroom. He sought the aid of Leonard and Alex in making the website, which they later called "Philippines United Across the World". When the group learned that they need more help in making the project, they recruited Paolo in the group since he has plenty of Ideas for the project. They performed their duties well and after almost a week, a primal work of their project was made, and after a month, their project was done. And here are the identities of the members: a.Nelson A.(15) – Nelson had a knack for making websites, and because of this, when he had been given the task to encode the website and launch it, he had done it successfully and the others were thankful that he had been there to design the project. b.Alex G. (14)– Alex is very good in looking for websites to aid him in his home works so he was then given the task to research a bibliography for the project. c.Paolo G. (15)– Paolo is really creative and full of ideas so when he was asked to suggest any ideas for the project, he proved his creativity by giving the members a full format for a website therefore, he was given the duty to plan how the project will look like. d.Leonard O.(15)- When he was recruited in the group, he updated the members of what the project is all about, what it needs, what the format is, and what the members will do, so he gave himself the task of being the group leader and he also planned the execution of the project very well.
2. Summary of Our Project
Philippines nowadays, had been facing a lot of crisis in other countries in the past years. The OFW's are sometimes getting in trouble with the embassy of the country they're at, and some countries even banned travel to the Philippines because of all the crisis that is happening in here. That's why we've decided on making the project; we want to make people know that the Philippines is a foreigner-friendly country and also a great place to be. We want to show our project in an international contest to get a chance to show that The Philippines has great relations with other countries to make foreigners feel secure about us, and ourselves about us. In our project, we would like to present the lives of the Filipinos across the world; the OFW's, tourists, campaign workers, and other kinds of Filipinos. We would like to do that because the Filipinos are honorable, yet some are being disrespected by some foreigners for whatever reasons they may be. We would plan to give rise to the foreign relations of our country so that the Filipinos across the world would enjoy being across the world, knowing that they are secure in the embassy of the country they're in. We would also like to present our hospitality in other countries so that the Philippines can be a place that can truly be remembered by many people and foreigners. We would also like to present our many different and uniquely special qualities that make us Filipinos worthy enough people in foreign countries that are in this world. Through this website, we like to present our connection to other countries that makes Philippines a friendly country that is also special and pleasant to be with. And thus, we created the project for all of these hopes to come to reality. 3

4. Problems We Had To Overcome
First of all, there was this time when one of our group mates got ill and we had to decide on who shall temporarily replace our ill group mate for the mean time. We chose the next qualified person for the job until our friend gets better. Then, there was also this time when one of the web pages we were working on failed to load on the computer...only to find out that the file manager deleted the web page by accident and we had to repeat the process all over again until we had new ideas to apply. Whenever these problems occurred, sometimes we felt discouraged on doing the project and almost quit, but the need to show the world what our goal is, was a motivation for us to finish the project and launch it.
5. Our Project Sound Bite
While doing this project, we went through many sites to research upon the Philippines' foreign relations. We added those to our bibliography and credits, and placed their URL on our web pages. But when we can't find the things we needed on the internet, we then scanned through books and found what we needed. But if we haven't still found the information we needed, we turned to interview people who might've had some ideas about the Philippines' foreign relations, like Nelson's dad, Mr. Abansi, who've worked with some foreign clients in his past few years of being a lawyer.
6. How did your activities and research for this Doors to Diplomacy Project support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards?
While doing this project, we learned more about the Philippines and its history in the process. But more importantly, we learned that we always have friends to guide us in times where we are at our most weakest and feeble state. We learned that we can't always do things ourselves, and that's the reason why God made people, why bread needs butter, why Eve was for Adam, and why the world needs unity. These lessons may not seem to support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards at first, but if you learn from it, these lessons will support more than just that...the World.
1) What information tools & technologies did you used to complete your Doors to Diplomacy project?
The tools we needed are these: a.Computer-for encoding the needed codes and to view the website. (mostly LG and DELL brands used) b.Facebook-to contact each other and make plans. (No mobile phones because the other group mates don't have phones) c.Microsoft Office, Notepad-to present data. d.The School Library-Whenever the Internet doesn't have what we need, we turn to books for knowledge. (Encyclopedia used) Without these tools and technology, our project will most likely fail.
2) In what ways did you act as "ambassadors" and spokespersons for your Doors to Diplomacy project both on-line and in person.
We acted in such different ways-but few enough for us to explain here. Like most ambassadors/spokespersons, we took hold of our job responsibly and correctly. We also didn't look at the project prize for what we know we all need is the greater effect the project will do. We also looked at the people so that we will gain motivation for our everyday tasks and deeds.
3) What has been the impact of your project on your community?
We hope that the project will be known world wide so that foreigners can see it and feel secure about us. That way, the community members will then feel safe of what foreigners think about us.
4) How did your project involve other members of your community as helpers and volunteers?
In the process of making the project, we included many people and organizations. We included our teacher, because she was the one who gave us information about the Doors to Diplomacy project. We also included the websites we've been foe they supplied us with these contents: Images, Backgrounds, History, Embassies, Relations, and many more. And lastly, there was the companies who produced electricity for our tools and gadgets.

Control Schemes Part 3:Wii-mote and Nunchuck Attachment
In the third and last segment of this series of articles, Powerplay brings its focus on the special Wii-mote and its nunchuck attachment.
Thumbs up: After seeing the Wii-mote and its nunchuck attachment in action through some of the trailers, I was impressed. Players seem to behave like themselves when playing games with the remote. Actually, that is the aim of the Nintendo Wii – to revolutionalize the way games are played. No longer constricted to just buttons and sticks, players are free to move the remote about, making it feel as if they are the game characters themselves. This is one of the ingredients crucial to the extent of immersion of the game by the players. It is going to feel natural, realistic and just think of any exciting words that you can conjure out in your mind. Like the PS3 controller, the Wii-mote and its nunchuck attachment are also motion-sensitive, but it takes it a step further – the design and the shape of the controller is totally changed. It can work very much like a sword, a gun, a crossbow, a tennis racket, a magic wand, just about anything. Perhaps I should say that the control scheme is most suited to FPS games. The concept is: Point and shoot, exactly like what you will do in reality. What happens when you see an enemy? You instantly aim your weapon at the enemy and shoot. The same applies here. You get what I mean? Not only is this control scheme fantastic for FPS games, but also for sports games, and Nintendo is going to shove Wii Sports in your face and say, "I'm packaging it free with the console, so you must try it!" Just remember not to confuse the Wii-mote with a baseball bat and use it to hit someone. Do you remember flying paper aeroplanes when you were young? That is what happens when you play flight simulation games with the Wii-mote. Imagine the Wii-mote as a paper aeroplane and there you go, you are back in your childhood. Flying the Wii-mote in flight simulation games (example: Wing Island) just like what a kid does with the paper aeroplane.
Thumbs down: I am amazed by the versatility of the Wii-mote because it can be also held horizontally to represent a classic controller. But hey, the thing is that must be done in order for racing games to be played. In my opinion, tilting the Wii-mote left and right to steer your vehicle may give way to overly sensitive controls. What happens if someone accidentally knocks my hand and I tilt the Wii-mote too steeply? But until I play a racing game on the Wii, I am not going to jump to conclusions. The second flaw with the Wii-mote is that you may look weird when using it in party games like Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. Imagine holding the Wii-mote over your head. Well, as far as screenshots are concerned, it sure looks gimmicky. Just an advice: Don't invite your friends over when you play such games. Also, I have noticed that some game developers have shunned the Wii-mote. As the Wii-mote is vastly different from other controllers, developers may be led into thinking that building a new control scheme just for the Wii versions of their games may be a little tedious and time consuming. But it remains to be seen if the Wii's future is filled with hardcore, thrilling games (examples: Far Cry Vengeance, Red Steel, Splinter Cell Double Agent, Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam) and fabulous, light-hearted family games (examples: Super Mario Galaxy, Wii Sports, Wii Music, SpongeBob Squarepants: Creature from the Krusty Krab) or with second-rate games that may overuse the special features of the Wii-mote.

Yup, that's right...
Rob's peeing standing up.
Now some of you might think:
"Isn't it easier to have him sit?"
Not with Rob.
When he sits to pee, he insists taking off:
his pants
his underwear
his shoes
even his socks.
No joke.
This will make my life so much easier.
What's your "good news minute"?

My little guy turned 4 on 8/2 and just within the past few weeks I taught him to pee standing up.. this is AFTER guys in my office made me feel like crap for having a 4 year old that still sits down. He still will sit, occasionally, when he wakes sleepy eyed to go potty. But I will admit, I'm cleaning the toilet more frequently.. Sheesh!

So stinkin' cute! Yes, that is the joy with boys! They pee anywhere! And I had a kid when I did Sunbeams that stripped down everytime he went potty... I was pregnant, needed my gall bladder out, and so impatient. It got on my nerves so much! I am glad for you he got to this milestone! Now... does he still strip to poop?

- bedelia said...
So far my count is 2 for 2 getting naked to go pee. There are hallelujah choruses when they figure out the standing thing. Stripping down in public bathrooms is so disgusting.
Complete random, that is the weirdest little shelf behind the toilet.
good news, I'm gonna go eat a brownie.

So cute....cant wait for my little boy (a few months younger than your Rob) to be toilet trained....he doesnt seem to be interested at the moment, which is distressing me somewhat as he turns 3 in December!! At what age did Rob become toilet trained??
My good news minute is that I lasted yet another gruelling gym session....so feel quite happy and satisfied with myself....tomorrow when the pain hits well thats another story!!!
- October 17, 2010 at 9:21 PM
I was happy when my husband taught my son to pee standing up. He also took all of his clothes to pee. Yay, Rob!

By MARK KENNY
Moore / The future is here – and it looks good
"The sooner our next generation of outstanding leaders bumps off the self-interested old farts who fail to count the cost to others, to the environment and to the planet, the better," writes MICHAEL MOORE
THE challenges facing humankind can seem overwhelming, but having glimpsed some of the next generation's outstanding leaders, I believe the future of our world is in good hands.
At the recent World Health Assembly in Geneva I had the opportunity to ponder the future among so many impressive young professionals providing great optimism for a bright future.
Aimee Brownbill is just one example. A young South Australian PhD candidate who has been elected to the board of the Public Health Association of Australia, she interrupted a dream holiday in Europe to attend the World Health Assembly. Her understanding, insight and vision for the future reinforced the importance of encouraging young professionals to engage.
The World Health Assembly was also the venue for the launch of an international indigenous working group of the World Federation of Public Health Associations (WFPHA). This group has had strong support from Australia and NZ, and particularly from Ken Wyatt, the Federal Minister for Indigenous Health.
Another PhD candidate and Yorta Yorta woman, Summer May Finlay is proving a dynamic force in Aboriginal health.
Finlay has stepped on to the world stage to make a difference for indigenous people internationally. Her contribution at the World Congress on Public Health in Melbourne as a keynote speaker for young professionals and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples was outstanding.
The work she has done with the other indigenous leaders is simply inspiring. The future of indigenous peoples internationally is challenging. However, we do have outstanding leaders, including the next generation, who are ready to do the work.
The International NCD Alliance provides hope for the future. Involved are Alessandro Demaio and Lucy Westerman, remarkable leaders from the next generation, who have recognised the importance of tackling non-communicable disease and its root causes. They are tackling the industry mantra that such diseases are simply about personal responsibility. Their focus is on the obesogenic environment and the "causes of the causes". This means taking on some huge industry players internationally including big tobacco, big alcohol and unhealthy food manufacturers.
There are other challenges. I shopped one evening in a Sainsbury's supermarket for the first time in about three years. Within hours my Twitter account was sullied by a series of uninvited hits from the company. Ironically, it was on the same day Europe adopted the General Data Protection Regulation, a law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union as well as personal data outside of the EU.
In an era of growing social media we need young, energetic people with an understanding of influence of industry on politics and decision making. The consequences of widespread adoption of digital technology and the necessary protections from big business will have consequences for the health of the next generations and their planetary inheritance.
Health ought to be considered a marker for the future. Planetary health is fundamental. The concept includes humans, animals and the environment and the interaction between all of them. Economic productivity is important – provided it is sustainable.
However for a bright future, economics needs to be considered in the context of the social and environmental consequences. This is sometimes referred to as the triple bottom line. The sooner our next generation of outstanding leaders bumps off the self-interested old farts who fail to count the cost to others, to the environment and to the planet, the better.
Michael Moore is a former member of the ACT Legislative Assembly and an independent minister for health in the Carnell government. He is the Immediate Past President of the World Federation of Public Health Associations.

As reported by Censor.NET citing Ukrinform, this was announced by Naftohaz Ukrainy head Andrii Koboliev on air of Channel 5 on Wednesday night.
"This matter was raised during the most recent talks of Ukraine's PM with Vice-President of the European Commission Šefčovič. We hope to return to the trilateral format of talks with Russians, which might bring some results," Koboliev said.
The head of Naftohaz reminded that Ukraine does not import gas from the Russian Federation at the moment for there is no consent with Gazprom in terms of signing an additional agreement to the gas supply contract, without which renewal of gas import from Russia is not possible, Naftohaz says.
Koboliev noted that Ukraine is able to pump 14.5 billion cubic meters of gas to its underground gas storage facilities prior to the beginning of the heating season without Russian supplies.
At the same time, a possibility to import gas not only from European, but also from Russian direction by signing an addendum "will be useful for us, for we strive to optimize the portfolio and buy gas from diverse suppliers at the lowest price."
Koboliev added that currently the company buys gas from the EU at its own cost, but it hopes to start buying it with EBRD loan of $300 million from August, and with the Wold Bank loan of $500 million from September.
Earlier, head of Naftohaz Ukrainy Andrii Koboliev announced that the company had received gas pricing from Russia's Gazprom and was awaiting a formal offer to start buying gas.
Naftohaz insists that an additional agreement to effective contract is signed, which will allow supplies of gas, for effective contract cannot provide for such guarantees.
In June, Gazprom announced of receiving a request by Naftohaz about renewal of gas supplies from Russia to Ukraine starting from second half of 2016 until April of 2017.

VBP Dedication Cards
The grass whithereth, the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand forever.
Isaiah 40:8
Years ago we as a church began dedicating Bibles in lieu of flowers in an expression of sympathy toward those in bereavement. We've found this to be very practical and those in bereavement have consistently communicated their gratitude for this method of expressing our condolences. We began the Victory Baptist Press Dedication Card Program in 2011 to provide Bible-believing churches with an opportunity to be a blessing to God's people while investing in God's worldwide mission through a ministry that is doctrinally sound, missions-oriented, and committed to the King James Bible. We now have over 100 churches participating in the dedication card program. We provide churches with a fully stocked acrylic card rack with four different greeting card designs. If your church would like to obtain a card rack please have your pastor email us here. Below are further instructions on how to use the cards and how to obtain additional cards to refill your card rack.
How to Set Up Your Rack: The provided rack is designed for either a counter display or a wall-mount.
The enclosed cards are in order; simply place one design per pocket.
How to Dedicate Bibles: Enclosed in each Greeting Card there is an envelope pre-addressed to Victory Baptist Press and a VBP donation card. Simply make your check payable to Victory Baptist Press and complete the donation card indicating the total of your donation and the appropriate dedication information. Remit your donation card to VBP in the pre-addressed envelope. There is a place in the Greeting Card to indicate how
many Bibles you have dedicated. You should fill out the Greeting Card accordingly and send it to the person or family you're dedicating the Bibles in honor of.
How to Obtain Additional Dedication Cards: You may contact Crystal Perrine with the Victory Baptist Press to obtain additional cards to refill your rack. She may be reached via email at firstname.lastname@example.com
or by phone at 850-384-1171. We've also placed her contact information on the back of the rack itself.
A Friendly Suggestion: At our church we have a person designated to keep the rack in order, insure that there is a sufficient supply of cards, and send an appropriate card on behalf of the church to families in bereavement. You may want to consider assigning this special ministry to someone in your church as well.

Very Cute :)ReplyDelete
My family had a tortoise when I was young - we got him in 1977 and named him Jubilee as it was the Silver Jubilee year.
Once he was found wandering down a neighbouring street - he was returned by a neighbour who knew we had a tortoise.
Love the items you have chosen.
Thanks for including my tortoise! You're so lucky to have a pet one.ReplyDelete

[Feature Request]
For Framer Studio, it would be great if there could be indicators for mouse events in the preview! (Eg. The circle cursor indicator could pulse on mousedown, and pulse again on mouseup. Screencasting software does this usually.)
This would make demos much simpler in that the visuals would indicate what the presenter did, as opposed to presenter narrating each action they take. ("I've now tapped on this card...and now I'm dragging...and now I let it go.")
Here's a demo of what I mean :) http://cl.ly/image/3u1v2l0o3j0Q/cursor.gif
this would be pretty cool :) (although I wonder if you could just create something like it using a layer that tracks with your mouse and animates with events)

Kendall & Caitlyn Jenner Go Horseback Riding for 'KUWTK' Filming
Kendall and Caitlyn Jenner ride atop their horses on Friday (October 21) in Santa Clarita, Calif.
The two met up for some bonding time, and to film segments for an upcoming episode of their hit show Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
"Fun day with my girl!" Caitlyn captioned a photo of the girls on their horses.
In case you didn't know, riding and caring for horses was a hobby they loved to do when Kendall was younger.
FYI: Kendall is wearing Citizens of Humanity jeans.

You know what works? Printing in Adobe Reader DC. So don't waste your money purchasing a full version product from Adobe because they don't care about their customers (unless you own a Mac, apparently). Just use the free version and purchase another .pdf program from another vendor. Perhaps then you'll actually be able to use the product you purchased! Because 3 months later and I STILL can't print from Adobe Acrobat DC in Windows. But I'm glad the problem was "solved" for you Mac folks. That's a load off my mind.

Please read the thread, I have not posted previously, but I am having the same issue as every other user on this thread. Cannot print from Acrobat DC. The program seems to also freeze when i attempt to click on the properties button within the print screen. I have to end task the program and then when i reopen the problem still exists.
48. Re: Acrobat DC cannot print PDF filesmatthew.bobbitt Jun 23, 2016 9:11 AM (in response to nicoles57262248)
So, we have had this exact issue throughout my workplace (OS: Windows 7, cannot open properties from within Acrobat DC -- clicking print does nothing -- the job never spools). It's been very sporadic -- and only effects Acrobat DC. Sometimes it will print, sometimes it won't. Sometimes you can close Acrobat DC and reopen the PDF and it prints fine. Issue has been going on since about February.
After working with Adobe on it (no issues found) and our server print software folks (no issues found) we randomly started looking at our Antivirus vendor -- Vipre. Something in the local firewall policy was blocking it (yet, this will not show up in any logs). Even disabling the firewall made this issue continue. After upgrading to the latest version of their software (9.3), the issue has been resolved.
Just my 2 cents, look at your Antivirus software -- especially if it's Vipre.

I'm having the exact same problem on Windows. I came across this thread and see the last post was from June. It is now September. Can anyone advise if there is a fix for this and how to do it???
My printer works fine printing anything but from Adobe dc. I followed all the suggestions but nothing has fixed the problem.
I also tried to delete this Adobe and reload a previous version but the upgrade automatically downloads so I can't even do that.
I too have looked at my antivirus software to see if this is the problem and nothing was found...as I said, I can print anything except from adobe dc.
50. Re: Acrobat DC cannot print PDF filesEBHomes Sep 20, 2016 7:16 AM (in response to AshuMittal)
A number of our users are experiencing this issue, some running Adobe Reader DC and others running Acrobat DC (all running Windows 10 Pro x64). When pressing print in the print dialog box, the box closes but gives no indication that a job was sent. The print queue remains empty and the printer does not print. This is not specific to single printer or model.
We've found this issue only occurs when printing through a print server on our network. If I print directly to the printer via its IP address the prints come out normally. I've also found this issue to be user specific. Certain logins on a given machine will print while other users cannot. All other applications print correctly through the print server, it is specific to Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
I have tested this on a machine that does not have antivirus software installed and it still does not print.
Please Advise

All our printers run through a print server and we do not have the option to change that.
I am trying to print from Acrobat Reader DC (i.e. the free version).
I have tried printing from Windows 10 and Windows 8, and both fail with an error saying:
The document could not be printed.
There were no pages selected to print.
In Windows 8 the option to 'print as an image' was greyed out. That option was available in Windows 10 but it didn't make any difference, I got the same error messages.
I have tried different printers, HP and Xerox, with the same result. Also many different PDF files
Interestingly, when I printed from a domain account using Windows 7, it worked.
I didn't even know that it was fixed on Mac OS - it hadn't worked in so long that we all just got used to printing from Preview. So it's good to know :-).
Please fix on Windows!

I've fixed my Windows 10 / Reader DC problem finally, no thanks to the losers at Adobe who still haven't "rolled out" any form of fix despite waiting months for it.
The fix is very simple - install another PDF reader. I went for Nitro PDF Reader in the end. Works out of the box.
Hey, ashumittal, how can you describe the patch for OSX as a "correct answer" when it doesn't address the Windows users out here? Are you some sort of "affirmative employee"? How can you have any self esteem working for an outfit like this?

We are using DC on our terminal servers and this can be quite annoying. We even have the problem on printers that have over 10 characters in the name too. We use a lot of adobe products from adobe reader to acrobat to InDesign. Please get a windows patch released soon, if we have to uninstall this version it is unlikely we will be reinstalling an older version. Pry move to a different software.

I've been able to work around the issue by having the user print from Adobe Reader instead, however this is not a fix. I would like to know when a patch is released to fix this issue.
Thank you

First, change the header to NOT answered. I just experienced the problem. and going by the comments which have been running for months, clearly Adobe has NOT fixed the issue.
I was able to print up until last week then suddenly I cannot print any Adobe docs. I have also tried printing using Adobe X pro, even that does not work. Also, my HP printer prints every other document, excel, word, jepg, etc. So clearly the problem is not with the printer or my laptop (I use windows 10, and have a 1 year old Lenova laptop).
I can send the Adobe docs to my work printer and it prints there. So the problem is specific.
If Adobe cannot fix the problem they should say so, and withdraw the product from the market.
58. Re: Acrobat DC cannot print PDF filesMuzzerboy Oct 20, 2016 6:22 AM (in response to suppiramaniams21617178)
Don't waste your time waiting for Adobe to fix this. They clearly can't be bothered unless it affects more of their users. I expect the senior team are on performance bonuses for minimising the spend on support and for them this is a no-brainer win, if you forgive the pun. Familiarity breeds contempt!
Do what I did - install a free viewer like Nitro Reader 5 and if you want an editor, try something like PDFill PDF Editor. It cost peanuts to register and unlike Adobe, the publishers actually try to make their customers happy.

I have read this thread and Windows is mentioned on every other post. Same issue as MAC and the Adobe Print is also sporadic. My company is now exploring other products with better support. After the money we paid for the Adobe Pro product we feel cheated and scammed. And I am personally offended by your reference to not knowing Windows was also affected. Re-read the entire string!

Simplest answer after banging my head trying to get Acrobat DC to print and failing was to install Nitro Reader.
I had the document I needed printed 5 minutes later.
I don't know why Adobe can't get their act together? This message thread is embarrassing.

It could only be embarrassing to them if they had a sense of self respect - and respect for the customer. Instead, they clearly have much bigger things to occupy themselves with. To them, execution is just detail. Adobe seems to be just a big collection of BS artists.

Still getting the same messages:

I don't know why adobe REFUSES to not resolve it properly without the .local but at least in my site with my circumstances (Win 7 boxes, and 2k12r2 Terminal server) it appears to fix the issue. My situation on this is it just doesn't print and the dialogue box AFTER clicking print (IE print progress from adobe) doesn't show.
Every other app prints just fine without the .local

We had the "no print"/"no select" problem with Windows 10 and the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and I have finally written a work-around that actually works. (I had help from Software995.)
1. Install the free PDFedit995 software suite from Software995.com. It comes with a program called PrintPDF.exe. (It also has other stuff that you might find useful.)
2. Create the following batch file.
@echo off
Title: PrintPDF.bat
"C:\Program Files (x86)\pdf995\res\utilities\printpdf.exe" c:\temp\temp.pdf
ECHO Printing on Default Printer
3. Create a shortcut to the batch file on the desktop.
4. Designate a printer as your default printer.
5. Bring up the file to be printed in Acrobat.
6. Click on the PrintPDF.bat icon and a DOS window comes up that says "Printing on Default Printer." Clicking removes the pause while the document prints.
I'm no expert and I would hope that Adobe solves the printing problem but, meanwhile, at least I can print.

we had the same issue after the last Microsoft patch day in January 2017.
If this is the source of the problem or just a coincidence... i can't say for sure.
We've found a solution in our case.
It is the "Enhanced Security" Setting, that have to be deactivated.
You can change this setting under Preferences.
- Choose Preferences.
- From the Categories on the left, select Security (Enhanced).
- Select the Enable Enhanced Security option.
We've tested this with several users and it worked every time.

After reading your post, checked on our Viper Antivirus software.
It was the problem that was preventing the pdf documents from printing. Something about Adobe DC print is causing Vipre to block it.
Tested this by disabling Viper temporarily and sure enough we are able to print without any issues. I had to determine exactly what about Adobe is being blocked. After trial and error, I came to to these findings:
I had to add the following to the ignore list\exclusion for our Viper server.( If you don't use Viper server, you should be able to add these on the exclusion list of your Antivirus)
c:\program files (x86)\adobe\
c:\program files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\
c:\program files\adobe\
c:\program files\Common Files\Adobe\
Restart your Viper services or your computer.
Hopefully this will help some people.
Adobe please fix the issue.

Hey, my client is have the same problem. For the Adobe user who is following this thread, here is what the issue is and what was done all of which did NOT work!
User has Adobe Acrobat DC Standard and is running version 15.006.30280 with NO updates available as of this morning. She is running this on a Windows 10 system fully patched and NO updates available as of this morning. Her Printer is a HP Laserjet P3015 (connected via USB) with current drivers loaded. She also has an HP Officejet 6500 networked (Prints via IP). User can print to both printers from all programs except Acrobat DC Standard. She can print a document to the OfficeJet but not the LaserJet. I can see in the Queue that the job gets created and then it is gone just as fast but NEVER prints to the Laserjet. I have removed the Laserjet, Cleared out all temp files and shutdown the system for 3 minutes, started up and reloaded the printer from scratch. Other programs print just fine but not from Acrobat. I then disabled the anti-virus and firewall and still was not able to print. User can print PDF's to the Laserjet if they are opened via Outlook (365).
My client needs to be able to print from Acrobate as this is where she creates her reports and sends it out to her clients. Please help as this is a MAJOR need for her.
Adobe please fix this ongoing issue.

You mentioned that user is running Windows 10. I am not sure what Antivirus you are using, but I know Windows 10 comes with Windows Defender. Make sure that it is turned off or the exclusions I mentioned above is added to the exclusion list for Windows Defender.
77. Re: Acrobat DC cannot print PDF filesDov Isaacs Jan 25, 2017 11:25 AM (in response to richardh44071162)
In this case, have you considered that the problem might really be "Viper" improperly interfering with Acrobat and that Acrobat is not doing anything improper. This is known as "a false positive" in the security / antivirus world. Other antivirus and protection software such as MacAfee and Windows Defender does not have problems with Acrobat.
Have you tried calling Viper's tech support about this?

As another customer experiencing this same issue. We do not use Viper and ALL of our Acrobat Pro users started reporting this problem following the 15.006.30279 update. Issue remains even if we update to 15.006.30280. Sometimes it prints, sometimes it doesn't. You know when it's not going to print because the "Printing progress" dialog box is not displayed after they click ok.
79. Re: Acrobat DC cannot print PDF filesronnies43047989 Jan 25, 2017 11:45 AM (in response to Dov Isaacs)
Yes were working with them to implement the exclusion so that Viper does not block the folder path I specified when printing.
Not everyone here has Viper on their computers and are having problems printing.
I am just trying to put my experience with the software out there and the fix that worked for us in case it can help some one out there that maybe in the same position.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- Authorities announced Monday that they will not charge Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger after a college student accused him of sexually assaulting her at a nightclub last month.
Ocmulgee Circuit District Attorney Fred Bright said the 20-year-old student's accusations could not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and her lawyer said in a letter that she did not want to press charges.
"Therefore there will be no arrests made nor criminal prosecution against Mr. Roethlisberger," Bright said.
The woman told an officer Roethlisberger sexually assaulted her early March 5 at the Capital City night club, where he was drinking with friends shortly after his 28th birthday.
Bright said the investigation showed the woman was heavily intoxicated that night. She and her sorority sisters had met Roethlisberger at a different bar earlier in the night, and he invited them into a VIP area at the Capital City club and ordered them shots. When the woman walked down a hallway to a small bathroom, Roethlisberger followed her.

Heritage Oil Signs PSA for Blocks in Democratic Republic Congo
Heritage Oil has signed a Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) with the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to gain a 39.6% working interest in Blocks I and II. Together these cover an area over 6,000 square kilometers.
The PSA includes the portion of Lake Albert that lies in DRC adjacent to Heritage's Block 3A and Hardman Resource's Block 2 licenses in Uganda and covers both onshore and offshore acreage. Work is expected to commence on the blocks by year-end, following a Presidential Decree ratifying the Blocks, with a number of technical studies in preparation for the acquisition of 400 km of 2D seismic data on Lake Albert in 2007. This seismic campaign will target potential extensions to the geological play types already identified in the region.
Heritage's partners in the PSA are Tullow plc, its same partner as in Uganda, which holds a 48.4% interest and is the Operator of the license, while COHYDRO, the DRC state oil company, holds the remaining 12%.
Heritage's Chairman and CEO, Micael Gulbenkian, commented: "We are delighted by this agreement, which means that Heritage has further extended and consolidated its acreage position in the highly prospective Albert Graben basin where we are already active through our Ugandan properties in Block 3A and Block 1. This is an exciting development given the recent exploration successes of Hardman in its Block 2 license in Uganda, where that company has production tested its Waraga-1 well at a cumulative maximum flow rate of over 12,000 bpd, thereby proving a potentially very significant new hydrocarbon system in the basin. We believe there should be a continuation of the oil play through the basin across the international boundary between Uganda and the DRC. Our strategy is to prove-up a substantial new hydrocarbon province in the Albert Graben with licenses in the DRC and Uganda. Heritage's exploration work program on the Ugandan side of the basin is on-going, with the drilling of the Kingfisher-1 well that was spudded in August."
The Kingfisher-1 well spudded on August 15 and 10 3/4" intermediate casing has been set at 1,060 meters. As at midnight on September 12, preparations were underway to drill out with 9 7/8" hole. The well is expected to reach target total depth of between 3,000 and 4,000 meters within the next two months. Kingfisher-1 is a vertical exploration well being drilled from the shore of Lake Albert, targeting a large structural high.
Heritage is an international oil and gas corporation with a producing property in the Sultanate of Oman, a development property in Russia and exploration projects in the Republic of Uganda. The Company announced the sale of its interests in the Republic of Congo, subject to certain conditions precedent, on June 7, 2006. Through its subsidiary KPC, the Company has entered into two MOUs with the Government of Kurdistan, Iraq. Heritage Middle East, which is focusing on Iraq, has an office in Amman, Jordan.

See why reliabile equipment is critical in this World Oil® article by VP Larry Kerr.
"Although many companies were not in a position to upgrade equipment and put a preventative maintenance program in place the last few years, the time to consider investing in your equipment and processes is now" writes GD Vice President and General Manager in his executive viewpoint article from World Oil magazine. "As oilfield equipment is pushed harder for longer periods of time, it is in our best interest to put equipment reliability first."
We've seen it time and again – customers who opt to save money now wind up paying significantly more later in downtime and repairs. Gardner Denver strives to produce the highest-quality, most reliable pumps on the market for a reason – it's the right thing to do for our customers.
For more than 150 years, Gardner Denver has been synonymous with reliability. With your competition getting fiercer and jobs more intense, see why reliability matters now more than ever.

Manuscript received November 30, 2013; final manuscript received April 22, 2014; published online June 3, 2014. Assoc. Editor: Santiago Silvestre.
We report the fabrication of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) using low-cost materials (carbon ink from an inkjet printer coated on glass as the counter electrode) and made by a combination of spray deposition and doctor blade methods. We noted that the efficiency of the DSSC with the carbon-coated electrode (1.13%) was comparable to that with a platinum-coated counter electrode (1.16%). We also proposed an equivalent circuit for this solar cell. The value of the charge-transfer resistance was determined both experimentally and analytically, and we found that both approaches produced the same results. Moreover, we improved the efficiency of DSSC based carbon by depositing copper nanoparticle into the space between Titanium Dioxide (TiOv2) nanoparticle using electroplating methods.

An Analysis on Customer Care Strategy of Sainsbury
Sainsbury's was founded in London in 1869 as one of the nations' oldest retailers. It also provides a unique illustration of transformation that has occurred in retailing and in shopping and eating habits since the mid-19th century. It grew to become the largest grocery retailer in 1922, pioneered self-service retailing in the UK, and had its heyday during the 1980s. Now it is the third largest chain of supermarket in the United Kingdom with a share if the UK supermarket sector of 16.3%. The supermarket chain operates three store formats: regular Sainsbury's store ("Main Mission"), Sainsbury's Local and Sainsbury's Central (convenience stores and smaller supermarkets in urban locations—"Mixed Mission") and Sainsbury's "Main Plus" (hypermarket) stores.
2.0 An Outlook of Sainsbury's Customer Care Strategy
Sainsbury aims at building on and stretching the lead in food. By sharing customers' passion for healthy, safe, fresh and tasty food, Sainsbury's will continue to innovate and provide leadership in delivering quality products at fair prices. Sainsbury will continue to accelerate the development of non-food and service following the principles of quality and to provide a broader shopping experience for customers. Sainsbury commits to reach more customers through additional channels, and it commits to manage its business with integrity.
3.0 Development of Sainsbury's Customer Care Strategy
Strategy refers to a plan of action designed to achieve a particular goal. 1. Sainsbury should know who Sainsbury's customers are
Sainsbury should know that every member of the community is the potential customer. Sainsbury should reach the total community. Every citizens living around the stores can be Sainsbury's customers, as well as another companies can be the customer group of Sainsbury.
2. Sainsbury should know the needs of customers
Customers need to be understood. Sainsbury comes up with the strategy that it commits to provide quality food with fair prices, which makes consumers delight. Customers need to feel welcome. Sainsbury's staff serves every customer with a smiling face. Customers need to feel important. Once any customer has some recommendation or suggestion, he can directly approach to managers to point it out.
3. Sainsbury should know how to determine needs
Sainsbury puts out questionnaires to citizens to find what they really want to buy when shopping in the supermarket and then determine their goods. It is a way to analyse needs in terms of the development objectives of Sainsbury. Sainsbury's also set up suggestion box in its supermarkets to listen to customers' needs. Through different ways such as community meetings and feedback, Sainsbury determines customers' needs.
4. Sainsbury should response to needs
Sainsbury shows the real interest in the needs of special group, such as babies; they display their special tools and foods. Sainsbury ensures that every goods displayed on the shelves represent the real living needs for all customers. Sainsbury holds feedback meetings in order to response customers' needs, and it commits to handle and solve customers' complaints.
5. Sainsbury should give access to services
Sainsbury never limit the service to the boundaries of Sainsbury's store building. Sainsbury broadens its service range outside of the supermarkets and Sainsbury carries on deliver service. Sainsbury not only offers the regular stores for its customers, but also provides smaller supermarkets in urban locations as well as shopping online services.
6. Sainsbury should get stakeholders and senior managers' support Sainsbury establishes a committee to get cooperation and support from the stakeholders and senior managers. They give financial support to promote Sainsbury's operational environment as well as intelligence support to improve Sainsbury's operational situations. Both of their supports are necessary to the development of Sainsbury.

Last week, Walnut Class interviewed some of Parklands Local Residents who had memories of life during World War Two.
The children loved listening to all their stories, which ranged from seeing the soldiers returning from Dunkirk to VE Parties. The children felt that they had learnt so much more listening to real life experiences than they ever would just reading information from a book. We would like to thank all the local residents for their time in school.

The effect of uniform high-speed rotation on the simplest representation of a rotating blade is analyzed according to the linear theory of elasticity. The blade is modeled as a uniform prismatic beam of general cross section rotating about a principal section axis perpendicular to the centroidal axis. This quasi-elastostatic three-dimensional problem is reduced to a two-dimensional boundary value problem to which solutions for the amenable circular and elliptic cross sections are given. For sections not possessing two axes of cross-sectional symmetry, the theory predicts curvature of the blade center line.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The results suggest the Miami Dolphins are on the right track by trying to develop a stronger rushing game.
On the day they had their best rushing output of the season, the Dolphins took sole possession of first place in the AFC East.
Karim Abdul-Jabbar rushed for 127 yards and a touchdown and the Dolphins ended a three-game road losing streak with a 13-9 victory over Carolina on Sunday.
"Everybody likes to watch you throw the ball, but it's hard to argue with the effectiveness of running it," Miami guard Mark Dixon said after the Dolphins improved to 6-1 when they get at least 100 yards rushing. "It opens up the whole game for you when you can do the job on the ground."

Following nearly a week of record-setting warmth, Chicago is set for another meteorological milestone. For the first time since the National Weather Service began keeping records, the city will go the entire month of January and February
without snow on the ground. That's 146 years of record keeping. However, fairly sizeable storms are still possible in March and April. February ranks as one of the warmest on record, as well. Earlier in the month, Chicago set daily high temperature records on five days, and all of them broke the top 10 for warmest days ever for the month. READ MORE

Headlines were made recently by the discovery of a new species of ancient sea monster, which lived around 170 million years ago.
The giant killer reptile, resembling a dolphin spliced with a crocodile, was identified from fossils found on the Isle of Skye over half a century ago.
And the party which made the historic find included a student from the East Neuk.
Susan Grant, of Colinsburgh, was with a group which discovered the bones, led by an amateur enthusiast, Brian Shawcross – and years later, Susan helped geology experts to locate them.
The new species – Dearcmhara shawcrossi – was named in Mr Shawcross' honour.
Susan took up the story after hearing the bones had been presented to the Hunterian Museum.
"As a student at Easter 1959, I met up with some Cambridge geology students on a field trip to Arran," she told the Mail.
"Brian Shawcross and Bruce McDowell were coming back to Skye on a fossil hunt in late June and I was asked to join them with another girl, Sarah Robens. We went to Balearig Power Station and descended over 600 steps down to the beach.
"The power station man said when we needed to come back up, we were to ring a buzzer and he would hoist us up in a sort of bogie."
The weather had been very dry and the team was able to pick up fossils, ammonites, belemnites and mussel shells without any digging, recalled Susan, a former head teacher at Colinsburgh Primary School.
"Then Brian shouted as he'd found bones embedded in, I think, Oxford Clay," she added.
"He dug them out carefully and we made our way up in the bogie and back to our youth hostel, where we examined them and were, needless to say, very excited. When they returned south, the bones were gifted to the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge.
"Then, in the early 1990s, I heard a geology professor at Glasgow on the radio talking about fossil finds on Skye being all-important."
Susan wrote and told him the story, adding where she believed the bones were buried, giving him Brian's name and the fact he went to Sidney Sussex College in Cambridge.
"He must have pursued the information I gave him very successfully, tracked down Brian and the bones – for next I heard was last month on the radio that it is a completely new creature, they have incorporated 'shawcrossi' in the name and the bones are now in the Hunterian Museum in Glasgow," she said.
"I feel quite elated at the small part I feel I've played in all this!"

Each week I will think out loud about my process in determining my One-and-Done selection. If you are new to the One-and-Done format, it is like an NFL survivor league. You pick one golfer per week, but you can't use them again all year.
Let's start our search this week with who has played well at El Camaleon:
Charles Howell III (8-for-9 with seven top 20s)Kevin Streelman (5-for-5 with a T3 and T4)Pat Perez (5-for-6 with a T13, T16, and WIN)Brian Stuard (5-for-5 including TWO RUNNER-UPs)Scott Brown (5-for-6 three top 20s)Graeme Mcdowell (4-for-4 including a WIN)Brian Gay (8-for-8 with a T5 and WIN)Patton Kizzire (T58 and WIN)Emiliano Grillo (T10-T9)Si Woo Kim (T17-WD-THIRD)Gary Woodland (T28-RUNNER UP-T34)Chez Reavie (5-for-5 with a T4 and T14)Rickie Fowler (RUNNER UP)John Huh (5-for-6 with a WIN and four other top 30s)Oscar Fraustro (4-for-6 with a T9 and T13)
After history, we can look at baseline performance over the last few years. More recent results are weighted more heavily:
Jordan SpiethRickie FowlerMatt KucharTony FinauZach JohnsonGary WoodlandJoaquin NiemannEmiliano GrilloRyan MooreCharley HoffmanLuke ListJim FurykJ.B. HolmesCharles Howell IIIPat Perez
Looking for an overlap list we see a few names pop up: Charles Howell III, Pat Perez, Emiliano Grillo, Gary Woodland, and Rickie Fowler.
Fowler is probably the top overall play but I don't want to waste him in this weak-field event with a smaller purse. Pat Perez is showing some signs of life but his overall 2018 form is hard to trust. That leaves CH3, Grillo, or Woodland. CH3 has a boatload of top 20s here but four of those have landed in the 13th to 20th range. As for Woodland, I like his ability to pop higher up the board. He enters on the heels of five straight finishes of T12 or better. Woodland is my pick. Emiliano Grillo makes for a great pick, as well. His steady tee-to-green game fits well at Mayakoba and it's shown with top 10s in both appearances.
I will be giving out selections for one team for each DFS site, per week.
These lineups will be entered into a large-entry Guaranteed Prize Pool. That means we need to take a risk or two, in order to separate ourselves from the field. The idea is to provide you a list of names to consider. I would not recommend copying these teams, golfer for golfer. Duplicate teams are no fun and don't help anyone. FanDuel Picks:

What: Shares of Criteo SA (ADR) (NASDAQ:CRTO) were up 19.4% as of 11:00 a.m. ET after the performance marketing specialist released strong fourth-quarter 2015 results.
So what: Quarterly revenue excluding traffic acquisition costs (ex-TAC) climbed 51% year over year (43% at constant currency) to 146 million euros, driven by Criteo's addition of over 900 net clients during the quarter and a client retention rate of over 90%. That translated to 53% growth in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) to 49 million euros and 83% growth in adjusted net income to 43 million euros, or 0.66 euros per diluted share.
For perspective, Criteo's guidance provided last quarter called for lower revenue ex-TAC between 134 million euros and 139 million euros and adjusted EBTIDA of 39 million euros to 46 million euros. And analysts, on average, were expecting revenue of 138.2 million euros to result in adjusted earnings of 0.40 euros per diluted share.
CEO Eric Eichmann said:
2015 was another terrific year for us. We crossed the 10,000 client and €1 billion revenue marks while continuing to invest significantly in innovation. I am thrilled to take the helm at such an exciting time and look forward to our 2016 initiatives.
Now what: For the current quarter, Criteo expects revenue ex-TAC between $153 million and $158 million (or between 139 million euros and 144 million euros), and adjusted EBTIDA between $36 million and $41 million (or between 33 million euros and 37 million euros). Analysts' consensus estimates predicted revenue near the lower end of Criteo's guidance range.
For the full fiscal-year 2016, Criteo anticipates revenue ex-TAC to grow between 30% to 34% at constant currency, with adjusted EBITDA margin as a percentage of revenue increasing between 60 and 100 basis points over fiscal 2015. Analysts' consensus estimates called for reported revenue growth -- which are generally higher for Criteo in today's economic environment than constant currency growth expectations -- of 30% in fiscal 2016.
In the end, this was a cut-and-dried case of Criteo significantly outperforming both its own expectations and those of Wall Street, then offering a strong view of the coming year. With shares still down more than 20% year to date and trading at a reasonable (given its growth rates) 22.4 times this year's expected earnings, it's no surprise investors were willing to so aggressively bid up Criteo stock today.

Meta-analysis and genome-wide interpretation of genetic susceptibility to drug addiction
Meta-analysis and genome-wide interpretation of genetic susceptibility to drug addiction - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
BMC Genomics
, 12:508
Human and rodent genomics
BackgroundClassical genetic studies provide strong evidence for heritable contributions to susceptibility to developing dependence on addictive substances. Candidate gene and genome-wide association studies GWAS have sought genes, chromosomal regions and allelic variants likely to contribute to susceptibility to drug addiction.
ResultsHere, we performed a meta-analysis of addiction candidate gene association studies and GWAS to investigate possible functional mechanisms associated with addiction susceptibility. From meta-data retrieved from 212 publications on candidate gene association studies and 5 GWAS reports, we linked a total of 843 haplotypes to addiction susceptibility. We mapped the SNPs in these haplotypes to functional and regulatory elements in the genome and estimated the magnitude of the contributions of different molecular mechanisms to their effects on addiction susceptibility. In addition to SNPs in coding regions, these data suggest that haplotypes in gene regulatory regions may also contribute to addiction susceptibility. When we compared the lists of genes identified by association studies and those identified by molecular biological studies of drug-regulated genes, we observed significantly higher participation in the same gene interaction networks than expected by chance, despite little overlap between the two gene lists.
ConclusionsThese results appear to offer new insights into the genetic factors underlying drug addiction.

A beautiful book on an important topic, with echoes of the Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.
Subhi's world is Family Tent 4 in an Australian detention centre, crammed in with his mother and sister and dozens of others.
Terrible food, violence, fear and hopelessness are part of everyday life.
But Subhi has his great friend, Eli, and the stories his mother tells him. And he has the Night Sea, which delivers precious reminders of his father as he sleeps.
But change is coming to the only home Subhi has ever known.
On the hill outside the centre, in a house with a Lego letterbox, Jimmie lives with her father and older brother.
She is the keeper of the Bone Sparrow, a family relic given to her by her mother, before she died. It carries the souls of all her family, Jimmie's mother told her, and will keep her safe.
But these aren't safe times for either child in a world that is not designed to protect them.
For all the dark subject matter, this is a hopeful and touching story from the Melbourne-based writer.
Fraillon keeps a perfect balance between letting the story become lost in the horror of detention or allowing it to stray into unrealistic soppiness.
Subhi is a remarkable narrator and he holds our attention and our emotions throughout. It's an important and difficult topic, and Fraillon more than does it justice.
This book was published in July 2016. My review was first published in the Herald Sun's Weekend magazine.
