In addition, NFPA has raised the bar on voice communication capability, now requiring measurable, minimum Sound Transmission Index (STI) scores for both mechanical and electronic communications. MSA's new FireHawk M7XT Air Mask represents a true technological achievement in critical firefighter protection. As firefighters determined the safety requirements required to meet NFPA 1981 and 1982 2013-edition standards, MSA engineering teams began to design solutions.

Diamond Pattern
- Created
- 2016-04-19
- Description
- This is the basis for a fairly common diamond background texture. I needed it in higher resolution than the bitmap I had, so I traced it into svg. Now you can copy this basic unit into sheets as big as you need, you can scale it, you can change the colors to make it stick out more or less...... It's a lot more flexible than just getting a bitmap background.

The Lulu!
I teach.
Most of the time I crap.
I'm quite good at that though.
So why called Lulu?
It means 'clumsy', 'silly', 'are you freaking serious'
A noun that encompasses all adjectives that show the 'whattheheckness'
A noun, that fits me like a glove.
I am that someone, who
pretends real hard to be 18.
but FAILing miserably.
Am phobic towards driving with super horrible sense of road judgment.
Bold to do embarrassing stuff in public.
Crazy and unpredictable (students, 2011)
Always had my little toe stepped on.
Used to love the drama.
Now getting old, learning to treasure tranquility.
Bragging rights?
Super proud of my dimples.
That's why I smile a lot.
Mainly to show them off.
But also because I was named Felicia by my parents; a name derived from the Spanish word 'feliz'
Meaning: The Happy One
So I do try to live up to my name.
Right now I've been placed in Gua Musang, Kelantan.
With His guidance, I shall bloom where I have been planted.
Grace permalinkOctober 1, 2010 2:12 am

Please Note: This article is written for users of the following Microsoft Word versions: 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, and Word in Office 365. If you are using an earlier version (Word 2003 or earlier), this tip may not work for you. For a version of this tip written specifically for earlier versions of Word, click here: Managing the AutoCorrect List.
by Allen Wyatt
(last updated July 4, 2018)
Word's AutoCorrect feature can be either a big time-saver or a royal pain, depending on how you plan to use Word. In reality, the AutoCorrect feature uses a list of words that is shared by all applications in the Office suite, so changes you make to the AutoCorrect list in Word will also affect how you make changes in Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office tools.
So how do you manage the AutoCorrect list? The normal way is to follow these steps:
Figure 1. The AutoCorrect dialog box.
If you want to do a mass delete of all the AutoCorrect entries in your system, you can do so using a macro such as the following:
Sub DeleteAutoCorrectEntries() Dim acEntry As AutoCorrectEntry For Each acEntry In AutoCorrect.Entries acEntry.Delete Next acEntry End Sub
Note that this macro is no respecter of AutoCorrect entries: it deletes them all. Because of this, you may want to back up your AutoCorrect entries, as described next.
When you make changes to the AutoCorrect list, those changes are saved in files that have the ACL filename extension. Some Word users simply refer to these as "ACL files." (Wonder where they got that name?) The exact filename and location of the files can vary depending on your particular operating system setup and the version of Word/Office you are using. In general, though, if you want to backup your AutoCorrect entries, just look for files with this extension. If you want to move your AutoCorrect entries from one system to another, just copy the ACL file. (Make sure you only do this with like versions of Word. Not paying attention to the program version can have unintended consequences.) Specific instructions can be found in Microsoft Support; just search for "ACL AutoCorrect."
WordTips is your source for cost-effective Microsoft Word training. (Microsoft Word is the most popular word processing software in the world.) This tip (11595) applies to Microsoft Word 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, and Word in Office 365.

We don't want autocorrect options we've added in Word to be automatically added to Excel. We are using MS Office 2016. Is there a way to block them from being added to Excel?
2017-05-09 19:13:50
hi allen,
how would one go about migrating acl file from one version of office to another? ie., i have an MSO1033.ACL file that has multiple years of customized entries that i use as shorthand in composition, and i have now installed office 2016, and the ACL entries appear to be getting saved in a file named MSO0127.ACL
thanks in advance for your feedback ;-)

Derek Brown
Creation of a new AutoCorrect entry in Word 2013 has immediate effect in Word, but not in Outlook Express. Or is that just a glitch for me locally?
2016-11-18 08:59:51
I have eleven acl files: (mso0127.acl + six mso.acl files dated 10/30/15) (another mso0127.acl file with three mso.acl files dated 08/21/2009). I do not know if this corresponds to when I upgraded to Wind 10 or not.
Got a version of Word that uses the ribbon interface (Word 2007 or later)? This site is for you! If you use an earlier version of Word, visit our WordTips site focusing on the menu interface.

In Colorado we seem to wait forever for summer. Spring is bipolar, sunny and warm one day, snowy the next. We had four inches of snow on our deck May 12th.
When summer finally comes, I greedily plunge into gardening and savor morning coffee and evening wine on the deck. With the arrival of the autumnal equinox, the days are golden and beautiful, but I'm left wondering where the summer went.
Klaus and Hanghang found time in their busy schedules to come visit in June. Hanghang is now in her 4th year of med school at Dartmouth and Klaus has started law school at the University of South Carolina.
During their visit, we got together with Richard's brother Barry's family and got to see Elijah, the new family member, as well as Aunts Donna and Bette, visiting from Californina.
In July, Vanessa started her two month sojourn stateside. Her travels to New Orleans and Seattle still left time for hanging out in Colorado. We are grateful that she was eager to work and painted three rooms in our house.
In early July, my friend Val, from Richmond, Virginia, and I went camping in Rocky Mountain National Park.
Later in July, we met our friend Peggy in Pagosa Springs and enjoyed hiking and soaking in the hot springs.
Camping west of Buena Vista in August was beautiful.
We said good-bye to Vanessa in September, as she returns to Madrid for another year of teaching.
September is a great time for a roadtrip, and we visited relatives in Lincoln and Omaha and a dear friend in Iowa City. While in Lincoln, we took some time to see the sights.
It was fun seeing the cousins and their offspring
In Iowa, we had such fun with Mary Westbrook, including a visit to potter Clary Illian's studio in Ely, Iowa. A small toad was perched in a pitcher hanging from her fence.
Mary set a beautiful table for a high energy, fun birthday celebration. Notice the lilies in the frogs floral arrangements.
Richard enjoyed torturing Snickers, Mary's quirky kitty.
I bought a small face plate from Clary to add to my collection of her work.
I love my art from Iowa.
So now we're energized for fall, preparing for our two-week visit to Berlin in October and beginning the process of purging the house. I sold the piano on Craigslist
and have started organizing the photos to be scanned. Next April/May we'll finish emptying out the house for renters and head back to Berlin for a year of adventure in another country. Life is good.

What, then, is special about photography?
There is one clear difference between photography and painting. A photograph is always a photograph of something which actually exists. Even when photographs portray such nonentities as werewolves and Martians, they are nonetheless photographs of actual things: actors, stage sets, costumes. Paintings needn't picture actual things. A painting of Aphrodite, executed without the use of a model, depicts nothing real.
Walton, Transparent Pictures
|Portrait of a Young Woman with a Unicorn:
Raphael [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
|Portrait of the photographer as a roman statue
I'm struggling with this bit of the exercise. We are asked to give a 200 word reflective response to an extract from Transparent Pictures: On the Nature of Realism – by Kendall Walton and I can't help thinking it's errant nonsense from beginning to end. Clearly that's not a terribly rational response, so this is an attempt to help me get my head around just one bit of it – the quote above.One of the above images is clearly a painting – the other clearly a photograph (digitally altered – but most people would regard it as a photo I think). My problem is that I would maintain that they demonstrate exactly the opposite of Walton's assertion. I have never been a Roman statue – so it's a photo of something that doesn't exist. But..the statue exists, and I exist – so really it's just two photos of some things that exist displayed simultaneously to create an effect I saw in my imagination by using items stored in my memory.
But what if we apply the logic to the painting. The lady apparently existed. Pillars exist – Raphael didn't invent them – he'd seen pillars before and he's reproduced them here – either from memory or by looking at some similar pillars. Aha..the unicorn! What is a unicorn – it's a horse with a horn on its head. Horses exist.. etc. Horns exist..etc. So really this is a painting of some things that exist displayed simultaneously to create an effect Raphael saw in his imagination by using items stored in his memory.
Would the argument still hold if I had only used a single image – of myself or the statue? I think it would, as by selecting the timing and composition, depth of field and processing – a subset of the various realities available to me - I produced an image that I saw first in my imagination using information (items) stored in my memory.
For Walton's assertion to hold true the painting of Aphrodite would have to be executed by an artist who had never seen a woman, so that the end result would be completely imaginary – having no link to any previous experience of the artist. I think Escher would be more of a challenge to my suggestion, but even there the individual bits exist – at least in prototype, somewhere - and have simply been assembled in a manner which distorts single point perspective.
I may be missing something here but I'm not sure – certainly not in the digital medium it has become – that the claim that the key difference between painting and photography is the existence of the subject really holds water.

Detectives investigate teens' report of aggravated robbery
Bay City police talked to two 16-year-old males who were injured in a reported robbery Friday night, Jan. 26.
An officer was sent to Matagorda Regional Hospital Emergency Room in reference to a robbery.
Hospital security told the officer, when he arrived, that two juveniles were being seen for injuries that occurred during a robbery.
The officer met with the first victim, a 16-year-old male, who said he had been communicating with someone online to sell some items.
The teenager agreed to meet him in a parking lot in the 2100 Block of 7th Street, the officer was told.
The victim and a friend, also a 16-year-old male, walked to the parking lot to meet with the potential buyer.
The victims met with the suspects who were in a vehicle.
Once they took the items from the victims, the suspects tried to drive away.
One victim then tried to lean in the window and grab the items back.
When he did, a passenger assaulted the 16 year old, causing him to hit the car and fall on the cement.
The other victim also had been leaning in the window and he fell back.
During the get-away, the gray, four-door car struck the second victim, allegedly running over his legs, officers were told.
Both juveniles contacted their parents and were taken to the emergency room via private vehicle.
Both victims were treated and released from the hospital, reports show.
Detectives do have possible suspects and are investigating the case, police said.

When comparing Akamai vs Verisign, the Slant community recommends Akamai for most people. In the question"What are the best services to protect against DDoS attacks for startups?" Akamai is ranked 3rd while Verisign is ranked 4th. The most important reason people chose Akamai is:
Being one of the worlds largest CDNs, Akamai's large scale gives it a huge point of presence (PoP) to handle volumetric attacks.
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pro Large scale point of presence
Being one of the worlds largest CDNs, Akamai's large scale gives it a huge point of presence (PoP) to handle volumetric attacks.
Pro Deeply customizable rules
The Kona Site Defender rules are all customizable, with continuous updates from Akamai. This means you can see how they are protecting your site under the hood, and adjust them to your needs.
Pro Lots of dedicated bandwidth specifically for DDoS absorption
Through Prolexic's PLXedge, Akamai provides their customers with a total of 2.3 Tbps of dedicated DDoS absorption bandwidth.
Pro Rules for rate limiting
Akamai provides tools for rate controlling traffic segments based on their request rate behavior.
Pro Capped bursting fees
If a sudden attack sucks up a lot of bandwidth, the bandwidth costs are capped.
Pro Application layer protection
Akamai utilizes a proprietary web application firewall in order to provide scalable protection against application layer attacks.
Pro Thorough and customized set up process
Verisign uses a very thorough set up process that can take weeks. This allows them to customize the payees service to their site/s in order to provide the best protection possible.
Pro Signature analysis, dynamic profiling and filtering of the OSI stack are used to detect DDoS attacks
Verisign uses a multitude of tools simultaneously to detect security breaches and DDoS attacks. By using signature analysis and dynamic profiling along with filtering of the OSI stack (in order to detect DDoS attacks that are not coming from the network layer) Verisign can easily detect attacks to then alert the user as well as start mitigating the attack.
Con Expensive
Akami's services cost more than triple comparative packages from other security companies. At 13k a month for DDoS protection, there are many other choices out there that cost less for the same protection.
Con Slower security rule propagation
Because of Akamai's large CDN structure, it can take some time for security rules to propagate, making it harder to adjust security responses on the fly.
Verisign does not offer 24/7 live chat for customer service, only 24/7 telephone and e-mail support.

I loved Shatter Me... there were so many on this list that I didn't get around to reading like Anna Dressed in Blood. I really want to read that.ReplyDelete
@Cheree Me too, wasn't it all kinds of stunning? :-D I know what you mean - I saw plenty of other lists full of books I didn't get time to read either. Fingers crossed for this year! Anna Dressed in Blood was amazing, I hope you can read it soon - and that you enjoy it as much as I did!ReplyDelete
Thanks for stopping by! Happy New Year! :-D

Alex Riley, a senior ROTC cadet at Boston College, was in a poetry class the day the 2,000th US soldier was killed in Iraq. A classmate turned to him and asked: "Do you really want to do this? Do you really think it's the right thing?"
Another time, when ROTC cadets were manning a recruiting table during a club fair, two students concocted an impromptu protest sign by scribbling on a pizza box: "BC wants you to go home!" At Boston University, the ROTC office was vandalized last year. And when BU cadets held military exercises on Magazine Beach in Cambridge, a city official objected. At Northeastern, there have been occasional fliers or banners opposing the Iraq war.
It's not always easy being a student in the Reserve Officers Training Corps during an unpopular war, especially on liberal college campuses. Though some classmates thank the cadets and midshipmen for their service, others question or even challenge those in uniform.
Indeed, not all ROTC students themselves subscribe to the war in Iraq. They aren't allowed to criticize it while in uniform, but "as college kids, they can do what they want," says Captain Howard Trost, who leads the Navy contingent at BU.
Maura Leo of Belmont, an Army cadet at BC, says she doesn't "necessarily agree with the political aspects of the war." But as a nursing major, she wants to take care of soldiers. ROTC students must spend a month in training the summer after their junior year. Leo, 20, was assigned to Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, where she saw soldiers with amputated limbs and severe burns. That experience led her to change her plans, from pediatric nursing to emergency care.
Despite a controversial war that has claimed nearly 3,800 American lives, college students in the Boston area are still signing up for ROTC, which offers free tuition - and certain deployment. The enrollees will be commissioned as officers upon graduation and deployed within a year, many to Iraq or Afghanistan.
"The big thing on a lot of people's minds now is that they know going into ROTC that they're going to war," says Captain David Gowel, a training officer assigned by the Army to MIT. "When I started at West Point in 1998, I didn't know that." Like all the other Army faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Gowel has served in Iraq. He believes the war has resulted in a break-even deal for ROTC programs, with some students signing up out of patriotic fervor, and just as many declining because they don't want to end up in Iraq.
Despite the generous scholarship package, some parents have mixed feelings - of pride and fear - about ROTC. Matt Cisto, a Boston College senior from Oxford, Conn., faces deployment within a year of graduating. "The chances are pretty high that I'll go to Iraq. I feel like by the time it comes I'll be ready for it," says Cisto, an athletic-looking history major.
His mother says she is naturally concerned. "We told him he did not have to do this. We would have sent him to college," says Laurie Cisto. "I do understand there is peril they face, but it really takes a special kind of person to have the commitment and patriotism to want to do that."
Peter Sceusa, a ROTC student at BU, says his parents didn't encourage him to join - but "they weren't going to tell me no." His father is a retired New York City police officer. "My dad did not want me to be a police officer," says Sceusa, 20. "And then I turned around and joined the Army. I don't think that's what he had in mind."
Captain Trost at BU has noticed a shift in parents' attitudes. "It used to be that parents wanted their children to join," he says. "There's a lot more caution now. Our nation is more savvy about what war means. It means people dying, and it could be your son or daughter." His son is a ROTC sophomore at Washington State University.
In Boston, ROTC operates under a system in which officers are sent to the schools by their service branch to administer the program and teach courses such as military operations and tactical leadership. Many schools team together in a consortium. MIT, for example, also administers the program for six others: Tufts, Harvard, Wellesley, Endicott College in Beverly, Gordon College in Wenham, and Salem State, for a total enrollment of around 70. General David Petraeus' son, Stephen, is a junior in the ROTC program at MIT.
BU has agreements with Bentley, Bridgewater State, and Stonehill colleges, UMass-Boston, and the Massachusetts Maritime Academy; this year, 264 students are participating. Northeastern University serves as host battalion for about 120 students from BC, Suffolk University, Wentworth Institute of Technology, and a student or two from Berklee College of Music, Emmanuel College, Roxbury Community College, and Regis College.
In return for scholarships, ROTC students agree to spend eight years in the armed services, usually half in active duty, half in the reserves.
At Northeastern, Lieutenant Colonel John McClellan oversees the battalion. He has commissioned about 18 officers a year for the past 10 years. For students and parents, he says, the threat of being sent to a war zone looms large. "They understand what the lifestyle entails and what kind of risks they'll be exposed to after graduation."
The lifestyle on campus is pretty rigorous, too: it's basically a part-time job of about 20 hours a week, in addition to a full academic load. At BC, the 33 cadets wake up before dawn three days a week to report for physical training: push-ups and sit-ups, a half-hour run, then a series of stretches. On a recent day, they're finished by 8 a.m., and Riley, a senior from Pomfret, Conn., heads to the weight room, then the library, then class. At noon, he's already put in six hours while many of his friends are still asleep.
Riley rarely parties during the week. But the scholarship has saved his family $170,000 - something his father, Andrew, calls "an absolute joy." Moreover, he believes ROTC has been a boon for his son's personal growth. "How many college students are up till 3 playing video games and drinking? You can't do that if you have to get up the next morning and go running with a drill sergeant." If Alex Riley gets into medical school, as he hopes, his deployment will be postponed and he will become an Army doctor.
At BU, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Lee has been in charge of the Army contingent for three years. His first graduating class has been to Iraq, come home, and is preparing to go back. One of his students from Bridgewater State College was killed in Iraq last year.
On a recent night, he and other ROTC officials held a reception for the students. As Army, Air Force, and Navy officers introduced their faculty, young men and women in dress uniform listened attentively, hands clasped in front or behind. Lee told them most of his staff has served in Iraq, in special forces or flying helicopters. He introduced one faculty member by saying: "If anyone has any questions about what it feels like to be blown up. . . he's been in a vehicle hit by an IED [improvised explosive device]."
No one, it seemed, had any questions.

Our sofa is quite small and we needed somewhere to put our feet up when watching television.
I found how to make a simple one in the "Liberty book of home sewing". I did not use such expensive fabric : the black one used for the base and the liner pouf is from IKEA and the green one is from the local fabric store in Belfast.
The pouf is filled with polystyrene beads (it was kind of a nightmare to fill it : the beads were driping everywhere).

Wow - I didn't realise it was going to be that big! It's a gift for a young member of the family - I think he'll be thrilled as he's a tractor fanatic at 6 years old. A practical gift too. The towel has a smoother upper side so it'll be more comfortable to sit on at the beach. It seems to have a thick absorbent power so no usual skinny beach towel.

Damn! Who knew the guy from Blue's Clues was so hot? And he's recording an album with the Flaming Lips.
You know, I always thought he was cute in his own goofy way. I was hypnotized. I couldn't stop watching. But it's nice to know what's underneath that green shirt. Adorable.

7 Restaurants with Incredible Views
Why settle for dining at street level?
Truthfully, the only thing better than dining alfresco is enjoying a meal high above the fray. Here, seven restaurants that feature seriously stunning views.
Ser Steak + Spirits
Located on the 27th floor of the historic Hilton Anatole, this spot has an unobstructed view of the Dallas skyline. The modern twist on the traditional steakhouse is also quiet and spacious, making it ideal for date night or hosting out-of-town guests.
Ser Steak + Spirits, 2201 N. Stemmons Frwy., 27th Floor; 214-761-7479 or sersteak.com
Five Sixty
Reunion Tower's distinctive glowing ball is a prominent feature of the Dallas skyline and is home to Wolfgang Puck's Asian-style restaurant on the 50th floor. (The name Five Sixty refers to its location 560 feet above the ground.) It has floor-to-ceiling windows and the entire room revolves so diners can get a 360-degree view of the city.
Five Sixty, 300 Reunion Blvd., 50th Floor; 214-571-5784 or wolfgangpuck.com
Tower Club
Looking for a sophisticated rendezvous with an impressive selection of bourbon? Then become a member of the Tower Club, which is located on the 48th floor of Thanksgiving Tower in Downtown. The private business club has views of the Museum District, Klyde Warren Park and Uptown, making those monthly dues (starting at $105) well worth the price.
Tower Club, 1601 Elm St., 48th Floor; 214-220-0403 or clubcorp.com
Iconic and so Fort Worth, Reata is a Western-meets-fine-dining kind of brasserie. Grab a spot on the patio overlooking Sundance Square for happy hour and order a Clear Fork cherry vodka limeade and jalapeño elk sausage to snack on as the sun goes down.
Reata, 310 Houston St.; Ft. Worth; 817-336-1009 or reata.net
Park Cities Club
A true hidden gem, the restaurant is located on the 17th floor of the Sherry Lane Place office building.Another members-only spot, it's known for doting on its clientele (and for its classic surf-and-turf entrees). The space overlooks Highland Park, University Park and Preston Hollow, and you can even see Downtown and the AAC at Victory Park.
Park Cities Club, 5956 Sherry Lane, 17th Floor; 214-373-0756 or parkcityclub.net
HG Sply Co.
In Lower Greenville, HG Sply Co.'s rooftop has a Paleo-centric menu and boundless views of Downtown. Insider tip: The rooftop gets busy at sundown, so make plans to arrive early and grab great seats by the patio's edge.
HG Sply Co.; 2008 Greenville Ave.; 469-334-0896 or hgsplyco.com
This place is known for its Japanese cuisine (you must order the soba noodles), but the rooftop patio is also worth a visit. You'll see One Arts Plaza on one side and Downtown and Uptown on the others. We suggest making a reservation for dinner and then staying for cocktails on said patio.
Tei-An, 1722 Routh St., #110; 214-220-2828 or tei-an.com

Welcome to my blog!
I'm not sure if this should be directed at you or me, as this is my first blog and I don't really know what I'm doing so bear with me. I'm in my final year of college so it's probably not the best time to be starting this but if you're going to procrastinate you may as well do something semi-productive right?? I'm hoping to focus on fashion mainly in the blog, I love high street fashion and in my eyes there's nothing more satisfying then a good bargain! My favourite shops are H&M, River Island, Bershka, TopShop and, of course, Penneys (I have very limited funds at the moment). I also really love quirky vintage shops. It can be really pleasant to stroll around Temple Bar and wander into the variety of boutiques there, you never know what you might find. Oh and charity shops are fab!
I'll also be talking a bit about music events that I might be at, or just artists that I'm enjoying at the time.
Anyway, I'm going to try and post as much as possible and hopefully be inspired by those around me and things I see out and about. Feel free to give feedback at any time!
