I have tried to reply to this thread several times. I just can't find the right words. So here goes....
Yes, you are being unreasonable. No, your reasons (apart from infection risk, which is easily managed) are not valid. Your FIL is going to die. You will never get this time with him, or as a family unit, again. End of life is scary, sad and very upsetting for most people. Having your DD visit must brighten up his day, and not only make him happy, but your DH and MIL too. If you can't suck it up and go along, let your DH take your DD without you.
If you were in your DH's position, and had a dying parent, would you be making excuses for them to not see or spend time with your DD?
If you deny your DH taking your DD, are you prepared for the fallout from that? How important is it to your DH that your DD spend time with his father? Grief is different for everyone....
My own Mum is currently undergoing treatment for lung cancer, and my MIL has MS. I would never deny my children spending time with either. The relationship between a grandparent and grandchild is important, even if the grandparent is incapacitated. Giving up a little of my family time makes such a big difference to the days of two women who are doing it tough.

Thanks everyone for replying, I know this is an emotive subject and was prepared for a mix of opinions. Thanks for those of you who actually took the time to come up with some useful suggestions and just not flame me for how I am feeling.
I want to clarify a few things to try and show I am not a heartless cow as some of you are clearly of the opinion that I am.
We have been told by specialists that although they are no longer treating (which they just did with antibiotics) that he may well live for many years to come. The main reason he has gone into a nursing home is because MIL can't manage to move him around on his own and his mobility has decreased since spending that much time in hospital.
DH goes every other night (I have tried to get him to go every night but think it may increase to this once/if he starts to go downhill). Of course this impacts on our family time but I don't care, I would rather he spend time with his dad while he is still here, I know from my own experience that we are lucky to have that time. DH words are 'we have to carry on living our life' so I am trying to be guided by him in what he wants to do.
I didn't actually say we don't have time to go because of work and a house, I said we don't have time to go all the time. DH says this to me and I think its because we have so many other things to get done, such as shopping, swimming lessons, cleaning, washing, cooking etc, at the weekend. you know what its like. But of course we make the time to go visit, just not 24/7 at the weekends, which I don't think anyone was suggesting anyway. Unfortunately going in the week as a family isn't an option for us as by the time we get home and feed and bath DD its time for her bed.
I have been going 1-2 times a week myself, mainly at the weekends, my OP was more about germs/illness due to DD which although may be unfounded, were a real worry for me at my time of posting. Thanks for the reassurance here.
We are going to take DD at the weekend and will be using the tips given, thanks so much again for them. I have not at any time tried to deny DD or DH seeing FIL and I resent that implication. It has mainly been my insistence that we take DD to see him when he was in the hospital, not my DH. His frustration has been at the situation as a whole and worries about dirt/germs as much as I do!
I was a bit concerned how I would be perceived by writing my OP but I guess when you post on a forum you are exposing yourself to a variety of views. Thanks again to everyone who took the time to reply and I'm so sorry to those of you who have lost a family member. I love and care deeply for my DH and his family and unbeknown to him there have been times I have sat here when DD has been in bed and he has been at the hospital and cried, with sadness for my FIL, DH, DD, MIL, BIL and myself, so please don't think I am a heartless person, I truly am not.
Thank you xx

I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)

The "spam" classification is either being added by your email provider's spam filtering service, or by your security software's email scanner.For example, my Norton Internet Security email scanner is integrated into Microsoft Outlook. If a message is classified as spam incorrectly, I can click a button in Outlook's toolbar called "This is not spam", then a dialog-box opens where I can tick the option "always trust messages from this email address". The message is then moved to my Inbox, with the "Spam" word removed.Now any new messages in future from that email address will not be marked as spam.However, any messages I send to myself are never classified as spam anyway, so I don't know what's happening in your case.3 more replies

You have found one
I mistyped a url earlier (I believe i typed 'radiosahck' instead of radioshack) and was redirected to a strange website (something about internet surveys I believe) I closed it right away and did a quick scan with malwarebytes to make sure nothing was wrong, and it came up empty. I'm probably being a bit paranoid here, but is this anything to really worry about?
Redirects can be something to worry about, as you have no idea what content is being hosted on the re-direct. Most popular anti virus programs, have real-time scanning, where it's constantly scanning your computer, and as soon as you're redirected to a bad website, it will block any content that's harmful to your computer. I use Eset and it does this.1 more replies
Microsoft made a typo in their WinSAT application, How can we let them know about it?
Hi Steven,
You can try contacting them by following the link below. Whether or not you will get a response I cannot say. I have managed to locate the error in the 'WinSAT.exe' file (notice the space between the letters), and you can edit it to replace the erroneous 'o' with an 'i', however by doing so you will probably cause it to fail an SFC scan. In my opinion, it is such a minor error that it is probably best left ignored.
I only have 1 password for all my docs but I have 4 of them which I can't open. Propably a typo when I saved these docs.

So I was browsing around in Windows Defender (Windows Settings > Update & Security > Windows Defender > Open Windows Defender Security Center > Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings, then scroll down to Controlled folder access.)
The sentence "Protect your files and folders from unauthorized changed by unfriendly applications" has a typo in it.
(Refer to the attached picture)
? The word "changed" has a typo in it and should be the word "changes" (with an 's' instead of a 'd'), or
? There is at least one missing word in between the words "unauthorized" & "changed"
Somebody should inform Microsoft about this typo.
But Also: I noticed that this is a new option, since the last time I was browsing around in there. What does this option exactly do? It was originally off, but I turned it On. Yet I must say that I have seen a few messages pop up in the right corner of the screen, stating that Windows Defender blocked some programs from making changes. One of them showed explorer.exe from modifying the Favorites folder without me doing anything with Favorites. Exactly what does this option do? Is it kind of like some sort of strict "Firewall"? Because if so, then I like that.

Blocks access to your files and documents by unknown apps (malware/ransomware). It's off by default because not all 'good' apps are in it's 'trusted' list. It takes a bit of fiddling to get all your apps to work after you turn it on.

Hello everyone,
I am experiencing the red typo lines when there are no typos. This happens on occasion when I'm typing emails and posting or responding to forums. It seems to occur when there is an actually typo and I correct the error. After that the entire post/email from that point on will have the red typo lines.
For example it is happening now... I'll try to post a pic for a better understanding.
Has anyone experience this as well and most importantly does anyone know of a solutions to this?

After entering this typo I almost immediately that my connection was unstable especially on Linux and yesterday evening when I logged back into my router the DNS settings were set to there defaults.

Here's what I entered

I'm really feeling uneasy and stressed about this, any advice?
Why does stuff like this happen whenever your in poor health or any other of life's trials and complications?
Two things you might check:
1. In Windows, do your Network Properties have a DNS Server entry(s) that point(s) to your router (probably 192.168.1.1 or close) or do they point to the published OpenDNS IP addresses? Easy check: From an Elevated Command Prompt: ipconfig /all
2. After you corrected the DNS router entries, did you have the router do a cold reboot?
I believe you shouldn't overly stress yourself over this if you didn't make any financial transactions. But new passwords could be needed.
I'm just setting up a new computer, and not used to the keyboard. When I was installing the operating system I was asked for a User name. Before I had a chance to do anything it had accepted the name GREU and moved on to the next step. No back button! Bloody i7's, so fast!
I've tried doing a search in regedit for GREU, changed it in one place, but its still showing up all over. Is there a complete fix to this or should I resign myself to being known as Greu for the next few years?

When i type things like google.con instead of .com, i am redirected to a host of different search sites, including searchathand.com, and daplaces.com. I am pretty sure i must be infected with something, but i have ran several online and offline spyware and malware scanners and nothing seems to find a problem.
I am running Firefox version 188.8.131.52, but the problem also occurs in IE as well.
Advise please!
Edit: I seem to have found what i think is the culprit for this...but this leads to another problem.

Memory corruption caused by an unknown driver. Please run memtest and driver verifier.
Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program.
Boot from the CD, and leave it running for at least 5 or 6 passes.
Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot.
Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.

Hello, is some one know where finding free Helvetica and Time family typo ?
thank Kidkodak 57
Helvetica Fonts - DownloadFontsFree.Net
Regarding "Time family", you need to be more specific.
Is there a way to tell Microsoft Word to "guess" what I mean every time I make a typo? For example, I type "tsanding," and instead of changing it to "standing," it underlines it red. I know I can then right-click it, and select AutoCorrect > standing, so that, from now on, if the same exact typo arises in the future, in which I accidentally type "tsanding," it'll change it to "standing." I've thus far collected *hundreds* of specific typo corrections in this way. But that's very time-consuming, and is only a weak attempt at preventing typos I may be likely to make in the future (based on the fact that I made the exact typo at least once before). Is there any way to establish that I want Microsoft Word to go ahead and correct every single "underlined red" occurrence from now on, based on its best guess as to what I meant? (except in cases where the typo was so bad that it has no guess at all) That way, when it corrects something I *didn't* want corrected, I can then go back and add what I wanted to its dictionary, to tell it not to consider that word an accident from then on.
Found this in the Word Help files. On the Tools menu, click AutoCorrect Options. In the Replace box, type a word or phrase that you often mistype or misspell ? for example, type usualy. In the With box, type the correct spelling of the word ? for example, type usually. Click Add. Is this what you're talking about?2 more replies
So I decided to buy Windows 7 from eBay. I didn't trust the people selling product keys only, so I purchased a brand new retail package. When I shop on eBay, I always look for sellers that are really close to me so shipping is fast. So I found a seller, said to be located in Maryland (which is two states away from me), with a great price and great feedback for his W7 sells. I was pissed because when the guy sent me the tracking number, I found out that the item was coming from Beijing, China, not Maryland! But I figured, well at least he shipped it.
THEN, I get an email from eBay saying the listing for the item I just purchased because the copyright holder reported that the item may be a counterfeit. At first I was pissed at eBay because now I had to record of the transaction in my eBay account and could not contact the seller directly from within the item invoice, since eBay deleted. Plus, he had several other sells of this same item, all with positive feedback of the W7 package, and eBay did not remove the listings for them. So I was like, why me? Luckily, I had his email from paypal and contacted him. He assured me that he is the legal owner of the item and that he sent proof to eBay saying so. Still never got my records back.
Anyway, this prompted me to search counterfeit Windows 7 retail packages. I found some interesting info, but my package doesn't fit any of the counterfeit profiles Microsoft says to look out for. The top hologram is built onto the ... Read more

It's fake, that's pretty obvious. The hologram thing is most likely a sticker on top of the actual disc surface - you can use a fingernail or razor blade at the very edge and lift it up a bit, that's 100% proof. The part numbers don't seem to match up with the actual Windows 7 Ultimate part number, and it just has a fake quality all the way around.
If you contact Microsoft, show them the pics, explain where you bought it from and your situation, there is a small - small but it exists - chance they'll provide you with a key just for making the report and identifying the seller you got it from.
No guarantees, but at the moment you're better off reporting it to them and going from there. Sure can't hurt to let them know, either way.
I'd report it, personally, without even really thinking about it. It just SCREAMS fake.

I've got this computer given to me from a guy I know because he didn't want to do anything with it. He couldn't get any OS to install on it. I took it apart, hooked up motherboard, power, and cd-rom and installed Linspire (4.5.499) with no problems.
Anyway, I plan on putting this rig in my Jeep (I'll make a modified case). I am going to use it as a 2nd (more interactive) media hub (I've got a music/dvd player with screens). I want this PC to control a set of LED's to display custom messages on the back of my truck (that's the cool part).
Now, to my questions : I know next to nothing about doing my own circuitry (circuitboard designs/resistors/anode,cathode/power/ground). The led display I plan on making will be 5 x 20 (or so).
What type of LEDs (and or other hardware) would I need to make this circuit?
How can I connect this display to my computer?
How would I be able to control it? (I don't have a problem with coding - just not sure what programs I would need)
I guess that's about the end of it. I posted this in hardware because this requires a lot of hardware... and ... well - didn't see a better place to post. Thanks for all replies.

Just bought a disk in supermarket, Deus Ex Human Revolution. Looks good, never played it so thought give it a go. I installed it, well, I thought I had, all I have is an icon called steam and nothing else. There is nothing to point me to the game on the disk, no setup other than this steam!!
What the hell is going on before I return disc to store.
By the looks of it (1), Deus Ex: HR is a Steamworks (2) game - i.e. it requires Steam to be able to run (for DRM purposes). Presumably you can get playing if you fire up Steam, create an account, login and launch?
I haven't bought a boxed PC game for ages, but it looks as though this is the case.

We have a problem when we receive emails from the organiser of a club that we belong to. She sends out information about events, using BT Yahoo. What we receive is an email with nothing in the FROM, TO & SUBJECT columns, and the email itself is very hard to decipher. We can see from "Message Source" under "Properties" that there is a lot of control information missing. It starts off with part of the message, usually leaves out the first few lines, then there are loads of codes, usually with bits of the rest of the message in between the codes. Other details are:When she sends us the information personally, just to us and not as part of a group, no problemNobody else in the group except us has reported this problemWe've never had this problem from anyone elseShe uses Windows ME, and BT Yahoo for emails (not Outlook Express)The BT Yahoo account that she uses only contains the people in the club, so there is no group, everyone in the account's address book is on the email circulation list.Her ISP is BTInternet, ours is now Pipex (broadband) (used to be Freeserve, dial-up), same problem experienced with both our ISPsThis has us stumped.

Hello VentAcruZ,
Normally this is caused by a 3rd party application that isn't handling its "refresh" function very well. There's a quick way to see if a third party application is causing it:
Go to Start > Search.
Type "msconfig" > hit ENTER.
Go to Startup-tab > Disable all items.
Apply > Reboot.
When it's rebooted, try and see again if it does the same thing.
If it's gone, it's one of those 3rd party applications doing it, and finding out which one could be easy,and it could take time.
Normally it's caused by "Dock applications" or applications monitoring other applications or hardware. Basicly any application with an extra "dock bar" or extra "gui" that you can have visible. Otherwise you'll have to manually reactivate one process at a time (From the MSCONFIG > STARTUP view) and see which one is causing it.
If it doesn't help by disabling all 3rd party startup applications, let us know!

Hi anieve
First advice I would give you is NEVER click on a questionable E-Mail. Delete them. Make sure your Anti-Virus software is up to date and run it to see if you were infected but I believe it would have picked it up when you tried to open it.

i know there isnt any issues with the drive, or any reason for it to need any other drivers as evidenced by the fact i used it to boot, and am using it with my linux installation at the moment.
ive done some poking around at other forums and found a few suggestions that i dont know how to put into practice
attached is a description of my hardware courtesy "hardware lister"
Reading through your system specs, I came across:
description: DVD-RAM writer
product: CDDVDW TS-H653R
vendor: TSSTcorp
Googling TSSTcorp, I found that it relates to Toshiba
One link is http://www.softwaredriverdownload.com/category/companies/tsstcorp
Googling CDDVDW TS-H653R, I came across lots of links for this device and drivers.
I suggest that you Google both Vendor and Product (as per above) and I think you will be able to track down the correct Vista driver (even though your CD/DVD still works, MS doesn't think so).
If you still can't solve your dilemma, come back here and I am sure that a proper Hardware Geek will be able to help.

When creating a topic, create a good descriptive title that includes your model. The subject is the first thing another users see's when attempting to help, and if it is generic (i.e. "Windows 10 won't work") they may not take the time to read the rest of your content.
A subject like; "Touchpad stopped working on S7-392 after Win10 update" gives users a lot of information quickly, and if there is a larger issues, other S7-392 users will find your content and help highlight the scope of the issue.

When I view the main InBox screen in Outlook (not Express), I see only the sender and the date for each mail.
How do I make Outlook display the subject there also.
Right click in the header of any column
Select "Customise current view"
Add or subtract the fields as required.
For some reason the input box is missing from any new email I send which means I am sending emails with no subject which I don't like to do.Incoming messages show the subject in column view but not when I open the email.This has only started recently, last week I was able to enter a subject with no problem
Did you try View...Message Header?Turning off the Message header will hide the Subject Line in all messages in your InBox.However, turning it off in a e-mail you are composing usually only impacts that email.

Freaky Awesome
Another day, another review for our fans. Today, I couldn't be happier not only that we have the opportunity to review it but also that we are going to present why this title is as cool as it sounds! But what is this game? Is it worth the hype? Should you pick it up when available? Stick around and you will find out now. Let's start by mentioning a few things about the game itself.
Freaky Awesome is a hectic action rogue-lite where you have to fight your way out of an old factory, full of mutated monsters and traps; the general layout of the factory and its rooms are procedurally generated. Every enemy leaves behind a poodle of mutagen that can heal you, but also mutates you eventually – even if you are in the middle of a fight! In order to survive, you will need to adapt quickly to the powers and specific mechanics of every mutation. Tearing off your head to throw it at an enemy? Sure! Laying eggs and seeing tiny copies of you hatching and fighting for you? Why not! And on top of that, you can use objects in combat and develop your character to unlock new powerful skills, as well as play in co-op with up to 4 players!
To begin with, the very first aspect that really impressed me is the graphics and in general the amazing artwork. They are really sharp and create an amazing atmosphere for even the most demanding players. It reminds me of games like Binding Of Isaac which are titles I really love. Furthermore, I loved the mutation system and the way you change during each dungeon and each fight. I should also not forget to mention that the title is also randomly generated and it changes every successful run with new unlocked locations and enemies, bigger levels, stronger bosses and new mechanics
This element adds great replayability to the title. I loved also the fact that you can keep your unlocks and everything you do even after death. As far as the negative aspects are concerned, the main issue of the game is that the mutation unlocks are really slow. One of the reasons games like binding of Isaac were so successful was because you could get many items and unlocks at a quick pace and there was an increase difficulty.
To sum up, the game is really amazing despite the negative aspects and is definitely worth picking it up. The game is really enjoyable and kept me busy for hours. More updates would definitely improve it in more and help it unlock its true potentials!

Regardless of who you are, where you live, which religion you practice or how
much money you have, the teachings of the Buddha should be known.
Much like Oprah, Buddha (before he became the Buddha) had everything but what
he did not have is what he really wanted. Oprah obviously wants to lose
her excess weight and even her billions of dollars does not seem to be helping
Learning the teachings of the Buddha and the simple concept of mindfulness is
one of the top 5 ways for Oprah Winfrey to lose weight.
For over 10 years Art Smith has been the "personal chef" for Oprah Winfrey.
It is a long time to maintain a professional relationship and if Oprah wants to
lose weight, a change is necessary.
While you cannot put 100% of the blame on the chef, there is no doubt Oprah
would benefit from a change in the type of chef who prepares her food.
There are many different types of personal chefs and Oprah needs a specialist
in making healthy, clean food which is low in calories more importantly than
high on taste.
Even if Art Smith is the right chef for the job, professional relationships
usually become stagnant after a while and Oprah should take the initiative and
find someone who more suits her goals.
You may have seen Oprah's latest workouts in your favorite issue of Fitness &
Fiction magazine or seen her latest interview with her trainer on her show but
her past experience has obviously not helped in the long run.
The problem with any personal trainer who works with Oprah is her celebrity.
Celebrity personal trainers most likely specialize in treating, rather than
training celebrities to get results.
This makes sense because a paycheck is what puts money on the table and pays
The best help for Oprah in her quest to lose her excess weight is to hire a
personal trainer who is not used to training celebrities. A personal
trainer who is able to treat her like one of the millions of average people in
the US trying to lose weight.
Oprah needs a personal trainer who is hard on her and does not put up with
any super-rich celebrity excuses. Oprah needs a trainer who is a hardcore
down to the bone fitness freak.
At her peak Oprah weighed over 200 pounds. While it may almost be the most
difficult to do, Oprah needed to get back to her roots (no pun intended).
If Oprah really wants to lose weight and keep it off, 5-star candlelight
dinners with Stedman should become a thing of the past.
Oprah should analyze her diet and activities and think about what would be
different if she were the same person struggling to get an acting job years ago.
As she has proven before, it is not impossible to take some time off and head to a fitness
retreat or simply take a vacation to dedicate to her own health and physical
fitness while avoiding expensive gourmet calories.
Even the casual viewer of the Oprah Winfrey show sees dozens if not hundreds
of advertisements for the latest "miracle," or "secret" breakthrough in dietary
supplements or diets.
And that is if the subject of the show does not involve the subject.
Oprah is most likely bombarded with hundreds of these products a day trying to
get her endorsement.
Oprah should take the same approach that everyone else should which is to
realize that the reason why there are so many "miracle" weight loss type
supplement is because none of them really work for the long term.
The Top way for Oprah Winfrey to lose weight is to never again even think
about another diet supplement, or fad diet and get back to basics which is a
physically active lifestyle and healthy nutrition.

A lot of reading
One of the benefits of being on two Thanksgiving weekend flights is that I
get a LOT of time to read the nifty shiny new travel books. I had the LP
guide to Russia and China delivered to my parents' house to save a few
bucks, and pretty much read them cover to cover over the weekend. Anyhow,
after the research, it looks like this would be a fantastic general plan,
if given unlimited time and unlimited budget:
St. Petersburg
Suzdal via Vladimir
Nizhny Novgorod
Omsk (?)
Irkutsk and Lake Baikal
Ulan Ude
Ulan Baatur
Beijing and The Great Wall
Chendgu and Area (incl. Leshan overnight?)
Lhasa (by air from Chengdu)
Hong Kong
Tokyo and area
This pretty much leaves us with no longer than 36 or so hours on the train
in any one stint, which is pretty different than expected. But after
reading, there are lot of plusses to stopping in these areas!
So, Geoff, shall we let the train schedules help us figure it out?
And we're off!
There will definitely more to come, folks, so don't get antsy that there's
not a lot here yet. But the first official hurdles have been covered (at
least for me):
- Leave of absence (actually, it's now an unpaid vacation; effectively
the same thing, but semantically different, business-wise)
- Basic plan of attack
- Airline tickets to Russia (thanks to Amy's hard work!)
- A lot of understanding from Alex, without which I probably wouldn't be
- This website!
Okay, yes, maybe that last one is stretching it a bit, but we really do
need this. When we're on the road, we want people to be able to track our
movements. Certainly, if for no other reason than we probably won't be
able to phone home from some of the places we're going.
The train's in motion now! Just wait to see what else comes next!

In the past, employees used to stay at the same company for longer periods. The reward for their services was always in the form of a carriage clock or a watch, in most cases, and these awards were a little more popular than they are these days. Nowadays, people just move around numerous businesses working for shorter time spans. This fact, by itself, proves that service awards are necessary for any company that wants to encourage its employees to remain loyal while reducing staff turnover at the same time.
Increase Employee Loyalty with Service Awards
Gone are the days when companies used to reward their loyal employees with carriage clocks or wristwatches. If you want to give your employee a service award in this time and era, make sure that you demonstrate true appreciation with a gift that's highly sought after or perceived to be of high value. It's even hard to imagine how the classic carriage clock was expected to motivate the employee to work harder and continue serving the company.
Monetary rewards can seem appropriate but money is easily spent and the people forget it pretty fast. It will be absorbed into daily expenditure pretty fast and the feeling of winning will disappear with it. An ideal reward would be a luxury item, something someone would like to buy for themselves but can't afford. A tangible item that the employee can look and touch will impart a positive feeling for a long time. Grading the awards based on the length of service can be a good idea to encourage employees to stay for longer periods.
Acknowledge Service
Employers should think of years of service awards as a way of acknowledging the length of time an employee has served the business. It's a win for the company too. During these awards, employees, and employers alike will take a trip down the memory lane as a symbol of organizational memory and continuity. If a long service award is given publicly, people can tell company stories, helping new employees learn the history of their employer.
Increase Employee Retention
Many business owners agree that rewarding your staff is the way to run a desirable and successful business. Others would say that rewarding other achievements that deserve recognition rather than long service make more sense, and they wouldn't be wrong either. It's true that there are other achievements that deserve recognition but long service should be one of them too. High staff retention rate ranks among the top agendas on the management list.
It's a good indicator of satisfaction and staff morale. High levels of staff turnover are bad for business. They have a negative effect on the employees and the workplace itself and no organization wants that. There is no better way to emphasize the importance of service awards than their potential to reduce staff turnover. An organization that rewards its employees and does it will is an organization worth working for.
Recognize Top Performers Who Don't Get Top Bonus
Service awards are a good way of recognizing top performers who don't make the cut for other bonuses. For such employees, a service award is another way of telling them to thank you for your terrific performance and we appreciate your continued service. Not everyone can bag the top spot, and it doesn't mean that other people are not working as hard.
Employee recognition is important to the success of a company mostly because they increase staff loyalty and retention thus reducing employee turnover. By presenting your employees with service awards, they generally become more positive about working for your company. They contribute towards the creation of positive culture in your workplace so rewarding them makes complete sense.

On the second friday of each month, we like to feature LGBT Literature of the past. This week Ulysses talks to use about Joseph Hansen's Brandstetter Mysteries. There is also a giveaway, so stay tuned for that.
Prism Past
Joseph Hansen, the Brandstetter Mysteries
Joseph Hansen is without question the Raymond Chandler of gay literature, and his dozen Brandstetter mysteries were formative literature in my gay youth. Hansen published the first mystery featuring Dave Brandstetter, Fadeout, in 1970. The last of the series was Country of Old Men, published in 1991.
I discovered Dave Brandstetter in 1982, when I was 27. In that year I read all six of the novels published up to that date, and continued to follow each new volume as it appeared. I always went into the Oscar Wilde book store in Greenwich Village to pick up the latest volume.
It's hard to fathom the impact in the gay world that a character like Dave Brandstetter had in 1970. Here was a big masculine guy. But classy, like James Bond without the British effeteness. Brandstetter was a high-level insurance investigator in Los Angeles. He'd fought in World War II. He had a rich father who was frequently married, amiable but distant. Brandstetter drove a Jaguar and lived in a glamorous (although not pretentious) house high up in one of the fashionable LA canyons. And he was gay, openly and comfortably.
He was also damaged goods. When the series begins, Dave is depressed and lonely, struggling to get over the death of his longtime lover, Rod Fleming. A successful decorator, Rod was in every way the opposite of Dave; slender, younger, effeminate—the archetypal LA style queen. But, oddly enough, Rod was June to his Ward, and his death from cancer has left Dave gutted. The only reason he hasn't killed himself is because of the happy memories he has of their twenty years together. We only meet Rod in flashbacks, but his role in Dave's life is unquestioned.
This, for a young gay man in a five-year relationship, was the stunning thing about Dave Brandstetter. He was a smart, suit-wearing middle-aged professional, and he'd lived with, and loved another man for twenty years—in 1967! He was proof to me and my lover (now husband) that what we wanted was possible. And he was cool without being a super hero.
Of course, much of this must have been only semi-conscious on my part. I loved these books because Hansen was a wonderful writer in the detective tradition. All of the things I love about the best of the m/m writers today were in place in Hansen's books: strong characters, beautifully crafted writing, vivid sense of place. His books, none of them very long, were compelling page-turners, just as a good detective story needs to be.
To make it better, the reader got to see the grieving Brandstetter evolve. We watched him begin to heal, sometimes aided by one or another of his father's ex-wives, or other folks who knew him as part of a couple and understand what he's going through. Even more significantly, as the series progresses, Brandstetter falls in love again, this time with a much younger black television reporter named Cecil Harris. In the final books of the series, Dave and Cecil become a team, much as he and Rod Fleming had been a team—mismatched but perfectly suited to each other.
For all the hard-boiled detective stories, ultimately these books were about love and its power to shape the human soul. Dave Brandstetter is who he is because of the love of his life, and his ethos as a detective has been shaped by that love. He is no banner waver, no marcher in parades, but he is relentless in his quest for justice.
In the last book, when AIDS has appeared and wreaked its havoc in the gay community, Cecil says to Dave: "But with so many dying, we better love each other for real, and all we can –we're so lucky to have the chance." This underlying message infuses all these books with a power that meant the world to me when I was young. As I approach sixty, they mean even more, because they shaped my view of the gay world.
Joseph Hansen himself was an interesting character. He was a gay man who married a lesbian and lived with her for many years, having a child with her. Today, I guess I'd say they were both bisexuals who fell in love with someone of the opposite sex—and yet both of them claimed their gay selves. This sets Hansen outside the mainstream, and yet, to me, makes him a figure to be admired and even revered. He lived a life of personal integrity and succeeded, as a man and a writer, long before most of us imagined it was possible.
All of the Brandstetter books are now available in print and on Kindle. Read them.

From the Publisher:
Joseph Hansen's highly successful mystery series which kicked off in 1970 with the publication of "Fadeout", featured one of the genre's first openly homosexual investigators, Dave Brandstetter. Like other fictional sleuths, such as Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe or Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer, Hansen's middle-aged protagonist is tough, smart and self-assured. 'My joke,' Hansen said, 'was to take the true hard-boiled character in the American fiction tradition and make him homosexual. He was going to be a nice man, a good man, and he was doing to do his job well.' Hansen's series, which continued until 1991 with "A Country Of Old Men", was set in an evocative 70's and 80's Southern California, particularly Los Angeles, for which he received high praise. "The LA Times" said Hansen had presented Brandstetter's 'loves, jealousies and betrayals with both candour and discretion…and never-exploitive honesty.' Throughout the course of the series Brandstetter ages physically and grows emotionally as he comes to terms with the turmoil of his personal relationships. Now all 12 Dave Brandstetter novels are brought together in one volume: "The Complete Brandstetter".

Observatory history
From ObsUC
Between the years 1999 and 2001 we conducted an intensive campaign to find a proper location for the observatory. These included ski resorts in the Santiago outskirts and some small hills. Finally, we found the perfect location at the Hacienda Santa Martina, where we were welcomed.
We finished the construction in 2004 and we have been operating since January 2005.
The observatory has increased the number of telescopes to 4 and now it also hosts the SLOOH project.

Thanks for spending the time to check my blog out.
I am based in the UK and play Tyrnaids in 40k and Combined Army and Nomads in Infinity. I also like playing a range of board games.
The blog was originally intended to help some friends get into Infinity, but it has since evolved into my general thoughts into the different aspects of wargaming.
On a side note I often get asked why my blog is called Rise of R'lyeh, well it's a reference to Lovecraft stories and the Cthulhu Mythos, which I really enjoy. The most famous quote regarding R'lyeh is probably "In His House at R'lyeh Dead Cthulhu waits dreaming" from The Call of Cthulhu. If nothing else it sounds cool!
I hope you enjoy reading through my blog and visit often!

Uncle GrouchoPARTY BUS!! Put a hitch on it and pull a trailer...Make up your mind before you hack into it. Take it to tailgating events, make sure you paint it in neutral colors, OR you can paint it Red.Karl
TravelingPanMy county board of health has decided they want to be sneaky to prevent themselves from developing a revenue stream (food trucks).They won't license a restaurant/kitchen unless there is an employee toilet room with a hand sink in addition to the already required kitchen hand sink. Permits for temporary or mobile food service requires the use of a commissary kitchen (none for about 500 miles).I'm putting a porta-jon on a trailer with a handsink and a sign explaining it. I'll show 'em.

European School Milk Scheme
We contacted Defra last month to express our concerns that the delay to the planned consultation on the post-August 2017 European School milk scheme will leave schools with little time to prepare, and requested that the details of the changes be either communicated immediately, or that the changes be postponed.
Defra responded that they could neither provide full details (due to the election) nor delay implementation (due to EU law), but supplied a letter being issued by the Rural Payments Agency to all claimants in England that included details on changes to the rules on late payment claims, administrative penalties and flavoured milk. Defra added that they will be in contact again after the election with a copy of the national scheme strategy and copies of new forms. We will submit evidence to the consultation that will accompany this strategy once it is launched.
Additionally, both the Scottish and Welsh Governments have this month run consultations on the implementation of the new European School Milk Scheme. The Alliance responded to both consultations with submissions that focused on the need for changes to the schemes to be kept to a minimum, the urgency of considering new plans for a post-Brexit programme, and highlighting what should feature in the proposed educational material. The Northern Ireland government will be launching a similar consultation shortly to which we will also submit evidence.
