Edited to add: I just noticed that this never posted…so much for setting a date to do it automatically!
One of the last 'touring' things we did was to visit the Olympic Training Center. Honestly, while I enjoy watching the Olympics when they come around, I really didn't care if we missed that one, but it turned out to be one of my favorite places we saw.
It's a guided tour, and we were guided by an Olympic-hopeful. We got some inside information and will be looking for her in 2016! We saw many of the training areas, walked through the hall of fame, and watched a very inspirational video. They house many trainees in the Olympic Village, and the trainees can be as young as 15 years old. I just can't imagine sending my 15-year-old off to live elsewhere for years for the sake of a sport…
We also celebrated Twinkle's 3rd birthday on New Year's Day. As you can guess, it was a small affair- just dinner, presents, and cake.
"I'm fwee!"
Early the next morning, we headed out! We decided to spend a day with my aunt in Show Low, AZ so we took a
longer different way back. We decided to stop at Four Corners, the only place in the US where 4 states meet at one point. There is virtually nothing there but a nice little monument and wide open land. Oh, and let's not forget the toilet seats placed over a hole in the ground. All of that only cost $3 per person! Seriously, it's an outrageous price, but we figured it may be a very long time before we ever have a reason to be up that way again. So now we can say that we've been there, done that, got the T-shirt. Oh, wait. There were no t-shirts…or magnets…or coffee mugs…or anything else…
And that's it! The first thing my kids did when we got home was run to their beds and hug them :)
We had a fabulous time and look forward to seeing all the family again. Colorado is beautiful, but as the saying goes…there's no place like home!

He taught me to be organized.
He taught me to be humble and patient.
He taught me that respect is commanded, not demanded.
He inspired me to live a spiritually inclined life.
He inspired me to develop my interest in art and creativity.
He inspired me to be self-dependent.
He helped me learn to write in the cursive handwriting.(He himself is very good at it)
He helped me get to the institution I wished to study.
He accompanied me to every new location I had to go for my education.
He accompanied me in every town fairs and bought me the toys which got me transfixed (the stubbornness to not leave the shop unless 'I get that!'.He would still handle that patiently.)
I am thankful to my dad! He has been a great teacher, an inspiration, and an exemplary leader.Since childhood, I have seen him as a hard working man. My mom would often make us recall of our dad's hard work and tell us to never forget that all the education and comfort we are getting in life is because of him.
My dad doesn't talk much. He himself is an avid reader and he reads books on spirituality psychology, and medicine(Homeopathy, to be precise.A subject which he likes studying and he also started practicing it after qualifying a necessary exam )
He likes gardening and spends most of his free time attending to the plants. He is a versatile personality and tries to do most of the works by himself. He can fix taps, the old air cooler (which we had thought to be dead), his scooter(which is as old as I can remember), can cook (and also directed me to learn some culinary skills) and once or twice he gave me and some of my siblings a 'haircut' at home!(a fact many of my friends disbelieved that time!) In my young age, I would wonder 'Will I ever be able to learn so many skills like him when I grow up?' Now coming of age, I still think I haven't acquired the level of expertise he displayed in all these domains.These days he guides me about my job and managing my finances.
He taught me to think freely and never forced any ideology on us.Each of us siblings lived life the way we wanted. Yet he has always been there to support in any circumstance a help was needed, even before we asked for it.I owe him whatever I am today.He, with my mom, made wonderful parents.I hope he continues to stay versatile, inspiring happy and healthy!

August 8, 2006
by Canadian Architect
Presented by Champ Libre in collaboration with contermporary art magazine Parachute, this symposium takes place from September 22-23, 2006 at the Grande Bibliothque du Qubec in Montreal.
In the context of Champ Libre's 7th Biennale, the symposium will reflect on interrogations concerning the INVISIBLE CITY, linked to changing paradigms in today's cities and between remote regions. An attempt will be made to analyze how new global cities – defined by accelerated transformations and new critical masses due to changing economies, populations and demographics, political and social transformations – may nourish a different concept of the city as well as new art practices, which in turn reveal the city's "invisibility" in imperceptible ways.
The event features numerous international guest lecturers such as Saskia Sassen, Stefano Boeri, Louis Jacob and many others.
For more information and to register, please visit www.champlibre.com/colloque2006.

My introduction to Skillet was Collide, which is one of my favorite CD's. This CD is good as well but I do not like it as much as Collide. This CD has an electric sound to it, what many call techno rock. I'm not a big techno fan so I'm not crazy about those tracks.
Like Collide, Hey You, I Love Your Soul is not for the easy listening crowd. It sure isn't one that my wife asks to listen to. On the other hand this CD actually belongs to my 13 year old son and I haven't grown up much either.
Skillet does have the ability of making a good slower rock ballad. Those who do not like heavy rock would probably a couple of the songs off of this CD but may not care much for the rest of the songs.
Coming Down is one of my favorite songs on this CD. It is one of the slower songs but it is different. Can you imagine me liking a song that starts out with just piano music? It's mostly piano and voice with some real interesting guitar and drum mixed in. This one is worth listening to for something a little different.
If you like the other Skillet CD's or techno rock in particular this one is worth a listen.

I feel like all I do anymore is talk to you about my new patterns – but hey – I am so thrilled to be designing!! I really should show you some cutie cute baby knits – since I am heading out to CA tomorrow, I can totally do that next week!
But right now I wanted to show you Camille!!!
I am so thrilled to have two patterns in the January 2011 issue of Yarn Forward Magazine (Issue #32). First is an evening cape with a vintage feel. This is sized in a very large range – something that Yarn Forward does with all of it's patterns.
And a pair of matching opera length gloves.
These are knit in Blue Sky Alpacas Alpaca Silk and are just beautiful. Yarn Forward did an amazing job on the photography and pattern editing. I am thankful to Yarn Forward for this opportunity.
A special thank you to my wonderful model, Abbie! Isn't she beautiful!!!!
You can buy Yarn Forward at places like Borders and B&N (it takes a bit of time to make it to the US newstands). You can also order a digital download of the magazine.

Ariel Winter Offers Showbiz Advice for Kids: Just Have Fun
Whether you know it or not, you've probably heard Ariel Winter's voice more times that you think. After all, the 16-year-old actress stars as the smarty-pants Alex on Modern Family. She's also the voice of animated kid favorite Sofia the First.
Well, the film and TV star is lending her voice to another project, Mr. Peabody & Sherman, a DreamWorks Animation film about a time-traveling genius dog (voiced by Winter's TV dad Ty Burrell) and his adoptive son (Max Charles) that's hitting theaters March 7.
We participated in a roundtable interview with Winter, who told us just how much she identified with her character, the sassy Penny Peterson, and which Oscar winner she'd love to work with.
Did you see yourself in your character, Penny?
The sass is real. The sass is so real. I loved her sassiness, although I would never steal someone's sandwich. That's just off limits.
What was your favorite historical place featured in the time-traveling film?
I loved either ancient Egypt, because [my character] was engaged [to King Tut] and that was pretty fun. And then I also loved the Trojan War, because Sherman was a mini Trojan and that was adorable.
Do you prefer live-action roles or voice-only roles?
I definitely don't prefer one over the other. I think I've just been doing them both so long that I wouldn't be able to pick one. I love the challenge of having to express yourself only through your voice ... but I'm also the type of person that I want to have my hand in all aspects of the entertainment industry. I want to open a record label, and I want to be on the music side, and I also want to be in front of the camera and behind the camera. I have a lot of things I want to do in the entertainment industry.
In the movie, Sherman has to push through his dad's protectiveness to go forward and do more. Has there been a time in your life that you've had to push through for a dream?
I think everyone goes through that in their life at some point. And what I think is funny is that throughout the entire movie, Penny is kind of giving Sherman the pep talk that he should believe in himself and that Penny believes in him—well, after they get through their whole sassy Penny to Sherman.
And I love that, because I think what's really important is to have that person there who's telling you that you can do it and believing in you.
What advice do you have for kids who want to pursue acting?
Just to have fun. And you have to know for a fact that you want to do this, and you have to apply yourself 100 percent to it. I think the main thing is while you're doing that—because it is hard to achieve this dream if it is your dream—you have to have fun with it because it's very possible to get kind of lost in the technicalities of things. But the most important thing is to have fun with what you're doing and really love it.
Are there any actors or actresses you're dying to work with?
I would love to work with Leonardo DiCaprio. Or Angelina Jolie. Big dreams.

Describing the backlash as 'confusing', Football Federation Australia says its decision to restrict substitutions to one player per change will bring long-term improvements to match-day experience – by eliminating the need for stadiums to play more than one walk-out song at a time.
Speaking at the unveiling of a statue at Sydney's ANZ Stadium commemorating 10 years of football in Australia, FFA spokesperson Clive Umani told journalists the criticism levelled at the organisation was unfair, with detractors failing to consider the football experience of fans who attend live games.
"There's nothing worse than conflicting music blasting over stadium speakers. Ground announcers have told FFA they struggle to decide which player's walk-out song needs to be played first when there are multiple substitutions at once, which ultimately impacts how much fans enjoy being at the match.
"I spoke to one mother during the off-season, who said she had to comfort her children as nib Stadium tried to contend with a double substitution by playing two walk-out songs at once. Not the kind of match-day experience we want our fans to have heading into Season 11."
Mr Umani pleaded with supporters to give FFA time to iron out the kinks.
"We acknowledge those fans whose experience with player walk-out music has been less than stellar.
"By restricting multiple substitutions, not only do we go a long way towards making match-day music a more enjoyable experience, A-League will be brought further in line with sports such as cricket's Big Bash League, which has the luxury of only having one player enter the arena at a time."

Nicole Cutty and Megan McDonald have more in common than just being high school seniors in the small town of Emerson Bay, North Carolina. They both disappeared from the same beach party at the beginning of summer. The police launched a search but no clues were found. Shortly afterwards Megan manages to escape from a bunker deep in the woods. Fast forward a year and Megan has turned into a national celebrity when her book detailing her time spent in captivity and her escape has landed on the bestseller list. But for some this is another painful reminder that Nicole is still missing. Nicole's older sister, Livia, is a fellow in forensic pathology and she expects that someday her sister's body will end up on her autopsy table. But for now, Livia's first clue about her sister's disappearance comes from another body that shows up in the morgue - a young man she's never seen or heard of before. After some digging around Livia is close to figuring out the truth. With snippets of Megan's memory returning, the pair will uncover something deeply disturbing.
This was suspenseful! It goes back and forth from the summer leading up to the disappearances and the aftermath. It was well-written and left me guessing until the very end. Livia has an interesting profession and I didn't find it too bogged down with the terminology that went along with it.
Thank you to Kensington Books and Netgalley for a copy of this book.

Self-Awareness for Leaders
Self-awareness and self-management
One of the key challenges for leaders and supervisors of other people is to be constantly alert and aware - aware of the surrounding environment and situation; aware of one's own perceptions, actions and reactions; and aware of the influence and impact of our behaviour on others. Without a high level of self-awareness, leaders and supervisors will struggle to show empathy, to lead, engage and motivate their people.
Aspects of Self-Awareness
Our one-day workshop focuses on several aspects of self-awareness, to help leaders to understand that there are many facets of them as individuals that will affect their relationships and leadership of other people. Among the aspects we look at are:
Leadership style - we use the highly validated and respected Full Range Leadership ® model to illustrate different modes of leadership and their impact on others, along with role-modelling.
Relating, conflict-management and change resistance profiles - participants self-assess against well-known models to gain a better understanding of their own and others' profiles and styles, and how to work with other styles.
Work roles - workshop participants review the percentage of their time that they spend on leadership / management / functional activities, versus the percentages they see as required or ideal in their position.
Work and team approaches - participants complete the Belbin Team Role Profiler ® for better self-awareness of their preferred working styles, and appreciation of the benefits of other approaches.
Input from others - we use the Johari Window ® and a variety of feedback tools to illustrate the importance of seeking, accepting and applying feedback from others to improve self-awareness and understand others' perceptions.
What will participants learn about self-awareness, self-management and awareness of others?
Understanding the importance of self-awareness and self-management in leadership
Balancing leadership, management and functional roles
Managing stakeholders' expectations and priorities
Managing your time and priorities, and your team's
Tools and techniques to help understand self and others
Understanding and working with diverse styles of working, relating, communicating, conflict management and change resistance
Actively seeking and being open to feedback
Understanding and using a coaching tool for personal improvement and coaching others
How will participants apply what they learn about self-awareness?
The workshop is all about prompting questions, self-analysis, overall awareness and ideas.
The final activity in the workshop is to complete a self-assessment, with each participant rating their performance on a range of self-awareness questions against the importance of that factor to good leadership in their own context. Where gaps (opportunities) are identified, participants use the ERGOS PIE ® coaching tool to prioritise their own improvement actions and development plans, for direct application when they return to their leadership roles.

My feral druid has a solid look I wanted for bear spec gear (Ruthless G, Season 11). But she struggles on what to do about cat gear.
My caster druid has a similar problem. She already has her battleground healer look (Bloodthirsty G, Season 9), but she doesn't quite know what she wants for moonkin gear. There's the popular Merciless G shoulders (like tier 5 for PvE), laid over top a Trial of the Crusader era tier.
But now I think I've got it.
Eclipse is what defines the moonkin for me, besides being big and fluffy and having the best dance moves. So I went about making a Lunar set and a Solar set. I know that some of the Cataclysm druid tiers already have a yellow and a blue skin of the tiers, but I wanted something non-tier (at least mostly). Something with more of the main color than what the tier has. I also wanted the two sets to mirror each other in gear styles, if possible. So either both robe or both pants, etc.
So here's my finished set that I'm happy with.
The wrist slot (Vicious Leather Bracers) is mostly so I have effectively "invisible" bracers. I chose one item convenient to me, but there are other small bracers out there for you to use.
Wowhead –> view in 3D
Head: Agile Bio-Optic Killshades
Shoulders: Wolverine Shoulderguards
Back: Sergeant's Heavy Cape
Chest: Carapace of Sun and Shadow
Hands: Barbaric Gloves
Waist: Insignia Belt
Legs: Kilt of the Forgotten One
Feet: Tundra Wolf Boots
2H Staff: Cataclysmic Gladiator's Energy Staff (S11 Elite)
Wowhead –> view in 3D
Head: Camouflage Bio-Optic Killshades
Shoulders: Replica Feralheart Shoulders
Back: Caretaker's Cape
Chest: Warpwood Bark Vest
Hands: Moonglade Handwraps
Waist: Guardian's Leather Belt
Legs: Kilt of the Night Strider
Feet: Veteran's Leather Boots
2H Staff: Devotion
Personal Notes
My druid, Xeny, is a night elf gal, so my apologies if this set actually looks terrible on something like a tauren male.
Xeny is an engineer, so I used the Engineer-only Killshades for her headset, since she wears them normally. They merrily fit, too. 🙂 I usually don't show the helm, so I usually don't plan on helms.
I currently use a staff for my DPS set, so I chose staves to find. I mostly went by the colors and the above sets are my favorites of what I saw. I'll likely end up actually using something else (especially since one is an elite PvP weapon!).
I much prefer kilts & dress-robes over pants for my female toons, so that's what I look for first.

Maeve, your first week & a bit in the world has been an unbelievable one. You have been sleeping well, drinking your milk like a champion, burping up a storm, and having some lovely long and relaxed awake time. I've even managed to duck out all by myself a handful of times, with the knowledge that if you wake, you have your doting papa & sister to take care of you until I return. So far you're patient and content, hungry and sleepy.
Lola, you have been as your papa described, 'ridiculously amazing' since Maeve has arrived.
Your profound love for your sister shone through the first moment you lay eyes on her. Just now as you left for a morning of fun with your papa, you yelled from the driveway, "Give Maeve extra kisses from me, don't let her cry mama, and change her nappy too! We'll be back soon to help with the burps."
You are constantly expressing your love for her, just how great she is, how you don't want her to grow up, how she is yours, and all the things you will teach her. You read to her, show her your sticker book and sing songs.
First cuddles on day one.
This week we have:
- Explored the Botanic Gardens on the windiest of days. Maeve at just three days old, you lay in your pram, eyes wide as saucers, as your sister twirled and leapt ahead.
- We celebrated your 3rd birthday Lola, with beach frolics, a special family party, and to top it off, a super fun birthday party with all your sweet little friends.
- Lola, you have introduced Maeve to David Bowie, Cloud Control & Harry Belafonte. Lola, we introduced Maeve & yourself to Elvis Presley, who has quickly become a new favourite.
- We have spent plenty of time in the garden, in the clam pool, blowing bubbles & al fresco dining.
- Maeve, you had your first bath with papa & Lola, thoroughly enjoying it... that is until it was time to get out.
- Maeve, you have pleased our lovely midwife by exceeding your birth weight, & we have since been discharged from the program.
Just home from hospital & soaking up double the cuddles.
First bath & gentle wash by a very proud sister.
We head down south tomorrow for a little holiday, and to introduce our Maeve to life by the river. Lola, you can't wait to see your Omi & Opi.
Here's to a wonderful second week with our little Mae flower & Lola girl.

10 Valuable Life Skills For Children, Teenagers and Young People
Children Need A Strong Foundation To Survive
In order to survive in this world, children need to know some basic life skills that will carry them through life and help them be productive citizens and role models.
Children that were born between 1980 to present are missing out on a lot of foundational lessons, and because of their lack of knowledge, we are turning into a dysfunctional society that lacks standards, morals and character. This does mean that their are strong well-adjusted kids in the world though.
I do not write this article to say that there is not good in society, not by any means. What I am saying is this, we are in the midst of moral decay. We have become too accepting of immoral acts and young people feel indifferent about major issues. I will not make a list of the immoral acts because I know you have read it in the paper. We have compromised our standards, and our children are suffering because of it. Hear me out, and let's reason together.
What Is The Most Amount of Money Your Child Made With a Lemonade Stand?
Is Technology Ruining Us?
We have all made mistakes, and I will be the first to admit it; however, we can do better. Our children have been greatly affected by our sins and improprieties, and they need direction and healing. Technology has had a major impact on the way we communicate with each other. While technology has advanced us, we have also seen the harmful affects of the misuse of technology.
When I think about my teenagers and young adult daughter, I think about the many lessons I learned growing up as a child that they either did not get or got it late in their teens. We as a society have allowed technology to spoil our kids. For example, we text our children a message when they are right across the hall from us in their bedroom.
Do you think you give your children too much - materially?
Entitlement Generation
My last thought before I move on is this. I believe that we have given our children what they have not earned, and that is a problem. I am not apposed to technology or material things, what I am apposed to is the fact that some kids do not appreciate what you give them. The term that is used today is, "entitlement" – kids feel that you owe them something.
For those who are still reading, there is hope and I do have some answers for you today. Following, you will find a list of teachable lessons for your young person that you can make enjoyable and have some fun with your children while teaching them.
Cute Video About Kids Learning Life Lessons
First Three Lessons
1. Open a Savings Account. Where your money goes, so does your heart. Find a local bank near your home, and take your child to open a savings account. They will have to have a small amount of cash to get started. Saving is a fundamental lesson that needs to be taught and learned early. A child is never too young to learn about money. Opening a Lemonade Stand is one way to teach children about money, and they will have fun doing it.
2. Business Meeting Etiquette. Every kid should learn the protocol of how to act in a business meeting. Proper attire, the handshake and effective communication will help your child get a job, scholarship or even win a proposal. Kids should learn to shake with confidence.
3. Hand-Wash The Car. Yes, I know we have drive-thru car washes, but washing the car themselves can give children a greater appreciation for the car they own. You might want to teach them how to change the oil while you are at it.
More Life Lessons
4. Basic Household Chores. Clean the bathroom. Mop the floor. Cook a basic meal. A home must be kept clean for sanitary reasons. I have two sons, and there are times when I have gone into their rooms, and you would have thought a hurricane came through. Boys need to clean just like girls, because one day they will be men -- and no girl wants an unclean man.
5. How To Treat The Opposite Sex. Both boys and girls need to know how to conduct themselves like gentlemen and ladies in each others' presence. Opposite sex relationships start in a child's early life. They need to understand that their body is a temple, and they should not defile it with uncleanliness. Children must be taught what their bodies are purposed for.
6. Good Study Habits. When good study habits are formed, the sky is the limit. I realize all students are not "A" students, but they should do the best they can. Laziness is friend to poverty. And if your student needs help, make sure they get the support they need. Scholarships are the reward of good study habits. Some children need more support in this area than others. Set aside time daily for kids to study and follow up on things they have learned in school.
7. Summertime Is Not The Time To Be Lazy. Summertime is the time for adventure, and discovery. In school a child has to follow the school's curriculum guidelines – but summertime is the time to do your own agenda. Summer enrichment programs and internships have changed many students' lives. Find local opportunities that your child can participate in - Churches, Colleges and Universities usually offer enrichment classes and/or programs.
Last Few Life Skills For Children
8. Reading Outside Of School Is Essential. Kids should build their knowledge base by reading and more reading. You can learn alot on your own just by reading. If you are a reader, you will be far advanced among your peers. Knowledge opens many doors.
9. You Can Get Pregnant If You Have Sexual Intercourse Just One Time. The best thing to do about sex as a child or teen is to abstain until marriage. You will save yourself a whole lot of grief, emotional issues, sexual disease and a potential pregnancy that you never planned. Premature sex has hurt many young people's lives.
10. Respect Your Parents And Adults. I saved this one for last, although is could easily have been first. You can learn a lot from a child that respects adults; they will go far in life. A parent represents authority. The respect of a parent comes with a blessing – you will live long upon the earth. Even when parents are wrong, children should respect their parents. Respect does not mean that you you have to agree with your parents, it means acknowledging that they are the parent without fighting back.
Discuss This List With Your Child, Teenager and Young Person
That's it for now. I hope this hub sparks a discussion with your child or teenager, because they need it. It is never too late to help our young people -- and if this list looks overwhelming, start with that one point and work on it to bring you peace, comfort and joy.
Thanks for reading and enjoy your day!
I totally agree. I was a classroom teacher for eighteen years and I have seen definite decay in values and life skills.
You would not believe how many young adults and even older adults I have encounter who never learned these life lessons. This is a pretty good list.
Sima, what a fantastic hub ... so much useful information and so timely. Teenagers are lacking in basic life skills knowledge. I don't believe they even believe it!
Treasures, this is a great list. As a teacher, I see good kids and not so good kids. I believe they can all rise to their potential with the right guidance. Work ethic, respect, and common sense are the main things that our kids need, and your list covers it.
Great hub! Votes and shared! :-)
Sima, I voted this one WAY UP What a beautiful and important hub! Part of what caught my eye was the title. I've used: 'Life Skills' in at least two of my hubs re: teens. One of the first things I set about doing, when my nephew J came to live with me four years ago, was to find out what he could do and teach him those basic skills he could not do. Well, there was more of what he could not do than the opposite.
In the four years he's lived with me he has gone from dependent and angry 15 yr old, to a (mostly) pleasant, well mannered, and independent 19 yr old. He graduated with a 3.32 gpa and is accepted into a NC college.
He knows how to wash dishes, (his primary chore at home), shop, handle money, (those were tough lessons about buying friendship!), has his own account, does his own laundry, can cook simple meals, and knows the importance of getting along in the world while maintaining his values.
This is a very important hub for all to read and especially, those who have preteens! Thanks for presenting it and I intend to share.
Treasures, you are so correct on these life skills and lessons. Thanks for tackling this topic. Voted Up and Useful.
Very interesting and thanks for sharing.
great hub which had given me a great indepth of what i had given my kids, not the value of good characteristics but too spoilt for choices. Most parents around my neighborhood and friends do the same thing too, given too much technology stuff to the kids and pamper them by doing many things for them. Need to reconsider my actions too. Thanks for enlightening me.

Activities: Olive oil tourism
- Miller's Breakfast:
Enjoy toast made by the fireplace in the purest traditional style. You can choose to have your toast with organic extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality or with ACEITEROL, a product that combines lycopene extract (natural tomato antioxidant) along with our organic extra virgin olive oil. Coffee, milk, chocolate, juice and water are also available at your choice for complementing your toasts.
- Guided visit at our ecological oil mills:
Learn in a first-hand way the elaboration of the organic and conventional extra virgin olive oil guided by one of our expert miller.
To better enjoy the on-site visit of production process, we recommend you to make the visit in the months of harvest season between November and January when mills are at their full productive activities.
In case of the visit not in the olive season, an explanatory video of the production process will be projected and visitors can ask our millers any questions on the topic.
Start with an exhibition and explanation of different olive oils in cups, from the extra virgin olive oil until the third one of lame quality even oil made of pomace and samples of oil under bad exposure in store or expired.
Then we will pass two to three cups of flat oil to every visitor, one with fruity olive oil, one with plain olive oil, and the third with oil of flawed quality, for everyone to see the differences between them. Attendees can taste different types of oil according to the established olive oil standards and then learn how to differentiate a good olive oil for the one that is not.
After that we will have a Q&A session to answer any doubts of the attendees.
- Visit of ecological olive groves:
Enjoy each step around the centenarian olive trees of ecological production, where our guide will explain the characteristics of these unique olive trees, its age, collection and the other things about organic farming.
In addition, as an optional activity, visitors can enjoy some of the most characteristic food in the Extremadura gastronomy that we prepared in advance, such as classic tapas of Iberian ham, olives, summer sausage, Iberian chorizo and cheese… all match with the most exquisite wines with designation of origin Ribera del Guadiana.
Where you can enjoy visiting a town whose origin dates back to the time of Roman Empire with the legendary city of Segeda, which has an extraordinary importance during the medieval times for being on the borderline that divided the taifas kingdoms of Seville and Badajoz.
The guided tour will show the most significant places of the city of Zafra, Grande Plaza Grande, Small Plaza, Puerta de Jerez, Arch of the Nave, Town Hall Square, Door of D. Antonio Mecca, Castle of the Paradors and Plaza of the Heart of Mary among the others.
Visit the convent of the 16th century purchased by the family of Medina and converted into a wine cellar. Now this winery of The Convent is a bodega-museum where you can see the traditional methods of wine production, as well as try its exquisite wine and learn to taste like a pro.

Hexadecimalised, Metric-aligned Imperial Measures
Despite enduring optimism from the USA and defiance from quaint, antiquated Britain, it seems inevitable that American standard and British imperial measurements will eventually die. As I see it, imperial and standard measures have two problems; firstly that they are bizarre; the following diagram of relationships between imperial units demonstrates this with stark, bewildering clarity:
Secondly, it is not easy to convert between imperial and metric units; conversion factors need memorising, and tables consulting when going between one and the other. Nobody likes this.
However, there is an awesome, cosmic coincidence which exists at a pivotal point between the two systems which, if exploited through a slight tweaking and reform of imperial measures, could not only save these units from fading into insignificance, but could even turn the tables with this neo-imperial system becoming the preferred system of scientists, engineers, merchants and laymen alike, with the comparatively inelegant metric system being consigned to the history books.
This idea has two components: Firstly, a slight adjustment of the inch and the mile. Secondly, the hexadecimalisation of Imperial measures and with it the creation of succinct new word prefixes meaning 161, 162, 163 etc., just as 101, 102 and 103 are defined as deka, hecto and kilo respectively in the metric system.
Now this is certainly not the first proposal for an adjustment of imperial measurements; some have previously advocated, for example, redefining the foot as 1/3 of a metre, others have suggested 0.3m, in order to shoe-horn them neatly into the metric system. However, I propose redefining the foot as 0.29296875m; a quantity with mathematical properties far preferable to 0.33̅ or 0.3. Allow me to explain why.
The Problem with Decimal: Our Binary Intuition
Although now ubiquitous, the metric system and a decimal system of arithmetic have no shortage of detractors. Even in 1859 John Nystrom submitted a scathing critique of the inelegance of the decimal metric system in his book advocating that base 16 be adopted as the universal radix. At the time his recommendations faded into obscurity as the metric system gained international acceptance. However, since the dawn of computing and with it the notion of binary numbers, generations of scientists and engineers have re-discovered the elegance of number radices which are a power of two such as hexadecimal and base 256. Not that this was a secret; many traditional systems of weights and measures feature halves, quarters, eighths, sixteenths and so on, not least the imperial inch and avoirdupois pound.
Succinctly, the reason powers-of-two have such utility is that halving and doubling are about the simplest and most intuitive operations that humans and computers can perform on a given quantity. Practically, using a simple weighing scale and no weights, it is possible to split a pound into halves, then each of those into halves again, and so on until you are left with sixteenths – or in other words, ounces. Despite the apparent elegance of having ten hectograms to the kilogram, it is impossible to split a kilo into hectos using just a scale; you can achieve 125g (1/8th), 62.5g (1/16th), but not 100g. The same problem arises when dividing lengths; in secondary school my geography teacher Mr Pelton assured me that estimating tenths of a grid square on a map was intuitive and that humans were very good at this; however it is clear that humans are far more adept at splitting lengths into halves, then halves again, and again, than they are at estimating fifths or tenths, and there is a neat online Java applet (see links) which demonstrates this by asking you to click to divide an object into pieces: it is demonstrably easier to divide into binary quantities than tenths.
Metric-Binary Abominations
The most surprising place you can observe humankind's preference for power-of-two quantities is in products sold in metric quantities in metric countries. Looking through my (European) kitchen cupboard, there are a surprising number of products which are sold in 500, 250 or 125 gram or mililitre quantities – these all being binary divisions of one kilogram or litre.
One would expect, if decimal really did possess the utility that its proponents claim, that you would rarely see 250g and 125g quantites, but instead 100g, 200g or 300g; that is, similar amounts in rounded hectograms. This observation is testament to the fact that people prefer to divide things in a binary way.
What is alarming about my European pantry however, is that you will never see products which are 62.5g – that is, half of 125g; 1/16th of a kilogram. As soon as the amount cannot be expressed neatly in whole grams or ml, people abandon this intuitive behaviour and instead plump for 100g – and then start using binary divisions of 100g; there are no shortage of products in 50g, 25g, etc. amounts! This highlights the cognitive dissonance present in the mind of anyone trying to achieve neat binary divisions and neat rounded numbers at the same time, but failing due to the nature of the decimal base.
Hexadecimalisation – Metres or Hectometres?
One approach for a hexadecimal system of measures would be to simply invent words for base-16 multipliers similar to kilo- and mili-. For example, a "dexametre" might be 16 metres and a "heximetre" might be 0.116 (in hexadecimal, i.e. 1/16th) metres. This has the advantage of the metre remaining the standard universal unit, whatever the radix. This would mean a complete abandoning of the Imperial systems, as these quantities (16m and 62.5mm) have no similar Imperial equivalents.
However, it may be desirable to instead have 100 metres to be the common point between the two systems, due to a handful of delightful coincidences which exist.
Imperial and Metric – Separated at Birth?
Notice that 1/16th of a mile is 100.584 metres – almost exactly a hectometre.
Notice that there are 63360 inches in a mile.
Notice that 164 is 65536 (a number that will be familiar to any programmer as the number of values expressible by a 16-bit byte), and that this is close to 63360.
By exploiting the similarities between these figures; we could redefine a mile as being 65536 inches, thus hexadecimalising Imperial measures with exactly 1000016 (hexadecimal 10000) inches to the mile.
With a 100m imperial city block, a mile could therefore become 1600m; or 16 city blocks.
With these adjustments, 100m becomes a handy point at which conversions can take place between the metric and imperial systems, without the need for look-up tables of awkward conversion factors.
With the revised, "neo-imperial" system, the inch changes from 25.4mm to 24.4140625mm – an ugly number in decimal, but you will never have to memorise it because it is simply one block (100m) ÷ 16 ÷ 16 ÷ 16. In hexadecimal it is not an ugly number; it is exactly 0.001base 16 blocks. Twelve of these neo-inches would equal 0.29296875m – hence my earlier comment that one foot would be this length. The foot itself, as 12 inches, would cease to be a useful measure, and would be superseded by the new cubit (16").
So, there would be 16 inches in a cubit, 16 cubits in a lug, 16 lugs in a block and 16 blocks in a mile. Or, using new binary prefixes, the inch, cubit, lug and block could become synonymous with, say, germi-mile, sulfi-mile, cromi-mile and oxy-mile respectively, supposing new hexadecimal prefixes might be named after elements in the periodic table: E.g., oxygen has atomic number 8. 28 = 162 = 256. 1 mile / 256 = one oxy-mile.
Do Not Open Until 2050
A final note about the strategy behind implementing of such a reform: if I were Mayor of Measurement in the USA and had the power to execute this change tomorrow, I would not. Moving from one system to another very similar system overnight would be disastrous. Instead, I would look to the present day UK to see what opportunities the future might hold. A move like this would be practically possible in the UK today, because imperial measures are never used in situations requiring great accuracy in Britain; you hear people casually talking about x inches of snow or y feet of rope, but in technical contexts metric is always used. Therefore, if the British governing bodies were to declare a new inch as being 24.4140625mm tomorrow, there would be no great impact; 20 inches of snow would still be 20 inches of snow to ordinary people; yet 132 micrometres would still be exactly 132 micrometres to the engineer. Similarly, roughly 50 miles would still be roughly 50 miles to a car driver; yet 80km would still be exactly 80km to the surveyor. The only people affected would be those who do not require great accuracy.
If the SI metric system is adopted in the USA, as it inevitably will be, especially if metric China becomes the world's dominant economy thus denying the USA its ability to impose avoirdupois on the rest of the world, American standard measures could conceivably go the way of British imperial system in mere decades, relegated to imprecise, informal use only. If this happens, it could be the perfect time for a reform and revival of a re-invented hexadecimal standard system of weights, measures and arithmetic; one which can co-exist happily with the decimal metric system and which could gain great favour with engineers, merchants and laymen the world over.

Is it posible to have a form (custom form's) data submitted to jotform server and be manageable from a jotform account.
Custom form refers to hand coded html-css form submitted to a jotform url (i.e. action="jotform's some url") so that all form submissions etc be manageable under a jotform account.
- KadeJMAnswered on January 09, 2014 at 10:40 AM
Unfortunately I'm not so sure that I'm following you 100% on this. May we know more about you intentions behind doing something like this and what exactly you would need this type of ability for? Did you mean that you are trying to have a form that can grab submissions from several forms to manage on a master form so that the data is merged and controllable on that master form as an example? Or?
I don't necessarily think this is feasible but I would honestly need to know more about the purpose of this so that I understand what you are looking to do with it. It may be possible with your account api outside of JotForm but I don't think it would be possible to be managed from within your account.

Number 165 / September 1999:
FOOLED AGAIN..... A friend who works in the concert industry wondered why the crowd at Woodstock had gotten so upset. "They knew the ticket price before they got there. What did they expect?" he asked. Good question. First of all, it has a useful answer: For their $150, the fans expected to be treated as something better than ATMs for which the promoters and concessionaires had the only cards.
The context of the looting and burning at Woodstock isn't Littleton or Altamont or the rumbles at Alan Freed concerts forty years ago. A much closer parallel is the 1992 rebellion in Los Angeles. It's one thing to be in a disaster area, like the first Woodstock back in '69, where facilities are overstrained or nonexistent. People instinctively pull together. But the crisis at this year's Woodstock was completely artificial. There was plenty to go around. The question was whether you had enough money to pay $4 for a pint of water, $6 for a chicken salad sandwich or $12 for a snack-sized pizza. Under those circumstances, people do react with fury. That's what the looting and trashing, especially the smashing and theft of the festival's ATMs, was all about.
People went to Woodstock to get away from it all, especially from the tension of grasping for dollars that runs the "real" world. Yet once they got to "Woodstock" (which was actually in Rome, NY a couple hundred miles from Yasgur's farm) fans discovered that they had slipped from frying pan to fire. For that weekend, those middle-class ticket- buyers were treated the way the residents of our nation's poor communities are treated every day. Because they aren't used to being sucked dry, these rock fans rebelled after just three days of such treatment. That doesn't make them heroes but it doesn't make them brats, either. It makes them victims of a swindle.
The nature of the swindle was an essential part of the event. The famous posters for the first Woodstock, with that dove perched on the guitar, promised three days of peace, love and music. Woodstock became legendary because half-a-million people showed up-- most of them getting in free--and because despite rain, lack of sanitation, and essential resources stressed past the breaking point, no one died. There was no rebellion at the first Woodstock.
What did Woodstock '99 promise? Three days of music with a really, really big audience. What was being sold was simply the sheer scale of the event. But Woodstock isn't just a music festival. It's also that promise of freedom. At Woodstock '69, with wars raging in Vietnam and in America's inner cities, "freedom" implied personal and social liberation. That's why Pete Townshend said recently that he regretted kicking Abbie Hoffman off the stage at the first Woodstock. Abbie was trying to connect Woodstock with the great social and historical currents of its time. Townshend now says, "What he was arguing for was very valid."
The promoters of the 1999 festival did their best to erase all that from the history of Woodstock. They even managed to make a travesty of the "peace" part of the message by claiming that holding the festival this year on an abandoned Air Force base was some kind of symbol that, despite Belgrade and Baghdad, "we have won." Still, there's no denying that in rock'n'roll, a new concept of freedom has replaced the old one. This year's substitute was the Howard Stern version of freedom, where you get your kicks and to hell with who gets hurt. People did get hurt and several women were raped.
This is what happens now that the old hippie ideals have been mocked to death and recast as sales slogans. This is what goes on when the crumbs of our dreams are spewed out alongside Budweiser commercials for so long that the kind of dumbass thug who didn't go to Woodstock because he hated longhairs thinks he can come along now as part of a "tradition." We should never forget that with peace, love and freedom at $150 a head, tight security and promoters in full control, and food and water sold by the kind of people who'd put you in prison if you tried to put some marijuana into the brownies, what happens is you get fucked.
In its way, Woodstock 1969 was a celebration of innocence. Woodstock 1999 makes it clear that we have not gotten back to the garden. And there can be no claims that no one could foresee what might happen. Consequences like this have been foreseeable at least since Altamont, where no rapes were reported but a murder was committed. Ralph Gleason wrote a column right after Altamont lambasting the Dead, the Stones, and others involved because they should have known what would happen if they invited a gang of Hell's Angels to supervise a party full of hippies. Today's Woodstock promoters should have known that selling freedom without selling peace and love in our society is an invitation to rape and riot. Yet, as Al Kooper wrote after being sent an earlier version of this piece: "As long as there is one dollar bill waving in the breeze, there will be some sort of promoters vying for it."

It's back- that anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach, that subtle gnawing that says things are not ok. I managed the initial guilt of me on holidays while cancer gallops merrily across my mum's body. I calmed myself when my son rang with the fabulous news of his upcoming interview for the uni of his choice, though I was thinking ' how can you contemplate moving away when your grandmother is dying?' I have justified every happy moment up here as 'gathering my strength for what's to come' I woke from cruel dreams of mum looking fabulous while explaining to me how her end will come, not with a bang but a long drawn out whimper. And when I call her today I know she'll say she's fine and want only to hear news of my holiday. But I've got a feeling there's a lot more she needs to say
Going where the weather suits my clothes
We made it! My husband and I are in fabulous Port Douglas. This holiday had been booked for months but I really didn't think we'd get here because of mum. But she's doing ok and was happy for us to go. So here we are with an average daily temperature of 30 degrees Celsius , a beautiful pool, so many choices of bars, restaurants and cafes and each other. 8 days in a tropical lighthouse.
Please don't put me underground
I don't want you to think I'm a whinger or a pessimist, in fact I am the exact opposite, at times positive to a fault. I've had a fabulous day,my school had it's annual fair which is such an amazing community effort. It warms my heart to see so many people come together for a common cause. I've been comfortably busy all day, with no spare room in my brain for maudlin thoughts. Then came the drive home. I was quietly content, very pleased with how the day had gone. My kids and husband came along to the fair and helped out- one of the many times when my work and home life melded seamlessly. My playlist kept me smiling- some Arctic Monkeys,a bit of Temper Trap and even a walk down memory lane with Bruce Springteen. Then Megan Washington was soulfully singing 'Underground'. This is an amazing song about what she wants to happen when she dies. The chorus begins with 'if the day is sunny let my father say some words and if the night is starry let my mother tell you all her stories' . I lost my dad 16 years ago and it certainly doesn't look like mum will be around to tell any stories, not that I expect nor want her to bury her children, but I'd hoped she might tell a story at my 50th next year. And with that chorus my contentment was gone and reality was back. I so don't want my mum to die.
Mother or daughter? At 49 you'd expect to know who you are, wouldn't you?
I want to cry for my mother like the daughter that I am. I want to be sad and angry and I want it to show. I want to tell people to get over the pathetic things they worry and moan about. I want to have a tantrum! After all my mum has been dealt a pretty crap hand and as her daughter I think I'm rightly pissed off about it!
But… when I see my children's faces, when I hear the sadness and fear in their voices as they process the grim facts of their grandmother's illness, when I hear the tears in my daughter's words on the 'phone and my son putting off hearing the latest news I remember I'm a mother. The greatest gift of all is to be just that- my children are by far the achievement I am most proud of and I know that my tantrums and unkind judgements have to be put to the side for them. Just as mum has put aside hers for me.
A moment's calm…..
This is not in chronological order from the last entry but today was a roller coaster. My little sister flew in to join us today to get the results of Monday's PET scan. Again my digestive system let me down and I felt positively nauseous from the moment I woke up. We made small talk over coffee and during our time in the waiting room. My sister and I played ' Perfect Match' where we looked at couples and decided if they were made for each other or not. Mum was clearly nervous, quite quiet and at times short with us. After a 70 minute wait mum's name was called. I was a bit wobbly on my feet but pulled myself together and followed the Dr in. Surpringly we were all relieved to hear that there were mets in mum's lung and liver- we'd all been expecting an even further spread. Our mood was much lighter than last week when we'd learned there were satellite tumours around the original site and a met in a lymph gland. We were all really down after that. So Gerry, our doctor said she'd do a referral to an oncologist- we requested Rosie who has an outstanding reputation with melanoma. Gerry explained surgery was unlikely but we all chose to ignore the implications of that statement and left feeling ok. Mum chose our lunch venue and all was well. We spent the afternoon in my backyard before heading to the airport for Belinda's flight home. Mum was happy- if dad was still alive today it would have been their 54th wedding anniversary: mum believed dad was watching over her and had even made a tree flower a month early for her💐. I came home happy, feeling like we had a reprieve for awhile anyway. Then I spoke to my med student daughter, she seemed down and wasn't sharing my joy. I did a bit of research and discovered just how shit today's news actually was: 4-12 months is the prognosis. FAAAAAARRRRRRKKKKK!!!!!!
Actually, I'm inviting you in
My mum asked me to drive her to a Drs appointment to have a lump cut off the top of leg, almost on her butt really. The appointment was on the 15th of September. Didn't think much of it, ducked off out of work for an hour and all was good. The next week, 22nd Sep, we went back to have the stitches out. I was just going to drop her off but I had a feeling that I should find a park and join her. The surgeon came out to greet her and asked 'Is this your daughter?' Mum answered that I was. He then asked if she'd like me to join them and she said no. Mum is an incredibly private person and wouldn't want me in a room where her pants might be on display while she got her stitches out!! The surgeon almost shut the door then clearly had a change of heart , reopening it and saying very definitely ' actially I'm inviting you in'. My anxiety levels began to rise then.
In a nutshell, he told us mum had an aggressive malignant melanoma, already 33mm deep. He explained a depth greater than 4mm had a very poor prognosis!!! I swallowed my vomit and clutched mum's hand. She remained expressionless. This woman with fair skin, who had never sun baked a day in her life and certainly wouldn't have had her bum on display if she had, had a deadly disease usually associated with the sun.
We were told CT, PET and MRI scans would all be needed and surgery was booked for the 30th, when the rest of the tumour would be removed and lymph nodes sampled.
I needed my lighthouse.
Josh Pike
I love The Lighthouse Song by Josh Pike- it's become a bit of a code between my husband and I. I've suffered from depression & anxiety in the past, and still battle anxiety. When something comes at me that triggers my anxiety I often text him simply ' I want to move to a lighthouse. This lets him know that I'm struggling, and the truth is, he is my lighthouse, every time.

Moving from Campus Village to The Regency? DO NOT DO IT!
Terrible front desk help. Uncaring, inexperienced managers.
Some newer "studios" are not even up to building code. Which we would have known, but they would not let us see even a model before signing the lease.
It was FILTHY when we moved in, including a bath room that was so disgusting we had to clean it before using it.
Drawers had old food in them.
Antiquated window Air Conditioners that are so loud you have to shut them off to sleep.
Now that we have decided to move, they are refusing to refund any deposits, un-used meal plans, etc.
Product or Service Mentioned: Regency Student Housing Facility.
Reason of review: Your sub-par facility is what it is, but you then robbing us for leaving is in-explainable!.
Monetary Loss: $2000.
Preferred solution: Full refund.
I didn't like: Policies, Misleading and unhelpful.

Plight of the Fortune Tellers: Why We Need to Manage Financial Risk Differently
A Hardback edition by Riccardo Rebonato in English and English (Sep 17, 2007)

Product Description
Today's top financial-risk professionals have come to rely on ever-more sophisticated mathematics in their attempts to come to grips with financial risk. But this excessive reliance on quantitative precision is misleading--and it puts us all at risk. This is the case that Riccardo Rebonato makes in Plight of the Fortune Tellers--and coming from someone who is both an experienced market professional and an academic, this heresy is worth listening to.
Rebonato forcefully argues that we must restore genuine decision making to our financial planning, and he shows us how to do it using probability, experimental psychology, and decision theory. This is the only way to effectively manage financial risk in a manner congruent with how human beings actually react to chance. Rebonato challenges us to rethink the standard wisdom about probability in financial-risk management. Risk managers have become obsessed with measuring risk and believe that these quantitative results by themselves can guide sound financial choices--but they can't. In this book, Rebonato offers a radical yet surprisingly commonsense solution, one that seeks to remind us that managing risk comes down to real people making decisions under uncertainty.
Plight of the Fortune Tellers is not only a book for the decision makers of Wall Street, it's a must-read for anyone concerned about how today's financial markets are run. The stakes have never been higher--can you risk it?

Diverting Road Blocks
A popular video making its round on You Tube is that of a college baseball player making what looks to be an impossible tag of the home plate. This baseball player obviously must moonlight as a gymnast because when his objective was blocked by the catcher, the player took an amazing leap, flying over the catcher's head and tagging home plate with a show-stopping hand spring. This video just goes to show you that with a little will and determination, the impossible becomes, well, possible.
I've witnessed our staff of talented professionals perform like feats here at our full-service advertising agency, but instead of a catcher being an obstacle, roadblocks consist of developmental challenges. Just as this limber baseball player found a way to his objective, DDA's custom programmers, flash animators, and graphic designers keep the momentum of productivity moving by never saying "no". Instead, we find a new path to arrive at the expected end result. Whether we are developing a complex medical animation for a virtual elearning simulation or a complex ecommerce destination full of interactive features, know our commitment is steadfast and our team of dedicated professionals will go above and beyond the expected, short of defying gravity, to meet and exceed client expectations.

It has taken me until now to realise I have an issue with a sheet I am working on.
I have a template that I am adapting and I keep altering it every day, but despite my pressing save....it isn't saving.
Every morning I open it again and it's right as it was when I first save it to change the name.
This is most frustrating, please advise.
Kind Regards,
- JanAnswered on March 12, 2015 at 10:37 AM
Hello there,
I understand your frustration about the issue you're having. You said that the changes you made are not reflecting or not saving right?
The possible reasons why would this happen are the following:
1. Form builder is open on multiple tabs/ windows or multiple browsers.
2. Errors in saving the form.
3. The user is not logged in to their JotForm account or probably got logged out.
Please take note that these are only possible reasons. You can use the Form Revision tool to revert back the changes. You can also clear your browser cache.
Let us know if you're still having issues with saving the form.
Thank you for your patience.
- vseaAnswered on May 27, 2016 at 02:13 PM
Yeah I keep running into the problem too. I keep making changes to my emails yet JotForm keeps reverting back to the original. I dont have multiple tabs open. I am logged into my account. I even made sure to click save/ check to make sure it saved- then when I had a client test the form... the changes reverted back...VERY FRUSTRATING and made me look like an idiot!!! I was thinking about upgrading my account but this problem has changed my mind.
- KadeJMAnswered on May 27, 2016 at 03:04 PM
Hmm strange. We haven't really had any reports about saving and reverted issues lately that I'm aware of for such.
Could you please tell us what OS and Browser|Browser Version you are using that this problem occurs in so we can investigate?
As far as I know I cannot replicate this currently on my end.
Something like this could potentially occur if you are using outdated hardware or software such as javascript not being kept up-to-date as an example which could break your form's functionalities.
Please try using a different browser to see if that makes any difference and let us know.
