San Diego is famous for its warm climate, so why not indulge yourself by having your wedding day photography session in a balmy city that also contains some of the region's most renowned military wedding locations? For the sake of driving convenience, we recommend that you begin your wedding photography session in Fallbrook at the gorgeous Arbor Terrace inside the Grand Tradition Estate. Have your wedding photographer assemble the bridal party on the verdant lawn or beside the beautiful brick and marble fountain in front of the estate. Your photographer can then capture some intimate moments between bride and groom as they stroll around the terrace or embrace next to the lake. The estate's vibrant gardens and exotic waterfalls are also fair game for shots of the happy couple. Arrange for your limo driver to pick up the bridal party at the front gate and in twenty minutes you will arrive at the luxurious Los Willows Garden Estate. Another popular location for military weddings, San Diego treasure contains plenty of cozy little chapels and arches for some private moments. Your wedding photographer can gather the bridal party around the bride and groom as they take center stage on the deck that protrudes into the water. The adventurous couple can even take a chauffeured boat ride across the lake or have a horse-drawn carriage take them around the estate. Both will make for some great photographs and either choice will serve as the grandest of entrances if you choose to have your military wedding here!
Only a few minutes away you will find the Pala Mesa Golf Resort, which includes a plethora of spots for your wedding photography session. This charming resort's many potential photography locations include colorful flower gardens and picturesque waterfalls that will leave you breathless. The destination's stunning mountain views can serve as a spectacular backdrop for a portrait of the bride and groom and the elegant staircases inside the resort will be perfect to arrange the bridal party along. There is so much to explore at this renowned military wedding location, take care to make it back in time for the ceremony! This itinerary is just a start to your wedding experience and any of these gorgeous locations will make for an unforgettable day.
The Mission Valley area near Station Miramar offers a variety of gorgeous locations for a San Diego military wedding. Start your wedding photography session at San Diego State University, whose campus contains plenty of beautiful architecture that will make for a great photo shoot. Have your wedding photographer situate the bridal party on the main Courtyard, either on its large green lawns or among the black marble benches. You can then walk over toward Hepner Hall, whose mission-style tower and brick archways will provide a perfect backdrop for a portrait of the military couple. Within short walking distance you'll find the vibrant Mediterranean Garden, as well as Scripps Cottage, which contains a miniature bridge that crosses over a tranquil little pond. After you've finished your photography session at the university, take a short limousine ride over to the lovely Mission Basilica. Once you arrive at California's first mission, your wedding photographer can assemble a photo of the bridal party on the red brick walkway leading to the entrance. The pure white mission walls and the dark wooden gate will work beautifully as backdrop. The mission's side porch, with its simple immaculate columns and rustic benches, is also a great place to assemble a portrait of the bridal party or of just the bride and groom. The exterior of this stunning structure also offers a set of stoic white arches under which your wedding photographer can pose the happy couple.
The final destination on your wedding photography itinerary will be the Admiral Baker Golf Course, a popular choice for military weddings located only a few miles away from Miramar Station.

What does a handyman do?
A handyman is a skilled laborer who provides basic home repairs. Anyone can call themselves a handyman, although most who do so are skilled with repairs and home projects. Reading reviews is a good way to determine their fitness for your job. The tasks a handyman can perform include assembling furniture, painting interiors and exteriors, repairing fences, repairing broken doors or replacing trim, hanging lights, hooking up appliances, and much more. Handymen may have flat fees for certain services, or charge an hourly rate. Handyman rates are often lower than those of a contractor, as they don't have the same specialization. Some states have no limit on the work a handyman can perform, while others do. For example, California's Building and Professions Code section 7048 (small operations) permits handymen to provide work similar to that of a contractor (floor installation, painting, etc.) provided the total cost of labor and materials does not exceed $500. A handyman is a great resource for minor home repairs at a lower cost than a licensed contractor, but for more complex projects, it pays to hire a specialized contractor. Fore more, check out our tips for smart hiring on Thumbtack.
How do you find a good handyman?
Finding a good handyman can change your life. Within days, the endless list of insurmountable tasks that were either out of your skill range or impossible to fit into your busy schedule can be completed. If you know you want help but aren't sure how to hire the right pro, ask these questions to find the right fit:
- What is your work experience? If you are putting in a tile backsplash, you want someone experienced with the task, not someone who generally does painting and junk removal.
- How much do you charge? Handymen often charge hourly rates that vary based on the complexity of the task they're hired to do, as well as flat rates for standard jobs. Be clear about what they'll charge before you hire them.
- On that note, discuss payment details. It's wise not to pay all the money up front, especially for larger projects. You may be able to pay a deposit for materials and pay the remainder upon project completion.
- How long will the job take you to complete? If the handyman is as busy as you are and a fence repair is going to take months, you should probably find another qualified handyman for the job.
Read client reviews and follow up with references to make sure you're choosing the right handyman for your projects. For more, check out our tips for smart hiring on Thumbtack.
What does a property management company do?
Property management companies manage the rental of residential homes, apartments, condos, commercial spaces and retail spaces. Property managers can oversee just a single unit or many properties, whether those sites are inhabited full-time or are vacation rentals. A property management company helps a property owner or landlord find tenants; collects rent; takes care of accounting, property maintenance and repairs; handles on-site management; and manages vacation rental check-in and checkout tasks. Although many property owners or landlords successfully manage their own rental real estate, a property management company can help you handle tenant issues and maintenance problems, especially if you are not located in the same city or state. Most property management companies deal with tenants directly, and their tasks include:
- Marketing the rental property
- Collecting rent
- Handling repair problems
- Responding to tenant complaints
- Evicting tenants
A property management company may be a good choice for property owners who have several investment properties, live far away from the rental property, or don't have time for hands-on management.
Do property managers need to be licensed?
The licensing requirements for property managers vary from state to state, but many states require property managers to have a real estate broker's license and in some cases be a legal resident of a state. Property management may not be specified in a state real estate statute, but according to the Institute of Real Estate Management their activities may include advertising the availability of a rental property, discussing a property management agreement with an owner, negotiating leases, showing a rental property and collecting rents.
Can a handyman do plumbing?
In some states, a handyman can provide plumbing services, but it may be in your best interest to call a plumber, particularly for issues more major than unclogging a drain or attaching a new sink. Hiring a plumber is important because mishandling your water and gas lines has the potential to do great damage to your home, your family's health, or even the safety of your neighborhood. A handyman is not legally required to have any training or licensing in plumbing matters, while a licensed plumber has undergone years of education and on-the-job training. In some cases, homeowners insurance won't cover damage caused by plumbing repair done by an unlicensed handyman.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, most plumbers learn their trade through a four- or five-year apprenticeship with 2,000 hours of paid on-the-job training. They also receive classroom education including "safety, local plumbing codes and regulations, and blueprint reading. They also study mathematics, applied physics, and chemistry. After completing an apprenticeship program, plumbers … are considered to be journey workers, qualifying them to perform duties on their own," according to the DOL. Licensed plumbers should do continuing education to keep abreast of safety and technology changes. Poor plumbing can lead to sewage backups, a flooded home or even natural gas leaks, so it's best to leave it in the hands of a specialized professional.

(Reuters) - McDonald's Corp on Monday reported better-than-expected global sales at established restaurants for January as gains in Europe and China helped the company offset weak numbers in United States, where customers remained cautious in their spending.
McDonald's, the world's biggest restaurant chain by revenue, said worldwide sales at restaurants open at least 13 months rose 1.2 percent last month. That was above the analysts' average estimate of a rise of 0.7 percent, according to Consensus Metrix.
But in the United States, same-restaurant sales, a closely watched gauge of performance, fell 3.3 percent, a deeper decline than the 1.6 percent drop that analysts expected.
The company blamed the frigid cold and snow that hit large parts of the country, but analysts said McDonald's U.S. patrons continue to be pinched by the slow U.S. economy.
"It's the same story: the mid-to-low income consumer continues to be frugal," said Edward Jones analyst Jack Russo.
McDonald's fared better elsewhere. Sales rose 2 percent in Europe, which edges out the United States as its biggest revenue market, and were up 5.4 percent in the Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa (APMEA) region, helped by growth in China.
France and Britain were standout markets in Europe, while Germany was a laggard.
Analysts expected Europe to be up 1.3 percent and for APMEA to rise 2 percent.
McDonald's, which is grappling with tougher competition and a lackluster global economy, warned last month that January sales would be weak.
McDonald's shares fell 15 cents to $95.77 in early trading on the NYSE.

Object-oriented programming (OO) applies to software development using the standard science and engineering practice of identifying patterns and defining a classification system describing those patterns. Classification systems and design patterns enable engineers and scientists to make sense of complex systems and to reuse efforts by others. By applying classification systems and design patterns to programming, the OO approach improves your ability to manage software complexity—particularly important when developing and maintaining large applications and data structures.
This article demonstrates the use of object-oriented techniques in the MATLAB language to implement a typical technical application. The examples use features available in MATLAB 7.6, part of Release 2008a.
Application Example: Analyzing Sensor Array Data
A sensor array (Figure 1) is a collection of sensors, often arranged in a line, that is used to sample a medium such as air, water, or the ground for radar, sonar, cellular communications, and other applications. By collecting time samples from multiple points in space, you can extract additional information from the medium being sampled.
Our application uses a sensor array to determine the direction of arrival (DOA) of multiple distant electromagnetic sources, such as radio beacons and radar transmitters. In this particular scenario, we will attempt to estimate the angles θ1 and θ2 of the two sources relative to the direction in which the sensor array is pointing.
Reviewing Data Items and Operations
We will begin by reviewing the data items to represent and the operations to implement. As with most applications, many pieces of data must be stored and tracked to perform the required operations. We need to represent the following data:
- Numbers of sensors and samples
- Sampled sensor data
- Sensor sample rate
- Sensor spacing
- Wavelength of distant sources
- Speed of wave
- Sensor data set name or description
We will use a simple FFT-based technique to estimate the DOA of the sources. This technique can be broken down into parts and implemented as a collection of operations. A small number of utility operations needs to be implemented to help with development work. For example, we must:
- Create the data set from synthetic data or acquired live data
- Inspect and modify data set values and parameters
- Plot the sample data to help with interpretation and validation
- Calculate and plot the power spectrum of the data set (by simple magnitude squared of the FFT method)
- Find the peaks of the power spectrum to estimate direction of arrival of the sources
We can now determine what to represent with class properties and what to implement with class methods.
Representing Data with Class Properties
We begin by defining a class to describe the sensor array. This initial representation contains only the data items, representing them as class properties.
You define a class in MATLAB with a class definition file, which contains blocks of code, denoted by keywords and end statements that describe different aspects of the class. The definition file shown in Figure 2 describes a class
sads (for sensor array data set), with all the data items that we need to represent listed in a properties block.
Creating an Object and Accessing Properties
To create an object or instance of the class that we defined, we use the statement
To set the value of a property, we specify its name just like fields of a structure with
We can display the object, seeing all the available properties and current values, by typing its name.
s = sads properties: NumSensors: 16 NumSamples: [] Data: [] SampleRate: [] Spacing: [] Wavelength: [] c: 300000000 Name: [] list of methods
All the properties except
NumSensors and
c are still empty. The data set can now be identified as a
sads object using the class and
isa functions and the
whos command, something that is not possible with structures.
>> class(s) ans = sads
The ability to identify the class of a variable is important to users who create code to operate on the data set, as it lets them determine the available data items to be accessed and operations that can be legally performed.
Error Checking
If you use structures to represent your data, you could add a new field name at any time simply by specifying a new field name and assigning it a value. This capability is particularly convenient when you are experimenting with and prototyping algorithms. However, if you misspell a field name, a new field will be added silently, which might cause an error later that is difficult to diagnose.
Unlike structures, you cannot arbitrarily add a new property to an object simply by specifying a new property name and assigning it a value. If you misspell an object property name, MATLAB immediately issues an error. This additional level of error checking is useful when the object is being accessed by users who are less familiar with it than the author, common during the development of a large application.
Controlling Access to Data
Classes give you great control over property access. For example, they let you prohibit modification of a property, hide a property, or cause it to be calculated dynamically. You control access to properties by specifying property attributes in the class definition file. We expand on the class definition file in Figure 2 by dividing the current list of properties into multiple property blocks, each with unique property attributes:
Constant, and
Dependent (Figure 3).
You prohibit modification of a property by setting the Constant attribute. In our example, we will set the speed of light property
c to be constant. Because constant properties do not change, they can be accessed simply by referencing the class name.
>> sads.c ans = 300000000
You make a property read-only by setting the
SetAccess attribute to private. You can make a property visible only to the methods operating on it by setting the
GetAccess attribute to private, as we will do with the
Wavelength property.
You can freely change the names or characteristics of a private property without affecting users of the object. This "black box" approach to defining a piece of software, known as encapsulation, prevents the user of the object from becoming dependent on an implementation detail or characteristic that could change and break their code.
You specify that a property is calculated only when asked for by setting its
Dependent attribute.
You then specify a get method that is automatically called when the property is accessed. See the "Accessing Properties with Get and Set Methods" section of this article for details on how to specify class methods. In our application, we set the
NumSensors and
NumSamples properties to be dependent.
Implementing Operations with Class Methods
Methods, or the operations that can be performed on the object, are specified as a list of functions in a methods block. A class can contain many types of methods, each fulfilling a different purpose, each specified differently. The following section describes a number of these types of methods.
We will add a methods block to the
sads definition file and add each new method inside this block (Figure 4).
Specifying a Constructor Method
In our example, we will specify a constructor method that lets the user provide parameters to be used in the creation of the object. The constructor method often performs data initialization and validation. The object is now created with
>>s=sads(Data, Wavelength, SampleRate, Spacing, Name);
Implementing Application-Specific Methods
We will add several methods to implement application-specific operations to be performed on the data set. Most methods take the object as an input argument (for example,
obj) and access the object properties by referencing this variable (for example,
NumSamples), as in this method:
function [mags,fflip]=magfft(obj, zpt)mag=zeros(obj.NumSamples, zpt); ... end
Although it requires additional syntax, referencing properties via the object variable can help differentiate them from local function variables, like
mag above.
Calling Methods
Methods are called just like functions, with the object(s) passed in as one of the arguments. We call the method that performs the main operation of estimating the sources' DOA.
>>angles=doa(s) angles = -10.1642 18.9953
The DOA angles approximate the true locations of the sources shown in Figure 1, which are -10° and 20°.
Accessing Properties with Get and Set Methods
You can validate properties or implement dependent properties, as mentioned earlier, by specifying associated set and get methods. Here is the get method for the
NumSensors property.
function NumSensors=get.NumSensors(obj) NumSensors=size(obj.Data,2); end
Get and set methods are called automatically when properties are accessed, for example with
Specifying Methods for Existing MATLAB Functions with Overloading
Overloading lets you redefine existing MATLAB functions to work on your object by providing a function with that name in your list of methods. You can also overload operators and even indexing by using methods with special names. In our application we will include an overloaded plot method, providing a function to visualize the data set that is familiar to many MATLAB users (Figure 5).
This customized plot method represents the information in the most appropriate way for this data set, annotating it with all available information. This plot method is executed only on objects for which it has been defined, a much more robust approach than manipulating the order of directories in the path to control which of the multiple functions with the same name are called.
Developing the Application Further
The class that we created in this example represents our sensor array data set and provides several operations that we can use to analyze the data, including the main direction-finding operation. We can use this class to evaluate the performance of the FFT-based technique in different scenarios.
We could expand the application using additional OO techniques. For example, we could do the following:
- Define subclasses of existing classes (re-using a definition of a broader category to define a more specific subcategory) with inheritance
- Specify static methods, letting us define an operation for the class as a whole
- Use handle classes with reference behavior, enabling us to make data structures like linked lists or work with a large data set without copying it
- Define events and listeners, letting us monitor object properties or actions
These techniques enhance our ability to manage complexity by enabling us to further define relationships and behavior in the application.
Because it was built using OO techniques, the application is now robust enough for others to use and maintain and can be integrated with related applications throughout an organization.
The Language of Object-Oriented Programming
When creating software applications, the categories you could represent include physical objects, such as a car or an organism; a virtual entity, such as a financial market; or information, such as a set of test results. In object-oriented programming, these categories are represented as classes. Data elements, or states, are represented as class properties and operations are implemented as class methods.
An object is an instance of a class—when a program executes, the object is created based on its class and behaves in the way defined by the class. The values stored in MATLAB variables all belong to a class. These values include not only what you might normally consider objects, such as a time series or state space object, but also simple doubles.

Christmas crackers or bon-bons are a key pleasure in British Christmas and Commonwealth celebrations. In North Pole Village, these are made using brass hand machines at this factory and shop. Enter into the sales room, where you can view and even test some of the crackers, near a warm fireplace and a beautiful Christmas tree. The side room is that actual factory, and the cracker makers even have bedrooms upstairs.
Includes a base Realistic Texture Set, plus an additional Christmas Theme Texture Set that matches the red, white and yellow themes found in all North Pole Village models. Also includes a removable snow cap - create snowy or spring scenes using this model.
Toon Santa's Christmas Village 2011 R2 is a set of beautiful 3D Christmas holiday models from Meshbox Design. The Christmas Village series is an annual release product event that began in 2006, adding additional models to the growing North Pole village of Toon Santa. Create new, original North Pole village scenes in 3D, using 3D Studio MAX, Mirye Software Shade, e-on software Vue, Bryce, Smith Micro Poser or DAZ 3D's Daz Studio. The special theme release for 2011 is Father Christmas, with buildings created with a British style and based in a part of North Pole Village where humans are allowed to visit.
Toon Santa is the lovable 3D Santa Claus created in love and respect for holiday traditions. If you grew up in the 70's in North America, you probably spent some quality hours in December watching the Rankin/Bass stop motion classics such as the Christmas Television Favorites Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and a Year without a Santa Claus (and a selection of more religious programming). Toon Santa was designed to capture the pure and simple joy of that early holiday programming. Toon Santa was originally designed in 2002. In 2011, Toon Santa '11 was completely recreated from scratch based on the free 3D model Chunk(tm) available for free download from toonpeople.com.
Toon Santa plays a role in support of NORAD TRACKS SANTA, the NORAD website devoted to tracking Santa Claus, with Meshbox Design as corporate contributor to the multinational project located at http://www.noradsanta.org.

ARLINGTON, VA ‐ Cooperatives Working Together (CWT) has accepted 11 requests for export
assistance from DFA,, Darigold and United Dairymen of Arizona to sell a total of 775 metric tons
(1.709 million pounds) of Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese to customers in Asia, South
America, the Middle East, North Africa and South Pacific. The product will be delivered June
through November 2012.
In 2012, CWT has assisted member cooperatives in making export sales of Cheddar, Monterey
Jack and Gouda cheese totaling 61.7 million pounds and butter and AMF totaling 45.2 million
pounds to 32 countries on four continents. On a butterfat basis, the milk equivalent of these
exports is 1.550 billion pounds, or the same as the annual milk production of 73,800 cows.
Assisting CWT members through the Export Assistance program positively impacts producer
milk prices in the short‐term by reducing inventories that overhang the market and depress
cheese and butter prices. In the long‐term, CWT's Export Assistance program helps member
cooperatives gain and maintain market share, thus expanding the demand for U.S. dairy
products and the farm milk that produces them.

The joke going around the 34th America's Cup this morning likened the media center to Hotel California, you can check in but you can never check out. While scribes, photogs and TV folk from around the world scramble daily to change their departure plans, today's postponement of Race 14 offers a chance to take stock of where the match stands.
On the scoreboard its simple: Emirates Team New Zealand needs one win, one bloody win to capture the America's Cup. ORACLE TEAM USA needs six wins to retain the trophy it won in 2010. Back on Sept. 9, the first scheduled off day of the 34th America's Cup, we suggested that the longer the series dragged out the better it was for the defender, and that's proving true.
RELATED STORY: Crazy, compelling racing thrills fans
ORACLE TEAM USA skipper Jimmy Spithill admitted that Emirates Team New Zealand had a speed advantage at the beginning of the match, particularly upwind, but the defender seems to have overcome that advantage. How? There are two converging scenarios.
First, the defender went to school on the Kiwis, who were far ahead in crew maneuvers and outright speed when the match started. The discrepancy between the teams makes one wonder what the defender was doing for four months in its two-boat testing, but that point is moot now. The challenger and defender are dead even in boatspeed, with the edge going to the lead boat, the lead dog. It's always good to be the lead dog because you can chose your points on the racecourse to cover or sail for a wind shift.
The defender has also smoothed out its crew maneuvers and tactics, and that can be attributed to bringing Ben Ainslie aboard and also going to school on the challenger's boathandling and tactics. ORACLE TEAM USA bottomed out at 16.8 knots in a tack in Race 12. Conversely, the Kiwis bottomed out at 13.6 knots in a tack. That's a significant difference in a maneuver, aided by the handling of the daggerfoils.
ORACLE TEAM USA's jump in boatspeed can't all be attributed to watching tape of its rival. The AC72 relies on the wing sail to harness the wind and the hydrofoils to propel it through the water. As Artemis Racing design team member Adam May noted last month, "If you want to change the mode of the boat in any way, the foils are the big-ticket item." ORACLE TEAM USA looks to have a real speed advantage when foiling upwind, as evidenced by the 32 knots boatspeed in 16 knots of wind in Thursday's Race 12 win. Dockside scuttlebutt suggests the team has changed the angle of attack of the foils and also changed the technique of the wing trim.
RELATED STORY: Kiwis lie in wait as ORACLE TEAM USA tries to find the answer
Dockside scuttlebutt also suggests that the Kiwis have sapped every bit of speed possible from their AC72, but that hasn't stopped them from looking for more. This week alone the Kiwis have alternately chopped down the fairings on the front crossbeam, added them back the next day and then chopped them down again yesterday.
"At the end of the day there's a set of forces acting on the boat," said Kiwi designer Nick Holroyd. "Any time you generate lift there's a certain amount of drag that comes with it. We're just looking at those equations and how to generate those forces most efficiently."
A look at the match stats reveals some interesting numbers. Emirates Team New Zealand has posted the fastest outright speed, 47.02 knots in Race 8, and ORACLE TEAM USA has posted the fastest elapsed time, 21 minutes and 53 seconds, in Race 9 on a 10.02-nautical-mile course. (Note: The course length has varied slightly from race to race, ranging from 9.71 to 10.27 nautical miles.)
Races 4, 10 and 11 rank in the top 10 of closest finishes in America's Cup Match history, and tomorrow the match will tie the 2003 America's Cup for longest in history at 16 days.
As time marches on, Emirates Team New Zealand skipper Dean Barker is putting forth a calm front. He and tactician Ray Davies kept reminding everyone at Friday's press conference that the odds are in their favor to win the America's Cup; needing just one win to the defender's six. But if the match extends much longer, the folks at Emirates Team New Zealand might feel like they've checked into Hotel California.

Like these guys.
Thank you, Sarah!
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
My phone pocket dials 911 with embarrassing frequency. Like, at least once a week, sometimes multiple times in a day. The genius who designed the thing made it so that when the lock is on (so that you have to enter a passcode to turn the phone on), there's still an "emergency" button that can be pressed without the correct code. Unfortunately this emergency button is freaking huge and seems to be in the perfect position to get hit ALL THE TIME, no matter where I put the phone.
I don't know why they didn't make it so you hit the emergency button and THEN dial 911 manually. Instead, hitting it automatically dials 911.
I have to have a passcode on my phone for work reasons, so there's really no solution, barring getting a new phone. I even tried putting the phone in a case, which felt very 1995... Still pocket dialed 911.
I guess I better just keep myself on the straight-and-narrow...
Gah! We are Central New York! NOT Upstate! the whole goddamn state does not revolve around the stupid city making everything that isn't the city "upstate" *pet peeve*
Also.. loved reading that in the newspaper the other day :) hilarious... unsurprisingly, the three suspects were related...

A little bit about who we are, what we do, and who you'll be working with
Kevin has been interested in web design and development every since grade ten after an information technology class offered through high school. Having built several web sites in his early days, it is still something he is passionate about after all this time.
Originally born in Prince Albert, SK, Kevin has called Saskatoon home for 11 years. He loves Saskatoon and loves how close it is to the family cabin at Turtle Lake.
Kevin enjoys all types of music, reading, and watching the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
Lee has always been interested in technology, even from a young age. He first became fascinated when his family bought an Amiga computer back in 1984. The Amiga was an incredible machine and Lee spent his time learning how the hardware components worked with each other.
Having a detailed eye for aesthetics, design, and user-interface, Lee tests our projects to give his opinion on how they look, function, and work. His advice helps us provide a great user experience to match the great code running underneath the hood.
Lee is originally from a small town in Saskatchewan called Leroy. Moving here is 2000, Lee likes living in Saskatoon. In his spare time, Lee enjoys home renovation projects, reading about tech trends and hardware, and hanging out with his dogs.
Lee is a sub-contractor for Lime Communications.
Dawn loves photography. Being a hobby and career for her, she has been doing it since 2001. She was introduced to photography through a class offered during high school and immediately fell in love with capturing those perfect moments and scenery.
Dawn also runs her own photography business, self titled 'Dawn Stranden Photography' and a mobile photobooth business called 'Freezeframez Photo Booth' (we built her website - see it here).
Dawn enjoys spending time with her family and friends, planning and renovating her home, and attending a lot of the Saskatoon events and festivals.
Dawn is a sub-contractor for Lime Communications.
A few words from our clients
Not being an internet wizard, Kevin simplified things for me to better understand, listened to my opinions, gave corrective criticism to better my ideas, and always had my best interests in mind – even if that meant a little extra work. Since the project was completed, he is always checking in now and then to see if changes are needed.
Kevin Pryce has almost become an official member of our team – taking on our website was an ambitious undertaking! His professionalism and meticulous care in achieving results has been a great asset to our project. We asked… and Kevin delivered – in both English and French! Not only are we pleased with the aesthetic look and functionality of our new site but we love how easy it is to maintain. Thank you to Lime Communications! You did a great job and we love getting positive comments on our site!
We would recommend Kevin to anyone wanting a website. He is professional from the first meeting, he listens to your website vision, offers suggestions without being pushy, implements your vision, then fine tunes it. Kevin's after sales service is most impressive.
I love the website and the communication that Lime follows up with. It's been very easy to navigate and figure out. (For clients and us!)
Kevin was integral to launching my new business! Website success: Simple+Clean+Modern x Client Service = Lime Communications.
It was a pleasure from start to finish to work with Kevin! From the first phone call I could feel this was going to work out great and become a long time business partner for my company. The website he designed exceeded my expectations and he always took the time to explain things to me that I wasn't understanding. The web care plan he offers also gives me peace of mind knowing my site is safe. Will be recommending him to everyone I can since he does great work! Thanks Kevin

Living a Balanced Life with Lupus
by Pamela Jones, MA
A lupus diagnosis can leave you reeling. Initially, it may be a relief to have a name for the fatigue and pain you have, but you may be wondering what happens next. Chronic diseases need a lifetime of care.
It will impact not only your health but your lifestyle as well. Lupus can create physical changes, mental health challenges, and affect your personal relationships. It may be frustrating to feel limits and setbacks, but know that there is a lot you can do to manage lupus.
Lupus is a disease marked by periods of remission with no symptoms, offset by periods of symptom flare-ups. A flare-up is an unwelcome and often frustrating event. Symptoms will vary from person to person. But for each individual, the flare-ups may be similar each time. They may include:
You will most likely be able to recognize signs that a flare-up is on the way and even understand the triggers. Triggers can be from poor diet, lack of sleep, too much stress, and exposure to colds, the flu or sunlight. You cannot completely control all flare-ups, but you can better understand them. Keep a journal when flare-ups start. Track the symptoms and triggers. The more you know about the flare-ups the better you can decrease their intensity or frequency.
Physical Disabilities
Most people with lupus will have joint and muscle pain. At times the pain may be disabling. People with lupus are also more prone to osteoporosis and the bone fractures associated with it. Some of the bone damage may be due to medications. Follow your doctor's instructions for medication and supplements to decrease bone loss as much as possible.
It may seem like rest is best for joints and bone problems, but this can make the situation worse. Keeping physically active can help decrease the strain on joints and muscles and make bones stronger. It is best to take into account your current symptoms when developing an activity program. Fortunately, there are many ways to be active.
Back off of your routine during flare-ups. Work with physical or occupational therapists to address problems that are interfering with your everyday life.
Skin Changes
Skin rashes and lesions are a common symptom of lupus. In most cases, it is due to the disease itself, but medications may also make your skin more vulnerable. Precautions need to be made to protect your skin. For optimal skin health:
Sometimes rashes cannot be prevented. Skin changes can have an emotional impact because of the highly visible nature. If you feel that your rashes or sores are interfering with your life, talk to your doctor.
Mental Health
It is common for anyone managing a chronic illness to have bouts of depression. In addition, some of the necessary lupus medication can cause anxiety, personality and mood changes, forgetfulness, and other psychological problems. Some neuropsychiatric problems, such as those listed in a previous section, are caused by lupus, not with the stress of having it.
Stress can also make you more prone to fatigue and illness. While it may be in your nature to do it all, you may need to delegate some of your tasks or let them go. A busy schedule can decrease your sleep, cause poor nutrition habits, and leave little time to catch your breath. This is a perfect recipe for a flare-up. Remember, the healthier you are, the better you will be to do the things you want to do.
Medical Shuffle
There is a lot of information to absorb about your disease, steps for management, and medical care. Become a partner with your doctor. Keep an open dialogue about your lupus management. Open and honest communication can help you both create the best treatment plan for you.
Regular visits to your doctor when you are healthy may help find problems before they start. If you only see your doctor for emergency situations, you will always be playing catch-up. Preventive care, such as immunizations, will help ward off infections like the flu which can trigger flare-ups. Maintenance of your overall health will help you feel well and may prevent more serious complications from developing.
Personal Relationships
Managing a chronic disease can be difficult for you, your friends, and family. Common lupus symptoms like fatigue and joint pain are not visible to others. Some may have a hard time understanding how lupus is affecting you. Help your friends and family understand the disease process so that they may be able to participate in your healthy lifestyle. Use brochures, lupus websites, or other written material to explain the disease process to them.
Your lifestyle may change now and during future periods. Keep communication open with family and friends as changing responsibilities and roles may affect them as well. Honest communication will help dispel fears, confusion, and frustration for you and your family.
Find support groups that fit your needs. The people that most understand what you are going through are going through the same thing. A lupus support group can provide emotional support and coping success stories.
The good news is that most people with lupus can maintain a high quality of life. Work to make changes in line with your goals. The exact path of the disease is not always predictable despite best efforts. Know that future plans may need to be adjusted. Make the choices that are right for you, leave flexibility in your plans, and communicate openly.

Klopp plays down Club World Cup importance
Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has played down the FIFA Club World Cup as rivals Bayern Munich prepare to contest the final.
Bayern are through to Saturday's showpiece and will face Raja Casablanca, who are only involved in the competition as a representative of host nation Morocco.
And asked whether he would be happy to see Pep Guardiola's men lift the trophy, Klopp insisted he would not be donning a Bayern shirt for the occasion.
"Well, if we are honest, if Bayern wins, I would really like it," he joked. "But its not that I'm sitting in front of the TV on Saturday evening and wearing Bayern things.
"I have seen the game against the Chinese team (Guangzhou Evergrande). OK, but they won another title (the AFC Champions League).
"But now you're facing Casablanca. If Humphrey Bogart doesn't play - that's the last time I heard about Casablanca.
"Maybe some day it (the competition) will be of a higher value."
Dortmund welcome Hertha Berlin to Signal Iduna Park on Saturday, and Klopp revealed that he has fresh concerns for Sebastian Kehl and Jakub Blaszczykowski, who were forced to withdraw from training on Thursday.
"Marcel Schmelzer was able to train properly without any problems, the full week, he added.
"Ilkay Gundogan could do a lot as well alone and with the team. He is not at 100 per cent yet, but it's positive news.
"Sven Bender isn't training yet, so he is a strong doubt for Saturday. Other than that Sebastian Kehl and Jakoub Blaszczykowski stopped training. I'm not sure if it was injury or just something harmless. Both will rest for today."

Angels may alter rotation for matchups
ANAHEIM -- With two off-days in the next six days, the Angels have a rare chance to shift their rotation, an opportunity manager Mike Scioscia said the Angels would probably capitalize on.
"There will be some things we're going to look at," Scioscia said. "We're going to see how guys come out of [their next starts], we'll have the opportunity to do some things."
Prior to Saturday's 19-inning marathon, the Angels were ready to trot out Matt Shoemaker and C.J. Wilson against the Phillies on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. But Shoemaker threw three innings of emergency relief Saturday to earn the win and was scratched from Tuesday's start.
Scioscia said Wilson would move up to take Shoemaker's spot. He did not announce a Wednesday starter, though it could be Shoemaker or Jered Weaver.
The two-game series against Philadelphia is sandwiched around off-days, the Angels' last of August. The club will play 17 straight days after Thursday's respite, including seven games against division-leading Oakland.
Will Scioscia line up his rotation to prepare for crucial series against the Athletics?
"That is a consideration," Scioscia said.
If the Angels kept their current rotation for the next two weeks, they would send out Hector Santiago, Shoemaker and Wilson at Oakland from Aug. 22-24.
They could, though, reshuffle the order and have Santiago pitch on his normal four days' rest next Friday, which would free up either Garrett Richards or Weaver to pitch against Oakland down the line.
What wasn't a consideration, according to Scioscia, was skipping the struggling Wilson's upcoming turn in the rotation. Scioscia also said bringing back guys on short rest simply to match up against a team was not an option.
"We have a long way to go and we need all five of these guys continuing to throw the ball well," Scioscia said. "If there's a possibility of matching up, you always try to take advantage of it, but that doesn't become the primary focus right now. That's secondary to making sure these guys get what they need and are strong and ready to go."

Marquise Brown, now 20, faces life in prison without the chance of parole after the jury found him guilty Wednesday of first-degree murder by both premeditation and extreme atrocity and cruelty.
As Marquise Brown heard his family crying after a Middlesex Superior Court jury convicted him of the 2009 murder of his friend Tyriffe Lewis on Wednesday, he turned and tried to comfort them.
"I'll be all right," he said after being handcuffed, and while the jury foreman continued to read guilty verdicts for three gun charges.
Brown, now 20, faces life in prison without the chance of parole after the jury found him guilty of first-degree murder by both premeditation and extreme atrocity and cruelty.
The jury of seven women and five men deliberated for just three hours, including lunch, before reaching the verdict.
The swift deliberations came as a surprise to Brown's lawyer, James Budreau.
"I don't understand that," he said. "I think there was a lot of reasonable doubt."
Brown's sentencing hearing is scheduled for Sept. 26.
In Massachusetts, anyone convicted of first-degree murder is typically sentenced to mandatory life in prison without the chance of parole.
However, the US Supreme Court recently ruled that anyone who committed a crime when they were under 18 years of age cannot face a mandatory life sentence. The murder occurred July 20, 2009, when Brown was 17.
A judge could still sentence Brown to life in prison without parole after the sentencing hearing.
Middlesex District Attorney Gerry Leone applauded the verdict.
"The defendant senselessly shot and killed the victim in broad daylight in a public state park," said Leone. "This case is another tragic example of a young person resorting to guns and violence to resolve perceived conflict. We are pleased that the defendant will be held accountable for his actions and that we are able to provide some measure of justice for Tyriffe and his family."
Both Brown's and Lewis' families left court without speaking.
Earlier in the day, both Budreau and prosecutor Christopher Tarrant presented their closing arguments to the jury.
Budreau told the jury that Brown was not the person responsible for shooting Lewis. Rather, he said it was Yessling Gonzalez, a friend of Brown, who is also charged with the murder and awaiting trial.
"Mr. Brown was a witness, a witness to the tragic shooting of Tyriffe Lewis," said Budreau. "There's no evidence that he aided, assisted or shared the same state of mind as Mr. Gonzalez."
Budreau said the prosecutor is relying on what he calls motive evidence. He said Brown was "hammered," and "drunk as a skunk," the night before the slaying when he had a fight with Lewis.
Brown lost that fight and was angry. But, later in the night, the person who actually stole the marijuana he accused Lewis of taking returned it to him, Budreau said. Someone else also returned Brown's money that had been taken. That, Budreau said, dissipated Brown's anger.
"The motive they spent so much time on is completely deflated," he said.
Instead, the following day, the fight was forgotten when Brown, Gonzalez and Lewis got into the car and went to the park, the lawyer argued. Why Gonzalez shot Lewis is not known, but he said Gonzalez had just as much of a motive as Brown did after getting his drugs and money back, Budreau said.
Brown also lied to police about being at the park, and not telling them about the shooting. But, Budreau said, those were the actions of a scared 17-year-old, as well as a young man who was embarrassed that he had to sit in his urine-soaked pants the first time he was questioned by police. A Framingham police officer said Brown urinated in the back of the cruiser on the way to the police station.
"Why does Mr. Brown lie? Why do 17-year-olds lie?" said Budreau. "He saw someone shot and maybe he was a little bit intimidated. There are a lot of 17-year-olds who are going to lie. It doesn't mean there's a consciousness of guilt."
But, Tarrant told the jury, the motive was about more than just drugs.
"The defendant Marquise Brown was disrespected by Tyriffe Lewis," said Tarrant during his closing. "This case isn't about money. It's not about marijuana. It's about embarrassment – embarrassment that he went looking for a fight and he lost."
On June 19, 2009, Brown hosted a party in an apartment at the Countryside Farms Apartments on Boston Post Road in Marlborough. During the party, he accused Lewis of stealing marijuana, and they got into a fight, with Brown being bested by Lewis.
The following day, Brown, Lewis and Gonzalez went to Callahan State Park, where Tarrant said Brown twice shot Lewis – first in the hips to disable him and the second time in the chest, killing him.
"The defendant would like you to believe that he was an innocent bystander," said Tarrant. "I would suggest that position is not supported by the evidence. If (Gonzalez) is the shooter, why is Marquise Brown even there? Why would he bring Marquise? Why would be bring a witness?'
Instead, Brown brought Gonzalez into his plan to kill Lewis because Gonzalez had a car.
"He needed a way to get Tyriffe Lewis to Callahan State Park," Tarrant said.
When he was arrested, Brown told the police he could not be charged with murder and he would beat the charges because, even though they didn't tell him, officers had never found the gun.
"He knows where the gun is and he knows he got rid of it. He knows they don't have the gun and Marquise Brown isn't worried," said Tarrant. "Marquise Brown isn't worried because he doesn't think he can be charged if they don't have the gun. He thinks he's OK."

What is LTG 4G?
LTE 4G is a heavily hyped fast-internet facility that is, on the whole, no use to UK buyers, since the infrastructure isn't in place yet. Telecoms watchdog Ofcom is supposed to be auctioning off chunks of radio spectrum (the 800MHz and 2.6GHz frequencies) that will support the 4G services. This auction had been planned for early 2012, but it has been delayed (partly because the analogue TV signal was using the 800GHz band, and partly because the government has ruled that the networks had to offer 4G over the 800GHz spectrum as it has better reach and will therefore be accessible all over the country).
However, the government has allowed EE (Everything Everywhere) to 'refarm' portions of its 2G spectrum in the 1,800MHz band so that it can offer a 4G service in a handful of cities around the UK. The service hasn't actually launched yet, and as yet we haven't been given a launch date, other than the vague "in a few weeks".
LTE 4G isn't even 4G. The LTE stands for Long Term Evolution and although marketed as 4G, it doesn't meet the technical requirements the 3GPP consortium has adopted for its new standard generation.
Can I get LTE 4G?
There is only one network in the UK that will be offering LTE 4G - new network EE. iPhone customers on Orange and T-Mobile networks (the two networks combining to form EE – formerly known as Everything Everywhere) will start to see the EE symbol on their phones shortly, however this doesn't mean customers are getting the new 4G service. An EE representative told us: "They will only have access to 3G. In order to access 4G they will need to move over to EE. The process will be simple, and all that is required is a new SIM card and EE plan, which can be arranged with our service agents. Customers will not be charged for breaking their contract early, as long as they move to an equivalent priced and length plan on EE."
So, if you want a 4G LTE networked iPhone in the UK you will need to move over to EE and take out a new contract.
And to enjoy 4G you need to be based in London, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, (who will have EE's LTE 4G at launch) or Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Derby, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Hull, Leeds, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Nottingham, Newcastle, Sheffield and Southampton, if you can wait until Christmas.
Should I be bothered about 4G?
EE's LTE 4G technology has a theoretical speed of 100Mbps. However, you should expect a typical average speed of between 8Mbps and 12Mbps. EE said the typical maximum speed and peak speed are 40Mbps and 64Mbps respectively.
Should I wait for the other networks to launch LTE 4G?
Don't buy an iPhone expecting that it will magically work on the UK's 4G network when it does launch. There are actually three versions of the iPhone 5 available around the world; each is equipped to use a different sets of frequencies so that they are compatible with the various 4G networks around the world. Apple includes the 1800MHz band for LTE in two of those iPhone 5 models – which is good news for EE as that's the band they are using. However, there are 41 different bands being used for LTE 4G around the world, compared with 22 bands for 3G technology, and the iPhone won't work with all of them. Crucially, Apple has left two bands – 800MHz and 2.6GHz – out, both of which are critical to LTE service in Europe and the UK. Indeed, 800MHz and 2.6GHz are the two spectrum bands that UK operators will be bidding for in Ofcom's forthcoming 4G auction.
There is a glimmer of hope if you are with 3: EE was forced to sell 2x15MHz of its 1800MHz spectrum to 3 as part of the terms of the merger of T-Mobile and Orange in 2010. However, 3 has not yet announced any plans to launch a 4G network in this band.
What is NFC?
NFC (Near Field Communication) technology is what allows you use your credit card to pay for something just by tapping, the same technology could also allow payment with a mobile phone. The technology is still in the early days, however, and there are a number of security concerns.
Those security concerns didn't stop some from hoping that Apple would turn its famous ability to deliver new technology through great user experience and kick-start the widespread adoption of mobile payments by consumers. Apple recently acquired security firm AuthenTec in a move that some thought might help Apple address the security demands of NFC.
Why is there no NFC in the iPhone 5?
However, Apple's iPhone 5 does not include NFC. Apple Senior Vice President Phil Schiller said that: "Passbook does the kinds of things customer need today." Passbook relies on barcode optical scanning of digital tickets, boarding passes and cash cards, rather than NFC technology.
Does it matter that there is no NFC in the iPhone 5?
It may not matter that Apple didn't include NFC with the iPhone 5. Research by credit card comparison site CreditDonkey.com suggests that consumers aren't ready to abandon their leather wallets for mobile ones yet. In addition, mobile payment experts have said that Apple was right to ignore NFC, given its slow rollout. Aite Group analyst Rick Oglesby noted that only two percent of merchants globally are equipped with NFC-reader terminals, not nearly enough to merit Apple's attention. He said: "Apple would need something really global to make it work."
However, Miles Quitmann, MD of UK-based communications marketing company Proxama disagreed: "NFC is going to progress at a pace without Apple. This could be Apple's loss," he said.
What is HD Voice?
One of the new features coming with the iPhone 5 is HD Voice, unfortunately many will be unable to experience this new technology which requires that both parties have the necessary technology, that they are on the same network, and that the network supports HD Voice.
It might be good to talk, but the reason why talking to someone on the phone is never as good as talking to them in person is that the human voice ranges from 80Hz to 14kHz while traditional telephone calls are only able to achieve audio frequencies in the range of 300Hz to 3.4kHz. HD Voice ups the audio frequency range from 50Hz to 7kHz or higher.
Benefits include: clearer sound quality; easier to distinguish confusing sounds; you should be able to hear faint talkers and understand when everyone is speaking at the same time; it will be easier to understand (and distinguish between) talkers who are using a speakerphone or in the presence of background noise; and there should be less "listener fatigue".
The technology was developed by Nokia and VoiceAge. A few handsets have already been produced supporting HD Voice, including models from Nokia, Samsung, HTC and Sony.
Which UK networks offer HD Voice?
We contacted all the networks in the UK. So far we have had confirmation that EE, Orange and Three (3) will be supporting HD Voice on the iPhone, although T-Mobile claims to be offering HD Voice on its website, probably via its connection with EE and Orange. O2 parent company Telefonica told us it has "no plans for HD voice (WB-AMR) at present".
What's that I head about Apple changing the dock?
One new feature of the iPhone 5 has probably met with more disdain than any other. Despite it's presence enabling Apple to make the iPhone 5 slimmer, and despite the fact that it's the first time Apple has changed the port in a decade, the fact that Apple has ditched the 30-pin connector in favour of the new Lightning port, has left many consumers dismayed. However, it should be noted that this is the first time in a decade that the company has changed the port on it's devices, in the same time arch-enemy Samsung has changed its connector 18 times.
Will the iPhone 5 work with my old accessories?
As Apple's Marketing VP Phil Schiller noted during the keynote that launched the iPhone 5, in the past decade much has changed and so many of the things we used to do over the wire can now be done wirelessly. For example, we use Bluetooth to connect to speakers and headphones; WiFi can be used for audio and syncing; many modern iPhone stereos stream music straight from your iPhone using AirPlay, and iCloud can be used for downloading content wirelessly and backing up.
If you have an iPhone stereo that doesn't have AirPlay, or a battery pack that you were hoping to carry on using, you are out of luck. Apple does have an adapter available, but it comes at a price.
How much does the adaptor cost?
Some consumers are angry that Apple expects them to pay for the Lightning adaptor. In the UK, customers are doubly disappointed with Apple. The price of the various Lightning adapters and cables is higher here than in the US; in the case of the Lightening adaptor UK consumers will be paying a sixth more than those in the US sparking the usual Rip off Britain claims. The Lightning to USB Cable will cost £15, the Lightning adapter will retail at £25 and the Lightning-to-30-pin connector cable is £30.
Why didn't Apple use the Micro USB connector?
When Apple came out in support of the International Electrotechnical Commission's recommendation for a universal micro USB mobile charging standard, many had hoped that Apple would move away from its proprietary ports.
IHS analyst Ian Fogg sheds some light on why Apple's Lightning port is a superior option: "Apple's iPhone connectors offer more functionality than standard micro USB connectors, like the ability to directly control accessories from the iPhone screen, and it enables Apple to deliver a rich variety of third-party accessories," he told AllThingsD.
I'm keeping my existing contract and upgrading my iPhone, do I have to get a nano-SIM?
If you want to keep your existing contract and buy the new iPhone 5 you will need a nano-SIM. The nano-SIM is smaller than the micro-SIM used by the iPhone 4, 4S and iPad, so if you have one of these devices you won't be able to simply swap SIM cards. This new nano-SIM card measures just 12.3 x 8.8mm, and its thickness has also been reduced fractionally, from 0.76mm of the 1FF, 2FF and 3FF cards, to 0.67mm. The difference in thickness, even just 0.09mm, may cause problems when a cut-down micro-SIM is inserted into an aperture designed for a nano-SIM.
How does the iPhone 5 square up to the competition?
While there are many smartphones on the market that offer LTE 4G and HD Voice, larger screens, NFC, and micro-USB ports, Apple does appear to have the lead when it comes to processor power right now.
Apple's not said much about the A6 chip inside the iPhone 5, other than to claim that it provides twice the CPU performance and twice the graphics performance of the A5x chip that features in the iPhone 4S.
News has emerged, however, suggesting that Apple has designed its own CPU for the iPhone 6, rather than licensing a Cortex-A9 or next-generation Cortex-A15 from ARM. Apple's A6 CPU is based the ARMv7s architecture and is thought to have a dual-core design, running at 1.2GHz. The custom CPU is similar the to Cortex-A15 and the Krait CPU that appears in Qualcomm's chips, according to Gwennap.
Apple was able to take the design of the A6 chip in house because some years back it spent $400 million on the acquisitions of PA Semi and Intrinsity. "That half billion dollars could be money well spent," writes Lynley Group head Lynley Gwennap, revealing that Samsung won't be able to match the power of the new chip for three months. This seems to be backed up by Geekbench results: the iPhone 5 achieved a score of 1,601 on Geekbench - more than twice as much as the iPhone 4S' score of 636 and the New iPad (775). It also scores higher than various Android devices. The Samsung Galaxy S3 gets a score of 1,588, HTC One X scores 1,085, and the Google Nexus 7 scores 1,591.

The Scottish government has said it "cannot support" underground coal gasification, after a new report raised serious environmental concerns over the process.
Energy minister Paul Wheelhouse has told MSPs that the gas extraction technique "poses numerous and serious environmental risks" and that it has "no place in Scotland's energy mix at this time".
UCG extracts gas from coal seams that are too deep underground to be mined using traditional techniques by controlled burning. Projects proposed for coal seams under the Firth of Forth and Solway Firth were put on hold while the report, by Professor Campbell Gemmell of Glasgow University, was compiled.
It found that the Government should move towards banning UCG based on a variety of reasons including the industry having a history of incidents of pollution and losses of containment and UCG presenting a serious issue in reducing Scotland's carbon/greenhouse gas emissions without an operational storage method, such as carbon capture.
Mr Wheelhouse said: "Having considered the report in detail, it is the Scottish Government's view that UCG poses numerous and serious environmental risks and, on that basis, the Scottish Government cannot support this technology.
"Accordingly, UCG will have no place in Scotland's energy mix at this time."
The minister has written to the UK Government to request that it issues no further licences for UCG in Scotland, and asking that existing licences be revoked.
The move has been welcomed by environmental groups with Friends of the Earth Scotland saying the decision is "a victory for people power".
Mary Church, head of campaigns, said: "Setting coal seams alight under two of our major firths was always a reckless idea and the Government has listened to communities and put an end to this risky industry."
RSPB Scotland also said that moves have to made towards sustainable, low carbon energy.
Lloyd Austin, head of conservation policy, said: "Given sites being investigated include some of our most important places for marine wildlife including internationally protected seabirds, we welcome that the Government has taken a precautionary approach, resisted pressures to rush ahead with this technology and put the protection of the environment first."

I read Goolrick's earlier book on my own and then with a book club, and it struck me right away that there were distinct similarities between the two books. The most obvious to me was that both books are about a marriage as a financial arrangement which becomes more complex as the woman's motivations are revealed. Intense passion, infidelity, and the psychological depth of the characters exist in both novels.
Both are page-turners, and I'm wondering what Goolrick has up his sleeve next!

A painted portrait becomes a treasure
In the past few years I have had the good fortune to visit the British National Gallery, the British Portrait Gallery, the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Chicago Institute of Art, and the Boston Museum of Fine Art, amongst others. Seeing exceptional art in person can be a life-changing experience, both humbling and inspiring.
Portraits were everywhere: in every era, every style, every color, every size and media, from every country and created by every type of artist. Paintings of friends, patrons, family, clients, the artists themselves, people from every station of life, each one truly a work of art. The sitter and the artist open a window on another time and the best create an electric sense of connection and appreciation.
Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, Hans Holbein's Henry VIII, van Gogh and Rembrandt's many self-portraits, these are just a few of the well-known portraits that have come down to us through the ages. Their popularity and longevity is testimony to the power and value of capturing personality, character, and aspect, on canvas. In a portrait's brushstrokes we find a path connecting us to another human on a timeless level.
Oil paint captures the living qualities of the human face and body like no other medium. Skillfully handled, the portrait transcends technique and draws the viewer in. A single artist, striving to create a statement about the individual before them, creates a treasure for us all.
