I'm sitting at an outdoor cafe table sipping coffee on a recent morning in Naples when I spot someone who looks like Mark Howard trudging slowly in my direction.
I shake my head in astonishment, blink my eyes a couple of times to make sure it's not an apparition, and ask, "Is that you, Mark?" He nods in affirmative.
The Mark Howard I wrote about on June 28 was a homeless fellow with long disheveled hair, unkempt beard, soiled nylon jacket, tattered jeans, and lengthy fingernails covered with soot.
While this version of Howard still easily could be taken for someone who roams the streets, he has hair that has been sheared, a beard that has been trimmed, and apparel – Billabong jacket, Levi jeans, Nike Airs – that is new.
And he seems in a more upbeat mood than the previous time I had come across him when he was in a state of depression.
"Life takes a winding path, and you just never know from one day to the next where that path leads you to," he says.
He's shaking his head, and one can actually detect a glow in his blue eyes.
"Where have you been staying?" I wonder.
"Oh, I've been sleeping in the parking lot next to Morry's," he says, referring to the long-shuttered liquor store on Second Street.
Familiar tale
Then he starts telling me about how the previous week he had accepted a drink from a couple of guys and suddenly lost consciousness and woke up near Jamboree Road in Orange County to find his Social Security card and other ID cards stolen.
"That was the same story you told me last month, and you said then it had happened several weeks previously," I say.
"Oh, yeah, sometimes I get my dates and stories a little mixed up," he says.
He pauses momentarily to gather his thoughts.
"You wouldn't believe what happen to me the day the article about me appeared in the newspaper," resumes the 59-year-old, 1970 Wilson High graduate who once held down a six-figure salary as a digital design weapons systems engineer before his life unraveled 16 years ago.
"I'm walking down Ocean near Redondo when a police car pulls up. The policeman asks me if I'm the guy they wrote about in the paper, and I reply, `Yeah.' He says, `Get in.' I do, and he takes me down to a clothing store on Long Beach Boulevard, and I get all sorts of new clothes. And then I get a shower and haircut. What a great day for me!"
Only, apparently, it didn't happen quite the way Howard recalled it.
According to both the Long Beach director of Health & Human Services, Ron Arias, and his manager of homeless services, Susan Price, a two-person outreach team in a van was dispatched on the morning of June 28 to specifically locate Howard.
He was found, brought to the department's Multi-Service Center on 1301 West 12th St., was given a shower, food and other amenities.
A quality-of-life officer on the Long Beach Police Department – one of two on the force – later that day took Howard to the Christian Outreach In Action drop-in center on Linden and also to a barbershop and to the Social Security office.
"Mark was very amenable to what was being provided to him," says Price.
Until, that is, he was given an opportunity to stay overnight at one of the board-and-care facilities around the city that caters to the homeless.
"Suddenly, Mark became service-resistant," says Arias. "He didn't want to stay."
Apparently, Howard has some cognitive issues, and his short-term memory is impaired.
"Our goal is to get him off the streets," says Price. "We also got to help him get his Social Security card so he can get connected to the benefits."
There are a lot of old Wilson High classmates of Howard – he grew up with his parents, now deceased, in a duplex on 58th Place on the Peninsula – who have been trying to lend assistance to him.
Facebook campaign
One, Gloria McMillan, has posted his story on the Wilson '70 Facebook page and has been actively recruiting those who knew Howard for support.
Howard's childhood passion was sailing, and he was involved in competitions for the Alamitos Bay Yacht Club.
"I want to get back sailing," he says, as he hungrily consumes an egg sandwich as I continue to sip my coffee. "I miss it. Really miss it."
Howard says it all went wrong for him when he lost his job in the early 1990s at a time when he was drinking too much alcohol and doing too many drugs.
"My bad habits got the better of me," he says. "I often lay awake at night and think to myself, `How could this happen to me?"'
His eyes suddenly turn sad.
"I need to get my Social Security card," he says, and this is something he says repeatedly.
"Where are you going today?" I wonder.
He fixes me with a vacant stare.
"I, well, I'll try to find some smokes," he says.
Meaning, of course, he will relight discarded cigarette butts that have a few puffs remaining in them.
"I'll also try to come up with some money for dinner," he says.
He estimates he walks at least six miles a day.
"My journeys usually take me between Naples and downtown Long Beach," says Howard, who in his senior year at Wilson made the CIF quarterfinals in the 660-yard running event.
"Mark, because of his problems, is very vulnerable on the streets," Susan Price will tell me later. "We have a concern for his viability. We'd like to see him boarded in our extended-care facilities."
But Howard admits he doesn't want to be forced to stay under a roof with others in his predicament.
"I'd rather face my fate alone," he says, as he gets up and shambles away to an uncertain destination and unknown destiny.

The decision to move away from a paper check and statement to direct deposit and e-statement brings greater efficiency to our office. As a result, we will now be able to pay commissions on a monthly basis versus the quarterly schedule we have utilized in the past.
Please make sure we have the most up-to-date information for your agency. Please complete this Authorization for Automatic (Direct) Deposit Form, attach a Voided Check and return to us via email, fax or mail.
Email: Send to Ping Chen, our Agency Accounting Manager at firstname.lastname@example.com. (For easy processing, PLEASE type "ACH Authorization" on the subject line of your email.)

An E&O Twist on WC – Are Your Aware of Employees in Other States?
This fall we received numerous calls from agents whose insureds were experiencing WC audits by states not listed on their WC policy. We found that in several cases, the insured had an employee working in another state but had failed to tell their agent or list that state on their WC policy. At times this resulted in state fees (often significant amounts) levied on the insured. While the agents involved were not aware that their insured had an employee in another state, clients were still upset about both the fines and the hassle.
To help avoid this situation in the future, we suggest informing your insureds of the states covered on their WC policy in Part 1 and remind them that if they have ANY employees working other states, that they should contact you to discuss. Hopefully, based on the account and your carrier, you would be able to endorse their current policy to secure coverage.
Have Questions about Workers' Comp? Send them into our WC Team! Colleen Lahna is available to discuss current policies or contact Barbara Lobdell with new business inquiries and applications.
Flood: Superstorm Sandy Breeds Potential E&O Claims
As an agent you are in the business of finding creative solutions to the risk management needs of your clients. And when faced with a claim, insureds can get creative, too.
We have heard through the grapevine that E&O carriers have received claims on behalf of insureds who are seeking financial restitution after finding coverage inadequate in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. While we will have to wait and see how these E&O claims play out, be aware that the results of Superstorm Sandy are still fresh in everyone's mind. NOW is the time to review current limits, discuss adding a Flood policy, and determine if an Excess Flood Policy is needed.
If you aren't selling or marketing flood insurance…you should be! If your agency already writes flood, you may want to consider our program. Why? Because our Write Your Own Flood Program with The Hartford provides:
MAIA members are eligible to join our Write Your Own Flood Program with The Hartford. Get started by contacting Sheron Gagnon at 800.742.6363. She can assist you in signing up, rolling over an existing book, or directing you to some available marketing materials.

I have just started using Apex and want a simple Interactive Grid to show users and allow them to update data.
There are lots of columns and Order Date as a primary key (with Order Number as second column in PK).
I get Ajax threw error ORA-01858 when I update one of the rows.
I have created a test table with just a date as primary key and a number as an updateable column:
create table tss.xxx_date2 as select trunc(sysdate) + level as d1, level as col2 from dual connect by level <= 10 ;
alter table tss.xxx_date2 add constraint xxx_date2_pk primary key (d1);
When I try and update Col2 I get the error. I have created a similar table with number as PK and it is fine.
Main assumption is that it is to do with Date formats / time portions? Maybe I can trunc() or format the date somehow....?
Can anyone offer any help? I am very new to Apex and lost where to look.
I saw that someone had a similar error in 18: Error saving table data - Error ORA-01858

This video course, published with Packt Publishing, is an introductory course for data analysis with Python. This course discusses how to use Python for data science, emphasizing application. It starts with introducing natural language processing and computer vision. It ends with two case studies; in one, I train a classifier to detect spam e-mail, while in the other, I train a computer vision system to detect emotions in faces.
This course is the fourth and final volume in a four-volume series entitled, Taming Data with Python; Excelling as a Data Analyst. The first volume of the course, Unpacking NumPy and Pandas, discussed setting up a Python data analysis environment and introductory usage of NumPy and Pandas. The second volume, Data Acquisition and Manipulation with Python, showed how to perform more advanced data manipulation with Pandas and how to get data from the Internet. The third volume, Training Your Systems with Python Statistical Modelling, showed how to train machine learning models using Python tools. This volume concludes the course, using elements from the other three volumes to wrap up important concepts with some examples.

THE novel The Dragon Can't Dance has posed many challenges to students and possibly teachers as well.
I make this observation from my experience with colleagues, students and fellow examiners.
For that reason I feel that it has to be treated in some detail for the benefit of our dear clients, students and candidates.
To this end there will be four submissions on this novel beginning with this Part One which provides the historical background to the text.
Historical Background
To understand the cultural implosion which comes as a result of colonial 'modernity' in The Dragon can't Dance, one has to trace the whole history of the Caribbean all the way from beyond the mid-15th century when Christopher Columbus invaded the Caribbean and the Americas.
Trinidad which is the physical setting of this novel was, prior to European occupation, inhabited by Amerindian peoples of the Arawak group.
They had lived there for time immemorial.
These were later joined by Caribs well before 1498.
The newcomers had established settlements by the end of the 16th century.
After its invasion by Columbus the Spanish also began to settle on the island and started the production of tobacco and cocoa during the 17th century. However, because they lacked the skills for economic development and shipping, their capacity to develop a productive base was crippled.
Spain which was the colonial authority failed to develop the productive industrial and commercial base necessary to maintain an empire hence by 1783 the Spanish government ceded Trinidad to the French planters who used slave labour to develop a capital base for a plantation colony.
The principal incentive for the French slave owners was a free grant of land on two main conditions: first, that they wereRoman Catholic and, second, that they were loyal citizens of countries friendly to Spain.
This meant that the settlers would be almost exclusively French for only French planters could fulfill the requirements of Roman Catholicism and alliance with Spain.
These newcomers surpassed the early Spaniards and with slave labour the economy of Colonial Trinidad began to flourish.
Sugar quickly became Trinidad's most important crop, and as the sugar industry boomed, so did the British slave trade, who brought with them many African slaves to the island.
This greatly affected the dominant culture of Trinidad.
Creole culture became the norm of the black community as they mixed and mingled with these local and European invaders (the French and the Spaniards). On the other hand, French influence could be seen in dress and the rhythms of music and dance while British influence was seen in the incipient and incicive infiltration of the English Language.
Note, however, that as more and diverse immigrants with their variegated cultural backgrounds flocked to the island, came more stratified social hierarchies.
Those who occupied the top were without exception wealthy white land-owners and slave-holders whose politics were royalist and conservative, men committed to the preservation of slavery and white ascendancy.
They literally became the ruling elite class of Trinidad.
One observer makes the point that by the 1790s British merchants had conducted a flourishing trade with Trinidad taking advantage of Trinidad's favourable geographical position which made it safe from the fiery British Navy.
This idyllic safety was soon to be exposed when in 1795 Spain and Francesigned a peace agreement, making Spain (and by extension the colony of Trinidad) strong allies of France.
This pact was followed by France inviting Spain to join it in its campaign against Britain in 1796, and this meant that Trinidad was now exposed to the British navy.
Consequently, with an ill-equipped army, Spain surrendered Trinidad on 18 February 1797, making the island a colony of Britain.
Britain continued to import slaves to work the sugar plantations into the 1800s although anti-slavery campaigns were beginning to gain popularity in England. In 1807, Britain accepted the abolition of the British slave trade, but the colony continued to use slave labour to work the plantations.
It was not until 1833 that the 'Act of Emancipation' became law on August 1 1834.
After the abolition of slavery, the British found new recruits in East Indians to work the plantations.
They flocked to Trinidad to work as indentured labourers (contract workers). The system was established in such a way that male Indians who had lived in Trinidad for 10 years could be granted 10 acres of Crown lands in commutation of all claims to a free return passage to India for which many Indians opted.
This influx of Indians to Trinidad marked a new element to the already stratified society.
Planters, upper-class whites, educated coloured and black Creoles and the Blacks all reacted unsympathetically to the new immigrants.
Interaction between the races was at an all-time low hence the Indians were quickly condemned to the lowest level of the socio-economic order.
Their religion Hinduism was equally castigated.
One observer described the new arrivals as, "considered to be deceitful, prone to perjury, and abnormally fond of litigation."
Meanwhile, the black community who were still experiencing discrimination had begun to form their own sub-cultural alliance apart from the dominant British and Christian ideals.
The nuclear group consisted of Creole ex-slaves and their descendants.
They had developed a common set of cultural characteristics, which combined to form the mainstream of the cultural pattern of Trinidad, though many Europeans still refused to accept African religious practices as genuine forms of worship and treated the devotees of African religions with utter contempt. Nonetheless, the Africans continued to revere their African whom they equated to Catholic saints.
Hostility and contempt were so predominant that artistic forms of African or slave derivation were subject to legal restrictions all through the 19th century. The instrument that was hated most was the 'African drum'.
This is the context in which carnival should be understood – as an alternative fusion of African rhythms into ceremonies acceptable to the upper class whites.
Before emancipation, Carnival had been an elegant social affair of the upper-class Creole whites.
It was introduced by the French as a series of masquerade balls, but after 1838 the ex-slaves and the lower orders generally participated. By the 1860's Carnival was taken over almost entirely by the majority of urban slums and organised into yard bands who challenged rival bands to show off prowess in song, dance, and stick-fighting.
This background is essential to understand The Dragon Can't Dance.

As a small business, it's unlikely you'll have big budgets, staff or cost-free personnel hours to invest in a complex on the internet technique, but there are definitely some basic measures you can take to begin reaping the rewards that the internet can bring.A logo should be clean and crisp. It shouldn't leave your consumers puzzled about what it signifies. Simplicity is typically greatest. Use no much more than three colors frequently just a single or two is sufficient. Stick to two or, even better, a single font. Employ imagery that is easy enough to enlarge or lessen without having losing its meaning. Your logo can still be creative, but it should not be overwhelming or overly busy.It is extremely challenging to be distinct but as an example, I can develop a low price internet site with a similar structure to this and five to ten pages for a really affordable price, probably someplace in between £400 and £700. Very importantly, this will generally incorporate efficient search engine optimisation. Smaller internet sites will cost much less. Please don't forget that you must supply the simple text information for the site though we can typically write this for you at an additional charge.A internet site is important to telling the story for any commence-up firm. Spend-per-click is an on the internet marketing format that enables you to buy your way to the prime of search final results pages for search phrases relevant to your organization. To do this, you bid against other businesses using the exact same search terms.

But their you could check here Internet site provides visitors an e-mail address that leads to an employee that left the organization. Or the e-mails go to an information mailbox that does not belong to any person so it in no way gets checked.Receiving began in internet development also demands some simple understanding of great design and style. Besides generating your self familiar with some style tools, I'd recommend studying the standard concepts of design and style. Learn how to believe like a designer.Allocate sufficient time and pick delivery days cautiously: The crucial to engaging expert development sessions is giving employees the time to take component in one thing meaningful for their personal development and balancing this with college priorities. If you are possessing a difficult time with copy, ask your designer about copywriting solutions. Copywriters will take the burden of writing endless pages of content material off your hands while including key phrases for the search engines and phrases that encourage visitors to engage that will add even much more value to your web site.Good teaching and understanding comes from strong subject understanding, a healthful rapport with students and powerful questioning. So devote the one particular precious commodity we have small of, time, wisely. And occasionally rather than redesigning that worksheet or building that resource, pop over here you should have a glass of wine and go to bed. A stressed, worn out teacher can have all the gimmicks feasible, but if they snap each and every time somebody does not do what they are meant to since they are overtired then all the work was for nothing at all anyway.With so many web sites getting designed every single day, it is a mystery to many designers and developers how to make their internet site stand out from the pack.

Is there anything more intriguing than beautiful blue eyes? Elvis Presley was known for his.
Elvis Presley was "The King" indeed.
He had the talent to cover Simon & Garfunkle's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" with such emotional surge, that it left the song's creators wondering how they could compete with his version. He sacrificed his beautiful side burns for his nation. He even knew how to make a white, bell-bottomed jumpsuit covered in rhinestones look cool.
Not to mention the man's devastating good looks. It's hard not to experience a crazy little thing called love when you look into Elvis' blue suede eyes.
But he's not the only creature in the world to bestow such radiant irises….
For instance, you may call a Siberian husky nothing but a hound dog, but Fido has a Caribbean beach's worth of blue in his eyes. As do tigers, horses, and even lemurs.
Here are 20 animals that out-blue The King:

Conservative News & Commentary
We've written about this before, but it is good to be reminded about principles that make the world work, so that we aren't easily swayed by good story tellers and fairy tales. Recently the Herald and News' editor published a piece titled "Building The Local Economy From Within. Following is the money quote:
Lead by facilitator Gary Weldon, the group included city and county officials, chamber of commerce members, people from Klamath County Economic Development Association and the South Central Oregon Economic Development District, tourism representatives, and officials from Oregon Tech, KCC, Sky Lakes Medical Center, banks and utilities.
Now carefully look at that list and tell me how many government / government funded / government regulated entities are listed versus how many private sector businesses/industries. Hmmm. This is like trying to solve a physics problem and inviting all the English and History professors into a room to figure out the answer. In both scenarios we've got the wrong people in the room. Why? Because the groups listed in the Herald and News story don't offer their products or services in the competitive world. Being competitive, aka profitable, need not apply. For the most part all of these entities are all monopolies. Yet this is the brain trust called together to solve our economic problems? Woe to us.
CONTACT: Dani Nichols

KLAMATH FALLS, ORE. - Today, Constitution Day, at the Klamath County Commissioner's Weekly Public Meeting, Dennis Linthicum announced his intention to explore pursuing the U.S. Representative position in Oregon's Second District.
"After talking to the people of Klamath County and surrounding areas, I'm convinced that those in the 2nd District of Oregon are looking for leadership and strong, Constitutionally conservative values," Commissioner Dennis Linthicum said before the meeting. "Our economy is struggling and, at the county level, I see every day how individuals, families and businesses are impacted by bad policies and tone-deaf regulation. My goal with this exploratory effort is not to turn away from Klamath County's issues, but to be able to represent them, and other counties in the 2nd District, in a more substantial way at the Federal level."
When our daughter returned from the campground restroom she tried her best to tell us what she had just seen and heard. It took a while for her giggles to refrain into intelligible words and I must say that along the way her breathless laughter became really, really contagious. Just like the majority of U.S. Senators and media types when the current president speaks, we had no clue as to what we were so convulsively happy about. But that lack of wisdom did not quench our giddiness.
What had actually happened was that as she neared her destination she detected both male and female voices enthusiastically arising from the ladies side of the outdoorsie facility. Upon cautiously entering, therein she discovered two twenty somethings busily fidgeting to get just the right long lens, tripoded, really nice camera shot in the gloomy incandescent toilet room light. As it turned out though the subject was a large plastic spider. Yet to the environmentally sensitive superior and fair minded city folk it was an amazing and possibly undiscovered spidey species.
I knew instantly what she was referring to as there was a matching obviously plastic representation on the fellow's side. I was wishing that I had been the one to think of that prankish deception. Those in attendance were surprised if not unconvinced that I was not the perpetrator.
Someone once said a picture is worth a thousand words. Therefore...
Like so many battles ongoing in our society the Klamath water struggle is simply (beneath the spiritual level anyway) an issue of Left vs. Right, Competing Marxisms vs. Capitalism, oppression vs. freedom.
The mind set of those who cut our irrigation water off and continue to fiendishly dominate it hasn't changed. The mind set of some of those affected by the 2001 water cut off has changed however. To them the bad guys are now the ones who were the victims then and continue to resist those same scandalous forces now. Some say that a change of that nature may indicate that they have actually taken on the perspective of the aggressor. That new worldview may have been adopted for any number of reasons, many of which could well have been good and noble in the beginning.
The veiled essence of that regressive Progressive perspective is captured in a You Tube video titled; "Occupy Cascadia Documentary". After viewing such you may start to understand why it was that a May 30, 2013 rally was held some six + hours away from Klamath Falls in Portland, Oregon. The event was organized to thank Senator Ron Wyden for his support of the KBRA/KHSA. As some may know, Portland is the political heart and soul of Cascadia. And no, K Falls isn't a yarnhead controlled commune locale yet, so an assembly as such would not come off quite so well appreciated here - local newspaper coverage aside.
A recent Letter to the Editor and a radio ad campaign by the Citizens for Klamath Schools PAC take direct aim at Dennis Linthicum, by launching several personal attacks. Isn't it interesting that when someone opposes the Left (increasing taxes to solve a problem) that the person who stands up against these "elites" who "know what's best for you" is personally attacked? Well it should be no surprise. Rule #13 in Communist Saul Alinsky's handbook, Rules for Radicals, states:
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
Last week the Herald and News continued to spread its progressive, liberal filth on the innocent in Klamath County. I've attached a clipping of the article in found in View Points (page 1, page 2). It only requires reading the first paragraph to understand that the person (or group) who wrote this article either lives in an alternative universe or can not let the facts get in the way of their ideology.
"Anyone who attended the inaugural Klamath County Crystal Apple Awards ceremonies Tuesday night for teachers and school staff were surely impressed with the caliber of educators in this county."
Now wait a moment. Is this the same group of fine educators that produces a 73% graduation rate in the County Schools and a 57% rate in the City Schools? Combined the two districts spend $100,000,000.00 each year to educate our children and 1 out of 3 do not receive a diploma. Moreover of those that do graduate many are not proficient at math or reading. That said, we can be certain that all of them know how to place a condom on a banana and where at their school they can score some funny weed. What's more these students are well versed in the pilgrims bigoted lifestyle, the awful sins of Washington and Jefferson for owning slaves and how much a debt our society owes to the native tribes who were here before us (we're sorry we stole your land, how can we make this up to you?).
There once was a Lady who loved her dog. She had specially selected her puppy from the local Humane Society. The Lady called her dog "Mrs. Hound" and loved her dog as much as one could love dog. The Lady walked Mrs. Hound every morning and every night. The Lady also bought Mrs. Hound the best dog food available to ensure a long, happy and healthy life. It was a match made in doggie heaven.
But one day the Lady had to go back to work. You see, the Lady had adopted the puppy during her two week vacation in the summer, and now that time had now come and gone. So the Lady found a local kennel who would pick up Mrs. Hound each morning and then drop her off in the evening after the Lady had returned from work. The kennel bragged about its programs for puppies and ensured the Lady that Mrs. Hound would be a far better dog for attending their special canine training. They would also provide Mrs. Hound proper socialization, so Mrs. Hound would know how to act around other dogs and people. Naturally Mrs. Hound would receive excellent care while at the kennel. The Lady agreed to the monthly fee, and the next Monday morning the service picked up Mrs. Hound promptly at 7:45 in a special doggie van.
Summer quickly turned to Autumn and soon Winter would be here. Mrs. Hound was growing up and the Lady couldn't be more proud of her.
Have you ever made a decision that later on you regretted making? The answer to that question is, "of course." We have all made decisions that we wish we hadn't made. Sometimes those decisions don't really matter, yet sometimes they can significantly alter the course of our lives. The fool continues to make the same poor choices over and over. The fool doesn't learn from their mistakes. One poor decision after another. The wise person learns from the errors in the past and tries to prevent from making them again going forward.
So why do we make such foolish choices?
Well in some cases it is inexperience. We just don't have enough information or experience in a particular matter so we make an error in judgment. Fair enough. This is one way we develop as a child, through adolescent, to maturity as an adult. As we live our lives we add more and more experience to our knowledgebase. But in most cases as adults, our foolish choices are caused when we let our emotions get the best of us.
One thing you have to admit, Liberals are a patient lot. Liberalism didn't just appear in America one day. Instead, slowly but steadily Liberalism has been advancing the cause of an all powerful state, an irrelevant church, and the subservient individual.
A popular tactic of the Left is called incrementalism. It is a slippery slope that gets the public to buy into a liberal idea — but slowly over time. Incrementalism typically ties itself to an emotional or compassionate cause (we need to help the needy, the children, the elderly, etc). The way incrementalism works is similar to boiling a frog. If a frog were placed into boiling pot of water, the frog naturally reacts by immediately jumping out of the pot containing certain death. However, if you place a frog into cool water and slowly over time warm the water to a state of boiling, the frog will never know what has happened until it is too late.
In Klamath County we see this playing out with the County School Bond Measure soon before us. The plea is "Just a little bit more". Even though the County and City school districts receive nearly $100 million each year (that's nearly $1 Billion spent on public education in our county in just 10 years), they will be asking you for just a little bit more: a mere 53¢ per $1,000 on property taxes. That sounds harmless enough. This blog has several reasons to be against this bond measure, but this post looks at what's happening incrementally.

The paper, co-authored with Lucie Buffavand, is a product of several years work in the lower Omo valley, where a massive hydroelectric dam and sugar plantations are reshaping the landscape and people's opportunities to live within it. We investigated the experience of people subjected to a campaign of 'villagization' – resettlement associated with the establishment of plantations on lands previously used for farming, herding, and foraging.

Nikkei Markets
HONG KONG (Dec 28) -- Bond issuers in Asian countries outside of Japan raised a record $438.93 billion through notes issued in U.S. dollars, Japanese yen and euros this year, up nearly 40% from the year ago, according to markets data provider Dealogic.
Chinese issuers raised $217.73 billion across 311 G3 bonds, which are notes denominated in dollars, euros and yen, up 81% from 2016, the data updated till Dec. 27 showed. China's issuances accounted for almost half the total international bond deals in the region. Australian and South Korean issuers raised $77.15 billion and $29.91 billion, respectively, ranking second and third.
Chinese corporates flocking to the offshore bond market propelled the record-setting volumes in the region this year.
"China was a main driver for the boom," Rachel Shao, debt capital markets regional research manager at Dealogic, told Nikkei Markets, citing the bear onshore bond market as a possible reason. "According to Dealogic data, we do see an obvious contrast between a booming offshore (market) and a declining onshore (market)".
Onshore bond issuance this year came in at about $50 billion, only a third of last year's volume, Shao said. "While the offshore number this year was actually triple that of last year." China's high-yield G3 bond issuance jumped to $35.1 billion across 94 bond deals this year, compared with $9.08 billion last year.
Real estate companies raised $25.54 billion through the bonds, making up 72.8% of China's international bond issuances in 2017.
"Chinese developers were facing more regulatory pressure because of the domestic housing price control and they were not allowed to issue more bonds this year, so they went to the offshore market to issue U.S. dollar bonds," Dealogic's Shao said.
Holding companies contributed about 7% of the issues. Shao said companies such as Wanda Group and Fosun Holdings have refinancing needs after a lot of overseas mergers and acquisitions.
Shao expects Chinese property issuers to remain a major contributor to high-yield bond issuance in Asia's largest economy in 2018, as declining housing sales and rising land prices will drive funding requirements.
Chinese issuers are poised to have more than $10.52 billion in outstanding international bond issuances maturing next year, $14.69 billion in 2019 and $22.6 billion in 2020, according to data from Dealogic.

Discovering a new area is all about understanding its local attractions, and for me that has also involved learning about new restaurants. When we first came to our town, we instantly gravitated towards the local pizza restaurant (because, pizza) only to learn that our walkable joint was closing and being reinvented into something new.
Some three months later that something new is also something phenomenal with Exit 4 Food Hall. A foodie's paradise, Exit 4 Food Hall offers literally something for everyone where you can find various food stations in a communal eating environment. This includes sandwiches, pasta, pizza, raw seafood, salads, and much more. This one-stop dining experience is focused on seasonal, locally sourced and artisinally crafted food in a lively and upbeat dining environment.
I recently had the chance to try out some of its amazing fare during a local Westchester blogger meeting and loved the collection of charcuterie, sushi and salads that we had the opportunity to try. It reminded me of an upscale party where you can try out a little bit of everything. The food hall also offers drinks (specifically wine and craft beer) that has its own separate station where you can also opt to drop-in and sit at the bar.
The vibe of the place was also really enjoyable that was really packed on a Tuesday night. Having passed by during the weekend, you can also see how much of a scene Exit 4 brings and for good reason. The only determent is it would be tough to bring really little kids here. The tables are really high and the inside space is narrow, but I definitely would reserve it for a date-night or girls' night out. Delicious, fun and an awesome vibe, Exit 4 is definitely a must-try restaurant in Westchester.
Visit Exit 4 Food Hall:
153 Main St. Mount Kisco, NY 10549

Our Westchester blogger group was provided with complimentary food.

That was a close game. Even though the Cubs lost to the Atlanta Braves in extra innings 4-3, it was exciting. You can't win them all, right?
"We did a lot of things well," Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. "We had one mistake on defense, and I thought it was a little bit of a tough hop for Addy, but otherwise, they hit some balls well today, and we hit some balls well today without any luck. I appreciate how our guys came back and had a chance to win the game. It was another entertaining game from the fans' perspective. I like the fight in our group."
Listen, I'm not a huge Atlanta Braves fan, Never have been and never will. I don't know what it is about them that turns my stomach, but there's just this "Blech!"feeling overtime I watch them play. It could be all those years on TBS. I don't know.
Now that John Lackey is with the good guys, I've had more opportunity to take a look at him and man, he's earned my respect. He's tough as nails, especially after those few choice words he said to Tyler Flowers in the bottom of the fifth inning.
Ok, so to recap a bit, Lackey threw a high pitch and then there were a some words exchanged that were the equivalent of Potty words that my son would say.
"We had a little discussion," Lackey said. "It's still baseball. I'm not a pitching machine. If you want me to throw it over the plate for you, we can go somewhere else. This is the big leagues."
Lackey's a big guy. He throws me a pitch, I'm going to say,"Which way would you like me to move, sir."
The great news was that Kris Bryant was back after a precautionary rest when he sprained his ankle. I got a little worried that he might be out of the Cubs lineup a little longer.
"Felt good," Kris Bryant said. "I think that was their concern, if I could run down some balls out there. But I felt fine going through all the routes."
Cubs take to the road and head to Pittsburgh in an apparent theme trip. I'm excited because we head to Steeltown in July to catch the Cubs/Pirates.
Joe Maddon has the players dressed in crazy suits and it's certainly going to be a crazy series after last season's Wild Card game and we all know how that ended, didn't we?
"I think we all enjoy going there because we know we're going to play a high-quality team," said Arrieta, who will start Tuesday's game. "We know that in order to beat these guys, we've got to be on top of our game, we've got to play good defense because we know their lineup is strong. They've got the ability to do a lot of things — they can run, hit for power, they can move guys around. Being able to neutralize that team in Pittsburgh is a challenge."
Believe it.

Jesus has His ways of showing His unfailing love to us as we journey through the trials of each day. Jesus is not boring and longwinded; but He truely is an adventurer! He has so much to say to us as we walk in trust steps knowing that He is holding us by His right Hand; and that He will guide our steps along the way.
In some ways if not all; I have worn the coat of Mahleh, and have made alot of wrong choices, even some that I have regretted for a long time. The Good News though, is that God knew that no one will ever be able to go to heaven. So He did something sooo, coool! He sent His Son to pay the debt for all our sins and He made a way for us to reconciled to God, so that we can go to heaven. And, He also gave us His Holy Spirit to make us Holy, like He is Holy. Believe me, I sure need Jesus to help me every single day! Mahleh learns to Chew God's word by seeing things differently. The lessons in this sight will help to look to Jesus, as we follow His teachings.
I hope this sight is a cool place for you to hang out and get to know Jesus is a personal way. The first time someone asked me if I wanted a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, I told him he was crazy and to get lost! Well, it turned out that I was crazy not to accept His invitation and boy did I get lost!

for the first time! Last night during the First Presidency Christmas Devotional, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir performed part of Handel's Messiah, For Unto Us a Child is Born. I cannot begin to describe the power that piece of music had on me. I have heard it many times before, and always thought it was beautiful.
This time, I don't know if I was hearing it with new ears, but something was different. I was enraptured, if you will excuse the use of such a melodramatic word. It was so thrilling to me to hear not only the powerful words of Isaiah but to hear them set to inarguably some of the most triumphant music ever composed.
Join me in my search for meaning, for worthwhile pursuits, for discovery. "Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you." --1 Peter 3:15

I usually sing my way through Isaiah! I am glad you finally understand. Duane & I try to go to the "Sing your own Messiah" every year at the Cathedrial of the Rockies in downtown Boise. It is the highlight of the season.

L&L Remarks
We are excited to share a beautiful styled shoot inspired by Kate Moss' Wedding!
Styled Shoot Story
Photographer's Remarks: "We were first inspired to do this shoot by Kate Moss's wedding featured in the September Issue of Vogue from 2010. If you haven't had the chance to see the photos, they reflect the very effortless glamor that Kate exudes. Even on her wedding day she pulls off the rocker-hippie-glam in a gauzy cream sequined dress with little to no effort. Her wedding was set in the beautiful English country side, complete with wild flowers and white rose bushes outside the front door of the beautiful old Perish they were married in."
"In this style shoot we wanted to pull the things we loved from Kate's beautiful wedding and add our spin on it. We created an afternoon of tea, treats, sunshine, friends and of course lovely head-wreaths. The tea party was held in a backyard, filled with trees, flowers, & sunshine. We brought in furniture pieces that complemented the atmosphere."

Your Weekly Parenting Horoscope For June 5-11
It's true: Your zodiac sign can offer insight into plenty of random moments in your everyday life, from how you can best tackle your toddler's worst tantrums to how to identify your career goals. Romper partnered with astrologer Maressa Brown to share how you can make what's going on up in the sky work for you and score even more bliss and balance in your day-to-day. Here's your weekly horoscope for June 5-11.
Love, progress, and drama are major themes this week. That's because on Tuesday, Venus, the planet of love, moves into earth sign Taurus. The four-week visit should boost your attraction to all things sensual, old-fashioned, and romantic. In other words, that dinner date night with your bae you've been putting off is finally gonna happen for real!
The planet of communication Mercury also shifts signs on Tuesday into airy, talkative Gemini, so you can expect three weeks of intensified conversations and socializing. Maybe use that opportunity to set up more playdates with your besties and their L.O.s, or do lots of creative brainstorming on the job.
Finally, Friday's theatrical full moon in Sagittarius occurs in close proximity to Saturn, which is all about tough lessons and hard work. In short, put your nose to the grindstone and maybe do something you're not too thrilled about (like finally getting down to brass tacks with the toddler's potty-training plan?). It could lead to a positive upshot...
Read more below to find out what this week's forecast means for your sign.
Aries (March 21–April 19)
If a friend or your partner has been driving you nuts (maybe by acting judgy about that new positive parenting strategy you've been trying with your L.O.), and you haven't addressed the issue yet, you won't want to hold back anymore after Tuesday, when Mercury moves into your third house of communication for three weeks. Yes, you could very well blow up initially, but try to rein your irritation in a bit to have a rational convo. That will ultimately leads to the best result.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You're probably going to start itching to prioritize romance and one-on-one time with your bae or, if you're single, someone who gets you hot and bothered, thanks to Venus, the planet of love, moving into your sign on Tuesday. What you're craving the most is taking things slow, so plan ahead by calling the sitter and locking down that dinner res ASAP. That will help you chill out. (Well, as much as you possibly can, considering all the other ridiculousness on your plate RN).
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You might have to have a difficult talk with your partner (maybe about TTC or what's not working in the bedroom?) around Friday, when the full moon is in your seventh house of relationships. It's probably the last thing in the whole friggin' world you really want to be doing, but zero in on the problem so you can address it head-on. Talk and action can be majorly healing.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Your calendar might go from totally blank to brimming with happy hours with colleagues and meet-ups with your mom friends, once social Venus is in your eleventh house of networking for four weeks starting on Tuesday. You're probably going to want to pull your hair out, because you can't for the life of you figure out how to juggle it all, but chill. Brainstorm with your besties to figure out brilliant child care solutions, like hiring someone's niece to watch all the kids together. You've got this!
Leo (July 23-August 22)
All you'll probably want is a spontaneous bang sesh with your partner around Friday, when the full moon is in your fifth house of romance. But of course, there will be a million and one things the L.O.s need at that same exact time, and you might feel exhausted by the time a shower quickie is even possible. That said, strategizing—and vocalizing your desires—makes it easier to feel like you've checked off all the boxes on your to-do list. Yes, kween.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Moving, renovating, or just getting the details together for a family vacation should become so much easier after Friday. That's thanks to lucky Jupiter moving forward in your fourth house of family life, where i'ts been retrograde since February. You're usually pretty freakin' pragmatic and measured in your approach to big projects, but now you can go balls to the wall. Let your imagination run wild, mama!
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Chemistry could very well be off the charts between you and your bae starting on Tuesday. Romantic Venus will be in your eighth house of sexual intimacy for four weeks, making you both horny AF. Finding ways to sneak flirtation and foreplay into your everyday schedule (like using your pumping time as an opportunity to sext them) makes it easy to take full advantage of this seriously hot aspect.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
A big project you've been putting your everything into could finally lead to a big payoff around Friday, when the full moon is in your second house of income. But before you're able to cash in, you may have to work on some finishing touches or put extra hours in. Yes, you're gonna feel like you're at your wits' end, thanks to all the other sh*t on your plate at home, but grinning and bearing it will be worth it.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
You'll feel like you're kicking major ass around Friday when the full moon is in your sign. Maybe you'll actually make it to the gym three times a week, or you'll figure out how to overhaul your kid's picky eating habits. Whatever the goal is, own your success and totally give yourself the props you deserve! But you'll also do well to figure out how to take your plan to the next level, because the more you can get down to business now, the brighter the outcome.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
Talking about your health and fitness goals is sure to be easy once communicator Mercury is in your sixth house of wellness for three weeks starting on Tuesday. Just try not to get too wrapped up in what your BFF or that mom at your L.O.'s playgroup is doing. Trading tips about the Whole 30 or another fitness regimen is cool, but if you're good with whatever it is you're already doing, that's also perfectly badass.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
All you'll want to do is hang out at home with your kids and partner on Tuesday, once Venus, the planet of love, moves into your fourth house of family life. There's nothing wrong with prioritizing nesting time, but socializing at home (like having a bagel brunch with your BFFs and their kids) will help you mix things up.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
You might be coming up on an important deadline related to your professional goals around Friday, when the full moon is in your tenth house of career. You might get a ton of last-minute suggestions from higher-ups, which will drive you completely nuts, especially considering that you're just wishing you could just get home, pop that bottle of rosé, and chill with baby and bae. But the more willing you are to go all out RN, the more likely you are to get the recognition you totally deserve.

But "this kind of sucks" sounds much more dramatic than "this is kind of so-so".
I blab too much about Undead and Inhuman because I like keeping you guys up to speed on it, but at the same time I want to leave things behind the curtain so that there will be surprises when the time comes to read it. I will give away two things: 1) the story is about vampires fighting aliens, and 2) the main characters are three soldiers named Austin Joyce, Matt Durham, and Bobby Daniels. Terrible vampire names. I'm sure you guys were expecting something like Dimitri or Antonio or Lestat, but these aren't brooding, romantic vampires. They are people who act just as people do today, and thus have ever day names.
When I finished going over the action and theme cards for each of the chapters, the next step was to go back and plot out the characters chapter by chapter. And this worked at first, but then I came to a chapter where only one of the characters had something significant to do. The others, not so much. So that I'm going to do now is go back and review the plot one character at a time.
With one chapter in particular, I sat back and thought, "Here I am trying to force characters into doing something I don't want them to do." For instance, one of the protagonists is a drone pilot, and for lack of better options, I had him go from piloting predators to experimental space-drones, and that jump seemed to be too far of a leap. It seemed completely unnecessary. Looking back, I came to the conclusion that it'd be better to ignore that character for a whole chapter rather than waste pages and the reader's time with something that serves no purpose. I don't expect any of these three guys meet each other during the story. It's three guys who happen to be fighting one war. Because of that, their threads are independent of each other, and it's a better use of my energy tracking each one from start to finish, locking off the thread, and then moving on to the next character.
I think the desire to have something for each protagonist in every chapter comes from when I wanted to post the novel as an online blog, and in that format where you're pausing a couple of weeks between installments, you want to let the reader touch base with each character if only to remind them of their existence.
Ultimately, this is a case of me mixing a method with the wrong medium.

please clarify my 3 doubts
1)add eax, dword ptr [404000] : means adding the value of eax + the 4 byte value at memory address 40400 and storing it in eax. correct?
2) what does this mean : add eax, dword ptr [eax] ?
3) what does this mean : add eax, dword ptr [eax+00404000] ?
and how does the registers get related to memory?
the instruction : dec [eax+401000]

The ongoing renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement is expected to be discussed during their meeting. Freeland met with Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo on Monday in Toronto.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in Davos today where he will deliver a speech on corporate responsibility and the role of women. The speech is set to start at 11:30 EST.

Negotiating teams have been in Montreal since Sunday for two days of pre-round talks. Agriculture negotiators met Sunday and Monday.
The sixth round of NAFTA negotiations is expected to wrap up Jan. 29, when trilateral meetings between the North American ministers are to be held.

Victoria's Secret, a subsidiary of L Brands Inc. (LB), has its own branded credit card called the Angel card. Here is a discussion of the card's benefits, drawbacks, and the type of consumer for whom the credit card is best suited. It's chief competitors with similar cards are Gap and Lane Bryant.
Where the Angel Card Works
Issued by Comenity Bank, the Victoria's Secret Angel card can be used for purchases online at VictoriasSecret.com, at a Victoria's Secret store, or in a PINK store. It's also accepted at Bath & Body Works, another chain owned by L Brands, although purchases there don't earn any reward points.
key takeaways
- Victoria Secret's Angel card works at the brand's stores and website, and also at sister companies PINK and Bath & Body Works.
- Victoria Secret's Angel card has three tiers, depending on how much a cardholder spends each year, which carry different amounts of rewards and perks.
- Angel cardholders earn one point for every dollar spent.
- As with most proprietary store cards, Victoria's Secret's Angel mainly works for those who regularly shop the brand.
How the Angel Card Works
Victoria's Secret cardholders earn rewards according to the value of their purchases, both online and in-store. There are three different reward tiers: Angel, Angel VIP, and Angel Forever, which reflect the amount of money spent on a rolling 12-month period. All cardholders earn one point for each $1 of net new purchases on their Victoria's Secret credit card. Once a cardholder earns a certain number of points—spends a certain dollar amount, in other words—she is upgraded to the next level.
The first tier is the basic Angel card. Angel cardholders earn triple points on all bra purchases, free shipping for qualified purchases (above $50), and one triple-point day of their choice. In addition, Angel cardholders get a cash birthday treat each year the card is active and a $10 reward to use on future purchases.
The second tier is the Angel VIP card. Cardholders qualify for this tier by earning 250 points on their Angel card in a rolling 12-month period. Angel VIP cardholders accrue points at the same level and rate as an Angel cardholder, and receive the same annual $10 reward and birthday treat, but they accrue additional benefits: a halfway-to-birthday treat of $10 and a 15% discount on the anniversary of their sign-up.
The top tier is the Angel Forever card. To qualify, the cardholder must earn 500 points on their Angel or Angel VIP credit card within a rolling 12-month period. Additional perks of being an Angel Forever cardholder include $15 birthday and half-birthday treats and a 20% anniversary discount.
(Note: All these benefits are accurate as of July 2019).
Other little perks and special events occur each month. To maintain the tier, a cardholder has to keep spending the same amount each year; otherwise, the card reverts to a lower tier.
Victoria's Secret also offers a PINK Angel card, which carries all the same benefits as the Angel card.
Terms and Conditions of the Angel Card
Like most store-branded credit cards, the Victoria's Secret Angel charges a hefty amount of interest: as of July 2019, the advertised annual percentage rate (APR) was 27.24%. It's a variable rate, which fluctuates with the prime interest rate. No interest is paid if a cardholder pays off her entire balance by the due date each month, and the payment due date is at least 25 days after the close of each billing cycle.
Again, like most store cards, the Angel card has no annual fee, but there are charges for late and returned payments. If a cardholder is late paying her bill, she should expect a fee of up to $39. Fees on returned payments can go as high as $25. Of course, as with any credit card, late payments can damage the cardholder's credit score. Cardholders should thoroughly read their cardholder agreements for full details.
Victoria's secret offers card applications on its website. Not everyone is eligible, though. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age, have a valid government-issued photo ID and U.S. Social Security Number, and must be a resident of the United States with a valid mailing address. Comenity Bank verifies personal information and obtains a copy of a consumer's credit report when making its decision to extend credit to a potential cardholder.
The credit limit on the card depends on the applicant's personal credit history and finances. That being said, store credit cards often seem easier to qualify for than general-use cards. Since the Angel card doesn't cost anything to own, obtaining and using one responsibly can be a way for someone with a limited credit history to build up a good record.
Proprietary store credit cards like the Angel are officially known as closed-loop or single-purpose cards.
The Bottom Line
As is the case with proprietary credit cards, the Angel card only works with one merchant—Victoria's Secret (and its corporate sister retailers). While it carries various little perks and privileges that make cardholders feel like part of the Victoria's Secret family, its primary benefit is that it accrues points that translate into money for or discounts on future purchases. Often, you have a limited amount of time to use these rewards. So overall, this card is best suited for consumers who already spend money early and often at Victoria's Secret. Those who aren't big fans of the brand will find the Angel card has a pretty limited wingspan.

Scott, Kate (2009) A procedural analysis of 'This' and 'That'. UCL Working Papers in Linguistics, 21, pp. 151-181. ISSN (print) 0956-7194Full text not available from this archive.
In this paper I consider the role of demonstrative determiners in a relevance theory based account of referring expressions. I argue that 'this' and 'that' encode procedural information relating to the relative proximity of the intended referent. In certain cases, this procedural information will contribute to reference resolution by either ruling out other potential referents or making the intended referent more salient. In such cases the speaker restricts the set of potential referents to a point where a representation of the intended referent is the most accessible in the discourse context. In other cases, the procedural information is not required for reference resolution, but may be used by the speaker to encourage the derivation of certain inferences, thus contributing to the implicit phase of interpretation.

Buying Rare, Supreme gold
zigozag posted a topic in Want To Buy (SFI)Attention, Wurmians! I am willing to buy all rare gold you have! Or at least as many as i can afford. Why? Because i like shinies, of course! Check your magic chests, check your storage alts, check yo wives, check yo kids, if you want to make some coppers or silvers and help me add more rare gold on this carpet. Details follow (under the carpet). Rares = 10 copper each Any QL and weight will do. If the lump/ore has 90+dmg, i will pay 1/2 of the price for it. CoD to Zigozag without any questions if you've got a few. You might want to leave a post in this thread or PM me prior to sending, but it is not necessary. If you happen to be an owner of a rather big stock of rare gold, PM me on the forums or ingame to negotiate pickup. Supremes = 20 copper each Any QL and weight will do. If the lump/ore has 90+dmg, i will pay 1/2 of the price for it. CoD to Zigozag without any questions if you've got a few. You might want to leave a post in this thread or PM me prior to sending, but it is not necessary. If you happen to be an owner of a rather big stock of supreme gold, PM me on the forums or ingame to negotiate pickup. Fantastics... Sell them to Vortexxx If you don't like Vortexxx, go away I can accept these for 50 coppers each, but PM me on forums or ingame first, please. PS I will try to keep this updated in time so that I wouldn't run out of funds while you're sending me precious metal. I do not expect too big supply of these, but if it so happens that i won't be able to pay for a CoD'ed lump, i will return it ASAP and compensate mailing fee if needed.

MONTREAL – The Montreal Impact announced on Sunday that goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau has been loaned to Ottawa Fury FC, the Impact's affiliated club in the USL, for the 2018 season.
"During the off season, Maxime met with Rémi and stated his desire to play regularly during the 2018 season. After discussing with our affiliated club we felt this would be a good scenario and Maxime accepted the loan," said technical director Adam Braz.
Crépeau, 23, started three MLS games in 2017, making his MLS debut on July 29 at Red Bull Arena. He also started all four Canadian Championship games last year.
