On the SS Astraios we detected a gravitationally massive object that shouldn't have been there. We were going to investigate it. Enroute we found a damaged craft and detected one life form on a nearby asteroid (named: Aviana Pacem). We rescued her but she seemed to be scared.
The massive gravitationally object appeared to be the an artifact, an Elf ship. Elfs are mystical beings, often nice and friendly but not seen much.
She escaped the attack of the Hirogen and therefore lost track of her friends.

Aviana Pacem - The alien who we have found
On a away mission to investigate a gravitational microlensing body (in the direction of the Crab Nebula from Astraios), we encountered a distressed alien craft. The craft, a transport of the Elven species had been in a skirmish with the Hirogen.
While Tactical was busy with scanning the vicinity of the Hirogen the captain opened a audio channel to the escape pod we had discovered on a nearby asteroid. Aviana Pacem was on board that pod together with a few others. She told us that they where wounded and needed treatment and that the Hirogen where behind this attack. We transported them on board directly to the medical bay together with Dr. Alia Soulstar. After proper treatment the captain promised them to help to get back to their home...
The Elves are moving to our world at Astraios Prime to seek new place to call home *to be continued*

What Happens After Death?
Bill Henness
Most people believe they will continue to live after their death. Christians believe two different things occur after they die and non-believers believe nothing happens after they die. Lets look at what the bible says for the sake of those who may believe the bible.
Jesus allegedly said: ", I am the resurrection, and the life; he that believes in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whosoever lives and believes in me shall never die...." (John 11:25,26)
"And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust." (Acts 24:15)
"Now is Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen; and if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ, whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised; and if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain, you are yet in your sins. Then they also who are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." (1 Cor. 15:12-19)
"But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection; on such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." (Rev. 20:5,6)
"Behold,. I show you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." (1 Cor. 15:51)
Then there are some Christians who believe as soon as they die they are conscience in Paradise.
"For to me (Paul) to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor, yet what I shall choose I know not. For I am in a strait between two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better." (Phil. 1:21-23)
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven, If so be that, being clothed, we shall not be found naked. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened; not that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life." (2 Cor. 5:1-4)
Of course all these Christians, whether they believe in going immediately after death to be with Jesus or if they believe in the resurrection of the dead; all of them merely believe and have faith they will live again after their death. There is no proof. They believe the proof of this is the resurrection of Jesus, and there is no proof of that either. They merely believe it.
Then there are the rest of us, whether agnostics, atheists or theists, who believe when we die we just cease to exist forever. "Rest in peace."

I agree with what's been said. But I also think people should stop looking for quick fixes or harrasing their body beyond repair. Visiting a doctor when its absolutely necessary should be the plan and if its a minor setback then changing habits and diet should be adopted. Also I find many people are over relying on medicine, I was promised a near normal life by my surgeon that would be 4-6 bms a day. I am 7 months post takedown going 8 times. It doesnt bother me one bit. I stand up between gatherings, parties , meetings and use the washroom, I fart crazy big and laugh if someone does, I have a life I couldnt even imagine with UC, I couldnt even think of being in a relationship, having to go out with friends. My surgeon told me this was the CURE and I took it that way and I am not letting anyone else make me feel any other way. What is destined will happen.
The main reason I opted for the surgery was I wanted to quit all meds permanently and have a control of life. I pretty much have both. Many times people forget with UC/Crohns they went the exact same or even more times with blood and pain to accompany.
All said its overall a good place, everyone has to vent out his anger/thoughts/joys. Not everyone gets the same results. Hats off to those who battle this thing without fretting about it.
You are very fortunate to be off meds (& one of the very few) however we all know that J-Pouch surgery or a Colectomy leading to an ileostomy/colostomy is NOT a cure. A cure would be an option where we get to keep our colons. We are missing half of our digestive system at the end of the day and although we can do many things to feel better, our bodies simply cannot handle things the way they used to! Again, this may seem negative so it is hard to find a balance between being blunt and negative!

I am – by nature – a rule-follower, a people-pleaser, a performer. I crave affirmation, blue ribbons, good grades. All my life I have worked hard to mold myself into the appearance of a good girl — a good daughter, a good student, a good wife, a good mother, a good Christian.
Most often, my motives for being so good have been pretty self-centered. I want people to respect me, like me, approve of me. Even if I don't much like you, I want you to adore me!
And I've set out on Operation GoodJenn the same way many of you probably have attempted to measure up. I've set my sights on my behaviors and outward appearance, and I've tried my best to chisel myself into the model of a perfect Christian girl.
All too often, though, my efforts have resulted in being what Jesus called a whitewashed tomb — all shiny, happy and respectable on the outside but irritable, resentful and dead on the inside. After years and years of Operation GoodJenn, I realized that good grades and blue ribbons and accolades and people-pleasing do not satisfy my soul. All of that frustrates and exhausts me. It is a heavy burden because I was not made for this. I was not made to focus my mind and heart on myself. I was made to look to God, to seek after Him.
For so many years I understood that I could not make myself good enough for God to initially love me, that He loved me and saved me purely by grace. Yet I was trying to live as a good Christian all on my own. I was behaving as if I could somehow sanctify myself by cleaning myself up and keeping myself good. I was behaving as if I could earn God's approval and favor and maybe some heavenly brownie points by looking like I had my act together.
But I've been learning that God doesn't expect me to make straight A's in life. He doesn't expect me to look perfect. He doesn't expect me to get my act together and behave the right way. God does not give me a checklist and then stand back and watch as I perform or master or accomplish each item. That might be my natural tendency, but that's not God's M.O.
No, He saves us by grace and He sanctifies us by grace. He gives us His very own Spirit and then He begins to supernaturally transform us from the inside-out.
Remember the other day when I told you that, at my very core, I don't want to focus on my kids' behavior, that I want their hearts? That's how God feels about us! He wants my heart! And when my heart is fully His, knowing Him better and loving Him more, then the good outward appearance will follow (though it may end up looking very different than my own finite mind could have conjured up!).
So I'm learning to give up my rule-following, people-pleasing, performing tactics. I'm learning to love God with all my heart and seek Him, letting Him gently chisel me into the model of the girl He wants me to be. I'm learning that His grace truly is enough – enough to save me and enough to change me and enough to carry me each day.
How about you? Are you a performer? Are you exhausted and frustrated and about to give up because you can't measure up? Let me encourage you – give up. Give up. You're right; you can't measure up. You were never meant to measure up on your own. Accept grace. Love God; seek after Him; and watch His plans for you unfold. Join me in GRACEland.

By Afton Cavanaugh*
I. INTRODUCTIONThis Article asserts that financial education should be included in public school2 curriculanationwide to avert future financial crises driven by the decisions of the financially illiterate, andto ensure economic equality among all Americans. Why? Put simply, the world revolves aroundmoney. 3 In America, money is necessary to a person's basic survival because money is requiredto purchase food, shelter, and medical care. 4 Not only is financial literacy helpful to ensuringsurvival, but it is also an important factor in achieving one's potential if one hopes to do morethan merely survive in this country. 5 The American Dream6 has brought many people from far* St. Mary's University School of Law, May 2013. I would like to thank Professor Angela Walch for her constructive criticism,guidance, and encouragement on all aspects of this Article; the best teachers are those that treat you as an equal and push you tobehave accordingly. I would also like to thank David Ryan Quintanilla for spending hours debating this topic with me on the long roadbetween Austin and San Antonio, Texas. A very special thank you is owed to Nina and Stefanie Cavanaugh, both of whom have spentcountless hours supporting and encouraging my endeavors, to say the very least of their contributions. Thank you to my three littlegirls, Brianna, Aurora, and Harmony, for always serving as my inspiration. Above all, thank you to my wife Mariah-your strength andintelligence brighten my world every day; the accomplishments of the last few years are as much yours as they are mine.
1 See generally ROBERT T. KIYOSAKI & SHARON L. LECHTER, RICH DAD, POOR DAD: WHAT THE RICH TEACH THEIR KIDS ABOUT
MONEY-THAT THE POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS DO NOT! (1998) (providing a financial education for those who did not learn important
concepts from their parents, or who did not have parents capable of truly teaching them).
Money is one form of power. But what is more powerful is financial education. Money comes and goes, but if
you have the education about how money works, you gain power over it and can begin building wealth. The
reason positive thinking alone does not work is because most people went to school and never learned how
money works, so they spend their lives working for money.
Id. at 19.
2 In order to achieve true economic equality and stability it would be beneficial to ensure financial literacy is taught in private, charter,
and home schools as well as public schools. However, the federal government has even less ability to impact curriculum decisions at
those institutions. A discussion of how to incorporate financial literacy programs into these alternative education options is beyond the
scope of this Article; however, as a first step the government could incentivize the use of such curriculum through grants, much as it
would be doing in public schools under the proposals included in this Article.

23, 2011)) (creating the advisory council and subsequently terminating it on January 29, 2013). The economy is negatively impacted
when Americans are forced to focus on daily financial struggles for survival. See generally BARBARA EHRENREICH, NICKEL AND

Extreme liquidity and the availability of high leverage have helped to spur the market's rapid growth and made it the ideal place for many traders. Positions can be opened and closed within minutes or can be held for months. Currency prices are based on objective considerations of supply and demand and cannot be manipulated easily because the size of the market does not allow even the largest players, such as central banks, to move prices at will.
There are two types of accounts in Ethereum: normal accounts, holding ether that can only be moved with a private key and contracts, which hold ether only controlled by their own internal code. In this section, we focus on the former. The remainder of this guide will be dedicated to the latter.
There are seven Major currency pairs on the forex market. Other brackets include Crosses and Exotic currency pairs, which are less commonly traded and all relatively illiquid (i.e., not easily exchanged for cash).
worst article ever, get your fact right, you state different speeds for the same card (RX vega 64) and clearly you dont have a clue, i mine with rx580 and my hashrate its 30 with bios mod and propper patched drivers for mining
As for strategies, a good starting point is this video: http://vantagepointtrading.com/archives/12644 looking at simply identifying trend channels and watching for consolidations along the trend channel and trading the little breakouts which result. The same method can be applied with day trading. But if swing trading we are looking to make a 1-2% per week, as opposed to per day. I go more into how manage these trades and increase probabilities in the upcoming book.
If you want to find out how many euros it costs to buy one U.S. dollar we need to flip the pair to USD/EUR. To find out this rate, divide 1 by 1.3635 (or whatever the current rate is). The result is 0.7334. It costs 0.7334 euros to buy one USD based on the current price. The price of the currency pair constantly fluctuates, as transactions occur around the globe, 24-hours a day during the week.
Ethereum blockchain applications are usually referred to as DApps (decentralized application), since they are based on the decentralized Ethereum Virtual Machine, and its smart contracts.[5] Many uses have been proposed for Ethereum platform, including ones that are impossible or unfeasible.[73][74][47] Use case proposals have included finance, the internet-of-things, farm-to-table produce, electricity sourcing and pricing, and sports betting.[47][75] Ethereum is (as of 2017) the leading blockchain platform for initial coin offering projects, with over 50% market share.[76]
Ethereum mining rig is essentially a GPU (Graphic Processing Unit) setup. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, Ethereum mining rig is not at all complicated and does not need expensive setups. ETH mining rig consists of graphics cards, motherboard, monitor, GPU, mouse and a cooling pad which will not only make your mining hash rate impressive but will also help in the generation of more rewards.
A: This guide covers using Windows 10 (make sure it's 64 bit). There are also various distros of Linux that can be used (not covered here). But Windows is the easiest to configure and get up and running fast. There is no Mac version at this time.
If you're a hardcore gamer or if you want to find the best card for mining ethereum, perhaps you'll find that this particular card is worth the look. This card features DirectCU II technology, which transports heat away from the GPU, allowing it to outperform reference designs, giving you up to 30% cooler gaming performance. The patented wing-blade desin delivers maximum air flow, thus creating 105% greater static pressure over the heat sink while operating 3 times quieter than reference cards.
Ethereum mining is difficult on the Windows. Nonetheless, you can mine Ether using a GPU or a CPU device with Windows 64 bit. By running your CPU device, you generate 0.15 Mega Hashes. On the other hand, using a decent GPU miner with sufficient storage, you can reach the 25 Mega Hashes mark. Thus, with regards to the overall efficiency, and after considering the total electricity charges, a GPU is definitely worth a purchase even if its cost is $200.

The VMA's. It was crazy, wild, IT was amazing. Let's start with Gaga's performance. OMG that was ICONIC. I was watching this with my mom and sister and it was just so hard to fangirl because if i did so my mother would turn the television, she thinks i need to grow up. My sisters reaction to Gaga was, "Look at her she looks so fake!" "SHUT UP LET ME WATCH THIS!" She was so annoying. But overall the performance was AMAZING. My favorite part of the performance was when she was singing the bridge, you'll know why. Now did everyone see or hear Gaga talking to One Direction? Oh god that was very nice of her. People say it was really smart but I doubt she was being nice to 1D just because the cameras were around. I'm just happy all of this is helping the Applause single sales go up but also people having respect for her. She's a business woman, she makes everyone happy.
Did you all see Gaga's ass? Omg I know I did! I always do. Gaga's ass has been a fascination to the fandom for a long time and the only reason why people are talking about it now is because Kevin Hart was talking about it. Now have you seen Miley Cyrus's ass? EW! It's so nasty! They are hanging out and ew. Not sexy.
But to make it all make sense here is a short summary of the VMA's
– everyone learned to appreciate Lady Gaga's fine ass
– Miley Cyrus disturbed the country with a hoedown throw-down 2.0
– Justin Timberlake basically had his own concert
– Taylor Swift h8's you
– Blurred Lines won nothing
– a basic performance by Katy Perry
– 1D and Gaga are BFFS

Cockyboys: Benjamin Blue Tops Brandon Jones For The First Time
Benjamin Blue has been tearing up the gay porn world since he debuted as a CockyBoy and Brandon Jones can not wait to get at that best little ass. But he's going to have to wait just a little bit longer simply because Benjamin is topping for the 1st time!
The chemistry amongst these two is obvious as they look into each others eyes while they exchange a hot makeout session. Benjamin drops to his knees and pulls Brandon's lovely large uncut cock out of his pants. He is impressed by the dimension of that device and immediately will take it in his mouth. Swirling his tongue about the sensitive cock head ahead of swallowing it all the way to the balls. Brandon moans in appreciation as he's taken care of to a blowjob by one of the hottest guys he has ever observed.
Benjamin pushes Brandon back on the couch and crawls on top of him. He is eager to consider being a top and Brandon is entirely into flipping so they never waste any time. Benjamin slides his large lovely cock into Brandon's ass and slowly fucks that sweet hole. Gently gliding his cock in and out of his ass before picking up the tempo and fucking him a bit rougher. He pounds Brandon's ass very good and hard as he stares into his eyes.
Brandon switches positions so he can ride Benjamin's large dick. It is amazing to see this little twink's rock hard cock slamming in and out of his older buddy's ass as the two grunt and groan in pleasure. Brandon is loving the rough fuck he's getting but he's got his eye on Benjamin's ass so he flips the little twink about and mounts him from behind and truly shows him how to fuck.
The camera captures the blissful expression on Benjamin's cute little face as Brandon's cock slides into his ass. Brandon slowly operates that hole while whispering gentle words of encouragement to his fuck buddy. The two fuck in a tangled mess of limbs on the couch ahead of Brandon moves Benjamin to his knees and fucks him doggy fashion.
Brandon pounds Benjamin's best little twink asshole till he's pleased then the two switch positions one more time. Brandon tells Benjamin he wants to see him cum and Benjamin is satisfied to oblige! He seems right into Brandon's eyes as his cock pounds his ass then shoots a massive load of cum all over Brandon's stomach. This pushes Brandon over the edge and he pulls his cock out and aims it at Benjamin's smooth twink belly. A second load of cum flies by way of the air and these two studs are perfectly invested. These two are fucking hot! Make sure to check them out.

Tso seeks power show
Mark Butcher
18/07/2015 10:55am
World-rated super-flyweight Rex Tso is seeking to unleash new found force after adding a strength and conditioning coach to his arsenal. The crowd-pleasing Tso, who could turn a pillow fight into a war, is rarely in a dull match though a lack of concussive, one punch power could previously have been viewed as a weakness. That may be about to change.
Tso, 16-0 (9 KOs), faces Thai Khunkhiri Wor Wisaruth, a career super-bantam, in a catchweight bout at the Cotai Arena in Macao on Saturday night with a knockout on his mind.
Hong Kong's first ever pro boxer was originally slated to face Kohei Kono for the WBA title on the 'Victory At The Venetian' card before boxing politics scuppered that opportunity. The Japanese fighter was subsequently injured while preparing for a defence against compatriot Koki Kameda in the U.S. and the title is currently in limbo.
Meanwhile, Tso marks time over eight rounds, boosted by new strength and conditioning coach Ross Eathorne and the results in just 10 weeks have astonished the Hong Konger and his sparring partners.
"Now I feel more stable and feel the power," Tso told Boxing Monthly. "Those I spar with comment that they feel a difference. When I first started boxing I hated weight training! But now my body feels more used to it. Ross always makes the programmes fun.
"First time I sparred [for this camp], I threw a one-two 'bang!' and my sparring partner doesn't move," said Tso who has been working with Filipino brothers Rey and Randy Megrino. "But a few weeks later after conditioning I threw 'bang bang' and he went 'uuugghhhh!' I saw the difference. Not only the power. First week he punched me and felt very strong, but now I can concentrate and block his punch."
"I have thoroughly enjoyed the process," added Eathorne. "Rex is an elite athlete and a professional. I've worked with other [sport's] world champions and New Zealand cricket captains, other athletes, but this guy's attitude is very humble. After about a month, I knew if I asked him to do something, I knew he would do it. As a trainer – that's just fantastic. Normal clients just roll their eyes when you ask them to do something hard. He just does it.
"Because you have the continuity of training. You can see the weights go up every week and even he's surprised saying, 'I never thought about picking up that before.' We still have a lot more to improve on, but it's a great experience to work with him."
Tso's war against Filipino buzzsaw Michael Enriquez in March was one of the fights of the year with the Hong Konger taking ridiculous punishment at times, yet roaring back defiantly before triumphing on the scorecards.
"He was a really tough fighter," southpaw Tso told BM. "I just wanted to try another technique. I never tried infighting like that before and soon I had trouble and needed to handle it. In this fight, I will try more to get the distance [right], find clean shots, pick up points and be more safe!"
Yang-Cuenca and Tso-Wor Wisaruth will be streamed live in the US on Toprank.tv from 6am ET with most of the undercard.
Nonito Donaire-Anthony Settoul, as well as Jose Ramírez's bout with Ryusei Yoshida, will be televised to the U.S, via same-day delay, on Solo Boxeo Tecate on UniMás, beginning at 11pm ET/PT.
Victory at the Venetian will be broadcast live on BoxNation in the UK from 1.30pm.

Dear Lord,
You are the only one who can help me.
I have taken on too many burdens.
I know I have made mistakes,
and that I am not perfect,
and that my pride is my undoing.
I ask simply for an easing of my burdens,
that I may be closer to my family
and to serve the world the way you wish
to do that which you created me for
Free of the stress which distracts me.
I know you have the power to help,
I am willing to accept you again,
You are the one who can help me.
Please, grant me relief and guidance
So that I may do your work.
I ask forgiveness of the sin of pride.
I ask forgiveness of the sin of lust.
I ask forgiveness of all other sins.
And pray to you for that which one you,
in your power and glory, can grant.

Other factors, such as subscription costs, product quality and customer support, still held sway. But LeBlanc, vice president of human resource operations at CareFusion, a health care organization in San Diego with 15,000 employees worldwide, wanted systems that would be intuitive and easy to learn not just for HR staff but for line managers and employees as well. \n\nLeBlanc knew his biggest return on investment would come from HR systems that were heavily used.

"Acts of terrorism cannot be divided into Hindu and Muslim. They have to be seen as acts of terror, acts of violence and should be dealt with firmly, irrespective of caste, creed, religion or community of the accused," said the Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh. But why Muslims are still carrying the burden of being terrorists and most of the young Muslims are brutally tortured? Though investigations have shown the clear strategy of these fanatics, to first cause the blast happen and then blame Muslims. Despite these new revelations, neither the police nor the state governments have apologized or come up with any resettlement or compensation package for those wrongly arrested and tortured. Also none of the police officers or men involved in the fake investigations have been penalized. Most of them have received their promotions and enjoy cosy positions.
The blast at the dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti in Ajmer on 11 October 2007, was considered a dastardly form of terrorist attack coming as it did in the wake of the Mecca Masjid blasts in Hyderabad in May the same year. This was the third attack on a Muslim religious spot since the serial blast in the vicinity of a mosque in Malegaon in September 2006 where three person were killed and 17 injured. Predictably, "Islamist" groups were held suspects and local Muslim clerics were taken in for questioning. However, with fresh arrests during the past year and a half, investigators have reason to believe that Hindu right-wing groups were involved not in one state but at many places, and the perpetrators belonged to different parts of the country. In Nanded in 2006, a blast occurred in the house of an RSS worker when they were fabricating a bomb. In Kanpur, two RSS workers were killed while they were assembling bombs. There is a definite strategy adopted by Hindutva fundamentalists in their acts of terrorism. The BJP and the RSS, instead of defending these people, must come clean and control these rabid fundamentalists.
It is time to take on both Hindu and Muslim terror together. Terrorism should be taken seriously and all those involved in the ideology of hate should be punished.

This means that a member of Miami Club Casino can also join up with any of the other Deckmedia NV sites to create extra variety, whilst sticking with a brand that they can trust and respect.
Deckmedia NV is a strong team with an eclectic range of talents and assets, they are primarily made up of businessmen and businesswomen who have experience in the casino industry, including ones who have operated land-based casinos and others who have worked in the business side of the gambling industry in one way or another. These people all pooled together their talents in an effort to create a string of websites that could cater for gambling fanatics and casino fans all over the world, with a focus on US customers who typically struggle to find reputable and fair online casinos.
Due to the solid position of Deckmedia NV in the gambling industry, Miami Club Casino received much support and many customers as soon as it was launched. Deckmedia NV seem to know what they're doing when it comes to creating, launching and maintaing gambling websites and it didn't take them long to get the word out. Now, just two years after the launch of Miami Club Casino, hordes of gamers and gamblers have signed up and play on a regular basis.

The fact that Deckmedia NV have 7 other casinos, operating 3 other technologies, also allows web masters to offer their customers a lot more choice when it comes to online casino gambling.

It doesn't have the history yet, but it's currently in the process of creating that history by developing sites that are loved, respected and revered in equal measures by players everywhere.

rmid starts the activation system daemon so that objects can be registered and activated in a Java VM.
rmid [-port port] [-log dir]
The rmid tool starts the activation system daemon. Before activatable objects can be either registered with the activation system or activated in a Java VM, the activation system daemon must be started. See the RMI specification for details on how to write programs that use activatable remote objects. The daemon can be started by executing the rmid command with no options, as follows:rmidstarts the Activator and an internal registry on the default port of 1098, and binds an ActivationSystem with the name java.rmi.activation.ActivationSystem in this internal registry. To specify an alternate port for the registry, you must specify the -port option when starting up rmid, for example:rmid -port 1099starts the activation system daemon and a registry on the registry's default port of 1099.
- -C<someCommandLineOption>
- Specifies an option that is passed as a command line argument to each child process (activation group) of
rmidwhen that process is created. For example, you could pass a property to each Java Virtual Machine spawned by the activation system daemon:This ability to pass command-line arguments to child processes can be useful for debugging. For example, the following command:
rmid -C-Dsome.property=valuewill enable server-call logging in all child Java Virtual Machines.
rmid -C-Djava.rmi.server.logCalls=true
- -log dir
- Specifies the name of the directory the activation system daemon uses to write its database and associated information. The log directory defaults to creating a directory, log, in the directory in which the rmid command was executed.
- -port port
- Specifies the port rmid's registry uses. The activation system daemon binds the ActivationSystem, with the name java.rmi.activation.ActivationSystem, in this registry. Thus, the ActivationSystem on the local machine can be obtained using the following Naming.lookup method call:import java.rmi.*; import java.rmi.activation.*; ActivationSystem system; system = (ActivationSystem) Naming.lookup("//:port/java.rmi.activation.ActivationSystem");
- -stop
- Stops the current invocation of rmid, for a port specified by the -port option. If no port is specified, it will stop the rmid running on port 1098.
- Used to provide the system a path to user-defined classes. Directories are separated by colons. For example,.:/usr/local/java/classes

Rawson Brook Farm
In the Berkshires, bakers make our bread, artisans produce handmade skincare and farms supply our produce.
This embarrassment of localvore riches extends to Rawson Brook Farm in Monterey, MA, with its incredible chèvre made from high quality pasteurized goats milk.
Monterey Chèvre is available in three flavors: original, thyme with olive oil or chive and garlic and is the perfect spreadable snack on bread or crackers.
While the texture is similar to cream cheese, the comparison ends there, for all the cheese is handmade and produced from healthy goats - so the taste of the goat milk does not overwhelm the chive and the garlic flavor.
Available for purchase at Guidos or at the Berkshire Co-op, visitors are also welcome to the small, family run farm.

Ranting Ahead...Proceed at Your Own Risk!
Yesterday one of the daycare boys slapped Nat on the tummy and left his hand print. I didn't see the altercation, so I'm sure Nat was annoying him to some extent. HOWEVER, when I hear, "Well, she was doing..." before I hear, "Gee, I'm sorry..." I get very frustrated. I see this a lot, where kids will always see themselves as the victim, and not take responsibility for their own actions. There's always some excuse for their bad behavior. I see it so often that it makes me afraid for this up and coming generation. How will they deal in the real world?
When Mike got home I was in the front yard cooling my self down, as it was just a trying day all around. I had a kid that was back-sassing me, the incident with Nat I had just dealt with, and one of my 3 year olds had a potty accident, so I was at the end of my rope. When he saw the welt on Nat's tummy, he went to talk to the young boy himself. He said in essence, "You don't hit girls, and you especially don't hit MY little girl." I was glad that Mike had a talk with him. I really think that's one thing that's lacking in a lot of kids' lives (the boys I see especially)---a strong male influence.
Our tax lady gave us bad news last night about how much we owe. This was going to be one of the first years in a long time we were going to be able to file on time, but now that we've heard how much we owe, we will have to file an extension instead. And we won't get the President's incentive either--it will just go towards paying our debt. It really doesn't pay to be self-employed. Bah!
I got a call today from a local Lodge saying they will hire me for the summer running the snack bar and waitressing, so some of my stress about supporting myself once daycare is closed has been alleviated. I've never waitressed in my life, so it will be a new experience for me. I do know enough to know that I will work my fanny off!
I will be pursuing finding a "real job" with benefits during the summer and hope that this fall I will have a more promising employment.
Mike and I had a big argument this morning. I feel bad that I can't find enthusiasm for his endeavors, but we are in a real financial bind right now, and if I don't see something actually happening, I can't get excited about it. In other words, he was telling me that he wants me to support his goal of going big with his barbecue business, and how it will solve all our problems, but I just feel we need to do something concrete now, rather than just talk about something that may happen. I'm feeling pretty low that I can't have faith in his dream. I think there's a good possibility it could happen in the long run, but I want to fix our present situation first.
This is also the week of the anniversary of my mom's death. I try not to relive those last days, and after 6 years, I thought I was getting past it, but I'm still finding myself thinking about each day leading up to the day she passed away. I always try to do something special to remember her on that solemn anniversary. I would rather remember, than to try to ignore it. I actually think the weeks leading up to her death were the worst, and the day that she died I felt a sense of relief and happiness that she was no longer being tortured to death by cancer. So I think part of my problem this week is that I'm also feeling highly emotional.
I'm still hopeful that this week will redeem itself. After all, it's only Tuesday... I guess it will either improve or be The. Longest. Week. Ever!

Oh man. :( I wish I could come down there and give you a hug.
What a week! (so far) I'm so sorry you're having a nasty time, especially right now at the reminder of your mother's passing.
I'm sending you all my best wishes and hopes that things will improve, that you'll be able to find the employment you need, and that your heart and mind will be blessed with peace in your remembrance of your mother.
I'm sure you'll be an awesome waitress! (not like me - I think I would totally suck at that!)

I wish I could give you a big hug too! Those anniversaries are hard. It's been 6 years since I lost my dad and his birthday in May and the anniversary of his death in October are still hard.

Yi! Must be some bad karma in the air, or something. I didn't get my dad's tax stuff from the tax lady until today at 11:30 and then she had to resend it 3 times because she kept getting it wrong. I was stressed to the max about the whole thing.
OTH, My mom's been gone 10 years now and I think of her every Dec. 18 (her birthday) and Mar 19 (the day of her death.) It gets easier but I still miss her.
Still...bad day for you. Hope things go better for you tomorrow.

Project Description
Orange chicken glazed meatballs (Whole30 compliant)
1 pound ground chicken or turkey
¼ cup shredded carrots
1/2 small/medium sized onion finely minced
1 egg
1/4 cup almond meal/ flour
1 tablespoon coconut flour
2 cloves fresh grated garlic or 2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger or 1 teaspoon ground ginger or 1 drop doTERRA ginger essential oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon avocado oil or some other high temp cooking oil like safflower or coconut oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup chicken stock
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
½ cup coconut aminos
1 clove garlic or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger or ½ teaspoon ground ginger or 1 drop doTERRA essential oil
1 pitted date
½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons arrow root + 2 tablespoons cold water (combined) to make a slurry
4 drops doTERRA wild orange essential oil or 2 tsp orange zest
Place a medium sized skillet (cast iron if you have it) over medium high heat and add the sesame oil. Next add the carrots and onion. Saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium sized bowl.
To the same bowl, add the ground chicken, egg, almond meal/flour, coconut flour, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Using the same skillet you cooked the carrot and onion in, add the avocado oil and place over medium high heat. Form the chicken mixture into balls (a little smaller than a golf ball) You can use a melon ball scoop to do this if you have it as the mixture will be very moist. (It makes approximately 12 -15 balls)
Place the balls in the skillet and allow to brown. Once brown, flip them over and brown the other side then transfer them to a plate. Depending on your size skillet, you may need to work in batches. Don't worry if they are not cooked through completely, they will finish cooking in the sauce.
Next, add the chicken stock and date to a microwave safe container (I like to use a glass measuring cup for this). Place in the microwave for 30 seconds just to heat and soften the date. Add the chicken stock, date, apple cider vinegar, coconut aminos, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to a high speed blender or food processor and blend on high until combined and the date breaks down.
Pour the sauce mixture into the same skillet you cooked the meatballs in over medium high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add in arrowroot & water mixture while whisking vigorously to combine. This will thicken the sauce. Lower the heat. Add the meatballs back in and cover for 15 minutes allowing to simmer over low-medium heat.
For Whole30 compliant, serve over cauliflower rice or sautéed vegetables. It is also delicious over white or brown rice!

Yet, to be accepted and recognised as an advisor by several leading players is extremely satisfying."
A veteran and respected professional, his experience comprises transaction, valuation and advisory services to privately-owned and listed companies, banks and private equity groups based in India and abroad. He is known for his significant experience in general business consulting as well.
Under his leadership and guidance, the company has expanded the range of their core advisory services. He quips, "We have also added internal audit and risk consulting as a significant service area with much success in bringing value for clients."
Ready to embrace change and evolve, Thacker says, "As an advisor, it is important to foresee the changes and prepare to guide your clients meaningfully. Sometimes, it is also an opportunity to initiate a change."
Restless and forever looking for new opportunities and expanding his portfolio, he is keen to take on IBBC related work, strategy advice, advisory to assist in deepening supply across multiple smaller markets, risk consulting and internal audit for hotels — besides the present core service areas.
He is of the opinion that although a fair amount of opportunities exist in the hospitality industry, especially from the owner-operator perspective, the sector continues to be fundamentally under-supplied in relation to the potential. He adds, "There are several opportunities there. For instance, geographic and product diversification, as well as the spread and expansion of Indian hospitality's global footprint. Also, opportunities offered by the digital world and creating a blend of products because users often don't know what they want."
Risks, according to him, need to be taken when required, albeit carefully measured ones. "As an advisor, it is for me to guide my clients so that they take calculated and measured risks, consistent with their risk appetite and long-term objectives."
Thacker confesses that work-life balance was an alien concept till some time ago, but he has embraced it now. "This concept was non-existent, particularly in the demanding field of accountancy and consulting, and more so when one was taking up a totally new area (hospitality consulting). I enjoy travel, which is part of my work. For relaxation, I take long walks, watch sports, read and listen to music," he says.
He continues to draw inspiration from people around him, "Multiple people have inspired different elements of my life and work. My parents were a major inspiration. Within the industry, I would count Mr. PRS Oberoi as an inspiration."

Van Amersfoort Racing will expand to four cars for the final round of the 2018 European Formula 3 championship.
ADAC Formula 4 driver Frederik Vesti will make the step up to F3 with the squad at the Hockenheimring. After two years in the German F4 championship, he hopes the move to F3 will be fill time next season.
"Over the past two seasons, I really have enjoyed working with Van Amersfoort Racing in the ADAC Formula 4," he said. "I have been so proud to be with the team. It has been a dream come true for me racing with them and I have learned a lot – developing as a driver and person.
"It is a big step racing an F3 [event] after only a few days testing, but I'm more than ready for it!
"I can't wait to be in the car for the first time. I want to thank my Danish backers and partners that made this possible for me even before anything has been signed for next year. How lucky I am!"
Vesti finished fourth in this season's ADAC F4 campaign, taking victories at Hockenheim and the Nurburgring.
The Dane racer now returns to the Hungaroring for four days of testing before he makes his F3 debut.
Team boss Frits van Amersfoort is confident he will do well in next month's event.
"In the last two years, we have actively supported Frederik in the development of his career and it has been great to watch him mature, both in and out of the car," he said.
"This year, particularly in the second half of the season, he has shown great progress on every level and we can see he is ready to make the next step. We have faith he will do well during his debut and learn a lot in the highly competitive F3 series.
"We will give him the chance to familiarise himself with our Formula 3 car in four days of testing, already starting this week at the Hungaroring.
"It is nice to see another driver graduating from Formula 4 to Formula 3 within our team, which is exactlyt he philosophy of our single seater staircase."
Vesti will join Artem Petrov, Keyvan Andres, and Sophia Florsch at Hockenheim on the 13th and 14th of October.

Irish Language – A Love/Hate Relationship
01 Oct
The Irish language, it's a relationship with the Irish people which can be best described as love/hate. Unfortunately for those of us who may have struggled speaking as Gaeilge it's more often than not hate. Years of rote learning being drilled into your brain will do that to ye unfortunately. But there's a lot to be said about our own humble little language all the same.
But let's start with the (minor) negatives. Right, Irish grammar. It's ridiculous. Straight-up nonsensical. Anyone who has taken a class in Irish will be able to recall the many times it felt like someone was just taking the piss when it came to rules of the damn language. In hindsight, with the Irish being Irish, they most likely were taking the piss when creating the language. A very basic example; in Irish the verb is at the start of the sentence. This flies in the face of pretty much every other European language where the verb is usually at least two or three words into the sentence. When the vast majority of learners' first language is English, this can make Irish somewhat frustrating. And then there's fadas. Be honest, you just put them on top of most vowels in a sentence cause it looked right.
Arguably where we went wrong as a nation in trying to spread our native language was the learning process. Actually, no argument at all, it's easily where we fecked up. It didn't work fifty years ago, it still doesn't work today. It turns out a solid decade plus of solid rote learning guarantees only one thing; that you'll know how to ask your teacher can you go to the jacks. Or the ol bosca bruscair if you were paying attention. Well that's essentially what your primary level education will guarantee you. Moving onto Secondary School is where the aul Gaeilge breaks most of us. Now, some of us bridge the gap between the primary and secondary with a summer trip to the Gaelteacht. And while sent there kicking and screaming most return with a newfound appreciation for the language. It's usually that newfound appreciation that makes them suffer through Honours Level Irish though.
Once you get to the tail-end of the Irish educational system that resent towards Irish reaches fever-pitch. First you have the Oral, that ridiculous situation where you try and blurt out incredibly bland and fully prepared scenarios to a stranger. Then you have the Irish language listening exam…. "Léigh anois go cúramach, ar do scrúdpháipéar, na treoracha agus na ceisteanna a ghabhann le Cuid A… BEEP BEEP" Nothing more needs to be said. And then final nail in the coffin that was your desire to learn Irish, Leaving Cert prose. What utter nonsensical shite that was. And how learning off answers to incredibly bizarre Irish stories and poems was meant to help you achieve fluency in the language is beyond us. Peig Sayers can go shite.
But while the Irish government may have done everything in their power to force us to resent our own language, there's still a massive amount to be said for it. For one, it's a great little tool to have when in foreign lands and you may or may not want to keep something on the down-low. Or if you just want to impress someone with your wonderful Celtic tongue. Whichever. While you can be sure to never be too far from an Irish head when abroad the same cannot be said for fluent speakers of our language it has to be said. Another wonderful aspect of the Irish language is how ridiculously old school it is. Seriously, to say hello, and say hello in return, directly translates as: "God be with you" and "God and Mary be with you" Christ. And you wouldn't think that Catholicism is deeply ingrained in our society would you? That's not the only aspect of our culture that is deeply ingrained in the language, there is apparently over 19 ways to say drunk in Irish. To be fair there's probably even more in English but our creativity is endless when it comes to describing that particular state of being. There's also 23 different ways to say 'potato'. Yeah, we do nothing to tone down the stereotype it has to be said. But most importantly we can't forget that it is an inherent part of our culture and identity. We may get the learning process entirely arseways, and yes, it may be slightly outdated in today's world, but to let the Irish language slip into obscurity would be a tragedy for our country. Let's not let that happen, why not try and learn a cupla focal today.

I was SO angry with my ignorant, racist, short-term thinking co-worker today!!! Absolutely livid. Thanks for the calming Keanu-pic :-)
Well enjoy it, because I'm not really a "pastel-ly" person. I did it in white at first, but I don't know how many people like stark white desktops, so then I did the grey, and once I got gooofing around with the hues, there was no choosing which one to put up so I went for all of them.
If you have photoshop (or similar) you can lay about any partial transparent gradient over the white one for a nice effect.
seafoam all the way. love it, baby. ;)Posted by: Lori on April 24, 2003 09:10 PM

You should not rely on an Internet forum to answer nida questions, this is far too serious, detailed and "visual" to be able to do this online. You can ask where to find a rav who can help questions if you do not have one already. Also, in some cases, the right rav will detect a medical issue and refer you to a doctor with specific instructions - again not something you want online strangers to help with. Kind regards. – mbloch Aug 24 '18 at 4:35

MINI ALL4 Racing engage in ultimate challenge on 2013 Dakar Rally
This year's rally route is anticipated to be the toughest ever held in South America.
Lima, Peru – The Monster Energy X-raid Team and its quartet of MINI ALL4 Racing cars are all set to contest the 35th Rally Dakar, which gets underway in Lima on Saturday, January 5, 2013.
Every member of the X-raid team is determined to repeat the squad's 2012 triumph by claiming victory on the 2013 Dakar Rally.
This year's rally route is anticipated to be the toughest ever held in South America, with competitors driving 8,000 kilometers (4,970 miles) through three countries (Peru, Argentina and Chile), during 14 days of action to reach the finish in Santiago. The overall route is far more intense than in previous years, and there will be no easy start for the four MINI ALL4 Racing machines as the first three days take place across challenging desert sand dunes.
Monster Energy X-raid Team
The X-raid team won the Dakar Rally for the first time last year, with legendary super-star driver Stéphane Peterhansel taking victory at the wheel of a MINI ALL4 Racing machine.
For the 2013 event, the team's driver line-up comprises 10-times winner Stéphane Peterhansel (French, age 47) and long-term co-driver, Jean-Paul Cottret.
Behind the wheel of the the other three MINI vehicles will be driver, Joan 'Nani' Roma (Spanish, age 40) and co-driver, Michel Périn; Leonid Novitskiy (Russian, age 44) and Konstantin Zhiltsov; and Krzysztof Holowczyc (Polish, age 50) with Filipe Palmeiro.
In total, the X-raid team's crew members have 20 years of Dakar Rally experience.
Stéphane Peterhansel
Team leader Stéphane Peterhansel is a remarkable record breaker, a legend in his lifetime, and once again starts as one of the favorites to win in 2013.
With 23 Dakar starts under his belt, Peterhansel is the most experienced and most successful driver, with more wins than anyone else (six wins on bikes, four in cars) earning him the nickname "Mr. Dakar".
MINI ALL4 Racing
The 4.3-meter long MINI ALL4 Racing car is already a proven Dakar winner – claiming victory in 2012, with four other X-raid team machines finishing in the top 10 that year.
For the 2013 event, the MINI ALL4 Racing squad sports new, high-visibility colors, and technical upgrades to comply with new regulations while also enhancing pace and reliability.
The new rear spoiler is designed to produce extra downforce, guide hot air from the engine bay over the roof and extract air from the cabin to improve ventilation.
The MINI ALL4 Racing cockpit provides plenty of space for the two-man crew. Each member is secured by six-point harnesses in specially-formed Recaro motorsport seats and wears a HANS safety system head and neck support.
The specially made dashboard displays the bare minimum of information in three parts: driver, center, and co-driver.
For example, vital information, such as speed, oil pressure, temperatures and electronics information is displayed centrally – visible for both driver and co-driver.
This center stack can be replaced (if necessary) in just three minutes, optimizing servicing times.
The twin-turbo diesel engine is a 2,993 cc power unit based on a BMW production engine and was built by BMW Motoren GmbH in Magna Steyr, Austria.
The engine is designed to be used in endurance races under the toughest conditions, and generates over 300hp at 3,250 rpm, with immense torque of almost 516 ft lb (700 Nm) at just 2,100 rpm.
This enables the MINI ALL4 Racing to hit a top speed of 178 km/h (110 mph) with all-wheel drive traction delivering sensational acceleration on all types of surface.
The MINI ALL4 Racing is equipped with a Sadev six-speed, sequential manual gearbox, Xtrac differentials, and weighs 1,900 kg (empty).

Looking for opinions. I used Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax (spray on) for my car and the water just beads off - great stuff! I was think how would this work on the hull. I have always been told not to wax below the waterline because the water can adhere to some waxes and slow performance, but I was thinking this may be different and has strong water repellent features. I would love to hear your thoughts!

How do I know whether I'm connected to the wi-fi/internet? It seems as if my email gets updated immediately – but when I try to access something "out there" on the internet, I get 'can't connect' errors.
There is a small icon in the upper left of the ipad screen — is that an indicator for the strength of the connection? It seems to alternate btwn just the dot being lit and the smallest of the half circle marks being lit
How is it that email gets updated when I can't connect to the internet? (I hear beeps from my ipad even before I see new mail in Outlook).
Could the wi-fi signal in my office be that sporadic? What would make it fluctuate like that?
