These are tools that are known to work well with James. The purpose for this page is for users to be able to express what tools they use, how well they work, how to use them, etc. From time to time, the James project will harvest this information and put it into more formal documents, such as the FAQ.
Russell Coker's postal program - Used for SMTP/POP3 performance/stress testing.
TestMaker - Open Source protocol-based testing tool
JAMES RemoteManager - a telnet-based tool, supported only up to JAMES version 3.0-M2, discontinued as of 3.0-M3
yaJamesManager - a web-based management-tool for Apache JAMES written in Java as a webapp, claimed to support JAMES 2.2 and 2.3
JConsole - the basic general-purpose tool for management of JMX-enabled components; maybe a little bit too general-purpose, but does the job; only recommended for use at localhost for security reasons
jManage - a general-purpose web-based JMX management tool
jwma - An opensource Java webmail implementation. (Hmmm project seems to be asleep for over 7 years now, and only supports IMAP mail servers!)
KHWebMail - J2EE Webmail implementation, support James to manage user in web page, support multi-accounts, multi-level folders, drafts etc. (commercial). (As of June 2009, this link is broke and there does not appear to be any website for plmatrix.com)
Other Java Mail Servers
- alive projects
Java Email Server - SMTP, POP3 - doesn't have a great name or large community base, but seems interesting. (GPL - development ongoing)
- historic projects
JAva Mail Server is another all-Java mail server. They have their own approach to mailets (GNU - development stopped).
GoodServer, Inc. makes an all-Java mail server. (commercial - does not look alive...)
CRSEmail is an aged codebase. (GPL - development stopped)
Related Java-mail related libraries
JSMime is a Java library to sign and/or encrypt E-Mails using the SMIME standard using many different algorithms and key strengths. Testing is done for compatibility with Netscape and Outlook to open the mails, decrypt and verify the signature.
Legion of the Bouncy Castle has a number of crypto-related libraries that can help you use S/Mime in mailets and matchers within James.
Sieve Filtering
Sieve is a mail filtering language developed by Carnegie Mellon University. The James project has yet to integrate Sieve, but here are related links to give you an idea of what we're thinking.
CMU lib Sieve - core library
SmartSieve Graphical Editor - web based graphical user interface for creating and managing sieve scripts
Web Sieve another web based interface for creating Sieve scripts
Database Clients
Squirrel SQL Client Graphical SQL client for browsing database structure and tables. JDBC based.
LDAP tools
LDAP Browser Graphical tool for viewing and editing LDAP repositories. Free lite version of commercial tool
Open LDAP Open source LDAP server and tools
Open LDAP for Windows Free port of openldap to Windows platform
LDAPd Apache Avalon-based LDAP & JNDI Server.
LDAP browser-editor Free, developed in Java, pretty complete. Last changes 2001/04/25.
jxplorer Free, open source, developed in Java, pretty complete. Last changes 2007/04/01.
Note: the last two, in combination, allow you to do almost everything (but both are needed because they have different functionalities).
File Comparison Tools
Winmerge Open source comparison Tool
Free, online, color difference tool - This tool is useful for comparing config files. I recommend that you put the new James config file first, and your own config file second. That way any difference from the new James config will appear highlighted in red (cultural warning color), and your changes in green. One tricky thing is that the script only highlights the character text, so you have to be really careful to spot color coded XML comments that enable or disable a section of code.
Examdiff - Free visual color difference tool. Also comes in commercial version.
Araxis Merge - a commercial file and directory comparison tool. Allows interactive merging and editing of files.
Note also that popular IDEs and editors frequently have file comparison tools built in. Of particular note are JEdit and Eclipse. Eclipse also allows you to compare files directly against a CVS repository.
Open AntiVirus - A Java-based virus scanner.
tcpview - a free utility that shows you which processes are using which sockets - very useful.
tail - a tail based command line free utility for winnt.

Dating with Debt: When "Netflix and Chill" meets paying the bills
It's the beginning of a perfect modern romance: You met on an app, and after engaging in some above-average banter, you've been on two drink dates and out to dinner at least once. You've finally saved their number in your contacts under their real name (as opposed to "John/Jane Bumble"), and you're feeling good about moving out of the "hanging out" stage toward something more serious.
And then, out of nowhere, your potential future mate drops a bomb —they've got debt, and lots of it. They're carrying $100K+ in student loans. Do you walk away or stay? And if you do stay, who pays for dinner?
We've got debt on the brain year-round here at SoFi, but with Valentine's Day just days away, we've got love on the brain too, so we surveyed 2,000 Millennials to learn more about how they think about debt in the context of their love life.
Finding a Financially Savvy S.O.
We all have certain qualities we look for in a potential match, and certain things we'd rather avoid, but where does debt fall into that mix? Of the Millennials we surveyed (ages 25-35), 20.9% said debt was a big deal breaker; it's the second most concerning red flag when it comes to new romances. The first: being a workaholic, which is apparently worse than having no career prospects at all. Workaholics ranked top of the no-go list for 21.4% of respondents, while only 16.4% said a dead-end job would make them skip a second date. So when writing your next dating app profile, remember it's all about positioning. "Overworked MBA grad with tons of debt" may not sound enticing to future suitors, but "ambitious young professional with tons of potential" will.
We were also curious about how much thought goes into someone's future earning potential for daters—only 11.3% said they keep their eyes out for graduate degrees on dating profiles. What was more interesting, though, was the confidence Millennials had when it came to their ability to bring home the bacon in a relationship: 24.5% said they don't consider earning potential when deciding who to date, because they're earning enough to support both members of the couple. (We'll tip our hats to that.)

Breaking the News
We all bring baggage into new relationships, and talking about that baggage (debt included) can be anxiety-inducing. More than 39% of Millennials would rather disclose a pre-existing STD to a new partner than confess their outstanding debt.
Assuming you're part of the 60.7% who would rather talk debt than STDs, you might be wondering: when's the right time to bring it up? There's certainly a sweet spot here between too early and too late, but the vast majority of Millennials (57.6%) say that only once you're seriously considering combining households and sharing expenses—whether that means moving in together or getting married—should you disclose your debt. Twenty-nine percent have the money talk earlier, once they're exclusive with a new partner, but roughly 8% of Millennials seem to prefer the 'rip the bandaid' approach, telling their date about their debt early on, even as soon as the second date.
Whenever you do get around to having the tough conversation about debt, we're of the mind that honesty is the best policy, and most Millennials seem to agree. Unfortunately, not everyone plays by this rule: nearly 24% of our respondents told us they've been lied to by a partner about how much debt they were in.
Can You Get Dumped Over Debt?
At SoFi, we think of many types of debt as an investment made in your future self—like student loans to finance a degree, or a personal loan that you've used to consolidate credit card debt and get your finances on track. 55.4% of Millennials can, like SoFi, see the person beyond the dollar signs, and say they wouldn't dump someone over debt. 39% on the other hand, aren't so sure—they say it all comes down to how much debt we're talking.
Those stats may hold true for dating, but when it comes to making the decision to settle down, how much debt is too much? As you might imagine, the higher the debt level, the more likely Millennials would consider breaking it off: 24.4% say it would take $100K or more of debt for them to consider not committing to a potential partner, and 22.8% say anything from $50,000-$100,000 is a big enough burden for them to think about finding another mate. Sixteen percent have a much lower threshold, and say that just $10-50K of debt is enough that they'd consider walking away.
Your Funny (Money) Valentine
These results give indebted daters a lot of reason to be optimistic, because there's no reason that debt should get in the way of your love life. (And to be honest, if someone was going to date you over debt, they probably weren't the right one for you, anyway.)

text: I have had my phone for a month now and this is the first time I have tried to text a pic. It seems like I am missing an app to send a pic through texting. Or is there something that I am doing wrong. The other thing that I can't seem to get to work is voice activated bluetooth. It is a Plantronics 520, and was working great with my old phone (non android), but I can't get it to work with my Ally. Any suggestions for this also? Thanks

Today is all about duality. Is a tragic event better written about as a personal essay, or as straight reportage? Should visitors to LA check out the Book Festival or the Grilled Cheese Festival? Tough decisions abound. At the heart of the episode is our comparative study on two essays: Jo Ann Beard's "The Fourth State of Matter," and Jim Mann's "The Physics of Revenge." Each one unpacks the same cultural event using wildly different techniques. Which form of nonfiction will prevail?

I truly appreciated the suggestion of these essays, and what ended up being my introduction to Jo Ann Beard, whom I will read from now on. I loved both and it was my first time coming to the party having read the material beforehand. Great insights – I always enjoy the comedy and literary banter. Dissention was sadly absent, but in this case, highly improbable!

On breezy mornings, before the noon heat sets in, the Baltimore-Annapolis Trail is a giant magnet for joggers and cyclists racing by in loose T-shirts and Lycra shorts.
Now the 14-mile trail that has become a favorite refuge for fitness fanatics is attracting local businesses.
Glen Burnie's oldest bike shop is moving from the downtown shopping district to the trail this fall. The Bike Peddlers, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary, will relocate in October to a building on Central Avenue, a stone's throw from the hiker-biker trail.
"It's been surprising how many people come in here already off the trail," said Ronald W. Freeland, while fixing a crippled bike inside his store on Delaware Avenue.

- 4 years ago
- Wedding: June 2016
So I know that my SO is planning a proposal (I looked at rings at his request, he's been a couple of times, he's told me he has a plan and a date – sometime before Christmas!), but today we had a fight about it and now I don't feel excited at all.
Well, our 3.5 year mark is tomorrow and he's been planning a "surprise date" and won't tell me anything we'll be doing. He has also banned me from his phone and was texting more than usual but made sure I couldn't see the screen. So of course, a teeny part of me thought something proposal-related was going on. I didn't tell him this, but then he told me he was nervous about the date because he "didn't want me to be disappointed" about something "he didn't want to say" but that I knew what he was talking about – a proposal.
I'll admit I was a little bummed. Somehow it turned into a huge fight and he ended up telling me that he's been feeling like I'm pressuring him and wanting him to just "break down and do it" whenever I bring up anything marriage-related. I had no idea! I was bringing it up (too much, I'm sure) because I'm excited and happy, and he always insisted that the discussions never bothered him. He also started talking about how he wants it to be perfect and that if he can tell I see it coming, it'll take all of his excitement away. I was kind of like, "You know the only way I would never ever expect it would be if we had never discussed marriage, right?" which isn't how either of us would have wanted it.
In short, we had a huge terrible fight (lots of tears and guilt) and I feel like the whole experience is tainted. I don't want to remember the lead-up this way. I'm also now terrified of somehow the proposal not going the way he wants it and then him being disappointed.
Has anyone else felt like this, or had some kind of fight that put a damper on the excitement? Did you get over it – and if so, how?

Check it out: "The Past as a Prologue: The Future of the U.S. Military in One Graphic"
The author is Daniel Sukman -- strategist in the U.S. Army and a member of the Military Writers Guild.
Interesting and ambitious look at US military operations since 1980, positing logical operational postures for the Combatant Commands on that basis. Starts off with a fascinating world map, and then goes through the COCOMs individually. Very nicely executed.
The conclusion caught Dave Emery's eye, so he sent it to me.
The New Map…The Non-Integrating Gap aligns with U.S. Operations over the past 30 years
Interestingly, this review of operations since 1980 confirms the Non-Integrating Gap theory proposed by Thomas Barnett in his seminal book, The Pentagon's New Map. According to Barnett, areas of lesser development — Latin America, the Middle East, and areas of the Pacific — constitute this gap. Moreover, use of the military element of national power tends to occur in these areas. Nations outside of the gap tend to resolve conflict without outside intervention.
To address global requirements, Barnett introduced the concept of the Leviathan and Sysadmin force. In Barnett's paradigm, the focus of the Leviathan force is major combat operations. The focus of the Sysadmin force is other missions ranging from humanitarian assistance to "Phase 4" nation building activities.
The creation of the Sysadmin and Leviathan force as envisioned by Barnett may not achievable in an era of fiscal constraints. However, the joint force should prioritize the ten missions outlined in the 2014 Quadrennial Defense Review per geographic area of responsibility. Using the past as a prologue indicates the feasibility of this approach.

I don't anticipate it would have much impact on the negotiations themselves, because I think my counterparts in the European Commission would recognize that statements that might be made might not necessarily represent the views of Canada in the negotiations. I may get certain questions posed to me, which I would anticipate, but I don't think they'd expect those statements to represent negotiating positions until they saw me endorse them in the negotiations.

|Featured Band (7): Morning Parade Aims For the Stars
|Written by DJ Space
|Wednesday, 08 December 2010 23:00
"We'd like to play the first gig on the moon," Steve Sparrow the frontman of UK band Morning Parade recently stated. For the time-being at least Morning Parade will have to settle for more realistic ambitions though it is clear it has set its sights on being a stadium-band. "We have a rule," the band told the Guardian. "Whenever we write something, we ask ourselves, 'Can you see 100,000 people singing this back to you?' If not, we get rid of it. We want to be huge." Through its "anthemic, electronicised rock for the masses" and a newly released debut single, "Under the Stars," Morning Parade is truly aiming for the stars.
"They fit the niche marked 'robust indie with stadium ambitions, passionate vocals and penchant for rave-rock rhythms' like a glove," Paul Lester reported in the Guardian. "A Delphic with the common touch."
"We'd be lying if we said that wasn't our ambition," Sparrow told Spinner. "The first gigs that I went to at 14-years-old were like Muse at Docklands Arena and that was amazing. We like the smaller venues as well but want to write songs that fill arenas."
Formed in Harlow, Essex by Sparrow and bassist Phil Titus, the band's line-up consists of childhood friends Steve Sparrow (vocals, guitar), Chad Thomas (guitar), Phil Titus (bass), Ben Giddings (keyboards), and Andy Hayes (drums).
When asked about the formation of Morning Parade, Sparrow talks about his life growing up in Harlow. "There wasn't much to do and there wasn't much to aspire to," Sparrow explained to Spinner.
"It put us into a spell of drug taking and drinking too much and we then just started writing these songs that were kind of moody and we universally thought they could reach the kind of people that we wanted to hit."
"Youth" (opening verse):
"Sit and wish the world would settle down,
A free download of the track "Youth" is available by registering your details with Morning Parade on Facebook. "Youth" can be listened to here.
"We wanted to write big anthemic songs and take it back to the old school, really," Phil Titus confirmed. "We weren't hearing the music that we wanted to hear."
"It's down to the styles that we've grown up with. We've been influenced by Britpop and now with Andrew and Ben we've got a lot of dance influences and we're bringing that all together."
According to Sparrow, a concert the band attended with Faithless and Coldplay on the same bill became a significant influence on Morning Parade's musical direction. "Faithless totally rocked a festival crowd with 100,000 people jumping up and down," Sparrow related. "They were then followed by Coldplay who played to the same crowd but there was no movement and we were thinking, why can't a band do both? Why can't dance music encompass proper song writing? We try to mash all that together."
Morning Parade's biography states, "It's music with transformative power, with redemption at [its] heart."
"[They] craft dramatic, heart-on-the-sleeve anthems... fusing electronics with guitar parts and keys with self-assured emotion," Illegal Tender wrote.
"Their pulsating synths, energetic guitars and candid lyrics fuse to create a supercharged sound," Music-News reported.
"Their combination of yearning, gutsy singing, gritty guitars and trancey keyboards and beats somehow works," Paul Lester told Guardian readers. "Not that we like it particularly... but we can imagine it catching on."
"It's all about the songs, really," Sparrow clarified to Spinner. "The most important thing for us is the relationship between the lyrics and the melody but also having something that people can connect with rather than it being some random crap about girlfriends or whatever. We try to keep things about what everyday people experience and the things that we all think and feel. We really like the idea of mixing the rock element with the dance element."
Morning Parade's limited-edition 7" debut single "Under the Stars" was released by Parlophone at the end of November.
Although they have not yet been made available for download, an additional two 7' singles have been released to form a 3 x 7" set.
The single "Under the Stars" has received support across UK radio stations BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, XFM, Absolute, and Q-Music; with BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe championing the band on his website.
The official video can be viewed here .
"Their debut release, 'Under the Stars' was picked up on by Radio 1's resident tastemaker Zane Lowe and the track also made it to the soundtrack of TV series, 'The Vampire Diaries'," Spinner reported. "Along the way, they've been supported by Dutch radio station KX and there have been suggestions that if their music isn't in arenas by the end of 2011 then something has gone seriously awry."
A video of the band performing the single live at Cambridge Junction can be viewed here .
Morning Parade has been recording its debut album at studio 13 in West London, home from home to Damon Albarn of Blur and Gorillaz, and the record is expected to be released early next year.
The track "Marble Attic" is available as a free download through Illegal Tender and can be listened to here.
During the past year, Morning Parade has supported, Feeder, Ash, Good Shoes, Reverend And The Makers, and Goldhawks. The band recently announced its first ever UK headline tour, which is due to commence in February next year.
A video for a live performance of the track "Pieces" can be viewed here.
Morning Parade are "most likely to... achieve mainstream infiltration," Paul Lester wrote in the Guardian.
"It's down to the songs," Sparrow concluded in his interview with Spinner. "Strip everything away and you've still got great songs that will last a lot longer than most of today's bands will. We're trying to be a band that writes good songs that will last".
Even though its music is obviously designed to infiltrate the mainstream playlists and will continue to gain significant media exposure, and in time Morning Parade may indeed come to be "huge," there is still something a little unconvincing and possibly dishonest about this band. Perhaps doubts manifest because naked ambition sounds in every note, which leaves an intuitive gut feeling that it is trying just a bit too hard to become the next U2?
"The Essex five-piece say they only write songs they can imagine 100,000 people singing along to. Sadly, this seems likely to happen," Paul Lester concluded for the Guardian.
Morning Parade takes itself seriously, but it won't be walking on the moon just yet. In the meantime this band can expect to play under the moon and the stars at arenas and festivals while it continues to reach for the stardom for which it clearly yearns.
Tour dates:

Durham, town (1991 pop. 38,105), county seat of Durham, NE England, on the sides of a hill nearly encircled by the Wear River. The town's small factories produce organs and carpets. Noteworthy is the castle (1072), now occupied by part of the Univ. of Durham (founded 1832). In 995 the relics of St. Cuthbert were brought to Durham (then Dunholme), and a church was built as his shrine. The present cathedral, begun on the same site in 1093, is considered the finest example of Norman architecture in the country. It contains the tomb of the Venerable Bede (d. 735).

Hello Friends
So I am coming to terms with the fact that Sale-A-Bration is wrapping up soon, although I must say I am pretty sad. The SAB products this year have been among my favourite freebies. Ever!
But until it is over, I am thankful for SAB and the chance it gives me, every year, to reward my friends with extra perks. For instance, I've had 6 hostesses qualify for extra Hostess Dollars. Their parties surpassed a certain level, so Stampin' Up! awarded them with a $40 Hostess bonus - each!
I've had friends with huge wish-lists who have signed up to be on my Team, and have gotten $190-worth of wonderful products for only $125! It's like Christmas all over again!
And I cannot begin to count how many of my customers have qualified for 1, 2, 3 or even 4 FREE SAB products!
And then there are the products that I have gotten to earn and play with myself. I am still only beginning to discover the potential of all of them. For instance, tonight is the first time I have given much attention to the Sweet Sorbet Accessory pack (I have used the coloured twine before but not the adhesive cork pieces). Let me tell you - these cork pieces are FUN!
I made this quick Thank You card using the Retro Fresh designer paper, some gold Baker's Twine (pulled into individual strands and glued down) and some cork pieces from the free SAB Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack. These cork bits are too cute. And so easy to use. You'll even notice that on top of my Baker's Twine strands I've cut out my own starburst(ish) shape from the extra bits of adhesive cork - and affixed it to the twine pile. That and a few well-placed strands of gold from the Baker's Twine means this card was super easy to put together, and definitely one-of-a-kind!
I wish SAB wasn't ending soon. There are still things that I would like to get. How about you? Have you managed to snag all your favourite freebies? If not, there is still time. Contact me today. Or come to to my Last Chance for SAB Class next Tuesday night from 7-9. You'll make some absolutely gorgeous cards. And you'll see just how versatile these SAB sets really are. Don't miss out. Get yours before it is too late.
In the meantime, I hope you are all having the kind of day that is one-of-a-kind .... and in a GOOD way!
But whether this day is going well or not, remember to be Thankful!! Always.
God Bless, ~Cynthia <><

Think twice before slathering on the sunscreen this summer
You may want to think twice before you slather on the sunscreen this summer – or any time of year – as chances are you're exposing yourself to numerous toxic chemicals, which...Read More
The skin, hair and nails are all part of the integumentary system, meaning they protect the body from damage, loss of water and act to waterproof and regulate the temperature of the body.
The skin is the pivotal part of the integumentary system and the largest organ in the body. It plays a number of vital roles for the body, including acting as a barrier to infection, absorption of sunlight to form vitamin D, retention of water and insulation. For these reasons it's vital to look after your skin so that it can continue to act as the body's main source of defence against ill health.
Hair and nails provide further support to the body. First and foremost our hair keeps us warm, to the hair that covers our arms or the hair on our head. Other areas of hair, for example our eyebrows and eyelashes act as protection from dust and dirt from going in our eyes. The nails cover the delicate tips of our fingers acting as protection for the digits but also giving them support, making it possible to pick things up and type on a keyboard.
Your skin, hair and nails are constantly exposed to the elements. Yet, in an effort to protect them we also expose them to environmental toxins… especially when lathering on sun cream and other commercial lotions.
How can you take better care of your skin, hair and nails and prevent them from getting damaged by chemicals in skin products and other environmental toxins? How do you treat and control common conditions like eczema, psoriasis and rosacea without resorting to pharmaceutical topical lotions and drugs?
There are many natural alternatives that will help you fight the visible signs of ageing, while also protecting your skin, hair and nails. The Daily Health is here to help you explore all your options.

Among Western laymen, few realize the full breadth of knowledge commanded by an accomplished Zen master. We may appreciate their expertise in the subtleties of the medical, the physical and the metaphysical, yet much of their insight in matters more mundane gets overlooked.
Consider the lesson of one Zen master on the basic subject of arithmetic. He presents his students with this simple story.
"In our village, there once lived this man," the teacher begins. "He had five hundred dollars, and over the course of his life he gave away four hundred dollars. How much money did the man have when he died?"
Quickly and confidently, the students reply, "One hundred dollars!"
"No," says the teacher, "you are mistaken. It might look that way, but the deeper truth is that if he had five hundred dollars here on Earth and gave away four hundred, then at his death he would have had four hundred dollars. Because in the end, all you have is what you have given."
Song of the Day: "The End" by The Beatles.

Here's the latest update in the continuing saga of UT Professor Eric Pianka, and the articles from the Seguin Gazette-Enterprise.
I got up early this morning, and made several phone calls to try and get to the bottom of why all mention of Pianka had been expunged from the paper. Bottom line: big misunderstanding, and the articles are now back online. It had absolutely nothing to do with the paper trying to dodge responsibility for its actions, or the paper not standing behind the articles, or any of the other possibilities that I had thought were likely. It appears that I didn't have the full story, and jumped to some conclusions in the earlier articles that were not entirely justified.
Here's the details on how I figured this out, for those interested in checking my work:
The first call I made was to the Gazette Enterprise. There, I spoke with the managing editor of the paper, Mr. Christopher Lykins. When I told him that I was calling regarding the Pianka matter, he informed me that all decisions about that were now "being made by the home office," and that his paper no longer had "any jurisdiction" over those decisions.
That fired up my curiosity a little more. Andrea Bottaro and Reed Cartwright (of The Pandas' Thumb) were both kind enough to track down the ownership of the paper, and provide me with some contact information for the "home office." The Gazette-Enterprise, it turns out, is owned by a company called "Southern Newspapers Incorporated," which owns a number of small papers in the south. The staff at the office then referred me to Mr. Bill Cornwell, publisher of the Brazosport Facts, as a corporate contact.
All of this led me to believe that I was getting a very polite runaround, but that belief was quickly shattered when Mr. Cornwell returned my call. He was actually quite surprised to hear that the articles were not available online. Apparently, the company had directed that the transcript and the audio recording from the speech be removed because both were at least partially incomplete. That was apparently misunderstood, with the result being that all of the materials were removed. He has since gotten back in touch with the Gazette-Enterprise, and the articles are now back online.
My impression that the Gazette-Enterprise was trying to hide from their responsibility was wrong. This will serve as a lesson to me to make sure that I do my research more thoroughly before posting in the future.
As a final note, I think that this whole affair should be the topic of more than just blog articles. If anything, it could serve as an exemplar of both the advantages and disadvantages that are present in the new relationship between blogs and the more traditional media sources. It also provides some valuable insights into the way that fast-breaking stories can be used and misused by various factions for political gain, and how those factions can actually shape the story as it breaks. I'll probably post more on this over the next few days, and I'm also working on an article for print publication (assuming I can find someone to publish it).

Treatment Options for Opioid Addiction
The Illinois Department of Human Services, Division of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse (IDHS/DASA) is pleased to announce the establishment of the Illinois Helpline for Opioids and Other Substances. The Helpline is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week for individuals experiencing opioid use disorders, families, and anyone affected by the disease. The Helpline is confidential and free. Helpline specialists are trained in evidence-based approaches to help connect callers with treatment services and recovery support services. To reach the Helpline, call 1-833-2FINDHELP.
Opioids reduce the perception of pain but can also produce drowsiness, mental confusion, euphoria, nausea, constipation, and, depending upon the amount of drug taken, can depress respiration. Illegal opioid drugs, such as heroin and legally available pain relievers such as oxycodone and hydrocodone can cause serious health effects in those who misuse them. Some people experience a euphoric response to opioid medications, and it is common that people misusing opioids try to intensify their experience by snorting or injecting them. These methods increase their risk for serious medical complications, including overdose. Other users have switched from prescription opiates to heroin as a result of availability and lower price. Because of variable purity and other chemicals and drugs mixed with heroin on the black market, this also increases risk of overdose. Overdoses with opioid pharmaceuticals led to almost 17,000 deaths in 2011. Since 1999, opiate overdose deaths have increased 265% among men and 400% among women.
In 2014, an estimated 1.9 million people had an opioid use disorder related to prescription pain relievers and an estimated 586,000 had an opioid use disorder related to heroin use. Symptoms of opioid use disorders include strong desire for opioids, inability to control or reduce use, continued use despite interference with major obligations or social functioning, use of larger amounts over time, development of tolerance, spending a great deal of time to obtain and use opioids, and withdrawal symptoms that occur after stopping or reducing use, such as negative mood, nausea or vomiting, muscle aches, diarrhea, fever, and insomnia. (SAMHSA)
The following links are educational materials, providing information to patients with opioid use disorders:
The Your Doctor Understands Your Addiction series advocates that patients talk with their treatment or other healthcare provider about using medication to assist with recovery, and gives a brief overview of available medications. Download and print the brochure at: http://www.attcnetwork.org/explore/priorityareas/wfd/mat/documents/mat.brochure.pdf
Medication-Assisted Treatment for Opioid Addiction: Facts for Families and Friends provides a good overview of about medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorders including information about available opioid medications and how medications fit with counseling in the recovery process. It can be downloaded to print, or printed copies may be ordered at: http://store.samhsa.gov/product/Medication-Assisted-Treatment-for-Opioid-Addiction-Facts-for-Families-and-Friends/SMA15-4443

That playhouse is insane! Love it! If only my husband knew how to use a hammer and nails I would have him build one- but lets me real he is so not handy.ReplyDelete
Wow - that is the cutest playhouse ever!ReplyDelete
This is truly inspirational! It is darling and absolutely perfect. Bravo! We have a great playhouse, looks super cute outside, but the inside is totally unfinished. Decking out the inside is on the short list for this summer's projects--but seeing this has reinvigorated me to get that thing DONE. Thanks so much!ReplyDelete

Campaign of the Month: December 2007
Cold Blood
Norinaga Kuroda
A Masterless Samurai Now Serving the Red Death
Norinaga Kuroda is a human male approaching middle age whose manner of dress reflects his samurai caste. He wears the guard from a katana (or tsuba) as an eyepatch while his left eye heals. He sports a simple mustache and beard, and his outfit is decorated with the symbol of the Mercykillers, as well as the crest of the Kuroda clan.
Norinaga wears the pair of swords common to all samurai.
Norinaga was born into the Kuroda family, a samurai household in the Prime realm of Katan. The Kurodas were loyal to the daimyo Akada, and were responsible for his lands bordering those of his rival, Lord Kashida.
Norinaga distinguished himself in many defensive actions against the Kashida clan, becoming head of his household upon his father's death, and a trusted advisor to Lord Akada.
But Norinaga could not stop a devious spirit from driving Lord Akada to madness, bringing ruin to Akada's lands and followers. Norinaga pursued the spirit's Kashida summoner across Katan and unto the Outer Planes, slaying him in Sigil with the aid of the Red Death.
Finding the Mercykiller philosophy compatible with his own, Norinaga has sworn himself to the faction, honoring the factol as his new lord.
Norinaga sometimes wonders if his life truly ended when his master went insane. Is the Great Wheel nothing more than a test, to determine whether he can prove himself worthy of a true afterlife by serving the cause of absolute justice? He feels no connection to anything beyond his faction, and therefore has little cause to doubt this conclusion.

Mt Hood
As the winter season rapidly approaches, the Northwest Avalanche Center is preparing once again to provide daily mountain weather and avalanche forecasts for the Olympics and Cascades. Preparations include outreach events, office maintenance, standard training, administrative tasks, weather station installation and repair, and preliminary forecasting for program cooperators such as the National Park Service, Washington State DOT and Pacific Northwest Ski Area Association.
We will begin issuing regular mountain weather and avalanche forecasts when sufficient snow has accumulated at moderate and lower elevations to create potential avalanche danger. Usually, regular forecasts begin mid to late November, but in low snow years the start date can be later. As always, these forecasts do not apply to developed ski areas or highways.
Here are a few general notes regarding Fall avalanches:
During the Fall, the atmosphere experiences significant cooling at higher latitudes. As this cold northern air is mixed progressively southward by Fall storms, pronounced changes in the air temperatures occur over the Pacific Northwest. Wet and cool weather depositing substantial snowfall at the higher elevations can result in locally significant avalanche danger during the Fall. The most likely avalanche problems encountered in the Fall include storm and wind slab and loose snow avalanches. For more information on avalanche problems, please see http://avalanche.state.co.us/forecasts/help/avalanche-problems/.
In the Fall these avalanche problems are usually confined to permanent snow fields on the volcanic peaks and the alpine regions of higher non-volcanic peaks of the Cascades and Olympics. Generally, the shallow Fall snowpack at lower and mid-elevations still has vegetation and other anchors helping to limit avalanche potential. Use standard avalanche risk management if traveling to higher elevations with enough snow to avalanche and stay tuned for updates from NWAC as we get deeper into Fall.
Have a safe and enjoyable Fall and Winter!
The safety information and forecasts on this website are provided in partnership with the US Forest Service, and are intended for personal and recreational purposes only. Safe backcountry travel requires preparation and planning, and this information may be used for planning purposes but does not provide all the information necessary for backcountry travel. Advanced avalanche education is strongly encouraged.
The user acknowledges that it is impossible to accurately predict natural events such as avalanches in every instance, and the accuracy or reliability of the data provided here is not guaranteed in any way. The forecasts describe general mountain weather and avalanche conditions. Local variations will always occur.

|Combined sodium and calcium channel blockade in prevention of lethal arrhythmias.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 12717095 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Anti-arrhythmic compounds with multiple actions reduce arrhythmic death risk in post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients. Sudden death prevention, however, may rely more on implantable defibrillators than anti-arrhythmic drugs due to ineffective pharmacologic intervention. Widespread use of implantable defibrillators should not obscure the need for development of new anti-arrhythmic drugs. This study tested the hypothesis that combined blockade of I(Na) and I(Ca(L)) prevents ischemia-dependent ventricular fibrillation (VF) in conscious dogs after MI. I(Na) and I(Ca(L)) blockade was accomplished with levosemotiadil in 11 dogs known to be at high risk for VF during 2 min of coronary occlusion during submaximal treadmill exercise 30 days after MI. Negative chronotropic effect of levosemotiadil was examined using the heart rate response to isoproterenol and comparing it with response to propranolol. Levosemotiadil prevented VF in 64% (7 of 11) of the high-risk animals. Heart rate responses to myocardial ischemia and to graded doses of isoproterenol were blunted by the high dose of levosemotiadil. Propranolol prevented VF in 73% (8 of 11) of the dogs. Levosemotiadil had approximately one half the beta-blocking activity of propranolol. The combination of I(Na) and I(Ca(L)) channel blockade coupled with partial beta-adrenergic blockade was equally effective in preventing VF as propranolol.

How many words in the English language contain three sets of consecutive paired letters?
That pattern is unique in English, and unique in French and Italian. (irreelles, sottooccupato). It never appears in German, or in Latin except for numbers. It's common in Norwegian and Dutch.
But in English? It's a dead give-away.

Yes, that pattern popped immediately off the page but I still enjoyed the cryp.
It was humorous and timely.
Perhaps you should not be so eager to criticize and spend a little more time recognizing the clever aspects of these puzzles.

By the way, might someone who worked under this person be called a "subbookkeeper"?

I'm not complaining. I was just fascinated at how different is the frequency of this pattern in languages as fundamentally similar as English and German and Norwegian and Dutch.
And "subbookkeeper" is in my Linux system's /usr/share/dict/words.

If I misunderstood your comment, I apologize. It's just that the tone of your remarks often appears negative. Perhaps a positive comment now and then might help.
Also, I don't believe "subbookeeper" is a valid word. I cannot find it in any on-line dictionaries or home references. I did find it cited on the internet but it appears to be invented by some "word afficionado" for the purpose of having an example of a word containing 4 double letters.

/usr/share/dict/words doesn't indicate that a word is "officially" a part of the English language, simply that it shouldn't be flagged as a mis-spelling.

Recently an article in PRWeek asked, Is it time to retire the term 'public relations?'. In my opinion I couldn't agree more with author Jeffrey Sharlatch's take that yes, it might be time for public relations to undergo some new branding.
As a current PR major I have heard every stigma that comes with the term. "Oh you're studying to be a spin doctor?" Or "that seems pretty easy, do you really need a four year degree for that?" Most people are completely unaware of the true breadth of our field, or that PR is anything more than what Aaron Eckhart's character does in Thank You for Smoking. My own father has asked me multiple times to definite my major, and often by the end of my long winded description always concludes, "so it's something like advertising then?"
All these stereotypes are probably why most of large PR firms do not even have the words public relations in their name. Weber Shandwick, Edleman, and JeffreyGroup are just some of the many PR firms that use phrases like "communication strategy," "public engagement," and "dialogue" to describe the role of a PR firm.
Public relations as a field is undergoing a metamorphosis, and I would not be surprised if the term PR did as well. As firms incorporate more digital work and advertising, engage the public in a two-way conversation and use alternative media outlets it would not be surprising to see a re-branding of the field. Although unfortunately I do not see it ever becoming easier to define and explain for curious relatives.

Travel: Cornwall 2014
First of all, I'd like to thank my lovely guest bloggers for posting last week whilst I was in Cornwall. I had 6 lovely ladies write posts on here so you weren't left with nothing to read and to be honest, I've taken a bit of a back seat with blogging at the moment as I've just had so much on. Working, studying and having a poorly 1 year old just don't give me enough time to sit down and get some blogging done. But, hopefully that's about to change as I finish my uni module on Tuesday and work is dying down! So… here's to lots more blogging!
Today though, is a look back at our week in Cornwall in photos. We had an amazing time, yet again, and the weather was absolutely perfect! It was literally like being in another country, especially when we were on the beach and in the sea! We stay in a little cottage near Bodmin that is ran by a lovely couple, Helen & Rob, and has a selection of 3 cottages and also a larger farmhouse that can sleep up to 8 people. It has an on site hot tub, a fishing lake and summer house and also a little golf putting course too! There is access to BBQ's and is also only 20 minutes away from towns such as Newquay, Fowey, Looe, Par and Mevagissey with Truro being only 45 minutes away too! If you're looking for an cheap
ish (we paid £290 for 4 nights in a 2 bed cottage)
, English retreat, I'd hugely recommend staying at one of the
Tor View Holiday Cottages
and you can find out more by clicking the link or emailing Helen
with my referral.
Day 1
- Arriving at the Cottage: We arrived around 5:30pm, unloaded the car and had a wander around the grounds. Me & Adam then had a curry and spent a while chilling out in the hot tub. The advantage of the cottage is that you can pop the little one in bed and lock up then go and have a walk or go in the hot tub and know they're safe.
Day 2
- Healeys Cyder Farm & Fowey (no photos, we took mostly videos - see the vlog at the end)
Day 3
- Newquay and back at the Cottage: Newquay was so quiet so it was lovely to walk around the town and take a look in the little shops and chill on the beach for the morning and because it was such a nice day, we decided to spend the rest of the afternoon back at the cottage and have a BBQ.
Day 4
- Looe and Polkerris Beach: Looe is a lovely little fishing village, just like Fowey! It has lots of little gift shops and pasty shops, obviously and also a little beach too! Because we were off to Polkerris in the afternoon, we decided not to go on the beach here and just had a cream tea instead! Polkerris beach is beautiful. It's small and tucked away in a little cove. There is a pub and a gift shop, that's it. It's not commercial and perfect if you have a little one as they can't run off too far!
I hope you enjoyed looking back on our trip to Cornwall. We had such an amazing time and really didn't want to come home! I'm currently in the process of putting together vlogs of the week and have already done Days 1 & 2 so be sure to head over to
and subscribe to get the rest of the days.

One thing we left behind in the South is good barbecue. There weren't a lot places surprisingly but there were enough to make it difficult to replace. Jim's Smokin' Que even had national press. I thought it was only OK, but another place that has national notoriety is Col. Poole's. And the NC BBQ Trail began by our old digs.
In searching the internet it seems that Caribbean Kitchen had the best ribs in Cedar Rapids but alas they are no more. Scouring with Google some more turned up BBQ This! I liked the idea of dry rubbed meat that you sauce yourself. I associate this with Texas and if it's good barbecue I don't even use sauce.
BBQ This ! is tucked in a small shopping plaza off Boyson Rd. It is another one of those "fast casual" establishments. You order under the big "Order Here" sign, one order at a time, and pay at the end of the line, exactly like Subway. Our order totaled $55 though so this is less casual than I would have thought. They aren't using this model to keep prices low, that's for sure.
We came here in search of good ribs. BBQ This! has baby back ribs rather than spare ribs. They cut each rib off the rack for you. I ordered a full rack for The Child thinking she would eat half and I would eat half. She also ordered mac n' cheese and homemade chips. She went to town on the mac 'n cheese but only had a rib or two. She didn't care for them but didn't have a real good reason as to why. But she did say she did not like the barbecue sauces. I did not care for the ribs either. I found them to be very dry. I would have liked them to be tender and juicy . The search continues.
The Wife went with a two meat combo, pulled pork and sausage. For sides she got the potato salad and the cheesy potatoes which was like a hash brown casserole. All of the combos come with a side of sweet corn bread. She preferred the spicy barbecue sauce.
I ordered the sliced beef brisket and sausage with sides of baked beans and apple crisp. I began seeking sausage out at barbecue places after all my trips in Texas. I call a brisket, pulled pork, sausage plate a Texas plate. BBQ This didn't have a three meat combo to offer though. The brisket was good but I found it to be dry. It was good with both the mild and the sweet sauce. But truthfully, I couldn't tell the difference between the two sauces. I love smoked sausage and it was quite good. I just poured one of the sauces over the sausage like I was in Texas.The baked beans were so-so, they had a vinegary flavor to them. Being a Yankee I prefer sweet corn bread to dry southern corn bread, but I need butter. The corn bread was slightly sweet, and tasted pretty good with the whipped spread I found, though I would have preferred real butter. The apple crisp was a winner. It was fresh from the oven and oh so good.
Not really my kind of barbecue joint but the sausage was good enough to go back. Next time though I will probably try the smoked wings.

Say you are a commercial tenant in a plaza and business is pretty good. You are established now and planning for the future. Before you know it, a few years have gone by and you realize that your lease must be coming up for renewal later this year. But do you really understand what a renewal option is and what rights and obligations you have? Today we are going to discuss the important topic of renewal options.
What Exactly Is A Renewal Option?
A renewal option is a clause within your lease that outlines the terms for renewing or extending a lease agreement. Obviously this renewal option comes into play as you approach the end of your lease term. These renewal options are at the right of the tenant and not an obligation.
How Do Renewal Options Work?
Renewal options generally spell out how (usually in writing to the Landlord), and when (usually a time period before the expiration of the lease, ie 6 months), this option can be exercised. There is also usually a number of renewal options (ie. 3 options of renewal), and a lease term (ie. 5 years), tied to a renewal option. This also assumes the Tenant is in good standing not in default of any of the covenants of the lease. The wording of your renewal option will be a clause included in your lease agreement. Make sure to have your lawyer read over the clause to protect your interests.
What Else Should I Know About Renewal Options?
Sometimes renewals also spell out the rental rate. The rest of the time the rate in the renewal is at "a rate to be negotiated". This rate to be negotiated is supposed to be at a market rate at the time of the renewal. In Ontario (our market where we practice real estate), in the case where a Landlord and Tenant can't come to terms on a rate, there is an arbitration process to resolve the matter.
In the event a Tenant doesn't exercise their right to renew, they end up holding over month to month and lose all additional renewal options. If you'd like to read up on this situation, be sure to read our blog on this topic here.
Renewal options are a negotiating term when negotiating a commercial lease. Make sure you get a good commercial realtor to negotiate your renewal options on your behalf and be sure to understand this renewal option for the future.

Kansas voters overwhelmingly approve the proslavery Lecompton Constitution, but only because Free-Staters boycott the referendum. The proposed constitution is a rebuke of the Free-Staters' antislavery Topeka Constitution, and it receives the approval of President James Buchanan, but it splits the Democratic Party into its Northern and Southern components as the constitution fails to pass in Congress.

EIA: Annual Energy Outlook through 2040.
This analysis focuses on six scenarios: a reference case, low and high economic growth cases, low and high oil price cases, and the high oil and gas resource case.
The table gives the case descriptions used in AEO2015, along with a brief explanation of the major assumptions underlying the projection. Regional results and other details of the projections are available at: www.eia.gov/forecasts/aeo/tables_ref.cftn#supplement.
This article focuses primarily on the sections of the report referencing crude oil, petroleum and other liquids and natural gas.
Energy Prices
In the AEO2015 reference case, the Brent spot price for crude oil (in 2013 dollars) falls from $109/bbl in 2013 to $56/bbl in 2015 and then increases to $76/bbl in 2018. After 2018, the price increases, reaching $141 /bbl in 2040 ($229/bbl in nominal dollars), as growing demand leads to the development of more costly resources (Figure 1). In the AEO2014 reference case, the projected Brent price in 2040 was $144/bbl (2013 dollars).
The report noted there is significant price variation in the alternative cases using different assumptions. In the low oil price case, Brent drops to $52/bbl in 2015, 7% lower than in the reference case, and reaches $76/bbl in 2040, 47% lower than in the reference case, largely as a result of lower non-OECD demand and higher upstream investments by OPEC.
In the high oil price case, Brent increases to $ 122/bbl in 2015 and to $252/bbl in 2040, largely in response to significantly lower OPEC production and higher non-OECD demand. In the high oil and gas resource case, assumptions about overseas demand and supply decisions don't vary from those in the reference case, but U.S. crude oil production growth is significantly greater, resulting in lower U.S. net imports of crude oil, and causing the Brent spot price to average $ 129/bbl in 2040, which is 8% lower than in the reference case.
The ELA projects energy imports and exports to come into balance in the reference case, starting in 2028. In the high oil price and high oil and gas resource cases, with higher crude oil and dry natural gas production and lower imports, the United States becomes a net exporter of energy in 2019. In contrast, in the low oil price case, the nation remains a net energy importer through 2040 (Figure 2). Economic growth assumptions also affect the U.S. energy trade balance.
In the low economic growth case, energy imports are lower than in the reference case, and the U.S. becomes a net energy exporter in 2022. In the high economic growth case, the nation remains a net energy importer through 2040.
The share of U.S. energy production from crude oil and lease condensate is shown to rise from 19% in 2013 to 25% in 2040 in the high oil and gas resource case, as compared with no change in the reference case. Dry natural gas production remains the largest contributor to total U.S. energy production through 2040 in all the AEO2015 cases, with a higher share in the high oil and gas resource case (38%) than in the reference case (34%) and all other cases. In 2013, dry natural gas accounted for 30% of total U.S. energy production.
On natural gas prices, the report finds future prices will be influenced by a number of factors going forward, including oil price, resource availability and natural gas demand.
In the reference case, the Henry Hub natural gas spot price (in 2013 dollars) rises from $3.69/MMBtu in 2014 to $4.88 MMBtu in 2020 and to $7.85 MMBtu in 2040 (Figure 3). In the high oil price case, spot price remains close to the reference case price through 2020; however, higher overseas demand for U.S. LNG exports raises the average price to $10.62 MMBtu in 2040, which is 35% above the reference case price.
The EIA also projects the U.S. transitioning from being a modest net importer of natural gas to a net exporter by 2017, predicting export growth continuing after 2017, with net exports in 2040 ranging from 3 Tcf in the low oil price scenario to 13.1 Tcf in the high oil and gas resource case.
In the reference case, LNG exports reach 3.4 Tcf in 2030 and remain at that level through 2040 when they account for 46% of total U.S. natural gas exports. The growth in LNG exports is supported by differences between international and domestic natural gas prices. LNG supplied to international markets is primarily priced on the basis of world oil prices, among other factors.
This results in significantly higher prices for global LNG than for domestic natural gas supply, particularly in the near term. However, the relationship between the price of international natural gas supplies and world oil prices is assumed to weaken later in the projection period, in part because of growth in LNG export capacity.
As U.S. natural gas prices are determined primarily by the availability and cost of domestic natural gas resources, in the high oil price case, with higher world oil prices resulting in higher international natural gas prices, LNG exports climb to 8.1 Tcf in 2033 and account for 73% of total U.S. natural gas exports in 2040.
In the high oil and gas resource case, abundant dry natural gas production keeps domestic natural gas prices lower than international prices, supporting the growth of LNG exports, which total 10.3 Tcf in 2037 and account for 66% of natural gas exports in 2040.
In the low oil price case, with lower world oil prices, LNG exports are less competitive and grow more slowly, to a peak of 0.8 Tcf in 2018, and account for 13% of total natural gas exports in 2040.
Additional growth in net natural gas exports comes from increasing natural gas pipeline exports to Mexico, which reach a high of 4.7 Tcf in 2040 in the high oil and gas resource case (compared with 0.7 Tcf in 2013). In the high oil price case, natural gas pipeline exports to Mexico peak at 2.2 Tcf in 2040, as higher domestic natural gas prices resulting from increased world demand for LNG reduce the incentive to export natural gas via pipeline.
Natural gas pipeline net imports from Canada remain below 2013 levels through 2040 in all of the AEO2015 cases, but these imports do increase in response to higher natural gas prices in the latter part of the projection period.
Other key results from the AEO2015 reference and alternative cases include:
* Growth in crude oil and dry natural gas production varies significantly across oil and natural gas supply regions and cases, forcing shifts in crude oil and natural gas flows between U.S. regions, and requiring investment in or realignment of pipelines and other midstream infrastructure
* U.S. energy consumption grows at a modest rate over the projection period, averaging 0.3% a year from 2013 through 2040 in the reference case. A marginal decrease in transportation sector energy consumption contrasts with growth in most other sectors. Declines in energy consumption tend to result from the adoption of more energy-efficient technologies and existing policies that promote increased energy efficiency.
* Growth in production of dry natural gas and natural gas plant liquids (NGPL) contributes to the expansion of several manufacturing industries, such as bulk chemicals and primary metals, and the increased use of NGPL feedstock in place of petroleum-based naphtha.
* Growth in U.S. energy production, led by crude oil and natural gas, and only modest growth in demand reduces reliance on imported energy supplies. The national energy imports and exports come into balance starting in 2028 in the AEO2015 reference case and in 2019 in the high oil price and high oil and gas resource cases. Natural gas is the dominant U.S. energy export, while liquid fuels continue to be imported.
