Democratic U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright on Wednesday touted his willingness to team up with Republicans on legislation and efforts to stop scams aimed at veterans as reasons voters should re-elect him.
"I have a lot more that I want to achieve as a congressman, principally to help our area. We have a long way to go and I have high hopes for what I can do if I'm given the chance on the Appropriations Committee," Cartwright said Wednesday.
Cartwright, a Moosic Democrat seeking a fourth two-year term, faces Republican John Chrin, Barrett Twp., Monroe County, in the Nov. 6 election. The annual salary is $174,000.
Cartwright brought up several bills that he introduced that either turned into laws or passed the House. They include:
• A law that requires the federal Department of Veterans Affairs to work with federal agencies, states and experts to creates standards to protect veterans eligible for federal aid to pay for home health care from predatory practices.
• A law that requires federal budget overseers to establish ways to monitor computer software license purchases. Though Cartwright estimated the bill could save between $1 billion to $4 billion, the Congressional Budget Office has estimated the bill would have little additional effect on the federal budget because better management of software licenses was already underway. However, the law mandates the streamlining efforts.
• A bill that requires the Department of Energy to establish a clearinghouse where public school administrators can find information on federal funding to pay for energy efficiency measures. The House passed the bill, but the Senate has not.
• A law forbidding outsourcing of federal civilian jobs. Cartwright said the law protects employees at the Tobyhanna Army Depot, the region's largest employer.
• A bill requiring the federal government to establish an interagency council plan for the effects of extreme weather. The House has passed the bill as part of reauthorizing funding for the Federal Aviation Administration.
In a federal government controlled by Republicans, getting bills passed ranks as a significant accomplishment, he said. It takes working with Republicans to get it done.
Cartwright defended his vote against President Donald Trump's tax cuts, saying most of the benefits went to the wealthy. He especially objected to a provision that taxes corporate profits earned in other countries at a lower rate than profits earned here. That, he predicted, will reduce chances of a manufacturing revival.
His top priority if re-elected will be to get through Congress a federal transportation bill that funds highway, bridge and other infrastructure repairs, he said.

As a fiscal conservative, I am responding to a recent letter entitled "No more mention of Maddow, please." I generally do not subscribe to her viewpoints, either, and have a very different vision of where our country should be heading. I am quite dismayed that Pres. Obama won.
However, I do not agree with your characterization of Mr. Green. Mr. Green is no bully nor is he anyone's parrot. He has a pulpit, no doubt. After all, expressing his opinion on the Editorial Page is his prerogative as editor.

One of my biggest regrets from last year's posting of the Battle of Helm's Deep was that we didn't have any pictures of us building the thing. This of course led to wild speculation that we're all socially retarded mongoloids sporting coke bottle glasses and greasy hair. Nothing could be further from the truth, I wear contacts.
In any event, here are a couple pictures of the construction of this year's project:
And now the key constructors:
Sunshine and Brendan, who thought they were coming up just to visit and hang out. I put them to work almost immediately.

The village of Artzvashen was founded in 1854 with the name of Bashkend by Armenians from Shamshadin, although an inscription on the St. Hovhannes church of the village, dated to 1607, attests to an earlier Armenian presence on the site.
The population of the village was entirely of Armenian origin. It had a surrounding territory of 40 square kilometers (15.5 square miles) and enjoyed a town status in the 1980s, managing four factories. This included a branch of Haygorg, the Armenian state carpet company.
|The encircled land is the location of Artzvashen which is now in the hands of the Azeris.
In May 1991, during the last months of the Soviet Union, when the conflict for Gharabagh had already started, the inhabitants of the village surrendered their weapons to Soviet military units to avert an imminent occupation.
Indeed, Azerbaijan was prone to occupy those portions of Armenian territory that were completely landlocked, and one of them was Artzvashen. After a four-day resistance headed by the unit 016 of motorized artillery of Vanadzor, Artzvashen was surrendered to Azerbaijani armed forces on August 8, 1992. According to The New York Times, Azerbaijan announced the "liberation" of the town, destroying enemy tanks and weaponry, and killing 300 Armenian "brigands," while Armenian reports did not mention any dead, but said that 29 people were "missing without trace." The bodies of 12 Armenian soldiers were later delivered; one of the Azerbaijani colonels declared: "They fought until the last bullet. They are the pride of your nation."
The Armenian population was given one hour to evacuate the village. According to the Regional Administration of Gegharkunik, 719 families (around 2,800 people) were displaced after its occupation. A total of 664 families resettled in the towns of Chambarak and nearby villages, and the rest went to other provinces. The migrants were not considered a separate commune, but the government of the Republic decided to create a separate working staff, financed by the national budget. This staff takes care of problems related to documents and workbooks of displaced people, as well as claims of property rights and improvement of living conditions.

This is precisely the wrong way to run public WiFi.
There absolutely *must* be transparency and choice by the end-user, because there are many stakeholders involved in WiFi provision, and many different models for access. MNOs are less important than venue owners, event organisers, device vendors, fixed operators, employers & application companies in determining WiFi choice. And paramount is the user's own preferences – and perhaps, desire for privacy.
If you attend a conference, you will log on with the event producer's free-access code, not "roam" from your cellular account & perhaps incur fees, or have restrictions on what applications you can use. If you visit a cafe, it is up to the owner how easy or difficult to make it to connect – they may well want a small hurdle for the user to prevent it being inundated by "campers" sitting on WiFi all day long.
It is arrogant & deeply unrealistic of the mobile industry to try to suggest that someone's cellular connection should determine how they connect to WiFi & take the user. Most cellphone WiFi use is none of the operator's business. It is connectivity in "private" mode, not part of a contracted service. Also, most people will have tablets or PCs that don't have SIMs or cellular accounts – they will just connect as per normal.

Jet2 Flight Compensation Claims

According to the author:
Analyzing both American and European perspectives, this book does askwhy Americans went to Paris — the primary question driving much of the literature on the subject — but what happened once they became conspicuous participants in the capital's public life. What impact did they have on the city? How did Parisians and other Europeans interpret their presence? And what difference did this overseas movement make to Americans' sense of themselves and their culture.
First of all, I won this book from a giveaway held by Wonders and Marvels. Its taken my longer than I'm proud to admit to finally reading this book.
This book is definitely not a bit of light reading, in case you are wondering. Although it is densely packed with information, Brooke Blower's writing style makes it easy and entertaining to get through. As to her theme of the book, it really felt like a long catalog of reason of why Americans are hated in Europe. It seems like many of the reasons still resonate today. In generalized words, Americans are pompous, loud, demanding and unsympathetic to the way of life in the country they are visiting. It seems that the French absolutely hated the American presence in Paris.
This book did open my eyes to many aspects of history that took place between the wars that I never learned about in history classes. It's a very niche era to discuss, particularly with the American/French dynamic. I never knew about the European Sacco and Vanzetti riots, particularly the French reaction to the American execution of two Italian immigrants. I also didn't realize how much the French resented American expats trekking onto their land, and turning quaint locations in tourist attractions. This book covers a lot of ground in regards to politics, culture, racism, and celebrity expats. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with a keen interest in history, French history, American history or the interwar years.

Hi there,
Ever since I installed Windows 10, I cannot open Adobe suite programs like Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. I get an error saying that msvcp110.dll is missing from my computer. I checked the other questions that were asked on different versions of Windows, and people suggested to download Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package, but I do not know which version of it is for Windows 10. Would the 2015 version solve my issue? Or it isn't even related?
Edit: As soon as I posted this questions, I tried to open Revit 2015(Autodesk software), and this time msvcr110.dll is missing. So I have two things missing now;
- msvcp110.dll
- msvcr110.dll

The identifier that determines whether the view supports state restoration.
- iOS 6.0+
- Mac Catalyst 13.0+
- tvOS 9.0+
- UIKit
This property indicates whether state information in the view should be preserved; it is also used to identify the view during the restoration process. The value of this property is
nil by default, which indicates that the view's state does not need to be saved. Assigning a string object to the property lets the owning view controller know that the view has relevant state information to save.
Assign a value to this property only if you are implementing a custom view that implements the
encode and
decode methods for saving and restoring state. You use those methods to write any view-specific state information and subsequently use that data to restore the view to its previous configuration.

To begin with I was beyond terrified and my nerves were beyond shattered.. Come time for the procedure I was reassured that with the local anaesthetic I wouldn't feel much.. YA RIGHTTTT! All they said was I'd feel the anaesthetic injection and just some discomfort.. Aha ahaa bull shit.. I felt pain like I have NEVER felt.. I didn't feel it in my body I felt it my soul.. I felt my soul was being ripped out of my body.. and as if that wasn't enough I had to go through that ripping feeling 3 times. And each time was worse than the other.. I cried like a child.. thank God for the nurse who was holding my hand through it.. i crushed her hands :/ poor thing I wouldn't let go of her :( She was truly an angel..
The doc who did the procedure is one of the docs on my case.. He's so arrogant that I wanna smack him! I'm all for being realistic and telling me up front how I will feel but this goddamn doc has a knack for scaring me and telling me the worst even when its not that bad :( For fuck sake can't ya just be a bit less terrifying! Hmm my heart rate is through the roof and blood pressure below low.. they wouldn't let me leave the hospital for 3 hours till my pressure got better.. it didn't so I just left.. i feel like I have been beaten with a baseball bat.. i just wish this would be over with :(
Oh yesterday I was in SOOO much pain that I took strong painkillers and I got so dizzy in the middle of the night that I was about to collapse and I hit the wall and cut the inside of my lip and it started bleeding :D

I wanna tell you that I sympathize with you and that I feel your pain, but when my jaw was sawed completely off my skull and moved to another position I didn't feel a thing, so I dont know what kind of pain you felt.
If that pain is similar to the pain I felt months later after my nerves started making the right connections again, then I know how bad that feels. I had so much vicodin I literally slept for days.
In that case I sympathize with you and I know how it feels.

I wasn't offering ... Its this nagging thing people feel for each other. Its human nature to want to comfort those in pain.
Its not pity from my side nor a sign of weakness from yours. Its just human nature. Its a bitch, isn't it?
But you're right. People have different thresholds and what might tickle you may in fact kill me. However, this does not invalidate my point about becoming stronger when you pass such obstacles with flying colors.
Either ways, im just glad you're ok. And just because I give off all that macho crap about not feeling pain (and acting like a jerk) does not mean I dont care. Im just in one of those dark phases where even when I am about to explode from my own problems, I try to comfort those around me. Sadly is sometimes comes off as me not caring and being somewhat of a bastard, but you know I mean well.

Paula Allen: More Piggly Wiggly memories in store
Recent columns about grocery stores in midcentury San Antonio brought forth a bountiful harvest of responses from readers who remembered Piggly Wiggly, Red & White and other neighborhood grocers well and fondly.
For Charlie Whipple, who grew up at 114 Cincinnati Ave. during the late 1930s and early '40s, that was the Piggly Wiggly at Fredericksburg Road and Cincinnati. In those days, he writes, "Many people did not have a car or a refrigerator. Consequently, they would buy only one or two bags of groceries. I would see them all the time walking by our house carrying their groceries home."
Because people bought fewer items at time, they used hand-carried baskets rather than carts to collect them. When Whipple visited the store with his mother, he watched with fascination as the checkout clerk "threw the (emptied) basket through the air so that it landed in the bin next to where it had been picked up by the turnstile." A typical bill would total between $2 and $3, "which bought a lot of groceries then."
As one of the earliest supermarket chains, Piggly Wiggly pioneered in-house meat and produce departments for one-stop grocery shopping. The company's franchised stores built here in the 1920s and '30s, often one-story brick buildings, "were of the new deluxe type (with) a modern meat market (and) a full line of fresh fruits and vegetables ... conveniently and attractively displayed," says an announcement of a new store at 104 Michigan Ave. in the San Antonio Light, April 1, 1932.
At the butcher counter of the store Whipple remembers, "You could get exactly the cut of meat you wanted, including hamburger ground on the spot. They would throw in a soup bone or suet for free if you wanted it. Fresh shrimp was so cheap, we would buy it for bait when we went fishing."
In the produce section, he says, "Stalks of bananas were hung upside down from a chain and you broke off as many as you needed." Although this and other grocery stores of the time were "minuscule compared to today's supermarkets," Whipple says, "they always had everything we needed, and we ate very well without having to walk all over a huge store."
Many of the early San Antonio Piggly Wigglies were operated by E.A. Basse, who sold them to ShopRite in 1957, says Charles Peterson, a Piggly Wiggly manager from 1943 to 1977. ShopRite, he writes, "expanded and updated (local Piggly Wiggly stores) until they went out of business (here) in 1977."
Readers also reported onetime Piggly Wiggly stores at locations all over town, including Rittiman Road at Harry Wurzbach Highway, Pat Booker Road, South New Braunfels Avenue between Fair Avenue and Ada Street, W.W. White Road, West Avenue at Redrock Drive, West Woodlawn Avenue at Zarzamora Street.
In the chain's local glory days, which peaked in the 1960s, locations were so numerous as to be omitted in advertising, with the assumption that most customers knew exactly where their own Pig was. Some of the old stores are still standing but unoccupied, while others have been torn down to make way for other retailers.
Thanks to Marlena and Edgar Dupre, Kathy LaRos Knezeak, Kay Myers, Nancy Phillips, David Rakowitz, Kathleen (Pearce) Reicherzer, Martha Whitlock Robinson and many others who wrote to share their memories of Pigs past.
Old-time downtown: The Historical Society of Helotes offers a rare opportunity to step back in time on a tour Monday of the Maverick-Carter House near Municipal Auditorium in downtown San Antonio. Designed by noted architect Alfred Giles, the house was built in 1893 for William Maverick and bought in the early 1900s by H.C. Carter, whose wife, Aline, was a poet laureate of Texas. The house includes a chapel and an observatory, and the Carters' descendants have preserved family furnishings.
The tour, which starts at 10 a.m., is free to society members and $5 to others, with an optional Dutch-treat lunch at Guillermo's at the Radius, 106 Auditorium Circle. Parking is limited, so participants are encouraged to meet at 9 a.m. across from Floore's Country Store, 14492 Old Bandera Road in Helotes, to carpool. Reservations are required; contact the society at email@example.com, 210-279-9479, or through its website at www.historicalsocietyofhelotes.org.

Iron for children
Infants and young children grow far more rapidly than adults. This is a crucial stage in their development and good nutrition is vital. Iron is one of a range of nutrients that is particularly important for health. It helps to make red blood cells, which carry oxygen from the lungs to body tissues.
Infants who do not get enough iron can develop a disorder called iron deficiency anaemia and, consequently, have an increased risk of developmental delay. Children with iron deficiency anaemia can be tired, listless, and are sometimes irritable. They may also pick up infections easily. If you are concerned about iron deficiency anaemia talk to your GP or Public Health Nurse.
Nearly one in 10 toddlers in Ireland are estimated to have iron deficiency anaemia. As cow's milk is such a poor source of iron it is important that it is not given as a main drink in babies before 1 year of age.
Where do infants get iron?
Your baby is born with enough iron stores to last them until they are about 6 months of age. A this point foods introduced to the diet provide the baby with dietary iron. For this reason it is essential that iron-containing foods are included in the diet.
What are the best sources of iron?
Iron from meat, chicken and fish (haem iron) is more easily absorbed than iron from cereals, eggs, vegetables or beans (non-haem iron). Including meat, chicken or fish as part of a mixed daily diet for both infants and young children has been shown to be effective in preventing anaemia.
Ten tips for a healthy baby!
- Breast milk is the very best beginning for your baby and the iron in breast milk is well absorbed.
- Formula milk, all of which is fortified with iron, should be used for babies who are not breast fed.
- Until baby's first birthday, breast milk or formula should be used as the main milk drink. From six months, cows' milk may be used to mix cereals or as an ingredient in foods such as custards and rice. Cows' milk should not be used as the main milk drink before the age of one year.
- Your baby can begin to take foods from a spoon from about four months if bottle fed, and 6 months if breast fed. Iron-rich foods, such as puréed lean meat and chicken can be used as can fruits, vegetables and gluten free cereals.
- Initially, all foods should be soft (i.e. bananas, baby rice) or puréed (i.e. meat, vegetables), but gradually as your baby learns to chew, they will be able to manage more lumpy consistencies (mashed or minced foods).
- Offer a variety of foods during infancy and childhood; include meats, fruits and vegetables, cereals (may contain gluten from six months), breads and potatoes. Aim to be feeding a mixed diet by one year. If you wish your child to eat a vegetarian diet, seek the advice of a qualified nutritionist.
- Foods which contain vitamin C, for example citrus fruits, help the absorption of iron from cereals, vegetables and breads if taken at the same meal. Do not give tea or coffee to infants or toddlers as they prevent iron in foods being absorbed.
- Provide nourishing between-meal snacks; for example use fruit, yoghurt or bread instead of sweets, biscuits or crisps.
- Avoid an over-reliance on milk during the second year, as infants who drink too much milk may be reluctant to eat the foods they need.
- Iron medication is potentially toxic, so, it should be kept out of the reach of children and only used under medical supervision.
Contact your doctor or public health nurse if you require further dietary information. Further dietary information available from the Irish Nutrition and Dietetic Institute www.indi.ie and the Health Promotion Unit www.healthpromotion.ie

I am about to finish my basement. The previous owners insulated the foundation walls with fibreglass batt insulation and have subsequently drywalled all the foundation walls. Can I leave this insulation in place? Or, do I need to rip it out along with the drywall and replace with spray foam?
The way it was done is fine...as long as they put tyvek or typar between the concrete and the insulation.
Working from the inside of the house towards the concrete the order should be as follows; drywall, vapour barrier, insulation, typar.
Just like the post before me said as long as the previous owner but a "Tyvek" membrane behind the insulation there is no need for you to worry about have to redoing the wall.
Unfortunately, there is nothing on the wall just batt insulation against concrete.
Hi Kevin,
Try to salvage the batt insulation. You may be able to reuse it in another part of your renovation. You only need to use Tyvek on exterior walls when concrete in present.
Good luck with your project.
Thanks for the help, my next question is... is it necessary to install an HRV or would an exhaust fan suffice? If it is necessary, any idea of cost?
I personally would recommend removing the batt insulation with no bearer, replace with spray foam, it works well in our wet climate, A dehumidifier in the basement also will help, run it on a timer set to run 1 hr every 8 hrs monitor how much water it produces you may need to increase run time if needed.
Hi Kevin,
I would strongly advise against finishing a basement that has the outside walls already finished by someone else. I would hate to see anyone endure the most expensive stages of finishing a basement ie flooring, millwork, electrical, mechanical, etc. while simply relying on the least expensive stage as proper.
The vapor barrier makes the outside walls critical components of a finished basement system from a performance standpoint. If it is not providing a 100 per cent air seal in the walls and joist ends (which is almost impossible with poly) you may end up with condensation or frost behind the insulation on your concrete walls or rim joists in the cold months of the year = long term damage and health risks.
I would only finish the basement if I removed all the previous work to foundation, examined the foundation walls, and started from scratch with new framing, spray foam insulation, and certified electrical.

Every day I read through my Twitter feed, check out various blogs I follow, and review recipes and health information on Flipboard and through my RSS reader, Feedly.
There's simply too much information to take in, even for me. And what should you believe?
Since my areas of expertise are cooking, nutrition, and fitness, I've decide to create a short, weekly EatMoveBe Health Digest of what I feel are the most important and useful articles from around the web that I recommend you to read to improve your health and fitness.

This week detoxing is about taking care of yourself for "over-doing" it, why you need to eat more vegetables than fruit, obese women may have a learning impairment, raw milk is healthier than processed milk, and why non-fat products make you fat and hungry.
Detox the Healthy Way
"Combating extreme behavior with more extreme behavior undermines your healthstyle, because it undermines your habits. A foodist must remember––and believe––that attempting to build health through suffering hurts rather than helps."
How to Detox Without Starving Yourself
More Fruit = More Calories
"Fruit or whole fruit anyway is certainly not "bad" or the crux of any major nutritional issue, but using it interchangeably with vegetables is nutritionally misleading and a serious error. An error that has been manipulated by advertisers for years."
Newsflash! Fruits are NOT Vegetables.
Learned Fatness
"Obese women may have a "food learning impairment" that could explain their attitude to food, research from Yale School of Medicine suggests."
Obese women 'show signs of food learning impairment'
The Raw Milk Conspiracy
"The vast majority of foodborne illnesses in the US are linked to factory farmed and highly processed foods, not raw foods. For example, late last year, Chobani Greek yogurt was recalled following reports of gastrointestinal illness."
Raw Milk versus Pasteurized—Which Is Safer?
"Non-Fat" Makes you Hungry and Fat
"…the non-fat label makes us believe that we're consuming fewer calories than we actually are. In fact, studies show people eat as much as 35 percent more when eating a food with a "healthy" label than when they think the food is unhealthy."

A lot of aspiring web designers think flashy sites are eye-catching, but visitors with slower internet connections don't like them. Keep your site simple for more success. Read on to learn how to design a clean, simple, and very appealing website.
Use the proper graphic tools for web design. Remember, bitmap images are huge and usually don't work well, PNGs work fine. PNG should be used for buttons with text and screenshots that have 256 colors or more. For photos, you can use JPEG images.
Make your website content grabbing to readers. The overall design is always important, but it's even more important to use content that keeps visitors coming back for more. When the content on your site is valuable and useful, visitors will continue visiting your site.
Make sure all topics are clearly divided. Keep different topics on different pages. In this way, your visitors will not be confused. Additionally, this will provide the search engines with better information to rank your site properly.
White is a good choice for your page background color. White puts the focus on the content, making it easier to read. If you are trying to to exude a professional tone, a white background lends a trustworthy feeling to your site. However, intricate background images are often difficult to pull off; more often than not they appear sloppy and distracting. It is usually best to keep a simple background.
Utilize the software out there that doesn't cost you a thing when you are designing your own site. Though expensive software is certainly available, free products can work just as well when it comes to setting up and running your site. All you have to do is a little searching to find the best free tools for you.
Always provide text content for links when you set up the design of your website. These types of links let the user know exactly what they are clicking. Textless links can easily be clicked by mistake.
Be sure to proofread everything you post to present a professional appearance. The goal is to have people go through the information with ease. When you have errors on your site it really looks unprofessional and people won't take you or your site seriously which can hurt it's reputation.
All load times on the website you design should be as fast as possible. Visitors that get stuck waiting for slow pages to load will almost always leave the website. Reduce file sizes, graphics and fancy coding to bring your pages down to acceptable load times.
Usability tests that are task based are a good way to see how effective your website's design is. These tests find information deep in your site. If your site is well-designed, the user will be able to accomplish the tasks. If it isn't, the task helps you understand how to improve your website.
Explore your website with different browsers and computer systems. Each web browser has a slightly different way of how they illustrate the website, and in a couple of cases these little differences could have major effects on the experience for the user. There are a ton of resources you could use, so you are able to find out the browsers that currently have the most popularity. Check your site on every browser, and include the popular browsers on cellphones too.
Work with a professional. You can gain a great deal of knowledge from a web design master who knows how the field works. By doing this, you are helping to guarantee that one day you too will be a professional, because you are willing to take the time and gain the knowledge to do things the correct way.
Broken Links
It is important not to force people around your website. What you are trying to avoid is having some offers take control of their desktop until they enter data. Guide them to what you want but don't kidnap them and force them to do what you wish. If you reduce their options, they'll choose the choice they still have and leave.
Be sure there are no broken links on your website. Do this each time you upload new content to your site. Broken links are one reason for web visitors to leave a site. In order to prevent this from occurring, proactively test thoroughly for full functionality.
Remember, designing a website does not need to be expensive. For each useful, popular, and expensive web design product, there is another equally useful and popular product that is much cheaper. Look at open source software or free trials to accomplish the tasks you need. These open source solutions are the key to saving money in your budget.
When you design your website, remember that you do have have to fill up every bit of space. Making use of all the pixels and space makes the site look cluttered and feel overwhelming. Let your white space frame your content, giving it focus and importance on the screen. Even empty space in some areas serves just as good a purpose as content.
Keep in mind that the site you create does not have to be built entirely by you. In order to be successful at web design, you need to know about content creation, graphic design, web programming, user interface design and search engine optimization. You should not feel ashamed to ask for help. When it comes to those web design areas that you lack expertise in, hiring a specialist or a professional company may be well worth the cost.
Even if you invest a bunch into your site, hosting yourself isn't wise. Do as much of the design that you are comfortable with, but allow a professional to host your website, so your time is freed up; this allows you to dedicate your time for things other than the site's security and safety.
Ensure your web designs don't look similar to something already in your niche. To make sure this does not occur, have a look at the websites of your competitors. You will want to stand out in the midst of the crowd with a different style and design. You don't want to be generic!
Target Audience
Videos on your site won't be accessible to all viewers, including those with slower Internet connections. For example, converting your videos at 5,000 kb/s may be too fast for a user's connection to handle. This results in a slow load time for the video which causes is to continuously buffer every few seconds.
Make sure you think about your target audience when designing your site. Create a poll or questionnaire to find out what they need from your page. This will make the design process much easier. Taking the advice of your target audience is crucial if you want your design to be successful.
White space is a key element in web design, so many sure you have some! Allowing a certain amount of white spaces makes your site more readable; it becomes easier to locate and absorb relevant information.
Use keywords in the tagline for you domain and sub-domain names. These tags should immediately draw the visitors' eyes when the page loads. Good taglines are high on the page and formatted in large, clear text. If you use the tagline appropriate, it will let the reader's know what your page's true goal is. It can even help to determine if they will remain on the page or use their "back" button.
Be sure to check on your website statistics frequently so that you will know how you are doing. You will be able to tell who is visiting your site and which pages they're spending the most time on. This will let you know what you should be concentrating on more with your website.
Include a search form on your home webpage, as well as on all your other pages. You make your site much easier to use and more accessible all in one shot with this search offering. It is not complicated to incorporate a site search, and it will pay off in a big way.
It is important that you maintain your site and are on top of everything in order to get rid of unwanted spam and negative content. This is particularly good advice if you have a forum or a blog. The removal of negative comments and spam is the sign of a great site designer.
Do not force visitors to take a specific path which takes their choices from them. For instance, do not force them to respond to surveys or offers before they can proceed to the content in which they are interested. If you remove your visitor's choice to force what you want on them, you are more likely to lose them completely and get a bad review.
During the design phase of your website, you must ensure that everyone can access your site and the content that it contains. You need to have the content check by users on different device and from different countries. Certain content could be displayed differently in another country, so it's best to check for sure.
Ask your web host what is and isn't allowed when it comes to streaming video through your site. Many web hosts will not let people host videos on their servers. FLV files use too much room on the public servers. Therefore, you should check this out beforehand or you could potentially waste all your efforts.
Implement a site map. Site maps accomplish a couple of things. For starters, visitors are able to better navigate your site with one. In one glance, they can see the content of your site and find information. Second, the site map furthers your SEO efforts. The search engines are able to locate your site better this way.
If you include a search box on your site, it should be positioned in the top, right-hand site of each page. The search field should accommodate 27 or more characters. Ensure that the button which causes the search clearly states "search," not "go" or "submit." These measures will ensure that your search bar is clearly visible and is indeed a field for visitors to submit a search for the information they are seeking.
A favicon should be created for your site. Your site can be recognized so much more when you add these graphics on it. When they go to look through their bookmarks list, your memorable favicon will make you stand out. Choose an icon that corresponds to the theme of your site.
Flash is an overused technology which can easily be replaced with other options. Despite it's visual appeal and features, it can be a problem when a website visitor's computer can't effectively use the feature. Don't forget that some tablet PCs and mobile phones do not have Flash enabled, which could also ruin a site visitor's experience, causing them to avoid your site.
Make sure that you thoroughly check the code on each webpage that you design. A lot of the WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get programs) add junk coding into the website design. Therefore, when using these editors, it is essential to use a validation service to validate your code on your website. The W3C provides a no cost service that validates web pages.
Try finding some unique inspiration sources when you are designing a site. Take a look at magazines, TV commercials and even children's artwork. You want to always be on the lookout for new inspiration because you may just stumble across something that will help your site become very popular with your visitors.
Be sure you keep up on what's going on with web design so you're able to compete with other people. As you probably know, technology changes quickly and you must progress at the same speed or get left behind. Keeping up with a few design blogs is a good idea.
Now that you read the above article you understand how important it is to keep flash to a minimum, because it may causes issues with loading. When you are educated on web design that is simple and pleasing to the eye, your site will become a success. Take what you learned from the above article to create a beautiful website that doesn't cause your visitors to get distracted.
Provide tools that let your visitors share what they find on your site with social media sites. You should drum up interest in your website and make it easy to share it with their social circle. Sharing makes your site reach limitless and helps spread the word rapidly.

You know it's coming: The weather gets colder, the twinkle lights ignite, we begin to furiously shop for the holidays, and some problems begin to seem very far away.
But the dubious future of many endangered species is a problem that never lets up. Between habitat destruction and brutal poaching for the profitable ivory trade, elephants are one animal who could become extinct in our lifetime.
So, some people never stop working to help them survive.
The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (DSWT) has been bringing hope to the future of elephants, one orphaned elephant at a time.
Wendi, who now lives happily with a herd in Kenya's Tsavo National Parks, was one such orphan once.
Wendi was rescued by DSWT in 2002. She was only days old, and her mother had been killed by poachers. "So young that we do not believe she even received her mother's colostrum [first milk], so we gave her powdered colostrum in her first bottles of milk," DSWT wrote of Wendi's plight. "Wendi surviving was a miracle, made possible by our dedicated team of carers and their knowledge and expertise."
In a testament to the strength the DSWT lends to these otherwise lost animals, Wendi returned to the Orphans Project in October - to introduce the people who saved her to her newborn daughter.
"As elephant numbers continue to plummet across the continent, Wendi's new daughter gives us hope for the future of the species, who haven't given up hope yet," DSWT told The Dodo back in October. "We'll continue to work hard to keep this new family safe from poaching, human wildlife conflict and habitat destruction through our DSWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Teams and are blessed that she shared this special glimpse with us just hours after the birth of her daughter!"
Wendi's story shows just how far people at DSWT will go to save the lives of elephants. With each rescued orphan, their work begins again.
Give the gift of hope and kindness: Foster an elephant in the name of someone you love.
Join 220 countries and territories around the world for the global premiere of Racing Extinction on Wednesday, December 2, 9/8c on Discovery.

A global study of productivity, deoxygenation and ocean acidification at selected sites (2017-underway)
The oceans, with their high biodiversity and highly productive resources, provide important ecosystem services, these ecosystems have naturally adapted to the climatic variations that occur at different spatial and temporal scales, which manifest in changing biological properties, algal blooms, and declining levels of oxygen and acidity. Despite active oceanographic research related to climate change, there remain significant gaps in our knowledge of the adaptability and resilience of ecosystems to climate change, hence a Global Network will allow us to advance the knowledge and benchmarking of the oceans and major seas (i.e. Mediterranean Sea), by creating, where needed, data bases of the basic oceanographic variables (e.g. temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll concentration) and consolidating existing ones. The proposed global network will benefit from the previous NANO regional projects that included a strong observation component (e.g. NANO-Africa, NANO-Latin America projects). Therefore, the proposed global observation project is seen as the continuity of previous NANO regional projects that started gathering data during the last few year and helped several countries participating in NANO projects to acquire observation equipments. Also most importantly, this global project will build upon existing observation networks such as the Antares network.
- Promote in situ and remotely sensed observations of the ocean at selected coastal sites in order to contribute to the global effort of monitoring the levels of ocean acidification and deoxygenation;
- Provide opportunities to the project participants for capacity building to strengthen their efforts to monitor levels of acidification and oxygenation and to join larger observation networks of ocean acidification and deoxygenation (e.g. NANOOS, BIO-ACID);

Jang Nara is a South Korean singer and actress known for her work both in Korea and China. Born on March 18, 1981, she made her debut as a singer in 2001. She released many popular albums that produced many No. 1 songs, including her most popular song "Sweet Dream" from her second album.

Microsoft to Continue Relationship With Shavlik Technologies
Shavlik Technologies announced its Shavlik HFNetChkPro product line will continue supporting, as well as extend, the next generation of patch management tools from Microsoft.
Future Shavlik offerings will include Microsoft's free Windows Update Services (WUS) -- a product announced at the Microsoft Management Summit in Las Vegas earlier this week. WUS is a free software update solution for recent Microsoft products. It is designed to simplify the process of keeping networked computers current with the latest software updates and service packs.
Shavlik plans to add this support to its products when WUS becomes available later this year.
At that time, the vendor will also extend the capabilities of WUS and other Microsoft patch management tools through its other patch management product, Shavlik HFNetChkPro, as well as through enterprise solutions created by its partners, including, BindView, Marimba, Mobile Automation, and Symantec.
HFNetChkPro provides automated scanning and deployment of security patches.The latest version also offers granular control, enhanced management and reporting capabilities, and support for legacy operating systems for greater patch security.
Gartner Forecasts Anti-Spam Playing Field to Shrink
Gartner published a report this week surmising the enterprise spam-filtering industry will experience a dramatic vendor consolidation by the first quarter of 2005. The technology and consulting firm estimates that out of the approximately 40 vendors currently in this space, fewer than 10 will be operating by the end of this year.
The research revealed that during the next nine months, most vendor's competitive positions will change significantly in this immature industry because of rapid changes in market dynamics. In part, Gartner analysts concluded, this is because many vendors have been unable to deliver the best-of-breed functionality needed to fight spam.
At this time, those that do are small, new companies with a limited track record. Established vendors in related markets, such as antivirus, Web filtering, or firewall, are investing in spam-filtering, but to date their products have not met enterprise requirements.
"While many enterprise spam-filtering vendors will be gone or will refocus their technologies elsewhere by the end of this year, enterprises can't afford to delay decisions until the market shakes out," Maurene Caplan Grey, research director at Gartner, advises. "Their problems with spam have become too enormous."
The results from this spam filtering evaluation are available in "Gartner Research Note Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Spam Filtering, 1Q04." Gartner analysts have identified the vendors best positioned to lead the enterprise spam-filtering industry. Vendors offering software, appliances, and managed services providing boundary (Internet-SMTP level) solutions were evaluated.
The document is available for download from Gartner's Web site.
Among the vendors making announcements at this week's CeBIT show in Hanover, Germany was GFI. The multi-facted software developer unveiled plans to beef up its Linux options.
First on the agenda is a Linux version of GFI MailSecurity, followed by and GFI MailEssentials.
"Linux has matured as an operating system and is now a viable server and workstation platform for any organization," said CEO Nick Galea. "The fact that IBM, Novell and other major companies have committed to this platform means that the Linux market is poised for tremendous growth. We expect an increasing number of organizations to have mixed Linux/Windows environments, and they will therefore require their application vendors to support both Linux and Windows."
The first product to be released on Linux will be GFI MailSecurity. The anti-virus product will offer the same feature set on the Linux offering that is now available for Windows. A Linux version of GFI MailEssentials, GFI's server-based anti-spam product will follow.
The soon-to-be-released versions of GFI's two network security products, GFI LANguard S.E.L.M., an event monitoring tool, and GFI LANguard N.S.S., a network security scanner, will receive improved Linux support. When GFI LANguard N.S.S. v5 is released, it will feature extensive Linux security vulnerability checking. GFI LANguard S.E.L.M. v6, currently in development, will also be able to monitor Linux machines.
GFI's network monitoring application, GFI Network Server Monitor, currently includes Linux support via its RSH script execution. An increase in Linux support is planned that will include SSH support and additional in-built Linux checks and monitoring scripts.

"When I embarked on making the new album, "Live Life Long" I wanted to sort of bring back the old style themed album. You know, how all the songs back then used to sort of blend together one by one so nicely. A sort of melding if you will. I mean I just had this vision, this sort of, "verge to merge". So I went with it. And the reoccurring melody of the title track throughout the album came from an idea of incorporating a sort of cinematic score concept where on occasion a movie will have a repeated melody theme throughout the plot. I mean, in my head when I listen to my music, I see a film....."

A Step Beyond
If you use business computers, odds are you also rely on some of the productivity applications in Microsoft's mammoth Office Suite. But few folks venture past the most popular features in these broad and deep applications, so Microsoft hopes to show you what else it can do for your business through a series of free productivity seminars it's staging nationwide.
The Microsoft TouchPoint Series is far removed from the usual "How to Build a Graph in Excel" lecture. It starts with a fictitious company and the very common business challenges it faces. You're walked through the search for solutions with the help of Microsoft applications and will likely be exposed to tools you never knew existed. A typical starting point: "How many widgets do you need to sell at this price to reach the break-even point?" Before the end of this task, Excel's "Goal Seek" and "Scenarios" tools will have been dusted off-and a few "If only I had known" comments will probably be heard around the auditorium.
The TouchPoint Series also sheds light on new or lesser-known software apps like MapPoint, which aids in demographic analysis through stats, charts and maps. The seminar content refreshes quarterly, so repeat attendance is welcome. To find out when Microsoft's TouchPoint Series is coming to your area, visit www.mstps.com.
Feed the Need
Web feeds are creating a buzz around the Internet as a way to bring news, updates and information to users through XML-based RSS technology. There's some dispute over what RSS stands for, but the upshot is that it allows Web sites to syndicate their content. Leading companies employing RSS are Yahoo! (http://news.yahoo.com/rss), The New York Times (www.nytimes.com) and NewsGator (www.newsgator.com).
Web feeds can be a smart way for entrepreneurs to stay up-to-date on relevant news and updates. Or consider building Web feeds into your own site as a way to better communicate with customers and users. Web feeds will have to get more user-friendly for widespread adoption, but they're heading that way. For details, check out an RSS tutorial for content publishers at www.mnot.net/rss/tutorial, and visit Web feeds search engine Feedster (www.feedster.com).

…than to dwell in the tents of wickedness [Psalm 84:10]Well, the Pastor has certainly been doorkeeping today
The Garage had a load of rotten wood along the top of the door [removed with enthusiasm and the new crowbar]
And some work needed to be done on the kitchen door too
I love this door – it doesn't match any of the others, but it has lovely glass panels and blue and white ceramic knobs.
While Bob did all the carpenter stuff, I did laundry, and knitted. I have finished the back and one front of the cardi. The fronts are a little more complex, having curved edges. Liz and Jon are sending occasional progress reports – they reached Cromer in time for lunch!
Here's my knitting and a close up of my vintage row counter, which belonged to my MIL. It has a clever little 6" tape measure built in.
We had a 'bits and pieces' lunch, eating up all sorts from the fridge, including some of the tapenade I made Friday.
It has proved to be delicious and I am indebted to Jane at Maple Syrup Mob for the recipe [from Complete Vegan Cookbook] I omitted chilli flakes [wimp!] and substituted wine vinegar, and tomato puree as I didn't have either here.
- 1 cup black olives coarsely chopped
- 2 tbsp tomato juice
- 2 tbsp capers, drained
- 2tbsp dry sherry/red wine
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- half tsp chilli flakes
Place all ingredients in processor, pulse till fairly smooth. Serve immediately, or allow to age up to 2 weeks in fridge.
We drove into Dereham quickly after lunch, Bob needed a chisel. He still had his work overalls on. "Bet we meet someone I know" I said. …and we did!

Absence of Wedding Ring Connected to Parental Neglect
Parenting and Wedding
A social psychologist at the University of Alberta claims that people who do not wear wedding rings are more neglectful of children compared to people who wear them. Further, Dr. Andrew Harrell states that young attractive people who do not wear wedding rings are the most neglectful child caretakers of all.
The director of the U of A Population Research Lab, Harrell made his conclusions after leading an experiment in which 862 caretaker-children combinations were furtively observed in 14 supermarkets in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Caretaker neglect was measured according to how often the caretakers or their charges, estimated to be between one and seven years-old, wandered out of sight or were more than 10 feet away from each other--too far to prevent most accidents.
Harrell found that an average of 14 per cent of the caretakers, with or without wedding rings, lost sight of their charges at least once. However, young attractive female caretakers without rings lost sight of children 19 per cent of the time, and young attractive males lost sight 25 per cent of the time, a "statistically significant" jump, Harrell said.
"Past research suggests that the absence of a wedding ring in North American culture is indicative of a lack of emotional commitment to marriage," said Harrell. "Our research shows that it may also be an indicator of a lack of a commitment to one's family, including care of the children."
"It is our belief that an interest in establishing social, sexual or emotional ties outside of marriage may have the inadvertent consequence of diminishing attentiveness to children," Harrell added. "And it's not surprising that this distraction occurs even in a mundane setting like a supermarket, which is more than a place to purchase bananas and cereal. It can also be a place for social encounters and maybe even a romantic rendezvous."
Harrell presented the results of his research at the 17th Annual Warren E. Kalbach Conference in Demography, held recently at the University of Alberta.
A year ago, at the same conference, Harrell started a media storm when he suggested, based on similar research, that parents are more neglectful of unattractive children than they are of attractive children. This year, the findings from the study last year were replicated, with unattractive children being more neglected, particularly those older than three years of age.
Also this year, Harrell found that, among caretakers wearing wedding rings, the unattractive ones were more neglectful than the attractive ones.
"The unattractive parents could have health problems or psychological troubles that distract them from their parental duties," he said, adding that the observations are consistent with past evolutionary research on attractiveness and evolutionary fitness.
Harrell noted that the ratings of both parental and child attractiveness were "remarkably consistent" throughout the study, even though the observers made their judgments independently.
"I know these results may sound harsh, but suffice to say it's not good at all to let a child out of sight at a supermarket," he said. "We're just trying to determine the causes of accidents, because it's important to be aware of what happens and why it happens so that we can take steps to improve our behavior."

Promoting giftedness as pedagogic vision
In the 21st century one of the main cornerstones of schools is the promotion of giftedness and the highly gifted, starting in the early years of kindergarten up to secondary education and beyond.
The TIBI team, with scientific background as well as practice in teaching and coaching, address the pedagogic challenges of this topic.
The aim is to discover every child's and adolescent's potential in their specific environment and to support the gifted in developing and realizing their potentials. In this sense promoting giftedness can be understood as an instrument to support them in constructing their own life in a sensible way.
