2 Main Positioning Approaches To Make Use Of A Dual Monitor Configuration
Some people (like me) prefer to have one monitor set directly in front of them and they use it for the main tasks. They have the second monitor either set to the side or above the main monitor and use it for minor tasks such as referencing and background tasks such as playing music, etc. Personally, I use it for both plus I toss stuff onto the minor monitor that I want to read later and bring them to the main one when I'm ready to tackle them.
Other people like to use both monitors equally and have a dual monitor configuration where they are positioned more equally in front of them. They could have two very important tasks that they need to do simultaneously. I suppose a designer could have tools on one site and a view of the project on the other. Some people may even have something they're working on span both monitors.
What I did was scour Flickr to find examples of both approaches to making use of dual monitors. Let's take a look and see how it's done.
1. The Major and Minor Monitor Approach
It appears that nicksieger is using one monitor as the main workstation. Notice that the keyboard, mouse and light are centered over it and how the second monitor is off to the side. I'm not totally sure what's going on but the main monitor seems to have some sort of coding but I don't know about the second monitor. Either way, it's off to the side in more of a referencing or glancing position.
Andy Beal's setup has one monitor set to one side in order to keep an eye on social media, etc. and has some browsing going on with the main monitor. While I do rely on browser plugins to keep up with my Twitter fetish, having a secondary monitor to keep an eye on Facebook is very helpful. Andy seems to be doing something similar.
2. The Two Equal Monitors Approach
smemon87's setup is a good example of an equal monitor approach. He is doing what I do when using WordPress: use one for blogging and the other for previewing. Basically, if you hit the "Preview" button, you get another tab opening to preview the article. Pop it into its own window onto the second monitor and it'll refresh whenever you hit "Preview" again. Very cool!
memoreks seems to be doing the "browsing in one and email in the other" thing. For me, I'd have to do one of these at a time. Basically that's why I prefer one monitor to be dominant. If I'm browsing, I'll pop the browser into the main monitor. If I'm working on an email, I'll switch that program over. Some people prefer to have them both on an even playing field and that's OK too.
There you have it, both basic approaches with some good examples of each. Which approach do you prefer? Or would you rather have both monitors so close it seems they're looking back at you? Like tmray02's setup here.

John Galliano makes another androgynous statement in Paris, enlisting a cast of gender-fluid male models for the house's SS16 women's show
Today, a gang of models took to the Paris runway for John Galliano's second ready-to-wear collection for Maison Margiela clad in fishnet t-shirts, glam rock silver eye make-up and with limbs wrapped in clingfilm. Despite the event being a womenswear show, that gang included not just girls but guys – although, dressed in the same slinky, skin-exposing jumpsuits and jackets as their female counterparts, their presence went almost undetected. For those who have been paying attention to Galliano's work at Margiela, such casting decisions shouldn't come as a surprise – back in July, the designer blurred the boundaries of gender in fashion by enlisting androgynous boys to walk in Margiela's Artisanal show, something unheard of in the hallowed halls of haute couture.
While we've been seeing an increasing number of non-binary people take to the runway for underground designers (such as Eckhaus Latta, Vaquera, and Moses Gauntlett Cheng), the same diversity hasn't quite infiltrated the higher echelons of Paris fashion. This morning's show proved that change is coming, though. After all, clothes like Galliano's allow models to embody identities that go beyond a basic boy/girl divide. But who are the designer's gender-fluid muses? We tracked three of them down.
With blonde hair and blue eyes, Vincent embodies a very angelic type of androgyny. And while he loves dressing up as a woman (as evidenced by his Instagram), the Scoop Models signed talent identifies as male. When he's not storming Paris Fashion Week runways, Vincent straddles jobs working for Time's Up Vintage, a clothes shop located in Copenhagen, and with fashion designer Mark Kenly Domino Tan. In this show, he modelled a chest-exposing mesh top (with matching tights) and wrap skirt made from a floral fabric, layered over another skirt in silver.
Belgian model Maarten was scouted on Facebook by Hakim Model Management. He has studied fashion at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, whose alumni includes Martin Margiela himself, along with the Antwerp Six (Ann Demeulemeester, Dries Van Noten, Dirk Van Saene, Dirk Bikkembergs, Marina Yee and Walter van Beirendonck). Maarten wore a black halter jumpsuit-esque garment with white high heels.
For Carl, today wasn't his Margiela debut; he was cast in last season's show alongside fellow male models John Whiles and Roan Louch, as well as in the house's SS16 men's show. The Stockholm native, who is signed to Premium Models, starred in Loewe's beautiful SS15 lookbook shot by Dazed 100 photographer Jamie Hawkesworth. Aside from modelling, Carl plays in a band called Tella Viv. At today's show he wore a similar halter jumpsuit to Maarten, with a green blazer.

Today's Dieri language post is for our younger readers (or for older readers to share with younger language learners — if you click on the panel you will see it full size in a new window, which you can then print out if you want to).
Here is the dialogue and its translation going left to right.
|wardaru yini kaku? 'How are you older sister?'
|matya nganhi manyu 'I'm fine.'
|minha yundru ngankayi? 'What are you doing?'
|nganhi wapayi schoolanhi 'I am going to school.'
|yundru ngantyayi wapalha ngakangu? 'Do you want to walk with me?'
|pulu nganhi wapayi karari 'I can't go now.'
|ngandri ngakarni muntya 'My mother is sick.'
Here are the words in this dialogue — we have seen them all in previous blog posts but you can revise them here:
- kaku 'older sister' – but note that in Dieri we can use this term for both actual older sisters and for classificatory older sisters, that is, a girl who is like an older sister, such as an older female cousin
- karari 'now, today'
- manyu 'well, fine'
- matya 'just, OK'
- minha 'what?'
- muntya 'sick, ill, unwell' – this is the opposite of manyu 'well, fine'
- ngakangu 'with me' – this is the location form
- ngakarni 'my' – this is the possessor form
- ngandri 'mother' – this word is also used traditionally for 'mother's sister', your aunt on your mother's side
- nganhi 'I' – the intransitive subject form
- ngankayi 'be doing' – this is made up of the verb root nganka-rna 'to do, work, make' and the ending -yi 'present tense, doing now'
- ngantyayi 'want' – this is made up of the verb root ngantya-rna 'to want, like' and the ending -yi 'present tense, doing now'
- pulu 'cannot' – this word must come before the verb (the action word in the sentence)
- schoolanhi 'to school' — this is made up of the English noun school and the ending -nhi 'location, in(to) a place'
- wapayi 'be going, be walking' – this is made up of the verb root wapa-rna 'to go, walk' and the ending -yi 'present tense, doing now'
- wapalha 'to go, to walk' – this is made up of the verb root wapa-rna 'to go, walk' and the ending -lha 'in order to' when the subject is the same as the subject of the previous verb (in this example ngantyayi 'want')
- wardaru 'how?'
- yini 'you (one person)' – the intransitive subject form
- yundru 'you (one person)' – the transitive subject form
Note: The title of today's post means 'Dieri language for young children'. I made this cartoon with Make Beliefs Comix, a free website where you can create your own comics and print them out — give it a try and make your own Dieri language comic!

|Tribute to Mystic Ed in the Express & Star 29/03/2013
Former guest on the Oral Fix podcast, a friend to myself and others in Europe and around the world, Francis Edward a.k.a. "Mystic Ed" passed away yesterday in a hospital in England. A sudden and unexpected passing. Took us all by shock and tears. I had the great privilege to be Ed and Fluffy's friend for the last five years. We me via Flickr.com, then to become good friends via email and Skype. Ed wed his life partner Brian Murphy a.k.a "Fluffy" in England and shared that beautiful moment in their life via their Flickr photostream. As well as other dear moments in their lives. Shared freely with the world. As he did with his genuine love for people and life.
|Mystic Ed(Francis Ward), Episode #51 Cover Photo
Ed was a shining light in the darkness in many of our lives. His wisdom and advice was sought by people around the world. He and his husband Fluffy came onto the Oral Fix to share themselves and psychic expertise as Gay men last year. I won't forget when he said on the show that when we pass on and reincarnate he believed that our sexuality will remain the same. We will continue to be homosexuals. This episode scored top five of the most listened to episodes to date here on the Oral Fix podcast(episode #51). Many of his friends (including myself) mourn lack of his presence online this week. Last we heard from him he was taking a few days off from Facebook.
A great soul indeed and will never be forgotten. Sending lots of love and light to Mystic Ed's journey on the other side As well to his husband and friend Fluffy.
Quote from Ed's friend Thomas Stacey:
"March 10th , The beautiful soul Mystic Ed said: "Do not stand by my grave and weep, I am only in the next room, I did not die" I guess we will of course weep and some may cry a river but lets remember his wisdom and spiritual awareness that the soul never dies as well."

Hair care tips for summer
As summer descends upon us, our thoughts start to turn to barbeques, and time at the beach. We are all mostly conscious of using skin care, and solar protection products to look after our skin, especially when laying in the sun. But we may not be as conscious about the needs of our hair during this warmer and sunnier period of the year. Here are some ideas and tips which may help.
The increase in the temperature can cause an increase in the levels of perspiration and dust that becomes trapped on our scalps. This can lead to a range of hair and scalp conditions, like dandruff, which in turn can affect the hair. This increase in temperature can also lead to split ends and frizziness. Using a conditioner, like Revlon EQUAVE Instabt Beauty hydro nutritive detangling conditioner, can help to maintain the moisture within your hair as the heat rises.
Throughout the season, there is still the desire to have bouncy, shiny and hydrated hair. There are several tips that may help on a day by day basis:
- Instead of shampooing the life out of your hair, co-wash your hair, using conditioner only.
- Try using a dry shampoo, or in an emergency, shake some baby powder through your help to remove the excess oils.
- If swimming regularly, try a shampoo and conditioner, made for swimmers. It may also help to stop the green chlorine effect on blond hair.
- Ensure you avoid products with an alcohol or formaldehyde base. These products are very drying to your hair.
With the increase in the temperature, humidity, and the bright UV laden sunlight, our hair has to deal with a different range of issues. If we treat our hair the same during the summer, as at other times of the year, we will almost certainly be causing it some damage.
The harsh seasonal sunlight brings with it an increase in both UVA and UVB rays, varying levels of humidity, and the bright sunlight, as well as an increase in the temperature. All of these situations can create issues for our hair care routines.
UVA and UVB rays are both damaging to our skin; they are also able to cause our hair problems. These rays can dehydrate, and also damage the elasticity of the hair, leading to a loss of strength. The hair will feel rough, and will require more force when brushing. This may lead to greater breakages. Another effect from these rays is the fading of the hair color.
The best form of solar protection for the hair is a hat or a scarf. If neither of these options are suitable, the use of a hair care product with UV protection is advised. If at the beach, after applying sun screen to your body, rub your hands over your hair to lightly coat your hair with the sunscreen. Be sure to wash it out afterwards. To help preserve the color lustre of colored hair, during the harsher months of the year, using Shu Uemura – Color Lustre Collection, will boost the moisture and shine, and will provide color retention to your hair.
Humidity and hair don't mix. As the humidity rises in the summer, hair starts to fall flat, becoming limp and lifeless, and developing that seemingly uncontrollable frizz. Living Proof – FRIZZ nourishing styling cream is able to help control the frizz by blocking the humidity, and providing a tame and shiny appearance to your hair.
For those times when your hair just needs to be pampered, to restore that lost moisture, and get back the lost life; you may want to try Kerastase – Nutritive range. It has been created to target dryness, leaving hair soft to the touch, and amazingly supple.
With this tips and some good hair products you will mantain your hair smooth and healthy until the end of summer days. Tell us which are your tricks to take care of your hair on summer!

I haven't had a bath in years. In certain times in our history, and in certain cultures of the world today, that wouldn't be such an odd thing. But you say that in the good ol' US of A, and people look at you like you've just declared underwater basket weaving to be the greatest sport ever conceived.
So let me clarify: we take showers at our house. Ease of use is the big reason – just hop in, lather up, rinse off and out you go. No waiting for the tub to fill up, no fighting off the cat who just has to play with the bubbles and inevitably falls in, and no temptation to lean back and fall asleep, to emerge a gigantic prune an hour later. Another reason is that the bath tubs provided in tract-built SoCal homes are barely big enough to be foot baths for the likes of my husband and me. We've come to the conclusion that what contractors and manufacturers determine to be "normal" sized has actually been measured against the Oompa-Loompas from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
The downstairs bathroom has the usual shower/tub combo. The tub is the "standard" size for a residential home. That being, about 4.5 feet long by about 1.5 feet wide by about a foot deep. Go check out your own tub, and you'll probably come close to this. Now, find a NFL linebacker and put him in your tub. Add water. If you manage to get more than three cups of water in without it overflowing, than your linebacker is too small and probably needs to be traded. Otherwise, you now have a pretty good idea what it's like for me and my husband to try and take a bath in something considered "normal" sized. We look longingly at four-person hot tubs, thinking "Wow. I might actually be able to stretch out in that." Note the singular, by the way.
And upstairs in the master bath, they thought they'd get all fancy and we have a shower stall separate from the tub. Now, mind you, the shower stall is barely three feet square, so putting the likes of one of us in it becomes an exercise in contortionism, but we've been in far smaller (or no stall at all) while camping, so it's not that big of a deal. The tub, however, makes me wonder if somewhere someone shrunk the blueprints and never told the builder. It's supposed to be one of those nice little soaker tubs, a lovely oval with plenty of surround for all the candles and bath salts you'll be using. It's four feet long, two feet wide at the widest point, and ten inches deep. Yup, ten inches deep. If I could lay flat on my back in the thing, my nose would stick up past the rim. At least we know I wouldn't drown.
I actually tried taking a bath in the upstairs tub shortly after we moved into the house, thinking that it would be a nice, relaxing thing to do after the three hour one-way commute from the West LA job I had at the time. Putting aside the fact I could only get half my body wet at a time, I also hadn't had my knee replacements yet, so getting up and down was a bit of a challenge. When it came time to get out of the tub, I couldn't. The whole thing was so low to the floor, and I was so slippery from being bubble-bathed, I couldn't get any leverage to get up, and there was no panic bar. I toyed with the idea of just rolling over the edge and onto my hands and knees, but there would have been a tidal wave of water and suds onto the upstairs vinyl floor and I just didn't want to deal with that mess. So I called for my big, burly husband. The man who can hold up an engine block with one hand while changing the transmission with the other. The man who moves 248lb. blacksmith's anvils around the garage like they're child-sized.
The man who contemplated getting his engine hoist when he couldn't get me out of the tub.
To be fair, the problem was largely one of extreme slippery surfaces combined with lack of sufficient leverage. We ended up draining the tub and using towels for rescue ropes to get me out. Needless to say, I've never done that again, and the tub now largely serves the cats as an ambush site, when one is lying in wait for the other to go to the litter box. Much more entertaining than taking a bath.
And the sad truth is, even once we lose the weight we want and get back to our fighting form, as it were, we'll still be far too large for those puny little tubs. We're both descended from those giants of the European north, those Germanic rabble rousers who refused to bow to Rome's demands and made Charlemagne decide doing his nails was more important than crossing that last border. We are not Oompa-Loompas.
As a child, we all want to be "normal," to fit in and have friends and just cruise through the world unnoticed and without hassle. Well, that wasn't the childhood I had, and it certainly isn't the adulthood that's followed. My current challenge is to accept that, since I've never been "normal" before, it's okay to not be "normal" now. Or ever, for that matter.
Now to just figure out how to fit a four-person hot tub in the upstairs bathroom…

Battlefield Heroes Class Guide
Battlefield Heroes is a free to play first or third-person shooter brought to you by EA. It is suitable for a blast of casual fun with accessible gameplay and a cute cartoon art style. If you are completely new to the game and want to know how to get started then check out our Battlefield Heroes Basic Guide. In this article we are going to explain the classes in the game and take a look at their weaponry and abilities. We'll also take a closer look at widgets you can equip.
Three Classes
There are three classes in Battlefield Heroes and each has their own set of abilities. Both factions, the National Army and the Royal Army, have the same three class choices. Each class can carry two weapons and one explosive and they can all use any of the three vehicles: jeeps, tanks and planes. The three classes are the Soldier, the Gunner and the Commando. Let's take a closer look.
The Soldier
The Soldier is a good dependable character with offensive and defensive skills. He falls in between the other two classes in terms of movement speed and health. He starts with the Sub Machine Gun and the Shotgun and his explosive of choice is the TNT. Here are his abilities:
- Blasting Strike – You can knock back all enemies and vehicles with this ability. Try firing them into buildings for maximum damage. This ability starts with an 18 second cool down period before you can use it again.
- Grenade Spam – This allows you to throw multiple grenades at once. To begin with you can throw three grenades together and it has a cool down period of 20 seconds.
- 6th Sense – This ability allows you to see enemies on the battlefield even if they are behind cover. The first level only lasts 6 seconds and it has a 15 second cool down period.
- Burning Bullets – This super charges your Sub Machine Gun bullets so that they set enemies on fire. The first level ability does 20 damage over time, the ability lasts for 4 seconds and it has a 15 second cool down period.
- Combat Medicine – Instantly heal yourself and all nearby team mates. The first level of this ability will heal you by 15% and it has an 8 meter radius of effect and a 20 second cool down period.
The Gunner
The Gunner is the heavy class and he handles the big guns. He starts with the Heavy Machine Gun and the Shotgun and uses Sticky TNT as his explosive. He is the slowest of the three classes but he has the most health. Here are his abilities:
- I Eats Grenades – This allows the Gunner to literally eat nearby grenades. At the first level each grenade that goes off will boost his health by 5%, it lasts for 5 seconds and he eats all grenades in an 8 meter radius. The cool down period is 15 seconds.
- Hero Shield – This shield absorbs damage. At the first level it lasts for 10 seconds, has a cool down period of 15 seconds and can absorb 30 damage points.
- Explosive Keg – Hurl a barrel at your foe and then shoot it to create a big explosion. The keg does 35 damage in an 8 meter radius and it has a 15 second cool down.
- Leg It – A useful speed boost which lasts 4 seconds and allows you to escape a hairy situation. The cool down period is 15 seconds.
- Frenzy Fire – This gives your Heavy Machine Gun an accuracy boost for 3 seconds and it has a 15 second cool down period.
The Commando
The Commando is equipped with the Sniper Rifle and the Knife and he uses Sticky TNT as his explosive. He is the fastest of the three classes but he also has the least health. Here are his abilities:
- Elixir – This gives him a speed boost for 5 seconds and boosts Shield Value by 10. It has a cool down of 15 seconds.
- Poisoned Blade – This adds damage over time to any knife attack as the victim is poisoned. It lasts for 5 seconds and will do an extra 15 damage. It has a 15 second cool down period.
- Mark Target – This allows you to pick out enemy targets for your team mates and earn extra points. It marks the target for 8 seconds and has a 15 second cool down period.
- Stealth – You can slip off the enemy radar with the Stealth ability. The first level works over a 15 meter radius and has a 25 second cool down. If anyone gets close enough they can see you.
- Troop Trap – You can place a proximity mine with this ability. When the enemy gets close it explodes. It will do 30 damage and it has a 23 second cool down period.
- Piercing Shot – This boosts your sniper rifle attacks increasing damage by 13. It lasts for 5 seconds and has a 15 second refresh rate.
All abilities have five levels and they can be upgraded in the My Stuff, Abilities tab by clicking on the + marked on each ability. Obviously you need Hero Points to actually upgrade them but you'll earn them as your character develops. As the abilities are upgraded they improve with increased damage, longer windows of opportunity and smaller cool down periods. You equip abilities by dragging them onto your Equipment Bar.
Also located in the My Stuff tab are widgets. These are special items you can equip for handy bonuses in game. You equip widgets by dragging them onto your Equipment Bar. You can buy widgets in the Store.
- Bandages – These restore a minor portion of your health over time. They also prevent burning and poison effects.
- Wrench – The wrench allows vehicle repair and will boost the hit points of the vehicle you are in by a small amount.
- XP Boost – This will boost the amount of experience you get during gameplay. You don't need to equip this once you have bought it.
- VP Boost – This will boost the amount of Valor Points you get during gameplay. You don't need to equip this once you have bought it.
Creating New Characters
When you start the game you have the option to create four separate characters. You can always create a new character when you are signed in via the link in the top right of the Battlefield Heroes website. There are enough slots to try out all three classes so it is worth seeing what suits you best. You can also purchase more slots if you are eager to create more characters. There is currently no way to delete a character once created.

Improve Your Bottom Line With Strategic Business Leads
If lead generation is a mystery to you, you naturally want to solve it. This article is the best place for you to start. Continue reading to ind some great hints and techniques on lead generation.
Be mindful of consumer buying cycles so that you can generate more leads that have a huge impact on your profits. People typically see an offer and then research it before making a purchasing decision. If you're able to target the content and offers to that cycle, you may help them consider buying from you!
Consumer reviews can help you when attempting to revamp your lead generation techniques. Consumers are more likely to give their information and will probably buy your products when you provide supportive data. Use studies that are relevant to help your product stand out, and offer testimonials from customers you made happy in the past.
Learn about the value of leads. Some leads simply won't be what you need for your current campaign. Focus on your target audience; don't bother with leads that aren't suitable. You can be more successful by choosing the proper leads.
Clear up any privacy or opt-out issues. You've got to be on top of the leads that have chosen to opt in for an offer. Otherwise, you may develop a reputation as a spammer.
Check that you are getting original leads in your campaigns. It is not difficult to get so involved in purchasing or obtaining leads in other manners that you forget that some of your leads may be duplicates. It is not uncommon to have leads appear more than once. When targeting a group of leads, ensure they are each unique so that your campaign is garnering maximum exposure.
Take advantage of whatever any lead groups you find online can offer. If you have a hyperlocal business, these groups can really help you. You can exchange contact information with like-minded folks and set up some type of referral system.
When developing lead generation, it is important to find people who want to purchase your product. Broad spectrum leads can help get your name out in the community. Your results will be better if your lead gathering is tailored to gather key pieces of information that informs you your product is needed.
Talk to the other people as you are waiting in a line. There is nothing wrong with being courteous and they may need what it is you have to offer. Do not drop in the sales pitch too quickly. Try feeling them out to determine if they're interested in your goods without seeming too eager.
Come up with a lead generation calendar. It is important to organize all of your leads and stay on top of them. Creating a schedule makes you come off as more professional and friendly. You can also use this scheduling idea to avoid the pitfall of pitching repeatedly to the same prospects.
Having absorbed the techniques in this article, you are now poised for success. Put this knowledge into action now! If you get started soon you will reach your goals much faster since there will be new customers coming your way.

Palliative care services grow
Thursday April 24 2014
Infrastructure and manpower to facilitate access to palliative care in Uganda has doubled over the past two years.
This was revealed yesterday at a media sensitisation workshop organised by the Palliative Care Association of Uganda (PCAU).
Palliative care is a specialised approach that involves providing patients with life limiting serious conditions relief from pain and stressing symptoms.
In 2011, the World Health Organisation statistics showed that only 10 per cent of the country's population had access to palliative care.
By then, there were about 120 specially trained nurses in 60 districts to serve the 33 million population.
Three years later, with a population that is estimated at 37 million, the country director of PCAU, Ms Rose Kiwanuka, noted progress.
"Currently, there are 230 nurses specially trained in 82 districts. They are supplemented by clinical officers and even doctors to deliver Palliative care at the 131 facilities that are accredited. We also have 12 stand-alone health centre providing Palliative services," Ms Kiwanuka said.
However, literacy and knowledge about the availability of the service and what it entails remains low and scanty.
"People still have fear for drugs like morphine. They are unaware of its use and how vital it is as a pain reliever in the palliative process," Ms Kiwanuka said.
PCAU has been conducting workshops and trainings countrywide to create awareness.
"We are looking at covering all the districts. While we are at it, more sensitisation has to be undertaken. We want the country to know what is happening in the communities," Ms Kiwanuka said.
The country director also sighted lack of information form the different centres providing palliative care as another challenge that is clumping down on their ability to assess the state of the service in the country.
"We have a problem with evaluation in terms of how many people are actually accessing the service. There is little or even no documentation at the different health centre. For now, we are using estimation."
To sensitise all the districts about palliative care, more personnel have to be trained and health centres built. According to Treat the Pain Uganda statistics 2013, there was backlog of 80 health facilities awaiting accreditation.
"For now, the focus is on training and then later we will be accrediting these health centres so that they can also become operational," Ms Harriet Kebirungi, a PCAU training officer, said.
For a health centre to be accredited, it must have at least a qualified and trained medical practitioner in the Palliative care field.
No data:
The PCAU country director, Ms Rose Kiwanuka, also sighted lack of information from different centres providing palliative care thus hindering their ability to assess the state of the services in the country.

Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) appears to offer a systematic means for case-oriented analysis. The method not only offers to provide a standardized procedure for qualitative research but also serves, to some, as an instantiation of deterministic methods. Others, however, contest QCA because of its deterministic lineage. Multiple other issues surrounding QCA, such as its response to measurement error and its ability to ascertain asymmetric causality, are also matters of interest.
Logit and probit models are widely used in empirical sociological research. However, the common practice of comparing the coefficients of a given variable across differently specified models fitted to the same sample does not warrant the same interpretation in logits and probits as in linear regression. Unlike linear models, the change in the coefficient of the variable of interest cannot be straightforwardly attributed to the inclusion of confounding variables. The reason for this is that the variance of the underlying latent variable is not identified and will differ between models.
The terms terror, terrorism, and terrorist do not identify causally coherent and distinct social phenomena but strategies that recur across a wide variety of actors and political situations. Social scientists who reify the terms confuse themselves and render a disservice to public discussion. The U.S. government's own catalogs of terrorist events actually support both claims.
In this article we ask what it means for sociologists to practice intersectionality as a theoretical and methodological approach to inequality. What are the implications for choices of subject matter and style of work? We distinguish three styles of understanding intersectionality in practice: group-centered, process-centered, and system-centered. The first, emphasizes placing multiply-marginalized groups and their perspectives at the center of the research.
A critical pathway for conceptual innovation in the social is the construction of theoretical ideas based on empirical data. Grounded theory has become a leading approach promising the construction of novel theories. Yet grounded theory–based theoretical innovation has been scarce in part because of its commitment to let theories emerge inductively rather than imposing analytic frameworks a priori. We note, along with a long philosophical tradition, that induction does not logically lead to novel theoretical insights.
According to a memo obtained by The New York Times on October 21, the Department of Health and Human Services is seeking to establish a legal definition of sex under Title IX based on "a biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable." The proposed definition would allow only a binary classification that is immutable and based on genitalia at birth. ASA sent a letter to the Secretary of DHHS expressing strong objection to this proposal which fails to reflect the findings from extensive sociological literature on this subject.

I think that a BGP mechanism to tag routes as "ignore all more specifics" would solve this problem nicely. (and perhaps a whole lot others -- such as needless deaggregation)
As far as router vendors such as Cisco autosecure, I do not think there is any way to make default access lists lossless. They should step up to the plate and offer md5 by system serial number keyed multihop BGP bogons in the manner of cymru. Its their responsibility. Also good that it makes them eat even more of their own dogfood which is probably ill suited to this kind of thing.
They should ask team cymru to help them do it and give them a nice fat check while they are at it.
Failing that they could offer radius/tacaccs loading of that access list. Anything else is negligence.
And using BGP for /32 blacklist routes probably has very limited scalability. Any one have any relevant numbers?
Everybody who posts lists of static access lists should seriously consider stopping. If not that, offer an email subscription to announce updates.

We had a wonderful Easter! After a great service at ACF, Trace had some freezing fun hunting eggs on the playground. Then we went to Meme and Granddaddy's where we celebrated Easter and my mom's birthday with family! Then Trace had his 2nd Egg Hunt which was also lots of fun. He looked adorable in his big boy tie and linen pants! My little man is growing up! He decided instead of smiling on Easter, he wanted to make a silly Easter Bunny face! It was so cute and funny! Hope everyone had a blessed Easter. He Is Risen Indeed!!! Thank You Jesus!

i absolutely can not believe my sweet baby boy is one!!! where has time gone? trace had a wonderful birthday weekend! i was off work on friday and trace and i had lunch with nate then we went shopping! then saturday, on trace's birthday, we woke up to snow on the ground! we had to cancel our plans for the park and we went to burger king instead! trace loved playing in the playland there... daddy watched from the ground while trace and i braved our way to the top! we will go again soon b/c trace really had fun. he cried when we finally went down the slide... he wasn't ready to leave! we had his party sunday evening at the church. we had lots of family and close friends there to help us celebrate. as you can see in the pics, trace was so cute! he loved all his presents and especially the CAKE!!!!! monday he went to the dr for his 12 month visit. he weighs 20 pounds 4 oz and is 31 1/4 inches long, which puts him in the 90th % for his height!!! God has truly blessed us the past year with such a healthy baby. we are so proud of trace and the sweet boy he is growing up to be. despite the few temper tantrums, mostly he is still very laid back and easy-going! he has taken a few steps but for the most part he likes crawling best, it's faster!! we are working to get trace off the bottle to a sippy cup - but so far, he is stubborn as stubborn comes. he does not seem a bit interested in drinking from a cup. even though it's still the same ol formula in there, he acts like we are trying to make him drink poison. he wants NOTHING to do with the cup! oh well, for now, he's still a baby to me! we will continue working with him and see if we have any luck! ok. i'm rambling now... hope ya'll enjoy the pictures!!!!

Biomass Growth in 2014: Will the Trend Hold?
Recently, an energy insider who has been in the business a long time asked me the following question: With all the recent development in the industry, can the trend continue?
I thought about it for a minute, and reviewed the list we put together of all the projects that came on line during 2013. It was a wide spectrum of projects, from the 103-MW Gainesville Renewable Energy Center to EDF's twin 17.8-MW facilities in South Carolina. These were South Carolina's first biomass facilities, and Virginia, Wisconsin and Georgia saw completion of first facilities as well.
All told, new biomass facilities in 2013 accounted for 627.5 MW, enough to power close to half a million homes and businesses. My friend observed that last year's biomass growth was at least double the growth of any year in recent memory.
My answer to his first question was a little nuanced. Industry growth won't continue at the same pace every year for the foreseeable future. That's just not realistic, nor is it sustainable. However, there are several indicators that support a long-term biomass growth outlook:
• Inconsistency of gas prices. During the nationwide cold snap throughout January, the value of biomass has really come into focus in places like New England. While energy prices skyrocketed due to high demand, fossil fuels weren't able to keep up. Biomass power became an essential resource, and without it, prices would have spiked even higher. Biomass will never be the primary energy source for any region of the country, but the polar vortex showed us that it is a reliable backup plan during severe weather.
• A new emphasis on forestry and better forest maintenance. The USDA and U.S. Forest Service are increasingly acknowledging the significant benefits of—and even urgent need for—consistent and thorough forest maintenance. Of course, forest maintenance comes with a byproduct, forest trimmings, that must be disposed of somehow. Luckily, biomass offers a productive outlet for these materials. Rather than open burning or landfilling them, trimmings can be used to produce clean energy. Add to this the mountains of research that have come out recently on the benefits of forest maintenance. For instance, University of California, Berkeley, forester Bill Stewart found that forest management, despite its removal of carbon stocks from a forest, does nothing to reduce that forest's overall carbon content over the long term. Findings like this support a large-scale commitment to improved forestry, which can only benefit the biomass industry.
• Biomass sustainability and benefits are consistently reinforced by science. After beginning a conversion project of four facilities in Northern Canada from coal to biomass, Ontario Power Generation conducted a study with the Pembina Institute to "determine if biomass sourced from Ontario's forests would be renewable; to better understand the greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction benefits of biomass; and to estimate the socioeconomic benefits that would result from electricity production from biomass." What they found was remarkable: When practicing sustainable forestry, the carbon supply of the forest was not reduced, even when factoring in the use of 2 million tons of wood pellets each year for biomass. Beyond sustainability, biomass was found to be a major boon to reducing GHG emissions: "Averaged over the period, there is an 80 percent reduction in GHG emissions for biomass compared to the base case of natural gas electricity."
My answer to my friend's second question was an unequivocal, "No." I am not pessimistic at all about biomass growth. On the contrary, I think last year's new projects, combined with renewed support from science and government sources, signal an overall move toward embracing sensible biomass facilities. In other words, where they make sense relative to available forest and urban wood residues. For all of these reasons, biomass is here to stay.

LINC Housing joined with the City of Los Angeles, the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission, the California Department of Housing and Community Development, and other partners to celebrate the start of construction at Mosaic Gardens at Westlake, an all-new 125-home affordable apartment community near Downtown Los Angeles.
Mosaic Gardens at Westlake, at 111 S. Lucas Avenue in Los Angeles, will feature 80 one-, 15 two- and 30 three-bedroom homes for low-income families and seniors. Half of the apartments will be for formerly homeless households who are referred by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services.
"I am thrilled to welcome Mosaic Gardens to the 13th Council District, and to work with a great partner in LINC Housing to build this sorely needed affordable housing development in the Westlake community," said Mitch O'Farrell, Councilmember, 13th Council District, City of Los Angeles. "In addition, this project allows 63 units specifically for extremely low-income individuals and will provide the health resources and supportive services to help them succeed."
The new development is part of LINC Housing's commitment to integrate affordable housing with health resources and other services for stronger neighborhoods. LINC's partnership with the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services and Ocean Park Community Center will allow the nonprofit to support 63 formerly homeless households through intensive case management including mental health and physical health services, employment counseling and job placement, education, substance abuse counseling, money management, assistance in obtaining and maintaining benefits, and referrals to community-based services and resources.
The complex will sit on six contiguous parcels for a total of 1.19 acres and will feature shared community levels and two multi-story towers. One tower is five-stories above two stories of subterranean parking with a 1,700-sq. ft. community room, two open courtyards, laundry room, an elevator, and a main pedestrian entrance. The second tower is four-stories above one story of subterranean parking, a 3,500-sq. ft. community room, a central courtyard, laundry facilities and an elevator. The complex will also have a community garden, computer lab, health and wellness room, playground, and convenient access to public transportation, shopping and services. The site was formerly blighted with dilapidated structures and covered with broken down cars, trash and unmaintained overgrowth.
Mosaic Gardens at Westlake has been registered with the U.S. Green Building Council and intends to pursue a LEED Platinum certification. Sustainable features include high efficiency HVAC, water fixtures, central hot water heating systems and irrigation system, drought tolerant planting, storm water management plan to reduce water runoff, 49 secure bicycle storage spaces, and EnergyStar appliances in resident units and laundry room.
"LINC and our partners are creating real change in this neighborhood with new affordable housing for families and seniors, helping solve Los Angeles' homeless crisis, and creating hundreds of construction and long-term jobs," said Rebecca Clark, LINC president and CEO. "And we're not just going to build the complex and leave. We're in it for the long term, providing supportive services for the seniors and families who will call Mosaic Gardens at Westlake their home."
Funding for the $57.1-million development comes from a number of sources including the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission, City of Los Angeles Housing + Community Investment Department funds, the California Department of Housing and Community Development, a conventional loan from Citi Community Capital, tax credit equity from Raymond James Tax Credit Funds Inc., and Affordable Housing Program funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Ongoing operating support is being provided by the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. Additional support was provided by Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH), The California Endowment, The Ahmanson Foundation, and JPMorgan Chase Foundation.
The community was designed by Lahmon Architects, and the contractor is Walton Construction Services. Construction is due to be complete mid 2018.

Thinking Ahead to the New Year
Crazy things go through my head as I'm thinking ahead and rounding the bend into the New Year. You reading this are saying, "It's not even Halloween yet. What are you talking about?"
Well let me explain. If you are going to be thankful at Thanksgiving and wishful at Christmas, it has to include the New Year because you have to include the past, the present and the future in all your thankfulness and wishfulness. So this means thinking of the New Year now.
Fact is, whether it's consciously or unconsciously thought about, New Years is always part of our lives. Every time we talk about hopes and dreams for the future, that's all the New Years to get there. Every time we talk about family plans and retirement and vacations, that's all the New Years to set them in place. We are a never ending line of New Years always in motion to get to the next one to see what it will be like. And we always hope that the one coming will be better than the one that's leaving.
So you see, our future is really all of our New Years to come, which we are always looking forward to and thinking about all the time. So I'm really not too early to be thinking about New Years.
Interesting perspective isn't it? What do you think?

Back again and ready to share a Father's Day Card I put together once I got my "Its A Man's World" stamp set from Sweet Stamp Shop. Truly though, this card came to mind before I ever ordered the set. I set eyes on its cute little bow ties& my mind went crazy with all the cute stuff I could do with it.
This is just the first one I have put into action.
In fact, if my ATG tape refills were here I'd probably be having a crafty day putting together lots of cards. (I've resorted to cutting everything out and laying them to wait)

Keeping legitimate wellbeing records has dependably been an errand of fundamental significance inside the universe of wellbeing and medication. As individuals find better approaches to utilize this data, be that as it may, it has started to go up against a part that goes past the wellbeing of individual patients. These records are aiding the techniques that different offices use to achieve such errands as checking general wellbeing, finding sickness inclines, and growing examination potential.
At the base level, keeping appropriate wellbeing records can help the person by giving specialists a chance to have admittance to their medicinal history, test comes about, and other germane data. This accumulation of data is currently being transformed into measurements in regards to populaces and being shared among many fields, each with an alternate concentrate on wellbeing related issues. As innovation makes it less demanding to keep and appropriate records, this data turns out to be more profitable in having the capacity to see the general picture of why individuals might become ill and in curing them also. Analysts can even utilize this data to discover patients that are significant to specific clinical trials, speeding along the procedure of their exploration.
Inside general society field, the associations and divisions that capacity with the end goal of keeping the general wellbeing have another apparatus in observing where sickness patterns are emerging. By perceiving these patterns early, wellbeing authorities may be able to discover possibly unsafe components inside the earth, for example, substance spills or other air, ground, and water contaminations that might taint a territory with affliction. This data may likewise be utilized to see examples of nourishment sullying before it turns into a noteworthy wellbeing emergency.
Regularly, indications of ailment won't show up in a grown-up populace, in spite of the fact that babies are significantly more vulnerable to even little measures of harmful materials. Wellbeing records can be utilized to see examples of risky medical problems among youngsters. From that point the conceivable causes can be researched and the correct strides taken so as to discover the birthplaces of these medical problems and stop their proceeded with spread.

Care of Tools By Tee on 11/8/2011Tee would recommend this product to a friendAll customers should rinse these tools in a tap water after using them in saltwater and wipe them dry before store until next use...
Great starter kit By Phil on 5/23/2011Phil would recommend this product to a friendFor the price I was expecting flimsy bone cutters and inferior scissors. Boy was I wrong. These are serious tools that will last for years. This kit has everything you need to start fragging.
great product By bobby on 2/24/2011bobby would recommend this product to a friendthese tools are very well made great set
Great By Tee on 12/28/2010Tee would recommend this product to a friendI purchased those and enjoyed it a lot. The only thing I recommend is to rinse these tools under tap water each use and dry them with paper or cotton towel before restoring them until next use. Mines are great and I love them...
A must have for any SPS reef tank! By Lyfey on 9/16/2010Lyfey would recommend this product to a friendThis is a must have for any SPS reefer, I especially like the scissors, they are very sharp and possibly the best pair of scissors I have ever owned. The bone cutting shears are also very nice, even though they are made of stainless steel, its best after use to rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly before storage. Even if you dont they may become a tad rusty and hard to use, but after opening and closing them a few times they easily come back to normal use. They are also spring loaded which is a nice feature.
Perfect little kit! By Adam on 8/20/2010Adam would recommend this product to a friendI wanted something that was cost effective but still had all of the right tools. I currently have razor blades and a dremmel, but I need something that I could grab small items with and then a strong pair of cutting tools. This kit fits the bill and I have use the snips many times and not a spot of rust or anything!
This is a great value, ohh and the glue works great too!
Stoked! By Brandon on 8/9/2010Brandon would recommend this product to a friendI was super stoked to open up this product and use all the tools for the first time. Having the proper tools to propagate makes things quick and cause less damage to the coral. Your corals will benefit from the use of these tools no question!
OK Basic Set By Ron on 6/10/2010Ron wouldn't recommend this product to a friendMedium quality tool set that I use occassionally. I was more impressed by the Reef Glue Gel which is good quality and a good amount. I will be ordering more of that.
poor By Mike on 5/16/2010Mike wouldn't recommend this product to a friendthis equipment is supposed to be stainless steel. However, after one trip in saltwater rust started to appear. ALL of the part say "made in Pakistan", and clearly of very poor quality. I would NOT buy this.
No questions yet. Be the first to ask a question!

Water at supercritical conditions is a strange beast and has some remarkable chemistry. It is a fluid with properties that are a blend of gas and liquid properties. Steam at supercritical conditions (around 220 – 250 bar and about 600 °C) is in common use in large power plants since it can be expanded in steam turbines for power generation. It has gas-like properties such that – as an Oxygen carrier – it could even support combustion/oxidation processes. It has liquid like properties and can be used as a solvent.
It would seem that if water is contained in the interior of the earth's crust it could be at pressures above 22 MPa (220 bar) and temperatures above 374°C, beyond the critical point, and its properties as a very aggressive solvent could be controlling the behavior of magma. So perhaps plate tectonics is all down to water?
I am a little skeptical since I observe – in passing – that the behaviour of supercritical steam does not seem to dissolve away steam turbine blades or casings when used in power generation!

Microscopic structure of water at elevated pressures and temperatures by C. J. Sahle, C. Sternemann, C. Schmidt, S. Lehtola, S. Jahn, L. Simonelli, S. Huotari, M. Hakala, T. Pylkkanen, A. Nyrow, K. Mende, M. Tolan, K. Hamalainen and M. Wilke.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013; DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1220301110
From the press release from the Helmholtz Centre, Potsdam
13.03.2013 | Potsdam: Earth is the only known planet that holds water in massive quantities and in all three phase states. But the earthly, omnipresent compound water has very unusual properties that become particularly evident when subjected to high pressure and high temperatures. In the latest issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS), a German-Finnish-French team published what happens when water is subjected to pressure and temperature conditions such as those found in the deep Earth. At pressures above 22 MPa and temperatures above 374°C, beyond the critical point, water turns into a very aggressive solvent, a fact that is crucial for the physical chemistry of Earth's mantle and crust.
"Without water in Earth's interior there would be no material cycles and no tectonics. But how the water affects processes in the upper mantle and crust is still subject of intense research", said Dr. Max Wilke from the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, who carried out the experiments along with his colleague Dr. Christian Schmidt and a team from the TU Dortmund. To this end, the research team brought the water to the laboratory. First, the microscopic structure of water as a function of pressure and temperature was studied by means of X-ray Raman scattering. For that purpose, diamond anvil cells of the GFZ were used at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility ESRF in Grenoble. Inside the cell, a very small sample of water samples was enclosed, heated and brought to high temperatures and pressures. The data analysis was based on molecular dynamics simulations by the GFZ scientist Dr. Sandro Jahn.
"The study shows that the structure of water continuously develops from an ordered, polymerized structure to a disordered, marginally polymerized structure at supercritical conditions," explains Max Wilke. "The knowledge of these structural properties of water in the deep earth is an important basis for the understanding of chemical distribution processes during metamorphic and magmatic processes." This study provides an improved estimate of the behavior of water under extreme conditions during geochemical and geological processes. It is believed that the unique properties of supercritical water also control the behavior of magma.

OOh this is an easy one for me, I am definitely an optimist. I mean how much nicer is it to look for the positive and hope for the best bits of things? My glass is definitely half full, with smatterings of hope that soon it is going to be brimming. How dreadful it must be to have a half empty glass and not seeing any hope of getting it refilled. Come on! I believe most definitely in the law of attraction, what you think is what you attract so if you think negative things or fear something, then you increase the probability it is going to happen. Again there is no contest, I would rather be positive and attract the great things in life.
It all sounds easy and in reality it is. It is all about changing the way you think. Imagine getting up late and feeling angry, rushing around, slamming around and moaning just encourages everything around you to go wrong. Just by relaxing and believing everything will be ok, you will change your whole day. Try smiling and acknowledging all the good things that happens. I must admit I can be a bit laid back and tend to anticipate events. Take going to work by public transport. I always left in plenty of time but once on the train there is nothing you can do should a delay happen. I observed people getting stressed and shouting into mobile phones, pacing around looking out of windows, muttering to themselves and I just smiled. All out of my control, a short message to say I will be in asap, then I would sit back and relax. I do not want my day to remain as it could be if I was angry. If only everyone else could see that. I am a great people watcher and that was one great situation to watch the habits of people. I try to imagine what might happen when they get home.. 'kick the cat' syndrome? It all has a knock on effect.
Think then just what it would be like if we just took a deep breath and said 'ok, this is what has happened, can I change things? no!' so I will sit and relax, read my book or whatever. Often striking up a conversation with someone will make the time pass and hopefully make them feel less stressed about it all. I arrived to work relaxed, sometimes thankful, especially if I had a difficult class to teach, not quite the right attitude but hey! I'm not perfect – quite. But by being calm about things the rest of my day remains calm and those around me are also calmed. A bit like a ripple in a pool.
It reminds me of a quote, 'As man thinketh, so is he.' I never understood what it meant, there are many more but they all say the same thing. The person I am each day depends on my thoughts for that day. I know people who every time you ask them how are you they go into the 'poor me' speech. 'I'm knackered', ' I am tired', 'I have a headache,' and guess what? their day stays exactly the same, dull, tiring and a drag. Just by being positive and looking forward to the day makes it sunnier and easier to cope with whatever it throws at you.
I am definitely an optimist and see the good in everything. There is always a reason that has caused things to happen, we need to look at the wider picture. Those yobs on the street? they are just kids that have probably had a really negative start to life. Call a kid a lout and he/she will be. I remember being in another town on holiday with H, who was still working on being positive, and not being able to find somewhere. The only people around were a group of rough looking youngsters. I suggest going to ask them but H makes some comment on yobs etc. So I go to walk toward them and he stops me, bless him for being protective, but I ignored him and went up to the dozen or so lads and said ' excuse me guys, can you tell where….etc.' I was met with a group of young men that were all too happy to help, who smiled, were polite and pointed us in the right direction. I think H learned something that day. If he had taken his bad attitude to what he thought looked like to him a local yob gang, they would have reacted as he would have expected maybe…
Be positive, I say, look for the good or the reasoning, treat people as you would like to be treated and be happy. Look at the world with a smile, smiles are contagious and spread quickly, much better to get a smile back than a scowl and who knows, you might just make somebody else's day.

DENVER -- Plans to expand Interstate 70 east by the end of the decade are driving home real concerns for nearby residents.
Not only could dozens of families lose their homes, but many fear property values could plummet.
The expansion would affect the Globeville, Swansea and Elyria neighborhoods in Denver.
And if this proposal passes the neighborhoods would essentially be wiped off the map. Some residents are OK with the plan because it means a buyout, but many others say there has to be a better way.
"You know, hopefully we're all treated well and get what we need," says David Sanchez with Stop and Shop food store.
The store has been located in the shadow of I-70 for decades. Sanchez knows the state will help him relocate, but not everyone is sold on the idea.
"People are confused," says Elyria resident Drew Dutcher, who opposes the plan. "People are tired. People don't know what to think."
The plan means the loss of more than 65 homes and businesses. For Dutcher, it means I-70 will move to within 200 feet of his home.
"Sometimes the people whose houses that are taken are sometimes better off because they get compensated. It's who is left, and there is no compensation for them," Dutcher says.
Like Dutcher, Mark Wonder was just one of the dozens of residents at Swansea Elementary School Thursday night.
"In my opinion, I want them to go north. Will my house be taken? Absolutely," Wonder says.
Colorado Department of Transportation representatives were there, too.
"We did hear from the city," says CDOT's Kirk Webb. "For tax reasons and job reasons, they want us to shift north. We also heard from the community. In order to save the school, they'd like us to shift south."
Webb knows the plan isn't perfect, but says the aging nearby bridge must be replaced. He acknowledges that doing so means there is no happy medium.
Wonder agrees.
"Something has to happen before that highway (bridge) decides to come down," he says.
According to CDOT, the bridge only has 10 to 15 years of life left in its current condition.
By expanding it to the north, 90 homes and businesses are affected. Expanding it to the south reduces those affected to 65.

Finally the Euro Championship is over – The Swedish team did not deliver to good. I hoped for more but did not really expect anything. It is now time for players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Kim Källström and Andreas Isaksson to leave the national team and the process starts to build a new and younger team. It feels good to get a new start…
The results are now updated with June data:
It was a good month, although the low number of bets (486) the yield landed at 3.4% which gave me 6266 SEK into my account (about 661 Euro).
As I mentioned in last post I made some adjustments on the 12:th of may, and they seem to deliver.
The results, by bet type, with data from 12 of May to 10 of July looks like:
I am especially glad that backing Away and Under now is in profit – Something I have struggled with for a long time. I am still using a smaller bet size for those types, I will upsize the bets gradually over the nearest half year IF the good results lasts.

Alright, this might be the final post on Book 3 of Milly, and this will be a collection of random final thoughts. I don't think there's much more to add.
Will I do another book where another character is the point-of-view character? I'm not planning on it. Book 3 is currently going to be the only one. It will be Milly for the rest of the books. Now that's not to say I won't do it, but I'm not considering it at the moment.
Book 3 was interesting and fun to do. I don't think I did the perspective shift as well as I could have, but it was a cool experience. In my original plan, Milly wasn't in the book as much, but in the final version, she and Cornwilla had a decent amount of time together. I think it works better because it gave more to them compared to a few quick meetings.
As for what Milly was up to during that time, she mostly had an easier way getting through Murt. Not as much interesting stuff as compared to Cornwilla. That's the way of things, isn't it? The people not the point of view character tends to have easier times. And if they didn't, it will be told either through flashback or through the character retelling it. Since neither of those things happened, you can assume Milly was just walking along during the times she was not with Cornwilla.
I also enjoyed bringing Chrillo back into this. For a quick reminder, Chrillo is the guide for the Forest Province. I was actually planning something like this since the first book, the eternal nighttime plot, I mean. That's why I made Chrillo more sickly and weak, so he would be more affected by the lack of sunlight.
I tried to give Milly and Chrillo a good conclusion, even though Cornwilla has less reason to care. It might be a similar problem in the future if I want to bring Reting back but Milly is the point-of-view character again. Reting doesn't really know Milly at all.
Random info, out of all the guides so far (including the 4th book), my favorite guide is Nathootha (the guide from the Mountain Province). I enjoy writing Slivhl (the guide from the Swamp Province), too.
Thinking about the series as a whole, you might think there will be 7 books in the series. I went through two provinces in the first book, so there's six others I've been going through one book at a time. I think I want to have an 8th book though. What will be in that? Who knows. Who knows.

Pardon my absence, I've been totally consumed by the race.
Mary took off from Banff, AB last Friday & has been riding a strong, smart race ever since. She's in Lincoln, MT, as I type this. Having my spouse out there has been an adventure in itself, though incomparable to what I'm sure she's experiencing…
Oh- and before I forget: here's a new, very good SPOT leaderboard page to use. Thanks to Jeni T for that one. 🙂 The site leaderboard went a little crazy but this, along with the one on MTBcast is good. Jeni's allows you to look in by specific rider, so it's my favorite now.
So, about the bike:
Mary is riding a Song 29, named Frieda. She's purpose built for this job. Some racers are secretive about their gear selection but Mary told me it's ok to share. I'll tell you about the bike- if you want to know what's in the packs you'll have to ask Mary. 😉
Song 29 softail, easygoing bike, Cane Creek damper- make to take abuse.
Low bottom bracket, slack head angle for low CG & stability on fast gravel roads.
Large front triangle for *cargo room* (thanks to Jeff's handiwork at Carousel Design Works)
Full length cable housing to handle all weather conditions
3 h20 holders
3+ hand positions, including the custom "Fred Bar" we made to mount the Syntace XXS aero bars. The Fred bar also affords an shorter, upright position to ease the back muscles. Primary bar is an On One Mary bar. Bars are taped to be comfy in all temp ranges.
Rock Shox Reba SL 29″ fork- 80mm setting
No Tubes wheelset- American Classic hubs laced to 355 29″er rims
Kenda Small Block 8 tires- light & fast.
Salsa skewers
Wide gearing: 11/34 Shimano XTR titanium cassette
Middleburn 20T/29T/42T crank, steel middle ring for long wear. Self-extracting bolts
Phil Wood square taper bottom bracket- smooth & extremely durable
SRAM hollowpin chain
Shimano LX front derailleur- good tire clearance for the big wheels, shifts good
SRAM X0 Blackbox long cage derailleur- wow
SRAM X0 shifters- also wow… we soldered the ends of the cables so they can easily be pulled for lubrication
Avid Juicy Carbon brakes, 6″ rotors
Time ATAC Carbon XS pedals
and that's about all I can think of at the moment. Cool, eh?! 🙂

Nearly everyone needs some kind of online presence these days. Over its short lifetime, the Internet's already become an integral part of human existence. It is now almost impossible to imagine the world without it, yet one of its defining aspects goes nearly unnoticed. We all see websites – every day we browse through dozens, if not hundreds, of them, but what makes this possible? What is behind them?
The answer is the web hosting market and its key component – the datacentres. It is estimated that, currently, the global network consists of 260 000 000 sites. Of these, 60%, that's 156 000 000 sites, do not have a properly functioning website.
What's more, the number of websites is only expected to grow. In the next four years, we can expect to see another 26 000 000 sites. All of them must be hosted somewhere: on some hardware, on some software, in some location.
The web hosting market currently generates an annual income of 9 to 10 billion dollars worldwide, and is growing rapidly. For this reason, tech companies are investing billions of dollars in new and existing datacentres.
For example, let's consider the case of Ireland, probably the fastest growing market in Europe. In the next year, it's expected that investment in datacentres will exceed 2 billion dollars, including such era-defining companies as Google (150 million), Facebook (800 million), Microsoft (900 million), Apple (1 billion), and Amazon (1 billion).
Impressive numbers? Yet you need to remember two things: First, even combined, the big web hosting companies such as GoDaddy, BlueHost or OVH do not take up more than 15% of the web hosting market. They may be Internet Giants, but they are still drowning in a sea of medium and small businesses that are operating locally.
The other point – the true weak point of the web hosting industry – is that the investment primarily goes to the hardware vendors. It's true, investment in software is yet in its infancy.
Of course, the Internet Giants themselves are investing massively in their own software systems and user-friendly interfaces, but the majority of the market, the 85% we rarely hear about, do not spend a single cent on software. They may currently be content with hardware vending, yet, in spite of all the investments by Google, Microsoft, Apple and all the other major players, this could soon change.
They all need software that anyone, regardless of their level of proficiency, can simply pick up and use with a minimum of background knowledge. Of course, they have the free C-Panel that is almost standard nowadays, but it needs extensive technical knowledge in order to be workable.
This is what we want to change with our Jaaz Portal technology. This is software that will automate every stage of the web hosting business – from the creation, through to the management of the site, to the billing process. Everything in a single, unified, web interface that's so simple and convenient the average blogger or user of social networks can operate it with a minimum of instruction.
Unlike other players, we do not want to develop this system for only our customers, for only our personal use. No. We want to share it with others. Any of these myriad of small and medium businesses looking to embrace the future of web hosting will be able to download and deploy it.
The software will be licensed in three versions: Personal, Community and Business Editions accompanied by the Free Edition available as Open Source.
We consider that our revolutionary product will quickly capture the imagination of these small and medium web hosting businesses and their customers. We believe we can open them up to the mass market, so far reserved only for the Internet Giants.
I'd just like to leave you with one more thing to think about. Increasing numbers of non-technical ventures, such as traditional media outlets, are looking towards web services and, in particular, the web hosting market. They are losing their readers and advertisement base and now are looking to explore fresh markets and new horizons.
One such example is the Washington Post, which has recently launched a web hosting initiative. We believe that this media outlet is merely the forerunner of a game-changing new trend, and more and more newspapers will become interested in this lucrative market. Of course, they can develop their own web interfaces and systems, but they can also license Jaaz Portal...

I'm not in the mood for words. So, today, I leave you with a few pictures from yesterday's craft show.
Just a little note about these hand-painted pencils… I adore them. They almost sold out yesterday at the Shigh Ead Craft show. I made the pencil holder (display unit) in the pic above by upcycling a Pringles can.
And finally a general view of the table. You can see some of the new items I have been working on: Fridge magnets/towel holders, notepads, "My Inspiration" notebooks & journals, in addition to jewelry (rings, bracelets, and earrings) and jewelry trees..
That's it for now, Take care,

I'm on a mission to start a Key Stage 3 writers' club this year. My intention is to run it on a weekly basis during a lunch hour.
I used to love creative writing at school and I just don't feel we do enough of it with our students now. I don't want to be levelling their writing all the time; I want them to love the idea of crafting a piece of writing for its own sake.
A plea on twitter via #ukedchat has pointed me in the direction of the NaNoWriMo website http://www.nanowrimo.org/ and also suggested half termly themes or tailoring it around available writing competitions.
Much food for thought already, but I would welcome any more suggestions!
29/8/11: I've done some digging and found the following website with lots of writing competitions http://www.prizemagic.co.uk/html/writing_comps.htm Not all of them will be appropriate but they might give us a focus to start.

Chelsea host Swansea City at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening, with Antonio Conte's men looking to keep the pace on league leaders Manchester City.
City are strong favourites to inherit Chelsea's Premier League crown in May, but there is still a long way to go and there is no doubt Conte will be fighting for the title until winning it is a mathematical impossibility.
That is not the case now, and next up for us is the Swans, who currently sit in place in 19th place the Premier League table. Paul Clement's side have lost four of their last five in the league.
On paper this provides a great opportunity for us to pick up an important three points, but as we all know, nothing is that straightforward in this division.
Physio Room report that all of the 13 who featured against Liverpool at the weekend are available for selection. Here's how we expect Conte will lineup for the game.

Guest Review: Nu-Way Lounge, A Classic Dive Bar Burger in Spartanburg, SC
Southern lifestyle magazine Garden & Gun recently published a paean to a quintessential dive bar: Our Kind of Place: Nu-Way Lounge & Restaurant
I said to Becky, the owner who worked the grill on this particular day, "I want a Redneck burger, and I need a plain burger with nothing on it for my dog."
She said, "Your dog's outside?" I nodded. She said, "You got a leash? You can bring him in."
I said, "Yeah, I do. How nice," and got Dooley out of the Jeep.
I don't want to get all existential and dog-whispering about this, but when I brought Dooley in I pretty much felt him saying, "Wow! Thanks. Can we play that bowling game?" (George Singleton, Garden & Gun, Aug/Sep 2014)
This place sounded too good to miss. Luckily Spartanburg designer and artist Jane Beckler Bird is an old friend and a fan of classic cheeseburgers. She quickly was sworn in as Adjunct Burgiatrist and guest reviewer. Here's what she had to say.
"Despite being a resident of Spartanburg, South Carolina, for a decade I had visited only two of the three known "burger dives" in this town – The Beacon and Ike's Korner Grille. At last, I made it to Nu-Way Restaurant and Lounge, a renowned player in this heavenly trifecta. The White Trash Burger did not disappoint…
Nu-Way is truly a burger dive with no frills – just a row of barstools, a handful of tables and a fully stocked bar (complete with the usuals as well as local craft beer). Friendly staff, who seem to know everyone in the place, are eager to please. Clever menu items make selection tough (they all sound great) with Redneck Cheeseburger, Trailer Park Burger and such, but I settled upon a favorite there: The White Trash Cheeseburger.
The White Trash features a sizeable angus patty grilled to taste and includes American cheese, pickles, onions, jalapeno chiles, slaw, mustard and whatever else you wish added for that matter. It's served on a classic sesame seed bun that perfectly soaks in all the ingredients' deliciousness. Yeah… a good ol' messy burger you only eat around those you really love! Paired with some crispy shoestring fries, this burger really hit the spot. It was so filling I elected to take half home for later, and trust me, this is one burger that does leftover very well. It was even amazing the next day!
I am not a well versed foodie or writer of reviews, but I do know a great burger when I find one. Nu-Way's White Trash Cheeseburger is a must if you're in downtown Spartanburg. It has close rivalry, but that's for another writeup another time. Enjoy!" Jane Beckler Bird
