|Top Online Data Backup Rankings
TORONTO, ON – September 17, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — Data Deposit Box Inc. (cse:DDB) (otcqb:DDBXF) (2DD) ("Data Deposit Box" or the "Company"), a global provider of cloud backup and recovery technology, is pleased to announce a new partnership with Australia-based cloud backup solutions company Probax.
Data Deposit Box has expanded its international presence by partnering with Probax to provide cloud backup and recovery services in Australia. Probax will use the Data Deposit Box platform to provide secure and reliable cloud-based backup and recovery services for its Australian client base.
"Data Deposit Box continues to strike strategic partnerships globally which is key to our expansion strategy. Probax is a key partner for Data Deposit Box in our goal to become the premier backup and recovery provider for small to medium-sized businesses. We are very excited to commence our new partnership with Probax in order to service and build on our Australian and Asia Pacific client base." said Tim Jewell, CEO of the Company and founder of the Data Deposit Box business.
Kevin Allan, Managing Director of Probax., said, "Currently our biggest backup markets are in the replication of StorageCraft ShadowProtect and Veeam backup images, but we expect Data Deposit Box to fit a segment that is growing in demand. Data Deposit Box supports not only physical and virtual, but also mobile environments. Our testing has also shown that Data Deposit Box works very well on low bandwidth end user connections – something that Australia has struggled with for a long time."
"Partnering with market-leading and high-quality backup software vendors such as Data Deposit Box allows us to offer our Partners the latest in backup innovation without re-creating the wheel; giving our Partners the ability to offer their clients the best backup solution for them," comments Mr. Allan.
Based out of Melbourne Australia, Probax has serviced the region for over 10 years and is aggressively growing its client base through its partners.
Data Deposit Box continues to add cloud accounts daily through its partners (within the region and globally) and will continue to pursue the MSP channel to drive the Company's success moving forward. The Company will also begin to offer its "Smart Storage" product line to all partners in Q4 2015.

Prior to her work on the Collectors, Dr. Cole worked in physics. It was a "researcher's paradise" according to her, and she had access to cutting-edge technology. Her work on Collectors involved dissecting Reaper-to-Collector communication, and she started working on a practical human implant. However, she found out that her colleagues who had finished constructing their share of the project were disappearing without a trace.
It didn't take her long to figure out the Illusive Man's shenanigans. Since Brynn was high up in Cerberus's hierarchy, she used her relative freedom to begin planning for escape. On receiving word that four of their number are now missing, Brynn and her remaining colleagues cut ties with Cerberus and fled.
Jacob Taylor and Brynn met through a mutual friend in Cerberus's Mumbai cell a year prior to Brynn's defection. If Jacob lived through Shepard's suicide mission, fate crosses their paths once more. Brynn goes to Jacob for help and protection, and Jacob does not refuse. Eventually, they enter into a relationship, helping dozens of scientists and their families flee the organization.
Brynn's group takes refuge in a Cerberus base on Gellix, thinking that they covered their tracks well, but the Illusive Man is "one tenacious bastard". He sends troops to recapture the deserters, dealing enough damage to cripple their escape plans. If Commander Shepard manages to rescue her and the scientists, she will join the Crucible Project, using the knowledge gained during her employment with Cerberus to help build the weapon.
If Jacob didn't survive the suicide mission, though, Dr. Cole will be less trusting of Shepard, but warms up to the Commander after the latter dispatches more troops.
Later, she sends Shepard an e-mail entitled "Crucible Update":Citadel in Huerta Memorial Hospital, Jacob reveals that Brynn is carrying their child. She wishes to name the child after Commander Shepard, though Jacob plans to convince her otherwise. An intercepted correspondence from Liara's Broker Terminal also reveals the depth of affection between them.
Brynn and Jacob may be seen together later if Shepard activates the Crucible, consoling a young woman amid the devastated surroundings.

Tonight's episode of MTV's I'm Happy to Be Fat
Mike got his chubby chasers club going, but hasn't met anyone special yet. I thought he was a pretty neat guy, and will find someone in time. His nude calendar was pretty cool too, and the fact that he had the confidence to do that is awesome (I liked his comment that he didn't show "the jewels").
The only complaint I have was the way Sharonda was treated by her family, friends, and doctor. All of them have the idea that fat is deadly and automatically leads to diabetes and high blood pressure. Sharonda said she had more confidence at her current weight, and didn't really want to go back to being thinner. But she caved after seeing the doctor (the doctor said that overweight people are 10 times more likely to get TEH DIABETES AND DIE FROM IT, give me a break)and having her friend tell her that she doesn't want to see Sharonda die from something that could be prevented if she would just lose some weight. So now Sharonda is eating less and working out 5 days a week. She wants to lose 70 lbs by summer (she's currently at 320, and wants to get down to 250). I don't see anything wrong with working out if that makes you feel good and it's what you want to do. But to be pushed into it because OMG YOU HAVE TEH FAT AND IT'S GOING TO KILL YOU DEAD DEAD DEAD is just a crock of shit, IMO. And her friend who said Sharonda chose to be fat, so of course she's not going to be able to find cute clothes needs a swift kick in the ass. She spouted the same old cliche of eating 5 cheeseburgers at a time. Give me a break, you're using hyperbole there, and so what if someone does eat like that? Does that mean they have to stay in the house naked? Or wear tacky sackcloth and ashes to show how bad they are for being fat and not meeting YOUR expectations? I don't think so. With friends like you, darlin', Sharonda don't need no fucking enemies.
I wonder if MTV did the Sharonda section just to get in the expected TEH FATZ IS BAD rant to counter the fact that people can be fat, fit, and happy. If so, it ain't workin' with this fat woman. I know better, I don't buy into propaganda and hysteria anymore. There are other fat people out there who aren't buying it anymore either.

Of course the Sharonda segment was a big disclaimer - see, we don't *really* support fat acceptance, because we all know fat is death. I'm waiting for Oxygen to force some kind of disclaimer like this on "How to Look Good Naked." The NYT article had to include the obligatory "Well, we still know fat is bad and unhealthy and even though we shouldn't blame people, we blame people." They can't ever put out a fat positive message without covering themselves against the worldwide war against obesity.ReplyDelete
I didn't see the show, but I feel bad for Sharonda. What great asshole friends and family to set her up for a huge fucking failure and disappointment. They're the sick ones.

Broke Chicago Schools Sack 356 Teachers
The teachers and other employees received their pink slips from the taxpayer-funded school district on Monday, reports the Chicago Sun-Times.
Chicago's elementary schools will have 240 fewer teachers this fall. Second City high schools will have 116 fewer teachers.
In addition to the 356 teachers, Chicago Public School officials also sacked 362 classroom aides and 221 employees who were security guards and special education aides.
Chicago Teachers Union spokeswoman Stacy Davis Gates blamed an ongoing budget battle between Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner in particular for the layoffs.
6 comments:
They spend about $19,000 per student per year

I can't imagine working in a southside school in that town. How do they even get teachers to go to those areas?
- August 11, 2017 at 7:40 AM
Atta boy Rahm. I watched the interview with the former Chicago Police Superintendent who Rahm fired. Chicago is going down the tubes and there is nothing they can do to stop it. Millionaires are leaving in droves. Sanctuary city? You can have it.
- August 11, 2017 at 7:41 AM
And this is what happens when liberals are in charge for to long. I see the same thing happening in Salisbury, less jobs higher taxes more welfare, gangs,we all see it.
- August 11, 2017 at 8:04 AM
State of Illinois should be held as the prime poster child for the failure of social democracy!! thank you Democratic Party!! you proven your ideals are a failure!!
- August 11, 2017 at 8:28 AM
Like everything the Democrats control. They bankrupt their cities and their states. So you should expect them to bankrupt their educational system too.

We study CBC authentication of real time applications in which the length of the message is not known until the message ends, and furthermore, since the application is real-time, it is not possible to start processing the authentication only after the message ends.
We first present a variant of CBC MAC, called {\em double MAC} (DMAC) which handles messages of variable unknown lengths. Computing DMAC on a message is virtually as simple and as efficient as computing the standard CBC MAC on the message. We provide a rigorous proof that its security is implied by the security of the underlying block cipher. Next, we argue that the basic CBC MAC is secure when applied to prefix free message space. A message space can be made prefix free by authenticating also the (usually hidden) last character which marks the end of the message.

2006-09-10 [Kaimee]: Also, is this a short story contest or a novel contest?
Rule 4. Prologues are ONLY necessary to make it easier for voting at the end, does that mean it's a novel contest but you only want the prologue? :S
What's the minimum/maximu
2006-09-10 [iippo]: Ah, it was the "the sci-fi world" that was the "specific world"... I never read so much into a sentence. :P
And http://en.wiki
2006-09-10 [Kaimee]: Yeah, I just wanted to know what Darkside was accepting as "scifi", as I've written spec.fic and had it both accepted and rejected from different scifi contests before, I didn't want to waste time writing something that wouldn't be accepted ;)
2006-09-11 [Amanda Bastian]: *sighs and bangs head on the wall* I wish I was better at making contests *sighs again*...now i'm confused....
2006-09-11 [iippo]: Ahw *hugs* Don't worry about it.
Well Darkside, do you want to set a limit on how long or short the entries have to be?
And do you agree with http://en.wiki
2006-09-11 [Amanda Bastian]: Thanks. ^_^ *hugs back* Yes, I do because that way it's easier for judges to read them and judge them quickly. that's why I said "prologues only". Yes, i agree with that. ^_^ I was also thinking as star wars type sci-fi and a stargate atlantis/ stargate sg-1 type sci-fi.
2006-10-13 [Amanda Bastian]: Oh, Wow! That's fantastic, Bleu! Awesome work!
2006-10-22 [blu.nation]: ^^ Thanks. I wrote it a while ago, but i'm still rather proud of it.
2006-10-22 [Amanda Bastian]: You're welcome! ^_^ That's good
2007-01-04 [Linderel]: Hello, will you be extending the deadline? The currently set one was about a month ago, so I was just wondering what you will be doing with the contest next.
2007-01-04 [Amanda Bastian]: Actually, it doesn't end until december 2007 seven. Contestants have another year yet
2007-01-04 [Linderel]: Ah. You hadn't specified the year on the Writing Contests page, that confused me. ...or then I'm blind. My bad. Shouldn't work when tired, clearly. :) I'll just take that back, then. xD
Good luck with the contest. Might even consider participating myself, depending on my muse...
2007-01-04 [Amanda Bastian]: No worries. ^_^ I actually just checked it myself when I went to the wiki page. lol. Thank you ^_^
2008-03-08 [Wednesday]: When will judging be done?
2008-03-15 [Amanda Bastian]: I need help getting judges. I haven't had the time recently to find any until now
2009-04-25 [Linderel]: Anything happening here?
2009-04-26 [Amanda Bastian]: no, not really. I can't find any other judges willing to help me outbecause I don't have the time to read all of them T.T
2009-04-26 [Linderel]: Well, in that case I can volunteer for the job.
2009-04-26 [Amanda Bastian]: thanks so much! ^_^
2009-07-28 [Linderel]: Hello? *poke* When will we be handling this and the other contest?
2009-07-28 [Amanda Bastian]: now actually lol

Vintage & Pattern Links
This appropriately named curio shop specializes in Euro-style decorative arts from the '30s to the '70s. Expect a fair amount of quirk and kitsch, like the 1930s pressed-leather luggage, red fondue pot, Bakelite bracelets, and bocce balls that vie for attention with other oddities in the store's bay window. There are also some truly lovely finds among the inventory of art, vintage togs, jewellery and retro technology. Candy-coloured typewriters ($60–$400) are a big draw. Other picks include a glam 1960s Venini glass chandelier ($1,850), a selection of original artwork and amber Lucite earrings ($20).
Heavens To Betsy Vintage
Heavens To Betsy Vintage sells a full range of vintage, retro and out-of-print sewing patterns from 1930's to 1980's and select newer patterns. We also offer vintage jewelry, vintage handkerchiefs, children's books, fashion related ephemera and an eclectic variety of collectible smaller items. We have over 8,000 items listed online with over 6,000 sewing patterns. All of our sewing pattern pieces are counted and guaranteed complete. All vintage patterns are stored in acid-free polypropylene sleeve protectors and cardboard backings in a temperature controlled environment.
Patterns From The Past
The Company has been in business since 1996, with numerous satisfied customers to attest to their excellent service. The web page is very simply yet effectively organized for their extensive collection of products.
Rusty Zipper
A team of 11 people in a 5,500 sq foot wharehouse full of amazing vintage from the 1940's through 1980;s, all of which is available to view and order online on their site which is entering its 15th year online. Located outside the rural farm town of Scott Mills, Oregon, USA (population 300) they are a courteous and caring group who have made an extra effort to be green:
"Each year, we process over 40,000 pounds of previously worn, vintage clothing - meaning the clothes you are buying are reducing the need for new manfacturing.
All of the electricity we use is purchased through Portland General's clean wind energy program. We use high efficiency low water usage appliances in our laundering process, and even offset the energy used by computers visiting our site by purchasing renewable energy certificates from third-party wind and solar farms through co2stats.com.
Our 6 acre facility hosts a 4 acre untouched wilderness area with a spring-fed pond that supports local wildlife including deer, elk, bobcat, cougar, and even bear"
Stardust - The Online Vintage Boutique
Stardust was first launched in 2005 before which, vintage accessories was a hobby of ours which spiralled into a business. We began by selling vintage jewellery and Designer Hand-Crafted items at Camden and Spitalfields Markets. From jewellery we began to expand our interest to bags then to scarves and before we knew it, just about every type of accessory you can think of.
Since Stardust has been up and running we have not stopped adding to the list. We have been shocked at the demand for vintage aprons and pride ourselves in our huge selection. Our latest additions are mens vintage accessories and tobacciana.
Vintage Martini
Hosted by two gentlemen, both online and through several vintage shows and fairs, the Vintage Martini is complete with everything from Clothing, Patterns, Hats, Transfers, Ladies Accessories, Ephemera, Barware and Photographs.

Photo-A-Day #4227
I have started reviewing the Marvel Gear and Goods Box from Loot Crate! They sent me the first box with the theme of Mystics for free to unbox and review. This is a very cool box of fun things for Marvel fans.
The Marvel Gear + Goods (Affiliate Link) is awesome. There are a bunch of great items in the box. Inside the box you find some wearable gear, a special print, a pin, and some gear for entertaining. Also, the box is reversible and both sides are awesome. The inside ties in with Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the current storyline with Ghost Rider.

text: Written by Paul Jessup, produced by becker&mayer!, and published by Chronicle Books; I was brought on to flesh out a young girl's artistic journal after she and her brother Mark survive an attack by what they first guess is a pack of wild dogs. More of a found treasure then a horror story or graphic novel, this book takes a look at werewolves from a uniquely realistic perspective. The art reflecting the sometimes disjointed and often thoughtful musings of Alice Carr, as she jots and sketches her unique experiences down.

Young & Beautiful (Jeune Et Jolie) (2014)
Critic Consensus: Ozon may not explore his themes as fully as he should, but Young & Beautiful poses enough intriguing questions -- and features a strong enough performance from Marine Vacth -- to compensate for its frustrations.

Critic Reviews for Young & Beautiful (Jeune Et Jolie)
All Critics (82) | Top Critics (37) | Fresh (60) | Rotten (22)
It became clear, as the movie wore on, that Ozon isn't interested in explanations, psychological insights, lessons, judgments, diagnoses, or any of the other stuff that normally preoccupies storytellers.
Prostitution in polite society is still a nettle fearfully grasped. You see, society is not polite and it's about time movies stopped peddling that fluff.
Never amounts to anything more than its title's shallow descriptors.
Ozon keeps things simmering without quite boiling over, even when convention might demand it.
Trying to figure out Isabelle keeps the viewer engaged, and Vacth's focused acting justifies her being almost continually in the frame.

Marine Vacht gives shape to an enigmatic character that remains fascinating during the whole time even if we don't understand what drives her to act and behave the way she does - which makes for engaging viewing despite the fact that she never opens up to us.
Super Reviewer
Unusually straightforward film from Ozon, but a gripping one with a nicely underplayed central performance.
Super Reviewer
Ozon has produced another masterpiece. Although deeply troubling in its storyline, the characters leap off the screen and make a deep connection with you. It's challenging but worth taking in.

It seems that we lost Say So, not sure no one responded about my question. Weeks ago now it was discussed that we would get Cint after getting SSI. Why did that not happen, we keep losing and do not get any replacements. Losing Global, all 3 of the Say So do not work. All earnings are way down, except you can tell people are shopping and getting credit for that. SR has advantages that others sites do not have, but without
surveys to take, it discourages me anyway. We have 3 GF but here the reward has dropped, and they are still very long for that. We need more surveys, I know there are plenty out there that we do not have. Let start with Cint which are unlimited, I do not understand Sayso it still active on other site, I have friends that do them, I know you do not want me to mention name of the site.

Here is the perfect Facebook post [INFOGRAPHIC]
Creating purposeful and effective marketing messages is both art and science, and anyone who's worked with it professionally knows it's not an easy task.
The part that is art demands a gut feeling for what works and is something that can be learned over time by gaining experience.
The part that is science on the other hand can by its nature be formalised. This is precisely what Salesforce did last year on the topic of Facebook posts, and the recommendations are still relevant.
Although knowing only how to engineer a good update won't be sufficient for creating business value, it definitely helps. By having some tried and true guidelines to follow when composing your message, you can focus your efforts on nailing the art of it.
Hope this blueprint can be of value, and don't hesitate to share it if you find it useful!

It is believed that expanding access to treatment will help marginalized people both recover from addiction and develop the skills, resources and zeal to participate more fully in community life.
There are many paths to recovery from addiction. Some drug dependent people stop using on their own, others use religious activities or self-help groups. Others require treatment in one of the four general modalities described below. Treatment can include behavioral approaches, medications or, in many cases, both.
Outpatient Drug-Free Programs provide individual, group and family counseling. Patients served are typically dependent on cocaine and/or alcohol. Programs employ a wide variety of counseling styles. They appropriately use medication combined with behavioral therapies to maximize therapeutic response. These medication-based therapies include psychiatric treatment and outpatient detoxification.
Opioid Agonist Programs treat people dependent on heroin. They provide counseling and either methadone or Levo-Alpha Acetyl Methadol (LAAM), two medications that block the withdrawal, craving and euphoric effects of heroin.
Inpatient Rehabilitation Programs are designed for people dependent on alcohol or drugs. They may last several days to weeks and often use counseling techniques based on self-help programs. Medical and psychiatric screening may be available. Discharged patients are usually referred to outpatient programs and self-help groups.
Therapeutic Communities are long-term residential treatments for people who are unable to discontinue drug use through other treatments. Lasting six months or longer, they offer a highly structured program, which uses behavior modification and assigns increasingly responsible tasks to resocialize residents.
Drug addiction treatment is as effective as treatment for other chronic disorders. For example, a recent study demonstrated a reduction in alcohol and drug use (52% and 69%, respectively) one year after treatment. Another study showed a 64% reduction in arrests one year after treatment. Further, drug treatment prevents the spread of HIV. Patients enrolled in methadone maintenance were five times less likely to contract HIV than drug injecting people not in treatment.

Hello, I'm Stanko, a software engineer in Belgrade, writing mostly about JavaScript and React.
Few days ago, I was chatting with our design team, and we were wondering how hard would be to create a fake audio spectrum (that mimics human speech) and visualize it. I immediately said it should be easy, and that I will play with it over the weekend. Of course, I didn't wait for the weekend, but wrote it the same evening. It was fairly straightforward, but it had few gotchas.
Before you start playing with the checkboxes I advise you to read the rest of this post.
I want to brag a little - my npm packages have been downloaded more than Stats are coming from npm-stat.com. this year!
And I finally got a real domain:
I've been quiet for the last couple of months. Mostly because I was busy with other things, both work and personal. But I do have a few small side projects I will be sharing soon.
Stay tuned!
I love my . I have a huge draft about Switch, and how it have put the fun back in gaming for me. It takes me forever to publish it. Unfortunately, tonight I noticed that one of my Joy-Cons has weird lumps on it.
(This is the image from the internet, not mine.)
On multiple forum threads, people suggested using hair dryer to fix it. But nobody did explain how. I tried it, and in couple of minutes I managed to get it, and here is how I did it.
There are tiny inserts in the cap, and they need to go in to the tiny holes on the joystick. I had three of them fall out. To fix it, just heat it with the hair dryer (I did it for about ten seconds), carefully adjust one insert and rub it a little bit until it falls in. Repeat for each insert.
It was much easier than I thought it would be (before heating it felt impossible). Hopefully they won't fall again, but I will probably get thumb grips to be sure.
This is something I keep rediscovering, because I keep forgetting it.
JSON.stringify will omit all object attributes that are
In most cases, it doesn't really matter, because if we parse that string back, and try to access that attribute - it will be
undefined by design. Check the example below:
const user = { name: 'Stanko', phone: undefined };
user.phone; // -> undefined
const stringifiedUser = JSON.stringify(user); // -> "{\"name\":\"Stanko\"}"
const parsedUser = JSON.parse(stringifiedUser) // -> { name: "Stanko" }
// At the end it behaves the same
parsedUser.phone; // -> undefined
I want to share a hack (or a trick if you prefer) my colleague Marko showed me today.
What is the problem? We want our flex items to be equally distanced between each other and from the parent's edge. Unforunately I wasn't aware of this property, thanks Marc for mentioning it in the comment below! is not supported in IE and Edge. And
space-around or
space-between won't work.
You can see what we are trying to achieve in the first row, and how the latter two are behaving.

You hear about troublesome babies who are born with a magical ability to cry non-stop for months on end, but you don't hear very often about a newborn who can supposedly walk like an adult, "cackle" like a fiend, and "produce fire." And thank goodness we don't, because talk about losing sleep! But one mother claims that her month-old baby boy is possessed by a "malignant spirit" and can do all of these things -- and he even has "intimidating eyes" to boot!
One thing you'd probably try to do if you gave birth to a "devil baby" is keep it on the down low. But word must have got around, because reportedly neighbors pelt the newborn's home with stones every night. The baby's parents, Ana Feria Santos and Oscar Pelencia Lopez of Lorica, Colombia, claim the baby has "several abnormalities" and think the boy is the devil incarnate.
Ana, who is the mother of five children, reportedly told a local radio station:
He walks like an adult, sometimes going off and hiding underneath the bed, in a suitcase, in the washing machine, or in the fridge.
Er, I don't mean to be a disbeliever or anything, but could this mom have simply lost her marbles from so many kids?
Local authorities were called in to investigate and reportedly found burn marks on the baby's clothes and the sofa where he sits. (Yeah, he sits. Even though he's a month old! Wonder if he smokes a cigar while he catches the game on TV?) Some small burns were also found on the baby's hands. Which could mean the baby produces fire -- or it could mean the baby is being abused! It's the second theory that authorities are looking into, and one source says the child does show signs of abuse.
This would certainly pretty sick if the parents were burning the baby and then claiming it could produce fire -- maybe for attention. But ... what if it could produce fire? Who the heck would believe you?!
At any rate, it's best to be safe and assume that a newborn cannot walk, cackle, and throw around fire, and that the parents have some issues! Presumably if the kid CAN do all that, someone will catch it on video eventually.
Certainly, babies do some odd things. Some even hold their breath in a fit of pique until they pass out. But a fire making baby takes things to a whole new level.
Reportedly, the parents have received a "warning" while the case is being looked into, which unfortunately sounds like he wasn't taken away from the family.
Do you think a baby can be possessed?

At the end of a long day, I love to sit quietly, sip a glass of wine, and contemplate life. Tonight, I'm relaxing in the Winter Dreaming Tree, the January group gift from [dirty.little.secret]. The gift includes this ginormous tree, fluffy white grass, and swing with animations (the tree is actually a bit whiter than it appears here at sunset). The [dirty.little.secret] group is 150L to join, but they are so generous with group gifts.
This snuggly outfit is the Frozen Treats Hunt gift from Vips Corner (#5). Included are the leggings, UGGs boots, and fuzzy, pink sweater. There is also a men's gift in the box (not pink, don't worry). The Frozen Treats Hunt ends on January 15th, and all items are 1L each.
My necklace and earrings are by Ben's Beauty, and are available for 55L this week at fi*Fridays. It includes a menu selection of 7 different stones. My cute ponytail hair is by >TRUTH<, and is a TRUTH District group gift (only available at this location). The gift includes a fatpack of colors, color-changing headband, and your choice of colors for streaks… or no streaks at all, if you prefer. This gift has been out for quite a while, and I was so happy to see that it's still available!
Yawn… maybe I'll just take a nap. 🙂

These classic buffalo wings pair perfectly with a creamy homemade blue cheese dip. Slideshow: More Chicken Wing Recipes
How to Make It
In a bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, and lemon juice. Add in the milk, one tablespoon at a time until reaching desired consistency. Stir in the blue cheese and season with salt and pepper. Cover and let sit in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Heat a saucepan over medium heat. Melt the butter and stir in the garlic. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the garlic is lightly browned.
Stir in the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer the sauce for about 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Set aside.
Rinse the chicken wings and pat them dry. Generously season the chicken with salt and black pepper. Dredge the wings in flour, shaking off any excess flour, and set aside.
In a large saucepan or deep fryer, heat the oil to about 375°. Fry the chicken wings in small batches until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Shake off any excess oil and place on paper towels to drain. Continue frying the chicken in batches until all of the wings are cooked. Serve warm with blue cheese dip.

Getting rapid results with SOA application integration
This Lustratus Report discusses a way to get quick value from SOA – message-driven SOA. The idea is to avoid getting tangled up in the complexities of process re-engineering and business transformation, and instead focus on 'quick-hit' business successes through the use of SOA for business integration. The message-driven part refers to the use of a message-based, loosely coupled flow approach which provides a high degree of flexibility that is non-invasive.
The paper looks at the drivers for message-driven SOA, the functionalities required from an SOA infrastructure to deliver it and where it is most applicable.

Do You Suffer With Sciatica or Back Pain? The Most Cost Effective Treatment is Physical Therapy
Suffering with sciatica or back pain can make life very difficult at times. Over 80% of people will suffer an episode of back pain at some point in their lifetime. Many experience chronic back or radiating leg pain that interferes with their ability to enjoy life fully. Do you find yourself watching how you bend down, stand up, or lift objects, because of potential pain? It's time to have a physical therapist examine your back. A study in the medical journal SPINE shows that referrals by doctors to physical therapy early for the treatment of back pain, significantly improved results
and lowered costs. In the study, patients SAVED on average $2736.36 for their low back pain treatment, by having physical therapy treatment first. If you are suffering with back pain or sciatica, ask your doctor to send you to our expert physical therapists first, or give us a call to learn more how we can help you. Fast, complete, and low cost results are what you deserve. Primary Care Referral of Patients With Low Back Pain to Physical Therapy: Impact on Future Health Care Utilization and Costs Fritz, Julie M.

Just hours ago, I shipped ANTIQUES SWAP off to our editor at Kensington. I say "shipped" out of habit – these days, there's no rush to make it to a Fed-Ex drop to actually post packages. How many times did Barb and I work all day on final corrections, hoping to make it to the P.O., Fed Ex or UPS on time?
Hitting "send" is somehow not as satisfying as handing a clerk a package or shoving that package into the Fed Ex box. But I would never go back.
Barb and I spent a long day doing the final tweaks and corrections. Our standard operating procedure is that I read and revise a hard copy, using a red pen so that the corrections jump out, and she enters them. This is not just for "Barbara Allan" books, but everything of mine that's book length.
I'm always afraid that, on the read-through, a novel isn't going to hang together – as I go, I focus on one chapter at a time, as if I were doing a short story, and I rarely have a sense of how (or not) those chapters are coming together to make a book. Almost always I am pleasantly surprised, sometimes damn near thrilled, by how those chapters turn into something coherent and cohesive. That last read-through, for tweaks and typos, plays a key role, but it's always nice to know that you've written a novel and not just a bunch of scenes.
ANTIQUES SWAP came out very well indeed. But you never know, and we both had our doubts along the way. The story starts at a swap meet and eventually deals with wife-swapping in small-town Serenity. This is delicate, even daring subject matter for a cozy, but I think we walked the tight rope successfully. There's a scene Barb came up with where a concussed Vivian Borne thinks she's on a USO Tour with Bob and Bing that is among our funniest.
Last week a number of you jumped on my offer of sending out signed copies of KING OF THE WEEDS for Amazon reviews. I offered 12 copies, but wound up digging into my personal stash for another five. Thanks to all of you who requested books, and my apologies to those who missed out this time. In a few weeks, there will be a similar giveaway with a dozen ARC's of SUPREME JUSTICE. For those who haven't noticed, these Updates go up every Tuesday at 9 a.m. Central Time.
In the next two months, we should be posting any number of interviews and reviews. This is one of those times when all my publishing worlds collide – ANTIQUES CON, KING OF THE WEEDS and SUPREME JUSTICE are all out at the same time. I've already done an interview for Jon Jordan at Crimespree (see below), and soon I'll be offering a link to a very long, in-depth one for J. Kingston Pierce of the Rap Sheet and Kirkus on-line.
In the last year of his life, Bobby Darin did an NBC series called THE BOBBY DARIN SHOW. If you've been following my work for a while, chances are you know that I am the world's biggest Bobby Darin fan. How can I make such a claim? Let's start with: I own his Gold Record for "Mack the Knife." Next!
Anyway, Darin's series is in many respects a typical early '70s variety show, which is to say a weird hybrid of what was "happening," baby, and wheezy traditions that dated to vaudeville. Darin is very good at doing sketches and production numbers, and is naturally funny, too. But those '70s variety shows, with the partial exception of Carol Burnett, were really pretty terrible. And the reason to celebrate the release of THE BOBBY DARIN SHOW on DVD is chiefly the moments, two or three times a show, when Darin stands on stage in a tux and sings standards and current pop hits in his sophisticated, hip nightclub manner.
Also, every episode (there are thirteen) finds Darin singing to (and with) that week's female musical guest star. Usually the two perch on stools as he gazes at her with open admiration, in a kind of seduction ending with Darin kissing the female guest tenderly (in near silhouette). What's most fascinating here is how Darin modulates his performances according to the talents of his partner. Connie Stevens is shockingly weak, and Darin carries her, singing softly and gently. Much the same is true with Nancy Sinatra – but she is much better with him, with his help, than in her embarrassing solo performance of a lame "Boots are Made For Walkin'" follow-up flop.
But when Darin sings with Dusty Springfield – the greatest blue-eyed female soul singer of her generation – they stand facing each other, going toe to toe, delighted by each other's talent, holding nothing back, although Dusty may be just a little bit surprised that the "Splish Splash"/"Mack the Knife" guy has such incredible r & b chops.
It's not overstating it to say Darin was dying when he made these shows. Sometimes he clearly feels pretty good, and other times not. He doesn't betray that, but I can tell. He phrases differently – grabbing more air than usual – when he's under the weather. At the end of each show, he sings "Mack the Knife" while the credits roll and then recedes into a big empty soundstage in silhouette, which now plays hauntingly. If he's feeling good, he dances and prances; if he's having a rough week, he does just enough footwork and body language to fool you into thinking he's still Bobby Darin. It's said that he took oxygen off-stage before and after these performances, and that he was like a puppet with its strings snipped till the camera came on and the orchestra kicked in, and he came – for a time – alive.
Bobby Darin was a character Walden Robert Cassoto played. The coolness of the cat, swinging his songs on these shows, is startling in contrast to the goofy humor bits he does, like when he's in drag as "the Godmother," or sitting on a brownstone stoop jawing with a neighborhood pal. His acting talent comes to the fore in some excellent low-key production numbers in which he enacts a scene drawn from a song he's singing, as in "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight," where he's a lower-class joe entertaining a prostitute in a cheap hotel room. Fairly startling, actually.
Darin could do anything. He was Oscar-nominated for a dramatic movie role and won a Golden Globe for a comedy. He was a genuine rocker. He was easily the greatest blue-eyed soul singer of his generation. He recorded some of the first country rock and folk rock, and was a songwriter of talent and versatility (he's in the Songwriters Hall of Fame). At the start of his career, he opened for George Burns. In the last months of his life, he was the highest paid performer in Vegas.
If you buy this DVD set, know a couple of things. There are some things missing from these shows, apparently mostly guest-star performances that couldn't be cleared. There are comedy bits you may wish to skip, and some dreadful musical performances by guest stars. I mean, it's the early '70s. We're talking the kind of era that makes people nostalgic for THE BRADY BUNCH.
But when Darin takes centerstage, with a big band behind him, a microphone in hand, and a rapt audience before him, prepare to get chills. There are performances here, by this dying young man, that are spellbinding and mesmerizing – "Cry Me a River," "Some People," "Once in a Lifetime." A rare live performances of his great hit "Artificial Flowers" (one of his many songs about death) can be found here, and so can his thumbing-his-nose-at-the-reaper signature tune "Mack the Knife" – thirteen times, each different. The most astonishing performance is, perhaps surprisingly, his moving and electric rendition of Don McLean's "Driedel." Worth the price of admission.
The DVD set is widely available, on Amazon and at Barnes & Noble, and featured in mail-order catalogues like Critic's Choice.
For those of you who have no idea what the fuss is, check out this 1962 performance:

Here's that interview that Jon Jordan did with me about KING OF THE WEEDS and more.
Barb and I are thrilled that the Washington Post mystery review chose ANTIQUES CON for part of their round-up of new cozies.
And my old pal Ron Fortier (terrific writer his own self) had wonderful things to say about KING OF THE WEEDS.
JFK assassination expert Vince Palamara – one of my unwitting resources – has some very nice things to say about TARGET LANCER here. I can't tell you how much it means when somebody like Vince approves of my exploration of the key crime of the 20th Century.

Layout IDs in FileMaker with MBS Plugin
Next MBS FileMaker Plugin will have an option to show Layout IDs in the Layout Management dialog:
Of course I added new SyntaxColoring functions to enable or disable this by script as well as a preference dialog option for those who don't like this.
If the same name is used for several layouts, the plugin will not show the ID as it's not unambiguous.
Coming to the new next MBS Plugin prerelease in a few days. Or email for an early test copy.
Works fine in FileMaker 11 to 16 here.

Cartel Dumps 225 Million Ounces of Paper Silver Over 30 Minutes As Gold, Silver Raided— ———————————- Wed. Feb.29, 2012—
We reported a few minutes ago on the gold & silver raid in progress. The cartel raids have now smashed gold over $82 from $1788 to $1706, and silver close to $4 (10%!!) from $37.62 to $33.68. Also notice the classic mini-parabolic moves to the upside immediately prior to the raid- absolutely CLASSIC CARTEL ACTION!
The raid began at exactly at 10:00am EST coinciding with the Fed's release of its monetary policy state- ment to the House Financial Services Committee. For those who claim these immediate waterfall gap- downs in both metals were as a result of Bernanke's disapointment in no further QE, please realize this occurred exactly as the full report was released, and note the massive paper volume of 225 MILLION OUNCES OF PAPER SILVER OVER 30 MINUTES used to smash gold by $65 and silver by $2!:
Now we know why the cartel stepped back and allowed gold and silver to run higher through significant resistance points over the past 3 days- they have been waiting to coincide their smash with the release of the Fed's policy statement, in a weak attempt to use the Fed statement as cover for their massive raid and paper manipulation of the gold and silver market—

This week's haul from the CSA:
- Roma tomatoes
- Zucchini
- Green beans
- Eggplant
- Cucumber
- Garlic
- Chives
- Callaloo
- Bell peppers & jalapeños
First up? A stir fry. I cook stir-fry's all the time, but it always – always – tastes so much better with actual fresh veggies. I can't help but notice, every time I bring in the goodies from the CSA pick-up, that the veggies are so oddly shaped. I wonder, are they so visually unappealing that the local grocery stores wouldn't carry them?
* * * *
The tomatoes from the farm had been picked at such a perfect time that when I picked them out, they were already perfectly soft, so I needed to go ahead and use them quickly. Having just finished off several quart-sized freezer bags full of chopped tomatoes I'd frozen a while back, I was very eager to make some homemade pasta sauce from scratch. So I did.
We made tomato sauce in a similar way with the kids at cooking camp last week, but when I went to write it down for the cookbook we gave them at the end of the week, I couldn't even bring myself to reveal my favorite, sorta-secret ingredients! So this sauce – one of my very favorite things in the world – has been on my mind a lot lately. Imagine my delight at seeing those ripe, delicious-looking Romas sitting in those crates!
Making my favorite sauce tonight must have also caused the whimsical feeling that made me decide not to just scoop the sauce onto some pasta on a plate. I found a covered ramekin somewhere in the dark recesses of my cabinets and made myself a mini baked pasta casserole, with rosemary-olive oil breadcrumbs (I made those, too) and Parmiggiano Reggiano.
The cuteness of this dish has made me all sentimental, so I'll be spending the rest of the evening curled up with a bit more wine and a very sappy, (and also a favorite) movie, trying not to think about how soon I'll be back at work …

Across the Story Bridge
By Narelle Robertson
Thanks to Narelle, the AudioVisual Technician from Santa Sabina College [Sydney], for sharing this dramatic display idea which she used for Book Week 2010. I really like the idea of making 'books' out of old VHS boxes.
This is what she says about the display:
'Here are some photos of our library display for bookweek 2010
It was very simple to make.
We used old VHS tape boxes with photocopies of book covers inserted.
Then we drilled a hole throught the boxes to 'stack' them to make pylons.
Then using a plank of wood with a hole drilled into it at each end, we built our bridge.
We used old plastic tubs painted as bricks donated by boost juice,
We placed house bricks (which had holes in them) in the base of the tubs to anchor the whole bridge.
We then printed the banner associated with book week, and added our cut-out children.

text: There are more than 20 million Muslims in China [File: Mark Schiefelbein/AP Photo] Thousands of Muslims gathered at a mosque in northwestern China to protest its planned demolition in a rare, public pushback to the government's efforts to rewrite how religions are practised in the country. A large crowd of Hui people, a Muslim ethnic minority, began congregating at the towering Grand Mosque in the town of Weizhou on Thursday, local Hui residents told the Associated Press news agency. "People are in a lot of pain," said Ma Sengming, a 72-year-old man who was at the protest from Thursday morning until Friday afternoon. "Many people were crying. We can't understand why this is happening." Ma said the group shouted "Protect faith in China!" and "Love the country, love the faith!" {articleGUID} The protest comes as faith groups that were largely tolerated in the past have seen their freedoms shrink as the government seeks to "Sinicize" religions by making the faithful prioritise allegiance to the officially atheist ruling Communist Party. Islamic crescents and domes have been stripped from mosques, Christian churches have been shut down and Bibles seized, and Tibetan children have been moved from Buddhist temples to schools. The residents of Weizhou were alarmed by news that the government was planning to demolish the mosque despite initially appearing to approve its construction, which was completed just last year. The town's Communist Party secretary had even made a congratulatory speech at the site when the mosque's construction began, said Ma Zhiguo, a resident in his late 70s. The authorities planned to take down eight out of the nine domes topping the mosque on the grounds that the structure was built larger than permitted, Ma said. But community members were standing their ground, he added. "How could we allow them to tear down a mosque that is still in good condition?" he said, adding that the mosque conducts prayers attended by about 30,000 Muslims and was built using believers' personal funds. {articleGUID} Photos online show the mosque to be a palatial white structure, with towering columns, vertical windows and a Chinese national flag erected out front. Officials in the county and city propaganda offices said they were not aware of the situation. Other local authorities could not immediately be reached for comment. Ma Sengming said protesters remained at the mosque through the night from Thursday to Friday and were twice visited by a local official who encouraged them to go home. Ma said the official did not make any specific promises, but tried to assure the protesters that the government would work with them on the matter. More than a hundred police officers surrounded the mosque, but did not attempt to stop the protest, according to Ma. State-sanctioned repression Public demonstrations are rare in China, where the government is often quick to quash any hint of dissent. Under President Xi Jinping, the Communist Party is cracking down on religious expression and attacking what it calls radical ideas among the country's more than 20 million Muslims. {articleGUID} In the far west region of Xinjiang, hundreds of thousands of members of the Uighur and Kazakh Muslim minorities have been arbitrarily detained in indoctrination camps where they are forced to denounce Islam and profess loyalty to the party. Compared with those ethnic groups, the Hui are culturally much closer to China's Han majority, similar in appearance and speaking a variation of the mainstream Mandarin language. But recently, reports said authorities have shut down Hui religious schools and Arabic classes and barred children from participating in Muslim activities.

As director of Sanctuary House of S. Florida, I u seeing trends in several categories of clients, i.e., age, drug of choice, work history, and upbringing.
First, let me start by saying that it is my opinion that the age groups of 18-40 have the toughest time in establishing and maintaining sobriety, while battling addiction. This particular age group seems to have the compounded obstacles of peer pressure, an over exaggerated need to fit in, and coupled with the sex drive attributed to the period of life that defines "young people". In counseling young clients, it has been my experience that an inordinate amount of time is spent discussing issues of "fitting in".
While obtaining the feeling of being a part of the whole, reminding this age group often includes reassurance in the areas of self-discipline, examining consequences for actions, especially involving others; and the need to give more consideration when electing to date or having casual sexual partners. A great deal of emphasis in placed on friendships/socializing with individuals actively engaged in drinking and the use of drugs. The need to conform more with a recovery program, over the need to be "sociable", and making efforts to "stay busy" with a schedule, that also helps with the "sobriety killer", isolation;

Families change all the time. Marriages take place and break up, young adults move in and out of a household and children get old enough to want an iPad of their own. The new Family Sharing feature on i0S 8 allows for this sort of upheaval, which is why it's simple enough to move people in and out of family groups. Family Sharing, by the way, allows connected family members to share music, movies and books that they've purchased for free with other family members. Check out our previous blog post on Family Sharing for details on how to set it up.
Moving a child out of your family group
If you want a child in your family group to become a member of another family group, you'll need to ask the family organizer of the new group to send that child an invitation to join. To do that, the family organizer of the new group needs to tap on the Settings icon, then "iCloud", then "Add Family Member," before inputting the child's details. The family organizer of the old group must then accept or decline the invitation notification.
Moving a child into your family group
If you are the primary account holder, you can invite a child into your family group by doing the exact same action as above on your own iPad. Go into "Settings", then "iCloud", then "Add Family Member." The organizer of the child's previous group then needs to decline or accept the invitation to transfer the child.
How to leave family sharing
A family member over the age of 13 can leave a family group at any time. He or she does not need the primary account holder to remove him or her. The action that needs to be taken by the individual is done in "Settings". Tap on "iCloud" and then "Family." The family member then needs to tap on his or her name before tapping on "Leave Family".
What happens to the shared content on the device of a family member who has left the group?
The shared content on the device of a family member who has left a family group is not automatically removed, although purchases that have been used previously may become unusable. If subscriptions were paid for by the primary account holder previously, the family member who has left will be prompted to input their own credit card details in order to continue the service.
What happens when the family organizer leaves a family group?
If the primary account holder leaves a family group, Family Sharing will effectively stop. For the family organizer to leave, he or she must go into "Settings" and then "iCloud". In "Family", the organizer will tap on his or her own name and the other family members will all be removed. Shared photos, the calendar and reminders will remain with the organizer and family sharing can be set up again at any time.

Leading Wednesday morning's news cycle: Tuesday evening's bombing at Ataturk Airport in Istanbul has claimed the lives of 41 and injured 239 people. The Islamic State is the main suspect in the terrorist attack. U.S. airports have beefed up their security in response. The Turkish government, not a friend to the internet on the best day, has reportedly blocked some social media sites since the bombings. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton issued very different statements condemning the attack.

Toyota Motor has recalled nearly 3.4 million cars around the world due to separate emissions and airbag issues. Problems with emission-control units are to blame for 2.9 million cars being recalled, and airbag issues are the reason for the more than 1.4 million other cars cited. Some Prius models may have both defects. No customer injuries have been tied to either issue.
One pro-Brexit group in the U.K. has thanked a Washington, D.C.-based firm for its assistance during the campaign to get Britain out of the European Union. The co-chair of Leave.EU praised referendum specialist shop Goddard Gunster for lending it a hand during the push. Ten staffers from the firm were assigned to the Leave.EU account, with some embedded in the organization's London office.
The European Union's antitrust agency will review Bayer's pending $62 billion acquisition of Monsanto, it said Wednesday morning. The body has expressed concern about the effect the deal could have on prices, the availability of seed products, and research. The antitrust agency's announcement was made unusually early, before it had received official notification of the acquisition.
Donald Trump's campaign has added another key staffer: Vincent Harris, former chief digital strategist for Rand Paul. It's not clear what role Harris will play on Team Trump, according to Politico. The Texas-based operative has worked for Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich, as well as Israel's Likud Party.
Campaign trail watch: A Quinnipiac University national poll has Hillary Clinton running only two points ahead of Donald Trump, though the research is out-of-line with other recent polls that show the Democratic candidate with a more sizable advantage. Trump is reaching out to sports legends Mike Tyson and Mike Ditka to speak at the Republican National Convention next month.

Warm, comfortable
A few weeks ago I purchased a LAULU down coat and I am very pleased because the coat is high quality, very warm and windproof, which I have already tried on a cold windy day at the sea.
I bought a coat and got excellent advice and service. Unfortunately, I was wrong with the size, but I changed it quickly and the consultants answered all the questions by email. I have a very warm and beautiful coat. ILGA N. from Latvia
Excellent experience. I had read an on-line review and it was good so I went ahead and made my purchase. It arrived promptly, the size was perfect, excellent fabric, and warm and nice to look at. Highly recommend
I have bought Laulu down coat a month ago. I have received my shipment in a couple of days, even though it was an international shipment. I was not sure about the size of the coat, so I emailed them about the opportunity to exchange it. I have received a fast and detailed answer form the representative. Fortunately, the size was perfect. I wear L, and got the same size of Laulu coat. Thank you so much for the garment. The quality of it is amazing. I recommended your coats to all my friends and colleagues. Love the color (blue) and can't wait for winter to come : ) Monika

- La Iglesia frente a los desafíos de la modernidad. Cardenal Paul Poupard, presidente del Pontificio Consejo de la Cultura, en la Fundación Universitaria Española (Madrid, 28-5-2001)
12th International Conference on Thinking.
Melbourne, Australia. July, 2005.
An introduction to the science of thinking. Tom Daly & John Little.
Centre for Research in Ethics and Decision-making in Organisations.
Australian Catholic University, Australia.
A science is a body of systematic and formulated knowledge. Bernard Lonergan, in Insight: A Study of Human Understanding (1956, 5th Ed., 1992) has a chapter on "The Canons of Empirical Method", in which he briefly suggests that "empirical method … should be applicable to the data of consciousness no less than the data of sense" and would appropriately "be named generalized empirical method". Just as Galileo showed how an inclined plane helps us to find intelligibility in motion, and Newton how prisms help us formulate and verify hypotheses regarding light, so exercises in questions, puzzles, and jokes help even children to find intelligibility in the data of consciousness, and to appreciate Aristotle's distinction between intelligence and sensation. An interactive session of such exercises helps us discover a structure of learning that helps us make sense of the remarkable thinking skills developed in our generation.
The minder as integrator in individual and corporate thinking. John Little.
Centre for Research into Ethics and Decision-making in Organisations.
Australian Catholic University, Australia.
Bernard Lonergan, in his philosophical exploration of thinking and of knowledge in Insight: a Study of Human Understanding (1956 or 1992), introduced the term Generalised Empirical Method (GEM). In this session participants will be invited to explore GEM experientially to discover their own mind's minder and to appreciate its role as a contemporary tool, on the one hand for self-mastery and, on the other, for leading, influencing or facilitating change within the corporate mind. The efficacy of GEM derives from its personal validation and appropriation. As such, it is a powerful tool for executive coaches to facilitate insight, reflective capacities and more effective decision-making within their executive clients. A template of Generalised Organisational Process, GOP, developed from the main features of GEM and the notion of minder, will shed fresh perspectives on the meaning of value-adding for a corporation and on the nature of its governance.

Carving a Pumpkin for Halloween
Halloween time is not only a time for fun costumes; it is also a time to make Jack-O'-Lanterns out of fresh pumpkins. The process can be a bit messy, but if you are prepared you can avoid making a mess and make clean up simple. If you are really careful, you can even recycle the guts of the pumpkin to make roasted pumpkin seeds or the filling for pumpkin pie!
Things You Will Need:Newspaper
A knife
A pumpkin stencil or a pen
Find a decent sized work surface; a kitchen table or the floor in the basement is good choices.
Cover your work area in newspaper; this is going to protect the surface from pumpkin guts.
Wash off your pumpkin; pumpkins usually have dirt on them and you want to get it all off before beginning
Cut a circle around the stem of the pumpkin using a small knife. Make sure you cut away from yourself in case you slip. Your hole should be large enough that your hand can fit inside the pumpkin with ease.
Take a large spoon and scoop out all the guts and strings from the pumpkin until the pumpkin is nice and clean on the inside. If you want to cook with the insides of the pumpkin, scoop it into a bowl for later use, if you are planning on throwing it away, just wrap it up in newspaper.
Next, find the side of the pumpkin that looks the best for your design. If you are using a stencil, tape your stencil to this side. If you are doing it by hand, draw your design on this side of the pumpkin.
Using a small kitchen knife, carefully carve your design out of the face of the pumpkin, making sure that the cuts are uniform on the inside and the outside. This is very key if you plan on putting a candle inside as the light will have a hard time passing through tapered cuts.
Throw the pumpkin pieces you just cut out in the garbage.
Light a votive candle and place it inside!
That is it, you've just carved your pumpkin into a Jack-O-Lantern.

On December 29 we added Melanie Ferris Bryant's warrant and information to our MOST Wanted Fugitives Website and LCSO Facebook page as Livingston County had issued a felony warrant for alleged class C felony of Assault in 2nd Degree of Driving While Intoxicated offense resulting in injury. The warrant information had previously been given to Linn County Sheriff Tom Parks and they were unable to locate Ms. Bryant that date.
December 30 Ms. Bryant surrendered to our office on the Livingston County arrest warrant and posted the $15,000 bond. Ms. Bryant reported that when our office placed her information on our website and internet that her phone nearly "blew up" from the messages she received.
We are uncertain if Ms. Bryant appreciated this attention, but our website and our sharing public information resulted in the quick service of this warrant. In this case Ms. Bryant surrendered and had the instant ability to post bond and avoid incarceration.
We appreciate all the TIPS on this and/or other MOST Wanted postings. We also appreciate Ms. Bryant doing the right thing and surrendering herself.

Google Conundrum
Computers and technology seem inherently disappointing. Isn't it amazing all of the things we can do today that nobody even imagined 10 years ago… Facebook, Twitter, phone apps, mobility, cloud computing, blogging, etc.
The problem is, when I find an application that does something I want — like Outlook does a nice job organizing a calendar and has a super powerful task function — there are trade-offs, Outlook is confined to a single PC. As computer hardware becomes more ubiquitous, being confined to a single work station, even if it is a laptop or a smart phone, seems silly and limiting.
From Outlook to Google
So, I moved on to Google. The Gmail email interface is more flexible than Outlook and replacing folders with tags was ingenious… and liberating. With tags and Google's famous search capabilities, filing and retrieving messages is no longer a chore. Plus, I no longer I have to limit myself to a single piece of hardware. I can access messages anywhere I have an internet connection. Plus, the calendar function has evolved to be even better than Outlook (it didn't start there!) Google is working on an improved "task" functionality, but it too is painfully so slow in coming.
Next Comes Mobility
Once freed from a single work station, my mind begins to worry about accessing information when I'm not connected to a network. Sure, I could pay my Verizon cancellation fee, spend an exorbitant sum on an iPhone and throw the thousands of dollars I've spent on PC-compatibility out the window so I could switch to Apple's dark side, which also brings other complications. Too bad money doesn't grow on trees. Plus, AT&T cellular coverage sucks in the small community where I live. And, all cellular coverage has holes. So, expecting to always have a network connection is such 2025 thinking.
Enter an iPod Touch. The benefits are great — in addition to getting a portable, flexible organizer that works even when the network is unavailable or inconvenient to use, iTunes allows synchronization with Outlook; Outlook will sync with Google and the whole system "hangs together." The Touch does not require an expensive phone plan and it can sync with this time management universe through a small USB cable.
Onto Convenience
With computer memory so cheap and so many useful applications available, 64-bit technology is the next logical step. With old style 32-bit processors, computers are limited to 4GB of memory. That worked when there wasn't much to run on your PC, but things have changed. The 64-bit processor allows virtually unlimited memory but also requires more modern operating systems and sophisticated software programs. Windows 7 promises many improvements over Windows XP (I never did make the step into Vista) and I dutifully updated all of my equipment to run Microsoft's latest and greatest operating system this month.
Now the Google Conundrum
Even though 64-bit technology has been around for years, Google hasn't discovered it yet. While their Calendar Sync application does a wonderful job of keeping my iPod synchronized with Google calendar via Outlook and iTunes, it doesn't work in a 64-bit environment. Windows 7 offers this cool gimmick called "compatibility mode" which allows a user to run applications as if they were in a previous operating environment. I say "gimmick" because it doesn't work. Much like the play ground toys at my local grade school, there are lots of knobs to tweak and levers to pull, but nothing happens outside of your imagination.
And, I'm on my own. Nobody seems to have this same problem and Google has no plans to support 64-bit operating systems. Microsoft has no incentive to put its client-based application online in a meaningful way for an individual user. Apple is stuck in their arrogance of wanting to control all elements of their tiny virtual ecosystem. All those mobile app builders are busying themselves with more important functionality for the masses like Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars or iMario Lite.
Once again, my fantasies drift back to simpler days of paper-based Franklin Day Planners…Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( 1 so far )
