You can catch up on our "marriage story" here.
"Tell me anything and everything. I want to know you, everything little about you. Even the secret corners of your heart that feels hardest to let be seen and known. I want to know those places most of all."
Fast forward to our 15th anniversary, February 11th 2017, six years after the affair.
This night we sat across from one another celebrating more than just the fact that we made it. On no, we had so much more to celebrate than just making it together.
Grace had won! It means that failure, guilt, shame, bitterness – even death, didn't get the final say.
Life and love won out and we were IN love, which is so much different than just making it together.
We made it out to the other side of this having gained so much more than we had before. That is the true miracle we'll never get over. Something much bigger, greater than us had come into our darkness and breathed life into all that was dead, and filled us full to overflowing of the all the grace and power that we could never have conjured up on our own.
On that night of our 15th anniversary, Anthony had lined up a different restaurant for each phase of the evening and we made our way through them; eating, drinking, laughing, talking. It felt much like when our love was brand new and we were getting to know one another for the first time, falling in love, only better.
Better because this time, our love was different.
This new love had been deeply forged in the fire into a love that is deep and wide and sturdy.
Because we have seen the darkest parts of one another; and stayed to walk through the dark together hand in hand, on our knees, one carrying the other at times – we remained still when we wanted to run, instead choosing to do the hard work rather than walk away and discard everything good and everything that went wrong in hopes of a better, brighter life with someone else.
The truth is that the more intimately you know someone, the more clearly you'll see their flaws. That's just the way it is. This is why marriages fail, why children are abandoned, why friendships don't last. You might think you love someone until you see the way they act when they are out of money or under pressure, or hungry, for goodness' sake. Love is something different. Love is choosing to serve someone and be with someone in spite of their filthy heart. Love is patient and kind, love is deliberate. Love is hard. Love is pain and sacrifice, it's seeing the darkness in another person and defying the impulse to jump ship. – Anonymous
We shared so much that night, holding nothing back. And I realized that after 15 years of marriage, we have learned how to be emotionally intimate with one another…which adds a much greater depth to our love that mere than physical intimacy ever could.
Every year on our anniversary since the affair, we've tried our best to make it a point to go away alone together. It always, always brings back the memories of those few days we spent together just after my admission of the affair. How dark and how painful that time was, reminding us just how beautiful is the new season we've come to know.
The entire weekend was more that just a celebration of us, it was a time of reflection and celebration of what we know God has done. What He brought us from, and where we know He is taking us. It was a night (a weekend) we will never forget for as long as we live.
We've had more people than we can count, ask us this one question: "How? How do you get from there where you were to where you are now?" It's an incredibly intimidating question to try and answer because any answer almost feels insufficient. And truth is, we know that none of them come with a promise that things will turn out well for every relationship.
And ya'll, I hate lists and bullet points when it comes to the stuff of life because well, life never fits neatly into human formulas or bullet point lists. This, I know well.
But if we had to attempt to lay out the skeleton of a blueprint for how we not only made it through my affair, but how we have learned to continuously forge a marriage that doesn't just defy all the odds, but is beyond ordinary; these are the things we would list as the most important "weapons of our warfare" and we want to let you in one every little nugget of truth for a wonderful marriage that we have tried and found to work.
- God. I'm sorry if this seems "canned" or too "Christianized" for some. There is just no way around the fact that the Holy Spirit was and is the only reason we are anything at all. Period. If you are looking for a different solution to your mess and your hurt, I've literally got nothing for you. We invited Him into our mess, and He empowered us to do and feel all the things that would never have been humanly possible in our human strength. His enormous presence in our story made (and still makes) ALL the difference. Nothing we list below would matter much at all without this first, most critical weapon in our arsenal against the many enemies of our marriage, our family, and our lives.
- Our faith. Our faith IN God, is the literal foundation that we have tested thoroughly and found to be sturdy and sure when everything else in our lives is not. When everything was dark chaos, and the bombs had obliterated everything we thought we had, the foundation our faith rests upon never crumbled or even shifted beneath us. Jesus was what we clung to when He was literally all we had left, and who we continue to cling to as we work to build a life and love together that stands when everything in life falls away.
- Removing divorce as an option. We realized early on that as long as we entertained divorce as an option, and kept throwing around the word at each other on the worst days when emotions were raw and hurt was so deep, we would have little reason to fight to do the hard work of rebuilding from the ground up as long as there was a big flashing, red "EXIT" sign on the most painful doorways of our marriage. As long as divorce remains as an "out" there is little chance of saving a marriage, much less rebuilding anything that is healthy and good.
- Restoring & building emotional intimacy. = "Into me you see". We figured out real fast that if you can't get 100% honest with one another about everything; the good, the bad, and the real ugly, then you literally don't have a ice-cube's chance in hell of healing or having a great marriage. Emotional intimacy is hardest for men, but necessary and possible when a man (or woman) is willing to lay down their natural bends and "comfort zone" for the good of the relationship. It is a learned part of any relationship and takes two to forge a deep, emotional bond of 100% transparency and honesty. Healthy emotional intimacy literally means you give one another the freedom to bare your whole soul (past, failures, disappointments, hurts, fears, hopes, dreams, fantasies, ect.) without fear of anger, consequences, or judgment.
- Individual introspection & soul work. Introspection is the ability to reflect deeply and critically (not judgmentally) on oneself and honestly evaluate what is good, what is life-giving, what might need work, what is toxic, and what needs to change. Soul work is like taking a good look at your heart from an outside perspective and realizing, "Oh, these are the rooms, the places filled with junk and need to be cleaned out so the light can shine through." When we stopped focusing on what was wrong in one another and started to ask God to reveal the truth about our own heart, healing took on a whole new momentum. Soul work is done individually and personally, and can look like: prayer, repentance before God and the other person, digging in the Word of God, reading books to help gain wisdom, counseling, journaling, times of reflection, and listening to (and acting on) the wisdom of wise friends, mentors, pastors, and counselors. A marriage is only ever as good as the private inner life, spiritual health of the man and the woman individually because we can never give out what we do not possess.
- Counsel Seeking out wise counsel is critical in all points of life, but never more necessary than when you're in the midst of a crisis. In fact, it's scriptural! "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man is he who listens to counsel." – Proverbs 12:15 "Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory." – Proverbs 11:14
Wise counsel often takes the form of spiritually mature friends and mentors in our lives, a non-judgmental pastor or spiritual leader, wise and spiritually seasoned family members, and of course, professional (faith based) counseling. We KNOW this is a hard step for many. No one is comfortable with the raw vulnerability of laying bare their darkest places in front of anyone, and then doing the hard work of working through the tough issues. It's never easy or fun. We get it. But this is a step you can't just skip past and think you're going to heal individually or together in a healthy way. It's worth every bit of the hard work, every tear, every hard discussion, every cent.
- Repentance & Forgiveness If there is one thing we realized, was the no affair is ever about just one spouse. It is rarely (if ever) just about one person screwing up. Affairs are the symptom of a festering problem within the person and in the marriage. And since a marriage consists of two, both have to shoulder their own role to play in it all. This was certainly true for us. And there were crucial and pivotal moments in which Anthony and I both had to get so honest about our individual junk (sin) with one another. You know, all those places we keep hidden away so we don't have to face or deal with them, convincing ourselves that they aren't that bad, all the while hoping no one else will notice or call us out on it. Our marriage healing, was a time when nothing could be left uncovered or undealt with. It was "get it all up and out" time because I mean, what else did we stand to lose? We intentionally pulled the black sheet off of every hidden corner of our hearts and in humility (not shame) confessed them, asking for the forgiveness of both one another and of God – without condemning one another. I believe that this one thing alone made ALL the difference in things. For there to be healing, there MUST be repentance (genuine sorrow for sin & turning away from it) and genuine forgiveness must be mutually exchanged.
- Accountability Truth, though not impossible, it is much more difficult and less likely that we would fall into the traps of pornography, infidelity, addictions, ect. and not be open and honest with one another about it if we have true accountability in our lives. Scripturally, accountability should be a given in our lives that we have other people we stay in community with and are also accountable to, even with our private lives. But in our individualistic society, this just will not happen unless we make it a priority. Anthony and I have first made ourselves accountable to one another..and a trusted (spiritually mature) friend or two that is truly for you that you can confide in and they won't spread your dirt. For example, if he is struggling with his private thought life or temptation to run to porn, he comes to me and lets me into his private world and we walk through those things together rather than just struggling alone. When I am struggling in an area or tempted, or a man attempts to start up a private conversation with me via social media or text, ect., I tell him. We do this to "out ourselves" because sin literally cannot grow when it becomes exposed to light. When we use the honesty of accountability to shine a bright light on the dark corners of our own heart and let one another into that place, much of the private allure fades away and we can hold one another to a higher standard of purity in all areas of life. If it can't be your spouse, find a trusted friend who will hold you to that standard and BE HONEST.
- Boundaries Through the affair, one area we realized we had been lax was in the area of setting boundaries in our marriage. And to be honest, there have been times since that we have missed the mark in this area. But we regularly evaluate things and put boundaries in place that make it harder for either us to end up falling into a well-placed trap. A few examples of current boundaries are that we do not text or message members of the opposite sex on our phones or social media UNLESS we include the other in on the conversation. We do not meet in private with a member of the opposite sex for any reason – even for counseling. And we do not engage in any behavior on our devices or in real life that we would need to "delete" or hide from our spouse. These are the simple "seemingly innocent" ways that most forms of infidelity in marriage begin and can be lessened simply by having firm boundary lines up front that you have decided you will not cross.
- Lots of intentional quality time alone together I do not put this one last because it is least important. In fact, it should be up closer to the top of the list honestly. Our marriage comes first. Period. The kids do not, work does not, friends do not, church does not and family does not. We have learned the need to be intentional about making margin in our lives to get away together (if it just means shutting our bedroom door for a few hours on some weeks) because if we don't, the demands of life crowd in and we find ourselves collapsing in bed together a 9 pm realizing that the best parts of us have been spent on everything in the world except one another. And that is how any marriage begins a slow, sneaky decent downward and in completely opposite directions. Quality time and actually doing life together is one of the most powerful ways we prevent ourselves from ever finding ourselves sitting across from one another in a lawyer's office realizing we have become two strangers who used to be in love, on two totally different paths in life, wishing to just go our own ways.
- Pursuit Why is is that we pursue one another when we are dating and then stop when the honeymoon is over? I mean, does passion really have an "on/off" switch? The truth is, I had missed being pursued by the man who held my heart, and so did he. When this happens in a marriage we begin to selfishly try to fill up those holes of longing with "other things". Pornography, food, children, ministry, work, sex, addictions, toxic relationships, other people. They are all cheap substitutes that will never ever take the place of holy, passionate pursuit of God and of one another. When we began to go out of our way to pursue one another again, we started to fall in love with one another all over again in brand new ways and deeper levels.
- Leadership in the home First of all men, I don't care how she may come across at times. If there is one thing almost every woman secretly longs for in a man, it is a strong leader who will fight for her. Even one who will stand up to her as he loves her and consistently fights for and pursues her heart. Sure, she may be yelling and throwing dishes (or giving the silent treatment) but what her soul is secretly crying out is, "Lead me!" It is built into women to desire to be lead. The trouble is that too few men are leading. This was an area of our marriage that we needed to address, and one of the hard things I learned to express to him. Apathy slowly sneaks in and our strong leaders turn into apathetic, luke-warm couch potatoes who barely even notice that the enemy is rummaging their house, stealing the best of the goods, much less have the desire or capacity to do anything about it and lead. Men, MAN. UP. Stop apathetically allowing the women to lead and leaving them in want of someone to lead them and BE THE MAN of your home and the man that your wife longs for and deserves.
- Submission Submission to God and to one another is a cornerstone of a Godly, fruitful marriage. As we serve and submit to the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives, the natural fruit of that is service and submission to one another. As Anthony serves and submits to the leaderships of the Holy Spirit in his life, I can submit myself to him…even when I don't understand or agree, because I trust His leadership and this his heart is for me.
This "list" though certainly not exhaustive, is the meat and potatoes so to speak of the logical action steps we took in the very beginning of working through the aftermath of the affair, and what we do today to continually build and maintain a thriving marriage that is mutually fulfilling and life giving.
Do we get it right all the time? Definitely not. We are human. We get distracted, side-tracked and just plain tired sometimes just like everyone else. But what we have is a sure and steady foundational blue-print to go back to when things start to feel dull and shaky or just plain off kilter.
These are the "every little things" that have become the sturdy foundation we have built beneath us from which every single other thing in our life flows out out; our home, our children, their futures, our futures, and how we are able to impact a watching world to come to know by seeing this Gospel of grace and power lived out; this Jesus who has saved us in every way possible for two lives to be saved.
"Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won't collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn't obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash." – Matthew 7:24-27

3 jailed in counterfeiting case after I-70 chase hits 120 mph
RICHMOND, Ind. — Two men and a woman from Chicago were jailed in a counterfeiting case after a high-speed chase on Interstate 70.
Kamika Renea Nellums, 29; Corian D. Pitchford, 32; and Deandre Howse, 28, were all preliminarily charged with felonies when lodged Wednesday afternoon in the Wayne County Jail, according to a news release from Capt. Curt Leverton, supervisor of Richmond Police Department's Investigative Services Division.
Nellums, the driver during the chase, is charged with Level 6 felony resisting law enforcement by fleeing in a vehicle. Pitchford is charged with forgery and aiding, inducing or causing resisting law enforcement, both Level 6 felonies. Howse was charged with Level 6 felony forgery.
RPD first-shift patrol officers responded to the east side of Richmond on the report of people trying to pass and passing counterfeit $100 bills at east-side businesses, the release said. Officers located and stopped a suspect vehicle; however, Nellums fled police after initially stopping.
The chase proceeded east on U.S. 40 and continued on westbound Interstate 70. Scanner traffic from pursuing officers reported consistent speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour and up to 120 mph during the chase. Nellums eventually stopped the vehicle again near the rest area at mile marker 143, according to the release.
"A well-coordinated effort by multiple agencies played a role in the apprehension," the release said. Wayne County Sheriff's Office, Indiana State Police and Centerville Police Department assisted RPD with the chase and apprehension.
The three suspects were interviewed at RPD headquarters before they were lodged in the jail. The case remains open for follow-up investigation.
RPD has recently noticed an uptick in counterfeiting, according to the release. Anyone with information regarding counterfeiting is asked to call RPD at 765-983-7247.

Reds GM Walt Jocketty told John Fay yesterday that Aroldis Chapman may one day be the Reds' closer:
"We would still leave (starting) as an option," Jocketty said. "He definitely could be a top-of-the-rotation guy. He's either going to have to do that or be a closer. I don't see him being a set-up guy forever."
Whatever. I don't know when the meeting was held in which everyone decided that closers were more valuable than starters, but I'd really like to see the minutes. Because at some point in that meeting, someone must have stood up and yelled "People! If you have a talented pitcher, he should start games unless and until he shows he can't hack it for some reason! Then and only then should he be stuck in the bullpen, because it's not in your best interest to use your better pitchers in fewer innings!"
People love that Chapman and Neftali Feliz and before them Joba Chamberlin and any number of other guys like them can throw it hard and shut people down, so they somehow assume they should be doing it out of the pen. I don't get it. It's almost as if it'd be better if they were less impressive just before reaching the majors so that their teams wouldn't be inclined to shove them in the big league bullpen for a playoff run, which in turn causes everyone to forget that they were once quality starting pitching prospects.

Online shopping is no longer a trend or a hype. It is now part of the shopping lifestyle of many people. Almost all advanced countries have online shops for everything they need at home, not only specialty products. Going to the mall or the grocery store have somehow becoming a thing that can be considered optional. You can buy almost everything with a click of a mouse.
Personally, I have become an avid fan of online shopping. I buy a lot of things online, from books, blouses, shoes, gadgets, and even plan for my next vacation by booking at Hotels.com. And just recently, I bought toiletries online!
But when it comes to spending money, online shopping or traditional shopping is pretty much the same. You need to be smart lest you get sidetracked with your family's budget. So here are some useful tips to save money while you enjoy online shopping:
1.) Only buy the things that you need. Don't add things inside your cart just because they are on sale.
2.) Before buying the things you need, check if a coupon is available to get discounts. Make it a habit, use coupons or similar ones like you can use for Groupon Goods to save money.
3.) If you are to make a wishlist, just stick on making the list. Don't buy them if you don't need them now.
4.) Always compare prices from different online shops.
5.) Consider free delivery offers but if the required purchase amount is big, then paying the shipping fee is much reasonable.

Poplars price leads to sales increase
While poplar sales dropped considerably a year ago, they're now working their way back up as the market improves. Known for being the least expensive hardwood that is found throughout the Eastern U.S., as well as a winner for paint-grade applications, the species is an ideal material for home remodeling jobs, mid-grade furniture construction and secondary woodworking applications.
Carl Mahlstedt, of Goosebay Sawmill & Lumber in Chichester, N.H., says sales have been good for the last four months and are much better than a year ago. He attributes the increase to an improving economy and believes it's an indication that things are getting better.
"One of the highlights of poplar is the price. It's probably the least expensive hardwood and it's easy to work with. It's not a very dense hardwood. For somebody that's building an inexpensive piece of furniture or somebody that's going to paint furniture, it's a good choice," says Mahlstedt.
"We stock it in sizes from 1/2 to 4" thick. The 4"-thick lumber allows people to do some things they can't do with other species and it also comes in wide widths and long lengths, so it's a good wood for a number of reasons and the variety of sizes available is a highlight."
Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) is a member of the magnolia family and is also known as tulip tree and tulip poplar. True poplars include aspen (Populus tremuloides), cottonwood (Populus deltoides) and balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera), all members of the willow family.
Tom Sontag, of Lumber Logs LLC, an urban log recycling company in St. Louis, says poplar sales are steady and comparable to last year. "Poplar is always running out the door here. We don't have any trouble keeping it in stock because of the nice big logs we get. I would say that people know poplar is good for certain things and that's what they use it for. It's the No. 1 wood for anything that gets painted. A lot of my customers use it for home trim, moldings or anything that will be painted anyway. A lot of our sales go to people that are doing some type of remodeling inside their house."
Jack Murdock, of Murdock Building Co. & Portable Sawmill in Rolesville, N.C., says his poplar sales have been pretty steady for about six years.
Retail prices for FAS 4/4 poplar were quoted at $1.75 to $2.50/bf.

At least 29 people, including nine journalists, have been killed and dozens wounded after two explosions hit Kabul, according to Afghan health officials.
The blasts went off during rush hour on Monday morning in the Shash Darak area of the Afghan capital.
Al Jazeera's Jennifer Glasse, reporting from Kabul, said the armed group Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS) claimed responsibility for the attack.
In the first explosion, a suicide bomber detonated himself close to the National Directorate of Security (NDS), the main Afghan intelligence agency, TOLO News quoted an interior ministry spokesman as saying.
In another explosion that followed 20 minutes later, a second suicide bomber targeted emergency medical workers and journalists who had arrived at the scene.
The Afghan Journalists Safety Committee reported that nine journalists who rushed to cover the aftermath of the first explosion were killed in the second blast.
A spokesperson for the Afghan health ministry said the attacks killed at least 29 people and wounded 49 others, according to TOLO News.
AFP news agency reported that its chief photographer in Kabul, Shah Marai, was among the fatalities.

Azadi Radio, the Dari language service of Radio Free Europe, also reported that two of its staff have died.
Radio Free Europe identified the two journalists as Abadullah Hananzai and Moharram Durrani. A third staffer Sabwoon Kakar was injured.
An Al Jazeera photographer was also hurt in the incident.
TOLO News also reported that two other journalists were wounded in the second blast.
"It's a very grim morning here," Al Jazeera's Glasse said describing the situation in the Afghan capital.
She added that there are many fortified streets near the site of the attack.
"There's a lot of security in that area – it's not far from NATO headquarters – and security has been beefed up around the Afghan capital, but clearly they haven't been able to stop these kind of attacks."
The explosions on Monday come just a week after a blast hit a voter registration centre in Kabul, killing at least 57 people and wounding more than 100 others.
Attacks have multiplied in recent days in advance of the long-delayed parliamentary and district council elections scheduled for October 20 this year.
"The series of attacks here in Kabul have made the Afghan capital most dangerous place in Afghanistan to be," Al Jazeera's Glasse said.

Today, patient representatives from all over Europe gathered in Dublin for a prestigious event to mark World Haemophilia Day.
The European Haemophilia Consortium shared exciting new data on the value of patient and clinical involvement in the procurement of clotting factor products. A recent pan-European survey not only found that conducting a national tender lowered prices but, strikingly, that tenders where patients and clinicians took leading rolls achieved the best value of all.
The meeting also learned that the adoption of a new EU Directive on procurement (2014/24/EU) and the licensing of new, longer acting products, means that tender criteria in many countries will have to be rewritten. This provides a fantastic opportunity for countries who run tenders to formally include patients and clinicians on their tendering boards.
Clotting factor procurement is a matter for the Scottish Government. However, for the last three tenders Scotland has purchased products as part of a UK tender. Haemophilia Scotland is calling for Scottish patients to have a formal role in the procurement process. The Scottish Government has already announced that it will establish a National Haemophilia Committee in Scotland (to be known as the National Managed Clinical Network for Inherited Bleeding Disorders). That will give patients a voice in decisions about how Haemophilia Services in Scotland are delivered. We believe that the Scottish patient voice must be heard when procurement decisions are made as well.
The Penrose Report revealed that English patients had access to products which didn't transmit Hepatitis C much earlier than in Scotland. We believe that decisions like that wouldn't happened if Scottish patients were properly involved. Putting Scottish patients at the heart of the procurement process is an important lesson from the findings of the Penrose Inquiry.

If someone owes you a large amount of money and can't pay there are a number of options open to you:
a) go to their house and take their stuff (there are legal restrictions on this);
b) take them to court;
c) ask them nicely to pay you back;
d) agree with them that they can pay some back now and some back later;
e) agree with them that they can pay some back and let them off the rest;
f) write off the whole debt and put it down to experience.
These are some of the options open to the people who have been lenders to the Greek government.
Who are these people? Banks, insurance companies, pension funds - any institution that was looking for a place to keep their money and earn a return on it (government debt is regarded as a safer place than, for example, the stock market).
Why lend it to Greece? Because governments are traditionally (and ironically) safe people to lend to and Greece debt gave them a decent return compared to other governments.
Why did the Greek government need to borrow? All governments borrow money from time to time - to pay for railway projects, new hospitals, the Olympics, or to make up the difference when tax revenues aren't as high as what they are spending. Of course, they need to pay it back and the theory is that as the economy grows they will earn the tax revenue to pay back the debt. Simples.
However, the Greeks borrowed a bit too much and these banks and pension funds were a bit too keen to lend to them. Consequently we are now looking at a number of options for Greece and each one has its own consequences. If you write off the debt then that could potentially put banks and insurance companies out of business or at the very least cause some damage to them (and they could include YOUR bank and the company that insures YOUR car). If you force Greece to keep paying then they might end up being unable to pay and then not pay any of it off. Or if you write off some of it, what message does that send?
A small but significant example of the problem is that large pharmaceutical companies are so worried about not being paid that they have been cutting the credit available to the Greek insurance fund which provides prescription drugs - equivalent to them cutting back on the amount of drugs they are willing to sell to the NHS without the money up front. The consequences of this are that patients with cancer or heart problems are having trouble getting the drugs they need and people are lined-up outside pharmacies trying to get life-saving drugs for ill relatives.
This is just one example of the current consequences. However, if Greece ended up having to leave the Euro, this would throw up even more issues. They would have to have a new currency, this would probably devalue against the Euro but what would happen to someone who had borrowed 100,000 original Euros to buy a house - do they pay back the bank (which could be German) in original Euros (which will cost that person a fortune) or do they pay them back in new Greek Euros (which would lead to a loss for the bank)? What about contracts with foreign suppliers which involve multi-million Euro agreements? Are these original Euros or new Greek Euros now? And if you were Greek, how quickly would you try to get your money out of the bank to keep the value of it as the original Euro?
This is why it's all a bit of a nightmare. I have heard suggestions that it the debt gets written off then the banks should seize the island of Rhodes as compensation. Interesting but probably illegal under international law. However, at least it's an idea.

As was expected, Bimota has been officially suspended from the remaining World Superbike rounds, in a statement by the FIM. The suspension comes after Bimota failed to meet the initial 125 unit volume, the FIM's new magic number for superbike homologation, as it pertained to the Bimota BB3.
With only three rounds remaining in the 2014 World Superbike Championship, it's doubtful that we'll see Bimota return this season. However, Bimota can return to the race track if it meets the 125 unit homologation requirement, and will be able to race in 2015 if it can build 250 units by the end of this year.
Bimota was able to race this far in the season, thanks to a special rule made by the FIM, which put the Italian brand on the race track, but unable to keep any points from its finishing positions in the EVO Class until it reached the 125 unit mark.
Under this new rule, Bimota had four months to meet the 125 unit requirement. Its failure to meet it is the reason for its now suspension from WSBK racing. What this means for riders Ayrton Badovini and Christian Iddon, and for Team Alstare, remains to be seen.

|Eco-Justice Ministries
The E-mail Commentary from Eco-Justice Ministries
Work, Work, Work
The fact that I saved my physics textbook from high school is a good indicator that I was a genuine science geek. The fact that I'm about to quote from that old textbook to make a point about eco-justice programming in churches must say something significant about my current personality -- but I'm afraid to dig too deeply into those psychological details.
I really did have a great time with science in high school. Those first studies in biology shaped my early ecological understandings and fostered my respect for all forms of life. Along with a few close friends, I did have "phun with physics" -- especially playing with all the fun scientific equipment (expensive toys) in the physics storeroom.
So, yes, I was a well-known geek. The scientific principles that I studied seemed to fit very easily into my mental maps. I still remember the big theories and formulas that I learned 35 years ago -- and I still keep the physics book on my shelves at home.
But there was one idea from the physical sciences that didn't fit comfortably in my brain. It has to do with "work."
At its simplest, the formula to express how much work has been done is "W = F*D" -- work is equal to the amount of force that is applied, multiplied by the distance the object is moved. So far, so good.
But, by that formula, if the object never moves, no work is done -- no matter how much force is applied. Any measure of force, multiplied by zero, will always be zero.
I argued with the teachers. "But if I push as hard as I can on this wall for the next hour, I'm working hard!" The teachers responded that I would be exerting a lot of force, and I would get tired, but (by the technical definition), I would not be doing any work.
The textbook, on pages 301-2, addresses that specific question. A man, it says, "could also become exhausted by pulling on a heavy object that won't budge, but he will not thereby have done any work on it as defined in physical science. It is important not to let our subjective notions of activity, achievement, or fatigue become confused with this very different use of the word 'work.'"
+ + + + +
So what, pray tell, does this arcane and technical definition have to do with churches?
I see lots of churches where dedicated people put forth a great deal of effort in a noble cause, and "nothing moves" -- no "work" is done. Knowing full well that many of you will argue with the specifics (for human relations and church life are much harder to measure than the movement of a block of wood), let me provide two examples.
Just like the technical definition in physics tells us, there's a difference between expending a lot of effort and accomplishing something measurable. The fact that we get tired in the doing of all our good and noble eco-justice projects does not mean that any "work" is getting done.
Offering a class, holding a community meeting, providing a worship experience, or debating a proposal are the ecclesiastical equivalent of pushing or pulling on a physical object. Doing those things is essential to any "work" getting done, but putting forth the effort doesn't produce any real "work" until something moves.
In all of our programming -- and I'm thinking about my own work at Eco-Justice Ministries, too -- it is essential that we measure not only the effort that we expend, but also the distance that we get things to move. We need to plan for the measurable results we are trying to achieve. We should evaluate our work by how far things have moved.
It is OK to say, "we pushed and pushed, and found out that the policy on coffee cups won't move" -- and then shift to another project. It is not as helpful to insist that work is being done on the coffee cup problem when no policies are changed and no new tactics are being tried. Lots of effort, with no movement, still doesn't produce any "work."
Finally, two brief technical notes on this already over-extended analogy:

I (rather obviously) recently found myself attempting to install Octopress. Sure, it has great documentation, but some areas were lacking – specifically, initial setup. As someone who has not worked with Ruby before other than a rather limited Windows install for a jekyll project, I had virtually no experience installing Ruby, using RVM, or even playing with RubyGems.
After a couple of hours of trial and error (and Google-searching), I managed to get Octopress running on my local machine. I then proceeded to duplicate my steps on my other dev machine; wonder of wonders, it became a simple five-minute process once I knew what to do.
As I stated earlier, the Octopress documentation doesn't cover everything, so I figured I'd go over my install process in more detail here to help you get started with Octopress and its underlying technologies.
According to the RVM guide, you need a few prerequisites to install Ruby:
1 2
Feel free to disregard some of the packages in the second command if you know better; I haven't verified whether all of them are absolutely necessary.
Also, a quick disclaimer: I am by no means an expert in this. This is the tale of one man's successful fight to install Octopress, and as such, I cannot address all of the variants of installations. I'm not using Github Pages, so I won't specifically address that (the Octopress guide goes over Github Pages integration with much detail). My two installs both used Ubuntu-derived distributions, so I'm guessing these instructions will mostly work for Debian-based systems. No guarantees beyond that. I installed RVM for single-user use; system-wide installation instructions can be found in the RVM guide if you need them.
Installing RVM
RVM is the Ruby Version Manager. It handles the installation and management of multiple Ruby environments, and Octopress was created specifically to be installed into an RVM-controlled environment.
Start off with this command to install single-user RVM (for system-wide installation instructions, see the RVM guide):
Once RVM is installed, tell bash to use it (you only need to do this once):
1 2
To check that it is properly installed, run one (or both) of these commands:
1 2 3 4
Installing OpenSSL & iconv
Now that you've installed RVM, you should use it to install the OpenSSL & iconv packages. They are used within Octopress, so they must be installed and correctly integrated with Ruby.
Run these commands to install the two:
1 2
Installing Ruby
This step is the meat of the process. You must install version
1.9.2 of Ruby. It may take a while to download and install, but after it has finished, you will have a fresh copy of the newest Ruby release installed into RVM.
Once Ruby is installed, ensure RVM has also installed the latest RubyGems:
Finally, tell RVM to use
1.9.2 as the default Ruby and install the Bundler dependency manager:
1 2 3
Getting Started With Octopress
Now that you have the system all configured, you're almost all ready to begin the Octopress setup. Simply change directories to a suitable location for your site repository and then follow the instructions on the Octopress Setup Page. The Octopress docs should be able to answer pretty much any further questions you have about installing, configuring, or blogging with Octopress; they are quite extensive.
I hope this simple guide was helpful. If you have any questions or comments, let me know! Shoot me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com or post in the comments below (assuming I've gotten Disqus to work). Thanks for stopping by.

Setting Goals, Defeating "Writer's Block"
To mend my need to be lazy (which is when I claim writer's block), I have set out goals for myself each day. Right now, I live by minimums, since my kids take up so much time. I write at least 1,000 words a day. I am happy if I get more, but I force myself to write at least that. Sometimes it's tortue, sometimes I think the words are pure crap, but I'm always happy I trudged along a got something done! That's 7,000 words a week, I say to myself, that means I could finish my first draft in a month!
6 comments:
1000 words a day? I'm so impressed.ReplyDelete
Like I said, sometimes it's utter crap, but it gets done.ReplyDelete
Before I had baby #2 I was doing 2,000 in attempts to finish before her due date. Obviously that didn't happen.
I found your blog through Nathan Bransford's place and I can tell from reading only two posts that it will be an invaluable resource for me.ReplyDelete
"Sure, the words may be crappy, but I've found the best way to get past a writing hurdle is to plow right through it if you have to."ReplyDelete
Exactly. Or as my workshop teacher once said, "You can't think your way out of a writing block, you can only write your way out of a thinking block." I'm still more lazy than productive, but at least I've adopted the right view! (Right?? ... OK don't answer that.)
rüya tabirleri I agree . Great!!!ReplyDelete
thanks, very good application
I love it! What a great idea. Simple, fun...I like it!
I set up similar goals when I'm in first draft mode, but I often don't know how to set those goals for the revision process. Just curious, when you revise, do you try to set some type of limit? Like page or time spent?ReplyDelete

Up until quite late in the 19th century, English prisons were places for punishment, not rehabilitation. They were seen as places of exquisite torture where prisoners – men, women, and children – would, for example, have to turn a crank handle a required number of times a day. This handle performed no useful purpose other than to pick up cupfuls of sand and empty them in an enclosed box outside their cell. If the warder felt particularly vindictive they could tighten the screw to make the process more arduous. Hence the universal prison slang term 'screw'.
We might well be heading back into less enlightened times like these if The Sun newspaper has any say in the matter. We could see a big comeback for sewing mail bags and picking oakum and the treadmill, not to mention thumbscrews, the rack, and other choice instruments of torture. Bring back the Inquisition, hanging's too good for them!
With more than 80,000 people locked up in prison we have to ask ourselves the question: with all but a handful coming back out on a street near you soon how do we want them to be when they're released, better or worse? Education and the arts in prison offer a major contribution to their rehabilitation. If we start to limit their scope then the balance between incarceration and rehabilitation shifts dangerously in one direction.
We already have one of the lowest rates of escape in the world. Our prisons are secure. They do what they say on the tin and keep people convicted by the courts in custody. But the other half of the Prison Service mission statement states that we also treat them with humanity and attempt to try and help them lead law-abiding lives when they're released.
The Sun newspaper has set itself the task of leading a campaign to ensure that everyone serving time should suffer as much as possible. It completely misses the point that being sent to prison, losing your freedom, is the punishment, being in prison should be about rehabilitation.
The government recently instigated a new core day in prisons and closed down all activity on Friday afternoons in an attempt to save £17 million. However, this has also meant that prisoners now spend significantly more time in their cells. This neither contributes to their rehabilitation nor helps with a prison's general culture.
For a prison to function well it needs good communication, something which is notoriously lacking at the best of times. There has to be a free flow of information and views between prisoners and staff to combat rumours and to allow open discussion about issues. Keep them bottled up and you create a pressure cooker in already overcrowded prisons.
Two significant ways in which this can be tackled are through prison magazines and radio. Writers in Prison Network has been a major champion for setting up prison magazines. They offer a forum for the exchange of information and the discussion of issues. Governors and staff have the opportunity to explain regime changes or advertise the available activities whether it's the chaplaincy, the gym, healthcare, or education. Prisoners can air their views, and debate contentious matters in the 'public' arena, and staff can put their viewpoints in return in open, balanced coverage which, in the words of the Howard League for Prison Reform, creates "a healthy prison".
With the National Union of Journalists, the Network has pioneered the 'Pathways to Journalism' course which not only produces prison magazines to a professional standard but carries with it qualifications and transferable skills. It contributes both to the prison's health and to prisoners' education.
It's a logical extension of this approach that leads us to prison radio. The very first radio station in prison was at HMYOI Feltham, dating back to 1994. Inspired by this, Mary Stephenson, the writer in residence at HMP Channings Wood helped to set up ConAir around 2000. Like the magazines, the radio stations not only greatly enhanced communication in the prisons but taught valuable skills to prisoners.
Radio in prison offers a superb additional tool both for education and communication. It has the additional advantage over a printed magazine due to the widespread problem with prisoners' literacy – around 60% are below Level 1 literacy. And because it can be piped directly into the cell it's immediate and easily accessed by everyone.
In 2006 the charity Prison Radio Association was launched with Phil Maguire as chief executive. Patrons include Jon Snow and Shami Chakabarti.
Gerry Ryan, the Network's writer in residence at HMP Rye Hill took advantage of the training and support offered by the PRA and started a radio station. Among one of the jewels in its first year's crown was the production of a prison soap which won first prize in the Koestler Awards.
The Prison Radio Association itself was named Best New Charity in 2008. Partly on the strength of this and encouraged by the results of burgeoning prison radio stations – over 60 are now working with the PRA – the Ministry of Justice has been considering for the last year a proposal to set up a national prison radio station beaming programs into the cells of more than 140 prisons.
The technical details of how the station will be broadcast have yet to be explained but with most cells now capable of receiving TV through loop systems on the wings the infrastructure to broadcast directly to prisoners is already in place.
Gerry Ryan and Alistair Fruish, writers in residence at HMP Littlehey, saw the great potential this facility offers and developed a project called Ipad (In-cell Purposeful Activity Development) which proposed using the medium to deliver the creative arts to engage prisoners in recordable purposeful activity while they are locked in their cells.
At HMP Garth the Network has worked with the prison and its education department to create a Media Centre using video, audio, and print to enhance what the regime offers.
These are numerous other initiatives by the Network and a whole range of arts in prison organizations – such as Geese Theatre, Clean Break, Escape Artists, Music in Prisons, and Rideout to name but a few – which demonstrate that the arts in the criminal justice movement are alive and thriving… and in demand by prisons.
Writing in The Guardian (5 November) Lord Ramsbotham, ex-Chief Inspector of Prisons praised the setting up of the Arts Alliance and Arts Forum which created an interface between arts in prisons organizations and government departments. "At last," he said, "the government appears to have recognized the important role that the arts, collectively, have to play in the rehabilitation process by encouraging self-esteem. As triggers, the arts are means to the essential end of reducing reconviction rather than being ends in themselves, but their contribution is invaluable… All the evidence proves that such an approach works."
Barely two weeks later Jack Straw, Minister of Justice, closed down the Comedy School's course at HMP Whitemoor in a knee-jerk reaction to a headline in The Sun. The Comedy School is an outstanding organization with more than a decade of work in prisons with an impeachable reputation. Through comedy they teach literacy, working with others, and learning to be more human, and more compassionate. "I wasn't aware that comedy was a crime," said director Keith Palmer in a recent Radio 4 interview. "I'm trying to understand what other areas of criminal justice The Sun gets to decide?"
This was followed by a Prison Service Order, issued on 6 January warning governors that all activities had to "meet the public acceptability test."
In The Independent on Sunday (25 January) Lord Ramsbotham called the PSO "lunacy". The Ministry of Justice "produced this extraordinary order saying that only activities that would be approved of by the public would be allowed. Who's going to be the judge? It was a gross overreaction. What the voluntary sector does in prisons is work to help people rehabilitate. If you say you really are trying to protect the public, you'll damage that, if you don't allow rehabilitation."
Since the PSO the Ministry of Justice has announced that £2 million, drawn from existing budgets, is to be invested in a national prison radio station.
The Sun was ready with its response, complaining about "pampered lags". Shadow Justice Minister Edward Garnier commented, "It's ridiculous spending this sort of money to pamper prisoners more." One wonders whether he's actually spent any time in a prison recently.
As Juliet Lyon of the Prison Reform Trust says, "Draconian cuts and fear of tabloid headlines will reduce prisons to human warehouses and staff to mere turnkeys. Shocking self-harm and reconviction rates ought to be the public acceptability tests that keep the justice secretary awake at night." (The Independent, 25 January)
The Arts Forum is actively working with the Ministry of Justice and David Hanson MP to try and help them find a more consistent approach to the arts in prison and how it links in with both education and rehabilitation. Tabloid newspapers should not be allowed to set policies, that way madness lies.
As columnist Libby Purves wrote in The Times (26 January), "The track record of UK prison arts and theatre groups is stellar."
Perhaps the last words should go to ex-offender/journalist Erwin James. While serving time at HMP Long Lartin he saw a concert by singer-songwriter John Martyn. "[He] gave the performance of a lifetime. For two hours, in a place where hope was the rarest commodity, he lifted hearts and humanized souls like nothing I had ever experienced. [It] reminded us that we were members of the human race." (The Guardian, July 2008)
The arts work.

If you have to miss work frequently for doctor's appointments, you obviously have some personal things to take care of that are hard to do after business hours. Most employers are understanding when you have medical issues to take care of but will only tolerate so much time off from work without proof of your activities.
Employers should have provided the specific requirements for taking time off for doctor appointments, sick time, and vacation days. You will likely be required to schedule the time off in advance to prevent problems at work in your absence. Some employers will use seniority to schedule missed work hours meaning those who have been employed the longest get to first choose which days they will be off before others with less seniority can schedule time off.
Even if you follow the required protocol for missing work for legitimate reasons, there may still be issues that result when your employer becomes suspicious of your reasons for missing work. While your doctor's appointments will likely occur during business hours, so too will job interviews for new employment. If employers are concerned about your missed work hours, your job stability may be in question.
The best way to handle missing time from work is to document your activities and offer your employee proof when you can. For instance, you will want to request excuse forms from your doctor that prove you were getting medical attention. Doctor's offices likely have to be asked to provide you with the excuse form so don't forget it before leaving the office. If you have to miss work for a doctor's appointment that was scheduled in advance, make a copy of your appointment card or letter that documents your appointment dates and time.
If you have a medical issue that requires multiple doctor appointments, you should check with your employer before setting up your medical appointments to discuss your situation. Assure your employer you will follow protocol for missing work and provide them with the appointment dates and time in advance so there will not be any complications for your need to attend multiple appointments. You may also want to ask your doctor for documentation that proves your reasons for missing work.
If you have had to miss work for medical appointments related to an on the job injury, be sure to consult with an experienced workers compensation attorney to protect your rights. You can schedule a free evaluation of your claim by calling us toll free at 888-799-3918 or by using our online contact form.

Artist Feature
Every week an artist is featured whose single image was published by Der Greif. The Feature shows the image in the original context of the series.
Ewa Doroszenko - Body Editor
May 29, 2019
While the Internet can seem like a place disconnected from the physical world, much of the activity that occurs there deeply affects how people feel outside of it. In the age of social media, where selfhood is effaced by self-promotion, and the glorification of digital beauty undermines the truthfulness of real self-expression, women very often become dissatisfied with what they see in the mirror. Modern technology provides women with tools that allow them to quickly create dream digital image of themselves. Using various beauty applications, they can smooth, contour their faces, whiten their teeth, add a few centimeters of height, enlarge their eyes, choose different mouths, and use many other options. In the series, I tried to challenge our trust of digitally constructed imagery in the context of the post-photographic era. The project was inspired by the failures and bugs in the popular beauty apps, where unnatural bodies get distorted. I used photography as a starting point, alongside digital tools to create an expressive project that is both a critique and a celebration of the ongoing progress in contemporary technology and culture. I employed many methods of creating images: preparing three-dimensional collages constructed from stock images and her own portraits, photographing the scenes, printing in large sizes, physically manipulating prints, and digitally editing selected photos. In the final work, I tried to leave visible traces of digital processing, partly revealing my working methods in order to provoke discussion about contemporary photography. Digitally edited images can serve as aspirational fantasies and occasionally they even can have a positive impact – when they are just effects of joyful entertainment. But can the game in which "your body is a battleground" be truly enjoyable? The phrase from Barbara Kruger's iconic work has just as much resonance today as it did more than a quarter of a century ago.

What March Madness Can Teach The Print Business
Beginning with 16 games a day and culminating in one hard-won matchup, both the intensity and stakes of March Madness are high. What it takes to advance and triumph in that environment has a lot to teach us about how to succeed in the print business:
Inspire Loyal, Vocal Fans
College basketball fans are extra-enthusiastic. They cheer on their team and players all through the games and well beyond graduation. These are exactly the kinds of fans you want for your business – folks who will write rave reviews, turn to you when they have projects, and spread the word about your company. Everything you do, from customer service to product offerings to marketing, should be about cultivating relationships and serving your clients.
Create A Narrative
Turn on the TV and throughout the tournament, you'll hear moving, inspirational stories about the various teams and players. Establishing this connection heightens the experience and engages fans. Help your customers relate to your business by sharing its history and perspective through a company biography. Use that story to influence your communication across all media.
Be Nimble
On the court, players must be able to pivot in traffic and cut on a dime. Over-thinking about how things have been in the past or how you would like them to be prevents you from dealing with what is happening now. Yes, the internet and social media have affected the print business, but they have opened up new doors, too. Focus on how to play the game now and you'll move forward.
Mental Toughness
None of the teams or coaches make it far without being resilient. Despite defeats and setbacks, they keep trying to be the best. Losses and mistakes happen to the best of us, so learn from them and then put them behind you. Occasional failure is all part of the game, and those who keep moving (and have a great support system) will live to play another day.
Remember, you can always count on Eventgroove and our vast selection of print collateral to help you serve your customers and build your business!

SOLVED No web GUI after update
- FOG Version: 1.4.4 (Dev)
- OS: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
- Service Version: n/a
- OS: n/a
I'm not sure whether this should be here or in the dev forum. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I ran "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" on the server. Then I tried to update by manually downloading 1.4.0 (stable) and running install.sh, but this gave me a blank white screen when trying to load the GUI. I then remembered that I had used GIT and the dev branch prior to this to get some things working with Windows 10. I then pulled the latest dev branch and ran install.sh again. This gave me pretty much the same results, blank screen (redirecting to ?node=schema but missing index.php). A couple reboots, Ubuntu updates, and google searches later I'm worried I've totally screwed it up and will need to start fresh. I can recreate the images if I need to, but obviously it would be nice if I could revive this one and not have to start from fresh.
My apache log is giving a PHP error, so maybe there is hope?
[Wed Jul 12 08:12:22.284942 2017] [php7:error] [pid 5337] [client 192.168.8.116:63297] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function lastInsertId() on boolean in /var/www/html/fog/lib/db/pdodb.class.php:443\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/fogcontroller.class.php(527): PDODB->insertId()\n#1 /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/hookmanager.class.php(59): FOGController->save()\n#2 /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/fogpagemanager.class.php(82): HookManager->processEvent('SEARCH_PAGES', Array)\n#3 [internal function]: FOGPageManager->__construct()\n#4 /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/fogbase.class.php(457): ReflectionClass->newInstanceArgs(Array)\n#5 /var/www/html/fog/management/index.php(23): FOGBase::getClass('FOGPageManager')\n#6 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/html/fog/lib/db/pdodb.class.php on line 443
I see two problems.
FOG cannot connect to the database and the Web folder is (possibly) messed up.
Let's fix the database login first, as that is the biggest issue.
Should be pretty detailed. On a default install, the username will be root, no password and host is localhost

@mmcspadden I closed it for you and gave Quazz the bonus points.
Now how do I mark it as solved?
mmcspadden last edited by mmcspadden
Thanks Quazz. I was able to get it going with that documentation. For anyone coming afterwards here were my steps.
- Found that there was no fog user in MYSQL (at least it would not let me drop it)
- Created fog user with a blank password
- Granted permissions to fog db for fog user
- Realized that I had set a root password on mysql
- Found the password in /var/www/fog/lib/fog/Config.class.php
- Copied it over to the proper place in /opt/fog/.fogsettings
- Ran dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.5
- Finally re-ran installfog.sh
I now have a GUI back and am able to image computers.

The forums do not seem to allow me to upload a text file, so I had to do this in a series of screenshots. I went through the log (didn't know that one existed, so thanks), and took a screenshot of anything that errored. I see a couple things that could cause problems, seems like a wrong pass or lack of pass in one section, also complains about not having the PHP module for Apache, although PHP is running later in the log.
What does the error log say in /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs ?
Hi Wayne,
Thanks for the reply. I have used that page as a reference before. Were you referring to the clone directory at /root/fogproject? Or did you mean deleting the www directory info? I deleted the fogproject directory re-cloned with git, and re-ran installfog.sh, but with the same results. The only thing that appears to fail during the setup was backing up the database. See screenshot.
Should I try deleting the web directory? Or is it possible since I attempted to manually install Fog that there is another directory somewhere that is overriding this one?
Wayne Workman last edited by Wayne Workman
I'd just delete the old fog repository on the box (the one you cloned from before during the git process). Then just re-clone the fog repository (stay on the master branch) and install the latest, that should fix things.
This is an older article but is still accurate: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Upgrade_to_trunk
In there, there's two videos to help you along. Again, what I recommend for you is to find the old repo clone and delete it, then just reclone and reinstall.

Earlier in December, we reported that the 12.2-inch Samsung Galaxy Note Pro had been spotted at an event in Korea. But someone reckons we only saw half the story.
Move Player believes the Galaxy Note Pro will, in fact, be available in two sizes: a 12.2-inch variant and a 10.1-inch model.
The smaller offering will supposedly have a 2560 x 1600 display, 3GB of RAM, a 9500mAh battery, and will run a tasty bit of Android 4.4 KitKat. It'll also weigh in at 750 grams.
Like a pro
There's nothing much said about the larger version, though last week we heard that the bigger tablet is set to also have a 2560 x 1600 resolution and will be powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor with 3GB of RAM.
The new source also reckons that that talk of a dual-boot OS for the Note Pro is nonsense - it'll be just Android, no added Windows.
This one's pure rumour for now, though. The original source has since been removed, so either someone got in trouble for leaking the information or it got pulled because someone was playing a (really rubbish) Christmas prank.
Or perhaps someone was even confusing the Galaxy Note Pro with the rumoured Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1.
As for a possible announcement date, we're now being told that it'll either be CES 2014 or MWC 2014. Thanks for clearing that one up for us, guys. Really helpful.
- Can't wait until then? Maybe you'd like to spend that Christmas money on the Galaxy Note 10.1 instead

Ian McGeechan has hailed former British & Irish Lions coach Syd Millar as one of the most influential people in his remarkable career.
Millar, who recently stood down as chairman of the International Rugby Board, was coach of the victorious 1974 Lions tour in South Africa on which McGeechan played.
A quarter of a century later and McGeechan will lead the 2009 Lions into battle against the Springboks but cites that memorable 1974 tour as the time he "grew up".
"Syd Millar was the coach of the Lions back then and the way he handled that group of players over four months was fantastic," McGeechan told BBC Radio Five Live at Wimbledon.
"He made you feel important and took time with you. I felt I really grew up as a person on that tour because of the way I was handled. As a coach, I try to do the same with my players."
McGeechan recently returned from a ten-day fact-finding trip to South Africa but heads out again in August to watch the Springboks in action during this year's Tri Nations. And that will give him a chance to see opposite number Peter de Villiers' men in action under the new experimental law variations.
On his return, the Lions boss will sit down with tour manager Gerald Davies to complete his coaching team before continuing his role as director of rugby at Guinness Premiership champions London Wasps.
"The Lions have allowed me to have the year to prepare and Wasps have been great as well," said McGeechan.
"I can get rid of the non-rugby things to other people at Wasps and concentrate on the playing side with the coaches."
He added: "Some of the new laws are good. The five-metre rule from the scrum gives you a little bit more space and not being able to take the ball back into your own 22 to kick directly into touch is good.
"But I'm not so sure about some of the others. For instance, being able to pull down a maul and not being forced to have the same numbers in a lineout could take away the essence of power in the game and might make it more messy."

Top Three Book Workshop Graduates, Class of 2018 and 2019
[fvplayer src="https://ajharper.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/AJ-testimony-1.mov" width="1280″ height="720″]
I've worked with AJ for nine years, and there is no one else I trust to develop my content. She helps authors write books that people can't stop talking about; books that become cult classics and perennial bestsellers; books that are dog-eared and highlighted and saved forever. We've written four books together (so far). She challenged me to think beyond the books I wanted to write and put my readers first, and then deliver a body of work that serves those readers. She helped me come into my own, hone my voice and truly commit to being an author.
AJ can take a concept and develop it into a book that has a real impact on people's lives. She has an intuitive ability to help authors find and tell their best stories, and to connect those stories to content so that readers and audiences understand their message at a gut level. Beyond art and craft, AJ knows the business inside and out—from self-publishing to trade publishing, and everything in between. She is a rarity in this business; she elevates everyone's game.
-Mike Michalowicz
Author of Profit First, The Pumpkin Plan, Surge and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur
"I've enjoyed the experience of working with Anjanette on several projects now. Anjanette is a pleasure to work with, she pays specific attention to what's required to make the project a success, can adapt her work to really get the 'voice' of the message and knows how to clearly and quickly convey the exact right information in an interesting and thoughtful way that engages the reader. I've recommended Anjanette more times than I can remember because she 'gets it' and is a true pleasure. If Anjanette was a book – she would top my 'must Read' list."
~David Tyreman
Author of World Famous
In my 10 years of working with authors, there is NO ONE I trust more to help with their success other than AJ Harper.
Book consultants are a dime a dozen these days and unfortunately, many are offering questionable advice that results in few book sales and diminished dreams. AJ Harper is a rare gem who doesn't know any other way to show up other than striving for excellence in all areas of authorship and publishing.
AJ takes every client, every conversation with a prospect, and every action in a deeply personal way. Her passion to get real results is what enables her clients to sell tens of thousands of copies of their books, profit and dominate in their industry. Not only does she have a remarkable education in the writing and publishing world, but she also has a killer instinct for marketing and brand development.
The icing on the cake is she is a total sweetheart and highly lovable. Whether you are an author, a potential strategic partner, or someone interested in getting into this field…connect with AJ. Find a way to get on her calendar. You will be very glad you did!
~Amber Vilhauer
Websites, Social Media, Copywriting, Coaching
AJ Harper loves books. She loves to write them, and has written more than I can count. Even more importantly, she loves to read books. And this is what makes her an outstanding coach for writers. If you treasure books as much as AJ, and want to write a book that others will treasure, then she's the coach for you. If you want to just get a book "out there" so you can say you're an author, if you don't intend to move people to action, help them change their lives or the world, then don't even think about working with her. Because AJ is passionate about great books. Books that mold and shape our thinking, our attitudes, and our actions. And she's really good at helping you make your message clear and reflect who you really are.
I had the privilege of working with AJ at the Perennial Best Seller Book Retreat. Since then, we've been working together to outline and flesh out my book. AJ took my passionate and somewhat unfocused message, and has helped me make it clear. She's honest as she reviews your work, pushes you to do more than you thought you could, and encourages you every step of the way. And she knows her stuff. You can tell in the first five minutes of talking with her.
So if you want to find your groove as an author so you can change the world with your book, work with AJ Harper.

DENSO Announces Mass Expansion
July 2, 2014—DENSO Corp. announced Tuesday it would expand its presence in Mexico in 2015–16 to increase parts production for its U.S. and South American customers.
The company will expand its existing plant in Apodaca, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, to increase transmission components production for its U.S. customers. The plant, which initially opened in 1996, will be expanded by more than 8,800 square feet and will add 500 more jobs in the next four years. Parts production will begin in December of 2015.
HAMANAKODENSO Co., a DENSO Group company, will also add a new facility in Salina Victoria City, Mexico, to produce solenoids for engine and airflow control units for both U.S. and South American customers. The new facility will employ around 340 people by 2018. Construction will begin in January with parts production starting around August of 2016.
Combined, the two additions represent an $89.6 million investment. The growth is part of the company's plan to invest nearly $1 billion in North America, $750 million of which will go to expansion in the U.S.

Ichirou Satou is an ordinary high school student who pretended that he was a hero by the name of "Maryuuin Kouga" back in middle school, which led to others frequently bullying him. Now that he has left this embarrassing phase behind, he does his best to avoid standing out and live a peaceful life, although he feels the world has become quite dull. But when he makes his way back to school one night to grab a textbook he left in class, he runs into a strange girl wearing a costume.
This girl, Ryouko Satou, happens to be his classmate and is affected by the exact same condition that he once had, holding on to a delusion that she is someone else and dressing up to reflect this. The very next day, Ichirou is asked by his teacher to become friends with Ryouko, to which he adamantly refuses, unwilling to be reminded of his own history. When he sees that she is being bullied just as he once was, however, the boy makes it his responsibility to take care of her and break her free from that which what once plagued him—the perfect job for Maryuuin Kouga.
