Ever noticed how vintage bicycles and cool e-bikes are more and more used as advertising signs in front of cafes, bakeries, fashion shops and even in fancy company office spaces to create a cool, sustainable, trustworthy and "crafted" image?
With Urban Drivestyle Themed Ebikes, you can take this effect even further: Get your own company electric bike that will not only look great in front of your venue, but also is a very useful, valuable and ready to go tool to increase the productivity of your company or shop!
How often do you send employees to the post office? The tax advisor? To get Sushi for that important business guest? To buy coffee? To get that urgent flyer from the print shop? Send them with your own, branded electric bike!
Imagine you can do ALL that with an electric bike that only costs 25 Cents to charge and that will reduce the time to run errands by over 60 % compared to using the car. And in the same time will be a great branding for your company at ZERO cost.
The reason why bicycles are used so often as advertising displays is not only the fact that bicycles transport a very positive and sustainable image. They can actually legally be parked outside your office or shop at no cost and do not require a permit or tax on public space. Free advertising space for you!
In addition to that, it can be relocated easily to places where you may get even more attention than in front your door!
Because UNI Moke is a lot more than just a bike: It turns heads where ever you appear, it will work for you as your personal cargo- and courier bike and it will pay itself by just being parked visibly on the road.
And hey: You can even bring your kids to school on it (just don't tell the tax office...)!
Are you a freelancer, copyrighter, photograph, designer, blogger, youtuber and you work in an home office?
Then your branded company bike can provide JUST the visibility you need without even having a actual shop, office or showroom! Just park it in front of the coolest cafe in town...
Well, of course you can buy a branded Theme Bike for you company and deduct the costs from your taxes. But there is more: Many cities even pay subsidies for the implementation of cargo and utility bikes to reduce car traffic!

How To Maintain A Healthy Pond
By Peter V. Fossel
It might be pushing things to call our farm pond a "pond," because you can't actually see much water in summer. What you see instead is algae, weeds, and bullfrog eyes.
"You don't have a pond, you have a wetland," says Fred Snyder, district specialist with the Ohio State University extension service, "and if that works for you, you're in business."
It doesn't work for many people, however, so Snyder's services are highly sought after by those who want their ponds "fixed."
"The main problems ponds have are too many weeds, too much algae, and not enough oxygen in summertime," he says. Depleted oxygen causes fish to die.
To keep a pond healthy, you've got to do several things, he says. The first is to reduce weed growth by eliminating nutrient sources such as lawn or farm fertilizer, livestock manure, or septic tank leachate (liquid produced by water trickling through the waste).
"Pond weeds are a natural process, but we speed it up with fertilizer runoff," he explains.
"Autumn leaves are a double-whammy if you have trees around the pond," he says. Falling leaves contain 60 percent of the nutrients a tree takes in during a year, he explains, so those nutrients now feed pond vegetation. In decomposing, leaves also take up dissolved oxygen, thus competing with fish for the oxygen supply. This results in more nutrients to feed even more pond weeds.
"It's a natural ecosystem," Snyder says. "Mother Nature wants plants in a pond. People don't. There's been a change in our mindset since the days of bullfrogs on lily pads. Now people want ponds to be like a swimming pool, with crystal clear water full of 5-pound bass. But you can't have both."
To eliminate the shallow water where weeds thrive, a pond should have relatively steep sides and good depth. A good slope is 1 foot down to every 3 feet across, and Snyder recommends that 25 percent of the pond be more than 8 feet deep - both for fish habitat and weed reduction.
Oxygen depletion causes fish kills in summer because oxygen is less soluble in warm water, which is exactly when fish are most active and need more oxygen.
"Learn to spot the problem," Snyder says, "because if it's serious, it's immediate, and you have to act. You don't have time to price-shop for an aerator."

@INPROCEEDINGS{Shivers88controlflow, author = {Olin Shivers}, title = {Control Flow Analysis in Scheme}, booktitle = {}, year = {1988}, pages = {164--174}}
Traditional flow analysis techniques, such as the ones typically employed by optimising Fortran compilers, do not work for Scheme-like languages. This paper presents a flow analysis technique- control flow analysis- which is applicable to Scheme-like languages. As a demonstration application, the information gathered by control flow analysis is used to per-form a traditional flow analysis problem, induction variable elimination. Extensions and limitations are discussed. The techniques presented in this paper are backed up by working code. They are applicable not only to Scheme, but also to related languages, such as Common Lisp and ML. 1 The Task Flow analysis is a traditional optimising compiler technique for determining useful information about a program at compile time. Flow analysis determines path invariant facts about points in a program. A flow analysis problem is a question of the form: "What is true at a given point p in my program, in-dependent of the execution path taken to p from the start of the program?" Example domains of interest might be the following: l Range analysis: What is the range of values that a given reference to an integer variable is constrained to he within? Range analysis can be used, for instance, to do array bounds checking at compile time, l Loop invariant detection: Do all possible prior assign-ments to a given variable reference lie outside its contain-ing loop? Over the last thirty years, standard techniques have been de-veloped to answer these questions for the standard imperative, Algol-like languages (e.g., Pascal, C, Ada, Bliss, and chiefly Permission to copy without fee all or part of this material is granted provided that the copies are not made or distributed for direct commercial advantage, the ACM copyright notice and the title of the publication and its date appear, and notice is given that copying is by permission of the Association for

2018 Jeep Wrangler Confidently Drives a Tightrope
Modern and capable JL gets a turbo-four with 48 volts and a diesel in '19 to help meet 2025 CAFE targets
LOS ANGELES, California — Jeep looks to keep all but its most jaded hardcore off-road enthusiasts satisfied while widening the Wrangler's mainstream appeal with modern updates and 200 pounds-worth of weight-saving aluminum in the JL, the new-for-2018 version of its World War II icon. The 2018 Jeep Wrangler goes on sale in January with its familiar 3.6-liter V-6 and an optional 2.0-liter turbo-four and a 48-volt "light hybrid" system. A 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V-6 will be available a year later.
Hinges are still exposed outside the sheetmetal and the windshield is raked back more steeply than in any previous Wrangler derivative, contributing to aerodynamic tweaks that cleaned up the coefficient of drag, though the windshield can easily be unlocked and folded forward onto the hood—or detached completely by removing just two bolts. The seven-slat grille is redesigned to pay homage to the CJ Wrangler's, with daytime running lights in the front fenders and the "Jeep" name badge "back on the sides, where God intended it to be," according to the brand's design chief, Mark Allen.
The center high-mounted stoplight (CHMSL) on top of the spare tire in back adjusts up and down for different-sized aftermarket tires, and a rear backup camera placed in the center of the spare stays in place—the owner removes a black clip around the lens in order to remove the spare. Blind spot monitor cameras are mounted on the outer edges of the square taillamps.
Construction is still body-on-frame, and the "sport bar"—don't call it a "roll bar"—is no longer covered, but rather is aluminum, and painted the same color as the body. It connects the a-pillars together, and the a-pillars to b-pillars. Body panels all are aluminum, save for the rear quarter-panels, b-pillars, and magnesium swing-gate. The doors shut themselves for the first time in a traditional Jeep.
"Donut" doors are available on softtop models. They come with a filler plug for cold weather and security, and require a drop-in clear plastic cassette, which is a sort of modern side-curtain, because this optional door does not allow for roll-up glass. Distinctive scallops in the front fenders lead to a profile with a fairly subtle bone line from the top of the front doors down to the lower body. Designers moved the JL's beltline lower on the body, while the windshield is 1.5-inches taller than the JK's.
The two-door will be available in Sport, Sport S and Rubicon trim, while the four-door Unlimited adds a Sahara variant. Softtop Unlimiteds come with the Sky One-Touch power-folding top, and all ragtops are available in vinyl or premium canvas. The rear of the sport bar on Unlimiteds rakes downward after the c-pillar to mount to the frame before it reaches the d-pillar point.
Hardtops use canards to remove rear side windows and rear windows instead of snaps, latches, or Velcro, which Jeep notes, wears out. One of the two hardtops available for Unlimited adds a power-folding soft panoramic sunroof, and the removable hardtop panels are lighter than before. The idea is that no matter which top you choose, opening it to the outdoors is no longer part of the Jeep Wrangler's toughness.
As for Moab-crushing hardware, the 2018 Wrangler comes with either the Command-Trac or the Rock-Trac four-wheel-drive system, next-generation Dana axles, a Selec-Trac full-time two-speed transfer case, Tru-Lock electric axle lockers front and rear, and a Trac-Lok limited slip differential. And the hood is flat as possible.
For the purists' Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, there are vents in the hood, higher flat fenders compared with other Wrangler JLs and 33-inch outer-diameter tires, with enough clearance for 35-inch aftermarket rubber. And yes, across the Jeep Wrangler board, whether two-door or Unlimited, there still is no independent front suspension.
Wheelbase is up 1.4 inches in the two-door JL Wrangler and 2.4 inches in the Unlimited four-door in addition to a 0.1-inch longer overhang, for a 1.5-inch and 2.5-inch overall length increase total, respectively. Jeep says that wider front and rear tracks, a one-foot-narrower turning radius, and electro-hydraulic power steering makes the JL Wrangler more comfortable and a better handler on-road, while its off-road capabilities are even higher than the JK's.
The launch engine is the familiar 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6, rated 280 horsepower and 260 pound-feet in the JL, with port-injection and a standard start/stop system. Customers have a choice of an eight-speed automatic or a six-speed manual, the latter with throws shortened by about 50 percent and, Jeep says, far less shake and wiggle than the JK's manual.
Some time after launch, Jeep will add a version of the 2.0-liter turbo-four along with a 48-volt system, making it the "mild hybrid" powertrain in a Fiat Chrysler product. The gas direct-injection I-4 features a twin-scroll turbo for minimal lag and is rated at 265 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. While you might argue the cylinder count hearkens back to the original Jeep's WWII roots, the engine will be available only with an eight-speed automatic. Hard-core off-roaders who prefer three pedals must choose the V-6.
Fiat Chrysler's 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V-6, which makes 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque in the Jeep Grand Cherokee, will be added to the JL lineup some time in the 2019 model year.
A full-time transfer case with 4Hi, 2Hi, 2Lo and 4Lo will be available on the JL Sahara, while the Rubicon gets the next-generation Dana 44 axles with front- and rear-lockers.
Interior trims range from the basic rugged look of the Heritage, through the Redical interior with its red dashboard matching the tow hooks, to Grillz and its authentic plated silver-colored metal on up to the Premium interior, which offers hand-wrapped leathers and vinyls. All these interiors come with clean and simple, round gauges and rubber over molded touch points, including the surround for the radio head unit. Nevertheless, there's available UConnect with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the choice of 5.0-, 7.0- and 8.4-inch touchscreens.
If this long list of cool features and specs isn't enough to confuse you, be aware that there is a 2018 model-year edition of the outgoing Jeep Wrangler JK being built in Toledo, Ohio, alongside the all-new 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL, so you might have to ask your Jeep dealer for it by name, beginning in January.

According to DCA blue print, you need to use CA certificate to replace both ESX and vCenter.
I follow this help document to setup certificate for vCenter and ESX. I do encounter quite bit tricks which I took hours working on resolving issues. I would like to share it with everyone so you can save your time.
First of all, download and install correct version of Openssl and VC++.
You can find those applications at here.
I did my test in Windows 2008 R2 SP1 server. I ran into issue with 64bit of Openssl with 32bit, I have no issue. So Please make sure you install the right version.
- You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) before installing OpenSSL.
To download this package, see http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/confirmation.aspx?familyId=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf&displayLang=en.
- You must also download and install Win32 OpenSSL v0.9.8r.
To download this package, see http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html.
All what you need to do is to go to command window and run command as vmware suggest.
This is the first problem I encounter. I was looking for openssl.cnf all over the place.
Actually, this is windows version. so there is no cnf. It's openssl.cfg in the bin folder.
so what you need to do is to use this command.
All right. Finally, we got request file rui.csr. It's time to use your AD CA to generate cer file. All what you need to do is to login in your CA with valid credential (you may want to login in with Enterprise Admin instead of domain admin depends on how you setup domain).
Launch IE and type http://localhost/certsrv
Click Request Certificate
Click Advanced Certificate request
Click Submit a certificate request by using a base 64 encoded….
then, you rui.crt which you generated before with notepad and paste all content
Make sure it's for web server, then, submit.
Once you submit, you need to click Base 64 encoded and click download certificate
Save the file and rename it as rui.crt
and copy it to c:\openssl\bin folder
run this command to generate certificate.
Once it's done, you should have 4 files.
Upload files to ESX(i) server
This is a tricky thing to do. The best way I found to do this job is:
Use winscp to upload to vMA (/home/vi-admin)
connect vMA to host
Use vifp command to replace host server ssl_cert and ssl_key
Check your certificate file before you start
This is very important step. For some reason, when you use vifp to upload file, it actually modify file a little bit. It happens on ESXi 4.1U1.
so you need to go to /etc/vmware/ssl and open rui.crt file.
If you see following file like this.
That is wrong. There should be any "^M" in the crt. so you need to manually remove those characters.
Otherwise, you may see this error if you tail vpxa.log (/var/log/vmware/vpx)
You can run following command to get rid of ^M.
tr -d '\r' < /etc/vmware/ssl/rui.crt > /etc/vmware/ssl/rui-fixed.crt
mv /etc/vmware/ssl/rui-fixed.crt /etc/vmware/ssl/rui.crt
Restart vpxa agent.
for ESX(i), you need to go to DCUI and restart agent
for ESX, you need to run service vmware-vpxa restart
vCenter configuration:
You need to add root certificate on vCenter and vClient.
You need to remove host and re-add host back to vCenter
You shouldn't encounter any certificate question.
For vCenter:
After you generate rui.crt, just copy all files to
C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL

The markets have opened weaker this morning on another round of worries about the Greek situation. If I were Germany, I'd be having concerns right now as well. Every effort to cut spending has been met with massive demonstrations in Greece. I'm not sure if the people of Greece grasp the gravity of the situation. This sounds like the Lehman or AIG CEO's talking on CNBC the day before their collapse that "we'll be fine" -- all is not well in Europe and that should have us all on guard right now.
The market was also caught off-guard by the surprising jump in initial jobless claims. The four-week moving average is back over 470k and is at it's highest level in 3 months. I found it particularly unsettling that the Labor Department went back to the "backlog of claims" well. This is what was to have allegedly sparked the spike in claims in January, but when the backlog disappeared the markets cheered the LARGEST DROP IN WEEKLY CLAIMS, blah, blah... Now apparently the backlog of claims is back this time caused by Northeast snowstorms.
I don't buy those excuses, I sense that companies held onto employees into 2010 in the hopes that things would improve. Since business has not picked up for many firms they are looking to trim more jobs. All of the talk of "recovery" in the jobs market has been mostly tied to benefits expiration (the jobless suddenly disappear when they no longer receive benefits) and stimulative spending not organic economic growth.
I think the markets are also a little concerned with yesterday's SEC ruling to curtail short-selling efforts by instituting a new rule - once a stock falls 10% from the prior close, you can only short a stock at a price above the best bid. So if a $10 stock falls to $9 you can't short the stock at $9 you have to short the stock at $9.01. This is designed to slow rapid declines in stock prices but ultimately it feels like the game is rigged. What if a stock goes up from $10 to $11 shouldn't we have a similar rule in place to limit the stock from shooting to the moon? If we limited purchase to being below the highest sell offer at least it would feel like the market was legitimate. By limiting downside with no upside caps, it feels like the market is a one way bet and that's not healthy for the markets.
Six hours of political posturing on the TV today coupled with miserable weather in the Northeast should make this a fairly slow trading day.

Life has its ups and downs, and sometimes you find yourself in a desert place. Sometimes, you have to make difficult choices in life; other times, life makes difficult choices for you. The road that you were on (though it seemed as if it were going very well) does not always end up where you thought it would take you. There are trials and tribulations, and we rarely escape them unscathed. If you have walked down the road of life for any time, you have experienced desert places. You might be traveling through one now. Take heart; for, even though it may be a miserable time for you, there can be some amazing events that take place. When you pass through the desert place and move on to better pastures, it is often the events in the desert that makes you into the person that God wants you to be. Here are three benefits of being in a desert place.
Jesus is there.
Verse 13 says, "When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities." Notice that Jesus was already there, and the people followed him. During this time in the desert, are you following Christ? Do you not think that he knows the reason for you being out in the desert? He went out into the desert, and it is your responsibility to follow him. When I think about times in life when things are going well, I compare them to a city. A city is a place where you go to acquire things. The latest in clothing, fads, and gadgets can be found in cities. In fact, often times we get enamoured with all of the glamour and flashing lights of the city. We might have a desire to follow after Christ, but it can be difficult when there are so many distractions. No matter what, when you find yourself in the desert place, it makes it so much easier to keep your eyes on Christ. Remember that he is out in the desert with you. Savour this time that you get to spend learning of him. Enjoy the memories that are made of Him helping you along. Spend time in prayer with him. While there are so many less distractions, get to know him more while you are traveling through the desert place. Yes, desert places can be hard, but Jesus is there with you! Romans 8:35;39 says, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Healing is there.
Verse 14 says, "And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick." Life tends to bring injuries. They come in all sorts and sizes. It may be a disease or injury caused by an accident or foolishness. Some injuries cannot be treated by medicine. A broken soul is a hard thing to mend. Whatever the case, healing is needed. Sometimes it cannot be found in any other place but the desert. When all distractions are gone and our focus is placed upon Christ, then we can have healing. Healing is enabled because that desert place gives us the space and time needed to reflect upon how the injury was obtained. It may cause us to take a clear inward look. Injures are not all the same, and the remedy is not going to be the same either. Healing may be found through repentance. We may realize as an individual that we may have strayed from God's path for us because of our own pride and sinful way. When we repent of that, healing can begin. Sometimes we are hurt by others, and we must forgive that injury in order to begin to heal. Your situation may be different than those mentioned here. Whatever it is, Jesus has compassion and wants to heal you! Take the time that you spend in the desert and ask him to bring healing. Ask Him to show you how to get things right with God or man. The desert place has its own unique challenges, but you need to be whole in order to make it through it and go on for the Lord. Take the time to get well. Jesus want's you to be whole. Matthew 11:28-30 says, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Nourishment is there.
Verse 20 says, "And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full." The miracle of the feeding of the five thousand was not next to an all you can eat buffet in the city. It was out in the desert. Nourishment is more than necessary in the desert place: it's miraculous. The greatest amount of growth in my life has always been in the desert place. It is there that I have wholly depended upon the Lord to sustain me. For example, there have been times that I have come home and told my wife to feed just the kids because I am too full for supper. Now, my wife is an awesome cook! Her food is delicious! The problem was not my wife's cooking; the problem was I was too full to eat: I had no appetite. Sometimes, it is that way in our lives. We are so full of the things in this world that we have no appetite for the things of God. Once we are removed from those distractions and our appetite is tuned to the things of God, we are then at a place to receive the things of God. Not only will he feed you, but he will fill you! Matthew 5:6 says, "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled."
In life, the desert place is inevitable. Many heroes of the faith wandered in the desert (Abraham, Moses, David, etc.). Though at the time it may seem like it is a horrible place to be, look past your current circumstances and know that God has brought you there. You can find Jesus there; He will heal you and feed you. When your time in the desert is over, you will be a stronger person than when you went into the desert. I once heard two men talking about their job status. One remarked to the other who had lost his job, "You have lost all of your security." His friend wisely replied, "Not all of my security is gone: I still have God." That is usually why God brings us into the desert place: to help us find our security in nothing else but him.

Love Note (ラブ・ノート Rabu Nōto) is the Stand of Joe Kujo (空条 ジョー), featured in an interview[1] with Hirohiko Araki on a segment of Japanese TV Program Tameike Now, titled I Want to Receive the World's Best "JoJo's Bizarre" Lessons (「世界一受けたい!!「ジョジョの奇妙な…」授業」).
The Stand was created by Araki alongside its user, who is presented as the hypothetical son of Jotaro Kujo and Shoko NakagawaW. Its name and appearance are inspired by the Death NoteW from the series of the same name.
Love Note takes the form of a book with the head of Shoko Nakagawa's cat, Mamitas, protruding from the top. Each page has a red heart on the top outmost corner.
Till Death Do Us Part: The names of those written in Love Note are bound to be married, regardless of their true feelings. As a result, victims of the Stand will often resort to killing each other to be free of the ability, ultimately making the book's nature similar to its namesake.
The user is comparable to CupidW, but prone to causing trouble.

That's the good stuff:
We've said it before and we'll continue banging that drum until someone proves us wrong: The Brits just know how to do outerwear. Of course, you pose anyone on the English coastline in April and you're likely to give them a crash course in How to Dress for the Weather, but still, this is extremely stylish and looks fantastic in this setting. We question the polka dot hose and velvet sandals, because they both kind of pull focus here. On the other hand, they sort of play into the retro look of the film she's promoting. She's one of those English actresses who really look great in period costumes, so it makes a little sense that she'd bring some of that to her promotional style.

"By the way, we LOVED Maui Revealed. We have been to Maui before, without the book and this trip was superior BY FAR largely because of the info we got from Maui Revealed. There were so many great tips on places to eat, things to do, etc. This time when we did the road to Hana. We went to less crowded falls, stopped at beautiful lookouts, had amazing banana bread, etc. It is an amazing resource."

Jean-Georges Vongerichten's Perry St in the West Village is a go-to: it's the perfect place to discuss strategic matters, and the French-fusion food – rice cracker-encrusted tuna, roasted butternut squash soup, kale salad – is spectacular. The wine list is also impressive; I order a Puligny-Montrachet for special occasions. 176 Perry St, NY 10014 (perrystrestaurant.com).
Arnold Donald, president and CEO of Carnival Corporation, which owns Cunard and P&O
When we were looking for a partner for our luxury Seabourn line, we met with Thomas Keller at his three-Michelin-starred Per Se. His signature dish, Oysters and Pearls, sold us. If I'm entertaining, I'll go to Tao: the cocktails and pan-Asian cuisine – chicken gyoza, roasted shishito peppers with yuzu sauce – make for a festive night.

For internal lunches, I like the private rooms at Patroon, where the Nantucket Bay scallops and Brussels sprouts have always been good. And I've had some very productive lunches at the Dining Club at The Rainbow Room, at the Top of the Rock: the portions are just right, everything is incredibly fresh and the setting is sublime.

I stay at The Mercer when I'm in the city, eat at The Mercer Kitchen and hold meetings in the lounge: recently, I caught up with Marcel Wanders over dinner.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns, north of the city, is unbelievable: the freshness, the effort that goes into the menus and its care of the environment.

Drafting careers
Great drafting is hugely important at Holmes Consulting. The drafting team plays a pivotal role in project teams, not just drawing, but making a strong contribution to the way we think about and design structures. Our drafters aren't hidden away in a dark corner, they're up on the front line, often contributing at client meetings and working directly with project stakeholders in partner organisations. It's busy, interesting work with a premium on creativity and attention to detail.
We were early adopters of Revit, and continue to lead the way in maximising its potential. We're also right at forefront of BIM, doing great modelling work using emerging technology – including some of our own software and systems. Whatever the technology, we're always looking for new ways to make drafting more efficient and effective.
To show you what it's like to draft day-to-day at Holmes Consulting, we've put together a short video starring some of our drafting team.
If you think that this sounds like a place that you'd fit into, you might also like to take a look at the longer director's cut, which includes information about the Christchurch rebuild and the great drafting work we've done down there.

Izzy enjoyed a yummy bottle of barium for lunch today. Actually, I'm pretty sure it wasn't yummy at all, so it's a good thing she's not picky. Like her mama, if you give her food, she will eat it. We went to Cook Children's Hospital today for her second swallow function study. They put Izzy in a little chair that looks like a car seat, next to a big x-ray machine. Then we fed her barium of different consistencies and watched her swallow on a tv screen. We've been thickening her milk to nectar consistency with no problems, so we started with half-nectar consistency, and she swallowed perfectly without any problems. The speech therapist then switched to a bottle without any thickener, and she and the doctor in the room both said they could see laryngeal penetration with almost every swallow. Griff and I didn't see it. She even showed us the tape three times after the study, and we finally just said we could see it. Kind of like when the doctor pointed out all the body parts of the babies when I had sonograms done..."Oh yeah, I see it now," even though all I really saw was a blob. Anywho...they are the experts so we trust what they see. Izzy did not aspirate on the thin liquid, but the therapist guessed that if Izzy were to continue drinking it, she probably would. They only look at 20 swallows of each consistency to limit the radiation exposure. So, we're now thickening her milk to half-nectar because of her "risk of aspirating." We'll talk with Dr. Worsley and schedule yet another swallow study in 4-6 months. The speech therapist said she wasn't really surprised. Apparently many babies aren't able to "skip steps" going from full-nectar to no nectar. This isn't exactly the result we were looking for, but it is improvement. And as much as we hate the thickener, it is keeping her from a g-button, so we will gladly continue it.
BTW - Izzy is sporting a bow from Emily and a pacifier from Hadley in the pics. Thanks, girls!!! Oh, and I couldn't resist the funny face pic.

[This is the second of a series of reports documenting the control and devastation of water sources by Israel as a tool of oppression.]
Israel is escalating its war on water in the South Hebron Hills, demolishing wells, ripping out kilometres of pipeline and even confiscating trucks carrying emergency water tanks to parched villages.
In the sweltering month of July, five demolitions targeting water infrastructure were carried out, leaving Palestinian farming villages without access to water.
The latest took place on Wednesday July 31, when the Israeli Civil Administration – the body that governs Area C in the West Bank – cut pipes supplying water to houses and farmland in the area of al-Jaway near At-Tuwani.
Tariq Hathaleen, a local activist from the South Hebron Hills, says that the number of demolitions on water sources has "more than doubled," this year compared to previous years.
He told ISM: "Now in the summer it sounds like the Civil Administration has a plan to restrict Palestinian access to water in the South Hebron Hills, in Area C in general, and that's actually to put more pressure on those people to move them away from those villages.
"Because the Civil Administration don't have a direct excuse to expel those people from their land but the plan is to put more pressure to make them leave by cutting their water sources."
On July 4, bulldozers destroyed three water wells outside the town of Dkeika, a day after they came to the same area and uprooted over 500 olive trees.
The destruction of the wells and trees have affected around 1,200 people, 60 per cent of them registered as refugees. according to the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
Four water cisterns were also destroyed on July 24 in a park between the villages of Umm al-Kheir and Umm Daraj
"I know the reality of these people," Tariq, who was at the demolition, adds. "I call them the enemies of life and they prove this by cutting trees, by cutting water pipes, by cutting the lives of people."
The Good Shepherd Collective, a group that advocates human rights predominantly in the South Hebron Hills, puts the escalation of demolitions down to the actions of far-right settler NGO Regavim.
Regavim, which receives Israeli tax-payers money and has charitable status, spies on Palestinian communities, looking out for structures built without a permit and reporting them to the ICA. They then speed up demolition cases in the courts through petitions.
Their devastating impact can be seen by the steep rise in demolitions in the South Hebron Hills; 65 structures have been bulldozed or confiscated so far this year, compared to 23 structures in the same period last year, according to OCHA.
"For anyone who still has qualms about the placement of blame on the state or Civil Administration for the act of demolitions, the message of these continued demolitions in natural areas should serve as a clarifying message," the Good Shepherd Collective said.
"The state, the settlers and the organizations like Regavim that push forward the destruction of these areas, structures and resources for Palestinians are not motivated by the preservation of humanitarian rights, environmental laws, or the protection of the natural environment."
The series of attacks on water sources in July comes after Israel ripped out a huge pipe network earlier this year that had supplied 12 Palestinian towns in the South Hebron Hills with running water.
The pipes were built in secret and took four months to install. But just six months later, Israel destroyed them, cutting the 20km lifeline.
The 12 villages have had to return to the old method of accessing water – by transporting tanks on tractors along poor roads which wears down the tyres and wastes precious work days.
Transporting water in this way adds to the economic burden of the area's small villages, costing 30 Israeli shekels for one cubic metre. In contrast Israelis pay just 8 Israeli shekels per cubic metre.
And even the trucks are not safe from Israel's war on water; on July 15, 18 water tanks were confiscated by Israeli soldiers. In the same raid, several thousand dollars of water pipeline and drilling equipment to install the pipes were also taken.
"The feeling is hard to accept, the fact that those people, those humans out of blood and flesh agree on themselves to cut other peoples' lives by cutting the water," Tariq tells ISM.
"It's far from doing something legal. There's no law in the world that says you can cut water from humans and forbid him from having water access. Its insane."
The South Hebron Hills is in Area C of the West Bank which means it is under full Israeli control. Palestinians in this region are denied building permits even to install water pipelines or wells, and are not allowed to hook up to the water network that Israel has laid across Palestinian land to supply illegal settlements.
As a result, villages in the area are subject to unrelenting attacks on not only their water sources but farmland and homes.

While the 2014 launched mobile banking app promised convenience, today, the next gen app promises to render enhanced customer experience and security.

Being Self Aware
We had trouble once with a client's community manager who refused to accept her behavior was hurting the community (or members had an issue with her).
So we issued a survey to members gathering feedback. The results were illuminating (for us and her).
In your next community survey, ask members for feedback about yourself and your community team.
Make sure its anonymous (and members know it's anonymous).
What do they like about how you engage with members?
What do they not like?
How do they perceive you?
Do they believe you care about them and put them first? Or are you just protecting the brand and trying to get them to go away?
If the answers cause you to reflect upon how you behave in your community, you've done the survey well.

Martial Beat Controller Set Plus Martial Beat 2 from Konami on Playstation
View Back Of Case
View Screen Shots
Sony's answer to Samba De Amigo with high tempo soundtrack (including of course Tubthumping) but instead of using maracas, players attach sensors to their wrists and ankles. The player then follows the martial moves of their on screen persona gaining points for successfully landing a kick or punch at the correct time. There is also a visual reward for landing the moves on time such as being able to see a fireball travel across the screen. Done with intent the techniques give a good work out and the graphics are nicely done set in stereotypical Chinese situations. Rumours are there's an unlockable Lupin song in there too for when you're Chumbawhamba-ed out.
Please click here to view the actual item....
Further information regarding Martial Beat Controller Set Plus Martial Beat 2 is as follows:-
Second hand. Slight outer box scuffing on edges. The controller set includes part one of the game, plus the set's registration cards and leaflet. Batteries remaining longevity has not been tested. Genki Video Games will not be held responsible for the damage to vases etc. from over-zealous, budding Jackie Chan's. We can put label stickers on the controls if required (ie left leg, right hand) as they are marked in Japanese kanji. Martial Beat 2 is brand new.

Learn to Say "No"
People often agonise over saying "No" to others about things they are pressured into doing that they don't really want to do.

Bush's Acceptance Speech
The speech was obviously filled with lots of thanks, etc., etc. But the on thing that stuck out was the reference to reforming the tax code. I don't know what he has in mind, but (aside from Terrorism and Congressional Term Limits) I think simplifying our tax code holds amazing potential for good. Imagine the increase in productivity if individuals and businesses no longer had to keep such close track of everything. If we could just make it simple enough that a dope like me could do it with my eyes closed I really think we'd see some solid and tangible benefits. Here's hoping.

Hide Forgot
Description of problem: the IS (is-latin1) keymap is not loaded in text mode
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC5 test3
How reproducible:
Every time
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot FC5 test3 boot.iso.
2. Select Icelandic and the Icelandic keymap.
3. Select a NFS server for install.
Actual results:
The US keymap is still in use untill the GUI kicks in.
Expected results:
The Icelandic keymap should be activated
Additional info:
On the US keymap, the upper left hand key (labled with ~ and ` on a US qwerty
keyboard) will type `~ (unshifted then shifted). How should that key behave on
the Icelandic map? Or, is there a better test I could be using to see if the US
or Icelandic map is loaded?
The best test I can think of is that Shift-7 should give the / character.
The key on the right of the "." key (where the / is on US keyboards is I think)
should give the "þ" character.
Also, you can look at:
This was fixed posted FC5 Test 3. I've verified that the Icelandic map is
loaded during the first stage of the installation process (e.g., when you select
NFS for the installation source).
One thing that I have noticed is that the screen widgets are not correct for
certain screens under Icelandic. I've logged this as something to fix for FC6.
Thanks again.

Honda Endurance Racing ready to start the Suzuka 8 Hours
Suzuka 8 Hours – SUZUKA
The Honda Endurance Racing team will start Sunday's 38th "Coca-Cola Zero" Suzuka 8 Hours from 20th position after today's qualifying sessions at the 5.821km Honda-owned Suzuka circuit in Japan.
Honda's endurance specialists Julien Da Costa, Freddy Foray and Sebastien Gimbert are taking part in the second Endurance World Championship round in which the squad's main objective will be to score as many important championship points as possible on board the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP.
With 70 teams competing at the 2015 Suzuka 8 Hours, the teams were separated in two groups and each rider had two qualifying sessions. The Honda Endurance Racing team finished tenth within B Group.
With a 2'10.342 best lap performed by Gimbert around the legendary Suzuka circuit, the Honda Endurance Racing team will start Sunday's 8-hour race from 20th position. The Suzuka 8 Hours will start at 11:30 Japanese Standard Time (GMT+9) on Sunday 26 July.
For all the latest news on the team in real time follow @HondaRacingCBR on Twitter.
Neil Tuxworth
We had no problems in qualifying which is a good thing. Freddy had a small crash but that's not a serious issue for us because we had no problems with the machine and reliability is what we wanted to achieve. Generally the three riders have a very good race pace, we know we are very quick in the pits, we know what our fuel strategy will be and now we're just looking forward to the race. I'm confident we can be in the top ten and even possibly in the top six if we don't have any issue during our race.
Julien Da Costa
We are in the same pace as the permanent teams – one of the things that we are sure of is that we have a very good race pace – but of course we would have liked to do a better qualifying as we are competitors. Personally I am quite satisfied, I would have like to be a bit faster but still I am confident for the race.
Sébastien Gimbert
We have a good rhythm on the CBR, we also have a lot of experience in the field of endurance, we have a great strategy and there is consistency between all the three riders within the team – we are all in the same lap times and this is what will make us stronger. We still have a lot of work to do tomorrow before the race on Sunday, but I am happy with what we achieved today. I was satisfied with my lap times, the team worked well, the Dunlop tyres are good and my team-mates were in a good pace as well.
Freddy Foray
Today was not so good for me as I crashed out, but we worked a lot, we will still work hard tomorrow in order to try to get a better feeling at the front. I hope that it will help me to get my confidence back… Tomorrow is another day!

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?
Our Partial Hospitalization Program, or PHP, is for individuals that have completed the residential program and know that they still need help on the road to recovery, or for those individuals that, for whatever reason, be it personal or professional, need to be seen on an outpatient basis.
Benefits of a PHP
The most obvious benefit of being in a Partial Hospitalization Program is that you have the ability to leave and go home at night. For some people with children or other family members that they look after, or for some in a professional position, this is the best way to balance both worlds. Our clients that use the PHP model recognize that they are still in need of treatment but they have the luxury of being in their home at night.
Additionally, this is a more comprehensive program that provides full-day services once insurance has stopped covering the residential level of care. Patients can stay at a local sober living facility while attending our PHP services to get the high level of care they need, even if their insurance no longer covers a residential level of care.
A Partial Hospitalization Program may be good for clients that have faced a relapse but don't need the intensity of a residential program. A PHP offers some flexibility for our clients that our Residential Program does not.
What Does Our PHP Offer?
Our Partial Hospitalization Program consists of clients entering treatment for 6 to 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. Clients in a PHP participate in a comprehensive recovery program in which they work closely with many different treatment professionals, including doctors, nurses, social workers, therapists, and psychiatrists.
They will attend individual therapy sessions and group therapy with our highly trained staff. In addition, they will be working on building up the life skills necessary for a quality after-treatment program that will give them the best odds at achieving lasting recovery.
Length of Treatment
The length of treatment will depend on many factors. One is individualized needs. Sometimes a person that has already been through a Residential Program or that has just suffered a relapse won't need the same length of treatment as someone that has just exited a detox program and cannot attend a residential program but need more than an Intensive Outpatient Program.
Another factor can be a client's insurance provider and what they cover. That is why it is important for potential clients to contact our Insurance Specialist for prior authorization.

Bach Sinfonia from Cantata 29 - arrangements
David Thornton replied to stewartt's topic in Organ MusicJust come across my David Patrick edition of this, it's published by Edwin Ashdown Ltd and a quick google shows that it is currently available. I went over to the Dupre version a few years ago when it was reissued at a more affordable price. As AJJ states, the Patrick edition is much more approachable, but like any arrangement of this piece, you can't get away from the constant semiquaver figuration in the RH some of which is a bit uncomfortable.
Alfred and Daniel Kern
David Thornton replied to ptindall's topic in General discussionAs an organist who has been fortunate enough to have spent time over many summers in France and has been allowed generous access to very many organs, I've played about a dozen Kern reconstructions and new instruments. Many in the Alsace region as would be expected from a Strasbourg based firm, with other instruments in Toulouse, Nimes, Bourges, Nice, Tours, Aix-en-Provence, Rouen and Lyon. As Paul says, there are probably more reconstructed organs in France sporting a 'Kern' name plate than any other, closely followed by Formentelli. Kern's 'house style' is a 4 manual C18th 'classical' organ: full compass Positif de dos and Grand, with short compass Recit and Echo. However, unlike Formentelli who goes for the 'pedale francaise' with only 8 and 4ft stops, Kern goes for a German pedal board, usually 30 notes of standard dimensions and alignment. Kern's Pedal organ is also 16ft based with fully developed choruses of flues and reeds. His concept is the organs of Andreas Silbermann of which Ebersmunster and Marmoutier are fine but modestly sized examples. The principal choruses tend to be less fluty and with a brighter balance than more authentic classical instruments and the reed stops less assertive, also the 16ft pedal plays a completely different role to the 8ft classical pedal organ. Kern's organs play Bach and the North German repertoire very well indeed and of course the whole of the French classical repertoire. One has to bear in mind that these organs, although housed in their original C18th or earlier casework have been rebuilt and altered many times over 2 centuries, how much C18th pipework they now contain is debatable. A quick look inside cabinets often appears to indicate that much or all of the pipework is new. In a number of instruments such as Nimes he has retained a C19th Romantic Recit to create a more eclectic organ, whether this is a good thing or not is of course debatable, personally I didn't feel that the 2 aspects sat together comfortably. They are all very comfortable and easy to play having standard pedal boards, keys of reasonable length (at least on the Positif and Grand) and a predicitable touch, with a decent projection over the pedal board. Drawstop layout is very confusing for UK organists as they are arranged in solid banks on either side of the keyboards, usually principals on one side with flutes, mutations and reeds on the other. However, divisions are not separated but the stopknobs have subtly different coloured woods, with paper labels. Outstanding Kern's have been Strasbourg (as you would expect), St Gregoire Ribeaville, and a new organ at St-Jean-de-Malte Aix-en-Provence. As with many new and reconstructed organs (including Formentelli and Quoirin) which follow a certain 'style' with 'compromises', some can sound a bit bland. However, I would not be disappointed if one of the Kerns I've come across was the organ I had to play ever Sunday. You can find full write ups, specs with photos on www.musiqueorguequebec.ca
Microphone for laptop/audacity?
David Thornton replied to David Thornton's topic in General discussionThanks for the advice gents. Just to clarify my intentions, I'm looking to be able to give my singers a CD with the accompaniment (or in the case of unaccompanied anthems a representation of the ensemble) together with their individual vocal part, so the ability to multitrack is essential to the task. When I was in secondary education I did this sort of thing regularly on a professional standard recording device (can't remember exactly which one it was) on which you could burn the finished results directly to CD. I also used the hand held Edirol recorder for run of the mill recordings. As sound recording per se is not something I really want to get into, I'm not wanting to purchase any expensive equipment which I'm not likely to use very much.
Microphone for laptop/audacity?
David Thornton posted a topic in General discussionI wish to make some learning cds for members of my choir. I've installed Audacity onto my laptop as I will be making multi track recordings - recording all the choral parts or accompaniment played on the piano then singing in the individual vocal parts required. I need a decent quality microphone that will plug directly into the 1/8th inch mic socket on the laptop, costing on the right side of £100. Has anyone any experience of this sort of thing and can make some suggestions.

Churches in Venice
David Thornton replied to Martin Seymour's topic in General discussionMartin, Firstly, many congratulations and welcome to the board! Sadly, Venice like Rome is a poor place for organs; most churches (and we visited most a couple of years ago) don't have an organ, some have rather decrepit-looking unrestored historic organs, a few have very nasty small early/mid C20th organs. The only 'proper' organs I came across were the new Ahrend organ in San Salvador, this is a Renaissance style instrument in an historic C16th case. The other the 1766 Callido organ in San Marco, restored by Zanin in 1995. Good luck and enjoy your visit.
Trompe l'oeil organs
David Thornton replied to Clarabella8's topic in General discussionCollegiale Saint-Remy at Lautrec in the Tarn region of France. There is a painting of an organ on the west wall which was in place before Puget installed a modest 2m organ in 1893. The painted organ is wider than the Puget, so when viewed from the nave it looks as though the organ has pedal towers. The whole interior of the church is covered with Trompe l'oeil which is so realistic that you actually have to go and touch the mouldings to believe that they aren't real. It's all been restored recently and looks magnificent. The organ is very nice, having been restored in 1996. I couldn't get a hype-link to work, but if you google Lautrec orgue the first thing that comes up should be the church website which has a picture of the organ amongst other things.
Bristol Cathedral - new organ
David Thornton replied to DaveHarries's topic in The OrganThe Worcester keyboard/piston assemblies were by P&S who supply top quality keyboards for most UK builders, I'm fairly sure that the other console fitments (drawstops etc.) will be P&S.
Cesar Franck from St. Paul's Cathedral
David Thornton replied to AJJ's topic in The OrganI was in St Paul's for a Sunday Evensong 2 or 3 of years ago, Simon played one of the Symphonic movements (either the first or third, can't remember which), it sounded wonderful. I think at the time Simon had only completed one of the movements. Daniel Roth has also done an arrangement of the Symphony which I heard him play in Saint Amans, Rodez (South of France) several years ago, it sounded better at St Paul's. Simon also played the Symphonic Interlude from Redemption on a BBC broadcast of Choral Evensong, possibly last year. I'll have to look up this CD!
New console Notre Dame de Paris
David Thornton replied to flûte harmonique's topic in General discussionThis clip has music, and some video of the original console
JS Bach's 'Great' Prelude and Fugues
David Thornton replied to Philip's topic in The OrganRegarding the Novello scores, which I also learned from and still use, the current 'brown' editions are a photo reduction of the originals as someone else has already mentioned, the problems with these are that the print appears blurred in places and some pages are so cramped that they are virtually impossible to read (the middle section of the St Anne Fugue for example). I've recently acquired original copies of books 7 and 8 (book 7 is 'as new') one of which dates from the 1930s and am finding them much easier to play from, it's worth trawling the various websites which offer second-hand music as there are plently of these scores around, albeit in a range of conditions! This gentleman in Liverpool is offering quite a few http://www.usedorganmusic.co.uk/orderform.htm

Knock-out Lauren packs a punch
A University of Wolverhampton student is packing a punch by combining her studies with bouts in the professional boxing ring.
Known as the Black Widow, Lauren Johnson recently turned pro and won her debut professional fight.
Inspired by Olympic stars such as Nicola Adams, the Criminology and Criminal Justice student, initially got into boxing to lose weight.
Her trainer spotted her sparring talent after the 32-year-old knocked out an opponent who was being considered for the GB team in less than a minute.
Now living in Willenhall in Wolverhampton, vegan Lauren is keen to empower other female boxers and young people to aim high.
She says: "I got into boxing to lose weight – when I first walked into the gym I was 15 and a half stone. I didn't realise that women could box until the London 2012 Olympics so I am relatively new to the sport, but when I saw Nicola Adams, Savannah Marshall and Natasha Jonas I thought 'I'm going to have a go at that'.
"Now in women's boxing we are trying to empower each other and do something for the future. My goal is European and World titles.
"I can't thank the University of Wolverhampton enough. The Institute of Sport team are going to help me elevate my game and get to where I want to be, which is at the pinnacle of women's boxing."
Welterweight Lauren, who also works as a door supervisor at a nightclub, is thinking of life after competitive matches too and has a career plan worked out.
"I am making sure I keep up with my education as well but I want to show people that you can have an education and think about life after sport," she says. "My advice would be to go for your dreams – but don't forget your books!"
"I'm studying for a BA (Hons) Criminology and Criminal Justice and I want to work with young offenders in rehabilitation through sport. I'd like to show them that there is a different path to take and you can change your life. Sport teaches discipline in other aspects of your life and helps you to achieve your goals."
