David L (ag) wrote: Shark Tale is not as awful as people say it is. It is not a good film, but it is certainly not bad either as it genuinely has its comedic moments, solid characters and the plot, while predictable, is very entertaining and interesting to watch. But the songs are awful, the animation is weak, it is too referential for its own sake and the character design is quite possibly the worst I have ever seen - unpleasant, inappropriate and just horrible and even disgusting. It is an okay film, but the one executed rather poorly.
Howard F (ca) wrote: The Rotten Tomatoes sagacity is, "Overly mushy; tries too hard to pull at the heart-strings." Sorry: I know when something tries to hard to pull at my heart strings, and when something actually pulls at my heart strings. This actually pulls at the heart strings. Nothing like sacrificial atonement to pull at the heart strings. If you see anything else, you see mush.
Tony (fr) wrote: A rather offbeat combination of comedy and drama, directly and indirectly dealing with comedy on top of that. I'd heard all sorts of mixed opinions about this film, but that usually just makes me want to see a movie even more. I actually acquired the used dvd without having seen it, mainly because it features one of Jerry Lewis' later roles. Fortunately I wasn't disappointed, though the performances that really stood out were from the 2 leads Oliver Platt, and the very underrated Lee Evans. The tone of the movie may be too uneven for a lot of people, but I tend to enjoy uneven films. This was alternatively funny, sad, unsettling, and often just odd. I personally found it to be one of the most unique and creative comedies to come out of the 90's (and I thought I'd seen most of the them already). I do feel like the ending could've tied things up a little better, but I'm still glad I got the DVD.

Cassandra M (fr) wrote: This movie is second of Pasolini's so called 'Trilogy of Love' (Il Decameron, I Racconti di Canterbury, Il fiore di mille e una notte; 1970-1974). All these movies are quite specific, there are said not to be that provocative or intriguing. They are greatly influenced by the fact that while directing them Pasolini was contented because of his intimate relationship with the 'innocent barbarian', actor Ninetto Davoli. It is also said that in 'Trilogy of Love' Pasolini became resigned to the present time world by escaping to the past.However I don't think it's true. In these movies, Pasolini introduces to the audience an incorrupt world where people don't care about 'material aspects of life', they try to live at the full stretch, they seek love and, of course, sex and they do not respect 'the repressive limits imposed by religious and bourgeois morality' (Gino Moliterno). This is probably why Pasolini later declared that these three films were most ideological of his career (in his famous and long interview with Massimo Fini). I suppose Pasolini tried to confront such 'primitive' world with the world he had lived in and which he had hated so much (this confrontation is present all the time, especially by the contrast between the love and the death, by the contrast between the first tales, in which the human naked body dominates, and the last two tales in which pursuit of money causes death and perdition. Because of such end it is also suggested that I Racconti di Canterbury are very close to Pasolini's disillusioned last movie, Sal).It is common to hear that Chaucer must have rolled over in his grave after this movie was released. But if you try to understand The Canterbury Tales in the context of Chaucer's attitude towards love in his (other) literary works, you will probably find that Chaucer would resemble to Pasolini alias Mr Chaucer ends the film with writing 'Here end the Canterbury Tales, told for the mere pleasure of their telling, Amen'.

Patients treated for colon cancer that had a diet high in meat, refined grains, fat and desserts had an increased risk of cancer recurrence and death compared with patients who had a diet high in fruits and vegetables, poultry and fish, according to a study in the August 15 issue of JAMA.
Previous research has indicated that diet and other lifestyle factors have a significant influence on the risk of developing colon cancer. However, few studies have assessed the influence of diet on colon cancer recurrence and survival, according to background information in the article.
Jeffrey A. Meyerhardt, M.D., M.P.H., of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute,
Patients were followed up for cancer recurrence or death. During a median (midpoint) follow-up of 5.3 years, 324 patients had cancer recurrence, 223 patients died with cancer recurrence, and 28 died without documented cancer recurrence.
The researchers found that a higher intake of a Western dietary pattern after cancer diagnosis was associated with a significant increase in the risk of cancer recurrence or death. Compared with patients in the lowest Western dietary pattern quintile (bottom 20 percent), those in the highest quintile (top 20 percent) experienced a 3.3 times higher risk for cancer recurrence or death. Patients in the highest quintile of Western dietary pattern were 2.9 times more likely to have cancer recur than those in the lowest quintile. Similarly, a significantly higher overall risk of death with increasing Western dietary pattern was observed. In contrast, the prudent dietary pattern was not significantly associated with cancer recurrence or death.
"Studies have shown an improved disease-free survival among patients who receive adjuvant chemotherapy following the surgical resection of stage III colon cancer. This is the first study, to our knowledge, in a potentially cured population of colon cancer survivors to address the effect of diet. Because this was an observational study, causality cannot and should not be drawn from these data. Nonetheless, the data suggest that a diet characterized by higher intakes of red and processed meats, sweets and desserts, french fries, and refined grains increases the risk of cancer recurrence and decreases survival. Further analyses are under way to better delineate specific nutrients or food groupings that may have the strongest association," the authors write.

That is the question.
So, we are all navigating the tumultuous waters of a changing world and its bureaucracies. A decision needs to be made soon, though, because if I do need a visa, it will take about a month to process. This is another example of my limited understanding and God's perfect timing.
To buy a plane ticket for early April or not to buy-- that is the question.

Is the school and/or CCC allowing you to come without a visa? We were "technically" allowed to, but neither would let us because they had a half dozen teachers last year sent back because they didn't get it done in time. You have 90 days from the date your passport is stamped, or that was what we were told. The school and our mission board wouldn't let us come, however, until we had our visas in hand.
Come mid to late April! April 20th!!! Leave from O'Hare and fly back with me! :)
Looking forward to seeing you soon no matter when that may be in April!

When I first began the Word of the Day project I was afraid that I might run out of good words. It is hereby the ninth day of this endeavor and it turns out that the opposite is true! Every time I come across a good word I write it down...which basically means that every scrap of paper within reach has at least one inspiring word written on it! I have post-its in my purse, stuck to the edges of my computer monitor, stuck to the bathroom mirror, the kitchen counter, dining room table and piano! I have words tucked in books, scribbled on napkins, and running the margins of my magic planner.
The best part is that I just keep finding more of 'em! I find them in catalogs, in books, on television. I overhear them in conversation and notice them on bill boards, license plates, coffee cups, t-shirts and jewelery! It is downright weird and lovely.
Speaking of lovely...today's words is inspired by the beautiful Connie of Dirty Footprints. I've been thinking about the word dance nonstop--ever since watching the video she has posted on her blog (and reading your comments about dancing on my studio post). You see...I have a secret to admit: I dance in my studio...a LOT! I paint until I can no longer contain the sheer giddiness that wells up inside of me and then....yep, you guessed it! I totally dork out. I dance to anything from the Bee Gees to Indian Fusion to Norah Jones. ha! And I love every second of it.
*Note to audience: Please pay special attention to the way Connie throws herself into the music, especially the parts where she sings FREEEEEEEEDOM! See! Yet another inspiring word! And so without further adieu....
Go ahead....Shake your booty!
Wanna hear something that will knock your socks off?
My husband was just informed me about a possible somethin-somethin that includes travel to INDIA.
Um....please see my MONDO BEYONDO 2009. Guess who would be going with!
:) Holy COW! I think I feel nauseous. In a good way! :)
These letters are part of an ongoing project:
"WORD OF THE DAY :: living life one word at a time."
Today's word is DANCE. Dance like no one's watching.

Maico is large Poodle – he had been 85 lbs in his prime – today he could be 70 pounds.
Today he is 1-2 yrs older, contains gingivitis, arthritis in his hind quarters, even watery tumors, is now not exactly preventable and is with intermittent bowel"mishaps ." What's happened after 3 weeks of ingesting oil generated from Cannabis or hemp or weed or pot? Find out…
Appearance, we're very conservative men and women. We have been educated for decades about the evils of marijuana. However, when a popular one with four legs is still in trouble matters change in a hurry – we are not rich – we wouldn't spend a huge number to conserve a dog (as miserable as this is).
What shifted our minds about medical marijuana? (FYI -"Marijuana is just a derogatory term that means"one that smokes too much" and may perhaps not be used. Hemp is Hemp – that the industrial plant comprises much less than 1% THC whereas the existing"get high marijuana" was cross bred to comprise 16% or even more THC).
Medical weed is promoted because of
' capacity to kill suffering in cancer or anything plus it really does this. However, there appears to be more A Mazing curative attributes which have been largely disregarded.
Therefore, just what about Maico (our large Poodle – a very large typical Poodle)?
After 3 months of eating a small sum of oil made from Cannabis at the period, Maico is regaining strength from his quarters. He'd gotten into the stage where that I would need to elevate him (70 lbs ) upon our mattress. He believes they can't put up on their own, however if I only hold my hands gently on his quarters – upward he belongs. This afternoon throughout his wander ran bit and kicked his hind paws!
His hearing has improved in hearing nothing to having the ability to distinguish the direction from where the noise is coming – and also that the"sound" is that my voice under the amount of a shout.
His mind are so bad – yet one eye is much worse compared to the other. Just 3 weeks later, his much better eye would be visibly changed – yes, we believe that the glaucoma is currently thinning. He could once more grab snacks. The other eye is probably getting better however we can not creatively see the shift in that eye as of nonetheless.
His big molecule (outside his rib cage) seems to be diminishing a bit https://cbdrevo.no.
We have had zero"accidents" at the last 2 weeks.
He yells like a rock and wakes alert, hungry and curious in what is going on around him. His general spirit has been improved.
What is going to occur from here?
We are going to raise the sum of Cannabis Oil we have been offering him – and we'll experimentation with committing him during the day. What will it do? Who is aware of! All we understand is that this dog is as precious to us because our kiddies – and we will miss him so much if he expires or if we have to put him down… we are all set to become more bold within our therapy.
Are people doing this legally?
My spouse has a condition that's helped from the petroleum. We get it legally under California Medical Marijuana legislation (MML). This took a visit to a Physician (even in California a Naturopathic Doctor can prescribe M M to a person ).
The cost is relatively very low. That clearly was absolutely no recorded departure of a person anatomy from yeast – it does not impact the lymph process. We provide Maico the oil from setting a small number on a little item of cracker. I add the cracker into a sheet of hotdog. I open his chin and set it toward the rear of his moutharea.
What advice built us assume that this oil would benefit our pet Maico?
Rick Simpson is really a Canadian man that has had great consequences by generating Rick Simpson Oil… Rick has given the petroleum to over 5,000 individuals using some remarkable results. If you head for your requirements Tube and place"Rick Simpson Tribute" to the search window that the tribute online video will come up. It's long but it's well worth your time and effort – it might help your own pet. Humans using the oil (which resembles grease) begin with a dab on the magnitude of half of a grain of rice that is short. We commenced Maico on fifty percent that.

I love listening to kids when they are learning to speak. Alex has a few choice words at the moment that crack me up when he says them, but he doesnt understand why. He thinks he is speaking well and I don't want him to start questioning himself, but they are hilarious mistakes.
Currently, he is obsessed with vehicles...diggers, buses, motorbikes...but he hasn't quite got the pronunciation. At the moment, every "truck" we see is pronounced with an f instead of the tr. Quite funny...and even funnier to watch other people's reactions if they aren't used to his way of speaking.
The other classic crack up is when Mr Independance has trouble doing something. "I do it" becomes "can't" but with a u sound instead of the a. And if he is really frustrated, it sounds like he is swearing because he is struggling! Another great one to watch the shock of others while trying hard to hide the smirk on my own face!

LOL!! That's hilarious!! I've heard that the replacement of 'f' for 'tr' in truck is quite common with young kids, although I don't quite understand why?
I can't wait 'til Cooper is talking to see if he bellows out an expletive for all the neighbours to hear every time his Daddy drives past in the truck, lol.

A 42-year-old woman had bribe money and phone confiscated by the State after she tried to induce a Zimbabwe Schools Examination Council (Zimsec) official into certifying her forged Ordinary Level and Advanced Level certificates. Annamercy Geregere (42) appeared before Harare magistrate Mr Gideon Ruvetsa, charged with bribery and was convicted on her own plea of guilty.
Mr Ruvetsa slapped her with a wholly suspended 12-month prison sentence on condition she does not commit a similar offence in the next five years.
The State confiscated the $1 300 and phone she offered the Zimsec official as inducement.
The court heard that on April 13, Geregere went to Zimsec offices in Harare and asked to see Eve Dhliwayo, who is a supervisor at the public examination body.
Geregere subsequently handed Dhliwayo a letter which she purported to be from her uncle. The letter was actually offering $1 300 and a Nokia phone to Dhliwayo for her to confirm the fake certificates as original.
Dhliwayo then reported the matter to her supervisor, a Mr Dzinotyewei and a police report was made.
Detectives, who posed as Zimsec workers, then laid a trap for Geregere. She was apprehended as she tried to hand over the money and phone to Dhliwayo. Herald

We've spent the past few weeks using a couple of units from Moving Beyond the Page. Little Bit chose Tornado, a Language Arts unit. Botanist Boy received the Tales from the Middle Ages Language Arts unit.
You can purchase physical packages, or online packages. The online portion is the teacher's portion, as well as the students' pages in PDF, which can be printed off. We had one of each option: Tornado was online, and the Middle Ages was a physical package.
Jen has a little book called, Tornado, which she's had for a number of years now. Little Bit likes getting that book, and uses if for "copywork." He will copy page after page from it. Well, he'd never actually read it (nor had it read to him), so when I saw it was one of our possible choices for this review, we just had to choose it! Even though he will be 11 (tomorrow!!), his developmental and learning delays have him more within the 7-9 age range (or grades 2 or 3) recommended for this study. We used the online version.
In addition to the online access to the online unit, we were sent physical copies of the book, Tornado, and a go along book, How the Turtle Got Its Shell, which tells some of the myths of how the turtle got its shell (Alert: this book mentions the world being "billions of years" old).
Tornado is really two stories in one: The family seeks refuge in the cellar during a tornado, and while they are in there, Pete (who seems to be the farmhand) tells of a dog he had has a boy, named Tornado. Naturally, we talked some about weather, and tornadoes in particular.
For this, we pulled out a couple of Tim's extreme weather books (since he has always been interested in extreme weather and natural disasters, he has a collection of books and videos on the topic!).
I'm not sure how much all of this "stuck" with Little Bit, but I know he was thrilled to finally have the book, Tornado, read to him! LOL
Botanist Boy has long had a strong interest in castles and knights and all things Medieval (check out the castle he made awhile back), so we chose this Language Arts unit for him to work on, which he did mostly independently. (Later, I plan to go through it orally with Little Bit)
We received the physical package for this one, which included spiral bound book. The front portion is the student worktext, while the teacher's notes are at the rear of the book. This unit is recommended for grades 6-8.
The Midwife's Apprentice is a story about a young girl who is given the opportunity to assist a midwife, and is, of course, set in the Middle Ages, possibly in England.
Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! Voices From a Medieval Village illustrates a typical manor in England in the year 1255. It portrays various figures associated with such a manor, and is written mostly in poetry form.
Each day, Botanist Boy read from one book or the other, then worked on various activities, such as filling in charts, venn diagrams, crossword puzzles, etc. He was also given website suggestions, to look for recipes to prepare a meal from the time period.
|One of the suggested projects
Topics covered include different points of view, differentiating between active and passive voice, using simple, compound and complex sentences, etc.
Purchasing options include either buying the whole package (which includes the student/teacher worktext, and the books needed to go along with the study), either the physical package, or online package. Or you can purchase just the student/teacher book, and pick up the books at the library, or perhaps you already have them on hand.
If you plan to use it with more than one student at one time, you will either need to have a worktext for each child, or if you choose the online version, you can print off copies of the worksheets for each child.
Each unit takes around 3-4 weeks to complete. You are given 90 days access to the online unit, once you activate that unit. But you can request an extension if necessary.
You will want to be sure to check out the rest of the Crew's reviews, because there were many choices.
Cost: Tornado, complete physical package costs $24.97; online costs $20.91. Just the worktext, physical copy, $16.99; the online copy, $12.93. The Tales from the Middle Ages physical package costs $30.97; online costs $26.91. The physical worktext costs $16.99, while the online version is $12.93.

Development Log in June 2007.
GNAT Pro
Jun 29th, 2007
Better tracking of null values at compile time
The compiler now does a better job of tracking null constant access types, and null variables which are initialized explicitly to null. Dereferences of such null values are now detected at compile time, resulting in compile time warnings.
Suppress_Initialization for derived type
The pragma Suppress_Initialization can now be used on a derived type, suppressing initialization for objects of this derived type, without affecting initialization of objects of the root type from which the type was derived.
Warn on disallowed return of null
If in Ada 2005 mode a function specifies a not null return value, then an attempt to explicitly return null now generates an appropriate warning.
Ada Web Server
Jun 25th, 2007
Add support for plain SMTP authentication
It is now possible to send e-mails using a server requiring authentication. Only the plain authentication is supported.
GNAT Pro
Jun 24th, 2007
Improved warning for unrecognized pragma
The warning for an unrecognized pragma now includes a check for a likely misspelling of a recognized pragma, and if this is found, an additional warning message is generated.
GNAT Pro
Jun 20th, 2007
Add pragma Check_Name and 'Enabled attribute
A new pragma Check_Name allows an application program (or the predefined library) to add a new implementation defined check name. A new attribute Check_Name'Enabled allows testing the status of this check (or one of the predefined checks) at compile time.
Reordering notebook tabs
Support has been added for reordering notebook tabs (or switching to another tab) through keyboard shortcuts. Key bindings are edited as usual through /Edit/Key Shortcuts menu. Reordering can also be done through the mouse, through drag-and-drop
Specifying "recursive" directory status for VCS
It is now possible, in custom XML files, to specify an action to query the status of a directory and subdirectories recursively, which GPS calls instead of launching separate queries for each directory. The provided Subversion plug-in benefits from this improvement.
GNAT Pro
Jun 16th, 2007
Improved infinite loop warning
The infinite loop warning has been improved to detect more cases (avoid false negatives), and also to eliminate several cases of false positives (warnings about infinite loops that are in fact not infinite).
GNAT Pro
Jun 15th, 2007
Absolute addressing of objects on AAMP
On the AAMP target, an object whose address is specified using 'Address of another object with a static address, or using a constant initialized by a static address, is now referenced with absolute address instructions rather than by indirect addressing.
Performance improvements with highlighted lines
The speed of operations involving the creation or the removal of line highlighting (such as the visual file differences) has been improved.
GNAT Pro
Jun 12th, 2007
New rules added to gnatcheck
A number of new rules has been added to the gnatcheck tool. See the gnatcheck section in GNAT Users' Guide for full details.
Grouping VCS queries for better performance
It is now possible to configure VCS so that, when querying status for all files, the VCS performs "Query status for directories" on each source directory instead of file-by-file queries. This is activated by default, and can be controlled on the VCS that are described through XML files.
Avoiding hidden directories in VCS operations
The VCS operations "Query status for directory recursively" and "Update directory recursively" now take into account the Preference "Hidden directories pattern" (in the "Project" section) and do not perform VCS operations on hidden or special directories.
GNAT Pro
Jun 7th, 2007
Performance improvement for Ada.Containers.Vectors
The representation of the internal elements array was changed from a pointer to an unconstrained array to a pointer to a discriminated record. This is more efficient because no array dope is necessary (the lower bound of the array is fixed), and so the internal pointer has a more efficient representation.
Documentation on conditional compilation
An Appendix has been added to the GNAT User's Guide describing how to model conditional compilation, both in Ada in general and using specific GNAT features in particular.
Add support for Task_Info pragma on Windows
This pragma can now be used on Windows to give information about how tasks must be mapped to the available CPUs. The Windows scheduler is given the ideal processor for a given task, it is not required to map this task with the specified CPU if some other scheduling strategy is better.
Improved handling of switch error messages
Previously, when a compiler switch (such as -gnataf94) was not recognized, the error message included only the first invalid character (invalid switch: 9). The complete invalid switch will now be displayed (invalid switch: -gnat94).
Package Ada.Assertions
The package Ada.Assertions, as described in Ada 2005 AI-286 is now fully implemented.
Jun 4th, 2007
Ada Distilled: An Introduction to Ada Programming for Experienced Computer Programmers
This book is aimed at experienced programmers who want to learn Ada at the programming level. It is not a "…for dummies" book, nor is it intended as a program design book. Instead, we highlight some key features of the Ada language, with coded examples, that are essential for getting started as an Ada programmer.
This book emphasizes syntax, control structures, subprogram rules, and how-to coding issues rather than design issues. There are other really fine books available that deal with design. Also, this is not a comprehensive treatment of the Ada language. The bibliography lists some books that can help you once you have finished the material in this book. Think of this a quick-start book, one that enables you, the experienced programmer, to get into the Ada language quickly and easily. The examples use text-oriented programs for simplicity of learning. If you prefer to do the exercises for a GUI environment, check out the sites listed for compilers and tools so you can download bindings for programming in a variety of windowing environments, including Wintel, Linux, and Unix. Of particular interest to those wanting to explore Window style programming are GtkAda, CLAW, GWindows, and JEWL.

GNAT Pro | Ada Compiler
Jun 4th, 2007
Introducing the GNAT Pro InSight webinar series. AdaCore is launching a series of informative webinars dedicated to tools that make up the GNAT Pro development environment. 30 minutes long, each webinar will consist of a presentation, a demo, and a question and answer session conducted by an AdaCore technical expert.
The first technology in the series is GNATbench, the GNAT Pro Ada plug-in for Eclipse that supports both native (standard) Eclipse and Wind River's Eclipse-based Workbench software development environment. The webinar will take place on Tuesday, June 5, 2007.For more information, please click here.
Switch -gnatI to ignore all representation clauses
Use of this switch (option /IGNORE_REP_CLAUSES in VMS) results in ignoring all representation clauses and treating them as comments. This is useful when compiling foreign code (during an initial port, or for use with ASIS).
New warning on unchecked conversion of pointers
A warning is now given for unchecked conversion between pointers with different conventions. In some architectures (notably VMS), pointers with different conventions may have different representations. To deal with this, on VMS a warning is given for such conversions. This warning may be suppressed using -gnatwZ.
Warning for duplicate Preelaborable_Initialization
It is legal to have more than one Preelaborable_Initialization pragma for a given type, but the compiler now generates a warning for this usage if warn-on-redundant constructs mode is set (-gnatwr).
Document how to remove deactivated code
A new section has been added to the High Integrity User's Guide that document the various methods for decreasing deactivated code footprint in the final executable.
Makefile.py now also provides support for ant
The "ant" build system is now supported as a GPS plug-in. The support is similar to what already existed for makefiles, and is available through the same plug-in. See extended documentation through /Tools/Plug-ins menu.

The First Commandment (Part 2)
August 26, 2007
"The duty to know and acknowledge God to be the only true God:
'As for you, my sons Soloman, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever' (1 Chron. 28:9; See also 2 Kings 20:3; 2 Chron. 15:2; Deut. 31:17)
Are there any among the idols of the nations that can cause rain?
Or Can the heavens give showers?
Are You not He, O LORD our God?
Therefore we will wait for You,
Since You have made all these (Jer. 14:22).
The duty to worship God:
Oh come, let us worship and bow down:
Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
For He is our God,
And we are the people of His pasture;
Abd the sheep of His hand (Psa. 95:6-7)
The duty to glorify God:
Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name;
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness (Psa.29:2)
The duty to think about God:
Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another,
And the Lord listened and heard them;
So a book of remembrance was written before Him
For those who fear the LORD
And hwo meditate on His name (Mal. 3:16).
The duty to meditate of God:
When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches (Psa. 63:6).
(See also Psa. 42:8)
The duty to remember God:
Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth,
Before the difficult days come,
And the years draw near when you say,
'I have no pleasure in them' (Eccles. 12:1)."

US NTSB Shakes Finger at Tesla, but Why?
The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is pissed about Tesla releasing crash information about the recent fatality in a Tesla Model X while the company was using Autopilot and adaptive cruise control. However, the US NTSB did not say why it had issue with the release of the information. I guess not calling it "Autopilot" would likely be a good start to people understanding that Autopilot is not actually autopilot.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday it was "unhappy" that electric car maker Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) made public information about the crash of its Model X vehicle on Autopilot that killed the driver last month.

What we have today is the Bozo equivalent of Google-ing yourself. Bozo Christian Perez of Thibodaux, Louisiana, started thinking about his legal situation…were there any active warrants out on him or not? So, he did what any bozo would do, he dialed 911, gave the operator his info and asked if she could check to see if he had any outstanding warrants. Officers were dispatched and when they asked our bozo if he knew the difference between an emergency and a non-emergency call, he replied that he did. Well, if you do, then you also understand why we're now arresting you for abuse of the 911 system.

I think we can all agree, that money is the ultimate scorekeeper in business…but it doesn't always report total success.
So today, I offer a different metric…
How many days can you leave…go incommunicado…and still have a vibrant, profitable operation when you return?
Think about it for a minute…
How many days can you go without monitoring email or calling in to make sure the place isn't engulfed in flames from fires your team can't extinguish?
A weekend?
Three days (i.e. you're checking email on Wednesday in the middle of your week-long family vacation)…
A week, two, three?
True success in business is building a money machine that runs with less and less input from you over time.
We all get the money part, and we focus on it.
We usually ignore the "less and less of you" part, and instead pour in more and more and more of you, until there is no more.
Too many, just get consumed by the business.
There's a better way…
I know. I've lived it.
A year ago, I met a smart lady who's probably better at getting business owners out of the daily operational side of the business than just about anyone.
Her name is Mandi Ellefson, and I've asked her to present her process to you in a special webinar next Tuesday.
It's completely free and if you answered anything less than 2-weeks to my "incommunicado" question, you should attend.

The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. The primary organs of the respiratory system are lungs, which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe.
Red blood cells collect the oxygen from the lungs and carry it to the parts of the body where it is needed, according to the American Lung Association. During the process, the red blood cells collect the carbon dioxide and transport it back to the lungs, where it leaves the body when we exhale.
The human body needs oxygen to sustain itself. A decrease in oxygen is known as hypoxia and a complete lack of oxygen is known as anoxia, according to the National Institutes of Health. These conditions can be fatal; after about four minutes without oxygen, brain cells begin dying, according to NYU Langone Medical Center, which can lead to brain damage and ultimately death.
In humans, the average rate of breathing depends on age. A newborn's normal breathing rate is about 40 times each minute and may slow to 20 to 40 times per minute when the baby is sleeping, according to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
For adults, the average resting respiratory rate for adults is 12 to 16 breaths per minute, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. Physical exertion also has an effect on respiratory rate, and healthy adults can average 45 breaths per minute during strenuous exercise.
Parts of the respiratory system
As we breathe, oxygen enters the nose or mouth and passes the sinuses, which are hollow spaces in the skull. Sinuses help regulate the temperature and humidity of the air we breathe.
The trachea, also called the windpipe, filters the air that is inhaled, according to the American Lung Association. It branches into the bronchi, which are two tubes that carry air into each lung. (Each one is called a bronchus.) The bronchial tubes are lined with tiny hairs called cilia. Cilia move back and forth, carrying mucus up and out. Mucus, a sticky fluid, collects dust, germs and other matter that has invaded the lungs. We expel mucus when we sneeze, cough, spit or swallow.
The bronchial tubes lead to the lobes of the lungs. The right lung has three lobes; the left lung has two, according to the American Lung Association. The left lung is smaller to allow room for the heart, according to York University. Lobes are filled with small, spongy sacs called alveoli, and this is where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs.
The alveolar walls are extremely thin (about 0.2 micrometers). These walls are composed of a single layer of tissues called epithelial cells and tiny blood vessels called pulmonary capillaries.
Blood passes through the capillaries. The pulmonary artery carries blood containing carbon dioxide to the air sacs, where the gas moves from the blood to the air. Oxygenated blood goes to the heart through the pulmonary vein, and the heart pumps it throughout the body.
The diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle at the bottom of the lungs, controls breathing and separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity, the American Lung Association noted. When a breath it taken, it flattens out and pulls forward, making more space for the lungs. During exhalation, the diaphragm expands and forces air out.
Diseases of the respiratory system
Diseases and conditions of the respiratory system fall into two categories: viruses, such as influenza, bacterial pneumonia, enterovirus respiratory virus; and chronic diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). According to Dr. Neal Chaisson, who practices pulmonary medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, there is not much that can be done for viral infections but to let them run their course. "Antibiotics are not effective in treating viruses and the best thing to do is just rest," he said.
COPD is the intersection of three related conditions — chronic bronchitis, chronic asthma and emphysema, Chaisson told Live Science. It is a progressive disease that makes it increasingly difficult for sufferers to breath.
Asthma is a chronic inflammation of the lung airways that causes coughing, wheezing, chest tightness or shortness of breath, according to Tonya Winders, president of the Allergy & Asthma Network. These signs and symptoms may be worse when a person is exposed to their triggers, which can include air pollution, tobacco smoke, factory fumes, cleaning solvents, infections, pollens, foods, cold air, exercise, chemicals and medications.
Lung cancer
Lung cancer is often associated with smoking, but the disease can affect non-smokers as well. Every year, about 16,000 to 24,000 Americans die of lung cancer, even though they have never smoked. In 2018, the American Cancer Society estimates there will be about 234,030 new cases of lung cancer (121,680 in men and 112,350 in women) and around 154,050 deaths from lung cancer (83,550 in men and 70,500 in women).
Diagnosing and treating respiratory ailments
Pulmonologists treat the respiratory system, including the lungs, according to the American College of Physicians. Because of the critical nature of the respiratory system, pulmonologists work in hospitals as well as in private practice. A pulmonologist must first be certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and then obtain additional training in the subspecialty.
Common diagnostic tools for diagnosing respiratory disease include chest X-rays and a pulmonary function test (PFT), according to Merck Manuals. A PFT measures how well the lungs take in and release air and how well they circulate oxygen.
A doctor may also perform a bronchoscopy by inserting a tube with a light and camera into the airways — the trachea and the bronchial tubes — to examine for bleeding, tumors, inflammation or other abnormalities. A similar procedure is a thoracoscopy, in which a doctor uses an optical device to examine the surfaces of the lungs.
A physician may order a PFT as part of a routine exam — especially for smokers, according to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. A PFT may also be ordered to test lung function before surgery or to help diagnose lung conditions or diseases.
A new nasal swab test measures RNA or protein molecules in human cells and can identify a viral infection, according to a study published Dec. 21, 2017, in the Journal of Infectious Diseases. "It's a simpler test and more cost-effective for looking at viral infection," the author, Dr. Ellen Foxman, assistant professor of laboratory medicine at Yale School of Medicine, told YaleNews. During the test, RNAs predicted viral infection with 97 percent accuracy.
For most healthy individuals, the most common respiratory ailment they may face is an infection, according to Dr. Matthew Exline, a pulmonologist and critical care expert at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. A cough is the first symptom, possibly accompanied by a fever.
"However, cough can be a sign of chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis or emphysema," he said. "In chronic lung disease, most respiratory diseases present with shortness of breath, initially with exertion, such as walking a significant distance or climbing several flights of stairs."
The most certain way to diagnose asthma is with a lung function test, a medical history and a physical exam, according to Winders. "However, it's hard to do lung function tests in children younger than 5 years. Thus, doctors must rely on children's medical histories, signs and symptoms, and physical exams to make a diagnosis."
For COPD, many patients benefit from respiratory rehabilitation, according to Dr. Brian Carlin, assistant professor of medicine at Drexel University College of Medicine. "It is much like cardiac rehabilitation for heart patients, and can provide education, exercise and training to reduce the number of respiratory incidents."
Some milestones in the study of the respiratory system.
- 13th century: Anatomist and physiologist Ibn Al-Nafis advances his theory that the blood must have passed through the pulmonary artery, through the lungs, and back into the heart to be pumped around the body. This is believed by many to be the first scientific description of pulmonary circulation.
- 1897: Gustav Killian uses a rigid esophagoscope to extract a pork bone from a farmer's bronchus.
- 1898: A. Coolidge performs the first bronchoscopy in the United States at Massachusetts General Hospital.
- 1905: Looking to improve the care of tuberculosis patients by sharing their experiences and discoveries, a small group of physicians forms what becomes the American Thoracic Society.
- 1907: In Philadelphia, Chevalier Jackson develops and improves the instruments for bronchoscopy and esophagoscopy.
- 1963: James Hardy of the University of Mississippi performs the first human lung transplant. The patient lives for 18 days.
- 1964: Shigeto Ikeda develops a prototype of a flexible bronchoscope.
- 1983: Joel D. Cooper, a thoracic surgeon, performs the first successful lung transplant in Toronto.
- 1986: Cooper performs the first successful double lung transplant.
- 2013: GuineIN Tube, a robotic, self-guiding intubation device is introduced.
- 2013: Researchers at the University of Michigan use 3D printing to create a splint to hold open a baby's airway so he could breathe.
- 2015: Scientist convert human embryonic stem cells into lung cells.

Burna Boy's team has uncovered in a meeting with Punch that he's not on the run from the police, but rather is caught up with recording in the nation.
He had before in the week been welcomed by the police over the theft of artist Mr 2Kay at the "Buckwyld N Breathless" show.
Mr 2Kay had been victimized at gunpoint in his hotel room at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, after his performance at the show.
His road manager Joel Kantiok has just been captured and paraded by the police, alongside 3 different speculates who asserted they were contracted to victimize Mr 2Kay by the artist.
His record mark Spaceship Entertainment had discharged an announcement saying he has respected the police welcome, a claim the police immediately exposed.
In the meeting with Punch, an unknown source in his group said he isn't on the run.
The source said seeing as December is a bustling period for the singer, he is caught up with planning for appearances. The source stated:
"Burna Boy is neither on the run nor avoiding the police; he is not guilty. I cannot tell you his exact whereabouts but he is in the country recording.
Also, you should know that as the festive season approaches, demand for his services would be on the increase, so he is preparing for appearances as well.
Initially, when he was invited, he could not go to the station because of his engagements, so his father went to the police station in his stead. But now that the police have insisted that they want to see him personally, he would surely honour their invitation.
He is not guilty of the charges leveled against him."

YOU: What the hell is that?
ME: No need to curse. Ever been to an awesome comedy show and wish you had some more time slash (I type out my slashes) the right environment to get to know or hangout with the comics and or the cool people you saw in the crowd after the show?
Well then you'll love #THECOMEDYKICKBACK.
YOU: I'm listening…
ME: Good. THE COMEDY KICKBACK is a professional STAND UP COMEDY show that turns into a kickback slash game night right after the performances.
YOU: Sounds fun, but I'm too old for game night.
ME: Shut up. No you're not. The games are bought in large sizes to maximize the FUNny and to keep you feeling like an adult while playing them. We have all your favorites of course: TABOO, UNO, DOMINOES, CONNECT FOUR, JENGA, you get the point.
YOU: So we play games while the comedy is going on? That's sounds distracting.
ME: No. I said after the comedy we have our kickback. It happens in the main bar of The Hollywood Improv. Read slowly.
YOU: Ohhh, ok sounds good; but how much? $50 and a 2 drink minimum I bet.
ME: No, that's absurd. Only $5 pre-sale online or a higher price at the door. No drink minimum either so feel free to drive safe. If you're not the designated driver we do have awesome drinks slash food from a fully stocked bar and kitchen and great music playing all night.
YOU: I'm sold, but just wondering, who are the comics?
ME: That's great to hear…We have different comics all night and every comedian are proven headliners or soon to be headliners as seen on: Comedy Central, MTV, HBO, BET, Showtime, etc. Our last few headliners were the always funny Tiffany Haddish, Damon Wayans Jr. and Erik Griffin.

During our trip to Chicago this weekend, we made the fateful decision to put the Rock Band back together, after multiple cranberry vodka martinis. Our quickly-drafted official photographer and first groupie,
, really captured the essence of Pü during our sold-out reunion tour, which spanned three virtual bars in Chicago and one in NYC.
Thank you! Goodnight!
More photos and highlights can be found HERE.
In between sets and rounds we found quality time to spend with the Chicago crew, and renewed our commitment to someday relocate there. It's just too cool of a city to not live in, traffic notwithstanding.

SPENDING and BAN are two words that appear frequently in our blogosphere. It's unsurprising really. Blogs are full of aspirational life goals and pretty things. A knee jerk reaction in imposing a spending ban does seem like an obvious solution. However, I think there's one major problem with them. During that time it's easy to […]Read More

Mainframe - Installing and configuring QWS3270 Secure for Windows
This document describes downloading and installing QWS3270 Secure, and configuring it for secure connection to the UW Mainframe.
- Downloading the QWS3270 Secure client
- Installing the QWS3270 Secure client
- Configuring QWS3270 Secure
- Enabling QWS3270 to automatically connect (optional)
Downloading the QWS3270 Secure client
Visit the Campus Software Library (CSL) at: https://software.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/ssl/csl_download.cgi?group_id=17
Login to the CSL via WiFed using your campus login information. For more information about logging in via WiFed, see Wisconsin Federation - Logging into an application.
Once logged in, scroll down to the item name and click QWS3270 Secure v4.9 - 12MB file.
- A license agreement will pop up. If you agree to the terms, click OK.
Click Save and save the QWS3270 Secure installer.
Installing the QWS3270 Secure client
- Double-click the installer you downloaded previously to begin the install process.
- Read and accept the license agreement and click Next.
- Choose to either install QWS3270 Secure for anyone on the computer (default) or only for you and click Next.
- Make sure that Typical Install is selected and click Next.
- Select English as the default language and click Next twice to start the installation.
- When the installation is complete, click Finish.
- Optional: Uninstall the old version of QWS3270 Plus using the general directions given in Windows XP - Uninstalling a Program or Windows 7 & Vista - Uninstalling a Program.
Configuring QWS3270 Secure
An icon for QWS3270 Secure should have been added to the desktop, and a folder called QWS3270 Secure, containing a shortcut for the QWS3270 Secure program, should have been added to the list of Programs in the Start Menu. Open QWS3270 Secure from either location.
Upon first running, QWS3270 Secure will walk you through setting up a new connection using the New Session Wizard, as shown below. Press Next to continue.
In order to connect to the mainframe, QWS3270 needs to know the address of the mainframe. You should enter blue.doit.wisc.edu for the host name, as shown below. Then press Next.
QWS3270 also needs to know the port number that it should use to communicate with the mainframe. Change this from the default to 923, as shown below.
The display size to use with QWS3270 must also be set. For the best results using IMSVS, this should be set to 24 x 80 as shown below.
Choose a name to refer to this session and enter it in the window shown below, then click Next. This name can be anything you choose, but we have chosen "UW Mainframe" for this example.
The final screen of the new session window should appear as shown below. Click Finish to create the new session. At this point there are still a couple of additional changes to make before you will be able to connect.
Once the New Session Wizard has completed, the QWS3270 Connect window will appear as shown below. However, there are still some settings which we need to manually change by clicking on the Edit button.
The Session Options window should appear. Click on Security, under Connection, in the left side menu of options as shown below.
Make the following changes as shown below:
- Check the box labeled Enable Secure Connection.
- Select TLSv1 under SSL/TLS Protocol Version.
- Drag the Minimum Cipher Strength slider as far to the right as possible. The final value will depend on the version of Windows you are running.
- Uncheck all four boxes under Server Certificate Options.
Click OK to apply your changes and you are ready to connect! Click the Connect option shown below to connect.
Enabling QWS3270 to automatically connect (optional)
By default, QWS3270 does not automatically connect when you open the program. You instead need to manually connect using the session you setup earlier in the process. However, it is possible to configure QWS3270 to automatically connect. You should only do this if you do not need to connect to multiple, different mainframe systems using the same program.
Make sure you are disconnected from the UW Mainframe (you can click on QWS3270 and then Disconnect if necessary).
Click on Options and then Session.
You should then see the same session settings window you saw earlier in this process, but Host Name will be 'Specify Host Name' if the default profile is not setup. Go through setting up the session options using the directions given earlier in this document. In particular, this should match steps 9 and 10 above.
Click OK once you've finished configuring the default session.
Click Options and then Application.
Locate Startup Options and select Auto Connect, and check the option to Disable Splash Screen as shown below.

There's Kennedy Meadows or Fish Creek, just at the southern-most tip of Sequoia, only a couple hours outside of Los Angeles (up the 395 to J41). Big trees, very mountainous, and the Sherman Jeep Trail has plenty of rocks and tight spots between trees.E-train wrote:How about a place with big trees where you can feel the Spring time? Is there a place like that around here with good trails and group camping that might be a little different than Big Bear and Summerfest?
The negatives are 1) far for San Diegans, 2) I only know of 2 other challenging trails, 3) the drive to trails from camp could be 30 to 45 minutes.

The manifold flora from small flowers to huge trees is especially good at this side of the Table Mountain. I bought seeds and hope that they will grow at home. Here you can see as well the only atomic power plant of South Africa.

Team GB taekwondo fighter Sarah Stevenson maintains there can be no talk of it being her destiny to win Olympic gold in London.
Stevenson - a bronze medallist at the Beijing Games after a scoring error was overturned - has certainly been tested during the past 18 months.
She was able to deliver World Championship gold while her parents were contending with terminal illness - both her mother and father died last year - and then had to overcome a serious knee injury to prove her fitness for the four-strong Olympic taekwondo squad.
After Stevenson was given the honour of reading the athletes' oath at the opening ceremony, it would be some story were the 29-year-old to go on and claim under-67kg gold at ExCeL on Friday week.
However, Stevenson - appointed MBE in the 2012 New Year Honours - insists sentiment can play no part in her preparations.
"Just because bad things happened to me and I went on to become world champion does not mean I have got a God-given right to win the Olympics," said Stevenson, who suffered knee ligament damage requiring surgery while in Mexico at the start of the year.
She added: "It was my husband who said that to me: 'Don't think that it is destined to be because of everything which has happened'.
"I will give it my best, but to me the Olympics is not the most important thing in my life."
Stevenson, coached by her husband Steve Jennings, added: "I know it will be a dream come true if I win the Olympics, but I still have got the rest of my life ahead and it is these experiences which make you realise what is important.
"On the day, I will fight like I always do and just go for it."


text: Fabrizio Moretti, Secretary General, is extremely content with the results achieved in his first edition of the Biennial, and adds, "Targeting enhanced quality and greater internationalisation to confirm the status of the Biennial as a broad, qualified and captivating appointment with the great Italian artistic tradition proved to be an inspired decision. My task was to carry forward the prestigious work of Giovanni Pratesi, to whom I should like to offer my greatest thanks and who continues to be our model for the professionalism and passion of the Biennial. I also wished to give the Fair a more international slant, leveraging my personal acquaintanceships. This led to both major confirmations and illustrious novelties among the 88 participants: for example the return of Jean Luc Baroni and, among the new entries, Otto Nauman, Munich Highlights and Jörn Günter Rare Books from Basel, Paul Smetts from Geneva and Meheringer/Benappi from Munich. There is still great love for Italian art in the world, even though it has to face the challenge of new fashions and trends. Everyone who loves and collects such art and wants to do good business has to know that the most genuine showcase, the one you can't afford to miss, is to be found in Palazzo Corsini. It is here that the best qualified antique dealers display their finest pieces every two years, presenting them to connoisseurs from all over the world."

The 'It' Shirt Trend
Transition seasons are my favourite. I think they are the most fashionable. I like layering, and transition seasons means we get to wear more pieces to show of personality, without having to cover up entirely. The perfect way to do this? Deconstructed shirts. Actually, they are more like overly constructed shirts with loads of extra little flairs. The best type.
So, here is a little list of some shirts with a whole lot of extra flair.
