With ASP.NET 4 it is easy to create this URLs. The ASP.NET team includes routing features, known from the MVC web framework.
Add a route in Global.asax
protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e){ //RouteTable and PageRouteHandler are in System.Web.Routing RouteTable.Routes.Add("ProductRoute", new Route("products/{productname}", new PageRouteHandler("~/ssw/Products/ProdCategoryList.aspx")));}
Note: There is no dependency on the MVC framework in order to use this code.
Note: IIS7 has a module called URL rewrite module that can do this functionality without changing any code. Just a configuration of a "Rule" in the IIS Manager.
The standard DataGrid of ASP.NET doesn't include this functionality, developers need to implement it by themselves.
Fortunately, RadGrid supplies this perfect feature.
Developer can turn this feature on by setting the AllowFilteringByColumn="True".
$("p").hover(function () {
$(this).css({ "background-color":"yellow", "font-weight":"bolder" }); },
function () {
var cssObj = { "background-color": "#ddd",
"font-weight": "",
color: "rgb(0,40,244)"
Name: <input id="name" type="text" value="{binding name, mode=auto}" />
Echo: {binding name, mode=auto}
Name: <input id="name" type="text" value="{binding name, mode=twoWay}" />
Echo: {binding name, mode=twoWay}
Name: <input id="name" type="text" value="{binding name, mode=oneWay}" />
Echo: {binding name, mode=twoWay}
Name: <input id="name" type="text" value="{binding name}" />
Echo: {binding name, mode=oneWayToSource}

The following video shows an overview of Yotpo ratings which we've implemented for our SSW Rules.
You should use
Pingdom Website Speed Test to analyze the load speed of your websites and learn how to make them faster.
Then work to keep it under 3 MB:
If web.config contains a <httpHandlers> or <httpModules> section, that section must contain a <remove... /> or a <clear /> element.
This basically forces developers to explicitly enable inheritance in nested virtual directories. In 99% of cases this developers won't use inheritance on these two sections, however it causes issues when somebody wants to add a module or handler to the parent virtual directory.

Before starting a software project and evaluating a new technology, it is important to know what the best practices are. The easiest way to get up and running is by looking at a sample application. Below are a list of sample applications that we've curated and given our seal of approval.
If you add old, obsolete or incorrect NuGet packages, the project will suffer and you might have decreased performance or scope creep as new requirements are discovered.
Avoid old technologies such as:
You should also add the following NPM packages:
Note: Prior to 2016, SSW recommend developers choose bower over NPM as their front end package manager. That recomendation has changed due to the industry trend away from bower.
Part of SugarLearning Developer Induction.
Don't waste time evaluating which Web UI libraries to use. Most of the commonly used libraries are very similar in functionality . The recommend library is Twitter Bootstrap.
It's the most popular available framework today, which means more people involved in the project, more tutorials and articles from the community, more real-world examples/websites, more third-party extensions, and better integration with other web development products
In VS 2013 Zurb Foundation was always out of date on Nuget. So if you use it (which is not recommended) download it direct from Github.
In VS 2015 these packages were moved from Nuget to Bower.
Now that you saved a lot of UI development time by using Bootstrap, you can play around with other useful frameworks.
Nothing great is easy. The SSW rules are a great resource for developers all around the world.
However it's hard to keep rules current and correct. If you spot a rule that is out of date, please email or if you are cool tweet me.

Agree with Khushi why can't these women mind their business & stop their senseless blame game of hurting others for no fault of theirs……..how can a mother be always pointed out as the sole reason for a miscarriage…it's all unexpected & it would be the mother who would be the most affected after such an incident……they should put themselves in the shoes of others before blaming others…..disgusting mindset
Shyam trying to ease the situation expected to happen between his mom & wife was appreciative. Sweet of him to act strong infront of Khushi so as not to worry her more but he should be her pillar of strength & assure her that he's beside her all through their life which he seems to have failed
Ananya calming Arnav & telling him to act wisely & take the right decisions without any haste & assuring him that she would always stand beside him was so admirable
Arnav not wanting to poke his nose into Khushi's personal life but wanting to calm her down & their little argument at his cabin was well framed
The unknown pull & urge to comfort her & to be comforted by him leading to the hug under the rain was well portrayed
Eager to know what happens next

Its weird piece u know
I never expected anyone can write on Arhi like this
I don't know how u make arnav khushi fall in love with each other if they are married And love their better halves
Still I can't imagine in my mind how can khushi and shyam get married and arnav wed lavanya as a couple
How can ? I
So I m here to get to know how u do this
khushi still loves shyam and arnav loves lavanya and just she breaks his trust
What happened with khushi its painful but that uneducated society always blame woman for every wrong they never see how much a mother suffer.
Shyam still behave normal with khushi.
Is there something I m ignoring?
But she can build it again
They are married and happy in their lives
Then how they attracted with each other

4 reviews | 4.8 out of 5
This is my first piano I've bought and I'm loving it. Pros - Alot of differnt sounds/instruments built in.
- Fun to play
- Sturdy/great looking piano.
- Speakers are good all around.
- Not simple but fairly easy to learn the setup of the Piano and it's features.
- You can play along, it will grade you, the list goes on for all the differnt setups available.
- Overall a great purchase for new comers to the advanced piano players. Cons
- I've heard these sometimes don't come with AC adaptor so read carefully.
- You must purchase the USB (hookup) and the instructional video seperately. Neither are expensive, but would have been helpfull.
- Confusing at first but you'll get use to the features. In the end I would recommend this and is a great price once you look at other piano's and the price for the features.
Yes, just as the name implies, this digital keyboard piano truly does pack punch. The sound is quite realistic, and quality of it is superb. Now, the keys are very lightly weighted, so if you are seeking a piano with weighted keys, then this might not be for you, though I my self prefer weighted keys, but with this I really got use to. The DGX-220 also includes with some over 400 sounds, all of which are extremely satisfying, and will keep you busy for hours on end.
Over all, I"m very content with my purchase, and at 297$, this is truly a steal.
Though be warned, this does not include a SUSTAIN PEDAL, so take care into buying one, because the sustain pedal will indeed increase the experience of this amazing instrument and its fun.
Again, amazing piano, thanks walmart.com
This keyboard is fantastic!! It has GREAT sound. I bought this for my daughter who is just learning but wanted something that I could also play as I have played piano for several years. I saw this same thing at Circuit City for more than double the price!!! AND, when I bought this...it was on sale, making my purchase even better! The sound is wonderful, the options are endless and I highly recommend this product!!!
Yamaha DGX-220 is a good keyboard with USB & Touch screen. It has very good sound quality. Overall its a standard size keyboard (77keys) with cool features within an affordable price (near about $300). You can play/record MIDI tracks using this keyboard. One Disadvantage: This version does not support memory card.

Design Smoke
My friend Jeff Johnson from Spunk, started a video blog where he interviews designers, called Design Smoke. Jeff is often wearing a hat and smoking a cigar, thus guessing that is where the "smoke" part comes in. Jeff was/is one of the the most influential art directors in the Minneapolis area, moved out of the…
Guilloche & Moire
Our newest lineup of 2009 stock vectors, images and videos; Guilloche & Moire. Guilloche is an engraving technique in which a very precise intricate repetitive patterns or design is mechanically etched into an underlying material with very fine detail. Specifically, it involves a technique of engine turning, called guilloché in French after the French engineer "Guillot", who invented a machine "that could scratch fine patterns and designs on metallic surfaces". The machine improved upon the more time-consuming practice of making similar designs by hand, allowing for greater delicacy, precision, and closeness of the line, as well as greater speed.
My latest side project, Buamai, is now official. The goal of Buamai was to gather a select community of authors to begin creating an interesting image archive relative to art and design. The project is in its very first stages, so its fresh, small and just now getting off the ground but in the coming…

The loose, hand drawn quality adds yet another layer of personality to the font. Hannah is similar to one of our popular…
Earles and Jensen
Probably my last post of the year so thought I would go out in style. This week Travis introduced me to Earles and Jansen and it pretty amazing. For sure worth a listen if you are into prank calls and off humor. The Bleachy series and the Ditchweed one are my favorites for sure.

The Kid Who Smoked Everybody
The history of sports is an endless parade of precocious talents. They burst on the scene. They fall. They retire to make a living hawking hair dye.
But on rare occasions, a competitor will arrive to do what's never been done—to plow through all the traffic cones of history. Sometimes these athletes get anointed immediately. Sometimes it takes a while.
As Formula One steers toward season's end, it's probably fair to ask the following question about Germany's Sebastian Vettel: Is this kid the greatest driver in the history of drivers?
The 24-year old Vettel, who races for the Red Bull team, has had a brutally dominant season, winning 11 of 18 races. In a sport where the stopwatch never lies, Vettel has qualified fastest 14 times—tying the all-time record. He's long since wrapped up his second world championship. In Sao Paulo at the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix, which is Nov. 27, he'll attempt to break the record for poles in a season.
"The exciting thing about Sebastian is he's getting better," said Vettel's boss, Christian Horner, the head of the Red Bull F1 team. "He's still improving. He's still developing as a driver and a young man."
While Nascar has seen its marquee talent, Jimmie Johnson, sink back into the pack after a five-year Sprint Cup championship reign, Vettel is pushing F1 in the other direction.
In motorsport, F1 is the biggest stage. Its teams have the largest budgets and the wildest technology. It also pulls from the world's largest talent pool.
Vettel, who is still in the formative years of his career, has already padded his resume: He's the youngest to drive in an official F1 practice (age 19 and 53 days, at the 2006 Turkish Grand Prix), the youngest to set a fastest lap time in a Grand Prix session (that same day), to score a point, to lead a race, to win pole position, to make the podium at an F1 race and win an F1 race (a spectacular effort in the rain at the 2008 Italian Grand Prix). In 2010 he became the youngest-ever world champion.
He set a record nine seconds into his F1 career when he got fined $1,000 for speeding in the pit lane. "He was a star right out of the gate," said Steve Matchett, a commentator who calls F1 races for the Speed channel.
Is he the best ever? Matchett said the rules and regulations have changed over the years, so it's hard to compare him to other generations, "but what he's done is absolutely phenomenal."
The son of a carpenter from Heppenheim, Vettel came up through the usual path in Europe: karting, followed by the minor leagues of open-wheel racing. By 21 he was already being compared to his childhood hero, Michael Schumacher—the most accomplished racing driver who has ever lived. The fans started calling Vettel "Baby Schumi."
F1 insiders rave about Vettel's ability to bond with his team, his technical savvy and his natural skill and commitment. He's a terrific starter, and he's proven to be a force on all types of tracks, having won this year at Monaco (a slower track with lots of corners) and Monza (F1's fastest circuit with lots of full-throttle straights).
Naysayers counter that Vettel wins consistently because he has the best car. Red Bull, which won the constructors championship this year and last, is leaps and bounds ahead of others.
So where will Vettel stand in the pantheon of greats? Here's a look at seven drivers whose legacies he's chasing.
Juan Manuel Fangio
World Championships: 1951 (Alfa Romeo), 1954 and 1955 (Mercedes), 1956 (Ferrari), 1957 (Maserati) In the cockpit: Known for his courage and skill, no one has won a higher percentage of races entered than El Maestro.
Jimmy Clark
World Championships: 1963, 1965 (Lotus-Ford) In the cockpit: The Scot is the only man to win the F1 title and the Indy 500 in the same year. His career was cut short by a fatal crash in 1968.
Sir Jackie Stewart
World Championships: 1969 (Matra-Ford), 1971 and 1973 (Tyrrell-Ford) In the cockpit: The Flying Scot quit in his prime to protest the number of deaths in F1 during his time.
Niki Lauda
World Championships: 1975 and 1977 (Ferrari), 1984 (McLaren-TAG)In the cockpit: After a 1976 accident at the German Grand Prix, the Austrian regained consciousness to see a priest reading his last rites. Six weeks later, he raced at Monza.
Ayrton Senna
World Championships: 1988, 1990, 1991 (McLaren-Honda)In the cockpit: A recent documentary has revived talk of Senna's greatness. He died in a crash at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
Alain Prost
World Championships: 1985 and 1986 (McLaren-TAG), 1989 (McLaren-Honda), 1993 (Williams-Renault) In the cockpit: Nicknamed the Professor, the analytical Frenchman's first win came in a French car at the 1981 French Grand Prix.
Michael Schumacher
World Championships: 1994 (Benetton-Ford), 1995 (Benetton-Renault), 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 (Ferrari) In the cockpit: Still racing with the Mercedes team at age 42, the German holds the F1 record for most victories, most poles, points, world championships and money.

No injuries reported from Brattleboro-area crashesNovember 23,2012No injuries in Brattleboro crashes
Troopers from the Brattleboro barracks of the Vermont State Police investigated a few crashes on Thursday but reported no serious injuries.
Senior Trooper Genevra Cushman said a crash on Route 9 near the intersection with MacArthur Road in Marlboro around 10:15 a.m. sent a man to the hospital.
Police said Patrick Perrotti, 68, of Wilmington, was traveling west on Route 9 when he lost control of his 1993 Toyota truck on black ice. Perrottis truck collided with the drivers side of a 2007 Chevrolet HHR, driven by Thomas Albercio, 51, of Brattleboro, who was also traveling west on Route 9.
The Toyota truck then entered the oncoming lane where it collided with a 2012 Toyota Sienna, driven by Jeffrey Salmon, 45, of Rexford, N.Y., who was traveling east on Route 9.
The truck and the Sienna were towed from the scene but the HHR was able to be driven away.
Perrotti was taken to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital to be treated for a laceration of the ear, Cushman said.
The Marlboro Fire Department assisted at the scene.
In Brattleboro, a 3-year-old child was in a car with his parents when it crashed but none of the family members were injured. Trooper James Matthews said the crash took place around 2 p.m. on Exit 3 of Interstate 91.
According to Matthews, Christopher Bellemare, 34, of Naugatuck, Conn., lost control of the 2002 Ford Excursion he was driving while on the northbound off-ramp of the highway, resulting in a roll over crash.
Bellemare, his wife, Melissa and their 3-year-old son were not injured as they were all wearing seat belts, police said, but Bellemare was issued tickets for failure to maintain his vehicle in the lane of travel and driving with defective equipment.
The Brattleboro Fire Department and Rescue Squad also responded to the crash.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

International Stem Cell Corp. (ISCO) Narrows Q1 Loss, Grows Sales 19% 0 commentsMay 14, 2013 10:49 AM | about stocks: ISCO
International Stem Cell, a biotech company developing novel stem cell-based therapies, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
Quarterly revenues increased 19 percent to $1.29 million from $1.08 million reported in the first quarter of the year prior. Revenues for Lifeline Skin Care (NYSEARCA:LSC) increased by 19 percent while revenue for Lifeline Cell Technology (LCT) increased by 20 percent, accounting for 51 percent and 49 percent of total quarterly revenue, respectively.
ISCO posted a first-quarter loss of $0.02 per share, narrowed compared to a loss of $0.05 per share for the comparable quarter a year ago.
Gross margin improved by 410 basis points to 74.0 percent while general and administrative expenses reduced by 30 percent to $1.42 million.
Marketing expenses increased 3 percent to $0.51 million, primarily reflecting higher spending on advertising and promotions for the company's skin care business.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.91 million at March 31, 2013, compared to $0.65 million as of December 31, 2012.
" … the strong sales growth achieved by our subsidiaries confirms that the sales and marketing tactics we have been implementing are starting to deliver the results we anticipated and begin to partially offset our core Research and Development expenses," Dr. Andrey Semechkin, ISCO CEO and co-chairman stated in the press release. "At the same time we continue to challenge ourselves to become ever more efficient and this continued vigilance is reflected in both the reduced general and administrative expenses and increased gross margin."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I really love this product. The carousel makes it easy to get to what you are looking for. It came complete with meat cutting sissors & the knives are super sharp. I have to be careful with them since I've been know to cut myself more than once. I liked the cooking utensils that were included as well. Stir spoons, spatula, a slotted spoon & teaspoons. It has a nice art deco design & looks really good on the kitchen counter. You won't be disappointed.
Just about everything you could want at a nice price. Ship to store arrived before expected and we were notified as soon as it came in.
The Set in Carousel, 25-Piece is very nice. I keeps things in place and the kitchen counter area ver neat.
This is a nice set. Just a bit too much plastic for my taste, but it is still a nice set.
Love the look & has room for anything you need to cook
buy and enjoy

Mandan driver killed in crash on west main
The North Dakota Highway Patrol has identified a man killed in a crash in Mandan on Monday as
Thomas L. Joblinski of Mandan.
Jim Poolman, a former legislator and state insurancecommissioner, sustained serious injuries in the crash and is scheduled to have surgery on Friday.
Joblinski, 68, was driving a pickup on Main Street at 3:10 p.m. Monday, when the pickup crossed a concrete lane divider and struck a sport utility vehicle, then struck a van. The patrol said it happened at the intersection of Sixth Avenue and Main Street.
Poolman, 43, was the driver of the SUV. The driver of the van, 51-year-old Norberto Dejesus Montero of Mandan, was not injured.
The crash remains under investigation by the North Dakota Highway Patrol. Sgt. Steven Fischer said Joblinski may have had a medical issue that caused the crash.
"We don't know. It appears it may have been a medical condition on his part, but we're not 100 percent sure," Fischer said.
Nicole Poolman, Jim Poolman's wife, said he suffered a broken pelvis, a concussion and multiple cuts and bruises.

Lazard cuts Check Point (CHKP -1.9%) to Neutral; the firm says channel checks indicate share losses to Palo Alto Networks (PANW) are growing. Palo Alto's next-gen firewalls are causing headaches for incumbent firewall vendors Check Point, Cisco, and Juniper thanks to their ability to support deeper content analysis on an integrated platform. The company recently bragged of an 85% win rate in deals it competes for.

I have the following problem:

This happens both when editing in visual or in HTML mode.
I did some research already; it's not a magic quote issue, phpinfo() reports magic_quote_* to be off. I also changed my wp-config.php to contain:
define('DB_CHARSET', '');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
as I saw from another place that this might cause problems; my DB is in UTF-8. This made no difference anyway.
So... I'm at a loss... any help welcome,

We didn't want to decorate our 30 foot pine tree this year because it's a chore putting the lights on. I ordered these to brighten an area that would have had no lights this year. I purchased a 6 foot tree elsewhere so I have a group of 3 trees in different sizes. Very easy to install and very pretty lit up at night. Price was very reasonible and can be used for many years.
I bought these trees because I needed some color in my yard (I only had white lights the past season). They arrived quickly and were super-easy to assemble. Although they are a little flimsy, for the price you can't beat it. They are beautiful at night...... I've gotten several compliments from my neighbors, family and friends. May get more next year.
Well, let's see, 1st, I will start off saying that I love the trees with only one exception, THEY SHRUNK from when the first ones came out! They are alot shorter. I had purchased one 2 years ago and it was a lot taller back then, but they are still as beautiful. They could make these a little bit more sturdier in my opinion. My first one I purchased, the star broke on it. It don't seem to want to stand up either...... And if you don't store it just so, you might as well count on buying another one next year...
I purchased these this year because the picture on the box looks great... Well Walmart might want to rethink the construction of the trees. The stands are too big for both of the trees. I was going to return but I came up with a solution to fix it. I did not clip the spiral into the clips like it says. I tied the bottom sprial in 3 different spots with fishing line! Now they are perfect. But the only way it became perfect was by me using fishing line to fix it! so if you do purchase these, make sure you have fishing line on hand!~
These are gorgeous!
It took two minutes to install them.
The lights are very bright and beautiful.
I love them!
These trees are really cute! Especially for only $25! Can't beat that!
The only reason these didn't get 5 stars is because of the plugs...it doesn't allow you to connect (plug into each other) the decorations like most do.
These trees are so cheap, it's not even funny. You can barely put them up, the material doesn't even reach where it's supposed to hook on.
The customer service rep. was very nice and quick. Very happy with the service and the product.
I needed to replace my 6 year old spiral trees because some of the lights had burned out and was excited to find these at Walmart. I was so disappointed! In comparison to my old spiral trees, these are very cheaply made and extremely poor quality. The smaller tree was missing a rod, so I used one from my old spiral tree. I have to adjust the trees in the ground daily so they'll stand up properly.
I was soo exicted to recieve these and put them out! Was VERY disappointed!!! Half of one tree didn't light up at all, and the smaller tree was broken and wouldn't set up right :( My husband tried to fix the lights on the one that wouldn't light up, with no luck. Returned for a new set, and the second set was broken as well :( VERY DISSAPPOINTED!!!!
Good item, fairly easy sent up, except it took a couple tires to get the correct center poles together for the correct tree size (wish they had been marked 3' & 4' The bases of the two tree are the same size, making it impossible to connect the bootom of the 3' spiral to the hooks in the base, but some "twisty ties" did the trick
Put the to trees together and the larger one, only half the lights worked. The bottom of the trees do not clip properly to the plastic pieces. There's a reason this product is so inexpensive.
Looks nice but it is really light weight material. The parts come apart when you move it from place to place. Lights aren't well anchored so we used zip ties and to secure. Since it was such a good price the little bit of tweaking was OK.
We are enjoying these Adorable Spiral Lighted Christmas Trees on our Front Lawn for all to see. We would have preferred the 4" & 6" but these were not available.
well made easy to store im very happy with the quality for the little money they cost--- i had these before and the old set lasted eight years these are replacements
I Had An Old White Spiral Tree And Wanted Two New Multi Color Trees So I Went To Walmart's Web Site And Found The Set I Got And I Am Very Pleased With Them! They Seem To Work Good I've Only Had Them A Week..
I am very pleased with the trees. I wanted to add some color to my outdoor decorations and these trees did that very effectively. They are a better than I expected for the price I paid.
My son makes our front yard into a Disney land of lights and I wasn't sure about these trees...He loves them and I plan on ordering more for next year!!
Set up easily

Voters will resolve Lafourche conflict
Published: Tuesday, October 15, 2002 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, October 14, 2002 at 11:00 p.m.
"Why tempt the parish's fate?" was the title of the Daily Comet's editorial in its Oct. 11 edition. In reading the letter to the editor in the Oct. 13 edition of The Courier, Ida Smith's letter does give Marilyn Cordosi of Larose a legitimate reason to recall Parish President "Buzz" Breaux. At a time when all were anxious, frightened and mostly unsure of what a Category 4 hurricane can bring, a little reassurance from our parish president could have helped - even it if meant to tell people whether you leave or evacuate.
Daily Comet editorials can continue to publicly admonish our Lafourche Parish Council majority as the villains of our parish and not the parish president. Remember, the public voted in this council majority.
In Robert's Rule of Order "majority does rule in a democracy." The five are not always wrong just as the council minority and the parish president are not always right. The council five represent the outskirts of the parish, which in times past has not had its say in parish government. This is what the top echelon of the parish cannot accept.
So people, do not believe everything you read about the council majority in not trying to do what is right.
Through the court system recently, the courts have told the council five that a resolution is not law. Well, in listening to television and reading the newspapers, even President Bush used a resolution to ask Congress to plan an attack on Iraq. If resolutions are not sufficient in local government, why have them on the books?
This is another attempt to undermine the council majority. In the end, the appellate courts, the Metro-Crime Commission, and especially the Lafourche Parish voters will have their say. Next year's elections should be very interesting.

The Waitaki Recreation Centre has reported an improvement in
its finances.
The centre, which is operated by the Waitaki District Council
and is home to North Otago Basketball, bounced back from a
operating loss of $4731 in the 2011 financial year, and this
week announced that it had made an operating surplus of $3103
for the latest financial year (ended June 30, 2012).
Recreation centre manager Louise Fangupo said the year had
been ''challenging but successful''.
Ms Fangupo said the centre had received funding from the
council to allow it to continue to operate for another year.
''Had this been unsuccessful, the district would have been
left without an indoor sports facility, and in the case of
some groups, with no alternative venue in which to continue
their activities.''
The centre was also awarded $3385 of grants from Youthtown
and Dean Law over the past year.
The centre planned to upgrade its facilities over the next
three years, Ms Fangupo said.
''We are hoping to get some local business sponsors aboard,
apply to trust funds ... develop some new programmes, and
work more closely with ... businesses and organisations, such
as the Waitaki Aquatic Centre and Sport Waitaki.''

Up Close and PersonalLeo, what is your personal motto? Don't procrastinate. Years ago, I would set priorities on the work as it came in. Over time, I found the least important jobs became their own priority. Today, I address each issue or project as it comes.
If you weren't in this profession, what alternative occupation would you pursue?I would have to say that I would like to be a custom homebuilder.
Do you have any helpful hints to share with your peers?
Leo Kinney admits that Texas' unpredictable weather sometimes keeps him up at night.
"I'm a bit anxious about it when I'm away from the building," admits the property manager at Fort Worth, TX-based Cash America, the largest publicly held pawn-shop company in the world.
It's no wonder. Kinney has dealt with the consequences of Mother Nature's wrath firsthand on the job. Six months after he joined the company as facility manager, a devastating tornado swept through the city's business district, severely damaging the Cash America building.
As facility manager, it was Kinney's responsibility to deal with the effects of the tornado and the reconstruction of the building. He worked with a team to assess the damage, determine the loss, and create the design for the new building.
He says it was important that any deficient areas of the building were corrected during the reconstruction, including HVAC, indoor air quality, controls, energy management and efficiency, ADA-compliant fire alarms, and the elevators. "The building, though built 22 years ago, is today a brand new structure," he explains. "It's a very uncomplicated building to operate and one that would make any property manager proud."
Kinney says he learned a great deal about himself in the disaster's aftermath and offers this advice to his peers: "Don't sell yourself short. I did not know my own abilities until I was challenged by the tornado damage."
Since that time, numerous colleagues have asked him if Cash America had a disaster plan in place to facilitate recovery and cleanup.
"My answer has always been, 'Well, yes, but, not for anything like this,'" Kinney says, noting that while a tornado isn't a typical occurrence in the day in the life of a facilities professional, it does reflect the fact that the job lacks predictability.
Kinney and his staff of 13, which includes the building engineer, security officers, and maintenance staff, accept that no two days will be alike. They work on the philosophy that their No. 1 responsibility is to protect Cash America's facilities asset and to ensure that the building provides the company's employees and the other tenants with a safe, comfortable working environment.
As a result, the facilities team has learned to appreciate the important role of a 24-hour, on-site security team. "It allows me to have procedures in place that should eliminate many of the surprises that may occur during the night or the weekend," Kinney explains.
But surprises – like a major tornado – can pop up. You just have to be prepared, Kinney notes. "The job never ends, and it's never dull. There is always something coming your way. Understand that this is the nature of a property. Embrace it, for it will make you strong."

Watermelon is one of my favorite fruits and I never knew it went with so many different flavors! This was nice and summery and so easy to make! The sharp brie was a perfect combo with the sweet melon and salty prosciutto!

Silent Spring Institute, Inc.
Rating: 4 stars 1 1 review 254
29 Crafts Street Newton MA 02458 USA
SILENT SPRING INSTITUTE is a partnership of scientists and citizens concerned about potential environmental links to breast cancer. This collaboration began when activists from the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition questioned the elevated breast cancer incidence rates throughout Cape Cod and demanded a scientifically sound investigation. Silent Spring Institute is named in recognition of Rachel Carson, author of Silent Spring, the pioneering work that documented the adverse effects that pesticide use has on wildlife. The Institute is working to answer questions about the environment and women's health. By focusing on the environment, we seek to identify preventable causes of disease.

This organization funds ground-breaking scientific research into environmental causes of cancer - following through on Rachel Carson's work published in Silent Spring. That's all they do - and who knows, maybe they'll help people prevent getting cancer in the first place. Sure would be better than watching these painful deaths.

CeBIT 2009: Intel Announces 32-Nanometer Chip
Intel's Christian Morales presented plans for production of their new 32-nanometer chip at the CeBIT 2009 in Hannover. The faster, smaller and more energy-efficient chip should secure U.S. jobs for some time to come.
Morales, responsible as VP for sales and marketing in the EMEA area, detailed Intel's plans to produce the next generation chip. Thanks to 32-nanometer technology (a human hair is 70,000 nanometers thick in comparison), the chips should be smaller, faster and more energy-efficient.
Intel is contributing about $7 million over the next two years into the chip's production, focused on sites in Oregon, Arizona and New Mexico, thereby creating possibly 7,000 new jobs.
The 32-nanometer chips, code-named Westmere, are to be used in desktop systems and mobile devices. They are based on Intel's Nehalem-C architecture and will have integrated graphics capabilities. Production is planned for the fourth quarter of 2009. The chip is definitely in the running for the smallest ever, although Morales also indicated at the CeBIT press conference that a 22-nanometer chip is also in the making.

This Is a Religious War
Published: October 7, 2001
(Page 3 of 5)
According to the Inquisitor, Jesus' crime was revealing that salvation was possible but still allowing humans the freedom to refuse it. And this, to the Inquisitor, was a form of cruelty. When the truth involves the most important things imaginable -- the meaning of life, the fate of one's eternal soul, the difference between good and evil -- it is not enough to premise it on the capacity of human choice. That is too great a burden. Choice leads to unbelief or distraction or negligence or despair. What human beings really need is the certainty of truth, and they need to see it reflected in everything around them -- in the cultures in which they live, enveloping them in a seamless fabric of faith that helps them resist the terror of choice and the abyss of unbelief. This need is what the Inquisitor calls the ''fundamental secret of human nature.'' He explains: ''These pitiful creatures are concerned not only to find what one or the other can worship, but to find something that all would believe in and worship; what is essential is that all may be together in it. This craving for community of worship is the chief misery of every man individually and of all humanity since the beginning of time.''
This is the voice of fundamentalism. Faith cannot exist alone in a single person. Indeed, faith needs others for it to survive -- and the more complete the culture of faith, the wider it is, and the more total its infiltration of the world, the better. It is hard for us to wrap our minds around this today, but it is quite clear from the accounts of the Inquisition and, indeed, of the religious wars that continued to rage in Europe for nearly three centuries, that many of the fanatics who burned human beings at the stake were acting out of what they genuinely thought were the best interests of the victims. With the power of the state, they used fire, as opposed to simple execution, because it was thought to be spiritually cleansing. A few minutes of hideous torture on earth were deemed a small price to pay for helping such souls avoid eternal torture in the afterlife. Moreover, the example of such government-sponsored executions helped create a culture in which certain truths were reinforced and in which it was easier for more weak people to find faith. The burden of this duty to uphold the faith lay on the men required to torture, persecute and murder the unfaithful. And many of them believed, as no doubt some Islamic fundamentalists believe, that they were acting out of mercy and godliness.
This is the authentic voice of the Taliban. It also finds itself replicated in secular form. What, after all, were the totalitarian societies of Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia if not an exact replica of this kind of fusion of politics and ultimate meaning? Under Lenin's and Stalin's rules, the imminence of salvation through revolutionary consciousness was in perpetual danger of being undermined by those too weak to have faith -- the bourgeois or the kulaks or the intellectuals. So they had to be liquidated or purged. Similarly, it is easy for us to dismiss the Nazis as evil, as they surely were. It is harder for us to understand that in some twisted fashion, they truly believed that they were creating a new dawn for humanity, a place where all the doubts that freedom brings could be dispelled in a rapture of racial purity and destiny. Hence the destruction of all dissidents and the Jews -- carried out by fire as the Inquisitors had before, an act of purification different merely in its scale, efficiency and Godlessness.
Perhaps the most important thing for us to realize today is that the defeat of each of these fundamentalisms required a long and arduous effort. The conflict with Islamic fundamentalism is likely to take as long. For unlike Europe's religious wars, which taught Christians the futility of fighting to the death over something beyond human understanding and so immune to any definitive resolution, there has been no such educative conflict in the Muslim world. Only Iran and Afghanistan have experienced the full horror of revolutionary fundamentalism, and only Iran has so far seen reason to moderate to some extent. From everything we see, the lessons Europe learned in its bloody history have yet to be absorbed within the Muslim world. There, as in 16th-century Europe, the promise of purity and salvation seems far more enticing than the mundane allure of mere peace. That means that we are not at the end of this conflict but in its very early stages.
America is not a neophyte in this struggle. the United States has seen several waves of religious fervor since its founding. But American evangelicalism has always kept its distance from governmental power. The Christian separation between what is God's and what is Caesar's -- drawn from the Gospels -- helped restrain the fundamentalist temptation. The last few decades have proved an exception, however. As modernity advanced, and the certitudes of fundamentalist faith seemed mocked by an increasingly liberal society, evangelicals mobilized and entered politics. Their faith sharpened, their zeal intensified, the temptation to fuse political and religious authority beckoned more insistently.

If you've been wondering why I've written so much about the LibDems on this blog, now you know. Anyone who's ever worked professionally with them knows that they are a bunch of unprincipled, hypocritical liars who claim the moral high ground as they behave with the morals of - as David Blunkett put it this morning on the Today programme - a harlot.
Saying one thing and doing another is their stock in trade; and saying one thing to one group and something opposite to another is par for their course.
The good thing is that, now that they have been exposed for what they are, the game is up.

As the sun rose across the Texas Panhandle, many residents awake to assess the damage of last night's storm. Broken windows and hail-damaged cars are some of the items that will be reported to insurance companies.
"I think this will be the costliest amount in damage in Amarillo," Allstate Insurance agent Eric Johnigan said. "Bigger than the 2004 storm, only because this storm covered a larger area."
Johnigan asked customers to be understanding. "We are mobilizing our catastrophe units to help with claims."
According to Allstate's website, "the Allstate National Catastrophe Team meets the various needs of customers affected by weather events. These units will come from Dallas or Oklahoma City."
If customers make repairs beforehand, Johnigan advised them to keep receipts of the repairs, contact their agent and, most of all, to be patient.

Tuesday Player Matchups: Justin Time, Verlander Shines
I hope you had a nice July 4th weekend. I am back and refreshed and ready to win some Fan Duels! I've found a few historical matchups to peruse. I hope it helps!
Justin Verlander: What can you really say about Verlander that hasn't been said already? The guy has been unbelievably dominant and you ask that Elias fellow you'll see that he's done some pretty remarkable pitching. In June he went 6-0 with a .92 ERA and went over 7 innings in every start. The Angels have also allowed 12 FanDuel points on average to pitchers in the last 30 days. If you can afford him, he's as much of a lock as you can find.
Wandy Rodriguez: WandRod has been getting it done of late going 5-1 in his last 9 starts with a 1.77 ERA. The Pirates aren't as rotten as usual, but they are still middle of the pack.
Cole Hamels: The Marlins are just rotten right now. In the last month pitchers that have faced them are averaging 13.6 FanDuel points a game. That ain't too bad. Oh, and Cole Hamels is quite good.
Felix Hernandez: He hasn't been his dominant self, but his less than dominant self is pretty dominant. And when he faces the light hitting A's (no, that doesn't mean they are so good they can hit light) he is 11-4 with a 2.61 ERA. And just this year he has faced them twice and won both times giving up 2 runs.
Lance Berkman: Big Cougar is at it again. He's 5 for his last 17 with 4 homers and 7 RBIs. 18 of his 22 homers have come of righties and he's batting .308 as a lefty vs. .266 as a righty. Edinson Volquez happens to be a right hander and Berkman is 3 for 8 off him with 5 walks.
Ryan Howard: Chris Volstad has been pitching well lately, but he gets absolutely hammered by RyHo. He is 12 for 24 off him with a staggering 7 home runs.
Robinson Cano: Cano is 8 for his last 23 with 3 doubles and 3 triples! He is also 2 for 3 off Carlos Carrasco.
Adam Lind: Lind has faced Jon Lester 18 times and only managed 3 hits and 8 strike outs.
Aaron Hill: Like Lind, Hill has trouble against Lester, but his number are even worse at 2 for 32 with 9 K's. Steer clear.
Billy Butler: Moobs owns Jake Peavy, and not on his fantasy team. He's 4 for 10 off Peavy, which is good, but he has 3 home runs out of those 4 hits.
Victor Martinez: Paying the money for VMart is nothing like shopping at KMart, this dude is Brooks Brothers and well worth it. He is 8 for his last 24 and 9 for 18 against Dan Haren.
Ronny Paulino: He doesn't get that many starts, but has been hitting well when he does. He is 6 for his last 11 and faces Ted Lilly who he is 8 for 16 against with 2 homers. Hopefully that will get him in the starting lineup.

Second Trimester 1stTrimester 3rd Trimester
105 days to go...
Your baby todayHere the baby's head is looking down toward the chest. The right arm is bent at the elbow to lie across the neck, the left arm is only just visible as it is partly in shadow, and finally the tip of a knee can be seen tucked up just below the right forearm.
You can expect to be subjected to a few unwelcome birth stories, whether you want to hear them or not!
It appears to be a rite of passage for some women to describe the birth of their babies in minute detail, literally giving an hour-by-hour account. For these women, it appears to be part of the recovery process and they like nothing better than a new audience, and, especially, a woman who is pregnant for the first time. So you'll no doubt find yourself on the receiving end of a few birth horror stories-sometimes from complete strangers!
These women may feel it's their duty to "warn" you about the "reality" of childbirth, and what you should and shouldn't do-for example, "definitely have an epidural, otherwise the pain is horrendous." Remember that every woman's experience is different and stay focused on your own birth plan. Childbirth is undoubtedly difficult for some women, while others have straightforward deliveries, without complications. Tell the story-teller you'd rather not hear the gory details but promise to book a date for a joint debrief once your baby is born!
Mother's help
The prospect of giving birth and then taking care of a newborn can be daunting. For some moms, hiring a doula is the perfect way to ensure a gentle progression from pregnancy to motherhood.
Doulas are women who "mother the mother" by providing emotional and physical (but nonmedical) support before, during, and after childbirth. Widespread research shows that the presence of a doula can help you have a shorter, easier birth, making it less likely that you'll need pain relief or medical intervention (including an epidural or cesarean). To find out more about hiring a doula, visit dona.org/mothers/find_a_doula.php.
Time To Think About
Birth partners
The benefits of having a supportive birth partner are indisputable, so it's a good idea to think about it now.
- Research shows that women who receive continuous emotional and physical encouragement during labor are less likely to need pain relief or medical intervention such as an epidural, assisted delivery, or cesarean, and should experience a shorter labor.
- Women who feel their birth partner was supportive are more likely to view their birth in a positive light, and to take to motherhood and breast-feeding easily, and are less prone to postpartum depression.
- Your birth partner doesn't have to be the baby's father (although he may be there as well); in fact, studies indicate that a woman may do the job better. A close female friend who's had her own children could be ideal; your mom is another option.
- You could consider hiring a doula (see "Mother's help" at left).

Reviews for Community Access Unlimited Inc
I am a former Director of the NJ Division of Youth and Family Services (DYFS) who has continued to work with older at-risk adolescents transitioning to young adulthood. Such youths leave the child welfare system without a place to live, without a meaningful job and, most importantly, without a stable family on which to rely for lifelong advice, guidance and support. From my personal experience in mentoring numerous older adolescents, I know how important it is for such youths to form long-term family-like relationships with caring adults whom they trust and to whom they can turn for assistance throughout their lives. Unless they are offered permanency options, their ability to succeed and to lead self-sufficient, independent lives as responsible young adults will be seriously jeopardized. Community Access Unlimited (CAU) has earned a well-deserved reputation as a pioneer provider of quality support services to at-risk older youths. It offers an impressive continuum of services for older youths with no stable family on which to rely and assist them in forming permanent relationships with reliable adults who can provide them with love, direction and assistance. I have been a volunteer at CAU for many decades, support many of its community-based events, make annual contributions and mentor some of its older adolescents. One homeless young man whom I introduced to CAU's Transitional Opportunity Program (TOP) at the age of 18 has participated in the treatment, life-skills training and related support services provided by CAU. He recently moved to his own apartment, well-equipped and prepared to live a self-sufficient life. He is now 23 years old. Without CAU's assistance, he might still be homeless and lacking the ability to support himself. I am an avid admirer of the role that CAU plays in the lives of these youth.

Polk Deputy Who Was Hit by Car is Recovering
Published: Saturday, October 6, 2012 at 8:59 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, October 6, 2012 at 8:59 p.m.
The Polk County deputy who was hit by a vehicle Friday morning while conducting a traffic stop on Interstate 4 was released from Lakeland Regional Medical Center on Saturday.
Master Deputy Nick Taylor was struck by a vehicle on I-4 near County Road 557, the Polk County Sheriff's Office said.
As Taylor, 45, was standing alongside the highway conducting the traffic stop, a gold 2003 Chevrolet Malibu, driven by Mary Fow, hit a semi-tractor trailer and a Ford F-150 that were all traveling on eastbound lanes.
The impacts sent the out-of-control Malibu careening to the side of the road, hitting Taylor and his department-issued motorcycle, which was parked beside him.
Taylor has worked for the Polk County Sheriff's Office for 21 years.

COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) - The son late Frank Lumpkin Jr., a prominent Columbus businessman faces an aggravated assault charge after authorities say he shot a teenager he found in his stolen car.
According to authorities, 50-year-old Frank Lumpkin III was released
from jail on $2,500 bond.
Police said he is accused of shooting a 16-year-old in the side
with a 9 mm pistol Tuesday night at a gas station.
Lumpkin's lawyer, Frank Martin, said Lumpkin shouldn't have been charged.
Martin said Lumpkin got into an argument with the teen when he
saw the teen driving his wife's stolen SUV.
Martin said Lumpkin accidentally fired a shot as the teen tried to escape and wrecked the SUV.

Six months before the Summer Games, American athletes are starting to worry. Athens just doesn't seem safe from afar, despite the most expensive security plan ever devised for an Olympics.
Among the most nervous are athletes who might be the biggest targets for terrorists - NBA stars on the U.S. basketball team.
"The players are definitely concerned," said Jermaine O'Neal of the Indiana Pacers. "It definitely sits on your mind. If you wanted to send a message to the world, what better place is there to do it?"
Basketball players and other athletes told The Associated Press they are especially worried because the Games will be held close to the Middle East in a country with a strong undercurrent of anti-American sentiment.
They're also not sure the $750 million plan to protect athletes will be enough. The cost is three times what was spent on the 2000 Sydney Games.
"There will be bomb-sniffing dogs and shady characters. You just hope they do everything they can," Seattle SuperSonics guard Ray Allen said. "From the American side, there's only so much we can do as far as security. They have to take care of their part before we get there."
Allen said he is also concerned about plans to house the Dream Team on the Queen Mary 2 in an Athens harbor.
"The only thing I can think of is the battleship that got blown up," Allen said, referring to the USS Cole, which was bombed in Yemen in 2000. "They came up on the side in a little boat."
U.S. security officials say they have confidence in the security plan, but they admit there are no guarantees everyone will be safe.

The U.S. Senate passed a key defense bill Thursday that included outlays for the contentious program of transferring Marines to Guam from Okinawa and the installation of an anti-ballistic missile radar in Japan.
The move paved the way for the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal 2014 to take effect once it has been signed by President Barack Obama. The House of Representatives passed the bill last week.
The act includes an $86 million outlay for the transfer of Marines to Guam from the southern Japan prefecture. More precisely, the budget will be used to refurbish hangars at the Andersen Air Force base in the U.S. territory so Marines can also use the airfield.
Under the current relocation plan, about 9,000 of the 19,000 Marines stationed in Okinawa are to be transferred out of Japan and of those about 4,000 would be moved to Guam, and the remainder to Hawaii and Australia.
The act also covers a budget of $15 million that will be used to install X-band radar at a Japanese Air Self-Defense Force base in Kyoto Prefecture, western Japan.
The planned radar installation at the base on the Sea of Japan coast is part of efforts aimed at dealing with threats from North Korea's long-range missile program.
The Japanese government provided more than $800 million for the Okinawa-Guam Marines relocation project but U.S. Congress put on hold the disbursement of most of the amount as influential lawmakers questioned its feasibility.
But the act allowed the use of $114 million out of the Japanese fund this time.
Japan and the United States agreed to move the U.S. Marines from Okinawa to reduce the burden on the prefecture, which hosts the bulk of U.S. military facilities in Japan.
Japan's Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera welcomed the move in Tokyo on Friday.
"We have repeatedly asked U.S. congressional people concerned to properly address the budget for the transfer to Guam on their end. With the one on the U.S. side, the transfer to Guam will finally be able to go ahead," Onodera told reporters.
"As we have made plans for the return of land for Futenma and bases south of Kadena on the basis of this, it is a matter we are happy to welcome," he said.
Both governments confirmed a plan in October that the relocation of Okinawa-stationed Marines to Guam will start in the first half of the 2020s and Japan will shoulder up to $2.8 billion of the total project size of $8.6 billion.

The upbeat track seriously makes me what to go out and dance! Britney comes in right at the beginning of the first verse and says the following with a bit of an accent: "When you hear us the club, you gotta turn this shit up / you gotta turn that shit / You gotta turn that shit up / When we up in the club, all eyes on us / all eyes on us / all eyes on us."
Occasionally, you here the following as well, "You are now rocking with Will.I.Am and Britney, bitch!" The "Britney, bitch" part is an actual soundbite from her "Gimme More" hit from 2007. In the chorus, the both sing, "I wanna scream and shout, and let it all out". The new song will be available to download next week but in the meantime, give it a listen below!
