text: This video opened the sermon at church on Sunday and the moment I saw the little boy standing on the beach, I had tears in my eyes. I used a lot of energy to keep myself from completely sobbing during the whole video. It made me think of my dear friend, Shontel, who is pursuing adoption fiercely right now, anxiously awaiting a child from Ethiopia someday.

Your first 4th of July was spent at
our Canadian friend's house eating paella!
Strange, but true.
You were of course, dressed for the occasion...
In other exciting news, we bought a (new-to-us) car!
The Explorer Sport that I bought back in 2003 finally bit the dust.
Actually it blew a head gasket.
After much searching, we decided to get another SUV for the family!
After test-driving several cars, we settled on the Honda Pilot!
We also sold the Explorer.
The buyer is a 16-year-old who was buying his first car.
He's going to spend the summer working on the engine.
It was so cute, his mom came with him and brought the video camera.
Her oldest child (of five), and a proud moment for her!
I am already freaking out about you driving away
in a car by yourself for the first time!
Milestone of the week:
You love playing peek-a-boo!
When you get out of the tub,
and you are laying there while I dry you off,
you'll pull the towel over your face.
And I'll say "Where's Matilda? Where's the baby?"
And then you pull the towel down to reveal your face.
It is SO cute.
Favorite photo of the week...

The Munby Fellowship was founded in memory of the late Alan Noel Latimer Munby, a greatly respected scholar in the field of bibliography, especially in the history of the book trade and of book-collecting, to which his series of Phillipps studies is a most distinguished contribution. He was for many years Librarian of King's College, Cambridge, and a Syndic of Cambridge University Library, and gave generously of his time and expertise to all who asked for his advice and help in pursuit of their researches.
The object of the Munby Fellowship is to continue his work by sponsoring bibliographical research based in the first instance on the collections of the libraries of Cambridge, and likely to be of benefit also, in the broadest sense, to scholars using those collections in the future. Within that general framework there are no restrictions on the choice of research subject which may concern printed or manuscript material, in any language.
The Fellowship is normally tenable for ten months (1 October-31 July) and there is a salary of about £32,267 (pro rata). The Munby Fellow will be given work space in the University Library and will enjoy access to the Library's collections on the same terms as the members of its permanent staff. A modest amount of help with research expenses is available. The Fellow will be expected to submit a written report on the progress of the research project during the second half of the tenure of the Fellowship and this report may form the basis of an informal discussion between the Electors to the Fellowship and the Fellow. The Fellow will not be called upon to undertake any routine departmental or other staff duties or responsibilities within the Library.
There will normally be available to the Munby Fellow a non-stipendiary Research or Visiting Fellowship at Darwin College for the period of tenure of the Munby Fellowship. Darwin College is a graduate college of about 80 Fellows and over 450 graduate students. The Master is Mary Fowler. If he/she takes up the Darwin Fellowship, the Munby Fellow is expected to participate fully in the College's intellectual and social life. He/she would be a member of the Governing Body, and would be entitled to take meals without payment in the College. The College would, if requested, give practical, but not financial, help in finding accommodation.
The Munby Fellowship is open to graduates in any discipline, men or women, of any university or nationality. Preference will be given to scholars at post-doctoral or an equivalent level. The offer of the Fellowship to any foreign national (other than a citizen of the EU or Gibraltar) or to any Commonwealth citizen would be subject to the issue of a work permit by the Department of Employment.
The Fellowship is normally advertised each summer for a post beginning in October the following year. More details are available at www.lib.cam.ac.uk/Vacancies. Election to the Fellowship is normally made by early January of the year of the date of commencement of the Fellowship. There are no interviews.

I'm scared. Very scared. A couple months from now, I'll be released out into the world, my degree like a note pinned to my shirt saying, "Be gentle. I'm an artist." But also, "Be cruel. I went to school, and this is what I have to show for it." Of course, this isn't the case. I also have my work, that which I've done, and that which I'm doing and will continue to do when I leave.
Why am I talking about my future? Because, damn it, I want to be Harrell Fletcher when I grow up. The academic in me wants to scoff at every idea he has, but the artist in me says, "yes, me too." I don't know what the hell to do. I want to make work that gives publics the opportunity to think differently, and I want to survive. Can I make a book of bug drawings, share it with people, and make a living? Can I collaborate with Miranda July to make a website of deceptively simple art ideas, fill said website with user-generated content, and pay my bills?
If it isn't glaringly obvious by now, I'm scared because I don't think I can be who I want to be and survive. And yet, here's Harrell Fletcher, surviving, teaching, creating Masters programs, brilliantly creating work that engages both the art nut and non-art public. To me, it's magic. Pure and simple. It doesn't make sense to the Protestant work ethic/guilt trip of my upbringing.
"Largely I think of what I do as an artist as just pointing to things that I think are interesting so that other people will notice and appreciate them too." He says that. That son of a bitch. Show me how this works. Please. I'm talking to whoever is reading. Help me figure this out. If there's a "How To Be Harrell Fletcher" booklet out there, I want to read it.
And didn't I just read it?
Damn it, I think I need to think about this some more. Oh, ego!

The Los Angeles City Council Tuesday tentatively approved a proposal to require employers in Los Angeles to offer at least six days of paid sick leave to workers — twice the amount mandated by the state.
The council voted 13-1 in favor of raising the mandated paid sick leave time from 24 hours to 48 hours per calendar year starting July 1. Under amendments also tentatively approved Tuesday, small businesses would get an extra year to comply with the mandate.
The city attorney still needs to craft the wording of the ordinance and bring the draft back for another round of discussion and votes.
"This is not only the right thing to do, it's the smart thing to do," said Councilman Curren Price, who chairs the Economic Development Committee that advanced the plan. "Employees who come to work sick are unproductive and risk spreading (illness) to not only co-workers but to customers."
Councilman Paul Koretz said the policy would lead to a "a healthier workforce."
"I think this makes tremendous sense," he said.
Supporters of the expanded paid sick leave policy say it would especially benefit low-income workers who often are forced to go to work when sick in order to keep food on the table.
Councilman Mitch Englander cast the dissenting vote on the policy.
A proposal by Councilman David Ryu to exempt small businesses from the expanded paid sick leave mandate was rejected 8-6 by the council. The six days would be offered to employees who have worked at least 30 days within a year, with employers required to provide the leave upfront or through an accrual process of one hour for every 30 hours worked.
Under the plan, the accrued paid sick leave could be carried over to the next year. Employers would be able to cap the accrued hours at 72, but they could also have a higher cap or set no cap at all.
Under the proposal, employers who already offer 48 hours of paid time off — which are hours that can be used for sickness, personal time off or vacation — would not need to increase the amount of time off they make available.
Council aides said the ordinance language would need to be approved by May in order for the proposal to go into effect by the intended deadline of July 1. That is also the day the first phase of the gradual minimum wage hike to $15 per hour is set to go into effect, with large businesses scheduled to begin paying employees at least $10.50 an hour.
Backers of the minimum wage had pushed for the increased paid sick leave to be included in that law, but some members of the business community raised concerns, saying the issue needed more study.

RC11 – new, revolutionary "in-mould technology", combining very stiff and very soft parts in one piece. The black part is very stiff (E-module 2000), the green part is soft (E-module 350). The RC11 gives you a direct-lateral performance (never seen before), without loosing flex and comfort. The boot is extremely stiff, where it should be and soft, where it needs to be. And the new technics gives you a lot of adjustment-possibilities (for every rider's style).
RC11 highlights:
* new cuff with "in mould technology". The cuff comes not fully overlapped, but more than the old cuff on RC10 boots, coming from detailed testing. Prevents Outer-Tongue side-movement. Features best harmonic and more direct flex.
* the cuff comes higher outside and a litte bit higher inside (for better pressure dissipation). The Shoxxter Straps run over the cuff (both inside and outside)
* new cuff-buckle positions, adjustable via TX25 screws
* re-designed Outer-Tongue with ?improved tooth part position and new inside-surface-shape
* new superstiff material (for Tongues and cuffs) with best notch impact strength
* new standard heel adapter, stiffer and lighter, new profile
* new race heel adapter (-4,5mm height / exactly the same height like NW) for brutal direct lateral boot-binding connection
* 3 different forward flex springs (easy to change)
soft/fluorescent yellow
superstiff/fluorescent orange
* new harder coated surface on the tooth parts
* improved liners (lighter, even better optics, stronger….)
* improved liner tongues (reduced sharp edges, softer on the top-flexpart)
* improved Forward Flex mech-box

Now I see that it was wholly good." -Chase McBride

As the job market recovers, a unique phenomenon is beginning to happen, and one expert warns it could cost you money. "As people who have been looking for work a long time start to get back into the workforce, many of them are so happy just to get a job that they sometimes accept a lower salary than they have to," said Bill Humbert, recruiting consultant and author of "RecruiterGuy's Guide to Finding a Job" (www.recruiterguy.com). "Some employers feel that they can probably get away with a lowball offer, and many job hunters will grab it just so they can have a job. The truth is there are ways to get the job and still get what you want."
"Keep in mind that salary negotiation is more art than science, so these tips may not always apply," Humbert added. "Many hourly workers don't have as much flexibility on pay, and some companies have policies that would require you to adjust the script a little to fit those situations. The key thing to remember is that you don't have to give them a salary range that would jeopardize your earning potential, and that you don't have to accept their first offer most of the time.
Remember that they are interviewing you because they need to fill that position. It's important to the company to have someone in that job, and while they are considering you, they aren't doing you a favor. They need what you have to offer, so you should get the best offer out of them that is possible."

Marcia Johnson started her acting career in 1983 on the CBC TV series "Hangin' In" about a youth drop in centre. Her single line 'I'm bringing my roommate Bobby' laid the foundation fer her rich and varied career.
Next came several industrial films or 'industrials' as they're known. These are in-house training films for companies and organizations. Though they paid well, Marcia soon grew tired of the stilted writing and awkward directing. Plus, she always had to provide her own wardrobe.
Marcia's petite frame made her a natural for children's theatre. She spent several years in a van, unloading set pieces into school gyms and changing in janitors' closets. More touring followed with feminist theatre collective A Company of Sirens. This is where Marcia first started writing and she still continues to act.
In August 2012, Marcia Johnson accepted the position of Vice President of Women Playwrights International.

Andi - posted on 04/21/2009 ( 3 moms have responded )
So... I am trying the "put your baby down while drousy but still awake, let him cry and go back in every 10 min to pat/sush/kiss but don't pick up" problem is, he keeps rolling over and throwing a HUGE fit! We have a good day routine that he is used to and does really well. Then we have a bedtime routine of bath, song/rock then I lay him down. I used to get him whenever he would cry and rock/breastfeed him or just let him sleep with us but I am trying to make him sleep on his own without getting up so much during the night. I just started trying to put him down while still kind of awake and leave. Then he starts crying. ALOT!Whenever I go back in hes on his tummy, turned around, and trying to sit up. I just don't see how he could possibly fall asleep that way. It seems like he is getting too worked up and letting him "cry it out" is not going to work. HELP!

To my amazing followers,
I have officially created an indiegogo campaign to raise money to start The Dead in Dixon Indie Horror Film Festival. While my main goal with this is to show support to the indie horror film makers that I have met; I am also looking forward to shooting a film as well. This truly is not a project to where I stand to profit financially especially in the first year and I really am not concerned with a big financial payday, just the ability to support the festival from year to year moving forward.
Unfortunately to get the first year event off the ground it will require some financial support from my friends and followers; something I really hate to do is ask for money however in this case I feel that it is for a good cause and it will not be required from year to year after I meet my goal. Once I have the equipment I will be able to focus more on the entertainment side of the event which is the best part right? I would love to believe everyone that is following my blog on twitter and facebook read my blog and with that being said if everyone donated $5.00 my campaign would pretty much be complete.
I have been working very hard over the last month to get the website up and shared with everyone, securing some indie rock bands and special guest celebs. I have realized the most important thing is the film makers; the film makers that I support are the special guests and those are the people I would like to honor during the festival. I do understand other festivals and cons have big name guests to show up in order to gain a following and I just can't match that in the first year unless I meet my campaign goal.
I do understand that money is not a subject people like to talk about and I wouldn't ask if I didn't find this very important to me. I will work hard securing sponsors and vendors for the event and hopefully everyone that reads this understands where my loyalties truly lie. To the film makers and everyone that has worked hard to bring awesome indie horror films and hopefully all true indie horror film lovers will support this film festival because I understand what being independent is all about.
I hope to have a trailer for the film up in the next week or so as well as my very own video, now I am a big ugly man so that may turn people away.. this is a horror community so it shouldn't be too bad!

Thank you for your time and your support

Tiny Sterling Bike Necklace with Hearts
Yet another variation on the newly debuted Wee Bike necklace! This time, the sterling silver bike is adorned with two teeny brass hearts. I created the original bike and then had it cast, but each one is finished differently so no two are identical! It is solid sterling silver and hangs on a 16 inch sterling silver chain. I then solder on the little hearts and hammered everything to perfection. The bike is super shiny, and the hearts have a frosted finish to make them really pop!

If you've ever had your checked luggage stolen, damaged, lost or otherwise mishandled while flying, you probably know you're not alone. But what you might not know is how often the Transportation Security Administration actually admits wrongdoing and compensates unhappy travelers in those cases. Enlightenment is here: A new report says the TSA has forked over about $3 million in the last five years for such claims. [More]

U.S. Airlines Were Tardy, Bumped More Passengers And Lost A Bunch Of Bags In 2014
There's bad news, and then there's the slightly less bad news: In 2014, passengers suffered as airlines were on-time less often, lost bags at a higher rate and bumped more people than the year before. But at least airlines canceled fewer flights, and there were fewer lengthy delays leaving travelers stranded on the tarmac, so there's that. [More]
Traveler Gets Luggage Back From Airport's Lost & Found 20 Years After Plane Trip

Airlines Mishandled Fewer Bags Last Year Maybe Because We Hate Paying To Check Them
The good news is that the Department of Transportation says airlines are mishandling fewer bags than before, with a nice little 8% drop in the amount of "lost, damaged, delayed or pilfered" pieces of luggage from 2011 to 2012. But before we go slapping airlines on the back with a hearty "good job!" pat, perhaps it's just because passengers are keeping their personal effects out of the hands of baggage handlers. [More]
Apparently, lying to customers is an integral part of United's strategy for dealing with frustrated travelers.

The Receipt Bank software will merge similar items which have same date, supplier and total amount.
This is to avoid creating duplicates in your Receipt Bank account or accounting software. If you would like to un-merge your items for any reason please follow these instructions.
1. Login to your account and navigate to your Inbox
2. Find the item (you might like to use the 'Filter' option here)
3. Click on the item and will lead you to the "item edit page" and click on the "Unmerge" button.
5. Confirm and find them in your Inbox.
There's a slight difference between 'Un-merge' and 'Split' options in Receipt Bank:
- The 'Split' function allows you to split up multiple items, that have been accidently sent in as a single item. Here, you manually input the data and the image doesn't split
- Merged items are ones that the Receipt Bank's software has merged together because they have the same supplier, date and total. With 'Un-merge' you divide the items exactly as they were sent originally and each one has its own image.
If your items are in the Archive, please unarchive them first. This is how!
Then you'll be able to un-merge them seamlessly!

A healthy dinner menu for the week should include a balanced variety of whole, natural foods. Each dinner should have some protein, some healthy fat, a small amount of carbohydrates, and some vegetables. This will round out your day's energy intake, and provide you with vitamins, minerals and fiber.
Start with Seafood
ChooseMyPlate.gov recommends that you eat at least 8 ounces of cooked seafood per week. Fish and shellfish contain significant amounts of protein and healthy fats, and can be included in a versatile range of meals. Grill salmon in olive oil with lemon and herbs, and serve it with roasted vegetables and brown rice. You can skewer shelled shrimp with your favorite vegetables and barbecue them, then serve with salad greens, walnuts and balsamic vinegar.
Bring Out the Beef
Beef is high in protein, and choosing lean cuts makes it a healthy dinner option. Lean ground beef can be mixed with kidney beans, canned tomatoes and herbs for a tasty chilli con carne, topped with low-fat cheese or sour cream to get in a serving of dairy. If you have the time, roast beef and roasted vegetables served with mashed sweet potato is a filling and nutritious meal that will also likely yield tasty leftovers for the next day.
Chow Down on Chicken
Chicken is a good source of protein, and it is lower in saturated fat than many other meats, particularly if you cook the breast without the skin. Dice chicken breast with your favorite vegetables, then stir-fry them in reduced-fat coconut milk and spices and serve over brown rice for a tasty main course. Or shred cooked chicken breast and combine with eggs, mushrooms, spinach and low-fat cheese for a tasty and nutritious dinner omelette.
Layer On the Legumes
If you are vegetarian, or if you want to avoid eating meat every day, legumes are another excellent source of protein. You can whip up lentils, spices and some pureed vegetables into a hearty dahl, served with crusty whole-grain bread. Or you can mash up black beans and kidney beans, then mix them with herbs, slivered onion and egg whites to make healthy burger patties. Serve with tomato, lettuce and beetroot on whole-grain buns or tortillas.

Scrima says experience counts
This is pretty funny, actually.
While Scrima then said he has "maintained a positive campaign" he took a shot at Reilly in an interview this week.
"He has no record in the City of Waukesha government," Scrima said. "Therefore he's an unknown. When the citizens look at me they see tangible results."
When told that he was a newcomer four years ago when he defeated the incumbent Larry Nelson and he didn't have a "record" Scrima didn't say how that's any different.
By the way, Shawn Reilly has over twenty years of experience working for city governments. From his biography:
I have a long history of working for and with municipalities. I am the Attorney for the Village of Mukwonago and Village of Eagle. I have been the attorney for Mukwonago since 1992 and the attorney for Eagle since 1996.
Scrima's experience before taking office was working for his dad.
By the way, let's give credit where it's due. This is probably Christopher Kuhagen's best article on Waukesha politics, and it probably landed him on Scrima's enemies list.

Magnesium oxide better known as magnesia, occurs naturally in metamorphic rocks. It is produced by burning a magnesium ribbon which then oxidises in a bright white light, leaving behind a white powder.

Five Goals for a Fairtrade Town
The purpose of a Fairtrade Town is to contribute to the Fairtade Foundation's aim of tackling poverty by enabling disadvantaged producers from poor countries to receive a better deal, through encouraging support for the Fairtrade Mark.
In order to fulfil this aim by becoming a Fairtrade Town, City, Village, Island, Borough, County or Zone* the following five goals must be realised and an application submitted to the Fairtrade Foundation. If approved a signed and dated certificate will be presented by the Fairtrade Foundation.
The local council must pass a resolution supporting Fairtrade, and serve Fairtrade coffee and tea at its meetings and in offices and canteens.
A range of Fairtrade products must be readily available in the area's shops and served in local cafés and catering establishments.
Fairtrade products must be used by a number of local work places educational establishments, faith communities and other community organisations. A flagship employer is required for populations over 100,000. However if your community is smaller than this, you may still wish to have a flagship employer.
Attract media coverage and organise events to gain popular support for the campaign.
A local Fairtrade steering group must meet regularly to ensure continued commitment to Fairtrade Town status. The composition of your steering group should be representative of your community overall.
For further information on the Five Goals and how to make an application to become a Faitrade Town visit the Fairtrade Towns section on the Fairtrade Foundation's website
* For simplicity we refer to all these seven categories as Fairtrade Towns.

While working with a client one day, I got an interesting visual from my Crew. They showed me a shrine in this woman's sphere – call it her mind, spirit, soul, etc. In her being, there was this beautiful little vestibule surrounded with incense, flowers, and other offerings.
And inside it stood the image of the man who she was having problems with. This individual was sending psychic attacks against her and her family, and in general just making a massive energetic nuisance of himself.
As soon as she was done telling me what was on her mind, I pointed out this visual. I asked her to pull this image into her reality and get it in front of her where she could see and change it.
Once she had a grip on it, I asked her if she would like to take the image of this douchebag out of her shrine and toss it out the window, because this guy definitely did not belong there! She did, and then I asked her to put an image of herself in there.
This seemed a little difficult, but she did it, and some of the issues she was having eased.
So why is this important? In that moment, my Crew pointed out to me that we all have this little shrine inside of us. It's a place of worship, and of reflection. It's a place where we give attention to those individuals who have the most influence in our lives.
It's supposed to be a wonderful place of peace, relaxation, and gratitude – but more often than not it's a place of frustration and resentment. Why? Because we are not in the place of honor and power. We have put other people there.
Sometimes it's innocent enough – I checked in with my own shrine in a deep meditation after that client call, and found Corey, my husband, in that place of power. We've been together since I was 16, and I've followed his lead in most things. He's always wanted me to do more, be more, and explore everything that is me, but having him in that place of power inside me was MUCH safer than putting myself there.
When I moved that image aside (not tossing it out the window like my client – just sliding his representation aside on the altar) my image was right behind him. So I had put myself in second place, which wasn't too bad. It was fairly easy to pull my image into the power position and it was an amazing experience.
But I've talked to other women who have their husbands in that power position. And behind him is their father. And behind him is their mother. And behind her is the MIL. And behind the MIL is that teacher from way back when who she looked up to.
Even if the relationships were not toxic, this isn't how this should work. Your personal power should not be buried so deeply behind the opinions and energies of other people in your life, no matter how much they love you and how well-meaning they are.
A really big problem comes in when the people represented in your shrine ARE toxic, like in the case of my client. This guy had messed with my client so much that even though he should never have made it to her shine at all, he'd usurped her Inner Power and placed himself there – and she'd let him do it.
This is the shitty part, but it has to be said that if someone is in that position of power in your shrine, you allowed them to be there. Nobody can force their way into that position, no matter who they are and how much "control" they have in your life.
But this is one reason why abuse survivors have such a hard healing process – because so often the person who abused them was a predator on ALL levels, and that included emotionally AND spiritually. These people convince us that they are the hub of power in our lives, and when their image appears in the shrine, we don't know any better than to let it stay.
The longer it stays, the harder it is to move, and the longer you will suffer with their energy in your sphere and their voice in your head. Time to rip their image out of the shrine – with a hammer if needed – and toss it out the window.
I would really like you to work on this visualization. Get in touch with your Higher Self or Crew, and just ask them to show you your inner shrine. Don't overthink it, and see who holds that position of power. If it isn't you, move the person's image and put your own image there.
Then take a look at who else is on your shrine. For me, I'm now in that position of power, but to be honest I did not remove Corey from the little alcove – he's now standing behind me as my right hand. But we're the only ones there. On the table are my parents and a couple people I look up to (one is a fictional character, btw, which I find funny as hell.)
There were also a couple people who were NOT positive influences in my life, and I was feeding them energy by allowing them to have space on my shrine. So I removed them.
I want you to do the same. Put yourself in that position of power, even if you make someone else a close second for now. And get rid of anyone who doesn't want only the Highest and Best for you. Remove their images completely, in whatever way feels best for you.
Try this visual, and see how you feel. Whenever it seems like your control over your life or thoughts is slipping, check in and make sure everything is still as it should be in your shrine. This isn't going to be a cure-all, and it might not happen overnight (because let's face it, we are conditioned to let others be 'the power' in our minds) but it's a great step toward fully claiming your power.

User Experience (UX) matters now more than ever, as today's empowered customers expect distinctive, intuitive and compelling experience that keep pace with their needs and wants, regardless of the device they use, either it be PC or Mobile or even interacting through motion on the Kinect. To accomplish these, UX needs tremendous forethought, insight, and dedicated execution to be successful. iLink's UX team of experts in customer insight, user experience design and user-centered development, understands the importance and impact of UX, and delivers world-class user experience and usability solutions on web, desktop, mobile and slate. We spend ample time in researching and analyzing user needs and wants, and design applications that are easy, interesting, highly intuitive and satisfying to the end users. Our UX process covers the entire user-centered design lifecycle.
Some of the latest technologies used by iLink to bring out the best user experience to the end users include
HTML5 provides developers with an exciting opportunity to bring rich, animated experiences to users right through the browser, without any downloads or third party players. As part of the advancement of browsers like Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome, new developments in animation capabilities allow developers to create experiences like never before. Moreover, with HTML5 you can build unified experiences for any mobile devices and port them seamlessly because the experience is through the browser and not dependent on the device itself. iLink's UX team are full trained in HTML5 and offer clients an amazing opportunity to save time and money in development.
Modern UI is the name of the new design language originally created for Windows Phone and then extended to Zune, Xbox and now included in Windows 10. The Modern UI design language was designed specifically to consolidate groups of common tasks to speed up usage. This is accomplished by excluding superfluous graphics and instead relying on the actual content to also function as the main UI. The resulting interfaces favor larger hubs over smaller buttons and often feature laterally scrolling canvases. Page titles are usually large and consequently also take advantage of lateral scrolling. iLink's UX team has undergone comprehensive training on Modern UI and already delivered several industry specific applications using Modern UI.
XAML (Extensible Application Markup Language) a declarative language and a part of the Microsoft WPF facilitate exchange of sources among different tools and roles in the development process without information loss. The major objective of XAML is to reduce the level of complexity and make ease when tools process XAML. XAML can set objects and its properties with the help of a language structure that exhibits hierarchical relationships between multiple objects. iLink has been using Microsoft XAML extensively for developing Rich internet applications, custom Web applications, Desktop applications and applications for Windows Phone also; iLink can create visible user interface (UI) features in the declarative. Our XAML developers have several years of experience and expertise in developing custom applications and user experience.
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) provides developers with a unified programming model for building rich Windows smart client user experiences that incorporate UI, media, and documents. iLink's developers have several years of experience in creating interactive Rich Internet Applications using WPF platform since the pre-beta stage. iLink is also a member of customary Advisory Board for WPF at Microsoft.
jQuery is a JavaScript-based framework which has allowed developers to deliver animation and user-centric experiences with little footprint on the programming aspect of a website. Traditionally, behavior was generated based on programming, but jQuery allows UX developers the opportunity to build exciting experiences right into the design, without having to change the programming of the application. This saves your company valuable time and money and allows your application to truly extend to meet consumers needs. iLink UX developers have extensive experience in developing user experience using jQuery.
Our User Experience offerings include:
- UX Research and Analysis
- Design
- User experience strategy
- Interactive Solutions:
- Intranet, Extranet and Portals
- LOB applications
- Information Architecture
- Mobile and Slate
- Embedded applications

I need new carpet. So I called around for estimates, and two guys made appointments to come and take measurements.
The first guy arrives in a weatherbeaten pickup truck. He carries a sturdy, good-quality tape measure and a dog-eared notebook. He looks to be about 50-ish, with a friendly smile and tan lines in the wrinkles around his eyes. He takes about 15-20 minutes, spooling and unspooling his tape measure and scribbling notes. Unlike mine, his tape measure never buckles or sticks. I'm envious. He says hi to my kids on the way out.
Second guy comes couple days later. He's late 20s, early 30s, all business, driving a sedan. Instead of a notebook, he's carrying a tablet computer with a touchscreen and a special touch-sensitive pen. And instead of a tape measure, he whips out what looks like a chunky TV remote and aims it at my dining room wall. A red laser dot appears on the wall (I think the thing beeped) and he moved on to the next wall.
Master of the obvious that I am, I ask him if that's a digital tape measure. Yep, he says. The readings automatically flow into the tablet. Ten minutes later, he shakes my hand and exits, leaving me marveling about our increasingly digitized society.
The first place I'd noticed that kind of tablet in use was at my doctor's office a couple years ago. Now my carpet installer's getting in on the act. One more sign of how rapidly digital technology is permeating every aspect of our lives. Everybody says it's progress, and I don't doubt it is. But sometimes it seems technology's moving faster than our ability to process all the social, cultural and ethical implications (See: Google's botched rollout of Google Buzz).
I love all the shiny new toys as much as the next gadget freak. But I sure hope we can all still keep an eye on the macros -- the big-picture ways they're changing the way we work, play, communicate, buy and sell.
One other difference I should note between the two carpet installers: the guy with the manual tape measure arrived on time.

Great piece. The real question - which bid was lower? Does the old guy's low overhead keep prices low, or does the young guy's increased efficiency allow him to do more volume and make more money even while possibly taking a lower margin. In other words: is there positive ROI on the digital tape measure & tablet.
Hope you're well.

Sonic measuring devices and tablets have been around for over a decade, the ability to link them as well.
I still have and use the ones I purchased in 2003.
My 76 year old mother borrowed the measure last week to calculate paint requirements.

- 19:49 Attempting to find a book suitable for 9th grade book report AND interesting to @LithiumFogwatch from my shelves: harder than you'd think. #
- 20:16 @head_shrinker Too slow for her sensibilities. Finally settled on "Tipping the Velvet." #
- 20:40 @head_shrinker Even the Earthsea books are fairly contemplative. #
- Tipping the Velvet counts as suitable for 9th grade book report? Innnnnnteresting.
- Apparently the child is less embarrassed writing about lesbians than gay boys. And it's no more explicit than the Ken Follett spy novels I was reading at the same age.
- I would have to agree with Shadowflyer, except that all I've read of the book was it's Amazon blurb (and I've heard of it before). And that I did The Stand for an 8th grade book report....
I may have to add Tipping The Velvet to my list to read, though.
- It is a truly marvelous book. I think you'd enjoy it.

Even with multiple ways of generating traffic available to online marketers, one of the most popular ones to get visitors to your website is still SEO. This is principally because the SEO implementation is relatively simple and inexpensive. However, the days of stuffing keywords and achieving top ranks for them are long gone as are the chances of posting content in the hope that they will get good ranks. Now, you need to be extremely critical and identify keywords that have the ability to pull in traffic as well as achieve good ranking results.
The Importance of Keyword Research
Because most people are impatient when they are surfing, they rarely devote time to scan results beyond the first page of the search engine results page. This makes it important for websites to be included in the first page to attract visitors and that is only possible if you are better than your competition for the keyword or phrase. It is in this context that keyword research becomes important. With it, you can identify a phrase or a long tail keyword that you can aspire to get a good rank for since these tend to be low volume searches, and hence easier to get a superior rank.
Finding Keywords
The two issues involved in identifying keywords are finding them and ascertaining that they are of use. Finding keywords goes beyond listing the one that you can rattle off from the top of your mind because there is usually quite a large number that is obscure that you do not know about or cannot recall. This is exactly the reason why keyword research tools come into play. With the use of keyword research tools not only can you discover new and valuable keywords but also whether they are actually useful given the search volume. If there is nobody querying with it or if a large number of competitors are using it, there is no point in trying to use them to achieve a good ranking.
Useful Keyword Research Tools
Google's Keyword Planner: One of the most popular keyword search tools, it comes from Google and is also free. Built for paid advertising, it does not give detailed keyword overviews but is still a great tool for identifying new keywords.
Google Instant's Autocomplete Suggestions: You can very easily type in a keyword partially in the Google search box and observe what the autocomplete suggests. The validity of the results is established since the autocomplete takes into account actual searches conducted by users. The main issue is that you have to operate it manually.
Übersuggest: Works similarly to Google's Autocomplete Suggestions but it makes life very easy by generating all the suggestions that are pertinent to a particular keyword. Though the tool comes without any metrics, its utility is in its ability to produce a very useful list of seed keywords. You can go one step further with Yoast Suggests that works very much like Übersuggest but has the ability to provide an output in the handy CSV format.
Answer the Public: Based on Google's Autocomplete Suggestions, this tool offers a more visual way of identifying keywords. The keywords are converted into questions that can be very simply made into article titles that are of relevance to visitors. Because it lacks metrics, you would still need another keyword research tool, however, by itself, it is simply great for finding keywords.
SEMRush: As far as keyword metrics are concerned, SEMRush is one of the most popular keyword research tools. With an input of a single keyword, it provides a whole list of keyword-matched phrases and related keywords. You can also use it to study the advertisement data metrics, and conduct competitor analysis. The tool also has features that allow you to examine your site as well as that of your competitors for the keywords being used, the traffic being generated as well as the backlinks, and other such useful stuff.
In contemporary online marketing, there is nothing as much as important as keyword research simply because having the right knowledge empowers you to generate more interest and traffic to your website. Conducting keyword research also prevents you from wasting time and resources groping in the dark and hoping for the best.

Councilman Bobby Henon represents the 6th Councilmanic District in Northeast Philadelphia, which includes the proud neighborhoods of Tacony, Mayfair, Holmesburg, Lexington Park, Holme Circle, Ashton, Bridesburg, Wissinoming, Port Richmond, East Torresdale, Castor Gardens, Oxford Circle, Rhawnhurst, Bells Corner, and Frankford.
Bobby is a lifelong resident of Northeast Philadelphia and has spent the majority of his adult life in the East Torresdale neighborhood of the 6th Councilmanic District, where he resides with his wife, Jill, and their two young sons, Matt and Zack.
Bobby's personal integrity and desire to help others was forged early on during his four years of education at Northeast Catholic High School for Boys. It was shortly after graduation that he enrolled in and completed the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 98 college-accredited Apprenticeship Program. Bobby worked in the electrical field for a time and quickly began his ascent up the union ladder, serving as a steward, sub-foreman and foreman before becoming a Business Representative for Local 98's Sound and Communications Division. His outgoing personality and political acumen caught the attention of Local 98 Business Manager John J. Dougherty, who soon named him as the local's new Political Director, a position in which he helped draft and lobby for legislation at every level of government to better the future of Local 98's membership. Bobby also managed election day operations for endorsed candidates, educated and supervised campaign volunteers, and coordinated major campaign events. As an extension of his role as Local 98's Political Director, Henon served as Chairman of the local's Political Action Committee, as board member of the Electrical Mechanical Association, and as a delegate to the IBEW International Convention. Bobby's depth of experience as Local 98's Political Director paved the way for his November 2011 election to City Council.
As his outstanding professional reputation grew in political circles, Bobby became a highly valued political adviser to many notable candidates and elected officials alike, serving in numerous high-ranking capacities, including Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell's Inaugural Committee; the 2003 Transition Team for Philadelphia Mayor John Street; state delegate for the Philadelphia Council AFL-CIO; a Vice Chairmanship of the National Young Democrats Labor Caucus; membership in the 2004 Pennsylvania College of Electors; as Labor Organizer for the Philadelphia Building Trades in the five county Greater Philadelphia region for the Seamus McCaffery for Pennsylvania State Supreme Court; and as regional labor organizer for several presidential campaigns; among other positions.
Although Bobby's successful career and reputation as a smart, ethical and effective political adviser has made him known and respected in the halls of power in Philadelphia, Harrisburg and Washington, D.C., his heart remains in Northeast Philadelphia and his long history of civic involvement in his community attests to his loyalty to his hometown roots.
Bobby was involved in numerous pro bono neighborhood improvement projects in Northeast Philadelphia, including lighting the girls' softball field at Archbishop Ryan, the mural of slain Police Officer Gary Skerski, the Viet Nam War Memorial and numerous other lighting projects at Father Judge High School, and lighting and electrical work at many area boys and girls clubs, including Parkwood, Bustleton, Torresdale (where Bobby still serves as assistant coach for boys' sports), Frankford, Somerton, Rhawhurst and others. He also was involved in a major computer lab project at North Catholic High School, an Internet and electrical wiring project at St. Catherine's School, and the rebuilding of the American Veterans (AMVETS) Post 146. Citywide, Bobby is deeply involved with Local 98's annual "Toys and Turkeys" fundraiser for needy families, the annual "Walk for Juvenile Diabetes," Young Friends of the Variety Club, the Susan G. Komen "Walk for the Cure" to raise funds for breast cancer research, and numerous neighborhood clean-up projects. Most recently, Bobby agreed to serve on the advisory committee of the annual "Gary Papa Run 4 Your Life" fundraiser to cure prostate cancer, an insidious disease which Bobby himself recently battled and beat.
Bobby's charitable and civic contributions have earned him many awards and board appointments over the years. He has served on the boards of Self Help Movement, Inc., a Northeast Philadelphia drug rehab with a primary focus on substance abuse treatment and drug rehabilitation, the Franklin Towne Charter High School, Young Variety, and Northeast Victim Services, a non-profit community organization and the principal crime victim advocate for Northeast Philadelphia, which works to empower the victims of crime through advocacy and support, and to assist the community in its efforts to reduce the effects of crime through outreach and education.
Bobby's history of civic involvement earned him the "Hero of Peace Award" presented by Veterans Against Drugs and the 2007 "Spirit of Life Award" presented by Joe Hand Boxing. In 2004, the Philadelphia Business Journal also named him one of its "40 Under 40 to Watch."
Councilman Henon is the Chair of the Committee on Public Property and Public Works and Vice-Chair of the Public Safety Committee and the Committee on the Disabled and Special Needs. He also currently sits on the Committee on Rules, the Appropriations Committee, the Committee on Law and Government, the Committee on Licenses and Inspections, the Labor and Civil Service Committee, the Committee on Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs, and the Transportation and Public Utilities Committee.

Today I am going to share with you my other secret for removing my liquid foundation: The Shiseido Benefiance Creamy Cleansing Emulsion! This creamy product works great because it is very soft on your face and only requires one tissue. To use, I dot the cream all over my face, work it around, then tissue it off. Like a miracle, the tissue sweeps up all the foundation, leaving you with a clean face! I am so glad I discovered this product, as it is a total time-saver and takes off heavy makeup easily. I have no idea how I lived so long without it.
The Shiseido Benefiance Creamy Cleansing Emulsion can be found at Shiseido stores/department stores for around $45, or at Amazon for a lower price.
For those of you looking for a thorough skincare routine, here is what I do when I want to take off a full face of makeup- lashes and all:
First, I gently remove my false eyelashes. Then, using a cotton ball, I dip it into the Victoria's Secret Pro Clean FX Instant Makeup Remover and glide the cotton ball over my lids, and under them. Once all my eye makeup is removed, I apply the Shiseido Benefiance Creamy Cleansing Emulsion all over my face. After tissuing it off, I wash my face, then use the VS Pro Clean FX remover with a cotton ball again- this time, over my entire face. I do this to ensure that all makeup is removed, especially around the edges of my nose or brow bone. After that, I wash my face for a second time, then apply my moisturizers and creams. And then you're all set!
Sure, it may be a lot of work to wash your face twice, but there's really no better feeling than going to bed with a squeaky clean face!

Have you ever been unemployed? Have you ever wished for just one break, one chance to work to provide for your family? It's not that you don't want to work but that you cannot find a job, any job.
This is a picture of a woman in South Asia and a water buffalo. If you've ever been introduced to the wonderful and wacky world of Veggie Tales, this picture can only bring one song to mind. But the reality is that everyone does not have a water buffalo, including those who really need one.
What do water buffalo and unemployment have to do with each other? Simple. In South Asia, there are thousands upon thousands of desperate men and women who want to provide for their families but cannot. The jobs simply aren't there. The means to provide do not exist. The ones who do manage to get jobs often find themselves taken advantage of. They work all day, often in dangerous or unhealthy conditions, but are not paid enough to adequately provide for themselves and their children.
A water buffalo is a tool families in South Asia can use to earn the income they need. It's not extra income; it's the income necessary to survive. There are all kinds of tools that can help a family like the family of the woman in the picture above. A few chickens, a sewing machine, a pull cart, even a small produce scale (which only costs $10) can make a lifetime of difference in the lives of those desperate to provide for their families.
May I ask you to do me a favor? This Christmas, when you are looking for a special gift for a special someone, or trying to decide what to get for that person who has everything, would you consider giving a gift in their honor to someone who has nothing? If you run an office that receives an abundance of chocolate and treats each year from patrons, consider asking them to instead send a gift that will equip others to work and provide food, medicine, and education for their families. It's easy. It's fast. And it produces fruit that will last forever.
Take a look and see what you can do to help.

Chapter XI.
What I Heard in the Apple Barrel.
"No, not I," said Silver. "Flint was cap'n; I was quartermaster, along of my timber leg. The same broadside I lost my leg, old Pew lost his deadlights. It was a master surgeon, him that ampytated me—out of college and all—Latin by the bucket, and what not; but he was hanged like a dog, and sun-dried like the rest, at Corso Castle. That was Roberts' men, that was, and comed of changing names to their ships—Royal Fortune and so on. Now, what a ship was christened, so let her stay, I says. So it was with the Cassandra, as brought us all safe home from Malabar, after England took the Viceroy of the Indies; so it was with the old Walrus, Flint's old ship, as I've seen a-muck with the red blood and fit to sink with gold."
"Ah!" cried another voice, that of the youngest hand on board, and evidently full of admiration, "he was the flower of the flock, was Flint!"
"Davis was a man, too, by all accounts," said Silver. "I never sailed along of him; first with England, then with Flint, that's my story; and now here on my own account, in a manner of speaking. I laid

"I didn't join the Navy to fight for Al Qaeda in a Syrian civil war!" reads the placard covering the face of a US sailor decked out in full military regalia.
As leaders of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee reached an agreement yesterday on a draft authorization for the use of military force in Syria, numerous photos are making the rounds on social media depicting soldiers protesting an impending invasion of Syria.
The photos are evidence of the broad popular opposition to a strike on Syria. The American public is against a strike by 48 to 29 percent, according to Pew's latest poll. At yesterday's Senate hearing, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul reported that nobody he saw in 40 cities during his August break was for attacking Syria.
I haven't had one person come up to me and say they're for this war, not one person. We get calls by the thousands. Nobody's calling in favor of this war. I didn't meet one when I was home all month. I went to 40 cities. I didn't have one person come up and say — do they all agree it's a horrendous thing? Yes, we all agree that chemical attacks are a horrendous thing. But people are not excited about getting involved, and they also don't think it's going to work.
And then there are troops on social media. From Australia's Business Insider: Some US Troops Appear To Be Posting Photos In Protest Of Syrian Intervention
Photos of service members have apparently popped up on Reddit, seemingly in protest of Syrian intervention. (Since they are not identified, it's impossible to verify they are indeed serving in the military.)
The basic argument is that the line between moderate rebel factions and al Qaeda-affiliated ones are somewhat murky in the two-year-old civil war, so the U.S. should stay away from intervening on the rebel side (even in response to a large-scale chemical weapons attack).
It's also worth noting that, while some military members may agree with the message of the photos, many don't agree with using the uniform to bolster the argument.

Affecting interests and section 88B instruments
Affecting interests include:
- Easements
- Profits à prendre
- Restrictions on the use of land
- Positive covenants.
Section 88B Conveyancing Act 1919 provides for the lodgment of an instrument with a deposited plan which enables the creation and release of easements and profits à prendre or the creation of restrictions and positive covenants upon the registration of the plan.
Section 38(1) of the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015 provides that a section 88B instrument may be lodged with a strata plan, strata plan of subdivision or strata plan of consolidation.
A section 88B instrument with a strata plan, a strata plan of subdivision or strata plan of consolidation may create affecting interests burdening or benefiting:
- lots and common property within the scheme
- land outside the scheme when the land is held under the provisions of the Real Property Act 1900, provided the site definition complies with the requirements for a compiled plan .
Defining the site of affecting interests
The sites of any affecting interests to be created must be defined by rectangular offsets from the building or other structural feature in the same manner as lot boundaries.
- Affecting interests which affect lots must be depicted on the floor plan.
- Affecting interests which affect common property are generally depicted on the location plan. However if the easement affects land within a building it may be more practical to depict the site on a floor plan.
- Affecting interests which affect land outside the strata scheme should be depicted on the location plan.
If the site of the affecting interests is difficult or impractical to define by offsets an exemption should be sought from the Plan and Title Advisor to show bearings and distances.
A section 88B instrument with a strata plan, strata plan of subdivision or strata plan of consolidation may also release easements and profits à prendre.

Anti-development Success Story
Although not much has changed physically in San Geronimo, its residents have had plenty of societal impact.
THIS AERIAL PHOTO of San Geronimo Valley was taken in 1965. That's Sir Francis Drake Boulevard running diagonally across the photo's upper right-hand corner; the mass of grass in the center is the barely completed back nine of San Geronimo Golf Course; and that forest at the top is what's now called Roy's Redwoods Preserve. A picture taken in the same spot today would look much the same. Yet considerable moving and shaking has happened in San Geronimo Valley over the past half-century. The story starts in 1854, when Adolph and Annie Mailliard acquired the 8,700-acre Rancho San Geronimo, which is now basically the community of Woodacre. Adolph was a shirttail relative of Napoleon Bonaparte, Annie was from a New England literary family, and her sister wrote "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Their grandson, John Ward Mailliard III, served heroically in World War II and was a close adviser to California Governor (and later Chief Justice of the Supreme Court) Earl Warren. John's wife, Charlotte, has served for years as chief of protocol for both the State of California and the City of San Francisco (she is now 83 and married to former U.S. Secretary of State George Schultz). Another grandson of Adolph and Annie was William S. "Bill" Mailliard, who also served meritoriously in World War II, later became a U.S. Congressman serving from 1953 to 1974, and remained active in civic affairs until his death in 1992, when he was living in Belvedere. As for the San Geronimo Golf Course, it's still there; it is the only element ever built of a master plan, approved by county supervisors in 1961, that proposed 5,000 new homes, a freeway, a civic center, a heliport (on land that Spirit Rock Meditation Center now occupies) and a shopping center surrounded by apartments. That master plan was replaced by a resident-generated San Geronimo Community Plan, adopted in 1978, which foretold much of Marin's anti-development attitude.

I can re-size sterling silver rings! Doing a happy dance now! lol
These are my first three attempts:
The turquoise ring was purchased about 10 years ago at a flea market. It was a size 6 when I got it (my pinkie is a size 8) so I hammered the band out until I could wear it on my pinkie. I never wore it much because all that hammering made for one very thin ring band and plus the turquoise ring face, in my opinion, was too large for my pinkie.
The agate ring I found on eBay not long ago and it was a size 8. Again, it fit my pinkie but had a ring face too large for that finger.
The labordorite ring is my eldest sister's (Please don't tell her I was wearing it without asking. She gets a little cranky about things like that. lol) and was a size 6. Her hands are even larger than mine. She wears a size 10 pinkie.
Last night I worked on these rings. The first one I tackled was the turquoise. I snipped off the useless ring band and took the cabochon out of it's setting before soldering on a whole new band. In taking the cab out I found a surprise or two. 1) The cab was a dublet and 2) the original maker of the ring didn't bother to solder the bezel wire ends together. The ring is now a comfortable size 10.
Next I tackled the agate. This time I did not remove the cab from it's setting. I used Therm-a-Guard to protect the ring face. This was much harder to do with my mini torch, but I eventually got the band to heat up enough to take the solder. I sized it to a 11.5 that way I could, on a good day, wear it on my pointer finger and on normal days where my hands swell, I could wear it on my middle finger.
The labordorite ring I took the setting out before sizing it. I had a time matching the spliced piece to the original band because it was a full mm thicker and a smidgen wider. I just soldered it on then used the dremal tool to grind away the excess. It was sized to a 12 to fit her ring finger.
What would it have cost for me to get one of these rings re-sized locally? $30.00 - one week wait ($40.00 if it needed sized up more than just 2 sizes). Or I could send it to my sister in Illinois and (including shipping) pay $20.00 - one month wait (any size). What did it cost me to do it myself? $1.25 per ring and a couple of hours time. :)
Happy dance time indeed! lol
