What is a train to you if you can't see it? Time in Boulder City with a super extraordinary group of kiddos, and my perception of how to absorb information has changed the way I'll travel Nevada forever. Yep, it's that good.
Points of Interest
Ok, so let me get down to brass tacks here. I'm a Battle Born enthusiast through and through, but I had just been on a fantastically crazy warpath of a Nevada road trip for the past eight days. After covering seven state parks, one national park, six hotels, one wildlife preserve, and a few museums, I was a blubbering mess. Like, rocking in the corner humming to myself kind of a mess.
660 miles later, I was up to my eyebrows in State of Nevada factoids. Scheduled to take a tour of of a few final places before jetting home, I was trying to wrap my brain around possibly absorbing anything else. While I wholeheartedly wanted to learn as much as I could about some new and exciting places, all I could hope for was a slow, soft pitch of a tour with easy to understand guide!
After a godly night's rest at The Downtown Grand, I swung on over to the Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort, which was less than five minutes up the street. So far so good. I knew this state park was developed around Las Vegas' first official establishment, but walking in, it was a bit strange. Right smack dab in the center of a gigantic intersection was this historic site with a large replicated fort. Kind of like a death metal concert in the middle of a prairie plain or revving a Lambo next to a sleeping baby. It was a blatant mix of old and new, and that alone had me pretty intrigued.
Once I was inside the park, most of the oddities stopped. I say 'most,' because the ranger promptly informed me that the original pioneer homestead was kitty corner to the park, where a bustling Shell Station was currently operating. Per usual, the history cast its spell over me and I couldn't help but wonder what it must've been like to settle in this vast, arid land, with a nearby spring as the only commodity to take advantage of. A portion of one original building was miraculously still standing [flipping amazing that it mostly resisted the elements since the mid 1800s] as were some of the original fruit trees from early settlement days. It was surprisingly relaxing to wander these grounds, getting a better understanding how this glamorous metropolis originally got its start.
En route to the airport, I hit up one final stop before my epic journey was over: a mishmash of the Nevada State Museum and the Springs Preserve. Brilliantly located on an adjoining property, these elegant establishments have it figured out: they've managed to capture every single demographic with refined ease. (And to tell you the truth, I was a little happy to see exhibits intended for children..it was a bright colors and shapes kind of a day for me.)
Having learned that Las Vegas' first settlement was attributed to the natural spring running through the valley, this perfectly parlayed into an amazing experience at the Springs Preserve. Effortlessly devoted to understanding Las Vegas' dynamic history and the importance of water conservation in the area, the immaculately executed Preserve grounds includes museums, galleries, jaw-dropping botanical gardens, and my favorite: the cotton tail rabbit habitat. Yes, this exhibit is designed for children, and no, my punchiness didn't lead me to this decision. Tell me one person who doesn't want to stick their head in a plastic pod INSIDE a fuzzy little bunny's home? Second best was the Universal Studios-esque room that demonstrated the seriousness of a flash flood in the Mojave Desert. Let's get real here: a cool relaxing place, informative tidbits and a mock-flash flood = amazing fun at any age.
I addressed my rumbling belly with an exquisite lunch at the Springs Cafe…mmmmm my mouth is watering now, dreaming about the homemade potato chips that came with my stellar chicken sandwich. Feeling inexplicably restored, I hightailed it to the Nevada State Museum-Las Vegas for one final dose of history and culture. And boy did I get just that.
This was the ultimate way to wrap up this trip, and I swear, I didn't even plan like this. Wandering through these world-class, interactive exhibits pretty much blew my mind, considering I was inside the replicated mine shaft, and had just been at the historic Pioche Mining Aerial Tramway days before. Or making my way through the Lehman Caves exhibit when I had been deep down inside the real thing just a week ago. The authenticity of these places truly came to life through each exhibit...it was mind boggling.
Although I was full to the brim with information, experiencing the Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort, Springs Preserve and Nevada State Museum sort of drove each place home and sealed the history in my brain in an off-beat sort of a way. It was blowing my mind to see a lot of what I had just covered [in a land bigger than the country of England mind you] was wrapped up in one building. The whole experience had been wrapped up nicely with a big shiny red bow. With that, I share with you an important hidden lesson: even when taking a nap sounds best after a frantically satisfying journey in our neck of the woods, sum up your trip with a visit to one of these astonishing establishments! #NVMuseums
With such a mind-blowing number of things to do in one state, use these tools and resources to help you prepare for an absolutely killer Nevada experience.GET STARTED
What is a train to you if you can't see it? Time in Boulder City with a super extraordinary group of kiddos, and my perception of how to absorb information has changed the way I'll travel Nevada forever. Yep, it's that good.
Is there a better way of being connected to a place than by way of history? Hard no. Proudly built by the OG Silver Kings themselves, this place began as a showstopping historic school. Today, it's an immaculately preserved window into our past, and one of the best museums in town.&nb...
Consider yourself a straight up loco-lover? We've got your tracks covered 'round these parts with an esteemed lineup of State Railroad Museums, which just so happen to include the only lasting piece of Transcontinental Railroad history in existence. learn more
Ever been to a place and been told a story so crazy that there's absolutely, posiTIVELY no way you'll ever forget about, even if you try? That place is the East Ely Depot, friends, and the man? Acquafondata.

Just before christmas I managed to get my hands on this very sought after body glitter from The Body Shop. BUT until last weekend I totally forgot about it (silly me!). I used it this past Saturday on a night out with my friends and I must say it will be a staple product for me on nights out in the future. The limited edition item is a shimmery powder with flecks of glitter which can be used all over the body including your hair! I used it on my legs and chest area to give me a little sparkle. I avoided using it on my face because I didn't want to look like a disco ball! But I'm sure with careful application it would make you stand out from the crowd.
So whats good about it?
It comes in two colours; silver/pink and gold. I opted for the silver/pink as I have pale skin so it would suit my skin tone better. It gives your skin the perfect shimmer and it looks really pretty on your dressing table too!
And the bad...
The atomiser was quite expensive, about £15 if I remember rightly and being limited addition make sit hard to get your hands on.

Using ZENworks Personality Migration as a Backup Tool
Novell Cool Solutions: Trench
By Frans Schilling
Digg This -
Slashdot This
Posted: 17 Mar 2005
ZENworks Personality Migration is a tool that can be used for other things besides migrating from one PC to another. We use it to backup email on the users' PCs, as well as critical data. This saves us from having to install backup software on every user's PC and on tapes. Here's what you do.
After installing ZENworks Personality Migration, create a template to save all data that you deem essential (My Documents, email, etc.), and then create an Application Object that runs on a scheduled basis to backup the data to a server volume of your choice. Create another one that will put the data back when necessary. You will also have to give the user RWCEMF rights in the DATA directory under DDNA.
Here is an example of the program and parameters line that you would use in your application object for collecting the data:
Program: \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\DesktopDNA.exe parameters: /D \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\data\%CN%\FILENAME /T \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\templates\TEMPLATE.dtf /X /Q
Replace "\\SERVER\VOLUME" with your server and volume name. Replace "FILENAME" with whatever you want to name the DNA file. Replace "TEMPLATE.DTF" with whatever you name your template.
The /Q option will make the application run in the background so that the user doesn't even see it happening.
Here is an example of the program and parameters line that you would use in your application object for putting the data back:
Program: \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\DesktopDNA.exe Parameters: /A \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\data\%CN%\FILENAME.DNA /T \\SERVER\VOLUME\ddna\templates\TEMPLATE_NAME.dtf /X /M

RightNow Technologies has trumpeted a "knowledge syndication" widget as the highlight of its new RightNow November 07 enterprise CRM service.
The widget will allow online retailers to offer their customers access to product catalogues and product details with a single click.
The widget will, in essence, use RSS to feed answers from the manufacturer's knowledge base about a product, according to Sandy Erickson, director of the RightNow Service product line.
The RightNow CRM service allows companies to create a repository for all corporate information about products and services. The technology also monitors the most frequently asked questions and displays topics as links on the widget to the repository.
It can also index content not found in the repository and bring it forward to the customer if appropriate.
The latest release also features an updated look and feel that includes a redesign of the UI for search results, making it look more like a standard search results page.
Twelve additional languages have also been added for a total of 33 native languages supported.
"This is more than any other on demand CRM vendor," said Erickson.

By monitoring individuals over time, we'll have evidence of how the population changes in size and in timing of important life events (making new leaves, flowering, making fruits, etc.). Our goal for this workday will be to mark (with a small flag) each of the individuals in the nature area.
Join us this Saturday August 23 from 10am-12pm.
Rainbow Beach Park runs parallel to South Shore Drive from 75th-79th Streets. By foot, walk east from South Shore Dr. on 77th St. By car, you can only access the park at the southern end.
From the north/west, follow Hwy 41 east as it splits from South Shore Drive at 79th St. Turn left into the park at Farragut.
From the south, follow Hwy 41 north and turn right on Farragut, just before the intersection of 79th/South Shore.
Once in the park, go past the stop sign and water filtration plant and turn right at the next opportunity. Go to the southeast end of this lot and park. Meet at the entrance to the Nature Area, the which is located at the southern end of the beach (look for the banner!).

This is so yummy and easy and cheesy, its a sure family pleaser, it was such a hit that I didn't even get to take a picture.
1 lb of grass fed ground beef or venison
1 whole organic yellow onion
2 cloves of garlic crushed
2 tsp of coconut oil
Mix into:
1 tsp organic oregano
1 tsp real sea salt
1 tsp organic parsley
1 tsp organic sweet basil
4 cups organic tomato sauce*
1 cup diced fresh organic tomatoes
1 cup Nancy's Organic Cottage Cheese, the only cottage cheese I can find that isn't loaded with chemicals and is a reasonable price.
1 cup raw mozzarella cheese
6 cups dry mostocolli noodles, COOKED
1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese mixed with 1 cup raw grated cheddar cheese for the top.
Bake at 375 for 25 minutes. YUM!! Depending on the ages of those present at the dinner table, this would most likely feed 8 to 10 people. My 9x13 pan was heaping full!
*I didn't have tomato sauce so I used some Bionaturae Tomato paste in glass jars and water. The next time I make this I am going to use a quart of my mom's homemade spaghetti sauce and add extra veggies like fresh mushrooms, golden zucchini, and some steamed spinach.

Either take a break or double up cyclist to make this happen.
Finish Cutoff Times
7:30 p.m., Sunday, May 27, 2018
The Course
We have spent a lot time driving to lay out the RAG route and establish the transition points. The route is scenic, quiet and very rural. Drivers in the rural areas and most of the route will not be expecting cyclists. All cyclists must yield to all vehicles. Each cyclist needs to familiarize themselves with the overall map, the Map My Run Application and the written instructions. a wrong turn is made, the cyclist must ride your bike back to get back to where the error occurred and then resume the race.
You will be required to send a photo of the relay hand off at every other transition ("check-in" will be noted on the transition chart") to race central. This is your "proof" of the transitions.
Race Wrist Bands
The official race wrist bands must be worn by the cyclist actively cycling. The wrist band will be the hand-off at each Relay Transition and are a condition to proper team check-in at the Finish Line. The wrist band will be issued to each team at packet pickup
We will provide lists of motels, police/sheriff's departments, fire stations and Port-o-lets that are available to use along the route. RAG will not provide any accommodations or aid. Cyclists can stay, eat and resupply anywhere they can arrange—hotel (not many along route), motel (plenty, but some are interesting), tents, farms, churches, etc.
Teams must be completely self-supported by their own means or via their own crew.
Please submit the names and phone numbers for anyone that will be crewing for you. Email this by May 14 to email@example.com. They will be required to sign a waiver.
Bike relay teams may not have pacers at any time. Each team rider must complete each assigned leg of the course under his or her own power. Walk, run, crawl, jump, skip, hop or roll to the finish line, but all must be done under your own power. Participants cannot have any assistance in forward progress on the course. This includes riding in cars or physical support by other cyclists or crew.
Cyclist must have a trail vehicle at all times.
Riders, crew, and staff must not litter, mar, or pollute the landscape or environment. Port-o-lets will be available at select transitions.
All cyclists will ride with traffic and abide all traffic laws.

While riding during the hours of 8pm and 7am, riders are required to wear a safety vest and have a functioning headlight and taillight on their bike. These lights must be a minimum of 30 lumens. All riders (that are not riding) and all crew members must wear a reflective vest, as well as red blinking lights facing front and rear, anytime they are out of a vehicle between the hours of 8pm and 7am. Riders and crew members are encouraged to wear reflective material during the day as well.
If a driver pulls over on the side of the road all tires must be off the road AND must be far enough off the side of the road that the vehicle door will not open into traffic. We encourage you to park in parking lots whenever possible.
Always look and listen both ways before crossing the highways. Cyclists must yield to all vehicles. Remember that drivers will not expect to encounter cyclists or parked vehicles out on the course. Remember we are on public roads.
County Sheriff Departments and Police Departments along the route have been notified about this event. They are aware of the extra traffic and will be available for assistance.
Moisture Management
Georgia is hot and humid in May. Moisture management is crucial for event success. Do not under estimate the effects of moisture. Rain is not uncommon this time of year, as well. Watch out for rubbing, chafing and blisters.
Vehicle Decorations and Team Names
Vehicles need to conspicuously display a "cyclist on the road" sign in or on each vehicle. Runners will also be encouraged to decorate their car for the event. There will be a Best Car Award.
All cyclists are encouraged to decorate their vehicles. We ask that the decorations be tasteful and appropriate for all ages. Teams with offensive names or decorations will be asked to change names and remove decorations.
Rider Rotation
Teams are required to establish a rider rotation and keep the same rotation/order throughout the entire race. Teams cannot substitute new riders once the race starts. Only riders on the registered team may run the race.
To be considered a competitive team, each team must adhere to the following:
- Establish a cyclist rotation
- Maintain the same cyclist rotation at all times
- A cyclist is out of the race if they get injured, sick or tired and cannot complete or start a leg. The cyclist cannot rest, hydrate, recover and/or medicate and return to the rotation further down the road. The team will automatically become a non-competitive team if the cyclist re-enters the race.
- If a cyclist drops out during their leg, there are 3 options:
- The next rider in the rotation may continue the leg and also complete their next leg. For example: If rider #1 cannot complete leg 5, rider #2 will complete leg 5. At the end of the leg rider #2 will then complete leg 6. Riders 2, 3 and 4 would continue in their rotation order until the finish line is reached.
- The next rider in the rotation may continue the leg and would hand off to the next rider at the end of leg 5. For example, if rider #1 cannot complete leg 5, rider #2 will complete leg 5. Rider #2 would hand off to Rider #3 at the end of leg 5 and Rider #3 will complete leg 6. Riders 2, 3 and 4 would continue in their rotation order until the finish line is reached.
- If rider #1 cannot complete leg 5, rider #2 will complete leg 5. The 3 remaining cyclists choose to allow Rider #1 to jump back into rotation at any point, forfeiting their competitive status and becoming a non-competitive team.
Finish Line Celebration
The finish line is on Broadway in Columbus, Georgia. RAG Celebration will be at the finish line on Sunday evening from 3:30pm-7:30pm. Food will be provided for participants and crew. You are welcome and encouraged to invite your family and friends to greet you at the finish line. Food and drinks for donation will be available for friends and family.

The new Leica DG Summilux 12mm f/1.4 ASPH achieves high resolution from the centre to the corners of the image, which can be taken advantage to shoot starry skies or night scenes containing illumination. The multi-coated lens elements also improve image quality to capture true-to-life pictures and video.
Precise Focusing For 4K Video
Incorporating an inner focus drive system and a stepping motor, the new Leica DG Summilux 12mm f/1.4 ASPH is capable of smooth, silent operation. When used in combination with any Lumix G camera and its high-speed, high-precision contrast AF system, both photo and video recording are optimised. It is also compatible with the sensor drive at a maximum of 240fps to take full advantage of cameras with high-speed AF. This stunning AF performance is excellent for recording 4K videos, where precise focusing is essential.
Full, Intuitive Aperture Control
The Leica DG Summilux 12mm f/1.4 ASPH has an aperture ring for direct, intuitive aperture control. Nine blades give the aperture a rounded shape that produces an attractively smooth effect in out-of-focus areas when shooting at larger aperture settings.
Metal Durability
A highly reliable metal mount assures durability for repeated use. The lens mount, the barrel and the hood are all made of metal to provide a sleek, sophisticated design that matches the entire line-up of Lumix G Mirrorless cameras.
Help Is At Hand To find The Perfect Lens
From wide-angle to telephoto, there is a Lumix G lens for all circumstances. To help you find the perfect lens for your needs, the Panasonic website offers an intuitive lens selector tool. Within the gallery, simply select the type of photos that you'd love to take and the website will provide recommendations for equipment to achieve similar, breathtaking results.

Thoughts and musings on the Sathya Sai Baba controversy, where his philosophy, theology and personal behaviour are analyzed and discussed.
I was a hardcore follower of Sathya Sai Baba for just over a decade, and made six trips to see him in India. Now no longer a devotee, I use this blog to record memories, comments and muses on the Sai scenario and also point out inaccuracies in Sai Baba's philosophical and theological presentation. Why did I leave Sai Baba?

The upcoming release of the API [1] will include an experimental feature: order by reification. Background: currently there is no standard way of defining ordered binary relationships in RDF. Ordered binary relationships are required for building ordered n-ary relationships. I'm modeling order using reification. Thus, modeling that book B has first author Foo and second author Bar has the following model: B --dc:Creator--> Foo B --dc:Creator--> Bar (B --dc:Creator--> Foo) --rdf:order--> 1 (B --dc:Creator--> Bar) --rdf:order--> 2 1 and 2 are literals, not ordinal properties of RDF (rdf:_n), although is doesn't make a big difference, just that you don't need rdf:_n and the syntax is simpler. rdf:order is not defined in RDF M&S spec, it's an extension. This approach is backward compatible, i.e. applications that do not support order can still determine that both Foo and Bar are authors of B. This is not the case when defining order using rdf:Seq-based approaches. Backward order is also supported, so if you have two parents {A, B} that have children {P, Q, R}, one can express that B is the second parent of the third child R as follows: B --child--> R (B --child--> R) --rdf:order--> 3 (B --child--> R) --rdf:backwardOrder--> 2 I introduced extensions to SiRPAC and SiRS (serializer) included in the API. The syntax for ordered relationships looks like the following (book example above): <rdf:Description about="B"> <dc:Creator rdf:order="1">Foo</dc:Creator> <dc:Creator rdf:order="2">Bar</dc:Creator> </rdf:Description> If the objects are resources (not literals as above), the example can be written either as: <rdf:Description about="B"> <dc:Creator rdf:order="1" rdf:resource="Foo"/> <dc:Creator rdf:order="2" rdf:resource="Bar"/> </rdf:Description> or also in a less verbose fashion using XML-inherent ordering: <rdf:Description about="B"> <dc:Creator> <rdf:Description about="Foo"/> <rdf:Description about="Bar"/> </dc:Creator> </rdf:Description> In the last example, the property element <dc:Creator> contains more than one resource element. If more than one element is found by the parser (invalid in the current official syntax), assertions about reified statements are added to the model. Backward order can be additionally specified as follows: <rdf:Description about="B"> <dc:Creator> <rdf:Description rdf:backwardOrder="3" about="Foo"/> <rdf:Description rdf:backwardOrder="5" about="Bar"/> </dc:Creator> </rdf:Description> that could mean something like B is the third book written by Foo and the fifth one authored by Bar. The API [1] fully supports manipulations with reified statements. Comments and suggestions are welcome. I'll try to take them into consideration for the upcoming release.

family pictures
Here are a few pictures from last weekend. Unfortunately our beautiful, wonderful and amazing Grandma Babe Webster passed on so we had her funeral and much family time to honor her last Saturday. And fortunately we were all dressed up so I was able to get some pretty good pictures.
lunchtime conversation
Annie: Luke, this is a Kitty Cat. (while picking a treat from the Halloween bucket and holding up a Kit Kat)
Luke: No Annie, it is a Musk Rat.
I didn't bother to correct them, I felt that both titles were reasonable and why ruin all the fun for who get to enjoy hearing the logic of two 3 year olds in a great conversation.
Halloween 2011
Here are a few fun Halloween pictures to enjoy. We had a super fun weekend – we went to the YMCA party on Friday, then a DL party on Saturday and then trick or treated in our amazing neighborhood on Monday. What a great time and lots of costume fun! A big thanks to all our great family and neighbors for the awesome treats!

UK IGN > Outreach and Publications > Conferences and Seminars > QGIS Conference 2015
International QGIS User and Developer Conference
This conference has been held
The development and use of GIS in recent years has exploded - it is no longer an 'experts only' pursuit. This makes the application much more exciting and challenging. Multiple users - multiple applications - more challenges. The advent of highly functional, free and open GIS applications such as QGIS has further broadened the audience of those who can make use of GIS in their daily activities.
This QGIS-centric conference aims to bring together developers, users and educators worldwide and foster closer interactions in order to work for ideas for improving the software and its use. It is in forums like this where ideas can be exchanged and developed.
For an application such as QGIS to realise its full potential, it is important that it is developed in collaboration between users and creators of the software. Usually QGIS developers and users meet at the mailing lists, stack exchange and other virtual meeting places.
The QGIS community hold meetings twice a year: last year meetings were held in Vienna, Austria and Essen, Germany. Up until now these meetings have been developer community focussed. This first meeting to be held in 2015 is in Nødebo - Denmark and for the first time ever it will be combined with a user conference!
QGIS is used all over the world - and in a great variety of professions. At QGIS.org you can read the many user stories and get inspiration for how it can be used in your own work
Important dates
|Call for presentations and workshops closing
|10 March 2015
|User conference
|18, 19 May 2015
|Developer conference
|20, 21, 22 May 2015
Call for registration - Register now to secure your place at the conference!
If you would like to register to attend the conference (presenters need to do this too), please use the link to the right of this page. Please note that space in the conference is limited and acceptance will be on a first-com, first-served basis. All fees and income generated from the project will go directly towards:
- Covering costs of meals and venue
- Supporting the establishment of a QGIS Users group in Denmark
- The QGIS project
QGIS Diversity statement
The QGIS Project welcomes and encourages participation by everyone.
No matter how you identify yourself or how others perceive you: we welcome you. We welcome contributions from everyone as long as they interact constructively with our community.
While much of the work for our project is technical in nature, we value and encourage contributions from those with expertise in other areas, and welcome them into our community.

In fact, Fès used to be the capital city of Morocco, until this changed to Rabat in 1925. Anyone choosing to book a holiday rental in Fès-Boulemane can easily visit Fès, which is becoming ever more popular amongst tourists. This is an old city with a medina in its centre known as Fès el-Bali which is one of the main attractions for visitors who book rental properties here. This is a location where you can really fully experience the charm of Morrrocan lifestyle and culture; the narrow, winding streets and the aromatic-smelling boutiques, the mosques and the occasional donkey and mule passing by. In the local area you can find interesting museums and stunning architecture, showing off the North-African intricate style of decoration. One of the most emblematic and recognisable sites here are the Chanouwara tanneries, where you can watch workers dying leather in large tanning pits and learn about this fascinating process.
If you decide to rent private Fès-Boulemane holiday apartments, an exotic trip into the Sahara desert is also easy to arrange. Travel via camel or 4x4 vehicles into the undulating sands and experience a unique environment. For a little extra, extended camping trips in the desert can be organised, which really is something different which you will undoubtedly remember for a very long time! If you'd rather go to a town than into the wild desert, Sefrou is also an interesting location, with a nice medina and Jewish quarter, or Mellah, which you can look around. This is an especially busy town during the summer at the beginning of June, when there is a week long Cherry Festival held here, with parades, music and of course a Cherry Queen!
However, the city of Fès is the beating heart of the region, and most people booking self catering holiday rentals in Fès-Boulemane will find that the apartment meets their every need during their stay. Wander around the historic medina, witness age-old leather tanning techniques (and take home a souvenir) or just soak up the beautiful Moorish architecture of the city's mosques and bazaars. An ancient city with a venerable religious history, Fès is nowadays one of Morocco's most welcoming destinations. If you want to make the most of your holidays here, don't forget to go on a city tour, where local guides will take you to all of the most important must-see places.
Anyone renting Fès-Boulemane holiday apartments should expect to be occupied and enchanted every day during their trip. Whether it's relaxation or an active vacation you crave, this is a wonderful area of Morocco to explore. Don't restrict yourself just to this region of Morocco though, as there are more great regions to explore nearby, like Grand Casablanca where you'll find the large city of Casablanca, Rabat-Sale-Zemmour-Zaer, which houses the capital city, and Tangier-Tetouan. This port-city really does offer a stunning view of the whitewashed houses against a backdrop of the clear, blue sea of the Strait of Gibraltar. This location also has a rich cultural history and is becoming ever more modern, so now is the time to visit! It is located in the northernmost province of Morocco, just the other side of the water from mainland Spain where you'll find Tarifa, and the south of Portugal, where you can try your hand at surfing in the Algarve.
This is where you can find your reminder list,
recently viewed accommodations and lots more!

Moth is a VMware image with a set of vulnerable Web Applications and scripts, that you may use for:
- Testing Web Application Security Scanners
- Testing Static Code Analysis tools (SCA)
- Giving an introductory course to Web Application Security
The motivation for creating this tool came after reading "anantasec-report.pdf" which is included in the release file which you are free to download. The main objective of this tool is to give the community a ready to use testbed for web application security tools. For almost every web application vulnerability that exists in the wild, there is a test script available in moth.
There are three different ways to access the web applications and vulnerable scripts included in moth:
- Directly
- Through mod_security
- Through PHP-IDS (only if the web application is written in PHP)
Both mod_security and PHP-IDS have their default configurations and they show a log of the offending request when one is found. This is very useful for testing web application scanners, and teaching students how web application firewalls work. The beauty is that a user may access the same vulnerable script using the three methods; which helps a lot in the learning process.
More information about how to use moth will be posted in our blog within the following weeks.

Most wear accessories
When I´m dog walking during early morning I usually think about what I´m going to wear to work both clothes and accessories. I do have about 30 to 40 minutes to figure it out. Well, sometimes it is more than enough, but there are days that even after I wash my teeth, face, shower... you know, morning routine... and walk around the house, I still cannot deside what I´m going to wear and what accessories I´m going to put on.

EMPTIES - Used up products - hair and body - Vymíňané výrobky - vlasy a telo sprcha
Hello Girls!
After few months it is time for emptying my paper bag from Marionnaud and write a small review about hair and body products that I used till the last drop.:-) I decided to divide my post about Empties to different categories - hair and body (shower), make-up and face and body care. I always have ton of used up products and even more samples that I would like to share with you, but that would ginormously long blog post that no one would reads.

DIY White - silver bead necklace
Hello Beauties!
Every girl needs necklace that she can put on and be lady or girl next door. This necklace is that baby for me. I can put it on with jeans and white or black T-shirt or with LBD.
I used white and silver beads (several packages), needle, thread and lobster clasp. On some of the bead rows I did few knots. Each row of beads is long variously. The longest row of beads ends up somewhere between my breasts. Yeah, I like this necklace a lot.:-)
Have a beautiful Sunday!
✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄
Podľa mňa každé dievča potrebuje náhrdelník, ktorý môže nosiť keď je za dámu, ale aj za dievča od vedľa. Takýmto náhrdelníkom je pre mňa tento. Môžem ho nosiť aj k džínsom a bielemu alebo čiernemu tričku, ale aj k malým čiernym.
Použila som biele a strieborné gorálky (niekoľko balíkov), ihlu, niť a zatváratko. Na niektorých šnúrkach s gorálkami som urobila uzlíky. Každá šnúra s gorálkami je inak dlhá a tým náhrdelník vytvára veľmi pekný vodopád. Najdlhšia šnúra mi končí zhruba medzi prsiami. Hm, tento veľmi jednoduchý ale krásny náhrdelník nosím veľmi rada.:-)
Prajem krásnu nedeľu.

April most used lip stick - lip butter
April just did fly by for me. It was so short. I did not even realize and we have mid of May. Summer is behind the door. I was going thru my everyday work bag and I found 5 different lip products in a various stage of use and with different date of purchase. I am a "what you, you use" user of products. If I do not see something for months I usually do not use it or I use it much slower. Three of these lip products I have in my purse and the Catrice Pure shine I have right next to my couch on very nice shiny white table from IKEA. With coinsidence all are quite shiny, but no metal glitter shine.

Travel essentials - Make-up I brought with me to Denmark
During few last years I realized that I bring with me less and less things. It is not just in make-up, but also my skin care has fewer products. For a four days I´m able to bring just one backpack for all I need - clothes, make-up, skin care, some snacks or dry food and water bottle. It is my fave backpack from university from company MILO 35 l. I was able to bring for my recent trip just 9 make-up things. Yay, for no luggage check-in! More time for duty free.;-)

Recent make-up purchase - HAUL - YSL, CATRICE, ASTOR - Nákupy
I recently went to buy a gift for my very good friend. She is into make-up and cosmetic as I and therefore when bought her Dior nail polish I have had to buy something for myself, too. I went to Marionnaud store and they have had a 40 % off sale for second make-up product. That was a sign for me that I have to buy something, preferably something that I would not normally buy. And that was YSL lipstick!;-)

They have stores all over the Denmark and Norway. You can almost anything for handwork and more. You can find loads of interesting project on their web site and YouTube channel - www.grenes.dk. It is an amazing store!:-)

House Of Habit
Built in 1847, Como House & Backyard is an intriguing mixture of Australian Regency and basic Italianate architecture. Vespawoolf , The boat home at all times was a little creepy with all those big spiders in it. Thanks a lot for stopping by and leaving a remark. I had an excellent lender, he took time from his day because he wished the sale and helped me with the agreement. In previous many years a porch overlooking the highway can be quite nice, with neighbors and rare slow-moving vehicles passing by. Nevertheless, fashionable living dictated that a porch mustn't power the occupants of the house to endure the noise of the street. When one of the spooks becomes violent, the Perrons enlist the help of Ed and Lorraine Warren, two paranormal investigators who come to the home and arrange recording tools. Anyone with home rabbits and cats is aware of this since often rabbits will snatch the cat's toys proper from their furry mitts.
Scarista Home is small and chic, the type of place one reads about in Agatha Christie novels but by no means quite believes exists in actuality. It's important to make at the very least 3 times your month-to-month rent every month to be accepted into most house complexes within the twenty-first century. I don't like individuals coming in my house when I'm not there whether or not a home-sitter or repairman. The truth is, Jon even got here to my dad's 60th birthday celebration with me – he had by no means even met my dad and his twin brother, Leonard earlier than this. At this point, an exorcism is needed – or the Perrons should go away the home endlessly. We did not know each other then, so my name is just not related to the house in any means.
After all, no medication had been found, so ten minutes later, I was allowed to go on my means and be part of the social gathering. Usually, we'd arrive on the occasion in the midst of the evening – generally about 4am – and it will be in full swing and we would go dashing in. Hey, Raevyn14, I wrote one other hub about the Ten Biggest Hoaxes in U.S. historical past and, guess what, the Amitmyville house is on the listing! A ND recruiting win occurred this morning when 4 star Cass Tech CB Kalon Gervin dedicated to the Preventing Irish. Three-bedroom houses priced at between £sixty five,000 and £seventy five,000 are plentiful within the Newcastle-upon-Tyne area of Tyne & Put on, particularly in Blyth and Jarrow. I owe 243k and my dad and mom have indicated that they might give me 125k money to purchase the home outright.
In 1938 the Gropiuses loved sweeping views as a result of the house stood alone on prime of the hill unobstructed by timber and woods. It was night when the odor materialized, and I noticed it won't be attainable to get a licensed plumber to my home after common enterprise hours. His mother was out of state along with his dying father, and he advised me that she agreed i could reside at the home (he was watching it for them) and was supposed to be residing out of state even after the daddy handed away.
Gropius Home is close to the Town of Lincoln's conservation trails, and a few guests enjoy taking a walk in the woods. Good lord when folks say that your own home is your calling card they aren't kidding. As talked about there appears to be some potential rising damp within the 2 bedrooms and although a mould spray has been used on the walls and I have painted my walls, it appears like is is coming back and in the main bed room which is my brothers room there is all the time alot of condensation on the windows. When you fall behind (in my case I lost my job) that is little or no approach to get caught up. The house is gone. An organized desk itemizing all 110 Michigan Representatives and their contact info, including office cellphone numbers and e-mail addresses. And renovation plans foundered as he apparently defaulted on a $1.three million loan.

Unexpected tire failure, this is why I carry a partial roll of tape in my bicycle repair kit. It is not there for permanent repairs but it has gotten me to the nearest store where I could replace that tire on many occasions.
On long self-contained tours I make a habit of carrying at least one spare tire and one spare tube. To do otherwise would be travelling unprepared. For shorter trips or commutes you might not want to be carrying a lot of gear. Securing everything every time you lock your bike up somewhere can be a major issue. In some cities anything that can be easily removed from you bike stands a high likelihood of being stolen the minute you're out of sight. I don't leave my repair kit, tire pump or cyclo-computer on the bike. I take them with me. That little roll of tape has earned a spot in the repair kit.
Patching a tube is no big deal unless it's raining and carrying a spare tube isn't that difficult. I know a spare tire isn't that much bigger but the line had to get drawn somewhere. Tire failure usually is more severe than a little hole in the tube and not nearly as common. I've gotten big cuts in the tire from glass, big enough that when the tube was repaired it bulged out of the hole in the tire. I've had an old tire rip along the side wall. Rubber ages and sometimes it doesn't show. Sometimes it's just bad rubber to begin with. I've had the wire in the bead edge of a tire break (probably a manufactures defect). In every case, not only did I need to get home but I had to get to the nearest store to buy a replacement. That was ten miles away.
I pull out the tube where the damage is (often you have to patch the tube anyway). Pump the tube up to roughly the size it will be inside the tire and wrap the tube instead of the tire. The objective is to just make sure the tire doesn't bulge out of the hole and give you another flat. One of my online Australian friends has used one of their polymer bills to make a sleeve for that same purpose. I'm sure our new money in Canada will work just as well.
My tape of choice is electrical tape with apologies to duct tape aficionados like Red Green. It packs smaller, has a little bit of stretch to it and doesn't leave much glue residue on the tube when you're all done. Virtually any tape will get the job done though.
The biggest drawback to this kind of repair is the temptation to leave it that way a lot longer than you should. If you've done a quality job, your wheel will ride smoothly and you could potentially travel a very long way before it fails again. That might be great in an emergency but my recommendation is to get that tire replaced as soon as possible.
Incidentally we used to use electrical tape on the inside of the rim to cover the spoke nipples and keep them from wearing holes in the tube. I know there is a proper rubber strip for that purpose but a couple of laps of electrical tape on the rim did the job just as well and would never slip out of place while riding.

If you do a lot of riding you are going to get flat tires. Punctured tubes are easy enough to deal with on the road. It doesn't have to be a disaster.
Breaking spokes is such a pain in the posterior. This article might shed light on why they are breaking and what you can do about it.

Basically the fishing is pretty much the same as last week. Clear water in the bay has meant that the fishing has been a little slow at times during the day. The night period has been a better option for most with decent snapper and a few other species being taken around the islands on both baits and soft plastics.
I have had plenty of reports of small sharks being caught in the bay around the islands, even on lures. I have not personally sighted any of these critters in recent weeks but suspect they are the sand-bar sharks, which I think are a member of the whaler family. They must breed in the bay every year, as they often turn up en masse for a few weeks. It previous years this is usually in around April, however most species seem to be a little late in their migratory patterns this year. A few nice parrot to a little over 2kg were taken around Peel during the week along with a 43cm coral trout, which also pop up occasionally in this area. There was a 60cm specimen caught and released a few years ago on plastics on the western side.
A few large parrot have been caught around the Hanlon Light on half sand crabs. The usual conversion rate is only about 1 in 5 as most of them are in excess of 5kg and are near impossible to stop, even on 80lb braid and 150lb mono leaders. An occasional mackerel has been reported this week but they are definitely a rarity now that the water is cooling. We should get a good run of schoolies in the top end of the Rous Channel in 6 to 8 weeks. Cobia have been a little light on but there should be a few around in the coming month. Most of the beacons in the northern bay and areas such as Yellowpatch and Western Rocks will usually produce a few quality specimens.
Good numbers of squid are still being taken around the bay islands with St.Helena, Mud, Goat, Bird and the eastern side of Peel being worth a try. Over cast days, nights and early mornings are the best times to be trying in the shallows with squid jigs. Plenty of flathead have been caught up in the estuaries on both baits and lures. Most prominent banks are worth a try. Fish the tops of the banks on the last of the rising tide and the edges of the banks and into the adjacent gutters on the last of the run out tide and the first of the run in. Drifting whole fish baits such as frogmouth pillies, whitebait and hardiheads on a snelled hook rig with just enough lead to keep it close to the bottom will put you in with a great chance. Whilst this bait is large enough to catch flathead, tailor or trevally, it is small enough to tempt a whiting, bream or flounder.
Trolling the edges of the banks with small minnow lures or drifting along the edges and casting soft plastics can be highly effective on the falling tide. During this period, the flathead lurk along the banks looking for the baitfish and other food items which get forced off the bank with the receding water. At Jumpinpin, a few good bream have shown up, mostly caught on bait along the steeper sections of bank with fallen mangroves and other structure. Quality fresh baits fished at night have been the best approach. Pelagic activity in the bay has been rare but it still pays to have a spin rod rigged with a chromed offering when crossing its waters, as a school could pop up at any time.
May you bait be nervous.

The king of martial arts, Bruce Lee was born in what is named the dragon hour, between 6 AM – 8 AM on the 27th of November, 1940. There is hardly anyone who does not know this legend. He has made such an impact on the world of martial arts that every child looks up to him and wants to know all Bruce Lee Facts and be like him. It's his enormous talent and skill that made him so popular.
A humble man in nature, his skills were honed by his mentor Yip Man. Bruce Lee showed a lot of compassion towards the sport from his early ages. To everyone's grief, he passed away too soon only at the age of 32. Nevertheless, his name shines up to this day and his moves are followed by many in the combat sports and martial arts fields.
Unknown And Interesting Bruce Lee Facts
We all know Bruce Lee as the Macho Man. The fighter. The legend. There are also other Bruce Lee facts other than his fame in sports that would take you by surprise. Here we find out 10 interesting facts about Bruce Lee you probably did not know till date.
1. His movies were played in slow motion due to his speed
His actions were so fast that his fans will not be able to gather all his moves from watching his movies. As a results his movies were all played in slow motion. This gave ample time for his fans to inspect his moves and try to learn his skills and replicate them.
Watching his movies no one would have guessed that this man needs to slow down for others to actually see what he is doing.

Remember It
- Contemplate these questions, then click on each question to see the answer.
Discuss It
- Describe in your own words how the practice of one-minute shepherding can be effective.
- What are some hindrances that might prevent you from planning personal, pastoral shepherding events?
Apply It
- For the next four Sundays, pray about doing a one-minute shepherding event with someone. Plan it ahead of time and what you will say or ask the person. Also, for the next four Sundays, be open to whom the Holy Spirit might direct you to for a one-minute shepherding event.
- Plan to meet someone for coffee twice in the next month, with the express purpose of showing interest in the other person, listening and asking the Spirit will show you how you can be a spiritual encouragement.
- Read the "One Minute Shepherding" article.


text: Our Magnet Journey The visionary leader who inspires nurses at all levels to deliver excellence is the Chief Nursing Officer, Linda Pruett. During our six year journey, Kaweah Delta designed and implemented a councilor shared governance model, invested in development of nurses as leaders where they stand, and engaged all stakeholders, from bedside to boardroom, in creating a culture of caring. At the journey midpoint, Magnet Steering Committee members unanimously agreed to reorganize our subcommittee structure to align with components of the newly developed ANCC model for the Magnet Recognition Program® and adopt updated application requirements – an unexpected turn onto an unfamiliar path. Adversity repeatedly gave rise to innovation. The RN Magnet Profile, an internal demographic information collection database, was rebuilt less than one year prior to document submission. Just four months before the application deadline, Linda Pruett's concern resulting from a nurse executive conference provided impetus to produce an electronic document. Unique site visit preparations included designing distinctive flashcards and culminated in a compelling organization-wide appraiser welcome ceremony. Through Magnet Designation and exemplar recognition, Kaweah Delta Health Care District is honored to stand in the circle of excellence with our Magnet peers around the world!

It's just not solid. Yes and no. Having a directory with all of the pieces is useful, and is a lot more maintainable from a forward/backwards compatibility point of view. If we combine them I would rather do it as a cpio or a tar or an rpm.

I am conflicted on that one. If you are talking users and not developers it is usually easier to ensure that people have the right mtd drivers loaded. Last I looked the mtd code had a much better structure than flash_and_burn, allowing for much more code reuse and a lot more eyes looking at the problems. flash_and_burn on the other hand seems a great tool for developers, who know what should be happening but it doesn't seem to have as many checks to make certain that you aren't doing something stupid. > I also saw you have a newer lbflash version available as a binary than > as source.

It looks like someone forget to place the source rpm on the public ftp site. 2.1 is pretty much a maintenance release with the exception of a couple of very minor bug fixes nothing really has changed. So for getting a feel of the structure and the files we are currently using 2.0 should be reasonable starting point. >> The case that isn't currently covered is a checksum and that is only because >> it keeps slipping my mind.

Sure I don't have a problem with putting a checksum, crc or a hash in a data segment somewhere. It will likely take an extra linker pass to do that but that shouldn't be a problem. Ideally that would be one of the triggers for deciding if we go to fallback or normal mode. Hmm. In looking at things I just noticed that the decompressor doesn't have anything like that, which really is a bug. That I unfortunately didn't catch when I found that code. Eric
