Rent Our Space
UUCDC seeks to make our facilities available to the people of the community where they may satisfy their needs for devotion, work, study, discussions, concerns for public issues, or recreation. We do not assume responsibility for the opinions or activities of any organization/individual which is not officially connected with this church. Permission to use Church facilities does not necessarily constitute endorsement of the group or its goals.
Space at UUCDC may be rented by any group or function whose purpose, goals, ideals or philosophy is not inconsistent with the broad ideals of the Church, with the exception of fund raising for a specific candidate or candidates.
Renters will specify in their publicity that "meetings held at the Unitarian Universalist Church" rather than using language which may imply that there is sponsorship by or affiliation with the Church.
Priority for events is determined on a first-come-first-served basis. However, church sponsored events have priority where possible over requests for building use from non-church groups and individuals. The exception to this is rentals that have already been arranged.
Description of Facilities
This is a place for worship, ceremonies, concerts and suitable meetings and other events. It features a wood beamed cathedral ceiling and large windows which provide a view of the wooded grounds. In this room, no material may be affixed to the walls, or other surfaces by means of any fasteners such as nails, screws, etc. Tape may not be affixed to the walls or any painted surface. Food and/or beverages may not be brought into this room. Seating may be arranged to suit the needs of the lessee. Capacity is 200 persons.
Fellowship Hall:
The architecture and views from this facility are similar to that of the sanctuary. Seating may be arranged to suit the needs of the lessee. Capacity is 120 persons.
This more intimate space is located on the lower level and is adjacent to two classrooms. Seating may be arranged to suit the needs of the lessee. Capacity is 50 persons.
This room can hold up to 30 people.
Chairs may be taken to classrooms for meetings of 20 persons or less. They must be returned after the meeting. None of the materials in the day school classrooms should be used by any renter.
A microwave oven, stove and dishwasher are available, as are coffee urns, cups and trays. Space in the refrigerator is highly limited. Arrangements for kitchen materials must be made at the time of the rental agreement.
Usage Fees
The non-profit rate applies to non-profit groups who are registered 501-C(3) entities, or other such non-profits. However, this rate may NOT be used by groups who are charging an attendance fee for the event. A final determination on the status of any group with regard to non-profit status will be determined by the Board of Trustees.
A frequent user discount of 15% is available to groups who use the church a minimum of 4 times in a 12 month period. A summer use discount of 15% is also available from mid-June to mid-August. However, only one discount to apply.
Use by individual church members is not considered church use. Church members in good standing[1] may use the church facilities free of charge for "life passage events" such as weddings, memorial or funeral services, child dedications or any ceremonial event with a minister performing ritual. All other use of church facilities by members will be at the reduced rate offered to non-profit entities. In case of such rental, all normal rental rules and regulations apply.

|His Imperial Highness
|Position in MAKAI
|Son of the thunder god who is a well-known evil emperor in this universe.
|Date of Birth
|November 21, B.D.100034(B.C.98036)
|Place of Birth
|Onigashima in JIGOKU, "Hill Mountain".
Nobleman. Although H.H.RAIDEN is the fourth drummer of SEIKIMA II, H.H. has been a stalwart regular member since the advent of the band's debut on earth. H.H. is an avid researcher of many forms of entertainment. H.H. is an aficionado of all forms of video games. At bowling, video games and Mahjong, H.H. holds a master's title given to him by H.M.MAOH (the emperor of MAKAI). H.H. has written columns in game technical journals. H.H. enjoys reading novels, watching F-1 racing and "Rakugo" (Japanese storytelling monologues). H.H. is an avid movie critic, which means that H.H. spends most of his time indoors. Although H.H. is quite thin, his high metabolism doesn't allow for very much energy without constant refueling. In other words, H.H. is always hungry. H.H. is a voracious meat-eater, and on the days when H.H. is scheduled to lay down drum tracks, H.H. insists that his meals consist of deep-fried breaded pork cutlets. His favorite foods are Spaghetti Carbonara and "Katsudon" (deep fried pork cutlet with eggs and onions served over rice). Though most of his household budget is allotted for food, H.H. maintains a body with only 9 to 11 percent body fat. At a recent check-up, it was stated that H.H. has the body of a 25 year old. Though H.H. looks wild, H.H. is very methodical. So it is no surprise that his house is kept very clean. Because of his meticulous knowledge of both the set list and his meticulous attention the details of the intricate musical changes in each performed song, H.H. has been nicknamed, "Minister of General Affairs". Every two years or so, H.H. is known to suddenly strike a threatening pose.

Do you own a website or an online storefront? Maybe you are an affiliate marketer or an eBay seller and you are looking for ways to get more traffic to your pages. There are many advertising techniques that you can use, but there are only some that actually produce good results on a regular basis. Here are the top 3 online advertising techniques for you to use.
First, the best advertisement is anything you can get on Google. Google is the top search engine and is responsible for over 60% of the searches done online. They have a wonderful Pay Per Click option called Google AdWords that allows you to bid on specific keywords and pay per visitor to your website. These ads show up on the top, right hand side, and bottom of the Google search pages and you can have them show up on other websites as well.
The second options is a free option that will give you traffic for many years to come. Start writing articles about the subject of your website. Submit these articles to top article directories and you will be able to link back to your website in the author bio box or resource box at the bottom of your articles. These will get indexed and listed for relevant keywords on search engines. Plus other webmasters might pick them up and use them on their websites and in their newsletters with a link back to your website.
The third option is quite expensive, but will produce great and lasting results. Spend the money to hire a reputable company to create back links to your website and get you indexed on the first page of search engines all over the internet. This is a very costly option at first, but will pay dividends in the long run. Plus an added benefit to this advertising technique is that you will not be spending your own time working on advertising your site.

Obama: N. Korean Nuke Test 'Grave Threat'
President Obama released a statement Friday condemning North Korea's latest surprise nuclear test. He called it a "grave threat" to "international peace and stability." The test, which created a quake that registered as a 5.3-magnitude seismic event, was widely denounced by neighboring countries and international watchdogs. "North Korea stands out as the only country to have tested nuclear weapons this century," Obama said, calling Pyongyang's campaign of ballistic missile launches "unprecedented." He added, "To be clear, the United States does not, and never will, accept North Korea as a nuclear state."

Historians and philosophers of mathematics share an interest in the nature of mathematics: what it is, what features affect its growth, how it informs other disciplines. But much of the work done in history and philosophy of mathematics suggests that the two groups largely work in isolation. A reconsideration of the history of mathematical analysis in the 19th Century suggests that history and philosophy of mathematics can be done together to the advantage of both, and also how legitimately different enquiries need not drive them apart.

Planning for Retirement? Make the FLTCIP Part of Your Plan
If a loved one or friend has experienced a long term care event, you've probably seen how paying for assistance with the most basic daily activities, such as bathing and dressing, can impact savings and assets. Maybe you've also witnessed the sacrifices of time, energy, and money... Read more...
There are few options to pay the costs of long term care services:
Private Payment
You might consider using your savings to cover the cost of your long term care needs. Unfortunately, even the most well laid out plan is subject to unexpected challenges. In 2016, the national average cost of a semiprivate room in a nursing home was $91,615 annually.3 You may wish to consider the total cost if you need more than one year of care. For example, the cost of care for three years is $274,845. How long might it take to save for the cost of a nursing home stay today?
See If You Can Afford to Pay for Long Term Care Yourself
Also, there is no way to be sure that you will not need long term care before you have saved the appropriate amount to cover the increasing cost of care. Since life is full of surprises, unexpected events can eat away at your savings or the money that you may have counted on for long term care expenses.
Medicaid is a state-based program supplemented by Federal funds that acts as a safety net to provide health services to those who meet their state's poverty guidelines. Medicaid pays for the largest share of long-term care services, but only if you meet financial and functional criteria.2
Medicaid might cover your long term care costs if you meet your state's poverty criteria and receive care that meets your state's guidelines. Usually this means expending all but $2,000 of your assets and savings (except for, perhaps, your house and car). It also means receiving care from a limited number of state-approved caregivers (mostly institutions like nursing homes) that are willing to accept Medicaid's payments.
When Medicaid pays for long term care services, it limits your choice in terms of the type of care you can receive and where you can receive it. Many people "spend down" their assets to state-required levels to become eligible for Medicaid, using up their retirement nest-egg and resources intended for their heirs.
Some people will try to transfer their assets to a family member or a trust to avoid "spending down" their assets. The Federal government now allows states to go back five years to examine the finances of people applying for Medicaid.
If the state finds that assets were given away during that time period, they can impose a penalty period before you are eligible to receive benefits. Typically, this is determined by dividing the average monthly cost of nursing home care into the amount that was given away.
Medicaid eligibility requirements vary by state. For more information, contact your local Medicaid office or visit http://www.cms.hhs.gov/home/medicaid.asp.
VA-Funded Long Term Care
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health system makes certain long term care services available to veterans based on a priority ranking system, with highest priority given to those with severe service-related disabilities.
VA-funded long term care may be worth investigating, especially for veterans with service-related disabilities and/or limited incomes and assets. Keep in mind, however, that in addition to the priority ranking system, the availability of long term care services from the VA may be subject to funding limitations and may vary by geographic area.
For more information on eligibility for VA benefits, please visit www.va.gov/elig.
Long Term Care Insurance
Long term care insurance is a reliable method of paying for long term care expenses. You can find detailed information on long term care insurance in the section, The Basics of Long Term Care Insurance.

"We see a hundred businesses a day applying to us," says Bill Morrow, CEO of Angels Den. "The ones that get funding, the ones that actually stand out, are the ones that have the story, who can communicate the passion, who at the same time as the passion can also communicate what the key parts of the business are. Do you actually understand your business?"
Angels Den, a crowdfunding and mentor-matching platform for UK SMEs, has seen £18m invested to date and draws crowds of hopefuls at industry functions such as today's Elite Business Event in Shoreditch, London,
While the organisation carefully pre-vets all of the small businesses involved, Morrow says that, in reality, first impressions sway an investor more than any other factor.
"We give people four minutes usually at our major pitching events every month. Four minutes! And people say, oh you don't understand, my business is so special, I couldn't possibly condense it down to four minutes," he says.
"But actually, as with most human communication, when you're recruiting people, or when you fall in love with someone, it's the first 30 seconds. It's about the way that you're carrying yourself, the way that you're dressed, it's the way that your breath smells, the way that you're looking at people as you hand across a business card, whether your hands are clammy – just the way that you come across."
This means that business owners seeking funding need to go beyond explaining their products, services and growth potential. They need to be clear in their own minds on what kind of company they are and why they are doing what they're doing – and they need to be adept at articulating that in very few words.
"I always say… be honest, tell me how you got here!" enthuses Karen Gould, Facilitator and Mentor at Rockstar Group.
"I feel that it's very important that you tell it the way it is. I find that if you say it with your passion, and your drive, and it's something that feels real to you, then the audience connect and they feel that you're actually talking from the heart – it's not just something you've put together from a textbook.
"We want to know who you are, what it is you do, what it is you do so well, what it is you do different, and what it is that you do that's going to be better than your competitors."
Putting across a sense of who you that will engage and excite investors – or, indeed customers – is not something you can fake, however. It needs to be genuine, and that means avoiding a pitfall that many companies fall into, whereby they try to use marketing ploys as a proxy for personality. As Morrow brusquely explains, this is an expensive waste of time.
"The ones that do the business aren't the ones that hand out the free jelly beans, aren't the ones that have crazy little toys you give away," he says, referring to the lengths that some businesses go to at trade fairs and conventions.
"There are some people that spend a fortune on gimmicks, but if you ask people what is in the stand, what is the company about – what even is the company – they have no idea! It's about that human interaction and being able to tell people what problem it is that you can solve for them – identifying the people that have that problem and then telling them why you're the best company to do it."

Humble, TX: Where People Make a Difference
Like many locales in the Houston – The Woodlands – Sugar Land metro area, Humble was first settled in the mid-19th century. The city gained population steadily for the next 80 years or so, when oil was discovered in the region. Due to the economic opportunity provided by the unknown quantities of oil lying under the Texas soil, an influx of ambitious oilmen arrived in towns like Humble to try their hand in the oil markets. Humble boasted the most productive oil field in Texas in the first part of the 1910s; surely, this field contributed to the large growth in population in the early 20th century.
Until the late-20th century, Humble continued to churn out oil and to this day petroleum remains a crucial element of the city's economy. Since the city's incorporation, its population has grown to roughly 15,000 citizens. Humble's economy is supported by a concentration of commercial and industrial industry within the city's limits.

So… What Do You Do? What's Your 10-Second Commercial?

Dan Stalp has over 26 years of experience leading, training, and coaching high performing individuals. He has risked everything and completely started over twice career-wise, once in 1993 and again in 2005 by co-founding and founding his own firm. Dan has co-authored two books, "The Reunion" and "Antoerh Reunion," about career significance and how pursuing what you were "meant to do" – along with always being grateful – plays an instrumental role in being the best you can be.
When not being mistaken for a certain Hollywood movie star, Dan and his wife Lisa of 28 years travel to Dallas, TX and Fayetteville, AR to visit their two grown daughters. Or they are attending rugby and lacrosse events for their high school and college aged sons.
This first session will be held Wednesday, May 29, 2019 from 11:30am to 1:00pm at the Regnier Center of Johnson County Community College (12345 College Blvd, Overland Park, KS – Room 270). This class is open to the public and registration includes lunch.

Kieran Maher an eleven year old from Coventry, has received a new, state-of-the-art powered wheelchair to help boost his mobility, thanks to the joint fundraising efforts of customers and staff at Cashino adult gaming centre on North Street, in Rugby.
Kieran who lives with his mum, Roseanna, and sisters Angel (10) and Precious (5), suffers from Cerebral Palsy which restricts his movement. At the moment he mainly uses a manual wheelchair, but can only propel himself for a short distance before he tires, meaning he is very limited in his mobility – a situation that will be rectified by his new powered chair.
Kieran's mum Roseanna said: "This wheelchair will change Kieran's life completely. At the moment his muscles are incredibly weak so he can only propel himself for short distances and now that he's in secondary school he is finding it difficult to get around the school site and over steeper terrain.
"Kieran is so exhausted when he arrives at his classes he is unable to concentrate on his work and cannot participate with other school activities. The new electric wheelchair will not only increase Kieran's mobility, but will give him more energy to focus on his studies. I can't wait to see Kieran NOT struggling in his daily life."
Cashino, which operates 155 adult gaming centres across the country, is one of the main fundraisers for CHIPS, a charity set up on behalf of the casino and gaming industry, which aims to provide specialised powered wheelchairs for children with severe mobility problems.
The new state-of-the-art, powered wheelchair was presented to Kieran yesterday [Tuesday 15th December, 2015] by Cashino area manager, Chris Mann.
Speaking after the presentation he said: "Kieran is an extraordinary young man and is so deserving of this wheelchair. It is absolutely fantastic to see how much happiness it has brought to him and his mother, and it makes the fundraising efforts from all of our staff and customers throughout our estate certainly worth it."
Co-founder of the CHIPS charity Linda Lindsay said: "It is so important for CHIPS that our donors see the results of their hard work and we try to ensure that all the recipients are local to where the funds have been raised. Cashino have been amazing and to date have donated a massive £401,966 allowing CHIPS to provide 81 powered wheelchairs up and down the country."
To date CHIPS has raised over £1,500,000 and presented over 400 wheelchairs to children throughout the UK.

The basis of my entire Early Retirement plan is that I will be able to achieve enough in the way of investment returns over 10 and a half years to live off for 55 years (which will bring me to age 100). Both my wife and I realize that this goal is aggressive, and may not be doable – depending on both our investment returns, as well as our spending patterns over the next decade. If either differs significantly, our plans could change.
Although our day-to-day life is relatively stress free, due to my inherent nature as a financial worry-wart I do get concerned at times about our ability to maintain the lifestyle we want to have after retirement. I get troubled about the possibility of health problems, of market crashes, and many other things that could possibly go wrong – sometimes in excess.
The thing with most of these negative thoughts is they would be an issue whether I was retired or not. I don't get insomnia from these kind of dark thoughts, they just exist at the back of my mind sometimes – a part of my "personal finance" brain that won't shut off. I have (to a certain extent) included contingency plans into my financial "base".
I haven't included either my work pension or any government money into my financial plans. My defined-benefit work pension is not inflation-adjusted, which will obviously leave me much less buying power at retirement. I would prefer not to depend on CPP coming through, as I don't have a lot of faith in my government to pay up 30 years from now (whether right or wrong – as noted I'm a bit of a pessimist).
Either of these sources of income will provide a boost to my available dollars from age 65 – 70 onwards. This is the period of time that I am most concerned about – an age where it would be much more difficult to find a job anywhere, at any pay, and also an age range where the probability is high that health problems will become an issue and an additional boost to retirement funds will be welcome for peace of mind.
Both of these pension plans act as a savings plan that I really had no choice but to become involved with. I would have preferred to have control over either of them to do as I liked, but as a part of my overall plan, it seems like this buffer will add some insurance to my overall aggressive plan – beyond the obvious working for additional years.
Do you have a contingency in your personal finance plan?

While stationed in the Middle East in the late 1970's, I was required to travel through the Gaza Strip on patrols to Cairo and Ismailia, Egypt while serving with the United Nations Observer Force in Israel and Syria and United Nations Emergency Force in Egypt.
Israel has 8 main refugee camps in and around the Gaza and there are about 478,000 refugees living in United Nations War Relief Camps (UNWRA). The Gaza Strip is unique amongst UNWRA's five fields of operations as the majority of its population are refugees and over half of the refugees live in these eight camps. Most of the people who fled to the Gaza Strip as a result of the 1948 Arab-Israeli war were from Jaffa, towns and villages south of Jaffa and from the Beersheva area in the Negev.
Beersheva is a beautiful village on the southern outskirts of Tel Aviv (Ashkelon) and is often referred to in the Old Testament as a historical city. In all, some 200,000 refugees came to Gaza, whose original inhabitants numbered only 80,000. Such an influx severely burdened this narrow strip of land, an area of only 360 square kilometers. Over three-quarters of the current population of some 1.4 million are registered refugees; representing 22 per cent of all UNWRA Palestine refugees.
The refugee camps in the Gaza Strip have one of the highest population densities in the world. UNWRA Headquarters Gaza and the UNWRA Gaza Filed Office are located in Gaza City. The Agency co-operates its humanitarian work with the Palestinian Authority, which was established in 1994. The largest camp in the Gaza is Jabalia which has a growing population of over 106,800 refugees. In 1979, the camps were full of human suffering and it was not until the early 1990's that community centers and schools were constructed and food and water was supplied to the Camps.
While driving to Egypt on a special assignment in the summer of 1979 via the Sinai Desert and the Suez Canal, I realized that my jeep gas tank was short of fuel north of Beersheva. The 1950's army jeep required several fuel stops during the 1300 kilometer journey from Damascus to Suez. In fact, I generally parked the vehicle at the Check Point on the north side of the Sinai and crossed the Suez by a hand hauled ferry manipulated from the Egyptian side.
Approaching Gaza, I realized that transit of the 86 kilometer Sinai Desert would require more petrol and seeing a familiar Petrol Sign and UNWRA posted above the gas pumps and, not knowing that it was in fact Jabalia Refugee Camp, I parked and proceed to fill the gas tank. Within a minute of placing the nozzle into the tank, a huge commotion broke out and a mob of Palestinians surrounded me and began rocking my vehicle. I was mortified as I was dragged into a crowd of angry and ululating Arabs.
Fearing for my life, I surrendered to the throng and found myself being pushed further into the camp. Hundreds of burned out vehicles, crudely constructed huts and rusted and twisted tin shelters overshadowed open sewers and filth. The squalor was devastating and left my mouth agape in shock. The stench was overwhelming and I soon forgot about the fact that I might be torn apart by the angry mob.
In an attempt to explain myself, I was physically shoved to an outbuilding surrounded by wailing and screaming women and soon learned that the women create a wailing diversion to goad the men to physical action and, upon being shoved into a crudely constructed building, an official in a dirty keyfia started shouting at me in Arabic. I was confused and pleaded for an interpreter.
Several minutes of tense interaction resulted in an official entering the sweltering room who, to my relief, spoke some English. It was soon evident that the interpreter spoke enough English that he was able to convey that I had been arrested by the tribal overseers for stealing gasoline from the UN Petrol Station. In absolute horror, knowing that theft was a severe punishment in the middle east, I set about to explain that I thought UNWRA was a United Nations Organization and that as a UN Peacekeeper, I was entitled to fuel vehicles at UNWRA Stations. However, I soon learned that UNWRA was not affiliated with UNDOF and that gas at the refugee camp was a precious and life saving commodity and that petrol thieves could be executed under local tribal law.
As I had only Syrian Pounds and a few American Dollars in my pocket, I offered to pay for the petrol in US money. A lengthy and heated conversation ensued between the interpreter and the camp officials and, after a painful and fearful amount of time, it was agreed that I could pay for the gas with US dollars.
As I drove from the Camp my heart ached for the refugees of Jabalia and the fact that I had mistakenly taken precious fuel from displaced, hungry and underprivileged people of a war ravaged refugee camp. Filled with guilt at having so much prosperity in my life, I made a decision to return to the camp upon my return from Egypt with the intention of giving them some food and money. However, this was not to happen as I encountered other tragic and dangerous situations during my journey to Cairo and returned to Syria without having had the opportunity to make amends to the Camp at Jabalia.

In this groundbreaking book, energy systems modelling expert Dr Gregor Czisch analyses electricity supply options for Europe and its neighbouring regions. He describes how our electricity supply could be structured in an optimally cost-effective manner largely based on currently available technologies. Czisch proposes that power plant usage and selection be optimised in a manner that takes full account of the availability and intermittency of renewables. To this end, the author provides a number of solutions entailing a wide range of thought-provoking scenarios.
Czisch's visionary study shows that a pan-European renewables-based supergrid using high-voltage DC lines extending into North Africa could supply an area spanning 50 countries with a combined population of 1.1 billion. The author demonstrates that such a supergrid would obviate the need for fossil fuels and nuclear power, and that its costs would be on a par with or perhaps even lower than our current electricity supply system.
Book readership
Students and professionals with an interest in the field or for those working in renewable energy, politicians and other energy decision makers.
Book contents

Ring of Honor returned to Essington, PA at the Ramada Inn on Saturday 8/7. The show was highlighted by an 80 minute main event between Austin Aries and Bryan Danielson, a championship title change, and a near-riot that left fans buzzing. It was a strong show that will hold up well on video.
The show opened up John Walters pinning Nigel McGuiness to earn a Pure Wrestling championship match against Doug Williams on 8/28 in Braintree, MA in 8:02. This was a good bout with some strong back and forth wrestling. McGuiness has a great spot where he does a handstand in the corner and kicks his opponent as they charge. Walters looked solid here as well. The crowd has really taken to him in recent months. His challenge in MA is the perfect hometown boy does good storyline. This was the perfect place to put this style of match as the crowd is hot to see wrestling and happy watching the style.
Roderick Strong pinned Izzy in 6:31. This was a continuation of the Generation Next vs. Special K feud with the idea that Dixie was out of action from Strong splitting his chest open with chops last month in New Jersey. The first thing I noticed when Special K came out was that there was hardly anyone there - not even Hijinx was at ringside. Another good undercard bout. Strong is really fun to watch, although its amazing how young he is. After the match, Strong and laid out Cloudy and Cheech of Special K. Strong was menacing Becky Bayless when Angeldust hit a flurry of moves and ran him off. I guess it's going to be Dust vs. Roderick next. Works for me.
The Carnage Crew defeated Danny Maff & BJ Whitmer in 9:17.. Allison Danger did mic work before the match noting that she put Maff and Whitmer against The Crew as revenge for walking out on the Prophecy. She said that she could put them against anyone, and intimated they would have to face Mick Foley on 9/11, although it was never said that openly. She cut a good promo. The Crew ripped on her for being a nagging woman, just like their wives at home. That was funny. This was a good match that quickly turned into a brawl. I actually thought they were going to end up calling it a no contest since they were on the floor for so long. It ended up with The Crew hitting their spike piledriver on Maff for the pin. Loc continues to get bigger and he added a sick looking tribal tattoo to his back. DeVito actually got to the show as the first match was starting due to travel issues, so the match they put together with so little planned was great considering the circumstances.
Gary Michael Cappetta came out and announced that Jim Cornette, Stan Lane, Dennis Condrey, and Bobby Eaton would all reunite as the Midnight Express on the promotion's return to Philadelphia on 10/2. They played the Midnights' theme after the announcement. It got a pretty big pop which surprised me as ROH's audience skews younger. I love how the promotion always has Cappetta doing the announcement and introductions of the 1980s NWA stars.
Alex Shelley defeated Jay Lethal, Ace Steel & 2 Cold Scorpio by pinning Lethal in 18:09. This was just an excellent match with Scorpio was making his first Philadelphia appearance in years. He looked to be in great shape and was working really hard. He did an impromptu seminar with a lot of the boys before the show, working matches with them and giving them tips. It was something he just offered to do on the fly as opposed to something he was brought in to do. That says a lot about him. There was some really great back and forth work here. Scorpio and Steel ended up having a partnership of sorts during the latter part of the match (I guess because they both work for NOAH?). Shelley gloated and ripped on everyone after he won the match. If I was him, I wouldn't be gloating so much knowing Goldilocks is in my weekly future. Shelley also mentioned Foley on the mic. Does Generation Next have a Mr. Socko in their future? After the match, Scorpio put over ROH as "The real deal" and tried to get Lethal to dance with him to his old ECW music, "Jungle Boogie." Lethal tried to get out of the ring, but Scorpio pulled him back in. Lethal legitimately wanted out as he doesn't dance, but eventually gave in a little. It was a fun moment.
The Briscoe Brothers defeated Low Ki and Homicide in 12:44. when Jay reversed an attempted Ki Krusher and turned it into a small package on Ki. The fans still cheered the hell out of Ki. Homicide and Ki destroyed the Briscoes, leading to a pull apart melee involving Samoa Joe, CM Punk and others. Ki laid out Jay with several kicks, so Mark Briscoe was going nuts trying to get at him. It was an insanely intense brawl with everyone trying to hold back Briscoe. Joe was screaming at Ki that he would see him in September. At one point, a chair flung by Ki hit referee Paul Turner in the head, knocking him cold. He was OK afterwards. The intense brawl actually knocked down one of the partitions separating the crowd from the locker room before heading outside the building. They continued outside the building, which led to hotel guests calling the cops. ROH's security had to explain to the police that nothing that wasn't supposed to happen took place. The cops understood and no one got in trouble, although they hung around awhile to make sure.
In the first match after intermission, The Rockin' Rebel pinned Cloudy from Special K in 1:41. The Embassy faction attacked Special K, which led to Dunn and Marcos making the save to "We're Not Gonna Take It."
In another good match, The Havana Pitbulls defeated CM Punk and Colt Cabana to win the ROH Tag Team championships in 19:09. After Punk made his way to the ring to his theme music, Ace Steel announced somberly that due to the events of this past week, Cabana couldn't come out to Copacabana. He then introduced Cabana as the "Original Superfreak" and Cabana came out to Rick James' Superfreak as a way to honor the funk star, who passed away this week. The look on Punk's face during all of this was pure disgust. It was brilliant. The crowd loved the entrance. The match itself was a good back and forth tag match. The Pitbulls got a ton of heat on Punk, with Cabana trying to get at them only to be held back by the referee. When he finally got the hot tag, the place went nuts. The crowd seemed surprised by the title change. Julius Smokes was awesome at ringside here.
ROH champion Samoa Joe pinned Trent Acid in 8:04 with the Island Driver. Acid legitimately hurt his ankle hitting a hurrancanrana and went to the hospital immediately after the bout. He was diagnosed with a bruised heel bone. They played up that Joe was banged up, with Acid going after his leg. At one point, Joe acted as if he leg went out from under him. It was a good match but I don't think the crowd thought Acid had a chance of walking out with the belt. Acid got a big round of applause as he was carried out of the ring. After the match, he was more upset with not giving the fans the match he wanted to put on than about being injured.
In a Best of Three Falls with Each Fall Consisting of One Hour Time Limits, Austin Aries defeated American Dragon Bryan Danielson, 2 falls to 1. In the First Fall, Aries forced Danielson to tap out to Danielson's own cattle mutilation in 42:12. They did 30 second rest periods between the falls, giving each guy water. The second fall saw Danielson beat Aries by hooking him in the cattle mutilation and then turning it into a pinfall combination at 20:29. The third and deciding fall saw Aries defeat Danielson with the 450 Splash, preceded by several brainbusters, in 11:54. The fans were changing match of the year when it was over. I wouldn't go that far but the effort that both put out there was simply incredible. This is a match that was decent live but once you get a chance to sit there on video and pay close attention, will come off so much better. The total match time was 74:12, so figure with the rest periods, introduction and post match they were out there at least 80-85 minutes.
If you can believe it, the 80-85 minutes scenario wasn't the original plan. Earlier in the day, Bryan Danielson pitched a scenario where they would wrestle to two one hour draws, going into a 45 minute third round. ROH approved immediately, feeling it would be something special and not wanting to turn down the wrestlers if they wanted to put forth such an awesome effort. Once they got into the ring, they decided to call an audible which led to the "shorter" 80 minute bout. I don't think anyone who came to see good wrestling was going to complain, although I really would have liked to see how the longer match would have gotten over with the crowd and what they would have pulled out of their bag of tricks. Perhaps ROH can go with an empty arena match and they will get the chance down the line.
Overall, this was fun show with lots of good stuff underneath and an amazing effort on top. You can get the video at www.ROHWrestling.com.
Notes: As previously reported, Christopher Daniels was at the show as he filmed a shoot interview with the promotion that afternoon. Samoa Joe also filmed a shoot interview on 8/7....The SATs were backstage visiting. I don't believe there are any plans for their return to the company....Joel Gertner from ECW popped up visiting, as he was in the area.

Seven-Story Tricycle Brings New Meaning To Pop-Up Venues [Pics]
A mobile restaurant that can handle customers wherever it is pedaled to.
From afar, the seven-story tower might look like a radio tower, but after closer inspection, it is actually a mobile restaurant that has been mounted on a tricycle. Designed by Swiss architecture firm Bureau A, this project for Tadioto, a local bar and entertainment centre, has multiple uses, ranging from a street-food venue to an exhibition space. If you are lucky, you might catch this store-on-wheels strolling through the streets of Hanoi in Vietnam.
The structure features a light-blue framework made of steel tubes, which is strong enough to support a decently sized man. There is a small PVC roof, as well as a fan and lamp. Daniel Zamarbide designed it to be a form of "performance" that infuses local culture and practices. In the close-knit community of Vietnam, space-saving venues like this seven-storey restaurant are far more efficient than other ones.

A few years back when I was still pretty new to the game, I had the great fortune of meeting one of the true Texas old timers while he was still somewhat active. The story itself is somewhat comical.
It started off when I was interested in buying a pup off Duhon's Mean Pete. I talked to Ronnie several times about this breeding and as I said still being new, I was full of questions. The subject got around to his dog Duhon's Moon. He was telling me about Moon's gameness. For those that don't know, during a contest in South La., Moon was on top of a down dog. It was the middle of the night and Moon was to scratch to win. Ronnie, being about as Cajun as they come, told me "That dog was about 3/4 gone and couldn't even twitch, let alone stand." To make matters worse he was a black dog and in Ronnie's own words "as black as a witch's heart". The call came to "Face your dogs", and Moon was released. He shot across the pit like his back end was on fire and hit that black dog so hard that the force almost shot them both through the corner of the pit. Well the whole point of this is Ronnie told me a man up in the Dallas area had a video of Moon. So he gave me his phone number and told me to call him. I called, and from that point on my life with the dogs would never be the same.
Come to find out this dogman had a dog that he needed to bring into the vet's office, and this particular vet just happened to be the same one that my family and I had used my entire life. So now it was set, I was to meet him at the Vet's office after closing in a couple of days.
By the time I got there he was pretty much finished, so we went next door to the Dairy Queen and sat and talked. I listened to his stories for what seemed like half the night. He told me about how he'd seen this dog and that dog go, about the big conventions in Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. All these dogs I had only read about and he had seen them first hand. Boomerang, Bolio, Barney, Art you name it, Bobby was either there or he was the ref! What more could I ask for?
Then it happened. He invited me out to his place for a little get together between friends and they were even going to Bar BQ with of course a little bulldogin too. I got directions and told him I would definitely be there. Now keep in mind this was the first time I had ever met the man, he didn't know me from Adam. We walked outside and he gave me a couple of magazines that he published (Face Your Dog) to read until I came to his house. I could hardly wait.
A couple of days later, I pulled up at his place and found my way over to the barn where everyone seemed to be gathered. He made all the introductions. A number of well known fanciers were there including Coy and L. Keyes. After we all had our fill of the Bar BQ it was time to start weighing some dogs. The first contest was about to begin when he noticed me standing off kinda behind the crowd, keeping to myself. He pulled up a 5 gallon bucket and set it next to the pit wall and said to me "Son, get over here, I gotta job for you", at the same time handing me a stopwatch. That's right, not only was I there but I was keeping time! That night I saw some good ones go, including some off Red Rock, & Banjo and BB Red before they reached their Grand Champion fame.
One of the things I distinctively remember is how he kept going on and on about a movie starring Warren Oates. It's called "CockFighter", and if you ever get the chance, buy it. I recomend it to anyone interested in a game animal.
When the night finally came to a close at about 1:00 am, and all was said and done, my life as a dogman was forever changed. I owe that part of my journey to him. He was honest, trusting and never badmouthed a dog or a dogman. He was probably the only man in America that didn't know "Dogfighting" was against the law! The fraternity definitely suffered a setback with his early and untimely death. To this day I still miss being able to call him up and talking dogs.
This tribute is to the epitome of Texas Dogmen; in fact this man was the epitome of the true Dogman. Bobby Smith, a True Warrior.

suggestions for Vancouver, Canada?

We will have a few days in Vancouver in mid-June after visiting Banff and Lake Louise. DH was a city planner so his idea of fun is to ride the public transportation as far out as possible to see neighborhoods. I like markets, neighborhoods, and a museum or two. We'll be staying near the library which I will enjoy visiting. Any moderately-priced suggestions for meals? The only thing I can't eat is soy.

(CNN) -- "Whoops..."
That's the last thing you want to say after sending an e-mail. Like a former colleague of mine at The Wall Street Journal, who nervously asked a co-worker to delete an e-mail she mistakenly sent to her (an unlikely request to the journalist, who opened the note and learned the sender thought she was a "b----"). Or an outgoing editor who sent a reporter a note -- intended for the new editor -- describing the employee as a "know-it-all."
Accidental delivery is only one issue that bedevils the e-mail office culture -- loss of productivity due to constant e-mail interruption and angry e-mail arguments are on the rise. More than one in five companies reported they had fired employees due to e-mail misuse, according to a 2003 study of 1,100 companies sponsored by the American Management Association.
And the emotional tone of e-mails only stands a 50-50 chance of being accurately understood by the reader, according to a joint study at New York University and the University of Chicago early this year.
"The problem of e-mail is basically two things: volume and interpretation," said Adrian Furnham, a professor of psychology and business at University College of London.
"The scariest thing is just seeing people's in-boxes and the amount of effort dealing with notes as they comes in -- or rather failing to deal with it," said Jeremy Wagstaff, author of the recent book, "Loose Wire: A Personal Guide to Making Technology Work for You." "The vast majority of people -- whether CEOs or ordinary grunts -- can't seem to get their e-mail organized."
Even in the supposedly "flat" organizational structure of many technology companies, class warfare is being waged via e-mails, according to David Owens, a management researcher at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. Owens dissected 30,000 e-mails of a defunct California high-tech company four years ago and found e-mail style revealed where workers rank in the company.
" I avoid using humor in e-mails; it doesn't travel well, especially British irony" - Adrian Furnham, professor of psychology and business, University College of London
Top executives tend to send terse e-mails that suggest "I'm too busy," Owens said. Middle managers are chronic "cc:ers," sending long, verbose e-mails to many recipients as an attempt build influence in their corporate ladder climb. (They also are most likely to send e-mails late at night as a way to saying, "Look how late I work," he said). Lower-level employees are more likely to forward jokes and lace their notes with emoticons, he said.
No matter where you sit in the corporate food chain, too much e-mail appears to be bad for your brain: A study last year in Britain found that use of e-mail, because of its constant interruptions, decreased IQ and concentration more than smoking marijuana. The survey of 1,100 people, sponsored by Hewlett Packard and TNS Research, found that the IQ scores of volunteers fell by 10 points during the day as they juggled messages and work, compared to a 4-point drop of those smoking cannabis.
To clear up the haze created by e-mail, Wagstaff -- who writes a popular Web log on technology (www.loosewireblog.com) -- said "you have to aim at the end of the day to make sure there is nothing in your inbox, otherwise you will always be backpedaling." Answer immediately anything that can be done in two minutes: longer than that, put in a folder categorized by project or subject matter for later response.
A good way to assist is to create filters which automatically forward mail by subject or sender to the appropriate folder. Holding fire before replying can also avoid falling into a flame-out fight: "There has really been a demise of the considered response, we tend to not reply to e-mail in a way that is conducive to business," he said.
"I avoid using humor in e-mails; it doesn't travel well, especially British irony," said Furnham, the business psychologist. Although he receives on average 100 e-mails a day, he has a policy never to e-mail anyone on his same floor, tries to send no more than 10 e-mails a day --only one of which can be "cc:ed" to multiple recipients. "If I haven't responded to an e-mail in 48 hours, I delete it," he said.
Added Wagstaff, "The benefits of all this is you feel on top of what you're doing and making more of a mental space to be a proactive person than constantly reactive."
Sending and receiving e-mails has become a ubiquitous aspect of office culture.

I miss this community dearly, and the deadness of it makes my heart cry, so I opened up this:
a work in progress obviously
It's not meant to replace this community, but more as a supplement since a large population of the media-sharing part of livejournal has moved to tumblr due to the convenience and layout. I am reposting a lot of my old Daily FRUiTS scans and we are still working on the layout to include more links back to this community and the members (and links to commenting here, etc).
Please feel free to join in and submit your past/recent entries, and be sure to link back to the post on LJ if you want. Also, tag away brands/styles/names because that will be a big part of the layout once we're done with it.

|Dr Omogbai Omo-Eboh, President, MAAN
The Maritime Arbitrators Association of Nigeria (MAAN) says arbitration of maritime disputes is cost-effective for ensuring speedy resolution of disputes.
The President of the association, Dr Omogbai Omo-Eboh, who spoke in an interview in Lagos, said: ``arbitration does not come cheap as people may think.''
Omo-Eboh said people still thought that they need not pay for arbitration and attributed it to lack of awareness.
``The other challenge we face is that even for those who come for our services, arbitration is not cheap. I must make that clear to you.
``You have to pay for the services of the arbitrator and you pay commercial rates unlike when you go to the courts.
``So, arbitration is not cheap and once you advise parties about the costs involved, they tend to shy away. But you see, you must look at the benefits.
``In as much as arbitration is not cheap, I will tell you that it's cost-effective and is cost-efficient, in terms of the fact that you get a speedy resolution.
``And in addition to that, an expert in that field who understands the issues at stake in and out is the judge who resolves that dispute for you.''
According to Omo-Eboh, arbitration helps to sustain business relationship of the parties involved after the dispute is resolved, as they can continue doing business with one another.
He said another major challenge was the place of arbitration, which was mostly determined by the ship owners involved in the disputes.
Omo-Eboh, who is also a maritime lawyer, said that since the ship owners were foreigners, arbitration usually took place in such foreign arbitration forum, which might cost more.

SAN FERNANDO (CBS/AP)—A Valencia man who was arrested for allegedly threatening to murder children on a sports website was not charged Wednesday for making those comments.
Instead, the District Attorney charged Eric Yee, along with his father, with possession of an illegal assault rifle, which was found in the suspect's home.
Yee, a 21-year-old Yale dropout, was taken into custody on Monday for making the death threats on an ESPN blog about Nike shoes named after Miami Heat star, LeBron James.
He admittedly made the comments after watching the film, "American Psycho," starring Christian Bale.
Yee's attorney, David Wallin, said his client was never guilty of the criminal threats.
"He was guilty of 'felony stupid' for making stupid remarks he never should have made. However, they weren't a crime. That's what we believed all along. We sent the DA's office three letters to establish those facts, and I believe they did the right thing not to file the charge," he said.
Wallin also indicated the assault weapon belonged to Yee's father.
"(Police) arbitrarily came across a weapon that was 27 years old, bought by the father, and has never fired one time in 27 years. My client, his son, has never touched it. Didn't even know where it was," he said.
A judge reduced Yee's bail to $100,000 from $1 million.
He's due back in court Oct. 16, as his arraignment was postponed.

Writing and distributing your app press release is a step you don't want to skip. You started your app marketing efforts early, you've built a mailing list (and checked it), you've engaged your users and got useful feedback. Your app is awesome and almost ready to be launched. Now you need to let journalists, bloggers and key influencers you identified in your app domain know about it. Even the big guys in the industry don't assume that bloggers will automatically know about your app, so why should you?
But how do you write an effective press release? You have to respect the standard rules and syntax so that it's easy for reporters and bloggers to scan your story for its key elements. You also want to make sure that by scanning it, they will get a good sense of what's unique and newsworthy about your app (it is, right?).
What you also want to keep in mind is that you have to stay factual in your press release and not be using marketing adjectives like "great", "amazing" and so forth. Finally, keep it under one page.

- Are press releases too old school?

Breaking down the press release structure
To help you write your press release here is a sample of one and a breakdown of its elements. The press release example below is based on the one given by Dave Wooldridge in its book "The Business of iPhone App Development" and seems to be working just fine.
Before we start: the question of when to send your press release to your contacts is an important one. If you want journalists not to publish a story right away you can mention "Under embargo until" on the press release. That allows you to send it to them a few days prior to launch, along with your app demo video, and it lets them write their story to publish it on your app launch date. Be careful, though, they sometimes just ignore the embargo (so repeat it in your email as well).
Also, you don't want to send them an actual attachment like the file below (which is more for your press kit): you should insert your text-only press release in the body of your email. Finally, don't just mass-email all your identified contacts: try to learn more about what they write and for who. Show them that you know their work (don't try too hard, though).
Press release example
A: App Icon & app name / Company
Insert your magnificent app icon at the top of the press release along with your app name (not the "long version" you might use on the AppStore or Google Play). It could also be your company name and logo, depending on which one you want to put the focus on (if your company is unknown, I suggest you focus on the app).
B: Subject line
This one is key. Like said before, you should stay factual and use something like "company releases product for the platform". It's pretty hard but if you can, make it captivating and try mentioning something unique about your app (an award, its usage, etc.).
C. Summary line
If you haven't lost journalists by now, this is where you have to convince them that your story is worth reading (and therefore that theirs will be too) so they go through more of your press release. You want to make clear what are the basics of your app and what makes it unique at the same time.
D. Introduction
Start with your location and release date. Re-explain in 2/3 sentences what your app is all about (not the features, the actual goal of the app) and who it is for.
E. Screenshots
Obviously, that's only for the press release pdf you'll put in your app press kit, not for the text-only version you'll send in the body of your emails. Since you already have made and selected the best screenshots for your app details page on the store, why not use them?
F. Description
This part is the main body of your press release, and should (and I'll just quote Dave) "explain in concise detail exactly what your app does, what features and benefits it provides, and why people should care". A great addition to the app explanation is a nice and short quote from you or from a partner. Besides being pretty fun to write, it lets you bring up a different aspect of the app. Here's a good post on how to write a killer press release quote.
G. Pricing
availability and coming up. Just a line or 2 full of facts: stating the app's price, the OS requirements, countries, etc. What I like to add is a really short preview/teaser of what's coming up: the next app to come in the same app series or something exciting. Make sure you don't confuse the reader, though.
H. Website URL and info
These were you want to mention your app website's or company website URL and suggest visiting it for more information, screenshots and demo videos.
I. About your company
Throw a line about your company at the end of your press release. You can mention awards or other well-known and appreciated apps you've produced.
J. End of the press release
The "###" symbols in the centre mark the end of the press release content.
K. Media contact information
That's where you put some info about how to reach you for further information or interviews. Don't hesitate to give several ways to reach you. So here it is, the basic structure for your app press release. Now make good use of it! You can use press releases for other things than your app launch: an award, a new platform supported, a v2, etc.
Are press releases too old school?
Maybe, but they still work. Sometimes old school can be better depending on who you're targeting. If you're writing to a newspaper reporter, an official press release is a way to go and an old school doesn't mean it has to be boring. Press releases are not dead. On the other hand, a press release is not meant for all public and if you want to target social media or your potential users you can also write an alternative press release. Check out this great post by CopyBlogger on how to write a social media press release.
Where to distribute, submit or send your press release?
We'll talk more about that in another post but besides the blogs that will depend on the market, your target. Do some research and identify who are the key influencers you should contact. Of course, not everyone you contact will publish a story about your app so don't lose faith and try to develop relationships with reporters/bloggers.
Additionally, on the launch date, you can also consider submitting your press release to sites like PRWeb or PRMac. There's no shortage of Press Release submission websites but definitely go for quality, not quantity.

Good morning my beauty & style enthusiast's. Have you received your October Glam Bag? I did, and I was in love with the bag before I even discovered the contents. What can I say?…I'm a sucker for gold! Overall, I give this months bag 3.5 out 5 stars.
- If you're in the market for a non transferable long lasting lipstick look no further. Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick is definitely the one! I was astonished as a drank, ate, and kissed without any smudges or transfer. I wouldn't recommend this as a every day lipstick because matte products can be drying, but it's perfect for dates, and girls night out. I'm wearing this lipstick in the photo below.
- As the seasons come, and go I need a little extra help in the skin care department. So, I welcomed the chance to try Come Clean: Propolis & Minerals Facial Scrub. It's a gentle scrub, but it get's the job done, and so far the ingredients haven't caused any discomfort or break outs.
- I 'm more of a natural brow kind of girl so on my own I never would've tried the Mini Browza Super Proof Gel Brow Pencil. However, if you need or want a product to help your brows appear fuller this will be a good fit for you.
- Not sure if you all have ever noticed, but I don't have eye lashes due to severe allergies so I used the Hello Lashes® Clinically Proven 5-in-1 Mascara on some one else. We were both pleased with the application and appearance, but it's not water or sweat proof. So don't reach for this one in wet or humid climates.
- I'm not a fan of floral or spicy scents so the Exotic & Spicy Eau de Parfum isn't for me but it may be for you.
As always thank you for reading, commenting, and liking!

Well bless me. It's colours like these that remind me why I love OPI so much.
OPI's Every Month is Oktoberfest, from the 2012 Germany collection, is one of those OPIs with an old-school feel. It's a beautiful inky colour with a deep purple-blue base, filled with subtle yet highly reflective red shimmer. The combination of the dark base with the intense shimmer makes this polish one of those "glowing from within" types. In the shade, it looks like a vampy creme, almost black. But when the light hits it, it positively glows. Shimmer aside, it also has a beautiful glossy finish.
The formula is also reminiscent of the old-school OPIs – smoothly flowing, liquid-y, never gloopy. Yet, it's quite opaque – you should only need two coats with this. As always, the ProWide brush is fantastic and makes application a breeze. Definitely worth checking out for the fall season!

Re: New Song. Dance House Electro Step Floor Burn-Up
Lots going on in this one, but overall I felt it was just too sharp sounding. Like everything had a huge EQ boost at 3kHz making it bright to the point of painful at louder volumes. You've got a lot of cool synth sounds though, and the drums worked well for a dance song. I liked the vocals too, those should be used more IMO.

This section describes the basic Dired commands to operate on one file or several files. All of these commands are capital letters; all of them use the minibuffer, either to read an argument or to ask for confirmation, before they act. All of them give you several ways to specify which files to manipulate:
If you give the command a numeric prefix argument n, it operates on the next n files, starting with the current file. (If n is negative, the command operates on the −n files preceding the current line.)
Otherwise, if some files are marked with *, the command operates on all those files.
Otherwise, the command operates on the current file only.
Here are the file-manipulating commands that operate on files in this way. (Some other Dired commands, such as ! and the % commands, also use these conventions to decide which files to work on.)
Copy the specified files (dired-do-copy). The argument new is the directory to copy into, or (if copying a single file) the new name.
If dired-copy-preserve-time is non-nil, then copying with this command sets the modification time of the new file to be the same as that of the old file.
The variable dired-recursive-copies controls whether directories are copied recursively. The default is to not copy recursively, which means that directories cannot be copied.
Delete the specified files (dired-do-delete). Like the other commands in this section, this command operates on the marked files, or the next n files. By contrast, x (dired-expunge) deletes all flagged files.
Rename the specified files (dired-do-rename). The argument new is the directory to rename into, or (if renaming a single file) the new name.
Dired automatically changes the visited file name of buffers associated with renamed files so that they refer to the new names.
Make hard links to the specified files (dired-do-hardlink). The argument new is the directory to make the links in, or (if making just one link) the name to give the link.
Make symbolic links to the specified files (dired-do-symlink). The argument new is the directory to make the links in, or (if making just one link) the name to give the link.
Change the mode (also called "permission bits") of the specified files (dired-do-chmod). This uses the chmod program, so modespec can be any argument that chmod can handle.
Change the group of the specified files to newgroup (dired-do-chgrp).
Change the owner of the specified files to newowner (dired-do-chown). (On most systems, only the superuser can do this.)
The variable dired-chown-program specifies the name of the program to use to do the work (different systems put chown in different places).
Print the specified files (dired-do-print). You must specify the command to print them with, but the minibuffer starts out with a suitable guess made using the variables lpr-command and lpr-switches (the same variables that lpr-buffer uses; Section 31.18).
Compress the specified files (dired-do-compress). If the file appears to be a compressed file already, it is uncompressed instead.
Load the specified Emacs Lisp files (dired-do-load). Section 25.7.
Byte compile the specified Emacs Lisp files (dired-do-byte-compile). .
Search all the specified files for the regular expression regexp (dired-do-search).
This command is a variant of tags-search. The search stops at the first match it finds; use M-, to resume the search and find the next match. Section 24.16.6.
Perform query-replace-regexp on each of the specified files, replacing matches for from (a regular expression) with the string to (dired-do-query-replace).
This command is a variant of tags-query-replace. If you exit the query replace loop, you can use M-, to resume the scan and replace more matches. Section 24.16.6.
One special file-operation command is + (dired-create-directory). This command reads a directory name and creates the directory if it does not already exist.
