Gentoo X server freezes /var/lib/init.d/ files input output error
The very first thing that happened is : unable to start X server (nvidia), black screen and all freezes.
When I rebooted (ugly rude manual reset of course...) :
During init process, it says it can't remove files, etc...
I can't even read files in /var/lib/init.d/ : interactive, softscripts, snapshot, options, started, starting, inactive, stopping, exclusive and exitcodes.
When I try ls-ing this directory it says : input/output error at boot time and shutdown time.
Ok, the file system is corrupted due to the manual reset...I tried to fix it with a "fsck", ok, that worked fine but I still can't start the X server though, and , of course, no KDE...Back to Windows, duh !!! :-(
I didn't change anything or install anything, the disks aren't full...
Any clue about this ?

FERRY services between two Outer Hebridean islands have been hit after a ship was taken out of service for urgent repairs.
The MV Lord of the Isles is being sent to a drydock in Liverpool after a fault in its hull was discovered on Tuesday, forcing the cancellation of all sailings to Barra and South Uist.
It is hoped she will return for the start of next week. The problems were picked up as part of a routine inspection. The MV Clansman will provide some sailings to Barra in the coming days but it's unclear when a ferry will next call into South Uist.

Winter started playing pretend!
I gave her some of her little puff cereal pieces, and she took the can, pretended to pour some out, and ate a piece. Did it for every piece like she was serving herself. So cute! She's been putting everything that makes noise to her head like a phone, too, but I couldn't tell if she just liked the music. :p
It's a relief to see. Most kids with Autism have a problem with pretend play.
Re: Winter started playing pretend!
That's adorable! Isn't it so much fun to play with them? I love this age! I'm so glad you're on here, because you always tell me what to look for in Robby, lol. I totally would've just taken any pretend play he did right into stride, but now I'm so much more appreciative of his achievements! :)
Re: Winter started playing pretend!
I'm glad at least one person doesn't think I'm paranoid! lol It's pretty rare to have more than one. I say that and both my dad and grandfather had two children with it, but only one out of the four did a bit more poorly. That's my brother. He followed Alice's pattern a little more, the classic "My child turned a year and just changed!" :rolleyes: My mom goes back and forth between blaming herself for taking pregnancy safe allergy medicine and blaming the doctors for immunizing him.
He was a strange baby, though. He didn't like to be held at all, always wanted to play alone. I was told he was a perfect baby, always content. No one minded keeping him because he was never any kind of trouble. Just like Alice. She was perfect! Content, didn't startle at loud noises(because Autistic people distinguish sound differently), didn't cry for shots or any pain, wasn't a lap baby, didn't want attention, etc. Not like Winter! Oh, my goodness, she is drama. A total lap baby and cuddle bug. It's so sweet and so exhausting at the same time. lol
Alice is starting to cuddle with us more, but it's for her benefit. She has a sensory processing disorder, and she craves bear hugs, all over body scratch sessions, just being caressed, and other things like that.
I think I went off on a tangent. lol A lot of Autism symptoms are different, but if you have a question, I can tell you how the Autistic people I know act. ;)
Re: Winter started playing pretend!
what a little cutie pie!!!!!
Re: Winter started playing pretend!
Jack is playing "phone" too! He holds any toy to his head and even sometimes his hand held palm flat. He'll say "aah" (we think this is his hi) and then babble on in his jargon.
He isn't talking much though. No mama, dada. Says "ba" for bath and bottle. Wish he said more words. But he is affectionate and plays with us and his toys. And is often demanding of attention. So I think this is just a speech delay. But we'll see...
Re: Winter started playing pretend!
I didn't know that kids with autism have a hard time with that. Makes me feel better about DD. She doesn't say much yet but has been pretending for a couple months. She looooves her play kitchen and taking care of her dollies. She shares her food and drinks with them, tries to brush their nonexistent hair, it's so cute :)

This application is a continuation of copending application Ser. No. 148,873, filed May 12, 1980, and now U.S. Pat. No. 4,306,436.
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to the field of metal forming, and particularly to an improvement to the method and apparatus for forming structures, allowing a reduction in the size and costs of dies.
2. Description of Prior Art
It has been known for many years that certain metals, such as titanium, and other alloys, exhibit superplasticity. Superplasticity is the capability of a material to develop unusually high tensile elongations with a reduced tendency toward necking. This capability is exhibited by only a limited number of metals and alloys, and within limited temperature and strain rate ranges. For example, some titanium alloys, such as Ti-6Al-4V, have been observed to exhibit superplastic characteristics.
Until the advent of viable superplastic forming techniques, taking advantage of this property to form complex configurations requiring large tensile elongations was extremely difficult, or in some instances, not possible. A significant breakthrough in superplastic forming was made by Hamilton, et al., disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,934,441, Controlled Environment Superplastic Forming, incorporated into this specification herewith by reference. Simplified, the process involves placing a metal blank workpiece over a cavity in a die. The blank is heated to a temperature where it exhibits superplastic characteristics after which pressure is applied to the blank, causing it to stretch and form into the cavity. This varying pressure is reacted by the tooling and a force reactor system, typically in the form of a hydraulic press.
Another example of superplastic forming is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,340,101, Thermoforming of Metals, by Fields, Jr., et al.
Diffusion bonding refers to the metallurgical joining of surfaces of similar or dissimilar metals by applying heat and pressure for a sufficient time so as to cause co-mingling of the atoms at the joint interface. Diffusion bonding is accomplished entirely in the solid state at or above one-half the base metal melting point. Actual times, temperatures and pressures will vary from metal to metal.
The combining of superplastic forming and diffusion bonding (SPF/DB) in the making of metallic sandwich structures has been successfully accomplished and is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No 3,927,817, Method of Making Metallic Sandwich Structure, by Hamilton, et al., and is herein also incorporated by reference.
Basically, the Hamilton, et al. method for making metallic sandwich structures involves fabricating the structures from a plurality of metal blank workpieces. One or more of the blanks are coated in selected areas not to be diffusion bonded. The blanks are positioned in a stacked relationship and placed in a die assembly wherein the stack is contained at its periphery forming a seal thereabout. The stack is diffusion bonded together in the uncoated areas by the application of controlled pressure, and at least one of the blanks is superplastically formed against one or more of the die surfaces forming the sandwich structure. The core configuration is determined by the location, size and shape of the joined areas. Another example of SPF/DB is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,087,037, Method of and Tools for Producing Superplastically Formed and Diffusion Bonded Structures by Schieve et al. and British Pat. No. 1,398,929, Joining and Forming Sheet Metal Members by L. E. A. Summers, et al.
All the processes involve containing one or more workpieces between a pair of dies with the workpieces creating a gap between the pair of dies. The dies are clamped about the preform, either by direct mechanical fastening to each other as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,340,101, Thermal Forming of Metals by Fields, Jr. et al., or by placing the dies and workpiece in a press between two platens as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,927,817, Method of Making Metallic Sandwich Structures, by Hamilton, et al. Regardless of which method is used, once the die and preform are clamped in place, they are effectively restrained from further movement. This creates a problem because the forming operations are carried out at high temperatures. For example, when superplastic forming titanium alloys, such as Ti-6Al-4V, the forming temperatures are around 1600° F. Thus, both the pair of dies and preform will expand. This may create high loads in the dies, and in order to minimize these loads the dies are generally fabricated from a high temperature resistant stainless steel which is expensive and difficult to machine.
Because of the expansion of the dies during forming temperatures, and additionally, the fact that the pressures within the die required for forming typically vary throughout the forming cycle, it is difficult to insure that the structure being formed remains in tolerance, i.e., the structure may distort by virtue of inappropriate die pressure. For example, die pressure which is too high can cause flow forming of the constrained periphery of the part while die pressure which is too low, can cause the seal to be lost or slippage of the preform while forming. Thus, in the past, to be sure that the structure remained in tolerance, excessive clamping force was used, aggravating the problem.
Past forming apparatus have not addressed the problem of regulating a preselected force on the dies and maintining it as internal pressure varies during the forming cycle to insure that only the minimum force necessary to insure that the structure being formed will be within tolerance is applied to the die. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,742,537, Static Press by R. E. Merrill, discloses a press comprised of a support plate containing an inflatable hose-like member about its periphery. Coupled to the hose is a mold die adapted to mate with an upper plate. The mold die is brought into contact with the upper plate by inflating the ring. The pressure for forming is obtained by applying pressure between the lower plate and mold die with the ring acting as a seal. While the force against the upper plate can be varied by varying the gas pressure, Merrill does not disclose a method whereby the pressure can or should be regulated to a preselected value during the forming cycle. Furthermore, there is no apparatus for determining the pressure that should be applied during the forming cycle.
Another example can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,667,891, Molding Press by R. J. Geltin. Geltin discloses a press having lower and upper platens with a pair of dies mounted in between. A bolster plate is movably mounted on a support frame. Between the bolster plate and the upper platen is a plurality of parallel inflatable flat tubes. In operation, the bolster plate is brought down and locked in proximity of the upper platen and the flat tubes are inflated to apply pressure to the upper platen and subsequently to the die. Here again, while the pressure could be varied by changing the pressure inside the plurality of flat tubes, Geltin also does not disclose an apparatus to accomplish it. Another example of the use of a movable platen with an inflatable member adapted to apply pressure to the die can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,376,808, Fluid Operated Press by D. E. Beckett, et al.
It is, therefore, a primary object of this invention to provide a method and apparatus for forming parts with the application of a regulated preselected die clamping force.
It is another object of this invention to provide a method and apparatus for forming parts using smaller and less expensive dies.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a method and apparatus for more accurately producing parts by superplastic forming and superplastic forming/diffusion bonding.
The invention is an improvement to an apparatus for and method of making structures from at least one workpiece. The prior art apparatus and method comprised a pair of dies which were clamped about the periphery of the at least one workpiece creating a gap therebetween. A pair of non-inflatable platens were then used to apply a force against the pair of dies further clamping the workpiece in place. The die assembly and workpiece were then heated to forming temperatures and thereafter the at least one workpiece was formed within the pair of dies by fluid under pressure. Typically, the forming was SPF or SPF/DB.
The improvement to the apparatus comprises a regulated force adjustment means, preferably an inflatable platen mounted between one of the dies and one of the non-inflatable platens, adapted to regulate the force applied by the pair of dies and to the at least one workpiece. A sensor is mounted within the actual gap which is adapted to sense changes in the dimensions of the gap and provides a first output signal proportional thereto during the forming of the at least one workpiece. A signal generator provides a second output signal proportional to a preferred gap dimension that is produced when the force is the minimum amount necessary for forming the at least one workpiece into said structure. A control means is provided, coupled to and adapted to control the force applied by the inflatable platen, and also coupled to the sensor and signal generator adapted to use the first and second output signals such that the actual gap substantially equals the preferred gap. Preferably, the control means comprises a source of pressurized fluid, a conduit coupling the fluid to the inflatable platen, a valve means mounted in the conduit for controlling the pressure level within the inflatable platen, and a controller adapted to receive the first and second output signals and to provide an input signal to the valve means to control the pressure within the inflatable platen. In an alternate embodiment, a buffer platen is inserted between the die assembly and inflatable platen to isolate the inflatable platen from the heat.
The improvement to the method, therefore, comprises the steps of providing a force adjustment means, preferably an inflatable platen; sensing the actual gap between the pair of dies and providing a first output signal proportional thereto; providing a second output signal proportional to a preferred gap, controlling the force adjustment means; and using the first and second signals such that the actual gap substantially equals the preferred gap. Preferably, the step of controlling the inflatable platen comprises controlling the pressure level within the inflatable platen, preferably by providing a source of pressurized fluid and a conduit coupling the fluid to the inflatable platen, applying the first and second signals to the input of a controller, and applying an output signal of the controller to control a valve means in the conduit to control the pressure within the inflatable platen in response to the output of the controller.
The novel features which are believed to be characteristic of the invention, both as to its organization and its method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will be better understood from the following description in connection with the accompanying drawing in which a presently preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated by way of example. It is to be expressly understood, however, that the drawings are for purposes of illustration and description only, and are not intended as a definition of the limits of the invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates a side elevation view of a press having a die assembly with a stack of workpieces mounted therein;
FIG. 2 illustrates an enlarged view of the die assembly shown in FIG. 1 with the stack is formed into a sandwich structure;
FIG. 3 illustrates a control system for maintaining a constant gap between the die halfs during forming;
FIG. 4 illustrates a press wherein a buffer platen is provided between the die assembly and inflatable platen.
Illustrated in FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of a press, generally indicated by numeral 10. The press 10 consists of a non-inflatable lower platen 12 and upper support member 13. Acme (anti-backlash) screws 14 are rotatably mounted at their ends to both lower platen 12 and to member 13. An upper movable platen 15 is threadably mounted on the acme screws 14. Mounted between the upper and lower platens 15 and 12, respectively, is a die assembly 16, which comprises lower die half 17 and upper die half 18. Mounted between the die halfs 17 and 18 is a stack 20 creating a gap 30 therebetween. Stack 20 is comprised of metal sheet workpieces 22, 24, and 26. Note that in the SPF/DB process, at least two workpieces are required and there could be more than three. Therefore, the selection of a stack composed of three workpieces is only for purposes of illustration. An inflatable platen 34 is mounted between the lower die half 17 and lower platen 12.
SPF/DB, as previously mentioned, is thoroughly discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,927,817, Method of Making Metallic Sandwich Structures, by Hamilton, et al., and in other patents, and thus need only be briefly discussed here. Illustrated in FIG. 2 is the stack 20 formed into a sandwich structure 20a within the die assembly 16, while illustrated in FIG. 3 is an apparatus for controlling the clamping force applied to the die assembly 16. Still referring to FIG. 1, and additionally to FIGS. 2 and 3, it can be seen that one or more of the workpieces 22, 24, and 26, are coated with a stopoff material (not shown) in selected areas not to be diffusion bonded. The workpieces 22, 24, and 26, are positioned into the stack 20. An inflation tube 40 is coupled to the stack 20 and connects to one or more of the stopoff paths. The various coated areas are coupled together by small apertures 42.
The platen 34 is coupled to a source of pressurized fluid, either liquid or gas, typically in the form of a pressurized accumulator 50, by means of conduit 51. A valve 52 mounted in the conduit 51 is used to control fluid flow. A gap sensor 53 is mounted in the gap 30 between the die halfs 17 and 18 and provides a first output signal proportional to the gap. The gap sensor 53 can be in the form of a proximity gauge, linear voltage displacement transducer (LVDT) extensometer or any other state of the art gap measuring device. The output signal from the gap sensor 53 is coupled to the input of a controller 60. A reference signal generator 62 is provided which generates a second output signal, coupled to the controller 60, proportional to a preferred gap to be maintained between the die halfs 17 ad 18 during formimg (to be subsequently discussed in detail). The controller 60, using the first and second output signals, provides a third output signal to a regulator control valve 66 mounted in the conduit 51 for control of fluid pressure within the platen 34.
Thus, in operation, the inflatable platen 34 is at least partially inflated and the die assembly 16, with the stack 20 therein, is placed on top of the inflatable platen 34. The platen 15 is brought down until it contacts the upper die half 18 with preselected force so as to create a seal between the upper and lower dies 18 and 17, respectively, and the stack 20. At this point, the gap 30 is measured and is used as the preferred gap, and the signal generator 62 is set to provide a second output signal proportional thereto. Heat is applied to the die assembly 16, typically by heating elements (not shown) within the die halfs 17 and 18. Pressurized fluid is applied to the cavity 70 of the upper die half 18 via ports 72 and 72'. The pressure and clamping force is maintained on the preform (stack 20) until the uncoated areas are diffusion bonded together. Thereafter, the pressure in the cavity 70 is reduced to ambient and the pressurized fluid is applied to the interior of the stack 20 via tube 40. The gas travels along the stopoff paths through the apertures 42 causing the blanks 24 and 26 to superplastically expand into the cavity 60. During this step, a vacuum may be drawn through ports 72 and 72' to aid in the expansion process.
If during the forming of the stack 20, the gap 30 (the actual gap) becomes greater than the preferred gap, the controller 60 sends the third output signal to regulator control valve 66 causing it to increase gas pressure within the inflatable platen 34 causing the die halfs 17 and 18 to move toward each other. When the gap 30 is again substantially equal to the preferred gap, the controller 60 sends a third output signal to the valve 66 to maintain a constant pressure within the platen 34. Should the gap 30 become too small, the controller will cause valve 66 to reduce the pressure within the platen 34 by dumping fluid to ambient via tube 74.
Thus, with this feedback control circuit, and, the corresponding applied force, the gap during the SPF/DB process is held constant, or nearly so. Thus, the load on the die assembly 16 and stack 20 (by assembly 16) is kept to that minimum level (or range) required to accurately form the part. After the part is formed, valve 52 is turned to the off position, and valve 76, coupled to conduit 51 by conduit 77, is opened, reducing the pressure within the inflatable platen to ambient. Thereafter, the temperature is returned to ambient, the upper platen 15 is raised and the completed structure is removed from die half 17.
It must be noted that while the discussion to this point has been concerned with SPF/DB, the procedure is applicable to superplastic forming, for example, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,934,441, Controlled Environment Superplastic Forming by Hamilton, et al.
Illustrated in FIG. 4 is a second embodiment wherein a buffer platen 78 is placed beween the die assembly 16 and inflatable platen 34. The buffer platen 78 serves to isolate the inflatable platen 34 from the heat. It is especially important if an incompressible fluid is used as the pressurizing fluid.
Having thus described the invention, it is obvious that numerous modifications and deparatures may be made by those skilled in the art; thus, the invention is to be construed as being limited only by the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Because the Internet enables us to devour content quickly and efficiently, we consume content in a completely different way than years past.
We search, gather, research some more, and then really dive in.
The consumer does this too, going back two to three times before making a decision.
This is the basic premise of stage-based marketing.
We need to understand the stage of our prospects in order to be relevant, and in order to move them to that next stage. In addition,
77% of those B2B buyers want content tailored to the stage they're in. Therefore, if you serve up content that's relevant to their needs, you'll have a higher success rate.
Before we begin, we must understand the key buyer stages. These include:
Stage 1: Solve a Problem
The first stage includes researching information. Buyers are looking to solve a business problem, such as doing their job better. A Stage 1, offer a top-of-funnel ebook or blog post that's not about your product. It's content that helps them do their job better, for example.
Stage 2: Get Buy In
Now that you've got their attention, it's time to start getting the prospect on board with your world. For instance, in my case, it may not be selling Pardot, but it's selling marketing automation in general. This helps the prospect get buy-in from the rest of their team. Once their team has buy-in, the project gets legs, and the prospect can move it forward. Until that internal champion can get that project noticed, nothing is going to happen.
Content in this stage may be specific to your industry or field. It still solves business challenges, such as implementing marketing automation, or marketing automation best practices, but product is not at the forefront.
Stage 3: Vendor Selection
Now it's time to sell your product. The prospect is in the decision-making stage and is ready to buy. Content in this stage is product based. Offer case studies, product documentation, FAQs are more.
Think about the content that fits in each of these stages. My goal is to move them to the next stage.
Stage-Specific Emails
Stage-based marketing with nurturing emails takes somebody from Stage 1 to Stage 2, or from Stage 2 to Stage 3.
A nurturing program is highly specific, such as, John is in Stage 2 right now so I'm going to send John an email that's going to let him choose his own adventure. We'll:
- Help John learn more about Stage 2
- Help John move to Stage 3
That allows John to move himself ahead. I'm not sending John an email that pushes him to Stage 3, instead, it's an option, and he can choose his own path. No matter what, the subject line is hyper-targeted, and the call to action and copy are targeted as well.

Fila USA taps Adidas executive to halt skid
Published June 8, 1998
Caught in a financial free fall that has sent its stock plummeting from $104 a share to $18 a share, Fila USA is in the midst of an extensive retooling effort that begs the question: Can the company reverse its dramatic slide?
The Italian athletic footwear and apparel company, which last year saw its U.S. sales fall to $682 million, compared to $750 million in 1996, will lay off about 20 percent of its 950 U.S. workers by the end of the year and close operations in several cities.
Last Tuesday, the company named Jon Epstein as chief executive officer of Fila USA, which is based in Sparks, Md. Epstein, who replaces Robert Liewald, spent two decades at Adidas America, the only shoe company that is holding its own in a chaotic domestic athletic-shoe market.
Fila is also reconfiguring its product line.
Though the company will maintain a presence in basketball by virtue of its deals with NBA stars Grant Hill, Jerry Stackhouse and Chris Webber, Fila is now focusing on the running and soccer categories to draw in new, younger customers.
How, in a span of just 18 months, did Fila see a such a dramatic decline in business?
"The company lost its direction and it floundered," Epstein said. "There was too much product and too many styles, all without much of a message."
Fila is not the only shoe company to have problems in a changing athletic-shoe market as consumer tastes shift toward brown shoes and boots. Reebok and Nike also have seen their earnings erode.
Epstein promises that the Fila USA of the future will be a more streamlined operation.
"My focus is to make [Fila USA] smaller, more efficient," he said.
However, things may get worse for Fila USA before getting better.
According to Fila's chairman, Enrico Frachey, the U.S. market will account for one-third of the company's 1998 worldwide sales. In 1996, U.S. sales accounted for almost 60 percent of Fila's nearly $2 billion in overall revenue.
"Unfortunately, the market depression, together with the effect of the very significant close-outs operated by some competitors, will certainly not facilitate a rapid recovery," Frachey said.
Like other shoe companies, Fila USA must adapt to American consumers who are turning away in droves from high-priced basketball shoes endorsed by legions of NBA stars.
Said Fila USA Vice President Howe Burch: "Because the whole industry has grown so dramatically, there has been a proliferation of products and athletic endorsers....At some point, consumers have gotten tired of it all. We're in a tough period now, but we are taking corrective measures. Our overriding theme is that we will consolidate and focus on our core categories that will include running, soccer, and basketball."

"As a lad he became expert as an amateur watchmaker. Disliking farm work because, "considering the results, there was too much work on the place," he became an apprentice mechanic in Detroit, and repaired watches in a jewelry shop at night. He flirted with the idea of entering the watch manufacturing business on a large scale, "but I did not because I figured out that watches were not universal necessities." His apprenticeship over, he served with the local representative of the Westinghouse Company, setting up and repairing their road engines."
– Excerpt From Automotive Giants of America (iBooks)
Given the constant rumormongering about the iWatch, reading this (from a book written in 1926) amused me.

Laurie and I were perusing Pinterest and came across the cutest sheep cupcakes. We were trying to think of an occasion where we could make them, and we finally decided to add them to our Easter menu. (I am not exactly sure how sheep relate to Easter, but thankfully no one asked any questions.) All the family agreed that the sheep were cute but they were not great as a dessert. Let me preface this next statement by saying that we are a marshmallow family. We are drawn to any recipe that has marshmallows, but there were just too many marshmallows per cupcake. Most of the family picked off the marshmallows before eating the cupcake, except for my daughter who ate the marshmallows and left the cupcake. To sum up … visually very pretty but not the best dessert.
How to Make Sheep Cupcakes
- Chocolate cupcakes with black cupcake liners
- Buttercream Frosting
- Mini Marshmallows
- Candy Eyeballs
- Twizzlers
- Tootsie Pop Midgets
First you will need to make cupcakes. We used chocolate thinking it would be a good contrast to the buttercream frosting and all the marshmallows. Then make up a batch of Nancy's Famous Buttercream Frosting.
Next, you need to make the sheep's heads. In the Land O' Lakes inspiration pin they used a large black gumdrop for the head. We couldn't find any of those. After looking at a lot of candy for another option, we eventually settled on the idea of using Tootsie Roll Midgets. They were brown, about the right size and could be flattened and molded into something "like" the shape of a sheep's head. We found some Wilton Candy Eyeballs for the eyes. We cut a tiny piece of Black Twizzlers for the ears and used a knife to make the nostrils.
The next step was to add a tall mound of frosting to the cupcake. This took some trial and error to get right but we eventually figured out the right amount of frosting, which is pictured above.
Next, afix the Sheep's head to the frosting.
Then add the marshmallows. We found that it worked best to add the marshmallows around the face first, then around the base of the cupcake and then lastly fill in the rest of the body. As a final touch, add another small piece of black Twizzler for the tail.
And that is how you make Sheep Cupcakes. There are a lot of steps but I wouldn't call this a difficult decorating project. If we ever try this again, we would cut the marshmallows in half length-wise to cut down on the marshmallow-iness of the cupcake.

Firefighters extinguished a first-alarm fire at a two-story apartment complex and garage, Saturday.
The fire was reported around 6:45 p.m. on Niantic Court, near Mission Boulevard. It was put out about 15 minutes later, San Diego fire officials said. Only the first floor of the complex was involved in the fire.
Four fire engines, two fire trucks, two battalion chiefs and an ambulance were sent to the complex. San Diego Gas & Electric was also called.
About $100,000 in property damage was done and about $100,000 worth of inside contents were destroyed. No one was displaced and there were no reported injuries, officials said. Cause of the fire is still being investigated.

All those flowers you've been throwing away could be turned into potpourri in just 3 easy steps, Dry, Fragrance, and Package.
1- Collect any of your favorite flowers, roses, tulips, hydrangeas, and keep them in a warm dry area to dry. Don't try to speed it up by putting them in the sun, as that will dry the petals and leaves, and they will crumble, hang them upside down from a string. If you'd rather dry your flowers on a tray, turn them over every other day for evenly dried petals.
2- Use oils such as peppermint, mint, lavender, rosemary, vanilla, coconut, etc. to fragrance the petals. After you have chosen your oil, take the dry petals and leaves and put them in a seal tight jar. Add drops of your oils into the mixture of petals and let it rest for a night or two. The amount of oil depends on the amount of petals and the purity of the oil.
3- Now it's time to package the potpourri into sachets or bowls and place them over your house, they even make as a cute housewarming present. Use material that breathes easily or all the fragrance will be trapped inside.
Don't be afraid to mix it up, add dried lemon or orange peel, even lemon tree leaves, cinnamon sticks or cloves to the mix and put them through the same oiling process. If you ever feel like the potpourri has lost its zesty fragrance you can always put them back in that seal tight jar and add more or different oils.
So wondering which bouquet to purchase now? This is our pick, one of our top selling arrangements.

Neste Auto Glass fundraising for employee with brain cancer
March 19, 2017
Steamboat Springs — Longtime Steamboat Springs resident Jesse James "Buddy" Romero was hit with troubling news in October after suffering a seizure in his home.
Following a CAT scan and an MRI, Romero learned he had a grade 2 astrocytoma brain tumor and stage 2 brain cancer.
The tumor was removed, but Romero's battle to regain his health was only beginning.
"I did six weeks straight of radiation and chemotherapy," said Romero, who has lived in Steamboat most of his life.
As the sole provider for his wife and two young children, including a 9-year old son with muscular dystrophy and an 8-year-old daughter, Romero was forced to take off work following his diagnosis, leading his employer and coworkers at Neste Auto Glass to spring into action.
Company owner Jeff Sexton helped get Romero a reliable car to travel to appointments in Denver, and coworkers started a GoFundMe page to help the family keep up with rent and everyday living expenses.

And, in anticipation of Romero's slow return to work in the future, staff at Neste Auto Glass have also transformed part of their building into "Buddy's Hobby Hut," a remote-controlled car, truck and drone store they envision Romero running.
"We put in shelving and fixtures and got some cars, trucks and drones," Sexton said. "We'll sell as well as fix them."
Romero said he is thankful his coworkers, who include his brother, would do so much for him and his family.
"It means a lot to me that they would make something like a hobby hut for me to be able to keep me around while I'm not able to work," Romero said. "I'm so honored."
Romero starts a new round of chemotherapy Monday, which is expected to continue the next 12 months.
Sexton said Romero and his brother have worked for Neste Auto Glass more than 15 years, adding it made sense to help Romero and his family in any way possible.
"Buddy has been here for 15 years, and you just get totally attached," Sexton said. "He's had a lot of bad luck lately."
Buddy's Hobby Hut is located at Neste Auto Glass, 3162 Elk River Road.
A GoFundMe page for Romero and his family can be found by searching the site for "Funds for a father of two" or typing gofundme.com/jesse-romeros-medical-funds.

I also try to be prepared to celebrate the many blessings of adolescent life, taking every bit of good news as seriously as does the student who delivers it. To adults, a budding teenage romance or a hard-fought victory on the playing field may not seem earth-shaking, but these things can be the highs on the roller-coaster ride of adolescence. Being prepared to rejoice with those who rejoice and to weep with those who weep has borne fruit for me in my relationships with students.

an example of a reversible chemical change
melting of ice
This conversation is already closed by Expert
An example of a reversible chemical change is thermal decomposition of salts such as hydrates copper-sulphate results in the dehydration of the salt.
CuSO 4 .5H 2 O ———–> CuSO 4 (s) + 5H 2 O (g)
In this reaction, colour changes from blue to white. Water is removed from the copper sulphate. This dehydration reaction can be reversed by slowly adding water back to the powder. This reaction is exothermic and the blue colour of the powder is retained.
CuSO 4 (s) + 5H 2 O ————> CuSO 4 .5H 2
example for reversible change is folding of paper.

Oral Health 2020: A Vision for Integrated Care is the result of collective thinking about inspiring, motivating, and educating healthcare providers to take charge in shaping the future of healthcare delivery to improve oral health outcomes. It envisions a new, responsive model that enhances the practice of dentistry and medicine by promoting integration of oral health into primary health care.
Oral Health 2020: A Vision for Integrated Care, will:
- Showcase existing healthcare delivery models that take steps toward integration of oral health care with primary care
- Highlight health plans that understand the value of oral health integration to improve health outcomes their efforts to align healthcare financing with scientific evidence
- Explore the role of dental and medical education in modeling the integration of oral health care into primary care.
- Provide the venue for healthcare providers to reflect on the knowledge gained and provide recommendations to further knowledge and evidence to strengthen local, national, and global efforts to integrate oral health into primary care
We believe that a new, responsive, and fair model must result in a true integration of oral health into primary health care. A model that will effectively address the dysfunctions of the existing healthcare systems, which today result in the system's inability to adequately provide access, ensure quality, and restrain costs. We envision a more adequate healthcare delivery system. A timely, efficient, effective, and patient-centered system; one that provides equal access for all.

- Share new research findings related to oral connection to the rest of the body, and the effectiveness of integrated care.
- Present new approaches to oral health care delivery.
- Engage healthcare providers in the formulation of pubic and institutional policy recommendations.
- Inspire, motivate, and educate healthcare providers to take charge in shaping the future of healthcare delivery to improve oral health outcomes.

a VirtualTourist member from Falun
We are 3 Swedish guys, who will arrive to Bergamo in Italy 2 December.
We are planning to get from there to Chamonix 3 December, but are not really sure about how. We have seen that it is possible to take the train in the early morning. Does anyone know how approximately much this would cost? (10euro or 100 euro?) Are there buses or other ways to get to Chamonix? We are students so we want to keep the cost down! Please help us!
Best regards.
I think that Bergamo is close to Milan. If you can figure out how to get to Milan, I am sure you can take trains from there. There is one that goes via Milan to Chambery to Annecy to Sallanches, and from Sallanches I know you can get to Chamonix on the train (the website won't show the whole trip if it takes more than 3 train changes). The Milan-Sallanches fare on WWW.SNCF.FR was showing as €67 so if you add on the leg to Chamonix, and if you find a train from Bergamo to Milan that cost will go up. Also be warned that the trip will be over 8 hours to get to Chamonix that way. I hope you are taking a long break in Chamonix if you have to spend so much time to get there (you can drive from Milan to Chamonix in about 4 hours!!). It might be worth looking into car hire and compare that to the train fare.
Also if you can get to Milano Porta Garibaldi, there are SAVDA buses which go to Courmayeur in about 3.5 hours each day. Courmayeur is the other side of the tunnel from Chamonix. You can then find SAVDA buses to go to Chamonix from Courmayeur (or Aosta which is on the way) as well (another 1/2 hour ride). The SAVDA site has no prices, but it will save you about 4 or 5 hours on your trip... so I would give them a call. http://www.savda.com/orari_tariffe.htm .
You can find information on getting from the Bergamo airport to other places like Milan center on the airport website: http://www.orioaeroporto.it/
I would go for the bus option, if you can work out exactly where you need to go to catch the SAVDA bus.

ABUJA, NOVEMBER 15, 2016 – Vice President Yemi Osinbajo's meeting with the Senate President Bukola Saraki, House of Representatives Speaker Yakubu Dogara and the five governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC) ended in deadlock yesterday.
The agenda of the meeting, which lasted over two hours at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, our sources said, included the alleged lopsided appointments, the Federal Government's $30 billion loan request, among other issues.
Indications that no decision was reached emerged when none of the five governors: Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), Rochas Okorocha (Imo), Abdulaziz Yari (Zamfara), Abubakar Sani Bello (Niger) and Jubrila Bindo (Adamawa), was ready to comment on the outcome of the meeting.
They clustered briefly outside the lobby leading to the office of the vice president and were openly arguing and glossing over a document. They left one after another.
Saraki, pestered by newsmen, said the meeting was convened to come up with ideas that would make the country better.
His words: "I am sure the vice president will issue a statement. But it is nothing of great alarm. It is all for good governance, inclusion and collaboration with all arms of government. The state governors were here, National Assembly executives. We just came up with ideas on how to make things work even better, that is all."

"It's still early days for public cloud performance management and monitoring tools because most decision-makers at large and midsize enterprises have not made up their minds about the cloud strategy they want to use. However, the upside potential remains high for performance management solutions and we are seeing monitoring vendors such as New Relic bubble above the rest. We also found that public cloud service providers were using performance management tools to differentiate their offerings on the basis of offering a better quality of service."

"Software defined storage and hyper-converged infrastructure are coming of age," said Tim Stammers, senior analyst at 451 Research. "Midmarket companies face mounting challenges storing and managing ever-growing volumes of data. Clearly there is a demand for IT infrastructure that is simpler to manage, and can scale out as data grows. Hyper-converged systems and software-defined storage are strong candidates to meet these needs."

We hear over and over that if you don't capture your students in the first few minutes, then the rest of the class is history. Its important to get your students interested, engaged, and ready to learn right off the bat. But it can be really challenging to bring new, fresh, and exciting ideas to every lesson, every class.
I read this incredible book over the summer called Teach Like a Pirate by Dave Burgess; a great read for both practicing and pre-service teachers. The book had one part completely dedicated to interest approaches and hooks alone!
Right after reading the interest approach section, I posted my thoughts in a blog post to NAAE Communities of Practice. Check it out!
Teach Like a Pirate: All About the Hook!
I know at this point I may sound like a broken record because I think everyone is saying the same thing, but Teach Like a Pirate rocks my socks!! I read the most of the second section of the book while we were traveling from place to place in Korea and I had many epiphanies on that charter bus. The second section was all about hooks for your lessons. I think one of the biggest reasons that this section was so appealing to me was because I have always had an interest in Gardner's Multiple Intelligences ever since hearing about them in high school. I am a very visual learner so it is fascinating to think about the different ways that people learn. But because I learn best one way, doesn't mean my students will. I will have to be really intentional about incorporating many different ways of learning into my lessons and as I was reading through the section section, it was easy to see all of the different modalities of learning that we were being addressed, beginning with the hook of the lesson. Burgess just provided example after example after example of different ways to begin your lessons and I cannot wait to try them out and see what works for me in my classroom!
As I read through the book, I took notes one some of my favorite examples of hooks for lessons and wrote down ways to potentially use these in my ag classes someday, maybe even as soon as student teaching.
- The Techno Whiz Hook- Burgess talks in this section about the need to embrace technology in the classroom because it is not going to go away. Sometimes technology can be a distraction in the classroom but instead of fighting it, let's reel it in and use it to our advantage. One of the questions posed in the section is "How can I leverage the power of social media to empower my students to engage in their education beyond the standard school day?" Then I got to thinking, each day we will have an essential question on the board at the beginning of class, but why not tweet it out to the students before class so students can come in with their minds already thinking about the answer, allowing us to maximize our time and jump right into to the discussion.
- The Board Message Hook- So I kind of took this idea and went another direction with it, but the original concept is still there. Burgess suggests using QR codes, the fun little squares you can scan with your smart phone, to display the essential question or board messages. I love the QR code idea and actually hope to use this in my Small Gas Engines class at Greenwood in the Spring. I will be teaching, or rather my students will be teaching each other, a unit on equipment safety. I think it would be neat for small groups to make a 30 second video about that particular piece of equipment and link it to a QR code. I will display the QR codes around the shop so that way students can access the safety videos any time they want. Isn't technology handy?
These were just two of the many ideas that the second section of the book sparked for me. I look forward to not only finishing the book, but beginning to plan ways to implement what I have learned right into my lessons.

It revived memories of the last time this round-robin event was contested at Rosses Point in 1991 when a Padraig Harrington-inspired Ireland lifted the Raymond Trophy and clinched the Triple Crown.
This time Ireland took full advantage of a below-strength England, missing Stiggy Hodgson and Darren Wright for disciplinary reasons, and Open hero Tom Lewis, who declined to compete.
However, take nothing away from Ireland, who finished with the wooden spoon at Ashburnham last year, but battled every inch of the way yesterday for a dramatic 8-7 win.
The Ireland-England clash was close throughout, as the host nation sneaked the foursomes 3-2, with two of the matches halved.
Paul Cutler, the Portstewart star who currently holds both the Irish Close and West of Ireland titles, was outstanding. He partnered Kevin Phelan to victory in the foursomes and then beat in-form Steven Brown in the top singles.
Cutler established an early advantage, but Brown battled back to all-square by the 14th. However, then Cutler won two of the next three holes for a notable triumph.
Alan Dunbar was well beaten by Andy Sullivan and both Phelan and Aaron Kearney were also defeated to leave the tie in the balance. Gary McDermott, making his debut at his home club, had a battle royal with Craig Hinton, with the Sligo player putting his nose in front a to win 2&1.
Ballymena teenager Dermot McElroy played out of his skin against Ben Stow and a massive roar went up when he knocked in an eight-foot putt on the last for victory.
With Ireland leading 7-6 in the clubhouse, the bottom two games, both level in the closing stages, were crucial.
Paul Dunne halved with Ben Taylor, ensuring that the hosts could not lose, leaving new cap Niall Gorey to earn the final half with David Coupland to give Ireland victory.
Scotland beat Wales 9-6 in the other opening-day fixture.

Cummings eases
into match play
Dubliner Keagan Cummings produced one of the best rounds of the day over the tough Burnham and Berrow links in Somerset to stroll into the match-play stages of the British Boys Amateur Championship.
The 18-year-old fired a 72 to add to his 74 at Enmore Park the previous day. That gave him a 36-hole aggregate of 146, four strokes inside the qualifying mark.
West Waterford's Gary Hurley also made it through on 146 after a second successive 73. Alex Gleeson from Castle crashed out after an 81. Conor Glynn's 160 total was 10 strokes outside qualification, while David Manifold and Jamie Richardson were among other Irish boys to miss out.
