The website said cost per foot is .45 per foot but you can charge $3.00 to $5.00 a foot. Can you really charge $5 a foot? I dont see people paying that around here.

Unanswered: FoxPro cursor problem
I am troubleshooting a FoxPro app that I did not write. I will use generalized filenames for simplicity's sake. The code in filename "1.prg" stores data in a cursor, then moves on to filename "2.prg", then attempts to recall the previously stored data from the cursor and insert it into a FoxPro Report.
From my understanding, cursors stay active until the program terminates, right? I am trying to iterate thru that cursor and print all the values onto a FoxPro Report, however it isn't putting any of the data onto the Report. Any ideas on what I should examine to find out why its not working as planned?

How do you get from program 1 to program 2?
Are the variables public?

stores data in a cursor
Cursors are memory 'containers' for data and work like a data table
But memory objects are subject to program 'scope' and are only available to those functions, programs, etc. which have been called by the part of the application which creates them - unless they are declared PUBLIC or have been added as an Object.
then moves on to filename "2.prg"
Whether or not the memory object (the cursor) is available to 2.prg is dependent on how it is called.
If some other 'main' program called 1.prg which then terminated and returned to 'main'
and then 'main' called 2.prg, the memory objects created in 1.prg would NOT be available to 2.prg
But if 1.prg directly called 2.prg, then the memory objects Should be available.
But other things could also be involved such as:
* Was the command USE issued on the cursor?
Example: SELECT ThisCursor
That would CLOSE the cursor and release it from memory
* Or was the CLOSE DATABASE ALL command issued?
Again causing the cursor to CLOSE and release it from memory
* Or was the RELEASE command issued in such as way that it would Release the memory objects?
These are all things to take into consideration.
Good Luck,

Oman: Introduction
About Oman
With Yemen and Saudi effectively off-limits to casual tourism, anyone seeking a taste of 'Old Arabia' these days makes a beeline for the Sultanate of Oman, a modern Gulf state with a wonderfully antique underbelly. Until the current ruler, Sultan Qaboos, took over in the 1970s, this ranked among the most secretive and closed of countries. But four decades of carefully managed development, financed by oil and gas exports, have brought about a spectacular transformation, ensuring visitors can sample Oman's special atmosphere in great comfort, style and security.
The capital, Muscat, serves as most people's gateway, and it's a perfect primer for any Arabian adventure. Stroll down the city's exotic seafront promenade, whose mighty, azure-tiled mosque and Sultan's Palace gaze across a bay enfolded by rugged desert mountains. Wooden dhows laze off-shore, surveyed by crumbling sandstone fortresses, and the souk is crammed to bursting point with traditional merchandise, from elaborately decorated silver khanjar daggers to turbans.
Possible destinations further afield include the coastal city of Sur, reached via a dramatic drive through the Hajar Mountains, or via a sinuous shoreline road punctuated by sparkling white beaches, palm-lined ravines and vertiginous cliffs that plummet to a sea the colour of lapis.
Oman's second city, Nizwa, is regarded as the country's cultural heart – a breathtakingly green oasis of palm trees and old-world architecture, off-set by a superb mountain backdrop. Travellers tend to pause here en route to the deep desert region of Dhofar further south – the legendary Empty Quarter explored by Thesinger in the 1940s, and where, more recently, Ranulph Fiennes discovered the remains of the mythic 'Frankincense City', Ubar, buried for centuries under a pall of soft sand.
Whether you're looking for a couple of day's relaxing on the beach between flights, or an authentic taste of the Arabian sands, Oman is hard to beat.
Essential Information
Capital: City of Muscat
Area: 309,500 square kilometres (a quarter larger than the UK)
Population: 2,509,000 (4% of the UK)
Religions: Majority Ibadi Muslim (75%), Sunni and Shia Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists and Sikhs (25%)
Languages: Arabic is the official language of Oman, with English widely spoken and German known in tourist locations (namely hotels)
Time: +4 hours (GMT)
When to Go
The best time to travel to Oman is from November to mid-March, when the average temperature is around 25 degrees. It is best to avoid southern Oman during its rainy season of mid-June to late August. Naturally, the summer months can be incredibly hot. For those wanting to glimpse the endangered green turtle, it is possible to see them both laying and hatching eggs from September to November.
Getting there
Oman Air flies direct to Muscat from London Gatwick, which takes 8 hours. British Airways fly from London Heathrow, with a stopover en route. Gulf Air via Manama, Emirates via Dubai, Qatar via Doha. Indirect flights take approximately 10 hours.
Private Transfers and Sightseeing
All our itineraries in Oman are based on private cars, vans or 4x4s, with an experienced driver.
Air Travel
While domestic flight options are very limited, Oman air connects Muscat with Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Kuwait and many other destinations in the Middle East. Plans are in place to build more domestic airports.
Boat Travel
Boat travel is an option when travelling from the mainland to surrounding islands, as well as when participating in the many water sports and sea excursions on offer.
Road Travel
Driving in Oman requires a four-wheel drive, due to varied road conditions.

Client Comment
My daughter and I have just returned from a ten day visit to Oman. We were on a private tour, with an interesting and varied itinerary, organised by TransIndus in London and Eihab Travel in Muscat. With excellent drivers and guides and an eclectic mix of hotels, each day was a wonderful surprise and adventure. Oman is a staggeringly beautiful country - high mountains, deep ravines, wadies, turquoise sea and white sand beaches, golden sand dunes and some exquisite architecture. The colours are breathtaking. The people are lovely - friendly, dignified and hospitable. We had a truly memorable visit. Our thanks to all those people who made it possible.Mr Dalley, Tailor-made Oman read more comments

Magnetic Mason Jars Storage Shelf Tutorial
You just can't throw a stone in blog-land without hitting a mason jar post these days. Apparently we crafty types just can't get enough of them. Here at Mom Spark alone I've done several mason jar crafts including dyeing them with Mod Podge and food coloring and making them into solar yard luminaries.
But sometimes you need to storage. And in this house the room that needs it the most is my bathroom. I have a normal sized vanity for a home my size but it's still lacks a bit of counter-space, what with that pesky sink in there and all. Anything I can put inside of the vanity I do but there are somethings I use so often that I get super irritated when I have to dig them out of the hot mess that space always turns into day after day.
Realizing that it would be crazy helpful to add a shelf it seemed silly to waste all of the potential space underneath the shelf. and I know that this project is hardly revolutionary because I've seen this sort of thing on Pinterest a few times, but I don't think they used magnets. And magnets are pretty cool.
For this project you will need:
Wood shelf & paint/stain/etc.
Ring rare earth magnets
Mason jars with lids and rings
Strong glue
Steel washers
Here is my shelf. It's about 24 inches wide (on the top side) and was purchased for $6 at Hobby Lobby. with a 40% off coupon I liked this particular shelf because of the crown moulding-esque shape.
Now, this is how well things sometimes go in craft blogging. I busted out my gloves and stained this puppy with Minwax gunstock knowing good and well that it would turn kind of red on pine rather than oak. I was cool with that. But the front had this crazy wavy thing happening with the stain. Unsure of what I did wrong I decided to go over it with a darker color to correct…
…and I busted out my go to Rusotleum Kona. And look at that nonsense. Se those crazy waves in the stain. Turns out it's actually turned into the wood. When I rubbed my hand over it those areas were actually raised up. And since no amount of staining was going to fix this problem, I decided to just paint the sucker white. Of course it would still be noticeable but not nearly as bad as that up there.
This little thing may look like a cheap little washer but it isn't. It's a rare earth magnet in a ring shape (basically with the hole in the middle). This little bitty magnet is crazy strong and it's going to keep our jars up in place!
Place your jars lid side down and determine where they need to be placed to look good and fit properly. Mark the spots and place your rare earth magnet in one of those areas.
Secure the magnet with a screw (yes things will try to stick as the drill has metal in it) but it's nothing that can't be done fairly easily. Continue adding your magnets across the length.
Grab those mason jars and remove the seal from the ring. The seal is the metal part that will say Ball Mason on it or whatever and have an orange-y side. That orange side is actually wax and when used when heated in canning seals the jar so the food inside is preserved for a long time.
At any rate, you're going put a healthy amount of glue inside of the ring.
Place your seal inside with the waxy side down.
Place your washer inside of the lid and glue or tape down. These are taped because they were an afterthought. A really darn awesome afterthought, though.
Allow your lids to fully dry according to your glue package directions before continuing. (I gave mine 24 hours).
Fill your jars with the good stuff you need to keep handy and smack that sucker up against the magnet. You might be surprised at just how much pull that itty bitty thing has on your jar.
Hang it up wherever you please and use the top side for more storage or for decoration. I wound up using it for decoration instead!
But inside I have immediate access to my dental floss, makeup removers, hair clips and cotton swabs.
I am already mad about this thing. It makes life so much simpler! I'm not really happy with the hangers on the back as it makes the shelf sit at an angle rather than flush with the wall, but that's something a trip to the hardware store will easily rectify.
Until then I've got some popping going on in my morning routine (the lids pop like when you're canning something when you pull it off of the magnet 🙂 and I'm so happy with it. ..even if it isn't gunstock or kona colored!

SFO's New Yoga Room
Posted by Darya Mead
I don't know about you, but unless you have a streamlined, super business traveler routine for trip preparation and packing, (a la George Clooney in the film Up in the Air) you often wind up at the airport with slight back spasms.
I always travel with my yoga mat and often head to the back of the plane in-flight to stretch out and realign. Now you can actually use all that post check-in extra time at the San Francisco Airport to center yourself and work out the travel kinks. The City by the Bay has opened a yoga room in terminal two. If you don't carry your own mat, mats are provided in the 150-square-foot room.
So, rather than kicking back with a cocktail why not salute the sun or invert a bit before your long or short haul flight? Let's hope it's a trend that catches on.

As I once again dig through bins of snow gear to prepare for a trek to the Sierras, I think about growing up on the East Coast. My mom hails from Upstate New York. That fact, combined with the brutal winters and my family's enthusiasm for all things ski, skate and sled related, has shaped my winter wanderlust.
We are headed to a house, inaccessible by road in winter. Set on 100 acres of land, the generosity of the owners allows us to live out my alpine fantasies. We snowshoe or ski one mile into the house, carrying backpacks and pulling a sled full of all our gear, food and an occasional small child. Continue reading »

Snowmelt Beauty and Hazards
Posted by Darya Mead
We drove through Yosemite a few weekends ago. It was packed with summer travelers and waterfall gawkers. The major falls are glorious, and fuller than they have been in years. New, smaller falls have even appeared much to the delight of park goers.
As we drove through the park, out past Mono Lake, we were stunned by the high water levels and snowy peaks in early July. We laughed, thinking that we could even cross-country ski in some spots above 7000 feet.
Record snowfalls this winter and heavy unseasonable rain in summer have made conditions epic for nature lovers but also hazardous.

Sea Ranch Serenity
Posted by Darya Mead
The first time a friend suggested a trip to Sea Ranch, I had visions of seahorse cowboys and underwater rodeos. I soon discovered it to be anything but a SpongeBob SquarePants circus. It proved to be one of the most restful places I've ever been.
100 miles north of San Francisco, the drive takes a good three hours if you take time to gawk at the Oscar winning coastline. We often stop in Bodega Bay for a fish and chips or clam chowder lunch to break up the drive. This time, my seven-year-old discovered he gets carsick, and if you are prone to motion sickness this drive will surely bring it on.
Sea Ranch was a pioneering eco-community begun in the late '60s and early '70s. The connection between the landscape and the architecture is beautiful and certainly contributes to the serenity of the place. I dislike gated communities or housing developments in general, but this place really has captured the benefits of a uniform style with strong community ethos. The sometimes simple, sometimes elaborate wood-frame structures were inspired by the local ranches and are designed to cope with the weather and integrate well with the topography. Continue reading »

More Snow!
Posted by Larry Habegger
Ski season in the West is really cranking up with another big storm that dumped eight feet of snow on Lake Tahoe and other parts of the Sierra Nevada. Turns out it's the snowiest November in a decade, with all the major resorts opening for Thanksgiving with top-to-bottom runs operating.
Big Sky in Montana has twice its usual snowpack for Thanksgiving's opening day and is launching a twin zipline as well so you can zoom 1500 feet alongside your sweetheart or best buddy.
And if you've made your way to Yosemite National Park, the Curry Village Ice Rink opens on Thanksgiving as well.
There are so many choices but one thing's for sure: winter is here.

Cue the Deliverance Music.
There are many popular canoeing rivers in Northern California. The Sacramento River, from Red Bluff, 30 miles downriver in the shadows of Mount Shasta, to Woodson Bridge, is not one of them.
It was July 4th weekend so we were expecting crowds, and save for a few kayakers and boat enthusiasts, we pretty much had the river to ourselves. We had planned a moderate backpacking trip but when one in our party had abrupt knee surgery in April, we opted to paddle to our campsite instead of forcing the kids to hike with packs a la the Bataan Death March. The preparations were similar to a backpacking trip, but we could bring comfy pads and a cooler. I was concerned about tipping the canoe, but my friend hails from Minnesota and has done this sort of thing before.

Jonestown Tourism?
Posted by Darya Mead
Every time an expression with "Kool Aid" is used, I think about that unimaginable time in Jonestown, Guyana. It is both horrifying and fascinating.
As a young student, I remember being so haunted by the pictures and stories. Later, when I moved to California and worked in TV, I met a few folks who had covered the story, a personal tragedy for many in the San Francisco Bay Area. So it was with shock and intrigue that I read a recent article in the New York Times discussing the possibility that the ghostly jungle compound, where 900 people lost their lives, could become a tourist attraction. Visions of Dollywood, souvenir kiosks and, gasp, People's Temple T-shirts made me read on.
Guyana is lush and the only English speaking country in South America, in desperate need to diversify its economy. The sacred land that is now overgrown by jungle is remote, part of the original appeal for Reverend Jim Jones and his followers. Is it disrespectful? Would a research center to study cults be more appropriate? Or, should the jungle just do its thing and continue to smother the memory of the horrors there?

Stinson Boogie Boarding
Posted by Darya Mead
Summer vacation for my kids this year was a whopping 14 weeks; something about an early end to school in June and a late Labor Day. Whatever the reason it meant a ton of scrambling for summer activities for my kids. A group of parents decided to do a sort of 'Family Camp', where the week is split up so that one set of parents watches the group each day. The kids have fun and parents don't have to pay for so many day camps and can at least get some work done. I have to say the kids made out like bandits; they went to a water park, swimming pools, museums, parks and one day a trip to Stinson Beach. Continue reading »

Autumn in Tuolumne Meadows
Posted by Larry Habegger
Now is the time. The crowds are gone, the days are clear and warm and the nights are cool to cold. Mosquitoes and just about every other flying insect have bedded down for the winter or perished in the chill. Campsites are available. And Yosemite's vaunted Tuolumne Meadows is as beautiful in the fall as ever.
I spent the 4th of July holiday weekend there, my first visit in 25 years, which told me a couple of things: just how quickly time can pass and a quarter of a lifetime can slip beneath your feet; and how short-sighted I'd been to allow so many years to drift away without making the simple four-hour-plus drive up from San Francisco. I swam in Tenaya Lake, fished the pools and streams that fed into it, got some strikes in the Tuolumne River as it wound through the meadows, and later, at Cathedral Lake, saw a trout with a head as big as my fist emerge from the depths to strike my lure repeatedly before losing interest, too smart to be caught by an occasional fisherman like me.

Russian River Canoeing
Posted by Darya Mead
It was a hot summer day and I had promised my youngest son I would take him and his best friend, one of my best friend's daughters, canoeing on the Russian River. We left early and drove up to Guerneville, a small town along the river in Sonoma County. I wasn't sure what two almost six year olds would make of the adventure, but I was excited. I have fond memories of canoeing on the East Coast from my childhood and did it a few times on the Russian River in the early nineties. Visions of swimming and frolicking in the river, picnicking on a sandbar and most of all enjoying the day with my husband and the two kidlets got me revved for the escapade. We did some research and found a company named Burke's Canoe Trips that does half day adventures. This sounded great, but not with the wee ones; maybe with my ten year old and a buddy though. We found Johnson's Beach, a really quaint spot, where you could rent canoes by the hour; perfect for our questionable passengers. When we arrived we found a sweet little beach spot which reminded me of spots in NY I visited as a kid in the 70's; really low tech, really friendly and family run. It wasn't fancy but I liked it like that. You could rent an umbrella and a buff dude would come over and pound it into the sand for you. The snack bar served soft serve for a dollar and you could rent inner tubes to float along if you didn't want to paddle. The changing room was a wooden structure with hand-made curtains; loved it!

|Hitman Absolution. The linear levels and the disguise system just make it more annoying to play. Makes me sad as I loved Contracts and Blood Money.
The disguise system was naff, i agree there. It was highly unbelievable that people usually saw through your disguise so easily. But then i guess if disguises were fool proof the game would be easy mode, but i felt there could of been a better balance.
But on the second point, linear is not a word i would of associated with Absolution, like, at all. I thought there was a tonne of ways to get through each level. When i watch a play through a lot of people end up with different methods to complete the hit. But opinions vary.
I want to add Forza Horizon to my list, purely because my favorite car which was in Forza 4 was taken out, and then sold in a DLC pack for Horizon. DO NOT LIKE.

VATICAN CITY, JAN. 6, 2007 (Zenit.org).- Children can also be missionaries and "witnesses of God's tenderness," Benedict XVI said while celebrating Missionary Childhood Day.
The Holy Father explained today after praying the Angelus that this day is observed worldwide on the solemnity of the Epiphany, as it "is the feast of Christian children who live joyfully the gift of faith and pray that the light of Jesus will reach all the children of the world."
"I thank the children of 'Holy Childhood,' present in 110 countries, as they are precious cooperators of the Gospel and apostles of Christian solidarity in favor of the neediest," he said, addressing the crowd gathered in St. Peter's Square.
The Bishop of Rome encouraged "educators to cultivate in little ones the missionary spirit, so that impassioned missionaries will arise among them, witnesses of God's tenderness and proclaimers of his love."
The Pontifical Society for Missionary Childhood, part of the Pontifical Missionary Societies, aims to foster in children the desire to be missionaries and to help other children with prayer and financial support.
This society, founded in 1843, also helps educators — parents, catechists and teachers — to foster the universal missionary dimension in the education of children.
Above all, children give of their savings, which Missionary Childhood allocates yearly to support some 4,000 projects for the world's neediest children.

Jason Salter is Head of Real VR, a company recently established to fill the hole in the virtual reality and project marketing landscapes by providing the global launchpad for VR in real estate. Prior to the launch of Real VR, Jason spent two decades in the real estate industry in a variety of roles, including as a business owner.
Q. Take us through your journey of virtual reality – where did you first come across the technology and where has it taken you?
I lead the project marketing team that developed Australia's first virtual reality property experience for the EDGE 28 development in St Leonards, Sydney. Having the backing of the developer was obviously a welcome advantage. Part of the process involved working with some specialised VR content producers and what they were able to achieve opened my eyes to the possibilities and opportunities for VR in real estate.
It had a genuinely profound impact on me and the experience has actually taken me down a new career path. I'd been in the real estate industry, most recently in the project marketing space, for 20 years.
But I couldn't ignore what was happening with VR tech and ultimately it led me to establish Real VR. It's an exciting time for a burgeoning industry and Real VR is here at the outset.
Q. What level of success have you had with new technology compared to 'traditional' real estate strategies?
It's early days but the potential is clear. Encouragingly, we've already secured numerous overseas clients for which the production process is underway.
At this stage our focus is communicating the value proposition of VR. There's always been a disconnect when buying property off-the-plan. No matter how well designed and inviting a display apartment is, until you can provide an immersive experience to potential buyers you're not showcasing the property in the purest, most complete way. VR fills this gap.
Those who have experienced real VR – not just a 360-degree video on YouTube – are typically overwhelmed by the instantaneous engagement. It puts the buyer not only in the apartment, but in control of the navigation as they move through the property and experience the sights and sounds.
Q. Have there been any issues to overcome?
One of the major challenges is convincing developers that they no longer need to spend money on display apartments. Creating a virtual tour is a fraction of the cost and has far greater reach. With a smartphone and headset you can access an immersive, true-to-life experience of an off-the-plan apartment no matter where you are in the world.
But some developers say that display apartments have worked in the past and there is, among some, a reticence to change. The fact is, the property market has changed too. The boom of recent years is over and while the market for real estate is increasingly global, properties no longer sell themselves.
It's often the case in the development industry that tier one companies will lead the way and subsequent tiers will follow suit. The widespread adoption of VR as part of the developer's marketing strategy may follow the same trend, though the wheels are already in motion.
Q. In your opinion, how does the real estate landscape appear to be faring in terms of current practices and new technology? How have things changed since you started?
It's a generalisation, but from my perspective the real estate industry has welcomed new technology and adapted well to change without necessarily driving that change.
Those in the industry will say it's dynamic, and they're right. But there remain some operators that resist change and the opportunities that advancements in technology create.
There's an education process, not just for those in real estate and associated industries like ourselves, and this process is ongoing. Embracing the idea that there's always more to learn, that there's always a place to innovate, can be empowering.
Q. What advice would you give real estate agents and property hunters, given your experience?
Being able to effectively engage with customers is crucial. This is part of the driving force behind the development of VR in real estate. It's about communicating your value proposition, whether you're a developer or an agent, to the buyer in the most complete, immersive way possible.
Those in the business of selling real estate to an increasingly discerning buyer market need to embrace change, recognise the opportunities associated with new technology, and put themselves in the buyer's shoes.
Buying property has always been a very personal experience, particularly for owner-occupiers. Those in the market can analyse an endless stream of figures and statistics – certainly research is a critical part of the process – but they also need to consider their own circumstances, including their own lifestyle and the lifestyle they desire.
The numbers of course matter, but so does the experience and feel of a property, being able to imagine yourself living there. Therefore agents must do all they can to communicate this experience to the buyer.
Q. What do you predict for the future of real estate VR?
VR is a technology on the precipice, not just for real estate but across many industries. I think we'll look back on 2016 as the year VR really entered the public conscious. The technology already existed of course, but only recently has its potential begun to be explored – not just in an entertainment sense but from a corporate perspective too.
The reason behind the establishment of Real VR is to provide the first clear path for VR technology's inevitable march into real estate. Ideally, as recognition and familiarity with VR tech grows, we envisage developers, agents, architects and even advertising agencies adopting VR as an integral component of their marketing strategies, to reach a global audience.

It really depends strongly on the details of your individual medical history. You should spend the time to interview with an attorney in-depth. Initial consultations are free so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. If you would like to speak with me, you can call toll-free (877) LION-FOR-LAW (546-6367)
Are you one of the plaintiffs in one of the suits that settled? If so, you need to contact the firm handling the case. If you are not, then you will not get anything from the case settlement. You will have to contact an attorney and pursue an action yourself. One group of firms representing roughly 10,000 plaintiffs, settled for $460 million. That works out to $46,000 per plaintiff, but that is before attorneys fees and costs. Figure probably a net average of $25-30,000. I have no idea how the settlement funds were allocated, though. The numbers I gave were just mathmatical averages.

THE number of dead from the latest earthquake in El Salvador rose to 260 yesterday as rescue workers struggled to reach the worst-affected areas.
At least 2,261 were reported injured, and the figures were expected to rise. The cities and towns east of San Salvador, the capital, were worst hit by the tremor, which measured 6.6 on the Richter scale.
About 70 per cent of the 2,000 homes in San Vicente, 40 miles east of San Salvador, were flattened. The capital escaped largely unaffected, although it is without drinking water after pipes were broken. Since the huge earthquake of January 13 the tremors have continued, weakening buildings so much that they could not resist the second major tremor.
The roof of a small schoolhouse in Candelaria, about 20 miles east of San Salvador, survived the January 13 quake and about 3,200 aftershocks, but collapsed on Tuesday morning. A teacher and 14 children aged between four and seven were killed. Anabel Chavez, the teacher, was found with her arms around some of the children, in an attempt to shield them as the building collapsed.
The rest of Candelaria was badly hit, with the Red Cross reporting that 90 per cent of the village was destroyed. President Francisco Flores said: "I appeal to the population for calm. Even though it is a new blow for the country, it is not as harsh as January 13 was."
The January 13 earthquake was 7.6 on the Richter scale. It killed 844 people, injured 4,723 and destroyed 278,000 houses, leaving more than a million homeless.

2) Pastel or brights? Oooh, can I not say both? It depends really but most of the time, probably pastels.
3) Is there/What's the meaning behind your blog name? Elesaurus is actually something my boyfriend used to call me. Childish, I know, it was a weird joke we had. I used that for this blog because I really don't have the imagination to think of anything else!
4) What is your most used emoji? I don't really use emojis...for one thing I am one of those rare people that don't have an iPhone.

BYU freshman Nick Emery received a flagrant 2 foul and the gate after sucker punching Utah senior Brandon Taylor during Wednesday night's game.
The Utes led by 19 with less than two minutes to play in the game when Emery swung his left arm, seemingly unprovoked, at Taylor under Utah's basket and connected. Emery then stared Taylor down and said something Taylor wouldn't repeat after the game because it was "very foul."

Utah fans began throwing objects on the floor following Emery's ejection and got a technical foul, but the Utes wrapped an 83-75 victory up several minutes later.
"It was a dirty play," Taylor told reporters after the game. "And I don't have respect for guys like those."

Hello everyone!
I am planning a trip to Europe with my girlfriend. We are both in our early to mid 20's and have never been to Europe before. We plan on being there for 28 days from mid October until mid November. I have come up with a temporary itinerary and wanted to know what everyone thought. Like I said, neither of us have been to Europe and want to experience it to the fullest! We want to visit historical sites, we're both big on trying the local cuisine and beers, and learning more about the culture, and enjoy outdoor activities. With those in mind, I would greatly appreciate any input on which sites to see while we're abroad.
Dublin: 4 nights
London: 4 nights
Paris: 4 nights
Luxembourg: 2 nights
Cologne: 2 nights
Prague: 3 nights
Berlin: 4 nights
Amsterdam: 4 nights
I am also intrigued by Brussels. Does anyone think adding it to the list is too many places? Or do I already have too many stops? Please be honest as this is just a tentative itinerary. Thank you all!

First Time Europe Trip
Hello everyone!
Report Abuse
You need to work how you are going to get between cities eg plane , train and calculate how much travel time that eats into your days and also put them in some sort of order eg you can go by train fron London to Paris, then to Brussels if you want to add that then Amsterdam- all by train
Depending where you are coming from you can either fly into London or Dublin .
Comment has been removed by Fodor's moderators
Report Abuse
As others have said, you have to optimize transport and bring your destinations in a more logical order. If you do this you will see that Luxembourg is a bit out of the way and, honestly, I would suggest to skip it, especially if you want to go to Brussels which is halfway betwenn Paris and Amsterdam. I would not consider Luxembourg a number-one-destination in Europe.
You will read here that many Fodorites do not like Brussels too much, but it has a spectacular medieval market, a healthy old town and some art nouveau buildings. A day (or even half a day) or an evening would be enough.
Otherwise, you have a selection of fine cities and I would not know what to cut from the itinerary.
A logical order would be:
Dublin - flight to London
London - train to Paris (2:26)
Paris - train to Brussels (1:41)
Brussels - train to Amsterdam (1:50)
Amsterdam - train to Cologne (2:43)
Cologne - train to Berlin (4:18)
Berlin - train to Prague (4:28)
If you take either morning or evening trains you will have at least half days either at the city of departure or of arrival and you will not lose too much time for travelling.
Be aware that mid-October to mid-November is a nasty season in Europe: expect rain, fog, low temperatures and days becoming shorter. I am afraid there will not be outdoor activities in this time of year.
But you will see historical architecture, museums, cozy cafés and restaurants and enjoy your first trip to Europe.

Get a good, big, paper map of Europe and some pins. Spread it out on a big table and put the pins in the places you want to visit. That will give you a good visual of your best route. Then get on the internet and calculate the distances between each place. Then check out the flight possibilities between places that are distant from each other using something like Skyscanner.com. Then get familiar with the national railroads of each country and check on schedules and prices for point-to-point tickets on trains between cities (do this at least 3 months out from the dates of travel - but checking now will give you a good idea of times and prices). Then do the math - how long will it take you to wake up in X city and land at your accommodation in Y city. Add it all up - the times and the prices - and you'll have a plan.
Sometimes planning travel the old-fashioned way is the best way.
I would not call mid-October to November "nasty." It was absolutely beautiful here in France last October and November (and December and January).
Plan to purchase open-jaw tickets (into one destination and out of another), so you don't have to spend time and money backtracking.

StCirq, this year the winter was absolutely unusual - we have never experienced such a warm and sunny winter before and do not count in having it again. And you live in the south of France while OP concentrates on more northern parts of Europe. He should better pack sweaters and rainjackets to be prepared.
Report Abuse
You don't say where you are from so we're not sure what weather you're used to. At that time of year the weather in those countries will be similar to that in the northern US: some sunny days, some rain with temps that may be moderate, cool or chilly - so not heavy winter clothes but definitely fall outerwear and shoes you can wear rain or shine. And a sturdy folding umbrella. Outdoor activities may be limited - although you can always hike or bike.
Day are definitely getting shorter and in some places sights will be open fewer hours than they would in the summer. Also in allocating days look to see which one museums are closed (varies by country)

A lot of sound advice above.
It would be a pity just to cross Belgium on your way from Paris to Amsterdam, and not to experience it. Brussels is very much love it or hate it, but a few days in Gent would be nice. It's very close to Brussels and Brugge, which can easily be done by very frequent trains.
Get yourself acquainted with the pan-European railway planner of the German railways www.bahn.de/p_en/view/index.shtml. At present it doesn't offer the autumn schedules, but it gives you a pretty accurate idea of the railway connections. When your trip gets a more definitive form, advance buying of the tickets gives you a considerable discount (often more than 50%). Those should be made with the relevant national companies.
Enjoy your planning!

Good points, traveller. This is the first winter we've lived in Europe.

Cities are not equal. Your division of time fails to account for this.
I'd consider dropping Dublin, adding to London, Paris and Prague (if you're set on getting there) and configuring accordingly.

Thank you everyone for all the helpful information! I am currently living in South Dakota so the cold and wet don't bother me. Traveller1959, thank you for your help. I have been trying to figure out the best route to take for my trip since there are many options. I know I will be flying out of a different city then I landed in to save time from backtracking. Does anyone else have any thoughts on Luxembourg or Brussels? StCirq, thank you for your help as well. I like the idea of planning the old fashioned way.
Can anyone tell me how the hostels are in the cities I mentioned? I plan on staying in a few to save some money. Also, what is the best way of touring these cities (on our own, guided walking/bus tour, etc.)?
Report Abuse
There's no one answer to those kinds of questions. Some people prefer to make their own city tours, some join a group, some use a self-guided walking map, some do hop on hop off bus tours or canal/boat rides. It's whatever you want.
As to your initial itinerary, I would cross off at least two stops (whichever ones interest you least or are the most out of the way geographically) to give a little more time in each place. "2 days" really don't work because by the time you get there and the time you leave you're barely got 1 day in reality.
Report Abuse
Good advice up to now
I d definitely drop Luxembourg spend a day on the in Bxl for Paris to Amsterdam
Stop in Bxl midi put luggage in locker (on the way from the thalys train) take another train to Bxl central. (5 min) start there.
reduce time in koeln and Prague and add in Berlin.
Hotels are cheap in Berlin and Prague seems to me exp in London and you can find easily around 100 120 in Paris.
Weather in mid oct through mid November is usually bad in Belgium and same in Parus an Koeln. Usually rainy windy and cold.
That is around 5 C and often freezing in the night. This year was more like 15c and not that rainy.

Thank you for the suggestions Whathello. I'm curious, why drop Luxembourg? From all the pictures I've seen it is a beautiful city.
Report Abuse
It is excentered and pale in comparison with the other cities. Not that much to see - one lovely view from outside sums it for me - so
I don't like it at all but these are my tastes - hope somebody gives additional info of you should look more
Report Abuse
One thing to think about, whether or not you want to take any kind of city tour is, think about your time and what you might want to see. A tour will get you into places that otherwise might be crowded or have long lines. You can see more without getting lost and wasting time trying to find places. Getting lost is wonderful when you have the time, but can be a waste when you only have a few days to do things before moving on.
I think one advantage of traveling in the fall is site won't be so crowded. I was in Paris, my last trip, the week before Thanksgiving, and we had no wait or trouble getting into any of the sites we wanted to see.
Anyway, you'll figure out how you want to do it.
Report Abuse
Do not reco bus tours in city. They usually just put glass between you and the sights/people and are least common denominator. If you find walking tours that you find interesting they are much better. We did an architectural tour of old town Prague with a grad student from the university and it was fascinating and cost only $5. The city hall there has info on a bunch of walking tours as well as all cultural opportunities.
I would just be careful not to give short shrift to London. It is several times larger than the other cities and has way more major sights - IMHO 5 days (6 nights) there is just scratching the surface.

That is all amazing advice and definitely gives me more to think about. Thank you to everyone who gave their advice!
So as for places to stay, would anyone recommend staying in a hostel? Are they safe in the European cities I want to visit?

Why drop Luxembourg?
First, without Luxembourg, you will have an easy itinerary with rather short trips between the destinations. Including Luxembourg would require a time-consuming zig-zagged route.
Second, there is not much to see and to do in Luxembourg, at least compared to other European cities.
A few word about Belgian cities. Brussels would be directly on your way from Paris to Amsterdam, so it would be a very convenient stop. The Grand Market is one the most beautiful medieval city squares in Europe and around it, your find some nice areas to walk. Also a lively bar and restaurant scene, including several art nouveau bars. Even if you have only the afternoon and the evening, you will enjoy the city.
Brugge is also quite easy accessible by train. This is a picture-postcard historical town with medieval architecture, museums and a lot of water. Also doable, but would require a bit more time on the trains. Paris-Brugge 2:49 with 1 change of trains, Brugge-Amsterdam 2:45 with 2 changes.
Ghent has a big castle and it also very picturesque, but for a first-time trip to Europe, I would favour Brugge. Or Brussels for accessibility when taking the train from Paris to Amsterdam. Paris-Ghent 2:13 with 1 change, Ghent-Amsterdam 2:16 with 1 change.

I too would drop Luxembourg. In the context of a first trip to Europe, it's not a city that floats my boat. I guess I'd also question Cologne. It's just not that compelling for a first trip.
My son is about your age. The cities he loves are Dublin, London, Paris, and Amsterdam (as do I). Berlin gets rave reviews from younger people. I'm going there for the first time in September, so have no first hand knowledge. Those 5 seem like good selections.
If I took the days from Luxembourg and Cologne, I might suggest getting a cheap flight and heading south. Barcelona or Rome might be two suggestions. That might improve your chance of good weather in late November. And you can fly open jaw (into Dublin or London, home from Barcelona or Rome). If you are at all budget sensitive, I might suggest you drop from Prague to Budapest and finish the trip there. I lived there for 2 years. My kids all loved it. It's a great city for someone of your age.
My kids are quite spread in age. When my eldest did his Europe thing in his 20s, he tended to travel by train. My daughter last summer tended to fly discounted airlines. You may be able to cover quite a bit of ground if you use inexpensive flights vs. train travel. I rarely take long haul trains as flying is almost always cheaper.
I won't comment on time. At your age, 3 or 4 days in a city is actually quite slow (I'm old, I like to sit a spell). Many on this forum will disagree with that advice. Personally, I think you are moving at a good pace for your age. If this were my trip, I would remove Lux and Cologne, I'd carve it into another spot.
Lastly (then I'll shut up, I promise). Dublin is very well served by RyanAir. You might want to start in London, fly to Dublin.. and then fly from Dublin to your next city (just don't fly RyanAir into Paris).
Have a wonderful trip.

Julie is right. We all are turning into old timers here but when younger I would cram much more.

Another, "don't bother with Luxembourg" when there is so much more to see and enjoy.
And Cologne except for a quick visit IF it is en route. I'd add to Paris for sure.
And if Ireland is really a big desire, do it. If not, add to some of the other places--you'll save a little money on transportation costs.
If you take some places out and add anything, I think Munich is a worthy stop.

I have to defend Cologne.
Cologne has layers of history, dating from Roman times. And it is a lively, vibrant city with lots of things to see and to do.
I have taken numerous international guest from USA, Australia, Japan, Brasil and other countries to Cologne, and each of them - without any exception - was fascinated.
Cologne appears to have a not-so-good reputation among Americans, but this is mainly the effect of American guidebooks which tend to neglect the Northern half of Germany totally. You may call it prejudice. Or ignorance. Whatever, here the reasons why you should visit Cologne:
- The Cathedral (Dom). It is one of the few gothic cathedrals that had been completed (including two spires). It is one of the largest and one of the most beautiful ones. It has priceless works of art inside and the shrine of the Three Magi. The Treasury is one of the best at all. The Cathedral is UNESCO World Heritage since 1996.
- 12 (twelve) romanesque churches which are even older than the cathedral.
- The Romano-Germanic Museum with outstanding archeology from Germanic and Roman times, including mosaics, a huge burial monument, jewellery and the finest glassworks of Roman times in the world.
- The ruins of the Roman Palace in the cellar of the medieval City Hall. These ruins include a 200-meter-long, 2,000-year-old sewer which is walkable.
- Remnants of a Jewish Mikwe in front of the City Hall.
- World-Class art museums, one for medieval art and one for modern art.
- Around a dozen microbreweries, producing a light local beer (called "Kölsch") and serving local fare.
- A rich cultural scene.
- A chocolate museum that includes a working chocolate factory that produces small pieces of chocolate which are given to the visitors as souvenirs.
- A riverfront with a park, beer gardens, bars and restaurants in historical houses.
- In addition to history, you will see some bright modern architecture which will fascinate you, too (especially near the chocolate museum).

Ryan--I posted on your other thread, but take a look at the Circus Hostel in Berlin. Our kids are your ages and just stayed there recently and loved it. There is a microbrewery on site as well.

Ryan-when in Prague, try Krusovice beer. It is somewhat of a premium beer in the eyes of Czechs. Oh, so good. A mug of it is like eating a steak dinner. Tastiest beer I've ever had. Pronounced Kroos-o-vee-chee.

I would recommend any of the YHA properties. We used several around the UK (not in London, unfortunately) and we've always been impressed with the rooms and the overall quality of their hostels.

Tomboy, as someone who loves to try new beers I will definitely take your suggestion and try Krusovice.
Everyone else who commented, I appreciate all you had to say. Your advice will definitely help me plan my trip.
Even though it is 8 months away, I am already getting very excited based on all your responses!
As far as the local cuisine in the places on my itinerary, which foods would you say I would have to try?

Statins, effective lipid-lowering agents used to treat high cholesterol, may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, according to a Molecular Epidemiology of Colorectal Cancer study in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The researchers say statins inhibit the growth of colon-cancer cell lines and may have chemopreventive activity against cancer. Their recent findings are significant considering colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States, with approximately 145,000 new cases and 56,300 deaths projected for 2005.
The results are encouraging:
- The use of statins for at least five years (vs. the nonuse of statins) was associated with a 47 percent relative reduction in the risk of colorectal cancer after adjustment for other known risk factors.
- The protective association remained significant among patients with a family history of colorectal cancer.
- In the study?s average-risk population, 4,814 persons would need to be treated with statins to prevent one case of colorectal cancer, whereas in a high-risk population half as many would need to be treated to prevent one case.
The researchers say their data is consistent with preclinical data suggesting that it is biologically plausible that statins may have a role in colorectal cancer. No significant association was found between other types of cholesterol-lowering drugs and the risk of colorectal cancer, indicating the specific effect of statins.
Researchers say aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) could also be attractive chemopreventive candidates, although concern about toxicity may limit broad application of these agents. In vitro data suggest statins may have a positive synergistic effect with NSAIDs, but further research is necessary.

Review Date: February 08, 2002
Director: John McTiernan
Writer: Larry Ferguson, John Pogue
Producers: John McTiernan, Charles Roven, Beau St-Clair
Chris Klein as Jonathan Cross
LL Cool J as Marcus Ridley
Jean Reno as Alexi Petrovich
What else? Oh yeah, the story. The plotline in this film is predictable, boring, stupid and packed with holes. The bad guys are the same, with no apparent skills in covering up their bad guy tracks either. (everybody knows what they're up to) The film also sports one of the worst editing jobs that I've seen in quite some time, with many of them being too quick to even pick up the action. The games themselves are also unexciting, with more quick cuts and little suspense or interest in any of their outcomes. McTiernan also likes to focus on the band during the games, the reporters (especially this one super-annoying dude who could not have been any more annoying if he tried), money being counted and the ratings meter going up every second (wow, how exciting...). But the ultimate bad choice in this film is a sequence in which the entire screen is in night-vision green for about 5-10 minutes. Why, you might ask? I have no idea!! The tactic might've been cute if used for a few seconds, but here we get car chases, gun shots, motorcycles stunts all shown to us through an obvious digital camera, in green...and blurry! All I could say while watching that was, "What the hell were these people thinking?" It felt like amateur hour at the local community college with a few drunk students going out into the desert and fooling around with their video cameras. The scene also features Klein and LL apparently doing 120MPH on a motorcycle, but we as an audience, cannot sense any of that rush, but can definitely imagine them sitting in a studio lot somewhere, with a wind machine blowing really hard in their faces. Yawn.
The studio should be ashamed of releasing a film in such a horrible state. Having already been pushed back from its original release date in 2001, and removed of all its bloodier violence, sex scenes and nudity (so you cast Romjin-Stamos for her good looks, but you have her clothed and masked throughout the entire movie...makes sense to me!), this flick feels like a turd that nobody ever bothered to clean off the floor and just ended up getting stinkier and stinkier and stinkier. But you know me...I try to find "good" elements in all films and I will give this movie super-tiny props for a decent soundtrack, a potentially cool premise in the game, some interesting violent "take-outs" during the matches, a solid opening sequence and much (unintended) humor! It's not necessarily as "incoherent" as some are making it out to be (although I still have no idea who Sergei was), but it's definitely a bad movie, through and through. And the worst part about a movie like this is that it doesn't even achieve its primary goal, which I assume was...to entertain.

My fruity little number
Fruit-inspired outfit for Friday. I love this sweater - very cute and colourful. Also check out the hair; it's very subtle but I have a new secret weapon: hair boostias, they're plastic crescents that sit under your hair at the crown to give it a beehive effect (click on the link below to buy them from Amazon). I'm wearing the smallest one which just gives a slight lift, but you get a pack of several different sizes, so I'll be trying to get a big Adele-style do with the biggest size over the next couple of weeks. I have a little head so they should work wonders for me (saves on backcombing as well).

Grandma Beryl's Chicken Soup
8 comments
- Marla Goldstone30 December 2016 at 17:04
Dearest Aaron, Reading your beautifully written tribute to Grandma Beryl has literally brought me to tears. She was the heart and soul of the Vallance family and her kindness, graciousness, sweetness and humour are sorely missed. Although she was your mum's mother-in-law, as your auntie, I was immediately included and embraced as an honorary member of the Vallance family. I am so grateful to have been able to spend time with her in October before she passed away. Your image of your grandparents together is so precious. I think they were the happiest married couple I have ever known. I cannot wait to try out this recipe and I promise not to compare it my sister's !!! Love and hugs, Auntie Marla xxxxxReplyDeleteReplies
Aw Auntie Marla, thanks so much for your lovely words. Yes, Grandma was such a kind soul and a treasure. Loved her neverending sense of humour, no matter what. And her chicken soup was just amazing - mine's not a patch on hers! (Not sure though what her secret was..!) Lots of love, Aaron xxDelete
I didn't even know your grandma and I feel I fondly towards her! You do have a gift for evocation, Aaron.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks so much Deb for your kind words. Anyone who met Grandma immediately warmed to her, she was that kinda lady.. XDelete
This is such a touching, open and lovely post! I'm so sorry for your loss but glad you have such gorgeous memories and appreciate you sharing them with us! Having grown up in an area with a large Jewish community I am more than familiar with that type of chicken soup - it really does fix everything (and am desperate to find somewhere to get some near me or replicate it myself).ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you so much Laura for your kind words! Chicken soup really does fix everything - there are even medical reports attesting to this! Thanks so much again, and look forward to meeting you soon..Delete
Honestly Aaron, if you ever decide to give up the day job, you would have no problems at all making it as a professional writer. All your posts make for such engaging reading and this one, in particular, as I think you made all your readers feel almost as if they were in that living room and part of Grandma Beryl's extending family. She sounds like such a warm, caring and witty woman and although I didn't know her obviously, I get a little hunch that she may have been really very proud and happy to know that her chicken soup brought so much love and joy and that it has been immortalised on the web here for all of us to see (and wish we could try!) Sorry for your loss Aaron but glad it was a peaceful end for her.ReplyDelete
Shikha, thank you so much for your lovely words. I'm actually really touched. So glad too that I've managed to capture some of Grandma's warmth and wit, she really was such an incredible lady, and much loved..ReplyDelete

One of the most valuable, yet overlooked record sets for genealogical research is the tax digest.
When census records are missing, tax records can fill the gap, showing residence in a particular place at a particular time. Combined with other evidence, a number of facts can be gleaned from extant tax digest. But extracting information from the digest requires patience and perseverance.

Swish Jr. is an adaptation of the wildly popular Swish for younger players. A Swish is made when two cards (or more) are stacked on top of each other so that the solid shapes fill in the matching shape and color outlines. In order to make a Swish, the cards may be rotated and flipped, but must lay on top of each other in the same direction so that the blue borders on the cards line up. Swish Jr. is loads of fun and develops visual and spatial thinking skills. Learn to move the cards in your mind and you'll be an expert at making Swishes. A fun game of visual perception the whole family will enjoy!

32 bit or 64 bit version on a partitioned hard drive
It was suggested in another windows 7 forum that I place this at this forum to see what your answer would be.
(They also suggested that I select the 64 bit.)
I have purchased a brand new computer Windows 7 Toshiba Satellite P750.
I am a trainer and still have to train in Microsoft Office applications 2003, 2007 and now 2010. I want to partition my new computer so that I can run all three versions on it.
The quick installation guide says that during the installation I have to "select one version of operating system if prompted 32 bit or 64 bit". I am leaning towards selecting 32 bit version but am not sure if this is the correct choice.
Can anyone please advise what would be the correct choice?
Also can anyone point me to an easy instruction on how to partition the drive to enable me to run these three versions of office software.
Do I need to also install xp operating system with 2003 office software and vista os with 2007 software?
Thanks heaps

Raja Brooke Butterfly
From Nookipedia, the Animal Crossing wiki
(Redirected from Raja Brooke)
The Raja Brooke Butterfly (アカエリアゲハ, Akaeriageha), also referred to as Raja B. Butterfly or Raja Brooke, is an uncommon type of tiger butterfly first introduced in City Folk. It is the only butterfly to be attracted to water, rather than plants. It is usually active from 8 AM to 5 PM.
Donating to the Museum[edit]
In City Folk[edit]
Upon donating a Raja Brooke to the museum, Blathers will say;
It can be found in the bottom left area of the insect exhibit, flying around the pond.
In New Leaf[edit]
Upon being donated, the butterfly can be found in the first room of the bug exhibit resting on flowers with the other butterflies. The exhibit has this to say about the Raja Brooke Butterfly:
Bug Encyclopedia Information[edit]
In City Folk[edit]
Further Information[edit]
The butterfly is actually a type of birdwing. It has distinctive black and electric-green markings, which are more prominent in the males, while the females have white markings. Both have a red head and another strip of red afterward, which is called a collar. It was named by Alfred R. Wallace in 1855, after James of Sarawak, the Rajah of Sarawark. It is also called the Rajah Brooke butterfly, sometimes mistaking the Animal Crossing spelling as a mistake - though both are acceptable. They can be found in the rainforests of Borneo and the Malaysian Peninsula, and is featured as the national butterfly of Malaysia. It is registered as being under protection.
Names in other languages[edit]
