Can't update Office 2010
I have a notification of a new update, but it won't install. It's update KB2494150. I keep getting the error code 80078006E. I've tried to click on "remove program" and choose "repair," but that option isn't available. It just starts to remove it. I've run the Windows Update Troubleshooter, which says it's repairing things, but the update still won't install.
I tried to do a manual install, but then I get the message "An error occurred while running detection." I also tried to do a clean boot and install it; no luck.
Anybody have any ideas about what to do next?

Maybe something here will help:
Can't install Office updates KB2494150 & KB2493983 - Microsoft Answers
In no particular order:
Tip: Insert your Office 2010 CD into the appropriate drive bay before the next installation attempt.
Tip: Access either of the following KB articles via IE (32-bit) only, run the Fix It & reboot before the next installation attempt:
Error code "0x80070646," "646," or "1606" running Windows Update
You receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a Microsoft program [ignore title, error number, etc.]
Tip: If no joy, see if you can download the "fullfile" version of the update(s) via Microsoft Download Center or Microsoft Update Catalog and then install it/them manually.
Tip: If still no joy & you're running Win7 or Vista, temporarily disable (turn off) User Account Control (UAC) before the next installation attempt.

Maybe it has partially installed on one of the previous attempts. Have you checked to see if it appears in the 'installed updates' list?
Start > All Programs > Windows Update > View Update History (from the menu on the left-hand side).
Search through the list for the exact KB number - if it appears, go to 'see Installed Updates' (link towards the top of the Update History screen).
Find the KB again > right-click it and touch 'Uninstall'.
Next try the installation again.

Now the update notice isn't showing up, and it says my computer is up to date. So I went to the "installed updates," and there it is in the list as installed. Go figure. It must have fixed itself - or one of the things you recommended doing worked, even though it didn't seem to.

NORTHBROOK — Northbrook village officials will soon determine the fate of where medical marijuana dispensaries can set up around town.On Aug. 5, the Northbrook Plan Commission passed its official recommendation to the board for an ordinance that would make marijuana dispensaries conditional uses in certain areas, as towns like Des Plaines had done.Dispensaries in Northbrook would be considered conditional uses in the neighborhood commercial district, central business district, regional shopping district and the boulevard commercial district.Northbrook building and planning boss Tom Poupard suggested in April that the public hearings, which accompanied the special use permit applications, had too high a potential to instigate a long series of pro- and anti-marijuana arguments—unnecessary banter that would create more problems than solve.Should the board heed the plan commission's advice and adopt the resolution, the dispensaries will not have to follow special sign restrictions, a direction different from the one Des Plaines took.Joe Friedman, a pharmacist who works at Mark Drugs in unincorporated Deerfield, had mentioned in July that he wasn't all too concerned about signage stipulations, as his would be simple, anyway–should he get his wish to open up a dispensary in Northbrook. His wasn't going to be a recreational-use store trying to lure in new customers.Dispensaries in Illinois are destinations sought out by people with a form from their doctor—they don't get drive-by traffic.The Lincolnshire resident and two other partners—attorney Stuart Gimbel, also of Lincolnshire, and Mark Drugs Owner Mark Mandel, of Schaumburg—have made it known that they've been eyeing Northbrook, Deerfield, Mundelein, Belleville and Schaumburg as places in which they'd like to open dispensaries.The motion for the resolution was passed by the plan commission 6-2, with Commissioners Bryan Schimel and Muriel Collison casting the two "no" votes.[embedded content]

Immigration procedures are of various types. There are family-oriented immigration procedures, and
then there are employment centric procedures. Needs are not similar, they vary from person to person.
But each of these procedures is pretty complicated. It takes expertise and knowledge to handle the
intricate details of immigration procedures including those related to naturalization. The Immigration
Services Los Angeles is there to offer its assistance to the concerned people, including those who are
desirous of a permanent residency in the USA.
Aspects handled by immigration lawyers
The immigration service is manned by skillful lawyers who are well conversant with this particular area
of law. The lawyers have a thorough knowledge of visa related matters, the issues related to
deportation and those pertaining to the protection of the children's status. As a prospective immigrant,
interested in the process of naturalization, you should know what conditions to fulfill and how to fulfill
those. The immigration lawyers are there to provide you with the clues and inputs so that you can gear
yourself suitably for the said process of naturalization.
Another specialized area
Similar to immigration laws, tort law is another area of specialization. The latter relates to accidents
which occur on account of the other's negligence. As a victim, you have the right to seek the
compensation from the party that was responsible for causing the accident. This particular area of law is
handled by the injury lawyers. If you are injured anywhere in Los Angeles, you can seek the assistance of
one of the certified Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorneys. The names of reputed lawyers are available
in the state's bar association. You can refer to the online portal of the bar association for contacting a

Although much has already been accomplished this year, MEPs still have many important legislative files to deal with before the end of the year. The Parliament will have to decide on matters that will affect the EU and Europeans for years to come, such as the long-term budget, banking supervision, data protection and better protection for temporary workers. Read on to find out more.
In the autumn the Parliament will vote on a proposed deal for the EU's long-term budget for 2014-2020. This will also affect the reform of the EU's agricultural policy.
During the September session Commission president José Manuel Barroso will present the EU's priorities for 2014 during his state of the union address and debate them with MEPs. In addition MEPs will vote on tougher rules for tobacco products to prevent young people from taking up smoking and a proposal to promote greener biofuels.
The Parliament is also working on a new regulation on a single set of rules for all data collected online to ensure they are kept safe as well as on a directive on data processing in law enforcement. In addition the civil liberties committee is conducting an inquiry into the Prism scandal and will report back to the Parliament by the end of the year.
In October MEPs are expected to vote on a proposal to give better protection to the one million workers temporarily posted in another European country by their employers every year.
MEPs will also aim to reach an agreement with the Council on the single supervision of European banks.

Interest in traditional skills and crafts among young people worldwide is declining.
What do you think are the causes of this development and what measures could be taken to solve it
Most older people have seen life change dramatically compared to the younger generation, with some things emerging and others such as traditional skills and crafts declining. A number of causes have contributed to this latter situation, but it can be addressed by various steps.
The main cause, perhaps, is the rapid pace of development in modern life brought about by globalization. The world is now more connected than before, so new ideas and ways of doing things are spreading around the world rapidly. For example, while in the past basic materials like furniture and other household utensils were made by hand and the skills passed down from generation to generation, now these items like many others are mass-produced by machines in one or two locations and shipped around the world.
Another factor is that young people are required to learn new skills mainly revolving around technology and so older traditional skills lose their value. Hense, young people have no interest, as there is less need to learn these skills.
To help maintain the interest in traditional crafts and skills, the answer lies in focusing on the problem at school level. Like languages, if the skills are not used, they will decline and disappear. So, if children are taught crafts like making traditional items such as carpets and furniture by hand, there is a chance interest in these will survive.
Great value is often attached to items such as clothing, carpets and furniture that are hand-made. Therefore, with careful marketing and advertising coupled with apprenticeships and targeted funding, attention can be drawn to traditional skills and crafts and in many cases these symbols of a culture can be revived.
In conclusion, with care and attention there is no reason why traditional crafts and skills within all culture should not survive, and indeed thrive.

When Fairfax-based information technology contractor SRA International canceled on short notice its presentation at a government IT conference in Washington last month, the rumors started circulating. Was the company, which generated $1.67 billion in revenue in 2010 and has more than 4,000 local employees, considering a major change?
SRA spoke up last month, acknowledging that, after receiving multiple questions about whether it was accepting offers, the company had hired a financial adviser. It cautioned, however, against viewing the move as an indication that the company "is or should be for sale."
The firm's stock price surged nonetheless as SRA became the latest government contractor to get caught up in the swirl of merger and acquisition activity reshaping the local economy.
Companies big and small have been rethinking their portfolios and buying and selling accordingly. Locally, Boeing bought Fairfax-based Argon ST -- which had lingered on the market for about six months; Lockheed Martin decided to divest its Enterprise Integration Group, which provided systems engineering and integration services; and White Plains, N.Y.-based ITT Corp. announced it would separate into three pieces: a manufacturing business, a water technology firm and a McLean-based defense and information solutions firm.
The shake-up is likely the most significant since the early 1990s, when reductions in defense spending forced widespread consolidation. That was the era when today's contracting behemoths were formed; Lockheed Corp. and Martin Marietta became Lockheed Martin, while Northrop Aircraft and Grumman Aerospace became Northrop Grumman. The number of companies able to serve as a prime contractor for tactical missile programs, for instance, fell from 13 to three, according to a Government Accountability Office report.
This time around, the corporate moves suggest the industry is working from a different playbook.
"The previous wave of consolidation of the defense industry reflected a collapsing threat and the willingness of policymakers to lead sector consolidation," said Loren Thompson, a defense industry consultant at the Lexington Institute. Today, "threats may actually be growing and the Pentagon isn't all that eager to see further consolidation."
That helps explain why the recent flurry of buying and selling seems more strategic in nature. So far, at least, the industry has shied away from any blockbuster deals.
"This is neither the '90s nor the last decade; it's different," Pentagon acquisition chief Ashton Carter said at a June briefing. "It's an environment in which we're going to have slow real growth, and our senior managers and our partners in industry need to manage accordingly."
As a result, companies are seeking to reorient their businesses, selling off units that pose potential conflicts of interest or are not core to a company's operations and buying businesses in what are widely considered growth industries like cybersecurity, health IT and cloud computing.
Whether it's Northrop Grumman's decision to likely spin off its shipbuilding business or McLean-based ATS Corp.'s recent declaration that it is pursuing strategic alternatives, the moves have at times been unpredictable, leading to a feeling that there's little consensus in the industry on the best way to adapt.
Companies have "got to be prepared to go every direction, and that makes it very hard right now," said David Berteau, senior adviser and director of the Center for Strategic and International Studies' defense-industrial initiatives group.
Whatever the move -- breaking up a business, divesting a unit or acquiring another firm -- companies are generally trying to focus on the operations they think have the most growth potential, said Michael S. Lewis, director of equity research at Lazard Capital Markets.
"The management teams and the boards have had to take a hard look at their businesses and say, 'Is this in the strategic long-term focus of the firm?' " said Lewis. "We're seeing these types of moves from the largest firms down to smaller companies."
At AAI in Hunt Valley, Md., for instance, owner Textron Systems opted to split the company into three individual pieces: an unmanned aircraft unit; a test and training business; and a services group. Because AAI was already a subsidiary of Textron, giving it access to the company's back-office and corporate resources, the extra AAI headquarters was redundant, said Fred Strader, president and chief executive of Wilmington, Mass.-based Textron Systems.
"What became very obvious to me . . . was we had an extra layer," said Strader, adding that the business units will now be more efficient and able to make decisions more quickly.
The new focus on dealmaking has kept area law firms busy. At Venable, which worked on a high of 16 aerospace, defense and government services deals in 2007, the deal volume slowed in 2008 and 2009. In the second half of 2010, however, the practice completed seven deals.
"It really was crazy," said Joseph C. Schmelter, co-chairman of Venable's government contractor services industry group.
"We're at full capacity with the M&A lawyers" and are now relying on attorneys in other practices to pitch in, he said.
Sarah E. Kahn, a partner at Arnold & Porter who specializes in mergers and acquisitions, said she sees the uptick continuing.
"I don't see this as a particular short-lived thing," Kahn said.
Faced with a weakened commercial market, more private equity firms have thrown their hats into the ring, buying up government and defense contracting businesses.
The increased private equity interest "creates a more competitive market than in the past in the defense and government space," said Peter Manos, a managing partner at private equity firm Arlington Capital Partners, who noted that these investors have in some instances outbid strategic acquirers.
In the end, analysts said, the universe of defense contractors will look different -- but not necessarily smaller.
"It's not as if there appears to be a shrinking pool of defense equities," said Byron Callan, a director at Washington-based investment research firm Capital Alpha Partners. "But maybe the nature and color of those change."
In fact, Thompson noted, he doesn't anticipate a reduction in the number of companies as long as the budget stays steady.
"Most of the big defense companies have been anticipating a downturn in military demand since at least the last decade," he said. "They're surprised that the downturn did not materialize when President Obama took office, and now they're beginning to suspect there won't be a downturn at all."

text: Georgina 32, had been trying unsuccessfully for a baby for nearly four years when she came to us with a view to having IVF treatment. She came for a one-stop fertility test first. She had good egg reserve and her womb lining was good, the only reason for the abnormal finding was that the blood flow to her womb was very low as measured by Doppler scanning. She was given dietary advice and a course of soluble aspirin tablets to improve her blood circulation to the womb. A week later she was scanned again and uterine blood flow had improved enough for her to be advised to try to conceive naturally for a further six months. She did and is now 12 weeks pregnant with twins! Georgina and her husband are delighted that they conceived naturally after the diagnosis and treatment of low blood flow to womb. Thanks to the detailed "One-Stop" Fertility scan. It saved them a lot of trauma and money!

Ferrari 599XX does the Ring
Another week, another 'record' Nurburgring lap time…except this one's different. Cos' it's a Ferrari.
The track-honed pumped up Ferrari 599XX - the inspiration for the GTO - has been thrashed around the legendary 'Ring in a time of just 6m 58.16s, which Fezza reckons is a 'record' for a production-derived sports car.
Bit tenuous, but epic nevertheless. However, Ferrari has also done something Very Good Indeed by filming the lap via an onboard camera.
This is stuff that makes ears worth having. Turn it up and experience a 6-litre V12 being abused.

I've noticed, to my shame, that I've become less patient with people who seem to be thoughtless (at best) or mean (at worst).
The dialog running through my head goes something like this:
"Really? Really?? You HAD to say that? Why not just be NICE? Wouldn't it actually take less energy — and give you a greater emotional reward then spreading your awful attitude??"
Sometimes it isn't something that's said or done, but rather, something that is NOT said or done.
So on today's post, I'm providing my own TOP 10 LIST of ways to be more thoughtful and selfless in 2013. AND!! — this comes to you free of charge.
Some people say it's worth what you pay for it…
- If you're in line at Costco with a flatbed-truckload of crackers and toilet paper, and the person behind you has only loaf of cheese, for crying out loud — let them check out first and be on their way.
- USE YOUR BLINKERS. It's that little lever on your steering column and it prevents accidents. It is also said to greatly reduce the probability of people shaking their fists at you while you stop for apparently NO REASON.
- Smile more. It's that simple.
- If you work in retail, don't spend your time complaining about how loooong your shift is and how badly you want to go home. It's unbecoming.
- Put your ever-loving phone away at gatherings. Remember: you're supposed to be there to interact and build relationships. Facebook is not a relationship.
- Don't be curt in your responses, even if someone asks you a stupid question. You can think it in your head, but sarcasm with strangers doesn't evoke much warmth.
- Say please and thank you. Often. It never goes out of style.
- Compliment your waiter, your child's teacher, and your spouse. It matters.
- Be genuinely interested in the person you're talking to. Remember their name and at least one thing about them so that next time you see them, you can ask about grandma, their job, the dog's surgery, etc. Which brings me to the next natural step:
- Stop blabbing about yourself and ask thoughtful questions of others. It's amazing how much people appreciate this.

That is why I was pleased to support the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act, a bipartisan proposal that increases small businesses' access to capital and removes burdensome regulations. By passing legislation like the JOBS Act, we can make it easier for entrepreneurs and businesses to invest, expand, and create jobs. The bill passed the House and will now be considered in the Senate.
I will continue to support legislation like the JOBS Act that will help create an environment in which job creation is possible and get Americans back to work. I was pleased to see the president support these bills and I encourage him to do the same with the 27 other jobs bills that await action in the Senate.
We have a responsibility to create a pro-growth business environment in this country, and we should take this as an opportunity to work together. I strongly believe we can continue to come together in a bipartisan way to get our country back on track. Last week was a good example of how putting politics aside can benefit the American people.
Please feel free to contact my office if we can be of assistance to you or your family. You can contact my office by mail, email or phone. Our contact information can be found on our website, www.roe.house.gov.

Sky Sports has today announced a new three-year deal to live TV rights to American Football, extending its relationship with the National Football League (NFL) into its 20th year.
The new agreement will bring coverage of more than 60 live games a season to satellite TV viewers in the UK across 2012, 2013 and 2014, including the International Series games at Wembley Stadium in October, the playoffs and the Super Bowl.
Alongside television, the multiplatform deal also includes rights to coverage across mobile, online and tablet devices. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The new season will get under way on Sky with the opening game on Wednesday (September 5) between the Dallas Cowboys and Super Bowl champions, the New York Giants.
In all the next three seasons, Sky will broadcast two live primetime fixtures every Sunday at 6pm and 9.15pm on one of Sky Sports 1, Sky Sports 2 or Sky Sports 3, in both standard and high definition.
The broadcaster will also show three Thanksgiving Day clashes and regular matches on Thursday nights.
For the Playoffs and Super Bowl each season, there will be live coverage of every wild card, divisional and Conference Championship playoff match, plus the annual season ending Super Bowl.
Initial NFL games due to be shown on Sky Sports in 2012 include:
Week 1
Dallas Cowboys at New York Giants, September 5 at midnight on Sky Sports 1
Indianapolis Colts at Chicago Bears, September 9 at 5.30pm on Sky Sports 2
San Francisco 49ers at Green Bay Packers, September 9 at 9.15pm on Sky Sports 2
Week 2
Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers, September 13 at 1am on Sky Sports 1
New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers, September 16 at 5.30pm on Sky Sports 3
Washington Redskins at St Louis Rams, September 16 at 9.15pm on Sky Sports 3
The NFL RedZone score update show will be available every Sunday of the regular season via the Sky red button, and NFL Total Access will air twice a week.
Kevin Cardle will present the Sky Sports NFL coverage, joined by various studio guests throughout the season, including Neil Reynolds and Cecil Martin.
"This new deal is great news for NFL fans in the UK - primetime coverage of two matches on Sunday evenings, RedZone, the International Series and Super Bowl all for the next three years," said Cardle.
"We start our new season with some great games - last season's Super Bowl champions New York Giants at home to the Dallas Cowboys, then the Indianapolis Colts who include No1 draft pick Andrew Luck away to the Chicago Bears, and on the following Thursday we get our first look at the St Louis Rams, who will be coming over to the UK for the International Series in October.
"There are so many ways for NFL fans in the UK to keep up with what's going on, including RedZone during our live match coverage, and fans can let us know what they think about the game using our Twitter page @SkySportsNFL."
Alistair Kirkwood, the managing director of NFL UK, said that he is "delighted" to extend the relationship with Sky into its 20th year.
He added: "Through their coverage the game has attracted many new fans in this country, and we look forward to another three seasons of excellent coverage, including the International Series matches at Wembley and the next three Super Bowls."

In Writing Solid Code, Steve Maguire warns to "fortify your subsystems". This is especially important if your subsystem takes liabilities on other systems.
One of our (CLR debugging teams') most common bugs from Whidbey Beta 2 is a case where we hadn't done this. (For the record, the bug is fixed in the final version of Whidbey) In particular, the CLR debugging services (ICorDebug) expect the CLR loader to notify it of all modules that get loaded. If the loader (due to some bug) didn't notify the debugging services of a module, then ICorDebug gets horribly confused if it later sees code from that module on the stack.
One of the things that would make fortifying this difficult is that you don't realize you hit this problem until it's too late, and then there's not a good fallback behavior. In other words, there's not a good boundary to fortify at. Furthermore, various naive suggestions for what to do when we detect the problem (such as just fabricating a module when you first see it; ignoring frames from unknown modules; etc) all have other problems and really just push the bug around.
The effect of this bug is that you'll get a crash in the debugger process that looks something like this (the frames past the red frames may look different):
00 mscordbi!CordbHashTable::UnsafeGetBase
01 mscordbi!CordbModule::LookupOrCreateFunction
02 mscordbi!CordbFunction::LookupOrCreateFromFuncData
03 mscordbi!CordbThread::RefreshStack
04 mscordbi!CordbThread::FindFrame
05 mscordbi!CordbProcess::DispatchRCEvent
06 mscordbi!CordbRCEventThread::FlushQueuedEvents
07 mscordbi!CordbRCEventThread::HandleRCEvent
08 mscordbi!CordbRCEventThread::ThreadProc
09 mscordbi!CordbRCEventThread::ThreadProc
0a kernel32!BaseThreadStart
We got the relevant parties together to analyze how we got into this trouble. It basically happened when you attached a debugger when a module was in the middle of loading. We wanted to make sure this was just a one-off bug and not some architectural flaw.
The good news is we've since fixed all the issues here with the final Whidbey release. We also came up with an aggressive testing mechanism for this.

Congo: priest attacked by soldiers
A Catholic priest was attacked by security forces in North Kivu, DR Congo on Friday night. Fr Pascal Misugho, vicar of the Visiki parish, in the north-eastern Butembo-Beni diocese was beaten by some soldiers of the regular armed forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC). They also robbed some of his personal belongings, and ransacked the parish building where they found him. Fr Pascal was on a parish mission. He managed to escape from the solders while they were looting the building and is now said to be safe.
The episode comes amid persistent insecurity in the north-east of the country, involving both soldiers and armed groups. Some village leaders of the Lubero territory, also in North Kivu, in the past days denounced an increase in armed robbery attacks against the people of the area. Women and young girls are often raped in the attacks. The wide insecurity jeopardises farming activities, limits health services and increases the number of displaced, the village leaders said in a meeting.

[MobilePRwire.com] Westbury on Trym, Bristol - Estiuka Ltd has released an update for Ringooz, a smart reminder application on Android.
Version 1.1, released on the 21th of May, brings some UI improvements for creating and editing a reminder and some additional bug fixes.
"We have received some user feedbacks about the difficulty to add or edit a Ringoo's option, so we have extended the clickable area to address this issue", said Jonathan Akuitse, founder and lead developer at Estiuka Ltd.
Ringooz still allows you to create reminders by selecting a notification and some options. Currently there are two types of notifications:
* By date, the notification goes off at the date defined.
* By location, the notification goes off when the user is near a location.
* The notifications can be repeated and combined (date and/or location)
For the options, the user can record a voice message, enter a text note or select one or more actions. The actions available include: making a call, sending a text/email, launching the camera, the browser or one of the phone applications.
Ringooz is available on the Google Play Store for free. It requires devices to run Android 2.2 or later.
Ringooz is developed by Estiuka Ltd, an Android development company founded in 2011.
Sending A Press Release Easy & Intuitive

How We Met
It started with me informing God I was perfectly happy being single.
Around the same time, Daylen (my husband-to-be) was telling God the same thing. "Only You, God. No more relationships."
I like to imagine God laughing at us and then scooching us 'coincidentally' onto the same football field.
Yes, my husband and I met on a football field, though we call it the "ultimate frisbee field" since that is why we were there. I currently attended my first semester of graduate school in Missouri where I knew no one. Ultimate frisbee filled my time with potential friends. Daylen, meanwhile, just returned from living in Florida. He played frisbee to reunite with his friends.
I caught his eye during the game, but it wasn't until we played again a week later that he thought, "I'd like to get to know this girl." As the thought crossed his mind, he stopped abruptly in the middle of the field, in the middle of the game–at the 40-yard mark, to be exact–and said out loud, "No. Only You, God."
I'll just say from the start, I spent this entire relationship much slower on the uptake. Those two frisbee nights were monumental for Daylen whereas I just remember a nice guy playing frisbee in jeans with a pulled leg muscle.
We 'coincidentally' happened to both be involved with the Christian Campus House (CCH), attending Wednesday night Bible studies. We 'coincidentally' ran into each other fairly often. And we both 'coincidentally' ended up invited to an exclusive small 6-person overnighter game-night just before Christmas break.
Allow me to step back for a moment and share a clip from a few months earlier (I know, I know, flashbacks are a big no-no in writing, but I'm doing it anyway.) [grin]
The Guy Who Didn't Like My Writing . . . And the Guy Who Did.
I wasn't much of a dater, but I got asked a lot — usually by weird or needy guys. Just before I met Daylen, a different gentleman wanted to date. I was waiting for a good way to say, "No, thank you."
One evening, the topic of writing came up. I was still quite sensitive about my writing at this time, but I took a daring step of courage and let this guy read the synopsis of the fantasy novel I'd spent years writing.
He got half way through it and laughed. A loud 'is-this-a-joke?' laugh. He turned to me and said, "Really?" gesturing to my synopsis, almost as if waiting for me to point and shout, "April Fools! I'm not a silly fantasy writer!"
That's about when I told God I was happy being single. I told that same thing to this gentleman pretty quickly, too.
Now, back to Daylen and the game night (sounds like a middle-grade adventure book title: Daylen and the Game Night.) We all lounged around — the girls off making tea, another friend checking his phone. You get the picture — there was a gaming lull.
Daylen turned to me and said, "So, I noticed you have a blog." Before I could figure out how in the world he even found my little hidden blog, he continued and said, "You're a really good writer." He went on to discuss posts he really liked and how he was amazed I could make a post about a haircut interesting.
Instant approval. The man likes my writing!
The next day, he gave me a ride to the airport so I could fly home to Wyoming for Christmas. At this point, God had given him a very clear, "Go ahead," regarding me after much intense prayer and patience.
On my end…I just needed a ride to the airport.
During the 90 minute drive, we simply talked. About anything and everything. Nothing too deep, just adventures and family, likes and dislikes. But this was the first time in a very long time I felt…safe alone with a guy who wasn't a family member or old friend.
The drive blew me away.
Over Christmas break, I journaled like a school girl about whether or not I would "consider allowing myself to consider attraction to him." (classic over-thinking)
Daylen spent the break praying, reading, and studying how to pursue me in a Godly manner. My date of return — January 9th — was game day. (What a man!)
Game Day
I returned and it started. Slowly. Game nights, sledding, painting parties. Public and group hang-outs, mostly. Then, as if to push us along, God orchestrated completely chance meetings practically every day–just us two. You know when you're attracted to someone and you just hope you'll see them on accident (and us girls often try to orchestrate those "accidents")? Well, God made all those accidents happen. It was like living in a movie.
Daylen would leave me tiny notes clipped to my door, he'd drive an hour and a half to bring me my favorite bubble tea from Kansas City, we'd rock climb together, and–unbeknownst to me–he informed a few of his friends that, "She doesn't know it yet, but I'm going to marry her," only a month after my return!
One day, I just started thinking in terms of "us." Our relationship progressed so naturally, sometimes we'd accidentally let plans slip like, "Someday we should go camping by such-and-such river," which we both knew wouldn't happen unless we got married. Slowly, I knew we were meant to marry each other. I'd never been so sure of anything in my life–and I used to be the girl who laughed at people who said, "I just knew."
Ten months after we met on the frisbee field, Daylen proposed to me on the 40-yard line. "This is where I chose to say 'yes' to God and 'no' to you. In the same way as then," he got on one knee, "I want to pledge my life to saying 'yes' to you and only you, after God. Nadine Shea, will you marry me?"
I said a very romantic, flustered, "Yeah."
We were married four months later.
(And that is another fairytale in itself)

Detailed Directions on how to get to our office
If you're coming from the north (Caloocan, Valenzuela, Bulacan, etc.), ride a bus bound for the south (Alabang, LRT Ayala, MOA, Ortigas). Tell the bus conductor to drop you off at Kamias, it's the junction after GMA Network, Inc. in EDSA. Go to the side of the road where there's a Chowking branch and get on any jeepney that's bound to cross EDSA. We're a few meters away from the traffic light and Metrobank Kamias. Get off the jeepney when you find a 5-storey multi-colored establishment on the left side of the road.
If you're coming from the South (Makati, Mandaluyong, Pasay, etc.) get on a bus bound for the north lane of EDSA, (UE Letre, SM Fairview, Malinta). Tell the bus conductor to drop you off at Kamias. When you get to Cubao, you're near Kamias. After you get off the bus, ride any of the jeepneys in front of Mercury Drug. When you get to the traffic light, we're only a few meters away. Look for the multi-colored 5-storey building on the left side of the road.


text: Take a break from driving. You'll just end up trying a new craft brew, letting off some steam, and forgetting you ever wanted to leave your sterile desert sanctuary. Get where you need to go with a dollar fifty and an ounce of tolerance for your fellow man/woman/transgender breakdancing busker. The whole endeavor may even afford you some time for other soul-reviving activities like gazing blankly at the passing cityscape or reading something other than a script (still called "books," I believe). Lyft and Uber don't count, though they're slightly more soulful than driving alone.

Well it's been a while but that's only because I didn't want to inundate my blog with whiny sounding posts about my anxiety and depression after having some sort of breakdown in June, and as it turns out, I'm still trying to recover from this now in September. I got a job though, in a petrol station. I should rejoice to finally have a permanent job and in an environment that I tend to love, but it feels a little bittersweet as just a couple of weeks ago I was having anxiety attacks rendering me a jibbering mess. I saw my doctor, we changed my meds, they didn't work, we upped the doseage and the anxiety seems to be somewhat under control now. Somewhat. But there's still the depression to deal with and that little voice in my head repeatedly saying, "I want to die. I want to die." And while I don't want to act on it, it terrifies me that it is there at all.
So with that being said, this job. We have to do shifts solo. At first glance, this shouldn't be a problem. The other staff seem to manage. But this means obviously being there to serve customers whether they're buying petrol or other goods, and press the button on the screen to allow the petrol pumps to reset for them. It means cleaning the toilets outside, and the forecourt, taking deliveries of petrol and other goods, putting out the papers and magazines and returning them but making sure this is registered through the picker link (pick-a-link?), cleaning, facing up, going into the stockroom at the back and stocking the shelves, checking fuel levels, temperature checks, date checks, remembering to turn on/off lights, pumps, the alarm, doing safe drops when the till gets too full, there's more but you can imagine how much this worries me. How on earth will I manage to do all of this and be efficient on the till? There were 420 customers through on my first night. It's not a quiet petrol station. Add to this that for some reason when I sweep and/or mop, my back hurts like a bitch and I end up slumped on the counter in a fair amount of pain and THEN have to bring in crates of fruit and veg from outside, I just.. I'm worried. I feel like a deer in the headlights right now. Oh, and of course, we don't get breaks. So on your feet for 8 hours and have to try and squeeze in food between customers. Oy.
I don't know how I'm going to do this without breaking down but we need the money too much and it's not like I have other offers.. Just so unbelievably worried. And already exhausted because I haven't done anything like this sort of work in a year, and back then there was always somebody there so you weren't alone.

Recently, Gremlin has bee following the 'quality rather than quantity' rule, putting a game out only occasionally, but making sure it's absolutely top hole when it's released. Does H.A.T.E. measure up to this rule? You bet it does, it's a real corker.
The scenario is, of course, the usual tosh, 'Galaxy in turmoil... lack of experienced assault personnel... you are needed to repel the hostile alien forces... Go to Stripworld...' you know the sort of thing. But Stripworld here is nothing like the Stripworld you know where! It's a giant runway, where potential Star Fighters must complete their training.
Training consists of travelling along strips, collecting plasma cells which will enable progression to the next level. The cells must first be exposed by blasting their protective shell, and then flown or driven over to collect them. Upon collection, the plasma cell will join the chain of cells already trailing behind your vehicle.
Each time the vehicle is hit, a plasma cell will be destroyed, or a life will be lost if none are being carried. It is important to get as many cells as possible to the end of a level, as the number carried will determine the number of lives with which the next level will be fought. If the end of a level is reached without any being carried, then it's back to the start for another go.
If the final vehicle is destroyed, you'll be moved back to the last strip you completed with lives in hand. For example, if you complete level two with three lives remaining and carrying two cells, you'll begin level three with two lives. If you then lose both lives without completing level three, you'll go back to level two, to use the three lives you had in hand for that level. All clear? Good. It's a bit confusing, but it does mean that each game will last longer, and there's no reaching level nine only to have to go back to level one on losing the last man. So it's dead addictive.
The 3D strip is presented on the screen in then manner of Alien Highway, or Zaxxon. It's made up of stretches of flat terrain, hills and ditches, and the occasional barrier which considerable narrows the track. The diagonal scrolling along the strip is absolutely faultless, and the speed and quality remain constant no matter how many things are on the screen.
The vehicles which you command also echo Zaxxon and Alien Highway. In some of the strips you'll find yourself fighting a tank, and in others, an aeroplane. You'll change from one machine to another each time a level is completed. The aeroplane takes to the skies to avoid enemies, (obviously) but is a lot slower and more cumbersome than the tank. The tank on the other hand is more manoeuvrable, and in addition to straightforward turret firing, can also launch a steady stream of bombs in an arc - ideal for wiping hazards waiting over the next hill.
The type of fighter you're in obviously governs the way in which you'll deal with the nasties ahead of you. If squadrons of aeroplanes are on their way and you're in the plane yourself, size them up and the blast them out of the sky. If you're in the tank though, simply manoeuvre around them.
There are, of course, loads of other hazards to deal with - squadrons of flying lemons(!), various types of surface skimmers, bouncing bombs, floating mines, and worst of all, surface holes that will destroy all your carefully amassed plasma cells. Bigger and more dangerous meanies lie in wait on later levels.
The animation of the various sprites, and their interaction with the scenery, is absolutely spot on, and on a couple of occasions when first playing, I got killed whilst admiring the graphics. Yikes! Loads of attention is also paid to getting the little details right. The way the shadow of the aeroplane rises and falls over the hills and valleys is perfect.
H.A.T.E. is a brill shoot 'em up well worth anyone's best joystick juggling, and with thirty levels for only eight quid, it's excellent value for money. Go sell your granny to buy a copy.

A new arrival will change a town forever.
'FIREFLY SUMMER is warm, humorous, sad and happy. Reading it is a joy' – Irish Independent
In the summer of 1962, an American millionaire arrives in a small, sleepy Irish town with far-reaching consequences.
For the children of the Ryan family, the long hot summers are usually spent playing in the ruins of a large, abandoned house. But when the American, Patrick O'Neill, buys the ruins, dreams are made and broken and secrets which should never be revealed are betrayed.
Firefly Summer tells interlocking stories of love lost and won during four fateful years in the life of a close-knit Irish community.

Save The Date! The 2018 Art Summit will be on Monday, April 16, 2018. Futher Information and event registration coming soon.Citizen Artist Fellows Nominate
Hosted by Yo-Yo Ma
May 6, 2017
The Kennedy Center Arts Summit is an annual spring convening designed to bring thought leaders from the arts and related fields together for conversation and connection. Set to be held in Washington, DC on May 6, 2017, this year's edition of the Summit will examine how arts and culture play a critical role in shaping society, especially through interdisciplinary connections. We'll focus on existing projects and programs that can propel one's thinking towards new ideas and actions, including the leaders we look to for guidance and inspiration. As we explore and investigate these ideas together, we'll also honor President John F. Kennedy's legacy through ideals of courage, service, justice, freedom, and gratitude. The program will serve as a reflection on current and past efforts as well as the launching pad for new collaborations and initiatives among participants.
The Arts Summit is part of JFKC: A Centennial Celebration of John F. Kennedy, inspired by five enduring ideals often ascribed to JFK: Courage, Freedom, Justice, Service, and Gratitude.

The Kennedy Center, a living memorial to President John F. Kennedy, honors our 35th President everyday by uplifting ideals from his legacy (service, justice, freedom, courage, and gratitude) that live through the arts. As part of this celebration of legacy, the Kennedy Center launched the "Citizen Artist Fellow Recognition" in 2016, which celebrates emerging artists across the country who utilize their art form for positive impact on communities.
Through a year-long engagement with the Kennedy Center, Citizen Artist Fellows develop and strengthen connections in their fields, receive opportunities for artistic collaboration and presentation, and gain access to Kennedy Center Staff and Artistic Partners for individual professional development. Our intention is that this Recognition Program takes Kennedy Center Citizen Artist Fellows on a journey of investigation, activation, and participation.
Kennedy Center Citizen Artist Fellows represent the overall diversity of the national audience the Kennedy Center strives to reflect and serve.

text: It's pretty cool to work on any Ferrari. Throw in a one-of-four in British racing green and I get nervous. Then top it off with the only one in the four with black interior. That got my stomach flipping! Yep. You usually see the "F's" in red, yellow, and a few other traditional Ferrari colors but never green. This is the gentleman that owns the ZR-1 and several other rides that I've posted lately. I started by pointing out some damage that had been caused by a rotary during a previous detail. Believe me, he was well aware of it. I could tell this by the way his face turned red! New trim has already been ordered and scheduled for installation. Other than that, it was a typical detail. Tons of swirls caused by the use of a quick detailer and terry towel along with bad wash habits from a Ferrari dealership. Well off to polishing! Detail Description: Exterior with paint correction and protection. Goal: To remove defects (from previous detailing), enhance gloss/depth, and protect. Wash Cycle: Dawn Wash (2 oz. per 2 gallons of water)...rinse. Clayed using Meguiar's Last touch 1:1 Whatever LSP it had on it, it was tough. I ended up spraying Meguiar's APC (10:1) on each panel while washing. This finally broke it down. Only a few areas required fulling claying. Paint Correction Phase 1: Meguiar's 105 via G110 using Meguiar's Yellow 2.0 Polishing Pad (Used LC's 5.5 White Polishing in the smaller areas....hint hint Meguiars!) I had to use 105 by hand with an orange LC hand applicator in the vents. 105 shines when used by hand. Finishes out flawless. A complete wipedown was done using Meguiar's Detailer Line glass cleaner. Paint Correction Phase 2: Meguiar's 205 via G110 using Meguiar's Yellow 2.0 Polishing Pad (LC's White 5.5 Polishing Pad was also used in confined areas) A complete wipedown was done using Meguiar's Detailer Line glass cleaner. Paint Protection: Lusso Oro Paste Wax Wheel Protection: Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Wax Tire Protection: Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel Time accumulated: 7 hours This shot is during the initial rinse. You can see the beading from the previous applied LSP.... Here you can see the clear bra. There was similar protection everywhere on various panels and lights. This why you must tape when you using a polisher.......unless you know exactly what you are doing. With the top down, some of the deeper paint damage showed up. This where the fabric top met the paint. I'm betting that there is a ton of vibrations coming from the engine! There were a few buffer trails here and there. Left over compound/wax in crevices. There was no lack of swirls.... After a few passes of 105. A little marring but a ton better. Something was very strange. There was a lot more swirls on the driver side than the passenger's. There was no evidence of a repaint. This was confirmed by the customer. After some time with 105 and a wipe down.... That's my polishing residue. It was later removed. More before and afters.... The car was re washed and rinsed to remove dust. It was blown dry and waxed. (Sorry for the lack of pictures. Rain was coming.)
