I've just finished creating an index of all my full-length reviews (see tab at the top). Been meaning to do it forever, but somehow my good intentions usually end up losing in the never-ending battle with procrastination. Anyway, it's done now and I hope it's helpful.

Death is to come to everyone!
"It is appointed unto men once to die, and then the judgement"
Whenever, and however people die, whether they be white, black, red, orange, young, old, innocent, guilty, unbelievers and even believers, there are always the athiests who hate the very name of the Savior Jesus Christ and will come out in full force with arrows of hatred spewing out of their mouths blaming Him for all the woes of the world, when in fact all the woes come from sin that is in every one of us.
The muslims believe in Allah but NOT in Jesus Christ!
The word or name "God" is very acceptable world wide, but confess the name of Jesus Christ in a muslim country and watch what happens to your head!
You cannot even pass out gospel tracts in Israel without getting locked up!
God Almighty has given His law and His promises to everyone who will believe on Jesus Christ and His dire warnings to all who will not.
Mock on if you will, it is expected and foretold that this will be so.
It is written in the very Book that this has been and always will be the case until the day that Christ comes.
Peace everyone!
" In Thee O Lord do I put my trust " ~ Psalm 31:1~

I am a bit confused about OData. Is it meant only for "publishing" data to other parties? Or can I use it in my client server application as a data layer.
The case I have is : developing a client-server application for managing some information. The client is a WPF application, the Server is basically Database and a WCF Layer to expose the data to the client. This application is intended for use inside an intranet only.
Is OData a good option to consider in my case or this is not really the situation where OData is designed for?

Cookie Recipe
Just thought I'd share this recipe with all of you.
It originally came from a Wisconsin Electric power Co. cookbook I received when I used to work for the Wis. Natural Gas Co. (back in the olden days when there WAS a WI nat. Gas Co. - I'm really showing my age here).
The recipe is probably 40 years old.
I guarantee you will be a hit with these cookies.
Enjoy making them and sharing them and eating them!
Merry Christmas, everybody!
1 cup butter 3 cups flour
1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder
2 egg yolks ½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla 1/3 cup milk
Cream butter; add sugar gradually. Mix in egg yolks and vanilla; blend in sifted dry ingredients and milk; chill. Roll 1/8 inch thick on well floured canvas; cut with cooky cutters and place on greased cooky sheets. Decorate before baking or frost and decorate when cool. Bake at 350 degrees 8 to 10 minutes. Makes about 5 dozen depending on size.
2 egg whites ¼ cup light corn syrup
2 ½ cups powdered sugar assortment of food colors
Beat egg whites until they hold a soft peak. Add sugar gradually and beat until sugar is dissolved and frosting stands in peaks. Add syrup and beat one minute. Use food coloring to get desired color. Add a few drops of water if a thinner frosting is desired. Keep well covered when not in use.
When I made cutout cookies, I used this recipe, so it is very familiar, and so good.
It was hard keeping the frosting fresh, so we used bowls with plastic covers. My grands are all in late teens, and super health conscious, so I dont do cookies anymore. Sort of miss that fun of frosting with all my little ones.
Must be old. Uncooked eggs as frosting....
Here is a link that might be useful: Raw Eggs and Pasteurization
My mom used to make "cherry winks" every Christmas. Again, it was a 50s recipe from one of the utility companies. they were really tasty, kind of a butter cookie with added nuts and dates, then rolled in crushed corn flakes and topped with marischino cherry. moist and chewey and yummy.
I just might search the web and find the recipe. Thanks for a reminder of old-timey stuff Julie. Pondy
To quote one of the statements in the link you shared:
Raw Egg Whites: Although it is possible for Salmonella to be in both the white and the yolk of the egg, the white does not readily support bacterial growth.
The yolk in the above cookie recipe is added to the cookie dough, and it is baked. The egg white is only in the frosting (uncooked) and plenty of sugar is added. I haven't killed anyone yet, nor has anyone become sick from that recipe. I know it is a very old recipe, but I'm sure if it were unsafe, the general public would have been cautioned not to use it a LONG time ago.
My wife made cherry wink cookies for the first time this year. Used an old Pillsbury cookbook. There are very good.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cherry Winks
I'm sure your cookies are wonderful. I'm not trying to spoil anyones Christmas tradition. I just wanted to warn against consuming raw eggs. A LONG time ago, Salmonella was not a problem INSIDE eggs. It has only recently penetrated the shell. I did not want to let someone make these without knowing some of the risks.

Sundew leaves wont unravel and has no dew
I bought a drosera spatulata (pretty rosette) and it didn't do too well in the mail, of course, because it started to get really cold. When it made it here it was mostly dead with a few greenery left under all of the dead leaves. I cut away all of the dead leaves and dead sundews and now I have a few growing back but the largest one (pretty small) worries me. A leaf or two looks a bit deformed and its been two weeks since it even moved. It looked like it was unraveling and flourishing but that stopped and now its frozen. I try to feed it and nothing happens, I keep the environment moist and warm with a bit of air circulation and even new sundews are growing recently. I'm using a 9-watt light bulb called the Intelligent Plant Light and I keep it about 6 inches from the plant including the cover i use to keep moisture in.
This is it, its little hairs are bent and so is leaves
And this is random tiny growth I'm seeing... Does anyone know what any of this is? Should I try to get rid of it?
What I also need to know is how close should the light be to the plant? Is the plant deformed because it's not getting enough light or is it the environment change? What is making its leaves not unravel/why is it frozen?
This post was edited by callaslily on Fri, Jan 25, 13 at 12:14
I agree with Cody. Drosera Spatulata is a really easy plant. Mine are in a west picture window. Keep it in a water tray with about 3/4" of DISTILLED or RAINWATER only.
The propagate really easy from leaf cuttings, the new plant will come out of the center of the cut leaf.


text: A really cheap source of sulfuric acid is at pool supply stores. It's the acid they use to balance the ph in swimming pools. In other words if you swim in a pool you are swimming in some very dilute acid. In California the last time I bought the acid, it cost me $5 for 2 one gallon jugs. That was in 1999. All you have to do if you want to make sure that it is nuetralized before you dump it is put baking soda in it until it stops fizzing. That was all that was required by law in California before we dumped our acid solutions down the drain after using them in the pickling process for jewelry.

Letter: The right to audit
Harold Hall, Naples
The right to audit
It appears that those county commissioners who are promoters of powerful central county government with no audit of board expenditures have recruited someone to run for clerk of courts against Dwight Brock.
This obviously means they have found someone who agrees with them that the clerk should not audit the board's expenditures.
This attempt, once again, is to eliminate any audit of the board's expenditures by the clerk. Their last attempt was through the courts and cost the taxpayers millions of dollars in legal fees.
They lost. The courts agreed with Brock and the Florida Constitution.
Please be sure to vote before Aug. 14 to retain Dwight Brock and our citizens' right to audit.

⬅ Return to Reproductive Justice and Women's Rights

I do not see where you made it possible for my parents to walk on the Nazi sidewalks of their Nazi Los Angeles neighborhood for 27 years. My parents were allowed to walk on the Nazi sidewalks of Nazi Germany before they were deported to the death camps.

This blog post shows how the ACLU shamelessly ignores Rights of men "to enjoy full and informed control over their reproductive lives ... or to raise the children they have. "
State legislatures are increasingly restricting the rights of fathers to information regarding their reproductive lives, including their rights to access DNA paternity testing.
Furthermore, by ignoring fathers and referring to children as something that mothers "have", the ACLU continues to promote the shameful idea that children are property - possessions belonging to their mothers.
Furthermore, with the lower rates of children born to wedded parents in disadvantaged communities, the ACLU is doing a special disservice to fathers in disadvantaged groups, who are statistically more likely to be given less access to their children or treated unfairly in other ways. For example, in Michigan, African American fathers are only 3/5ths as likely as White Non-Hispanic fathers to receive a recommendation for sole father or joint custody, and they are more likely to have lower incomes subject to historical illegal automatic income imputation.
I urge the ACLU to rethink its non-position on the rights of fathers, and stand up for the rights of all parents "to enjoy full and informed control over their reproductive lives .. or to raise the children they have."
One important law in that regard is the prohibition on politically partisan activity. Given our nonprofit status, we may not endorse or oppose candidates for elective office. That means we cannot host comments on our site that show a preference for one candidate or party. Although we in no way wish to discourage you from that activity elsewhere, we ask that you not engage in that activity on our website (or include links to other websites that do so). Additionally, given that we are subject to very specific rules concerning the collection of personally identifying information through our website (names, email addresses, home address, financial information, etc.), we ask that you not use the comments portion of this blog to solicit this information from users of our website. We also ask that you not use the comments portion for advertising or requests for legal assistance, and do not add to your comment links to other websites, as we cannot be responsible for the content on other websites.
We are not able to respond to unsolicited inquiries, complaints or requests for assistance sent to this blog. Please direct your complaint or request for assistance to the ACLU affiliate in your state. Requests for legal assistance left in the blog comments will not receive a response or be published.
Finally, the ACLU cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any information in the comment section and expressly disclaims any liability for any information in this section.

Terminal Tower
The Terminal Tower was once the tallest building in Cleveland. Today it is dwarfed by newer buildings, but it's still the most recognizable image on the downtown Cleveland skyline. Sitting on the south end of downtown in the center of Public Square, it is still a popular meeting spot that houses one of the area's biggest department stores, a mall, food court, multiple movie theaters, and, of course, the train station. The 52-story building was constructed in 1930, at the time when skyscrapers were in their infancy. The 42nd floor observation deck offers clear views of most of the Cleveland area and, legend has it, Canada on a clear day.

I know it's a very long shot and the problem description is vague at best, but I'm hoping someone might have encountered that as well.
I have a
UIViewController subclass that is being presented modally. The view of the controller contains some
UIButtons and some
UITextFields. The view controller might be presented multiple times during a user session; it is created every time it's presented and gets destroyed when it's dismissed. Most of the time everything works as expected, however, sometimes the text fields don't respond to user touch, i.e. tapping them does not bring up the keyboard. The buttons on the view work fine, it's just the text fields that become disabled.
What could possibly be causing this?

Thickness of shower door glass
Hi all, renovations are toodling along but could use some advice on shower doors. For my master shower I am NOT getting frameless, but rather double sliding doors in a frame, for various reasons. A custom shop is not much more expensive than a home depot and has nicer frames, so I've decided to go with that. I've gotten three quotes from two different contractors, based on glass thickness:
3/16" $525
1/4" $650*
3/8" 850
The middle quote is from a larger company, the first and third are from a glass contractor (recommended by my tile contractor).
I can see from research that 3/8" seems to be standard, and the guy who quoted the 3/16" said it was not what he recommended but wanted to give me that option. but I can't find much opinion on 1/4" glass. Does anyone have any knowledge/experience on this they can share on any of these dimensions?
*Comes with 5yr. warranty and "Free Diamond Fusion Glass Treatment" whatever that is...
I certainly agree that going with a glass shop will provide you with better quality materials than from a box store. That said, any thickness of glass will keep the water contained. 3/8" is the "standard offering" from all shops we priced. The thicker glass will have more weight to slide (roll) nicer. And if you plan to install towel bars the glass will be more substantial.
We recently replaced our shower enclosure. We went with 1/2" on recommendation of the glass shop because ours is semi-frameless (track against one wall and bottom on a "pony wall" because they weren't perfectly plumb/square), has a robe hook drilled through and a 30" door and he felt the less flex from heavier glass would be better. It is substantial and looks so too, we're pleased and it was a $200 upcharge over 3/8".
I suspect the "Free Diamond Fusion Glass Treatment" is to minimize water spotting but you'll still need to squeege following use. We opted not to have ours treated as we are accustomed to drying the glass and understand the treatment wears away with use.
I have bypass sliding doors on a shower and I went with the 3/8" glass. I'm happy I did. The door is very solid and does not rattle at all.
My contractor told me that 1/4" would work fine (my shower is only 48" wide), but the heavier glass would feel more substantial. I decided since I was already spending a boatload for the bathroom to spend the extra $200 and get the heavier glass. My door was a little over $800, so your price quote seems comparable.

"Guadeloupe is a caribbean paradise" Saint-François by Chris_66
Saint-François Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 11 photos
I enjoyed tremendously the typical tropical white, pink and black sand beaches. Beaches at or around St Francois are great but the most beautiful ones are not so far away, at Saint Anne but a bit too much touristy.
Saint Francois has also a few great restaurants: some I liked particularly, the Iguana Cafe, Les Pieds dans l'Eau (feet in the water), Le Raou.
St Francois is also also where you can board the ferry for La Désirade, gorgeous island out of the world.

An Insider's Guide to London Fashion Week AW12
London Fashion Week is held at Somerset House and this is where the cool kids hang out. Even if you don't have a ticket for a show, it's worth a visit, as fashionistas will parade around in fantastic and eccentric attire. Bloggers and street style hunters are scouting for the craziest or most stylish outfit.
London Fashion Week is especially exciting this season as we see international designers such as McQ, Stella McCartney and Moschino Cheap & Chic showing in London. The shows consist of catwalks, presentations and even installations, just to shake it up a bit.
Friday kicked off Fashion Week with a hectic schedule and I was lucky enough to be backstage to see the prepping first hand at Bora Aksu. Models generally arrive a couple of hours before a show starts (unless they're running straight from another show!) and begin preparing their hair and makeup. Teams of makeup artists and hairdressers paint and brush the models until the last possible second. The term 'fashionably late' is no joke, as I don't think I have ever been to one show that has actually started on time! Bora Aksu was a really colorful show, with amazing silks and brocade fabrics.
I managed to grab a quick chat with the British Fashion Council where I learnt that the British fashion industry generates a whopping £20 billion per year to the British economy and employs 800,000 people in the UK, which I think is pretty impressive!
The shows kept coming, with plenty to take in. Felder Felder, German sisters who live in London, exhibited metallics, knits and impressive Aztec prints. Next up was design duo PPQ, a favorite of mine, who had a star-studded front row and a packed show space! The opening had an impressive collection, rich with tweeds, studded gold, velvets, silks and woollens, and included a bit of show with models strolling with bicycles. So a little something for everyone! This was followed by the PPQ party, which is renowned for 'kicking off' London Fashion Week.
Saturday began with a front row ticket at DAKS, which was a very elegant collection! Here we saw stunning silks in bright coral reds that would brighten up any Autumn or Winter wardrobe — a Pips essential! After this I couldn't help but make a quick pit stop at MAC to get an AW12-inspired makeover that included brown eyes and of course lovely berry lips.
Sunday was a big day as the iconic British brand Mulberry showcased their AW12 collection inspired by the playful and fun theme 'Where the Wild Things Are.' The new "it" bag this season is the Del Rey bag, named after new pop sensation Lana Del Rey. The front row was brimming with A-listers and the famous Claridge's Hotel had been made over a la Mulberry, filled with charm balloons and giant monsters.
I was filming in-house for Mulberry, so I managed to grab a few words with the stunning actress Michelle Williams (My Week with Marilyn), who was very excited to be in London for the first time at Fashion Week.
Next up was the Richard Nicoll show, which was a truly innovative experience. Gone was the traditional catwalk and it had been replaced with a new concept — a presentation where the backstage was the front stage. The clothes were hanging on rails for the audience to see and you were even permitted to touch them! Richard was also shooting his AW12 'LOOKBOOK' throughout the five-hour event. The atmosphere was very intimate, almost with more of a party feel for family and friends. It had playful insight into the possibilities of a photo shoot and a catwalk, and a quite unique approach to fashion in general.
After such a busy but fantastic weekend at London Fashion Week, I can't wait to be in Milan with MINI next week to see what new textile discoveries may come. Until then, this is Pips signing off.

"A... more »Polly's Waffle is a comedy show at The New York International Fringe Festival. "A great piece of electro-shock comedy about the twin sins of lust and gluttony. It's a hoot from start to finish; crass, filthy, bawdy and laugh out loud funny." - The West Australian. By Tiffany Barton. Directed by James Winter. Starring Summer Williams and Ian Bolgia Venue 1, The Education & Cultural Center, 107 Suffolk St, (Rivington and Delancey). Tickets: $15 www.fringenyc.org August 14 @ 7.30pm, August 15 @ 7pm, August 17 @ 7pm, August 20 @ 5.30pm and August 22 @ 3.30pm Tiffany Barton, by her own admission the most scandalously talented of all Australia's showbiz exports, presents Polly's Waffle at The New York International Fringe Festival. Polly's Waffle, which comes to New York on the back of sell-out seasons in Perth and Sydney, is edgy, provocative theatre for those who like their entertainment dark and risqué. It is an ultra-black, high-impact comedy dealing with female lust and gluttony. Influenced by post-porn, post-punk, postmodern novelist Kathy Acker and enfant terrible Brit playwright Sarah Kane, it uses explicit language and bawdy humour to explore the link between sexual anorexia and gluttony, and the anorexia and gluttony we more commonly associate with food. Polly (played by Ian Bolgia) is a fat, ugly girl who stuffs herself with food and starves herself of sex. Her sexy, thin flatmate Evelyn (Summer Williams) stuffs herself with sex and starves herself of food. These two polarised women are revolted by each other at the same time as being fused together by their shared pain. As the play progresses, secrets are revealed, insults (and food) hurled, and ultimately the deep, dark forces that drive them are unleashed. The West Australian described Polly's Waffle as "...a great piece of electro-shock black comedy about the twin sins of gluttony and lust, and it's a hoot from start to finish. It's crass, filthy, bawdy and laugh out loud funny." The show is directed by the multi-award winning James Winter.

UNA bets rise in latest SWS poll
More News from Karen Boncocan
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – Team PNoy candidates may have the upper hand in the latest Social Weather Stations [SWS] survey but the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) has all the reason to celebrate as its bet Nancy Binay shot up to the 3rd to 4th spot.
Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero, who is running under Team PNoy, on the other hand slid to the fifth place.
It was not the first time Escudero was pushed from second place but this time he was pushed out of the top three spots in the top 12.
The daughter of Vice President Jejomar Binay and fellow senatorial race neophyte former Las Piñas Representative Cynthia Villar gained 49 percent and rose to 3rd-4th place from their earlier 5th-7th spot.
Meanwhile, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano (52 percent) has once again secured the second spot, following Senator Loren Legarda [59 percent] who has kept a firm grip on first place.
Nine Team PNoy and three UNA bets made it to the Magic 12 in the survey conducted from April 13 to 15 with 1,800 respondents. The survey had a margin of error of +/-2 percent (+/-6 for Metro Manila, North/Central Luzon and Southern Luzon, +/-5 for Visayas, and +/-4 for Mindanao.)
The said survey was conducted in the wake of the controversial clash between Escudero and the parents of his girlfriend, actress Heart Evangelista.
Securing the top nine spots in the list – seven from the administration team and two opposition bets— were declared "safe" by the survey.
Paolo Benigno "Bam" Aquino IV, cousin of President Benigno Aquino III, went up by four spots and secured 6th place with 44 percent.
Both re-electionist Senator Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III and San Juan Representative Joseph Victor "JV" Ejercito Estrada shared the 7th-8th places with 43 percent each.
Pimentel used to be in the 5th-7th places but he dropped four points in the latest survey. Estrada's score, meanwhile, dropped by five points.
Aurora Representative Juan Edgardo "Sonny" Angara [42 percent] took the ninth spot, three spots higher from his earlier 12th place in the previous survey conducted by the same polling firm.
Taking the 10th-11th places were former Movie and Television Review and Classification Board chief Grace Poe-Llamanzares and re-electionist Senator Antonio Trillanes IV, who had 39 percent each.
At the 12th-13th places are opposition candidates Cagayan Representative Juan Ponce "Jack" Enrile Jr. and re-electionist Senator Gregorio "Gringo" Honasan who both received 37 percent.
Enrile rose from 13th-14th place last month but Honasan slipped from his earlier 9th spot.
Former senators Juan Miguel "Migz" Zubiri and Ramon "Jun" Magsaysay Jr. shared the 14th-15th places.
Poe, Trillanes, Enrile, Honasan, Zubiri and Magsaysay were vying for the last three spots in the Magic 12, according to the SWS.
