POSTED: Friday, July 5, 2013 - 1:12pm
UPDATED: Friday, July 5, 2013 - 6:29pm
Tyler, Texas (KETK) — According to the Chapel Hill Fire Department , a house fire has been contained on CR 288, just off of 285, also known as Arp Club Lake Drive.
Dispatch got the call around 12:30 p.m., and when officials arrived, there was heavy smoke in the house causing firemen to battle the blaze from outside.
Arp, Chapel Hill and Whitehouse fire departments were all on scene and it took around 45 minutes to an hour to exringuish the fire.
There were no injuries reported in the fire, but the house was destroyed.
The Smith County Fire Marshal is investigating the fire.

As per the RAW, that is actually true. There's nothing that says you get a feat at level 1 that I can find, other than the "extra feats" chart, which fast feats replaces. Which means at level 1 and 3 you're weaker than you would be otherwise, 5, 6 and 7 the same, and more powerful starting at 8.
Personally, I do what the others do, and ignore that (rather never noticed it, but I'm going to ignore it from now on) and start with 1,2, 4, 6, etc.

All in all, the resort is actually a very nice place.
Food stalls and shops are everywhere around the resort and its only a 10 minute walk to Pasir Ris station (which subsequently is at the end of the east west train line) and a further 20-30 minutes into the centre of Singapore.
Food places are very good and cheap. Rooms are clean and air conditioned which is a must for Singapore. I think that the price is a bit much for a place so far away from the centre of Singapore, but still did the job.
Main downside was that there were heaps of people hanging out in front our room until the early hours of Saturday morning making it hard for my wife to sleep. The resort has a policy whereby they want no significant noise near rooms after 10:30pm however they rarely enforce these rules. It would have been nice so we could have got some sleep.

Aloe cameronii in bloom in May
A shot of some blooming Aloe cameronii in an Oakland garden that had burnt to the ground back in the 1991 Oakland Hills Fire. This clumping spotted Aloe is little seen in Bay Area gardens, but gives a wonderful show in late spring/early summer, and has graceful good looks the rest of the year as well. This group of three is joined by an adjacent Marmalade Bush, Streptosolen jamesonii which continues the bloom color nearly until Christmas. The plantings on this slope are intended to be firesafe low fuel plants with low water needs and year round good looks, and give some interest from views inside the house as well as from the street below. Further up the slope are more Aloe capitata v. quartzicola which bloomed back in February, a specimen white leaved Agave franzosinii, and Leucospermum reflexum, also blooming now.
Here is a link that might be useful: Aloe cameronii and Streptosolen jamesonii
A shot of this Pincushion type Protea in bloom further up the same side yard slope from the Aloe cameronii below it. This species has reflexed flowers that change shape as they age, and can also come in a soft yellow color. The foliage of this shrub is much smaller and softer than the more common L. cordifolium cultivars that are usually seen, and gets to be about 6 to 8 feet tall by across, and blooms for several months in late spring here in the SF Bay Area.
Here is a link that might be useful: Leucospermum reflexum in bloom
Aloe cammeronii is one of-If you only could have one Aloe..IT could be one of the one of's-lol. The one in the photo is treated too well,the ones at UC Berkeley in full southern exposure,fast drainage and kept drier..are a beautiful reddish-purple foliage. Stunners.
My mistake in identifying the Aloe in the pboto, this one is actually Aloe camperi, which has even more beautiful flowers, but the foliage stays green with lots of white spots. The Aloe cameronii up at UCBBG get virtually no water at all to give them that foliage color.

enterprise cloud backup
Enterprise-grade cloud backup solutions typically add essential features such as archiving and disaster recovery to cloud backup solutions. Archiving features help to satisfy an enterprise's legal requirements for data retention, and as part of a company's disaster recovery plan, the remote, off-site storage provided by cloud backup helps ensure the data remains safe should the enterprise's local data be jeopardized by a disaster such as a fire, flood, hacker attack or employee theft.
See cloud backup for a better understanding of this term.

2014's popular passwords show security is still a joke
We should be using crazy-strong passwords, but we're not. With online hacks seemingly making news every other week, companies large and small seeing their systems invaded, and the value of our digital data never more valuable, you'd think the passwords we commonly use would be getting stronger. New research into the most popular passwords discovered among the various leaks over the course of 2014 suggests that taking the simple - and thus easy to guess or brute-force crack - option is still the road most traveled for many netizens, with perennial favorites "123456" and "password" still topping the charts.

This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
Hotel 5 was our home away from home on a recent trip to Seattle. Centrally located, it was a 10 minute walk to Pikes Market or Seattle Center and crawling distance to several great restaurants, pubs and live jazz at Tula's!! Only drawback is the really noisy toilets! Sounds like a rocket taking off. Other than that it is way comfy and totally hip.

The Atkins diet isn't quite as often heard about these days, now that Hoodia and the Acai berry have made their way onto the scene. But some people still treat the Atkins diet as the diet bible, and if you're interested in trying it, you should know the pro's and the con's.
How Do I Use The Weight Watchers Point List?Submitted by Colleen on Tue, 12/29/2009 - 08:04
The Weight Watchers point list has been derided as being too strict by some, but it is a fairly easy tool to use, whether you're eating at home or eating out. With the two plan books (one for restaurants), you can easily see how many points you are eating per day, compared to how many you are allowed.
Even if you decide the Weight Watchers plan isn't for you, you can still use the points system to keep track of where you are and where you want to be. You will learn how to monitor your daily intake, and this helps you become accountable to yourself every day.
The Point list is simple to understand and use. Foods that are low in calories and high in fiber are given low point values. Foods high in calories and low in fiber have higher point values. One treat can really throw you off track, though, so you have to be careful not to "cheat". One Starbuck's muffin may have six to ten points, and that blows your day right there. But if you eat lots of fruits and vegetables instead, those mostly have low points.

You will need to follow not only the rules of the diet plan you select, but also check with the ADA's diabetic food pyramid to make sure you are eating healthy foods that will lower your risk of diabetic complications.

I really had to quit
If an employer has created a hostile work environment you can make that claim. These are tough cases to win. But, if you have any chance of winning you must be prompt in your request for relief. Do not proceed to go this alone. You will need a lawyer to make a hostile work place discrimination case.
I decided to quit when told I'd be fired if I did not resign
If you resigned when you were threatened to be fired or else, then get it in writing that your employer is not letting you go because of "cause" and that your employer will "not dispute unemployment benefits". Without proof that you resigned only to avoid being fired, later your employer will challenge your claim and may come up with some "for cause" argument.
I did not call in but that does not mean I quit
Failure to communicate that you did not come in on a day scheduled for work can be deemed a constructive resignation. More and more, with all the pressures on the system for benefits, not calling in to report a valid absence is being deemed a resignation for which no benefits are awarded.
Retain an attorney
To go through the unemployment benefits appeal process, consider using an attorney for a consultation so you do not forget something or say something that compromises your rights. This is especially true if you are going to make a hostile workplace lawsuit. Good luck.

Hi, I've been working with the Views RSS module, and I've come across something a bit frustrating. If quotes or aposrophes are used in a node title (example: Stanley Kubrick's "2001") the RSS output comes out as this:
Stanley Kubrick#039;s "2001"
Is there a fix for this?
Comment #1maciej.zgadzaj CreditAttribution: maciej.zgadzaj commented
|» Closed (works as designed)
Well, not really - this is an issue with Drupal's
format_xml_elements() function, which Views RSS is using, rather than with Views RSS module - as this function calls
check_plain() on all XML element values. You can see exactly the same thing happening to core Drupal feeds. (Nota bene,
format_rss_item() is doing exactly the same thing.)
Also, even with HTML-encoded quotes in the
<title> elements your feed is still valid (W3C Feed Validator does not return an error, although it suggests not using HTML quotes there).
I am contemplating switching Views RSS to use SimpleXML at one point in the future, until then though you could consider submitting an issue against Drupal core.
Comment #2babbage CreditAttribution: babbage commented
I'm guessing this may be associated with why I am seeing
<h3> tags in my podcast episode titles in iTunes, even though I am instructing the feed to strip html tags?
Edit: Never mind... stupid too-inclusive field theming I'd apparently forgotten about!
Comment #3modestmoes CreditAttribution: modestmoes commented
Comment #4Bensbury CreditAttribution: Bensbury commented
Could you expand on what you do?
Comment #5Bensbury CreditAttribution: Bensbury commented
Here's a fix that appears to work, so if people test it, that'd be great.
It's based on a piece of code a guy wrote to solve the problem in D6 and I've used it on a lot of sites back then.
It's never caused me trouble.
For D7 things changed but here we go:
Go to views_rss/theme and open the theme.inc
Copy out the entire 'function template_preprocess_views_view_views_rss function, and put it in your theme's template.php.
Change the function name to: function yourthemename_precrocess_views_view_views_rss
Then at line 200 in the original theme, or where it reads '// Add XML element(s) to the item array' insert the following just above.
I included the above if statement to help find it.
if (empty($rss_elements)) continue;
// Insert here -- clean up special characters
$rss_elements[0]['value'] = htmlspecialchars_decode(trim(strip_tags(decode_entities( $rss_elements[0]['value'])),"\n\t\r\v\0\x0B\xC2\xA0 "));
$rss_elements[0]['value'] = htmlspecialchars($rss_elements[0]['value'], ENT_COMPAT);
// end of cleaning
// Add XML element(s) to the item array.
$rss_item['value'] = array_merge($rss_item['value'], $rss_elements);
Check your RSS.... you might have to flush the cache a few times.
You can always check it works by hacking the theme.inc file, as I had a bit of trouble getting the theme_hook to work from the template file.
I testing to see how it's working as Twitter and Facebook use the feed to post socially.
Comment #6oceanos CreditAttribution: oceanos commented
I use the views_php module (which I do anyway to construct a language-independent pubDate value on my multilingual site) for the RSS title field and just use str_replace() to solve the problem.
The code for the PHP field value code field is (make sure that you load the node title field, even if you don't use it directly):
return str_replace("&#", "&#", $data->node_title);
Comment #7Sinan Erdem CreditAttribution: Sinan Erdem commented
Is this issue related with: #779760: check_plain runs twice on title ?
Also I cannot see the same behavior on Drupal's default feeds. When I look at the source codes;
Drupal's default feed has
Views RSS's feed has
Comment #8seaneffel CreditAttribution: seaneffel commented
So there's this thing in PHP thats designed encode whacked characters.
I am not a developer and I don't play one on television, but it seems to me that the output of the Views RSS fields could use this to force encoding on quotes, apostrophes, and ampersands.
Comment #9seaneffel CreditAttribution: seaneffel commented
Perhaps the issue is related to the formatting of the fields before they are inserted into the Views RSS display type.
My title fields contain quotes and apostrophes. When I assigned a title field as the title value of the RSS item then the feed displayed poorly encoded quotes and apostrophes. I double checked the field configuration of the title field and saw that it was set to output as "default". When I changed the value of the title field to "plain text" then the characters output in a way that RSS readers could properly display the characters.
I also noticed the automatic preview generated by Views would show bad characters, but the RSS reader I was using parsed the characters correctly.
If this does not resolve the problem then reopen.

Kilimanjaro Safaris
Narrated Ride
Published: February 15, 2015
Think "Jungle Cruise" on land, with fewer corny jokes... and actual live animals. You'll ride in bus-like, open-air, all-terrain vehicles through part of the park's 110-acre Harambe Wildlife Reserve, where you might see up to 34 species of African animals, including rhinos, lions, giraffes, and hippos. Disney has cleverly hidden the barriers that separate most species, allowing your tour to drive through what looks like open African wilderness. Visit early in the morning to see the most action — many of the animals are napping by mid-day.Tweet
After reading some of these reviews I agree with them...
The Safari ride was fast, The animals were... lets say out to lunch.. I rarely saw any moving about.. just a few elephants, and a rhino. a few birds were watching us cruise by... sort of disappointed..
The Jungle Cruise at The Magic Kingdom was better, even though the animals were cement & plaster.. you could at least see them.. :~)
Love it. The ride is nice, rough, and bumpy, and the animals and their environment are top notch. 10/10, especially since they got rid of that ridiculous Little Red/poacher part.
The animals are always great and fun to watch, but the ride suffers from two major flaws. The first is that most of the hosts have no energy. They might as well have the script in their hands. It's become very rare to have a driver who is engaging. The other flaw is the removal of the poachers subplot. The poachers subplot was always fun for me because it added an extra level of depth to the ride. Now it's just a long Jungle Cruise with live animals. I wouldn't dart over to this ride at rope drop, but it's worth riding if you have time.
Love this !!
Our tour guide was terrific. She didn't sound like she was talking from a script. It sounded like she would see an animal, position the vehicle so everyone could see, and then present facts in an interesting way. It seemed to me that she was enjoying herself, the same as me.
I actually rate this safari better than the one at Busch Gardens. More animals to see, and a lot more pictures to take. The area in which the animals live is also much more attractive! A ride that needs to be done first thing in the morning though as many animals find shade when it gets warmer. Brilliant safari that lasts a good amount of time too. A must do for every visit to Animal Kingdom
The bumpiness of this ride is painful. The drivers also go to fast to enjoy the animals and the beautiful environment. Very disappointing for an animal lover.

lol! You know what my little idiot? The response was even directed to YOU!<quoted text>
Then you should have no problem printing it again, boy.
If you want to know exactly why the United States didn't have any foreign intelligence capabilities when Bush took office, search "Clinton CIA human rights purge" then ... don't refuse to read and research.
Here's those facts again, boy:
You need to do some research, boy. It was those very same countries that were giving the United States (Clinton) intelligence on Iraq's WMD programs so the UN sanctions would remain in place so Saddam Hussien could continue stealing all the money from the UN's oil-for-food scam and pay those same countries to rebuild his infrastructure for war.
Those countries didn't change their story just because the United States elected another president.
Bush put a stop to that bullshit, didn't he?
Mission accomplished.
So really, your failure to get the message was simply your idiocy and inability to read and comprehend.
It's is great how you right wing nuts rely so heavily on non cons to keep you going straight?
But don't thank me. The comedy you provide is entertaining enough!

Just doesn't work anymore
We've been using iMovie for a few years now. We used to be able to DL movies from our Canon ZR930 (old school, I know…). We were also able to break raw video into clips, trim the clips, move them around and export the finished video. iMovie now lets us import and it appears to allow us to edit the clips, but we can no longer export the video. We can't even get the video to render into iMovies' theater. We get this error: "Video rendering error: -50".
We used to really like this program. Now it is useless. It simply doesn't even do what it used to be able to do. It has gone the way of too many other Apple apps - untested, non-working and useless. Run a search through the support forums and you'll find that Apple has not only ignored the reviewers begging for help, but has also ignored everyone else who is asking for help. Sad. Don't waste your time or money on this albatross.
Useless after upgrade; at least it worked before
before I did the update on March 10th, 2015, iMovie worked alright. It would crash SOMETIMES, but it was manageable. I got myself a new digital camera with 4K movie capabilities and surprisingly, iMovie was able to process the 4K. If I understand it right, it did "down step" it to less than 4K without much loss to quality, which was fine when watching on PC. No need for a 4K converter. The 4K movies would buffer however. Let me say that my iMac is from Mid-2011 but I upgraded to 20MB of memory, having OS Yosemite.
well, after March 10th, 2015, after upgrading to iMovie 10.0.7., it doesn't open anymore. Well, what am I supposed to do???
Now I am looking at other video editing tools like Adobe Premiere. I am really fed up with iMovie, especially since it is all up to us users to troubleshoot. My computer is long out of warranty and I cannot call and ask without being charged. I am wondering if I ever should update ANY of those updates. Or, if I do, wait until the consensus it out from the general public, research all the reviews, and then update.
Version 10.0.7 doesn't work
After installing the updated IMovie 10.0.7, i've been unable to create any movies. After importing the unedited video and begin a project, IMovie quits unexpectedly. I'm using IMovie on a 27 inch Mac with 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7 running OS X Yosemite. The prior version of IMovie and running the OS X operating system worked great. My big mistake was updating operating system and IMovie as the two don't work together. I spent an hour on the phone with Apple Support who were terrific at trying to assist. They walked me through creating a new IMovie library to import video into and had me re-load my operating system and IMovie still doesn't work. I'm at a loss, any assistance would be great.

I bought the airstone with regulator kit @ my LHBS. They told me I could find the tanks @ Home Depot but I went there and they say they dont sell em. Where else could I try?
Hooray Beer!
HD has 'em... go back and ask someone that knows what the hell they're talking about.
Or go to Lowes.
I knew it. I asked this dude and he didnt know, so he got on his little radio and asked someone else. " No we dont sell em, all we sell is propane." I had a feeling these morons didnt know anything so I asked a guy who looked like he knew what he was doing and he said no too. Where do they stock them in the store?
Right by the propane and the torches....
I couldn't find it on the HD website, though I know they have them in the stores. Here's a link to what Lowe's has:http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...343&lpage=none
And here's the pic of what you're after:
Sweet. I knew they had to have em I was just in a hurry. Thanks for the info guys
Almost any hardware store will have them as well. Ace or True Value, I like them better than the big box store because the employees will know what they have in the store.
+1234 to the above advice.
My favorite hardware store isn't a big box, and has been around for years. They have just about everything, but you have to know where it is to find it.
When I send people there, I tell them: "Go to A+A Trading Post. Go inside, find the oldest guy you can, and ask him how to do xyz." They always come back with what they need.
A good hardware store with knowledgable people is an indispensible part of life.
BJ, Depending on your budget you could go with a 20 cf cylinder ($60-$80) and regulator ($50-$75) from a welding distributor. When it's empty you can have it refilled for $15-$20. If you look @ my gallery you can take a look @ my set-up. Good luck.

The just-drinks interview - Cooley Distillery
While growth in Irish whiskey has been fostered by Pernod Ricard and latterly Diageo, the category's progress has also allowed independent producer Cooley Distillery to expand. In this month's just-drinks interview, Cooley's founder and chairman, John Teeling, talks with Olly Wehring about living in the shadow of the world's two largest spirits companies, and the options facing Cooley as it bids to progress to the next level in the world whisky market.

Thanks Nut and Busy. Perhaps she could sandwich the Lonicera in between some other things to distract from the messy look in Summer? I was thinking the Skimmia and Sarcococca could go nearer the tree where it's more dry and shady.
My Mum has requested a shrub for her Birthday (end Nov) to go in a new border in her North facing clay front garden. She doesn't want anything that will take much maintenance or grow too large as she doesn't like working out the front much. She specified, low maintenance, flowers, maybe scent (she doesn't want much)! It might also get quite dry because she has a large Sorbus and some other shrubs there already.
I have ordered her these:
Skimmia japonica subsp. reevesiana(skimmia (berry-bearing)
Lonicera × purpusii 'Winter Beauty'(winter honeysuckle)
Sarcococca confusa(sweet box)
Does anyone have these shrubs already and can you give me any advice on care/maintenance. If any are really unsuitable I can just pop them in my garden!
Good to know Bob. I live in Leicestershire and we're on clay and I have three Callicarpa 'Profusion' on order so I'll plant them in full sun and hope for the best.
To ensure high quality of provision in Forest Schools, accredited training is vital. The Open College Network (OCN) provides 3 levels of Forest Schools accreditation:
• OCN Level 1 – Introduction to Forest School: An introduction to Forest School for practitioners wanting to support an existing Forest School or gain confidence and skills in working outdoors with children within their own setting.
• OCN Level 2 – Assistant Forest School Practitioner: An award for practitioners regularly assisting a Forest School Leader.
• OCN Level 3 – Forest School Practitioners Award: Qualification to become a Forest School Leader, enabling them to run a 'Forest School'.
It is false advertising if no one has the proper training. It's like if I went out and bought myself a stethoscope and lab coat and called myself a doctor. It belittles the time, money and work that went into getting the qualification. My son's nursery claim to teach Forest School despite them just having had an introductory session, it's not fair on people who genuinely have the qualification or those trainers that make a living out of teaching it. If the school is serious about this then they should invest on sending him on the training and do it properly.
I'm Forest School trained and you should have had the course if you are claiming to teach it in your school the proper training costs about £3000! If none of you have trained as a Forest School leader then what you are doing is 'outside learning'. It strikes me you wouldn't be asking if you'd had the training.

I have had the same problem and found they just pooed through the mesh or found a space amongst the sticks. I like the green manure idea because it means you're making good use of the planter over winter and it will stop nutrients being washed out and add them back in ready for re-planting. Citrus peeling are meant to be good too I hear.
Viburnum beetle is also shiny green artjak.
Have they got a skinny green body and long wings? If so could be lacewings like Dove says. I found one today hiding under my mealworm tub.

This cozy drink has everything you love about S'mores. Its combination of cocoa and chocolate makes it super rich and thick. Halving the graham cracker lengthwise can be tricky, so if you prefer, just serve the cracker with the hot chocolate and dunk it as you drink.
