I am in Michigan. My wife had an affair less than 2 years ago
Resolved Question:
I am in Michigan. My wife had an affair less than 2 years ago and has been planning for divorce ever since. We are going through the divorce and fighting for custody of our 13 and 16 year old. They've tried accusing me of everything from
domestic violence
. Now they are attacking the fact that i work 2nd shift. The temporary order hearing ruled that I move out and gave her full
temporary custody
with me seeing my kids for only 11 hours once a week. They stated that I am unable to care for my kids during the "crucial time between 4 and 8 pm". This was the statement of the FOC worker and supported by the judge. I've always been a good father. Why am I be punished for the hours that I work while the person causing all the heartache is rewarded? Is this even legal?

Hello, my name is XXXXX XXXXX X am a licensed attorney. Thank you for your question. Keeping in mind that I have only a small snapshot of your case, I am probably not in a position to attack or defend the court's decision in your case, but I can speculate. I doubt that the court thinks it is punishing you for anything at all. I understand that it feels like punishment (if you were being punished, the outcome might not be any different), but you have to remember that custody is determined based on the best interests of the children. The court has a lot of discretion when deciding what is in the children's best interests. Again, I don't know the details of your case, but if the kids are in school all day and if you aren't home from 4 to 8pm, there's minimal actual time that you would spend with the kids during their waking hours--perhaps from 8 pm until their bedtime, which might be two hours or less for the typical family. It's not difficult to understand that a court might put the kids in the care of a parent simply because that parent is available for most of their home hours. Still speculating, it probably wouldn't matter whether you were an alcoholic or a violent person, nor would it matter if you were a good parent during the time that you spend with your kids--if you're not there, and the other parent is, it would normally make sense to place the kids with that parent.
Is your wife a terrible person? Yes. But you can be a terrible person and still be a competent parent. If the court is saying that it's order is based on your availability, then you would typically need to look at how to increase your availability if you wanted to get more custody time.
Custody orders can be modified when there is a material change in circumstances.
Let me know if further clarification is needed. Thanks.

Want to work from home but not sure what you can do? The Hot Home Business Directory helps you find a businesses to run out of your home, lists the skills you need to do it and tells how to get started and where to get more information. Read on to find out if this Hot Home Biz is for you!
What You'll Do:
Create and market crafts in one or more specialties (for example, quilting, candle or soap making, ceramics, decoupage, jewelry, basketry) or represent other craftspeople on a commission basis.
Skills You'll Need:
Talent at your particular craft, creative marketing ideas, confidence to push your goods.
Equipment You'll Need:
- Supplies for your particular craft
- Packaging materials (shopping bags, tissue paper, boxes, cartons and so on)
- Letterhead, envelopes and business cards
- A computer and printer to make fliers, invoices, labels and similar materials
- A Website if you plan to market your crafts online
Startup Costs:
About $500 up to $1,000 (excluding the cost of a computer) to cover initial supplies and marketing materials (business cards, letterhead, fliers, classified ads).
How much can you make?
Price crafts to make a profit. The general rule of thumb for figuring out pricing is to add up your material costs for each item and mark it up three times for retail sale and two times for wholesale vendors.
Take into account the time you spend getting supplies, creating the crafts, packaging them and shipping. To make sure you're pricing your items competitively, shop around and compare prices in stores, at craft fairs and with online vendors.
How to Break In:
- Surf the Web for suppliers, crafters malls, online crafting communities, craft fairs and marketing ideas. (See resources below).
- Develop a small inventory of "samples" to have on hand and show around. Take photos of your samples to use in promotional materials such as brochures and fliers or to scan for use on the Web.
- Decide where to target your sales. Crafters have a range of options, including:
- Home parties (like Pampered Chef or Tupperware parties): These can be arranged in private homes, retirement communities, schools, trailer parks and offices.
- Flea markets and festivals: These usually require a low entrance fee and are especially popular during the spring, summer and fall.
- Fairs and shows: Outdoors or indoors, these usually demand a higher entrance fee but attract better goods and bigger spenders.
- Internet marketing: You can build your own Website, join an online crafters mall or Web ring (iVillage has those) or have an online retailer sell your items. At Creativity Zone, a work-from-home mom represents several skilled artisans and crafters.
- Brick-and-mortar stores: Shops that specialize in gifts or handcrafts, museum stores and florists are just a few possibilities. You sell to them wholesale or on consignment.
- Apply for a sales tax number from the tax department in your state. This number is necessary to sell at craft shows and other venues and will allow you to purchase supplies wholesale. You may also want to apply for a merchant credit card.
Resources: iVillage's Crafter's Home Business message board Crafter.com: wholesale source for supplies, information on shows and articles Crafters Network: 100 top crafter sites and free classified ads for crafters Crafts Search: resource for fairs, supplies, crafters communities, Websites and more Craftville.com: listing of fairs all over the U.S. TargetCrafts: free classified ads for crafters and banner exchanges on crafts sites

U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., made the following statement regarding the president's speech today on our nation's fiscal challenges:
"For the past 10 years, economic growth has been at 2 percent or less. Our debt is nearly $17 trillion, and nothing we did last night addressed our deficit spending. Americans have demanded that leaders in both parties make the necessary changes to put our nation on track to sustained economic growth and real job creation. These choices may not be ones we would like to make, but ones we must make — now. Bowles-Simpson laid out a straightforward approach to addressing our nation's enormous fiscal challenges. With spending levels lowered through sequestration, we can now focus on reforming entitlements, simplifying the tax code to lower rates and invigorating the economy. It is time to look beyond the recent short-term debates and embrace a comprehensive, balanced plan that will restore America to economic greatness."

Funny thing is, in the beginning, I thought she was guilty, too. Until I started reading the docs, STARTING with the entire sniffer test results, which proved nothing.<quoted text>
No, it isn't enough.
Four plus years on and you are still unable to comprehend that direct and circumstantial evidence are treated the same.
Casey lied and murdered and therefore brought on ALL her legal problems herself. Casey didn't support herself (or daughter), sponged off of her family, and stole from others prior to killing Caylee. Why would you think Casey's behaviors would be different now?
Give me one case where someone murders someone, leaves not one shred of evidence behind, yet the best they can come up with for a story is, the fictional nanny took her.
You seem to hate her for her lifestyle more than you can find any proof she committed a crime.
I find it shameful that she is still be persecuted today, when so many children have been abused, tortured, starved, and killed by a parent and no one bothers to mention their names......I truly just don't get it.

Cloud Integration Triggers Familiar Headaches
- 18 May, 2010 04:33
There is a wary sense of deja vu among CIOs when the talk turns to cloud. Having bought a boatload of half-baked products over the years, experienced technology leaders are not easily impressed by the Next Big Thing.
With outsized hype but only modest deliveries so far, cloud computing promises to move applications and systems around to whatever locations and platforms make the most business sense. Already it's widely accepted as a fundamental, long-term shift in how IT will be delivered in the future.
Yet as our cover story ( "Clash of the Clouds,") explains, there are big hurdles to clear before we stroll through the heavenly cloud gates. Those include a lack of standards, vendor lock-in and uncertainty around network uptime, security and data access. The biggest worries of all are centered on what one CIO friend calls "The dreaded 'I' word: Integration."
Nowhere is the picture murkier than around integration of cloud services. It's safe to say no large company will outsource everything to the cloud, and even midsize firms aren't likely to end up with 100 percent cloud-provided IT for quite a while. So hybrid models of on-premise and off-premise corporate systems will need to flourish.
As CIO Ken Harris of Shaklee points out in our story, integration capabilities are the key to any cloud vendor's future prosperity. "They don't have an effective business model if they can't rapidly and conveniently connect with customers' on-premise systems," he says.
Shaklee already runs several software-as-a-service applications and has invested in third-party tools to integrate those systems. "I'd have to integrate them even if they were internal," Harris notes, but the difference with cloud-based technologies is that off-site systems add in a network reliability element beyond the CIO's control.
The inner workings of cloud providers can pose another sort of problem when they cloak themselves in mystery, adds CTO Marty Colburn of Finra (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority). In looking to move his e-mail systems to a cloud vendor, he was frustrated by one vendor's refusal to reveal details about its own architecture. Still another tricky aspect of cloud is its potential to fuel a new kind of "shadow IT," where users armed with corporate credit cards can easily set up systems without you knowing.
For a thorough exploration of all these cloud hurdles-and a look at how your colleagues are clearing them-check out our story. And let us hear from you about the impact of cloud on your business.

Two years after implementing a managed care Medicaid delivery system, Gov. Steve Beshear says complaints from medical providers about overdue accounts were overstated or have largely been resolved and the program is on track to save $1.3 billion.
In November 2011 Kentucky faced a Medicaid shortfall of $142.4 million and Beshear ordered moving 560,000 Medicaid patients from a fee-for-service model to a managed care system where companies bid for the right to serve patients at a per-person annual cost while offering more preventive services to hold down long-term costs.
Critics said the administration tried to make the change too quickly and almost from the beginning, medical providers — hospitals, pharmacies and others — complained the Managed Care Organizations that won the bids to manage the system were slow to pay for medical services.
On Thursday, Beshear conceded the change was rapid.
"That's probably true. We did do it quickly," Beshear said. "Why? Because we had to," referring to the $142.4 billion shortfall. The only alternative, he said, would have been to cut provider rates by 30 percent and to cut services to patients.
But last April in the face of provider complaints and howls from legislators, Beshear developed an action plan to investigate and respond to the complaints. On Thursday, he said most of those issues have been resolved and the state is on track to save $1.3 billion.
"There will still be a few — be they hospitals or individual medical providers — who will say the program doesn't work, but it's tough to refute the facts," Beshear said. The days when medical providers made more money by performing more services and charging fees for each are over, he added.
"We expect more from our tax dollars, and we expect meaningful health management, not just disconnected treatment," Beshear said.
Part of Beshear's plan was to have the Department of Insurance which regulates private insurance companies investigate and review complaints.
He said Thursday that DOI received 1,935 complaints about MCO late payments or denial of payment and 67 percent are either closed or nearly closed, usually after 45 days. Only 41 percent of the complaints were found to be justified, he said. Still, DOI has recovered $233,518 from MCOs in the form of payments to providers of disputed claims.
In total, hospitals claimed $346.6 million of accounts receivable from the MCOs, but after meetings in which both providers and MCOs reviewed all claims, only 2 percent of that amount — $7 million — was actually owed to the hospitals.
"They know full well they won't get that billed amount — they never have, even before managed care" Beshear said. "So for them to continue to use these figures as money they are owed is disingenuous at best and at worst downright deceptive."
Of the remaining amount, some bills had been double-submitted, some listed the full amount when it had been partially paid, and many were the total amount billed by the provider rather than the contracted amount it had agreed to accept from the MCOs. (This is similar to private insurance where a covered patient may receive a bill from the hospital for an amount much larger than it has agreed to accept from the insurance company.)
As an example, Beshear said Murray-Caldwell Hospital in western Kentucky reported overdue bills of $2,238,635 to its MCO, Wellcare. But under the old, fee-for-service model, the state would have paid only 22 cents on the dollar for those claims. The best the hospital would have been paid under the old system, Beshear said, was $272,000.
But Wellcare paid the hospital $288,886 for the claims while an additional $44,000 in claims was never submitted.
"We didn't take sides in this," Beshear said. "We put the MCOs under the microscope, too."
DOI performed a type of performance audit of the MCOs which identified several common concerns including billing errors which the examination found MCOs did not adequately explain to providers. As a result the state sent two of the MCOs, Wellcare and Coventry, corrective action plans to address those problems.
"These are not unusual concerns," said DOI Commissioner Sharon Clark. "The findings are not out of the ordinary compared to the private market."
Beshear has been meeting with lawmakers, sharing his findings and he said Thursday, "I think they are a lot more comfortable that the system is working."
He said the managed care system has reduced the number of emergency room visits by Medicaid patients, the most expensive form of health care and a large problem in Kentucky and has increased the number of preventive services to Medicaid patients.
Flu vaccines for children are up by a third, and there have been dramatic increases in smoking cessation consultations, mammograms, heart problem screenings, and a decrease in amputations and CT scans. In short, Beshear said, Medicaid patients are healthier and the state has spent less money for their care under managed care.
Michael Rust, president of the Kentucky Hospital Association, said, "We know managed care is here to stay. But what we're looking for is to make the system work. There are some remaining issues, particularly with some of the older outstanding claims, that we would like to work out."

I defined nautilus actions to open files using sublime. This works quite well with local files/folders, but nothing happens for the SFTP folders/files while the options do come.
This is what I set:
Path: path to sublime executable
Parameters are: %F
Working directory says: %d
I repeated the same with gedit
, and same behavior is observed so fault at nautilus-actions
is much more likely.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 39
Rated 5 out of 5 by Traveler1948 Great convention hotel
Great location connected to convention center and downtown activities. Pleasant staff.
February 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by BLopez Great Location But Average Service
My stay at the Sheraton was quite pleasant overall. I checked in around 1 AM after driving six hours from Columbia, MO. When I arrived I was upgraded to lounge access room on the 19th floor because of my SPG Gold status which included 4 PM late check out (or so I was told). The view from the top floor was very nice with in my corner room facing southwest. The pyramid and the memphis skyline as well as the Mississippi was amazing to se that high up. My only problem is that I had a 4 PM late check out with my stay and when I returned to my room around 2 PM my key would not let me up to the 19th floor. I went to the front desk and apparently the man that checked me in initially didn't add my Gold perks to my stay so my key deactivated at 1200. This was corrected promptly by the afternoon staff and luckily none of my possessions were tampered with in the room. Overall the location and the service was nice and I will definitely be staying here again.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Michelle920 Housekeeping needs improvements
Housekeeping needs serious improvements. Only received 1 set of towels and no bathmat was left, had to call and request towels each day. 2 lights were burnt out in bathroom, I informed the housekeeping staff of this but it was still not fixed after 4 days. The comforter was dirty upon check in so also had to call on that. The alarm clock went off at 4 am our first night which woke us up, I think the clocks should be cleared after guests check out. Upon check in the clerk did not give out any information as to how to connect to internet, nor any information about the hotel facilities, I asked to double check my SPG account was linked and it seemed like it was a hassle for her to check, she did inform us the hotel was under construction so there was no pool which was a huge dissapointment as it was not noted anywhere on the webstie nor the confiratmion email I received. My stay was not a complete dissapointment the Valet "Chris" was AWESOME! as was the concierge staff. They were very friendly and did an awesome job on customer service, they were very informative on local attractions and suggestions. Besides the room/housekeeping issues it was a wonderful stay.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Shadow4 Downtown, but only valet parking
Nice staff and conveniently located hotel. The valet parking is outrageously expensive. I was traveling and had a U-haul and they couldn't park it for me, which is understandable, but they could provide some self parking so that people don't have to pay $22 a night just to park their cars. I ended up parking the vehicle MYSELF in the outside parking lot that isn't very secure and they still ended up making me pay $22 even though no services were provided to me.

Rated 3 out of 5 by DAMCL Business trip
4 nights planned but due to airlines canceling a flight I was stranded at my connector city. When I called to alert hotel was told I'd still be responsible for first night.
Upon check in the next afternoon I explained to the front desk my situation and was not charged for missed night.
Room appeared clean . When my colleague pulled down her comforter there was a dead bug there. We promptly inspected each bed.
Beds were comfortable but walls very thin.could here neighbors conversing at 2:30 a.m. And then a crew of partiers arrive in at 5a.m.
The second day of our stay we left for conference at 6:45 arrived back at 5:30 and room still was not clean. Left for dinner noted some rooms were being cleaned still so did not mention it to staff. When we returned at 10pm to unmade beds but linens in bathroom were refreshed . We dealt with it.
The next morning I used a towel that clearly was not washed I checked another and it was stained pretty bad.Had what looked like lipstick on it.....not a color that either traveler used.
We were checking out and I did mention it to front desk who apologized and assured me it'd be looked into.
Everyone was more than friendly and location was perfect for conference at St Jude's and within walking distance to downtown as well.
I was surprised to occur the issues that affected room cleanliness, as normally Sheratons are very clean. I know it was a high volume time but not really acceptable.

Rated 3 out of 5 by jsandyman Good experience, but.....
Second time to visit this Hotel. Experience was fine. However, there was a spider in the bathroom that freaked my child out a little bit. Disposed off down the toilet. Charged for parking at $22 eventhough we did not use it. Not sure how this happened. Called to asked them to take it off. Was told someone would call me back. Not sure why I needed a phone call back. I called them and expected to be resolved with that phone call. No one called me back. Called second time as card was processed for full amount including parking. Was told a Mr. Wright was supposed to have called me. To date, he has not. Carol, whom seemed very disinterested and failed to apologize during both phone calls, told me they would take it off and that it would take several days. Not sure why it would not have been taken off after first call. Additionally, on my hotel bill it lists the site to reveiw the Hotel. You click on it and it takes you to their review site. However, no Hotels in Memphis are listed in the drop down. I went to the Starwood site to try and reveiw. It only listed the Four Corners property and the Westin. After my frustration of spending that much time on this was growing, I tried the Downtown Memphis hotel website. Finally a chance to tell my story. Not sure why this property is hard to find and review. Overall, my stay was fine. Front Desk staff was great eventhough it was extremely busy. This Hotel suited my needs and I will use again. If it weren't for the billing issue, I would not have felt compelled to tell my story.

Pacific Heights
Pacific Heights homes deliver commanding views of the San Francisco Bay and the city below with neighborhood hills rising from the Marina and running along an east-west ridge between the Presidio and Van Ness avenue. When Hollywood wants to film a chase scene, Pacific Heights is where they come for cinematic thrills.
Some of the oldest, grandest, and largest homes in the city can be found in Pacific Heights which features ample stock of Victorians, Edwardians, Mission Revival and homes in the style of French Chateaus. This is an affluent neighborhood, home to large, quiet consulates of Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Russia. Some of these former baronial mansions now serve as elite private schools. These include San Francisco High School, Drew School, Town School For Boys, Convent of the Sacred Heart (in the former Flood Mansion), and Stuart Hall High School.
Those lucky enough to live in Pacific Heights homes enjoy gorgeous parks, playgrounds, and, bounded by the Presidio, easy access to open space, and miles of hiking, running and biking. The main shopping district can be found on Fillmore Street, which runs north and south through Pacific Heights. Some of the chicest boutiques, choicest restaurants, one of a kind floral arrangements, patisseries, and designer yogurt can be found on Fillmore Street.

Oct 18, 2013Tim Hortons is a mix of McDonalds and Starbucks mixed in together, but better. It's a beloved Canadian institution and is popular place to get coffee and a breakfast sandwich. When I was in Vancouver, I stopped by Tim Hortons several times because I couldn't get enough of their coffee and breakfast.
- Tim Hortons - VancouverAmbassadorBecky MahanMember ofStudentsBackpackersOct 27, 2012
I was told by my Canadian-college-going friend that I simply must have Tim Horton's when I visited Vancouver. I remembered her advice, and during my quick weekend jaunt in the city, I dragged my Japanese and Norwegian travel partners there so the three of us could try what I had been told was a staple in Canadian coffee culture. I admit: I purchased the souvenir cup in order to get it filled with free joe at our visit, and cheesily trotted down the street with it. My most memorable moment was when, after waiting 10 minutes for the steaming java to cool in the 40-degree morning, I attempted to sip, burned my tongue, and spat it out on the street corner in surprise. My friends laughed until they cried, and to this day I am ribbed as the quintessential rude American: I even spit on the streets of foreign countries when I visit.

Jul 11, 2012I was in line up a short time ago at this Tim Hortons. While patiently waiting my turn, I noticed this homeless guy pick up several condiments and then proceed to demand free coffee from the counter person. The guy must have been a "regular" who had worn out his welcome, as she kindly but firmly asked him leave (again). He then muttered some profanity and started to turn around.
At that point, the guy in front of me speaks up and confronts him: "Excuse Me! Did you just call her a f*cking bitch? I think you should apologize!" And after a little more grumbling, he muttered "I'm sorry" and beat a hasty retreat.
That Tim's moment elicited a round of applause and an urban lesson on how courtesy sometimes needs to be shouted out (safely).

When I do this, I get the following exception: The DELETE statement conflicted with the SAME TABLE REFERENCE constraint "FK_calculations_calculations". The conflict occurred in database "DesignDb", table "dbo.Calculation", column 'CalcParentId'. The statement has been terminated.
I suspect that the trigger isn't triggered...
Is this the case, or could it be something else?

Rangers Are 2nd Most Valuable Franchise in NHL
Written by Kevin on .
Yesterday, Forbes released their annual NHL's most valuable teams list and the Rangers found themselves ranked 2nd only to the Toronto Maple Leafs...
2. New York Rangers
Current value: $850 mil.
Revenue 2012-13: $131 mil.
Operating income 2012-13: $27.3 mil.
The Rangers moved into the fully-transformed Madison Square Garden at the beginning of the 2013-14 season and generate more revenue from premium seating than any other NHL team.
...if anyone still wonders why Glen Sather continues to be employed by the Rangers, there you go. Sure the Blueshirts have made only one real serious run at the Cup during his 13 years as GM, but as long as the moves he makes keeps the seats filled, especially those premium ones, the Dolans will be more than happy with Sather's job performance.
...and all of us who complain about ticket prices, need to stop blaming Dolan and look in the mirror, because maybe, just maybe, if we weren't purchasing these overpriced tickets and $20 beers the Rangers might respond by lowering prices. While the Rangers are a passion for us, they're nothing more than a business to him. Once the cash stops coming in, and only then, will prices start to fall.
The failures and decline of Gabby, Richards, Boyle, MDZ, Girardi, etc are not Sathers fault.
Get rid of Sather?do u like mcTruck? Was Sather who got him..like almost making to finals... Guess who put team together.... Glen Sather!!!
I agree that as long as the fans are willing to pay, the team has a right to charge whatever they feel they can get, but unless we've got a bunch CEOs and Investment Bankers trolling the blog, I don't think the "Fans" have anything to do with the return on investment for premium seating and high ticket prices.
I have the utmost respect for anyone who finds themselves lucky and fortunate enough to have the disposable income to afford season tickets for the team they love. I certainly wish I did, and wouldn't want anyone questioning me if I could make it happen. The problem has been, and will always be, the corporations that buy 4 or 8 tickets (or more) in the good seats for the sole purpose of giving to other suits and entertaining clients. And half the time they just end up unused. I think there may have been some hope that by creating suites that more "fans" would get closer to the ice. That's how its set up in lots of arenas, such as Boston, where the most expensive seats are actually 20 rows up from the ice, but provide access to separate food and beer, merchandise, restaurants, etc. than the general population.
If the Rangers really "cared", they could very simply create a system where companies could call up before a game and indicate if tickets were going to go unused, and allow fans who bought single game seats in the upper tiers to move closer to the ice.
Not for long if they keep playing the way they are right now I wish we could get rid of sather and out owner then maybe we will win again
The Garden has become a disgrace. They should record fans cheering because, this year, the Garden has been silent. A lot of the fans have been priced out. I used to go to Rangers games all the times when I was younger. Now, with a mortgage and a newborn baby, I just simply can't afford it. I'll be happy if I make 1 game this season. :(
So if we all chip in $5 bucks could we raise enough to buy the franchise....or maybe at least a beer at the Garden?
Obviously your hockey knowledge isn't up to par if u say Rangers haven't had top 10 team since 94... Maybe 98-02 ok... But since lockout season, team is joy to watch and have seen nothing but growth and was 2 games away from stanley cup...
Another stupid post. Beers are not $20, they are $10- comparable to any beer at any stadium I've been to. Tickets will always sell out no matter what. A bad season and the second hand sales from ticket brokers will go down, but hat doesn't do much.
Thank you Kevin for accurately pointing out that the customers drive the market value of the tickets and not greed.
That's pretty easy to say Kev, Maybe if all my fellow renters in Manhattan stopped paying such high rent for their 1-2 room apartments then prices would start to fall on that too.
See how quick mediocrity fogs the memory. Be honest, the NYR are never consistently in the top 10 in the NHL for any period of time and yes, I know plenty about hockey!!!
Never had top 10 team? Do u know hockey? 2 years ago we were cream of crop number 1 in East and number 2 overall...
I have not purchased tickets to a Ranger game in about 15 years. I have a mortgage to pay. FIRE SATHER!!!!
Not sure why? We never have a top 10 team and since 1994, maybe 1-2 sniffs at the Finals!!!
It's also why the Knicks suck. With all this money and Fanship these two NY teams should be Dynasties

Apple recently released OS X Mavericks (10.9). Mavericks is a free upgrade available through the App Store for anyone running OS X 10.6.8 or later on supported hardware models. The fact that it is free rather than a paid upgrade will undoubtedly make it a very attractive upgrade for many Mac end users. While the new features and improvements offered by Mavericks are well documented, one feature that has been removed from Mavericks will have an immediate impact that installation developers targeting OS X need to address.
Apple OS X traditionally included a Java Runtime Environment by default. Installation developers who targeted OS X were able to rely on the fact that a JRE would be available on the target machines and did not need to include one with their setup. As of Java 6, Apple has discontinued development of the OS X JRE and will no longer include a JRE with OS X. Beginning with Java 7, Oracle is now developing the JRE for OS X. The installation of Mavericks is the first version of OS X that does not include a JRE. If Mavericks is installed to a new partition, no JRE is available after it is installed. More importantly, if Mavericks is installed to an existing partition as an upgrade to a previous version of OS X, it will remove the Apple JRE that was installed with the previous version of OS X. This is not officially documented by Apple, but is has been reported by many users who upgrade to Mavericks, as reported in this post. This means that in order to run new or existing installations that depend on an installed JRE, end users will be required to first install either an Apple or Oracle JRE.
InstallAnywhere 2013 now includes a new OS X launcher that allows the installation developer to bundle a JRE with the launcher. New InstallAnywhere JRE VM packs have also been made available for OS X. This makes it simple for InstallAnywhere developers to add a JRE to their installation and alleviates the requirements for end users to install a JRE prior to installing your software, which makes their installation experience much simpler. The installation can also install the bundled JRE and configure the application being installed to use this JRE—another way the installation developer is able to remove some of the burden from the end user.
Public Hotfix B for InstallAnywhere 2013 has been released and includes a number of fixes for OS X functionality. Learn more when you download the HotFix attached to this Knowledge Base article: HOTFIX: InstallAnywhere 2013 HotFix B
InstallAnywhere is the leading multiplatform development solution for application producers who need to deliver a professional and consistent cross installation experience for physical, virtual and cloud environments. From a single project file and build environment, InstallAnywhere creates reliable installations for on-premises platforms – Windows, Linux, Apple OS X, Solaris, AIX , HP-UX, and IBM iSeries – and enables you to take existing and new software products to a virtual and cloud infrastructure. We invite you to learn more about our newest version of InstallAnywhere, or try it out with a free trial.

3.75 / 5.00 17,489 ViewsMy english is bad, so I won't say anything... Just feel free to leave your comment. Hope you like my game. :)
Only one little thing.
Great game, really.
I always like games that combine sight and sound into integrated game play. The choice for black and white was great for immersion and the little touch of color at the end gave me a warm feeling.
My only problem is that I wanted my actions to feel more connected with the music. Some parts of the music would play a note and I would jump only to find out I needed to jump the note afterwards. Some parts I had to jump because of the obstacle but there was no discernible note to do so.
That kinda pulled me out of your world--which I so desperately wanted to stay in.
All said, I really hope you make another.
Ok, seriously
I haven't logged into newgrounds in years, and I just had to to write a review for this, because this isn't your typical flash game.
I sincerely loved this game from the moment I saw the loading screen.
The theme of running to the music is something that gives such a sense of freedom and inspiration that It baffles me, and you truly nailed that feeling in this.
This is the kind of thing people need to see more often. It's the kind of game someone can play after a rough day, not just to relieve stress, but to actually crack a smile.
Thank you for putting in the time to make this. It made my day.
dude, awesome game, and downloadable player is even more awesome! you're awesome! exaggerations are awesome! everythings awesome!
WTF? Why can't I keep moving if I bumped into an object? And why do I have to rewind my steps? It is annoying.

I drive the Frontier here in our little village 4-5 mile RTs. The Lexus I try to take out once a month for a run to town to keep the battery charged up. It got used by family this Summer. Last time I drove the LS400 was August 21st to get smog test for license. Still has less than 107k miles. The Sequoia sat in the garage and was only used for trips. Just was not as much fun to drive as the Touareg. -

ohenryx Posts: 285I filled up yesterday at the HEB. 87 octane was 2.86, 93 octane was 3.18, a 32 cent per gallon price spread. I think the days of 20 cents difference from 87 to 93 octane are gone.
No diesel at that station, across the street diesel was $3.69.
I saw one sign last week for $2.69, but didn't need gas at that time.
This is in Houston. -
Michaell@Edmunds ColoradoPosts: 508I filled up the wife's CX-7 yesterday. Noticed that the spread between grades is no longer $.10. Was $.14 between 85 and 87, and $.18 between 87 and 91. With RUG at $3.099, that meant I paid $3.419 for the tank of Shell V-power.

I also noticed that ARCO diesel was 4.13, and Safeway diesel was similar, yikes. -

jae5 Posts: 1,205Hope you had a very happy holiday (and the rest of the board)
More and more I'm thinking about it; not in the market for any vehicle for the foreseeable future. I am keeping my eye on the Jeep diesels; since I'm under the Fiat umbrella now I can get a decent discount on one. As well as keeping an eye on the VW Group of products. I'm just a glutton for torque.
Anyway we had to normal 30 cent jump for Thanksgving but I actually found a Shell / Circle K with petrol for $3.26 for 87 octane that night. And not my usual stations but in the near SW burbs. I don't think we'll go back to the $3.03 from a few weeks back but here's hoping. -
Stever@Edmunds YooperlandPosts: 38,608Thanks! Kind of slow with the boards being down.
This "Fiat" caught my eye this morning (have glanced at it before but didn't think it would ever come this way). Bet they lose the manual transmissions en route though.
2015 Ram ProMaster City Targets Nissan NV200, Ford Transit Connect -
jae5 Posts: 1,205Yes, this is a fingers-crossed for me. Can't really talk about it but with, I guess, finally acknowledgement at the upper levels that there is a need / want for a smaller van for smaller businesses, i.e. the popularity & versatility of the Transit, there's a pent up demand for that vehicle.
I mean, people with small businesses were looking for this type of van for decades. That's one of the reasons the old GM B-Body wagons, along with the full-size Fords, were so popular; they pulled double duty as family haulers and as just plain haulers. As the mini-vans became more popular they got larger but interior-wise you couldn't haul anything, especially 4 X 8 sheets. So when the PT Cruiser and the HHR (particularly the "panel" version) spurred interest in a small hauler, the Sprinter (a la Chrysler-Damlier-Freightliner) finally came through and took a decent hold, along with the rest. I really took a look at the Transit overseas as well as here and it is a VERY configurable little bugger. So figure having something that size but being able to haul the mail it can be a winner for sure.
Anyway, was back in MI and through Indy along I-80/94 petrol was $3.09 with diesel between $3.77 - $3.89. Closer to MI prices crept up to $3.12 for 87 octane, diesel same as Indy.
As an aside, I got my 1st in-the-flesh look at an F-Type; it looks great in mags but in person, it REALLY looks great. You can see the E-Type influence but the F-Type stands on its own. That would definitely be in the car barn if I win the Mega-Millions.

Judge rules Jasmine Taylor competent to stand trialPADUCAH - Jasmine Taylor--accused in the December 2010 death of CaSondra Evrard in West Paducah---is competent to stand trial. That finding came from Judge Craig Clymer after two doctors testified in her competency trial today. Jasmine and her father Mark Taylor are both charged in the murder. Judge Clymer's office says there is a hearing at 2:30 p.m. Friday, where Brandi Marshall, Destiny Marshall and Zachary Findley are to enter pleas. Mark Taylor was also scheduled to have a competency hearing yesterday, but the judge postponed it. Taylor is now due in court on Sept. 6. Full text of the judge's findings are below. "ORDER AS TO COMPETENCY "This matter is before the Court following a hearing to determine whether Defendant is competent to stand trial. "A hearing was held on August 24, 2011. The Commonwealth's witness, Dr. Andrew Cooley testified at the hearing that Defendant is competent to stand trial. The Defendant's witness testified at the hearing that the Defendant is incompetent to stand trial. "For the following reasons, the Court finds the Defendant competent to stand trial. "1. The Court ordered Defendant transported to KCPC for an independent evaluation of her competency. Defendant underwent a clinical evaluation over a period of 60 days at KCPC. In addition to the 60 day evaluation, various scientifically recognized reliable assessment tests were administered in a hospital setting. A history consisting of over 900 pages was reviewed as part of the evaluation. The evaluator also viewed a 2.5 hour police interrogation of the Defendant. "2. On Defendant's counsel's motion, the Court ordered that funds be available for an evaluation of Defendant by an expert chosen by defense counsel. Dr. Michael Nicholas completed an evaluation. The evaluation consisted of a review of portions of Defendant's history, a viewing of the police interrogation, and various clinical tests administered at the McCracken County Regional Jail. The evaluator spent a total of three to four hours with Defendant. "3. At the hearing both evaluators found fault with the conclusions of the other and both found fault with parts of the testing processes utilized by the other. "4. The Court finds that both evaluators were extremely qualified as experts and that they used scientifically reliable instruments and processes to evaluate. The decision as to competency comes to the legal presumption to be applied and the extent of the evaluation process. "5. A defendant is presumed to be competent. It is, therefore, a defendant's burden to overcome that presumption. The KCPC evaluation performed over a 60 day clinical hospitalization is, all other things equal, much more persuasive than a four hour testing session in a jail. "6. The Court finds that Defendant has failed to overcome the presumption of competency. "It is therefore ORDERED that Defendant is competent to stand trial." |

Ravens-Broncos Thriller Sets TV Ratings Records Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart Sports 14 Jan 2013 post a comment CBS's broadcast of the thrilling AFC divisional playoff game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Denver Broncos on Saturday, which the Ravens won in two overtimes, drew the largest audience for a Saturday AFC playoff game in 26 years. The broadcast averaged 35.3 million viewers; the telecast peaked with an average of over 40 million viewers. According to Nielsen, the ratings agency, and CBS, "the 35.3 million viewer average is the largest audience for a Saturday AFC Divisional Playoff game in 26 years (as far back as CBS records go, 1987-88 season)." In essence, the ratings for the Ravens-Broncos game means one in five of all television sets in America--in addition to one in three television sets in use--was tuned in to the game. These numbers again show the power of live sporting events in an age when fewer Americans are watching live television due to TiVos and DVRs.

Sep 12, 2012I guess I should have known that the Cosmos Mystery Area is really just a tourist trap, just like I know that Star Trek isn't real and that the new UFO shows don't have anything new. I felt a bit scammed, but I also realize that I let myself get scammed.
It is mildly interesting, but only as a curiosity. If you have other things you can do, do those.

First to ReviewAug 13, 2012The Cosmos Mystery Area bills itself as an area with an unusual gravitational field. It's set in the woods off of route 16 and seems like a cheeseball experience from the get go. We nevertheless paid the fee and took the guided tour. The main exhibit areas are cabins built on a weird slant along the hillside. Once inside you immediately understand how the place makes its money as water a tennis balls seem to magically roll uphill and you can barely stand up straight. It's either an optical illusion or a freak of nature or a bit of both.
