Comments about Boy's Classic Crew Socks - 3 Pair Pack:
These socks are great! Although they are called Boys Crew Socks, they look even better on girls! These socks go great with Vans and Sperrys! I have had mine for 1 year and not one hole! When I first got them, I wore them so much so the stitching came apart a bit - but everything else was amazing! Get these socks! You won't regret it. :)

Okay, maybe you're not a thumbwhore, i used the wrong insult i apologize, but all you do is caption T.V show's sometimes adding an unfunny twist at the end. You aren't a thumbwhore you just have ****** posts sorry for the confusion.

OK. I'll level with ya, I may caption TV most times, but its what got me famous from the start. Half the time I kinda do force a joke rather than think it clerly, but if my friends and others liked it, they thumb it up. I don't force that upon them. Not to mention I seen other TV comics here not made by me and they get complimented for it. It's exactly what I do, but no rants or anything. It's not easy trying to come up with a brilliant joke all the time, but I do have the tendacy to push the joke too much. I guess I am trying to stay true to myself to post daily. I don't have much talent to express for FJ but TV, but If I had the skills to draw, then I would definitely have better quality.

I'm really not. I'm one of the nicest guys you can talk to. I even try to help users getting their post around so others can see it. I just wanna find out for myself why so many people hate me so I can correct it. Turns out most are just following a bandwagon that a few users are trying to get going. No harm done though. You cool Holmes

pokeyhedgehog (06/08/2012) [-]
You too! Most people hate you because they're just jumping on the bandwagon, the users that actually hate you hate you because you you caption t.v shows. Like you said a lot of other users do the same but they don't recieve the same amount of hate, I think it's because you sometimes force the joke, just try to make it a little more subtle and i don't think people will like your posts quite a bit more.

#106: 1901-1908 "Straight-Fronted" Edwardian Corset $11.00, Kit $52.00, Stays only $16.00, Clasp only $15.00 (US dollars) The cut of the "Straight-Fronted" Corset is said to have been invented by Mme. Gaches-Sarrautes at the turn of the century. It was considered a "Health Corset" because it was designed not to compress the waist or chest. Despite Mme. Gaches-Sarrautes efforts to create a "Health Corset", women tightened the waist so much so that the health effects were lost. This pattern is multi-sized 8 through 26. Sizes 8 through 20 require 1-1/4 Yds. and sizes 22 through 26 require 1-3/4 Yds. of 45 inch wide fabric. Original Edwardian corsets were made of coutil, cotton sateen, silk taffeta and a fine high thread count cotton. The most common colors were white and putty. Wear this with Past Patterns' #108 Corset Cover, #117 French Drawers and #107 Edwardian Combination. Phone us at (937) 223-3722 or use the Order Form to order by fax or mail. |

Fact: The most underrated cute animal on the face of the planet is the walrus.
Sure, it's a 4,000-pound, breathing pile of assorted blubbery walrus parts, but so are most Americans. Thus, who are we to judge the walrus.
Besides, IT HAS A MOUSTACHE!
And that has to count for something. Even if it means they're the unintentional hipsters of the animal kingdom.
So, yes, they're super fat and toothy, and they probably like bands you've never heard of, but walruses are still cute. And if they happen to do fun party tricks like sit-ups or playing a saxophone or PBR keg stands, it's all over.
Cuteness overload. Reward the walrus with fish.
The same applies to Wilford Brimley: If he performs, feed the man.
"Thanks, Wilford. Have a mackerel."
But here's the thing Walruses aren't really ... walruses. Apparently, now, they are officially known as wordbanks.
And here's why.
About a week ago, 39-year-old Jim Ruderer of Hillsborough, New Jersey was just washing dishes in his home while his wife, Heather, rummaged through papers in their son's school folder.
Heather walked over to Jim, didn't say anything, and just showed him one particular assignment from their son, Jonas.
And it was hilarious.
You see, Jonas, who is in kindergarten, had incorrectly identified a seal as a walrus from a word bank of several different arctic animals in a matching exercise. Which, mind you, is easy enough for anyone to do. Especially a five-year-old.
But that's not the funny part. The seal labeling was just a small mistake.
And, to his credit, Jonas did correctly identify the shark. And the polar bear. And the arctic hare. And the arctic fox.
Just not the seal.
Or the walrus.
For that one, he chose ... wordbank.
As in, the heading from the box where the various animal names were printed.
"Heather and I could not stop laughing," Ruderer explained to me. "Jonas asked what was so funny, but flitted off to play with his brothers and sisters before we could work out what to say."
So, eventually, being a modern parent, Jim did what was absolutely necessary -- he posted Jonas' school assignment on the website Reddit.
This was on Wednesday evening, right before Jim started making dinner.
Ruderer says that, amazingly, by the time they began eating, an image of his son's schoolwork was already the most popular post on the main page.
"I've never topped Reddit before," he says. "So, it was kind of exciting to see it well-received."

Renewing Our Call to Mission in North America
From my first encounter with the Lao I fell in love with them as a people. I love the sound of their language – the acoustic dance of phrases that repeat the meaning in playful couplets – the style of their interactions with each other – someone has to be the older sibling and someone the younger. When you speak Lao it isn't enough to know the right words, a person has to arrange them in ways that are easy and pleasant to hear. There is a right way to speak in every situation, a way that has been in place and reinforced by the old ones for generations. The Lao are highly relational people who understand the obligation of friendships that last forever. Until very recently it was unusual to see people who were hungry or homeless in the capital city of Vientiane because relatives always took in orphans and widows. The hospitality of the Lao finds few rivals. There is always enough food for one more person. I have yet to pass a group of Lao having a meal without them urging me to come sit and eat with them. Villagers with very little in this world have gladly shared their last chicken with me for dinner and a blanket to shield me from the cool mountain air.
I was driving in the northern mountains one year when my Russian made jeep broke down. The men in the village stopped what they were doing and began to work on fixing it. For eight hours in a cold misty wind they did their best to help me. Seeing me freezing in the cold a grandmother urged me into her home, light a fire, fixed a meal and told me stories from the village to pass the time. Such is Lao hospitality. My heart will never recover from the encounter with Lao generosity. But as I sit writing these words in a little dusty Lao village an important question comes to mind. Many Christians have experienced the warmth and charm of Lao friendships and labored among them for many years sharing the good news of Jesus Christ. Why has it been so difficult to reach the Lao people with the gospel of Jesus Christ?
Lao society, like many Buddhist, Hindu and Muslim societies, is a highly integrated hierarchy. In most of these societies there is a long tradition of hospitality but this hospitality comes with a catch. Everyone is welcome as long as you are planning to return to your own home or stay and submit to the local power structures and customs and religious rituals that reinforce them. To live in Lao society is, on the one hand, to experience an incredible sense of community, and on the other hand, to never quite shake a nagging sense of oppression.
While most Lao appear happy and at peace with their circumstances it is also true that given the opportunity to leave the country for life in a more open society, a large majority of Lao would find it difficult to resist leaving. The process of getting a visitor's visa to a western country is a very long and thorough one due to the experience of having so many Lao visitors fail to return their homeland. Certainly poverty is a significant factor here. But the search for economic freedom is I believe just a symptom of a much deeper hunger for freedom in general.
Today the government of the Lao PDR has made significant strides toward providing freedom in the areas of economics and very recently in religious freedom. My recent trip to Laos revealed that churches are re-opening and very few Christians remain in prison. Praise God for this wonderful answer to prayer. But the issue of freedom in Lao society runs much deeper than the present political realities of Laos. It suggests, I believe, a deeper spiritual thirst that is reflected in society generally.
At first glance the persecution of Christians during the 1990s in Laos was puzzling. Why would the government feel that such a small group of people – made up mostly of ethnic minorities – be considered a threat. When I asked a Christian brother this question he simply smiled and said, "It is because we Christians are free." Of course! That is the same reason the mighty Roman Empire persecuted Christians in the early centuries of the Church. By giving their allegiance to Jesus, Christians then and now have always known a freedom that makes earthly power structures jealous.
Anyone who has given their allegiance to Jesus has begun to realize freedom in new ways and at multiple levels. They experience freedom from the power of sin, the accusations of guilt, the spiritual powers they once feared and repeatedly tried to appease, and, yes, even from political oppression.
No one but Jesus rules a Christian. Christians submit to the powers of this earth, and they also refuse to bend their knee to the powers of this earth at the command of their Lord Jesus Christ. The early Christians of the catacombs knew this, Dietrich Bonhoeffer knew this as he climbed the platform to be hanged in Nazi Germany, and Christians in Laos today know this too.
Today the challenge of proclaiming the love of God in Jesus Christ in nations that are highly integrated, power oriented, and religiously confident, towers before the Church as the unfinished missionary task. Much is being written about the unreached Buddhist, Hindu and Muslim nations where so many have never heard of the freedom in Jesus.
Getting the task of world evangelization done among the last unreached people is considerably complicated. Missionaries in these nations are seeking answers to difficult questions such as,
• "How should missionaries gain access to these people when missionary visas are not granted?"
• "How can Christian faith be communicated well in these contexts?"
• "How can allegiance to Jesus be expressed in ways that do not isolate Christians in these nations?"
• "Can the Christian faith be understood as a local faith instead of a foreign import?"
Getting this task done is also proving to be costly in a number of ways. Consider some of the common characteristics that the unevangelized Buddhist, Muslim and Hindu nations share.
• These people of faith are generally very resistant to the gospel. It often takes years of patient and loving witness before people give their lives to Jesus. I worked daily for more then ten years with one couple before they gave their lives to Christ.
• As already noted above these nations normally do not grant missionary visas creating a need for missionaries to have both theological and professional training in order to be effective.
• They represent a large portion of the world's poorest people making it necessary that Christian witness address very practical medical and economic needs.
• Many of these nations regularly persecute Christians and the possibility of martyrdom is real for local and expatriate Christians. Every year more than 100,000 local Christians die for their faith (World Christian Trends 2001).
I returned to the United States in 2001 to serve as the Director of the Alliance Graduate School of Mission at Alliance Theological Seminary. Since then I have heard many North American Christians suggest that the task of world evangelism should now be focused on the homeland and/or turned over to the churches of the southern hemisphere in Latin America, Asia and Africa.
I praise God for the growth of missions among these nations that we once sent missionaries to ourselves. Their role in world evangelization is already a very large and important one. Their missionaries come from strong and vibrant churches of faith.
Furthermore, no one including myself would deny the reality of the spiritual need in the United States. The task is urgent as the west continues to enter a post-Christian era. How to communicate the gospel in the postmodern era in the west remains a huge challenge.
But the task of world missions is not finished and the Lord has not released the Alliance in North America from the obligation to give ourselves, and our children, to the task of reaching the world for Christ.
The Church in United States will continue to play a critical role in the task of world evangelization for many generations to come unless we refuse to take it up. Consider that in spite of the fast growth of the Church in non-western nations in the year 2050 the United States will still have more Christians than any other nation on earth. When you couple this fact with the increasing spiritual vitality of the non-Caucasian, non-suburban churches, and the institutional and theological vitality of mission organizations in the US I can only conclude that the predictions of the eclipse of US missions is premature at best.
Rather than retreat into local concerns at home it is time for our churches to re-establish their commitment to world missions. But let me clarify some things about this call.
First, this is not a call to short-term missions. Short-term missions is playing a valuable role in raising awareness of the spiritual and economic need around the world but it is not a viable means of accomplish the missionary task left to us (see 2003/4 edition of Into All The World magazine, "Case Study 2: The Cost of Short-Term Missions" pp.104-106). Most all the missionaries I know agree. These are not missionaries who are sour on receiving short-term missionaries. These are missionaries who know that it often takes years of dedicated learning of a language and culture, and sustained loving witness before the people from these nations are ready to enter the Kingdom of God.
Reports of large numbers from conversions to Christ through short-term visits are often over stated. In many societies around the world praying a prayer of repentance and following Jesus to the exclusion of other spiritual allegiances are two different issues.
Churches in the United States should also consider the financial high cost of short-term missions. Would these resources be more wisely invested in meeting the tremendous needs that remain in areas that demand men and women who will spend a life time among people groups who are highly resistant to Christian faith? Short-term efforts are important but they will never be enough to finish the task.
Second, giving more money is not going to be enough. This is not an appeal for North American Christians to dig deeper in their pockets. Frankly, money is the easiest thing for we North Americans can give. While none of us feels like we have enough a realistic comparison with the people of this earth forces us to face our amazing wealth. We could all probably give more, and we should, but I do not believe that more money is the key to getting the task done.
Third, praying more that God will bless our missionaries' efforts and those of other Churches around the world is not enough. Prayer is only empowered when it is working in partnership with active obedience. We are called to go, to get the task done, not to pray that other people or churches will be raised up that we can support with our prayers and our finances.
So what will be enough? Only the Church's obedient dedication to do whatever it takes to preach the good news to the ends of the earth will be enough. What is needed is a new generation of men and women willing to offer their lives in service to Jesus; Christians willing to patiently share the good news with people that are for the most part hardly looking for him. We must issue this call not only to young men and women generally but also to our own children. Are you sharing the need of the unreached peoples of our world with your children? Are you willing to support them and encourage them when God calls them to go?
The call to missions is a call that claims every Christian and every church. No spiritually healthy Christian or church has ever been uninvolved in missions.
But a new commitment to missionary involvement in North American churches today must go far beyond the Caucasian suburban churches that have traditionally been the mainstay of missions. Today the most spiritually vital churches in North America are predominately the African, Asian, Eastern European and Latino American churches in our cities. We need to send our best. These churches must be newly engaged in sending and leading the missionary effort of the North American Church.
At Alliance Theological Seminary we are training men and women from around the world and from a plethora of churches. We are teaching them skills in cross-cultural communication, world religions, English as a Second Language, community development and tentmaking. We are also walking alongside these students to help them know who they are in Christ in deeper and deeper ways.
I consider this task to be a very high calling because I know from experience that there are millions on millions who have never had even one opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.
At ATS we are looking for men and women ready to take up the task of world missions in contexts that will demand everything from them. Is the Church in North America ready to nurture, disciple and send out their best to do this work? And what about you, are you ready to accept the call of Christ to missions?

SHEPHERDSTOWN, W.Va. —
A major feature of Shepherdstown's ongoing 250th anniversary celebration is a series of seven speaking events focused on the town's history over the last 2 1/2 centuries.The series began in March on the subject of local steamboat inventor James Rumsey and was followed in April with a speech about the historic significance of Town Run, which runs under the town on its way to the Potomac River.
Audiences in October and November will hear about the local train station and Shepherdstown's history in the context of regional and national events.
This month's event featured a panel discussion on how Shepherdstown went about the business of integrating schools and the community following the U.S. Supreme Court's 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision.
The panel, recruited by Shepherd University's Hannah Geffert, included Evelyn Taylor, 64, of Kearneysville, W.Va., Bishop Charles Hunter, 69, of Ebenezer Mount Calvary Holy Church in Summit Point, W.Va., and Jim Taylor, 79, of Ranson, W.Va., a member of the Jefferson County Black History Preservation Society.
Geffert moderated the discussion. It was attended by more than 100 people in Shepherdstown's Asbury United Methodist Church last Thursday.
Jim Taylor was the first black to play on Shepherd College's football team in 1955.
He was turned down for the team two years earlier but tried again, successfully, the year after Brown v. Board of Education.
"1955 was the year that integration really began at Shepherd," he said. "The coach told me I was Shepherd's Jackie Robinson. He told me I would have to put up with some things that the white players can do that you won't be able to."
"I knew what to expect," Taylor said.
One time when the team was in Newport News, Va., for an away game, white fans in the stands heckled him and yelled epithets at him, he said. When the game ended, his Shepherd teammates surrounded him and escorted him off the field.
Taylor said he was called names by white people and blacks called him "Uncle Tom. I just couldn't win."
Hunter grew up in Shepherdstown and attended the all-black elementary school there. In the days of Jim Crow, black high school students in Shepherdstown had to board a 6 a.m. school bus for the trip to the all-black, Page-Jackson High School in Charles Town, W.Va.
When he graduated from elementary school, Hunter said he refused to get on a bus at 6 o'clock in the morning when there was a nice high school (Shepherdstown High) right here in Shepherdstown.
"I made up my mind that I was going to go there," he said.
His friends told him he wouldn't get in the door.
Hunter and a few other black students did get in, he said, and there were problems.
"We knew we were paving the way, that there were challenges that we would have to overcome," he said.
Evelyn Taylor, no relation to Jim Taylor, held the book she spent 10 years researching on the history of black churches and congregations in Jefferson County.
Taylor, 69, of Kearneysville, W.Va., titled her book, "Historical Digest of Jefferson County West Virginia's African-American Congregations 1859-1994." A few selected churches in Berkeley County, W.Va., and Washington County were included in the book, she said. She said her parents, The Rev. and Mrs. Mary Taylor, influenced her in African-American history. Her mother for years had been collecting a treasure trove of information.
At some point, Taylor said, "we realized that we had a book."
Her own research took her through old minutes at Trinity Episcopal Church. The first black congregation in Jefferson County was founded in 1859.
The book lists weddings and funerals of free blacks and slaves, the latter of whom rarely had last names other than the surnames of their masters, Taylor said.
She doesn't think copies of the book are still available in area bookstores, but one can be purchased by calling her at 304-725-5948, she said.
The speaker series is being sponsored by the Historic Shepherdstown Commission.

This is school violence pure and simple. Parents must assume the responsibility of discipline for…Read More their child and not some bully teacher or principal I attended Florida schools decades ago and saw and experienced much abuse mainly toward boys. What I learned from these criminals was hate, contempt, fear, feelings of rage and revenge and more violence but not ever respect. If I met one of those abusers today I would spit right into their dirty faces. If I picked up a two foot board and hit someone I would be charged and convicted of felony assault but these people get more brazen with time and get away with their crimes. It is illegal to strike a US prisoner, an animal, a mental health patient, and hazing is illegal as well, but it is ok to physically assault a child? We have perverts (male and female) and I personally know of some that you would never guess, that are employed in our schools and are allowed by law to indulge in their fetish because there is no legislation to protect our children in school. This is disgusting and indicative of a third world country, not the United States of America. It is unbelievable to me that this is still going on.

The new wing at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, Fife has been opened recently with a 500 bed extension to the existing hospital. The space aims to improve the healthcare delivery in the region with a particular focus on the needs of the patients. The facility contains eleven operating theatres and a new A+E department as well as offering a range of other services including maternity, paediatric, renal and critical care.
The geometry and massing of the new hospital relate to the grain of the site, its stepped form mediating between the urban scale of the existing hospital building to the north-west and the suburban scale of the adjoining residential area to the north-east.
The design is formed from a medium rise modern variant of the podium and tower format of the existing building. Diagnostic and treatment space is located in an extensive two-storey podium, offering maximum flexibility to accommodate future changes in clinical practice and technology.
This podium is subdivided by wide landscaped courtyards, assisting orientation and providing daylight and long views. Wards are accommodated in contrasting straight or wave form elements located in the upper four storeys above the podium, providing a variety of ward sizes to suit NHS Fife's brief.

Students put creative stamp on mental health training
Two students are the creative forces behind a new video that explores the issue of mental health.
Bachelor of fine art student Faith Webster and film student Sierra Megas drew, filmed and edited the video, titled "What is Mental Health? with Dr. Mike Condra." The five-minute video provides a brief overview of mental health and mental illness.
"Working on this project was a reminder for me that mental health is as important a part of our health as eating, exercising, socializing and learning," says Ms. Megas. "It was fulfilling to be working on something that will educate others, specifically students, on a component of their lives that contributes to their happiness, health and well-being."
The idea for the video, which features an illustration of Mike Condra, director of Health, Counselling and Disability Services (HCDS), came from staff members in the Health Promotion unit at HCDS, who had seen similar health-related videos created by a Toronto doctor.
"We were looking for a way to capture some of the important information Dr. Condra includes in his mental health training sessions and share it more widely with the Queen's community in a way that's fun and creative," says Kate Humphrys, Health Promotion Coordinator.
The cross-disciplinary project also provided a valuable learning experience for the students.
"Collaborating with Faith was a delight because she brought a strong visual sense to the project," says Ms. Megas. "We were each working in different artistic mediums which challenged us to think about what kind of images we were making and how we would use them to convey a message around mental health that would be simple and easy for others to understand."

Kathleen Luzier on the Appalachian Trail near Reno Monument Road in Boonsboro during the 2012 JFK 50 Mile Run Saturday. Luzier was able to shave off about 47 minutes from her time last year with her time Saturday of 8:10:27 (Herald-Mail file photo / November 18, 2012) |
Dave Fox was basking Sunday in the success of being able to complete his 20th JFK 50 Mile ultramarathon on Saturday, putting him in the ranks of the event's 1,000-mile club.
And although Fox said before the race that this would probably be his last annual running of the event, he was rethinking his plans Sunday, saying there are many things he would miss about not being in it every year.
First-time JFK runner Mary Ellis, 63, of Keedysville, slipped on some wet leaves on a rock on the Appalachian trail and hurt her left knee when she fell.
Ellis said she later suffered spasms in her back — which she thinks was caused by her "listing to one side" because of her knee injury — and dropped out of the race at mile 47.
Ellis ran with her daughter-in-law, Vicki Ellis, for the first 18 miles. Then Ellis told her daughter-in-law to go ahead.
Vicki Ellis completed the race in 12 hours, 16 minutes and 31 seconds.
And so goes the JFK 50 with its mix of exhilarating highs and painful challenges as 1,000 runners tried to complete the 50-mile race over paved roads, rolling hills and steep terrain on the Appalachian Trail.
The Herald-Mail profiled six runners before the race, five of whom were reached Sunday to talk about their experience.
Fox, culinary services director at Twin Oaks — Williamsport Retirement Village, said before Saturday's race that this would probably be his last annual running of the event because he does not have as much time to train due to other personal responsibilities.
But Fox said Sunday he is not sure whether he will stop running in the event because he would miss the experiences from the race if he stopped. For example, he said he was impressed by another runner he met Saturday who overcame four heart surgeries to compete.
"It might be (my last one), but I might run 20 more," said Fox, who described the incredible feeling of entering the event's 1,000 mile club after years of anticipation.
"It's like the feeling you get when you first finish the JFK," said Fox, 43, of Hagerstown, who finished Saturday's race in 12:45:51.
Vicki Ellis, who finished the JFK 50 once before, and Mary Ellis had talked about running together in the race. Mary Ellis said her husband died suddenly in 2010 and the experience prompted her to contemplate a bucket list, which included the ultramarathon.
Vicki Ellis, 42, of Mercersburg, Pa., said she and her mother-in-law started the race at the 5 a.m. slot.
Reflecting on her fall Sunday, Mary Ellis said she thought about the times she had "trained, trained and trained" on the Appalachian Trail.
Mary Ellis said when she fell, she thought "Oh my golly."
Mary Ellis said she was offered a van ride after her injury but decided to keep running as long as she could.
"She was running into a lot of problems," Vicki Ellis said.
Mary Ellis was able to make it to mile 46 by a required cutoff time of 6 p.m., but could not meet the challenge of finishing the rest of the race by 7 p.m., Vicki Ellis said.
Jerry Mason, 56, of Greencastle, Pa., said before the race he has been able to trim more than 30 minutes off his time each year he ran in the race.

Hi Web Crew,
First off, upon opening all packaging to my Ultimate Collector's Pack for Chapter V, I did not even receive a copy of the Chapter V CD. Secondly, I have had two customer service requests under the numbers #2098 and #2518. I am still waiting on a refund for my Trey's Angels membership because I received a coupon with my order(#13500002897) for my purchase of the Ultimate Collector's Pack. The coupon code was CEB5CD6545. The invoice number for the payment that was supposed to be refunded is 201481. I was told that I would see the refund in 5-7 business days on Sept. 6. After not receiving my refund, I reached out to the support team again on Sept. 24, and was once again told I would have a refund in 5-7 business days. I am still waiting for this refund, and I would like to know why it has taken over a month? I reached out once again on Oct. 9, resulting in request #2645, and have yet to hear from anyone and it is now Oct. 17. I would really just like my money back. Below is a copy of my payment confirmation email.
Thank you for your order. You may find order details below:

ZAR ZAR-related questions. Digital image recovery; General data recovery (filesystems and RAIDs). |
Thread Tools | Search this Thread | Display Modes |
Question about recovered files from broken ICH9R RAID5
Maybe this question is already answered before, so I apologize if so. After I scanned through my broken ICH9R RAID5 I found a lot of files with red mark, meaning that they are presumably broken. However I did the copy procedure for all files and checked several mp3 and jpg files that were reported as damaged, but they actually are OK. So, since I have more than 10000 red marked files, do I have to check every recovered file to be sure that it is actually OK or no, as ZAR says that they are broken. Also I do not understand one thing. I had one pretty large folder along with another folders within a folder in the partition root. ZAR found full file and folder structure of the root folder but that large folder within the root folder is missing. I found that all the folder is found as fragments and LostDir's, so the Folder inner structure is lost. When I tried to connect all 4 drives to ICH9R controller (motherboard actually) I could still access that particular folder and even copy out some files and they are working. So why ZAR cannot see what is still usable even in normal way? And the last thing about save states. When I try to load saved state it always says that it cannot identify 1 or 2 drives. Does it mean that I cannot use the save state for recovery and I have to do a time consuming rescan again? Thank You in advance! Regards, Tom. |
Re: Question about recovered files from broken ICH9R RAID5
Yes, you have to check every recovered file to see if it valid. Color markings are "estimation" only, prone to errors. You may find this explanation helpful - http://www.z-a-recovery.com/man-validation.htm
Also, if you email me couple of samples which are "red" but actually OK, I'll check if we can fix the code to assign colors correctly. I find it surprising that something is accessible but ZAR does not see it. Is it possible that there is another copy of the same data buried somewhere in the folder tree? If you fiddle with the disk configuration (i.e. add/remove good disks), or even add/remove memory cards (they are also a part of disk configuration), ZAR senses this and it is announced on load. However, if all the array members are found OK, then it is OK to use the save file.
Best regards, Alexey |
Re: Question about recovered files from broken ICH9R RAID5
Hello, Alexey!
Files I checked were mp3 and jpg, so I can send You them, just say where to send. In the begining I had one drive reported as bad for RAID0, and when I marked it as normal it started rebuild process for RAID5 on 4 drives in total. Rebuild crashed on about 20% with reporting another drive to be down for RAID5. Since I found that the cause was the wires, not the drives, maybe it is reasonable to try withou the first failed drive. I am not sure how exactly RAID5 rebuild works, but I suppose that maybe that first failed drive is really with unusable data, but the second failed drive is actually good. Maybe that is confusing ZAR? The only thing is that the scanning process on 3 of 4 drives takes a lot longer time. How do You think? Would it be reasonable to try this scenario? Thank You! Tom. |
Re: Question about recovered files from broken ICH9R RAID5
Send to email@example.com
This mailbox accepts 10MB files max. One sample of each type should be enough. Yes. Reasonable to try with three drives to see if it can rebuild the RAID5 itself. For this, get the 46th build. http://www.z-a-recovery.com/zar-83-046.exe It has "lot longer time" issue addressed. Now it is not a "lot longer" but more like "50% longer".

Florida Elects Two Openly Gay State Lawmakers For The First Time
On Election Day this year, Florida went from having zero openly gay lawmakers in the state Legislature to two.
David Richardson won a seat in the Florida House representing Miami Beach and Joe Saunders won a seat representing a part of Orlando. Both men are openly gay.
Up until last week, Florida was the biggest state in the U.S. to have never elected an openly gay person to office in their state legislature.
Chuck Wolfe, president of the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund, says that Florida was actually part of a national trend.
The Victory Fund endorses openly gay candidates and helps get them elected. They endorsed 180 candidates all over the country this year -- ranging from city council seats to U.S. Senate races -- and 122 of these candidates actually won.
"I mean, the entire country is shifting. On this issue, Florida seems to be shifting a little later than the rest of the country," says Wolfe.
He says the late shift is because Florida has people from all over the country living here. The state also has a significant elderly population, which tends to vote less pro-gay rights.

Friends I need a recommendation on a park in Florida for January through March. I need low density and close to a beach. Anyone have a favorite?

Can you move every couple of weeks or do you need to stay put the entire time? Some of the Florida state parks offer some space and are near beaches, but there is usually a 14-day maximum stay. I've found that the snowbirds don't tend to stay in the state parks as they don't care to move around. Unfortunately, the beach-front ones tend to get a little rowdy on the weekends all year long.

Arizona Cardinals' Larry Fitzgerald tweets that he signed a restructured contract
Faced with the fact that receiver Larry Fitzgerald was due to count $18 million against the team's salary cap in 2014, the team had hoped to come to an agreement with the veteran that would satisfy both sides.
And it appears they have done just that.
Back in AZ from #SB48 & the 1st order of business this AM was signing a restructured contract to help the @AZCardinals get better for 2014!
— Larry Fitzgerald (@LarryFitzgerald) February 4, 2014
Fitzgerald was due to earn $12.75 million in base salary this season, with the rest of the cap hit being part of a prorated signing bonus.
Last week, before the Super Bowl, Fitzgerald told the Dan Bickley Show with Vince Marotta that when the discussions about a restructured contract came, he will "do what I need to do."
What exactly that entailed we do not know, but reports are the move saved the Cardinals about $8 million.
My understanding of #Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald's contract situation is that it was a simple restructure. Saves about $8M in cap space
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 4, 2014
"I understand that at 30 years old, there's things that need to change," Fitzgerald said at the time. "That's part of football, that's part of being an older veteran and part of this league.
"I want to see this team do well. I love the nucleus of guys. I know Patrick's deal is coming up -- he needs to be compensated as the best corner in the game, which I feel that he is. We've got to take care of Karlos Dansby, Frostee Rucker. There's a lot of guys that deserve to be compensated for their play, and I understand that."
Fitzgerald, who has played his entire career in Arizona with the Cardinals, is coming off a bounce-back season that saw him catch 82 passes for 954 yards and 10 touchdowns. He made his eighth Pro Bowl.

+ John Cannon Homes reports increase in sales volume
John Cannon Homes surpassed $23 million in sales in its fourth quarter.
The east Manatee County-based firm, according to a release, sold 27 homes in the quarter for $23.3 million in sales volume, "a dramatic increase" over past quarters. Prices ranged from $400,000 to $2 million, according to the release.
John Cannon Homes President and CEO John Cannon says he believes the 2012 fourth-quarter momentum will carry into 2013. The firm builds in the Lake Club and Country Club East in Manatee County, in addition to several other communities from Sarasota to Tampa. It will also build custom homes on lots for clients in Charlotte, Hillsborough, Manatee, Pinellas and Sarasota counties.
"We saw interest in the custom-home market begin to pick up in early 2011 and continue on through 2012," Cannon said in the release. "With used inventory at the lowest it's been in years, our buyers looked to build new custom homes with all the amenities and features for today's lifestyle."
The firm plans to add three more models to its portfolio in 2013.
"Today's buyer realizes that prices are no longer declining," said Cannon. "Now is the time to take advantage of today's pricing."
+ WCI Communities welcomes new tennis pro
WCI Communities has named Paul Jones as the new tennis professional at Tidewater Preserve, the 373-acre master-planned community along the Manatee River in Bradenton.
Jones, a native Floridian who studied at Eckerd College, brings more than 45 years in tennis to the position.
A PTR-certified instructor, Jones was previously the head teaching pro at Terra Ceia Golf and Tennis Country Club, where he instructed junior, advanced junior, high school, collegiate and adult players in the development of technique and tennis strategy.
A former teaching pro at Bradenton Country Club, assistant director of Tapes Tennis and coordinator of player development for the Ferrer Tennis Academy, Jones also continues to teach youth tennis at the Manatee County YMCA in Bradenton.
Jones has competed in tennis tournaments throughout the eastern U.S. and has won or placed in men's doubles and singles as well as mixed-doubles divisions in Florida, Indiana, Kentucky and North Carolina, including first place in the 2006 USTA National Eastern Mixed Doubles Championships in Puerto Rico.

As noted here, if your computer is part of a "double NAT" network, Back to My Mac (BTMM) connections to your computer may not work as expected. The computer may appear in the Finder Sidebar but connections will not be successful, or the computer may not appear in the Sidebar at all. Note: "Double NAT" is a common phrase for a network that has multiple layers of Network Address Translation (NAT). For example, if your cable modem is providing NAT, and you connect an AirPort Base Station to the cable modem using the default AirPort settings, the AirPort Base station may provide another layer of NAT.
Typically, an AirPort Extreme base station will alert you if it's in a double NAT situation. The AirPort Utility provides a message such as "Double NAT" or "Conflicting DHCP Range", and the status light will blink amber. AirPort Utility may suggest that you change to bridge mode.
To resolve the issue, update your Mac computers to Mac OS X v10.6.5 or later. Mac OS X v10.6.5 contains Back To My Mac improvements to resolve connection issues with many common double-NAT configurations.
If that doesn't work, you can try disabling NAT on the router, so that the IP address provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is assigned to the AirPort Extreme base station. The AirPort Extreme base station will then be able to use NAT to assign IP addresses to all computers that connect to it.
If you are able to determine that your Internet modem is functioning as a router/gateway at either location, refer to the documentation provided with the modem or contact your ISP for assistance with disabling NAT on it.
If it is not possible to disable NAT on the Internet modem at either location, you can use your AirPort Extreme in bridge mode as an alternative:
- Open AirPort Utility.
- Click the Internet tab.
- Make note of your current settings.
- Change the settings to the following:
- Connect Using: Ethernet
- Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
- Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode) - Click Update.
- Confirm that you are still able to connect to the Internet (in a Web browser, for example).
- Try using Back to My Mac again.
Additional Information
How to tell if you are using "double NAT"
While every network setup is different, here is a simple way to tell if your computer is on a "double NAT" network:
- Open Network Utility.
- Click Traceroute.
- In the field, enter "www.icloud.com".
- Click Trace.
After starting the trace, look for the line beginning with the number 2.
If the address in that line is any IP address in either of the following ranges:
- 10.x.x.x
- 192.168.x.x
... then your network has multiple layers of NAT.
Note: For complicated or corporate networks, contact your Network Administrator for further assistance.

Assess the role of blindness in Oedipus Rex and Antigone.
1 Answer | add yours
I think that blindness occupies a great deal of importance in both dramas. In Oedipus' narrative, blindness symbolizes how Oedipus viewed his own sense of being and the conditions that surrounded him. Oedipus' own blindness was one in which he failed to understand his own fallibility in the face of a larger configuration. His act of taking his own sight was a gesture acknowledging this. In Antigone's exploration, there is an emotional blindness that prevents any sort of rational discussion and compromise from taking place. Creon is blind to any notion of rule but his own. Antigone is blinded by her own hurt and her own assertiveness. These examples of blindness prevent them from understanding the pain and suffering of those around them. Eurydice, Haemon, and Ismene suffer tremendously because of the blindness that both main characters display. In Oedipus' case, blindness is a condition of being that prompts a sense of change and reflection. In Antigone's case, blindness is an emotional one that is more destructive as it prevents any reconciliation or acknowledgement of that which needs to be changed.
