And so far, the 2016 schedule hasn't been toyed with. It includes Maryland at home, East Carolina on the road and BYU in Landover, Md. In 2017 Maryland and ECU are on the schedule so far and in 2018 just ECU.
The reason you should probably write those just in pencil is obvious. None of the schedules in the next three years are what they were a year or so ago and there could be other changes, especially when the new college football playoff folks get around to executing specific criteria (read strength of schedule) and the power conferences involved begin reacting to it.
For the record, though, the way WVU's schedules are set up in the next few years pretty much satisfies the school's criteria for doing so, namely getting seven home games in order to pay the bills. The exception is this year, when the home and road games are at an even 6-6 split.
In 2014 there are just six home games, but the neutral-site game with Alabama will be as lucrative as (or more so than) a home game. The same applies to 2016 with six at home and the game against BYU. In between, the 2015 schedule has seven true home games, oddly enough in a year in which there are just four Big 12 home games.
Again, though, don't carve any of it in stone.
When athletic director Oliver Luck said last week that he hoped that WVU's deficit during the 2012-13 fiscal year would shrink from almost $13 million last year to less than $100,000 this year, at first I thought that WVU's home football schedule had something to do with that. After all, the Mountaineers had seven home games, including five Big 12 home dates, which are worth roughly $2 million each.
Well, in some ways the home games did help, particularly from a concessions standpoint, where beer sales helped the bottom line. But ticket sales? Not so much.
It's not that crowds were lousy (although they certainly could have been better), but most of the tickets to those games were actually sold during the previous fiscal year, 2011-12. As it turns out, that's where the money is accounted for on the balance sheet - in the year the department lost $13 million.
It's not that big a deal, of course, but I did find it interesting. Consider this coming season, when WVU has just those six home games and no neutral-site game to make up for the shortfall. Most of the season tickets will be sold before the June 30 end of the fiscal year and that money goes on the books as 2012-13 income, even though it's for tickets to be used during the 2013-14 school year.
All of which, at least to me, makes WVU's small estimated loss for this fiscal year even more amazing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Fredrik1966 Pleasant stay in Nice, France
Nice rooms and very helpful staff.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Liandlo Perfect!
Le Meridien was perfect in every way. The staff was warm, friendly and attentive to our needs. Our room over looked the water and set the stage for a relaxing weekend. The hotel's location is perfect as well; everything was within walking distance.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hortensia13 Exceptional service at Nice Le Meridien
Last year in 2013 we had a most pleasant 3 day stay in NIce at Le Meridien, made even more delightful by the excellent butler service. Our butler could not have been more helpful or professional. One evening we dined in our room and it became a memorable evening on the balcony with delicious food and friendly attention to our even need.

Rated 5 out of 5 by grove100 Excellent staff
Excellent staff throughout the hotel-especially in the breakfast room
Upgrade to a room with a view is recommended.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Brooxh No better place to be
My wife and I have stayed here twice, and are looking forward to returning again soon. The staff was courteous and helpful on both prior visits (including in 2007 before I became Platinum). You could not find a location that's more in the middle of things, and with a great view of the city and the sea. Our rooms were comfortable and well kept on both prior visits and the breakfast buffet was very good . . . a great way to start each day. Highly recommended.
Rated 5 out of 5 by discoinferno99 A lovely stay
We stayed for 2 nights and had a very enjoyable stay. The first night at the hotel appeared to be busy with a conference. I noticed that the hotel had pre-upgraded us to a sea view room a few weeks before arrival as a Platinum upgrade. It was great that they did this to ensure we had a good room, despite the limitation on upgrades with the conference.
The location of the hotel was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The only two negatives were that our room was extremely hot and with the hotel setting the a/c system to heat only for the winter, it did make the room uncomfortable at times. Secondly the fitness centre is part of the spa, which has rather limited opening hours that aren't very convenient.
Besides the two small negatives, we will definitely return to Le Meridien should we be in Nice again. Thanks to the staff for a great stay.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ackermann1 Comfortable hotel with efficient service
The Hotel is well managed and we had no cause for complaint
Rated 5 out of 5 by Janne2103 Week in Nice
Fantastic location and nice hotel with good and quite rooms (we stayed at an "inner room"). Very helpful and friendly staff. Wifi in rooms should have been included and breakfast was expensive. Found very good breakfast facility very near the hotel and this is what we recommend all to do, eat breakfast outside the hotel.

When safe words are ignored
Women in the bondage and kink scene are speaking out about sexual assaults in the community, and calling for change
Tracy Clark-Flory Follow - 0

Topics: Love and Sex, BDSM, Editor's Picks, Life News
Maggie Mayhem is dressed like a kinky dictator. Standing onstage at San Francisco's Center for Sex and Culture, her olive-green military cap and knee-high-heeled boots belie the vulnerable subject at hand.
"The first time I was ever raped," she starts, her throat tightening around her words, "it was actually on a date with somebody from my local S/M community."
The 27-year-old sex educator and fetish model has never before publicly shared the story of her sexual assault, but the purpose of this evening's event, a "consent culture" fundraiser, is so that she can start telling it, again and again. Her mission, along with fellow activist and sex worker Kitty Stryker, is to raise awareness about what they say is widespread abuse within the BDSM community and a tendency for players to either turn a blind eye or actively cover it up. They've developed a workshop meant to combat the problem and want to take it on the road.
We're talking about real abuse here, not the "consensual non-consent" that the scene is built around, as Mayhem's story of her first assault makes clear. As an 18-year-old member of a kinky student club at the University of California, Berkeley, Mayhem helped raise money to bring a prominent BDSM educator to campus for a workshop. Afterward, he singled her out for a private "play date" and she was flattered. "I thought this was the best person I could start to learn from," she says.
The scene that they negotiated was "fantastic," Mayhem says, but then things took a turn. "I found myself tied up and unable to get away when that individual decided that he was going to have sex with me," she says, tears welling in her eyes, "even though we'd specifically negotiated against it, even though I was saying that it needed to stop, and even though he was not wearing a condom at the time."
For the most part, she kept the experience to herself, but on the rare occasions when she did tell people in the community about it, she says, "I got one response … which was people saying [things like], 'I don't do drama. This is a respected person in the community. I'm very sorry that you had a miscommunication during your scene that made it not very fun for you, but I don't want to hear about it.'"
As she pushed deeper into the scene, trying to put this experience behind her, she had countless more encounters where her boundaries were blatantly ignored. As she gained experience, she started to talk more confidently and openly about these experiences – but, again, she got the "I don't do drama" line. At the same time, she realized that such abuse was prevalent: "It started to look more like a systemic issue," she says. As Stryker wrote last year in an essay for Good Vibrations magazine, " I have yet to meet a female submissive who hasn't had some sort of sexual assault happen to her."
BDSM has long been a target of criticism from outsiders, but these two are devoted members of the scene. Stryker argued in her essay, "I Never Called It Rape," that the community is so "focused on saying how BDSM isn't a cover for abuse that we willingly blind ourselves to the times that it can be," she wrote. "How on earth can we possibly say to society at large that BDSM is not abuse when we so carefully hide our abusers and shame our abused into silence?"
At one point during the event, Carol Queen, an infamous sex educator and co-founder of the Center for Sex and Culture, takes the stage and tells a story about how her partner, Robert, had been alerted a few years back by various insiders that someone was drugging girls and raping them at local play spaces. "Robert actually acted to try to stop that guy and the pillars of the community, some of them, did not feel very good about that," she says. (The scene, which not only faces outside criticism but also serious legal threats, is "really invested" in not talking about this, Stryker explains.)
Queen, a guru of progressive Bay Area sexuality, also reveals that despite still being a submissive woman, she "doesn't play anymore" or "go out to community dungeon spaces," in large part "because of issues we're talking about here."
The problem spans from unwanted overtures to rape, say Mayhem and Stryker. "When I start to think of the number of times I have been cajoled, pressured, or forced into sex that I did not want when I came into 'the BDSM community', I can't actually count them," Stryker wrote in Good Vibrations' magazine. "As I reflected on the number of times I've … been pressured into a situation where saying 'no' was either not respected or not an option, or said that I did not want a certain kind of toy used on me which was then used, I'm kind of horrified."
Beyond black-and-white cases of rape, there is a cultural disdain for safe words, they say. "When I was a submissive," says Stryker, now a dominant in both her personal and professional life, "I felt the pressure to not safeword because I felt like that made you a bad submissive." That's because she witnessed submissives who used their safe word being criticized as "difficult." At the "consent culture" event, Stryker asks the audience, "Is it the fault of the submissive who didn't safeword when they should have or is it the fault of the dominant who didn't notice that their submissive didn't safeword [when they should have] or is it the fault, as I think it is, of the community that makes it complicated?"
Complicating things further, there are the times when a scene doesn't have a clear start, so a safe word is never negotiated (although there are universal safe words, like "red" or the exceedingly obvious "safe word" that any experienced dom should recognize).
Mayhem and Stryker don't expect much sympathy from the outside world about the problem of pushed boundaries within a scene that eroticizes pushing boundaries, but they did hope for a better reception from the people within their own community who are throwing these play parties. It's their discussion of the pressure to not safeword that has courted the most controversy within the scene. One critic, Janet Hardy, author of several popular BDSM books, including "The New Bottoming Book," tells me, "My general thoughts are that it is tremendously important to build a safe word culture but that bottoms have to hold up their share of that responsibility," she says. "A bottom who refuses to safeword when he or she has actually withdrawn consent has just turned me into a rapist or assailant without my consent, and that is not OK."
Hardy, co-author of the bible on polyamory, "The Ethical Slut," doesn't deny that sexual assault is a problem in the community, but she takes issue with arguments about the social pressure to not safeword. It has "some of the flavor of the kind of victimhood that we see from some second wave feminists," she says, "and I don't want to get too deep into this because I'm going to get myself into trouble, but you know where I'm going with this."
Another detractor wrote in response to a recent interview Stryker did in the San Francisco Bay Guardian:
A bottom/sub MUST investigate who they are seeking to play with. They MUST insist that their safe words are honored. They should, when playing with someone new or unfamiliar, have someone they trust be present to look out for their safety. A bottom/sub should never play with someone the first time in a private location (someone's home, hotel, etc.). If public play spaces are not available, try to set an arrangement where there will be someone to look after their best interests.
Stryker considers such criticisms "very victim blame-y." She explains, "[There's] this belief that if I make sure I get references, have a safe call [a scheduled check-in with a friend to make sure things haven't gone awry] and negotiate using a checklist, I'll be safe," Stryker tells me. "But then you find out that you can do those three things and not be safe anyway, and that's terrifying. You realize how vulnerable you are."
Despite it being a marginal sexual community, these debates clearly echo conversations about consent that routinely happen in the world at large. Hardy says, "These things tend to happen by their nature in places where there are only two witnesses. To what degree can the community line up behind a problem when it's one person's word against another's?" (Ah, the old "he said, she said" quandary.) Just as so often happens with assaults on college campuses, alcohol and other intoxicants are frequently blamed. "Standard BDSM gospel has it that you don't play when impaired, but a lot of people do," says Hardy.
No matter the context, victims of assault tend to engage in the same second-guessing of themselves. "It can be really confusing," Mayhem says during her speech. "Was that a scene, what was that? Should I have expected that? Was it my business to go that far and then stop? Is this just how it works?" That sounds a whole lot like the more familiar, "Was I dressed too provocatively? Should I have been out that late at night? Did I lead him on?"
In many ways, the kink scene seems light-years ahead of other sexual communities when it comes to issues of consent. They have checklists that tirelessly detail personal limits and safe words meant to bring things to a screeching halt if ever someone's boundaries are crossed. That's theory — just like "no" means "no" for non-kinksters — but it's not always so in practice.

Laws for the Sabbath
1Moses called together the people of Israel and told them that the Lord had said:
2 # Ex 20.8-11Ex 23.12Ex 31.1415Ex 34.21Lv 23.3Dt 5.12-14 You have six days in which to do your work. But the seventh day must be dedicated to me, your Lord, as a day of rest. Whoever works on the Sabbath will be put to death. 3Don't even build a cooking fire at home on the Sabbath.
Offerings for the Sacred Tent
(Exodus 25.1-9; 35.10-19)
4Moses told the people of Israel that the Lord had said:
5I will welcome an offering from anyone who wants to give something. You may bring gold, silver, or bronze; 6blue, purple, or red wool; fine linen; goat hair; 7tanned ram skin or fine leather; acacia wood; 8olive oil for the lamp; sweet-smelling spices for the oil of dedication and for the incense; or 9onyx#35.9 onyx: See the note at 25.7. stones or other gems for the sacred vest and breastpiece.
10If you have any skills, you should use them to help make what I have commanded: 11the sacred tent with its covering and hooks, its framework and crossbars, and its post and stands; 12the sacred chest with its carrying poles, its place of mercy, and the curtain in front of it; 13the table with its carrying poles and all that goes on it, including the sacred bread; 14the lamp with its equipment and oil; 15the incense altar with its carrying poles and sweet-smelling incense; the ordination oil; the curtain for the entrance to the sacred tent; 16the altar for sacrifices with its bronze grating, its carrying poles, and its equipment; the large bronze bowl with its stand; 17the curtains with the posts and stands that go around the courtyard and the curtain at the entrance; 18the pegs and ropes for the tent and the courtyard; 19and the finely woven priestly clothes for Aaron and his sons.
Gifts for the Lord
20Moses finished speaking, and everyone left. 21Then those who wanted to bring gifts to the Lord, brought them to be used for the sacred tent, the worship services, and the priestly clothes. 22Men and women came willingly and gave all kinds of gold jewelry such as pins, earrings, rings, and necklaces. 23Everyone brought their blue, purple, and red wool, their fine linen, and their cloth made of goat hair, as well as their ram skins dyed red and their fine leather. 24Anyone who had silver or bronze or acacia wood brought it as a gift to the Lord.
25The women who were good at weaving cloth brought the blue, purple, and red wool and the fine linen they had made. 26And the women who knew how to make cloth from goat hair were glad to do so.
27The leaders brought different kinds of jewels to be sewn on the special clothes and the breastpiece for the high priest. 28They also brought sweet-smelling spices to be mixed with the incense and olive oil that were for the lamps and for ordaining the priests. 29Moses had told the people what the Lord wanted them to do, and many of them decided to bring their gifts.
Bezalel and Oholiab
(Exodus 31.1-11)
30Moses said to the people of Israel:
The Lord has chosen Bezalel#35.30 Bezalel: See the note at 31.2. of the Judah tribe. 31-33Not only has the Lord filled him with his Spirit, but he has given him wisdom and made him a skilled craftsman who can create objects of art with gold, silver, bronze, precious stones, and wood. 34The Lord is urging him and Oholiab#35.34 Oholiab: Hebrew "Oholiab son of Ahisamach." from the tribe of Dan to teach others. 35And he has given them all kinds of artistic skills, including the ability to design and embroider with blue, purple, and red wool and to weave fine linen.

The Summerville Police Department is looking for a man believed to be involved in a sexual assault that occurred Wednesday afternoon on the Sawbranch Trail near the SCE&G power station near Bacons Bridge Road.
The suspect is described as a 16-18 year-old white male approximately five feet seven inches tall, 180 pounds, with curly brown hair and wearing jeans and a camouflage jacket, according to a SPD Incident Report.
According to the report, witnesses called 911 at about 1:45 p.m. Wednesday to report seeing a young white female running along the Sawbranch Trail naked, screaming, with blood running down her face. Officers arrived and spoke to the victim, a 17-year-old female, described in the report as having visible scratches, bruises, and a bloody lip. The victim told the officers that she was running on the trail when the suspect came riding along on a bicycle. She said as rode past her, he smacked her buttocks. She said that this incident upset her but she kept running.
However, the suspect reappeared and this time rammed her with his bike, then jumped off, ordered her to shut up, punched her several times in the face, then pulled a knife and tried to push her to the ground before dragging her into the woods and assaulting her, according to the report.
According to the report, a witness came upon the scene and asked if everything was all right. The suspect yelled at the witness, saying he was with his girlfriend and they were trying to have sex. At this point, the victim started screaming for help and the suspect fled the area on his bike. She then ran to her car then went home and told her father what had happened.
The victim said she runs the trail often and did not recognize her attacker.
The case is under investigation. Anyone with any information should call the Summerville Police Department at 871-2463.

Dylan McDermott Takes His 'Hostages' Character Home With Him
By Sierra Marquina
Dylan McDermott is back on TV with the new CBS thriller, Hostages.
Dylan plays Duncan, an FBI agent who takes a family hostage with the intent to kill the president.
And considering his character's life is pretty intense, we had to wonder, how does Dylan shake off his character once it's time to go home?
He doesn't!
"I'm a little bit more paranoid than usual. I'm a little bit more suspect," he tells us of his own reality. "The world is maybe a little darker place than normal and those things are what Duncan feels. There is a lot going on with this guy."
Catch Hostages tonight on CBS at 10/9c.

A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a disturbance in brain function that lasts less than 1 hour and results from a temporary blockage of the brain's blood supply.
TIAs may be a warning sign of an impending ischemic stroke. People who have had a TIA are much more likely to have a stroke than those who have not. About half of these strokes occur within 1 year of the TIA, and many occur within a few days of the TIA. Recognizing a TIA and having the cause identified can help prevent a stroke.
TIAs are most common among middle-aged and older people.
TIAs differ from ischemic strokes because, after a TIA, symptoms resolve completely and quickly. Experts used to think that symptoms resolved more quickly because TIAs did not cause any permanent brain damage. That is, no brain cells died. However, most experts now think that TIAs are small ischemic strokes. That is, in TIAs, as in ischemic strokes, brain cells die. The difference is that in TIAs, the damage is usually very small.
Causes of TIAs and ischemic strokes are mostly the same. Most TIAs occur when a piece of a blood clot (thrombus) or of fatty material (atheroma, or plaque) due to atherosclerosis breaks off from the heart or from the wall of an artery, travels through the bloodstream (becoming an embolus), and lodges in an artery that supplies the brain (see see Causes). Occasionally, TIAs result from a very low oxygen level in the blood, a severe deficiency of red blood cells (anemia), carbon monoxide poisoning, thickened blood (as in polycythemia), or very low blood pressure (hypotension), especially when the arteries to the brain are already narrowed (as in people with atherosclerosis).
Symptoms of a TIA develop suddenly. They are identical to those of an ischemic stroke (see see Ischemic Stroke) but are temporary and reversible. They usually last less than 5 minutes and not longer than 1 hour. TIAs recur in about 5% of people with atherosclerosis. People may have several in 1 day or only two or three in several years.
Turbulent Blood Flow
People who have a sudden symptom similar to any symptom of a stroke, even if it quickly resolves, should go immediately to an emergency department. Such a symptom suggests a TIA. However, other disorders, including seizures, brain tumors, migraine headaches, and abnormally low levels of sugar in the blood (hypoglycemia), cause similar symptoms, so further evaluation is needed.
If doctors suspect that a TIA has occurred, they evaluate people rapidly, usually in the hospital, because a stroke may occur soon after a TIA. Doctors check for risk factors for stroke by asking people questions, reviewing their medical history, and doing blood tests.
Imaging tests, such as computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are done to check for evidence of a stroke, bleeding, and brain tumors. A specialized type of MRI, called diffusion MRI, can show areas of brain tissue that are not functioning and thus help doctors diagnose a TIA (or an ischemic stroke). However, diffusion MRI is not always available.
Other imaging tests help determine whether an artery to the brain is blocked, which artery is blocked, and how complete the blockage is. These tests provide images of the arteries that carry blood through the neck to the brain (the internal carotid arteries and the vertebral arteries) and the arteries of the brain (such as the cerebral arteries). Color Doppler ultrasonography (used only for the internal carotid arteries), magnetic resonance angiography (see see Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA)), or CT angiography (see see CT Angiography) may be done. Sometimes if the stroke is severe, cerebral angiography (using a dye injected through a catheter) is done (see see CT Angiography).
Treatment of TIAs is aimed at preventing a stroke. It is the same as that after an ischemic stroke.
The first step in preventing a stroke is to control, if possible, the major risk factors for it: high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, smoking, and diabetes. Taking an antiplatelet drug, such as aspirin Some Trade Names BAYER , a combination tablet of low-dose aspirin Some Trade Names BAYER plus dipyridamole Some Trade Names PERSANTINE , or clopidogrel Some Trade Names PLAVIX , reduces the chance that clots will form and cause TIAs or ischemic strokes. (Platelets are tiny cell-like particles in the blood that help it clot in response to damaged blood vessels.)
The degree of narrowing in the carotid arteries helps doctors estimate the risk of a stroke or subsequent TIAs and thus determine the treatment. If people are thought to be at high risk (for example, if the carotid artery is narrowed at least 70%), an operation to widen the artery (called carotid endarterectomy) may be done to reduce the risk (see see Surgery). Carotid endarterectomy usually involves removing atheromas and clots in the internal carotid artery. However, the operation can trigger a stroke because the operation may dislodge clots or other material that can then travel through the bloodstream and block an artery. However, after the operation, the risk of stroke is lower for several years than it is when drugs are used.
In other narrowed arteries, such as the vertebral arteries, endarterectomy may not be possible because the operation is riskier to perform in these arteries than in the internal carotid arteries.
If people are not healthy enough to have surgery, angioplasty with stenting (see Fig. 1: Understanding Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)) may be done. For this procedure, a thin, flexible tube (catheter) with a balloon at its tip is threaded into the narrowed artery. The balloon is then inflated for several seconds to widen the artery. To keep the artery open, doctors insert a tube made of wire mesh (a stent) into the artery.

User Review: The North Face Men's Blue Kazoo
Source: bought it new
Light, warm, and user friendly! Extra fiber fill in just the right places. Unique stuff compression sack allows it to fit well in bottom section of pack.
- Down warmth with fiber fill under hips and shoulders help keep loft.
- Same as most lightweight bags, zipper flap gets caught sometimes.
This is one of the best bags I've owned. Lightweight, warm down fill is supported by fiber fill in the typical compression spots (hips, shoulders, feet). Comfort range is great; from snow to stars, it keeps you comfortable.
The unique stuff/compression sack is such that when utilized properly compresses bag in to sort of a U-shaped football that fits well in the lower storage pocket of my Osprey by "curving" around my waist.
You can spend more, but unless you're planning on sub-0, no tent weather this bag is truly an "all season" bag.

Working with tiles, badges, and toast notifications (Windows Store apps using C#/VB/C++ and XAML)
Note Not using C#/VB/C++? See Working with tiles, badges, and toast notifications (Windows Store apps using JavaScript and HTML).
The topics contained in this section demonstrate concrete tasks that you'll commonly perform when designing your tiles, updating those tiles and their badges through notifications, designing and sending toast notifications, and interacting with the lock screen.
In these topics, we'll discuss these elements:
- Tiles, which are an app's representation on the Start screen. Tiles can be "live", which means that the content that they display can change in response to notifications. An app can also have one or more secondary tiles, which provide direct links into specific views or experiences within the app.
- Badges, which are shown on tiles to indicate an app's state or status. You can set the badge to show either a number or a small image (glyph), depending on the information that you want to convey.
- Toast notifications, which are app-specific pop-up notifications.
Each of these elements can be updated through several notification mechanisms:
- Local notifications, which use only local text and images. These notifications can be as-needed or scheduled to appear at a specific time.
- Periodic notifications, which use text and images retrieved on a regular basis from a cloud-based service.
- Push notifications, which sends text and images from a cloud server to the user's device.
What you'll find in both creating and delivering tiles, badges, and toast notifications is that the code for each follows a similar pattern and set of APIs. Often, the difference between dealing with each of them barely extends beyond a change in the class name. This uniformity in coding patterns will speed your familiarity with these features; if you know how to send a push notification to a tile, then you know how to send a badge or toast push notification as well.
These topics assume that you have a working knowledge of tile and notification concepts and terminology. For more information, see the overviews under Tiles, badges, and notifications.
If you'd like to try working with tiles and notifications and other key Windows 8 features, download the hands-on labs for Windows 8. These labs provide a modular, step-by-step introduction to creating a sample Windows Store app in the programming language of your choice (JavaScript and HTML or C# and XAML).
In this section
Topic | Description |
This section shows you how to define tile or badge content and send that content as a notification. The content uses local notifications, which are the simplest notifications to implement. Once you understand the basics of tiles and badges, you can apply that knowledge to sending notifications through the other delivery methods: scheduled, periodic, and push. | |
This section shows you how to use secondary tiles, which enable a user to pin specific content or experiences from an app to the Start screen, to have direct access to that content or experience. | |
This section shows you how to define and send a toast notification, which is a pop-up notification that appears in the upper-right corner of your screen (upper-left corner for right-to-left languages) to allow the app to communicate with the user whether the user is in another app, on the Start screen, or on the desktop. These actions are demonstrated using local notifications, which are the simplest notifications to implement. Once you understand the basics of toast construction and use, you can apply that knowledge to sending notifications through the other delivery methods: scheduled, periodic, and push. | |
Examples given in the Creating tiles and badges and Sending toast notifications sections demonstrate the use of local notifications. Local notifications allow you to update your tiles and badges and send toast notifications while your app is running, using text and image resources stored on the device that the app is running on. This section extends that information to discuss the other mechanisms available for you to provide tile, badge, and toast content: scheduled, periodic, and push notifications. | |
This topic discusses initial troubleshooting steps you should take when you encounter problems with tile, toast, and badge notifications, including the various notification methods: local, push, periodic, and scheduled notifications. |

Jul 19, 2011, 03.27 PMby danii97
on the page set up on the printing window, change the Page Scaling to "Tile all pages" instead of what it automatically clicks which is usually "Scale to Fit" or something along those lines

Do you know the "American Size" to this dress? I wear a juniors size 7 and would love to make it!
Jul 19, 2011, 02.00 AMby danii97
A juniors size 7 should convert to a Medium in this pattern, if you want to be for sure, you can look over the sizing chart from the website the pattern is from here: http://m-sewing.com/patterns-catalog/howtos/our-size-charts.html

AC Environmental Council Holds Press Conference at City Hall, Thursday, August 11, 10:00 amPlanning Commission Public Hearing on Americas Cup, Noon, City Hall Room 400
See some of our news coverage from this press conference here.
San Francisco Environmentalists and neighborhood groups plan to urge San Francisco Planning Commissioners at a public hearing on Thursday, August 11, to make improvements in the draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the 34th Americas Cup. The Environmental Council a coalition of more than thirty organizations is concerned that the Draft EIR underestimates the expected impacts of the event, and will not be able to ensure that the Bay Areas air, water, and sensitive shorelines are protected. The council was formed to work with the City to achieve a green and sustainable sailing event and shoreline development.
Public comment will be accepted at the Planning Commission meeting, which starts at noon, but the item is scheduled for late in the agenda. Written comments are due August 25. Click here for the Planning Commission agenda.The City has recognized publicly that large crowds, thousands of spectator boats, dredging to accommodate super yachts, a cruise terminal and various building projects are likely to cause significant air and water pollution, as well as transportation impacts within and leading into the City. Members of the Council have been working cooperatively with one another and with City staff for the past six months to identify and address the expected impacts of the event.
So far, the city's environmental review does not do enough to protect our air and water from the expected side effects of the Americas Cup, added Teri Shore, Program Director of Turtle Island Restoration Network. Air pollution from spectator boats and cruise ships will be significant, but cleaner fuel and engine standards are not required. It seems that our concerns and recommendations for greening the event have not yet been incorporated.
We made a commitment to assist the City in their effort to host a successful Americas Cup event in a very short timeframe, said Deb Self, executive director of San Francisco Baykeeper. Weve had experts in natural resources, bay ecology and habitat, transportation and neighborhood and historic resources provide detailed written input to the City. Unfortunately, the groups say, very little of that expertise has been incorporated into the draft document, raising concerns that the City may not be able to meet the ambitious timetable theyve set. It takes longer to fix an inadequate document than it does to write one correctly in the first place said Deb Self. We really need to take care of the shortcomings of this document now, before it gets rushed to final approval.Among the groups sounding the alarm are the South End Rowing Club and Dolphin Club, which are located at Aquatic Park, a location for some Americas Cup activities. The Draft EIR failed to recognize the events impacts to 2,000 swimmers and rowers who use Aquatic Park regularly, said Ken Coren, Vice President of the Dolphin Club, which has been located in Aquatic Park since the 19th Century. Its just not appropriate use this historic maritime park for super yachts and a floating video jumbotron.Other major impacts of concern are crowds in sensitive upland habitats in the Presidio, the loss of shoreside power for visiting cruise ships, water quality impacts from boatyards and increased trash in the Bay, and interactions between marine mammals and visiting watercraft.Imagine having the Blue Angels and Fleet Week non-stop for nine weeks, said Jennifer Clary of San Francisco Tomorrow, the coordinator of the Council. Everyone who lives in the City understands the impacts of those events. We want the Citys plan to do the same.##The Environmental Councils purpose is to ensure that Americas Cup is a benefit for San Francisco Bay and its surrounding neighborhoods and historic resources, in both the short and long term.

Neighbours pay tribute to elderly couple found dead in house fire in Fallow Court Avenue, North Finchley
11:59am Tuesday 22nd January 2013 in News By Natalie O'Neill
Distraught neighbours have paid tribute to an elderly couple who were found dead in a house fire this morning.
Six fire engines and approximately 35 firefighters were called to tackle the blaze in Fallow Court Avenue, North Finchley, shortly after 6am.
The body of an elderly woman, who was believed to be 80-years-old, was found in the kitchen and the body of a man in a first floor bedroom of the semi-detached house.
Murann Kelly who lives opposite the house, said: "It's just awful. She was like a mother to me and now she's gone.
"I was having a cup of tea and a croissant with her yesterday. I was very friendly with her.
"They had a doctor's appointment at 8am this morning so my kids uncovered their car from the snow. She would have been up at 6am to get ready and showered to go to the doctors.
"She'll be really missed. She was the nicest person and loved her neighbours."
Ms Kelly said the elderly woman was from Cyprus and had lived in the road for more than 45 years. She is believed to have one grown-up daughter who lives in Newcastle.
Eric Maltby who lives in the residential street said: "We didn't get up until 8am. We looked out of the curtain and saw the road was full of fire engines, ambulance and police. There were firemen on the roof of the building.
"It's terrible. A lot of fires seem to happen when the weather is so cold."
The fire was under control at approximately 8am. The London Fire Brigade and Metropolitan Police are investigating the incident.

Comments: Not near as good as it was when it first came out. Used to be soft and worked great. Still has good strong odor that lasts but consistency is different and it turns white. Maybe due to higher demand and shortcuts. Don't like it is much as before. First couple sticks would be a 10/10. Now it's closer to 6/10.
From: Matt: LA
Comments: I bought the shad and I doubt that its helped me catch anything. If you apply this and you drop it, your screwed because it will pick up dirt, lint, and anything else annoying and impossible to get off. It feels kind of like putting glue on a lure and it doesn't ever want to come off.
From: Ross: AL
Comments: I had a small trout about 6 inches try to attack my Fat Ika after I put some of this stuff on! He wouldnt leave it alone! Followed it all the way back to the boat!
From: Rick: San Diego, CA
Comments: Used the shad at Guntersville last year. I was impressed. Never have been a big fan of attractants until now. Application is nice, it dosent get on you your buddy of the boat.
From: Brad: Floyds Knobs, IN
Comments: Haven't tried these on the water yet, but if you do buy them do not open them in the house (at least the crawdad scent). It is VERY potent the second you open the plastic packaging it comes in without even taking the cap off the tube. Also I wouldn't keep it in your pocket like the package says, the smell will stick to you and it's not pleasant ;0)
From: Clint: Lansing, IL
Comments: I fish the California Delta and I switched from BANG to these Fish Sticks and I have to say they are perfect. It doesn't get everywhere and stays on the lure. I really think the fish like it in the Delta waters.
From: RicRoc: Tracy, Ca
Comments: I picked up a couple of these at the 2010 Bass Master Classic on Lay Lake, and I am a huge fan and believe in them. Fish tend to hit my soft plastics aggressively with these, compared to without them. Fish also hold on to them for longer periods of time, and they last longer than traditional spray ons. Definitely worth the money.
From: Jacob: Baton Rouge, LA

Since 2002, Rock House's system of musical instruction—which comprises DVDs, books, and Web-based lesson support—has helped aspiring rock stars to master strumming guitars, plucking basses, and tickling keyboards to a variety of different genres. Several renowned blues, rock, and metal artists have participated in the Rock House program, including members of Megadeth, The Gary Hoey Band, and Parliament-Funkadelic. In addition to their training materials, Rock House also certifies instructors at local music centers so they can conduct one-on-one private lessons tailored to enhancing students' strengths and neutralizing their weaknesses, such as the inability to destroy a guitar on the first smash.
Creative Music Center's skilled teachers have been nurturing musical talent in students of all ages and skill levels for nearly three decades, earning recognition for their efforts with a Best Music Lessons and Instruments award from Moffly Media readers in 2009. They achieve this high level of instruction by adapting their teaching styles to the needs of each pupil rather than insisting that everyone play Mozart or eat sheet music for breakfast. While private lessons prep students to play everything from the viola to the trombone, teachers also foster camaraderie through group lessons for piano and guitar. Students who haven't hollowed out a baguette to make their own French horn can rent or buy an instrument from the center, which stocks brands such as Yamaha and Fender.
Turnpike Music Garage tends to all musical needs with an impressive line-up of instruments, gear, and lessons. The inventory includes amps, Casio digital pianos, OSP electric drums, and Seagull acoustic guitars. They also rent school-approved band and orchestra instruments. In-house specialists go beyond fixing instruments, they give lessons in guitar, viola, cello, drums, trumpet, and more.
Striding confidently onto the stage, a pintsize foursome breaks into a pitch-perfect rendition of The Beatles' "I Want to Hold Your Hand." At Corner Music's School 4 Rock summer camps, it only takes one week for instructors to ready such students for their moments in the spotlight. Each session, based around a different musical theme, includes rehearsal time and CD-recording sessions before culminating in a performance for family and friends.
Aside from the camps, private lessons improve kids', teens', and adults' skills on instruments from the banjo to the sax. At Corner Music's retail shop, students can rent a guitar or bass guitar for practicing, buy a Fender of their own, or accrue gear, including sheet music, strings, reeds, and tuners.
At The Little Green Tambourine, an environmentally friendly creative-arts studio that promotes active lifestyles, children's imaginations roam freely during unstructured open-play hours. Kids can create artwork from play doh and paint, don dress-up clothes, or spout The Catcher in the Rye soliloquies during dramatic play. The mini ball pit and hula hoops promise to burn off excess energy, and youngsters can train for the import-export business at the train table. During open play parents must remain with their children, but for an additional $5 per session parents may leave their children to be supervised by the staff during drop-off open play. Parents supervise little ones younger than age 3, but can drop off children 3–5 years old in the sunlit studio with sustainable bamboo floors. Registration for drop-off play is required, and reservations for open play are recommended.

Full review
Apple's MacBook Air divided opinion when it launched in 2008. Some were charmed by the machine's razor-thin design and light weight. Others were repulsed by its high price and merely average performance.
The latest iteration of the Air aims to win over the critics by sporting the same super-slim dimensions and aluminium unibody construction as the 2010 model, but adding more powerful components and the latest version of Apple's Mac OS X operating system, 10.7 Lion.
The 13-inch model we tested, with a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5 chip and 256GB of flash storage, can be yours for £1,350. You can add a 1.8GHz Core i7 chip for an extra £100. You can also get the 13-inch model with a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5 chip and 128GB of flash storage for £1,100. The 11-inch models start at £850.
Thin end of the wedge
The design of the Air hasn't changed since last year's model. It's as beautifully thin as ever. At the thickest end of the wedge, the Air measures 17mm, and tapers down to only 3mm. It's so thin that we were afraid it would slice through our delicate, pasty skin.
The aluminium unibody design makes the Air feel incredibly well built and look incredibly stylish. We were unable to find flex in this guy no matter where we shoved our meaty sausage fingers.
The Air is one of the few pieces of tech we get in the office that causes the whole team to gather around and coo in wonder. It's beautifully constructed.
At 1.35kg, the Air isn't the lightest machine around, but that extra weight does help it to feel robust. You could also see this as a security feature -- if it were too light, you wouldn't know if it had been stolen out of your bag until you got home and broke down in tears.
Lift the lid and you'll be met with the classic Apple keyboard. The new Air sees the triumphant return of the backlit keyboard.
We were pretty disappointed to see the backlit keyboard disappear from the previous version of the Air, as it made stalking people on Facebook at 5am much more difficult. Getting up to turn on the light is the sort of sickening physical excess we should all have left behind in the Middle Ages.
The keys are the same size as before and offer the same comfortable typing experience. We're glad to see Apple hasn't messed with a good thing. Apple also hasn't messed with the trackpad. It's large and offers the same slick finger-sliding experience that MacBook users have come to know and love. It supports those all-important multi-touch gestures too.
The 13-inch screen is as gorgeous as the rest of the Air. It has an impressive 1,440x900-pixel native resolution and is almost as bright as the sun. Reading small text on Web pages is perfectly pleasant and sitting back in a comfortable armchair to watch high-definition video is a total joy. Add a warm cup of tea and some kittens to the mix and you've pretty much got our ideal night in.
The new Air is pretty similar to the old one in terms of its ports. There's a multi-format card reader, two USB 2.0 ports and a headphone jack. There's also a Thunderbolt port, which performs the duties of a mini DisplayPort but can transfer video and data at super-fast speeds too. Still, there aren't many peripherals that use Thunderbolt at the moment.
Air power
Our review model had a 1.7GHz, dual-core Intel Core i5 processor with 4GB of RAM. Last year's models made use of Intel Core 2 Duo processors and 2GB of RAM, so we expected a decent increase in performance. That's what we got.
When we ran the Cinebench 11.5 benchmark test, the Air returned a score of 2.24. By comparison, the 13-inch Air we saw last year, with a 1.86GHz Core 2 Duo processor, scored 1.1. The new Air's performance is significantly improved.
The MacBook Pro offers a more powerful range of processors, but the Air is impressively potent for such a thin machine. You'll find browsing and video streaming a breeze, and video and photo editing will also be dealt with admirably.
No longer is the Air slumming it with netbooks in terms of performance. It's challenging the big boys.
With Intel's Core i5 processor, you should be able to tackle some light gaming too. There isn't a dedicated graphics chip, so you probably won't be able to run the latest titles, but older games, such as Half Life 2, should play perfectly well if you dial down the settings slightly.
Navigation is a quick and responsive experience. Using multi-touch gestures to swipe between multiple desktops, each containing various programmes, felt pleasant and never sluggish. Streaming of 1080p videos was also handled well, even while multitasking.
Our Air offers 256GB of flash storage. Flash storage is more compact and resilient than a traditional hard drive, as it contains no moving parts. Such storage also offers a much faster read/write speed, which helps the Air to wake from sleep instantaneously and start up very quickly indeed.
As flash storage consumes so little power, the Air is able to offer great battery life. It can slumber in standby mode for up to 30 days, so you could theoretically pop off on holiday, get a charming tan and not have to worry about pressing that pesky power button when you return. If you're not unconscionably lazy, shutting it down before you leave will be a better bet.
To test the battery, we ran a 1080p video on a continuous loop until the Air ran out of juice. It managed to last a very respectable 3 hours and 40 minutes before waving a little white flag and packing up. Apple reckons you can get 7 hours of Web browsing time on a full charge and we reckon that's pretty accurate.
The battery is completely inaccessible inside the unibody chassis so, if you need to replace it, you'll have to send your little baby to Apple.
Apple's 13-inch MacBook Air is as thin and sleek as ever, but, thanks to the new junk in the trunk, it's much more willing to tackle demanding tasks. You may well have to sell a lung, and potentially a kidney, in order to afford one, but you can rest assured that you'll be buying a quality piece of kit.

Graduated containers are especially useful when mixing products. Semi-translucent, natural polyethylene allows the liquid level to be seen from outside the tanks (the resin used for these tanks meets FDA standards). They handle temperatures up to 140°F. The 25- (T25) and 45-gallon (T45) tanks are lightweight and nestable for tank storage and shipping. The 55-gallon tank (T55) comes with a 3/4" spigot valve already fitted and is not nestable.
All tanks have 5/32" thick walls and ship Ground at dimensional rate. Covers are sold separately.

The project includes storm event monitoring to determine the actual load reduction. The construction will be completed within three years of appropriation of the funds by the Legislature in order to ensure fund remain available. The applicant provides a minimum of 50% of the total project cost in matching funds, of which at least 25% are provided by the local government. The grant funds are used for construction of best management practices, monitoring to determine pollutant load reductions, or public education activities specifically associated with the project and may only occur after the date of contract. Funds spent in advance of contract may be used for match, such as design, land acquisition, and other costs incurred by the applicant.
The criteria for project evaluation and ranking include:
Impairment status of the receiving water body Estimated load reduction of the pollutants of concern Percentage of local matching funds Cost effectiveness based on the cost per pound of Total Nitrogen and/or Total Phosphorus removed per acre treated Inclusion of a robust educational component Whether the local government sponsor has implemented of a dedicated funding source for stormwater management, such as a stormwater utility fee

2011-12 Alabama Series Fast ApproachingThe fall season in Alabama is not all about preparing for football. The XTERRA Alabama Trail Run Series will also start up its new season this fall. The 2011-12 Alabama Series will feature four races of varying distances in some of the state's most picturesque settings. But runners should not be fooled by the beautiful scenery, as the courses are also considered some of the most challenging in all of America. In fact, the "Double Oak Trail" at Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, Ala., was listed as one of the top 25 trails in America by Runner's World Magazine in 2011. That trail (pictured at right) will be used for two races in the Alabama Series during the 2011-12 season. The Alabama Series will open on Sept. 17 at Cheaha State Park in Delta, Ala. The complete schedule is below. Runners of all ages and skill levels can participate in the Alabama Series, as race distances range from 5 kilometers to a full marathon (42 kilometers). Early registration - which comes with a discounted price - for the races is already open at www.dirtyspokes.com and www.xterratrailrun.com. 2011-12 XTERRA Alabama Trail Run Series |

Suction Shwr Holder needs to get a GRIP
By Andi the Consumer Advocate
from Philadelphia, PA
This item's looks are deceiving. I tried placing holder in shower and it initially stuck to the tile wall. Then I placed the shower head into the holder and, minutes later, the holder w/the head attached pulled from the wall, fell to the bottom of the tub, hit/hurt my foot and chipped the tub. I also tried placing the holder, minus the shower head, to see if it would stick and, again, minutes later, it fell off. Would not recommend this product until company redesigns the suction feature...till then, this product sucks, literally!!!

Working with tabs
This episode covers the essential commands for working with Vim's tab pages: opening and closing, switching, and moving them.
I'm running my Core Vim Class online on Wednesday, March 5th. Tickets cost $255, but you can get the earlybird discount of $230 if you buy yours before February 26th.
Opening & closing tabs
The following commands are useful for opening and closing tabs.
command | action |
:tabe[dit] filename |
Open filename in a new tab |
ctrl-W T |
Move current split window into its own tab |
:q |
Close window, closing tab if it contains a single window |
:tabc[lose] |
Close the current tab page and all its windows |
:tabo[nly] |
Close all tabs apart from the current one |
Switching tabs
When you have multiple tabs open, you can switch between them using the mouse, or the following commands:
command | action |
gt |
Move to next tab |
gT |
Move to previous tab |
#gt |
Move to tab number # |
I'm accustomed to the tab switching shortcuts of Firefox, so to port these into my Vim environment, I include the following in my .vimrc:
" For mac users (using the 'apple' key) map <D-S-]> gt map <D-S-[> gT map <D-1> 1gt map <D-2> 2gt map <D-3> 3gt map <D-4> 4gt map <D-5> 5gt map <D-6> 6gt map <D-7> 7gt map <D-8> 8gt map <D-9> 9gt map <D-0> :tablast<CR> " for linux and windows users (using the control key) map <C-S-]> gt map <C-S-[> gT map <C-1> 1gt map <C-2> 2gt map <C-3> 3gt map <C-4> 4gt map <C-5> 5gt map <C-6> 6gt map <C-7> 7gt map <C-8> 8gt map <C-9> 9gt map <C-0> :tablast<CR>
Rearranging tabs
In MacVim, you can rearrange tabs by dragging and dropping them with the mouse. The following commands can be used in Terminal Vim:
command | action |
:tabmove |
Move current tab to the end |
:tabmove 0 |
Move current tab to the beginning |
:tabmove 1 |
Move current tab to become the 2nd tab |

There are no Upcoming Shows listed for this comedian.
Tamer Kattan
Born in Cairo, Egypt Tamer Kattan felt like he moved to the future when he left a 3rd world Islamic country for liberal and sunny California. Every city had a mall. Every home had a color TV and every woman…had a face.
Having an afro, an accent and sweaters with elbow patches made Tamer an easy target for bullying and THAT is where he first discovered comedy. At the ripe old age of 7 he started performing stand up for his class mates.
Having an abusive father gave him the ability to take a bullies punch, but the bullies couldn't take it when he retaliated the only way he knew how: by making them the subjects of his school yard stand up routines.
He is uniquely aware of the human condition and passionately believes that comedy is a weapon of the underdog. Don't miss him live!

"life is a dark cave, Jesus is the flash light, the bible is the batteries and your will to turn the flash light on is your faith"
"if a person is not into the word of God, than God is not in them"
"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
C.S. Lewis
"Christianity is the story of how the rightful King has landed, you might say in disguise, and is calling us all to take part in His great campaign of sabotage"
"Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important."
"Christianity has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and not tried."
G. K. Chesterton
"Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion - it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ"
Billy Graham
"An individual Christian may see fit to give up all sorts of things for special reasons - marriage, or meat, or beer, or cinema; but the moment he starts saying the things are bad in themselves, or looking down his nose at other people who do use them, he has taken the wrong turning."
"Christianity is a world that is a great sculptor's shop. We are the statues and there a rumor going around the shop that some of us are some day going to come to life."
"The purpose of Christianity is not to avoid difficulty, but to produce a character adequate to meet it when it comes. It does not make life easy; rather it tries to make us great enough for life."

I also tried installing with Visual Studio closed, same result. Fails for both 2010 and 2012. And now, in 2012, when I click the Quick Launch box, Visual Studio crashes. When will this be fixed ? 嘎嘎~不错的工具。 IE9 is reporting a virus on this version (2.7.41101.299) I also have NOD32 installed. Essential tool for other tools. Very Useful !!!! It's very nice when will command-line 2.7.1 be included since package restore is better supported in that version? we've got the same issue when updating MOQ from 4.1.1308.2321 to 4.1.1309.919, restore packages doesn't work. As GaryWoodfine said, 2.7 breaks some stuff. Update seems to have totally killed my Nuget facility! Not really a productivity tool when it has slowed me down! nice |

Despite our love for nostalgia, we've been hesitant to embrace this trend as of yet but now we're dying to scoop up a pair in every color. After all, the flip-flop's edgier cousin looks equally as fresh for day or night. Check out some of our favorite finds:
