Law professor wins provincial excellence award
The Family Law Section of the Ontario Bar Association (OBA) honoured Nicholas Bala (Law) with their 2009 Award for Excellence in Family Law at a ceremony in Toronto on Wednesday, June 10.
"I am deeply honoured at these awards from the legal profession," says Professor Bala. "They reflect important recognition not only for myself, but for the Faculty of Law at Queen's and for the importance of the family law academy. It is recognition of the contributions that family law teachers have as mentors for future members of the profession, and as scholars who can contribute to increasing understanding of the effects of the justice system on children and families, and in helping to reform it."
"Throughout his legal career, Professor Bala has been a leader in teaching and advancing family law in our province and across North America," says Tom Dart, chair of the OBA Family Law Section. "His contributions to the body of law, legal education and his community are truly remarkable. We are honoured to present him with the 2009 Award for Excellence in Family Law."
The award is presented annually in recognition of a family law lawyer who has made exceptional contributions and achievements in any or all of the following categories:

Text translation holds other challenges, and they vary by language, Sankar said. A common way to refine that process is a statistical approach, comparing large documents that humans have translated between two languages. But some pairs of languages have more translated documents available than others, so accuracy varies, he said.
Where real-time translation is closer to reality is in specific subject areas such as business, technology, law and travel assistance. For example, transcribing and translating prepared speeches that cover certain subjects is about 90 percent accurate in real time now, Sankar said. Impressively, Samsung says S-Translator's vocabulary is not limited to travel subjects.
Another caveat about translation is that supporting a long list of languages doesn't necessarily mean the system can translate freely among them all. Because the process relies on translations that have already been done, what matters are language pairs. In S-Translator, U.S. or U.K. English can be mutually translated with each of the eight other included languages: French, German, Italian, Latin-American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, Mandarin and Japanese. In addition, Korean, Mandarin and Japanese can be mutually translated among themselves.
For translation, S-Translator uses Samsung's own technology, not Google Translate or any other third-party platform. One limitation of the system's real-time interpretation is that it requires a data connection to an online translation server. Samsung isn't alone in this, according to Miller at Opus Research. That can be a problem for a feature that's often used, as in Samsung's example, while traveling.
"Unless they're doing stuff locally on the device, a lot of companies are ignoring the fact that having a data connection can sometimes turn out to be pretty expensive," Miller said. A rare exception is Jibbigo, a startup that makes an app for iOS and Android. Jibbigo comes as a free app that calls out to a server, but users can buy modules for offline translation of specific sets of languages. S-Translator on the Galaxy S4 does include translations of certain useful phrases built into the phone.
Both speech recognition and translation are steadily getting better, Sankar and Miller said. For one thing, software based on statistical models learns from each translation it does, Miller said.
Cisco sees real-time translation of videoconferences on the horizon, Sankar said, though within the bounds of something like a prepared, formal discussion between two diplomats.
"We believe here at Cisco that there will come a day when we will be able to have a Web conference with somebody on the other side of the world, across language boundaries, in a very natural conversational and fluent style," Sankar said. The bad news is, his forecast for that accomplishment is five to 10 years.
"You just have to exhibit patience and understand that it is not perfect, but they constantly improve," Miller said.

Although curiosity about the Mormon Church has reached a fever pitch with Romney's ascension as the Republican Party's presidential nominee, most people remain relatively clueless about the American-born religion.
To find out more about Mormons and their beliefs, Business Insider traveled to upstate New York earlier this month for the Hill Cumorah Pageant, the flagship pageant of the LDS Church, which takes place on the hill where Mormonism's founder, Joseph Smith, is believed to have found the Golden Plates that he later translated into the Book of Mormon.
Despite the almost entirely Mormon cast and audience, the Hill Cumorah show, America's Witness for Christ, is actually written for non-Mormons. It amounts to a Book of Mormon 101 course, depicting pivotal scenes from the church's seminal sacred text, which Mormons believe to be a "record of God's dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the Americas" and consider to be a "volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible," according to the Book of Mormon introduction.
We've broken down the story here in photographs. While it should not be taken as a comprehensive account of the Book of Mormon, it's an easy-to-digest intro for those who aren't quite ready to take on the whole tome yet.

Could the best rugby players in the world be coming to Croydon?
Updated 3:09pm Friday 14th March 2014 in Rugby News By Andrew Bloss, Reporter
Could we be seeing some of the best rugby players in the world coming to Croydon next year?
The dream took a step towards reality after Trinity School was put on the approved list of potential team bases for the Rugby World Cup 2015.
England Rugby 2015 visited the school last autumn and carried out a detailed inspection of the site to make sure it was suitable.
There are 65 potential training venues on the approved list with 20 teams taking part in the tournament.
The organisers want 50 venues to be available throughout the tournament though.
Bases on the approved list are not guaranteed to hose teams but they will be used to provide the competing nations with their team base options.
Trinity School had to prove their facilities met international standard, which included indoor and outdoor training facility, a gym, indoor swimming pool and a hotel.
For Trinity, that has involved partnering with the Selsdon Park Hotel.
Aaron Liffchak, Head of Rugby at Trinity, said: "I am delighted that Trinity School has been chosen on the approved list of Team Base's by England Rugby 2015.
"It would be a tremendous honour to host a team for Rugby World Cup 2015 and it is a fantastic endorsement of our top class facilities.
"Rugby has been going from strength to strength at Trinity and having a team on site would be inspirational for our boys."

Biographic Information:
Breck Parkman was born and raised in the South, but since 1971, California has been his home. An award-winning archaeologist with over 30 years of professional experience, Breck is also a writer, photographer, and avid world traveler. Currently, he lives in the hills overlooking the famed Valley of the Moon in Sonoma County with his wife, Diane Askew, a professional photographer originally from England, their son, Jon Aidan, and the family's two best friends, Yogi Bear and Yukon the Dog.
A long time employee of California State Parks, Breck serves as a Senior State Archaeologist. He is assigned to the Diablo Vista, Marin, and Russian River Districts. The several dozen State Parks that Breck works in are centered about San Francisco Bay. Since this is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful areas in the world, Breck is very happy to work there. His office is located across the road from General Mariano Vallejo's Petaluma Adobe, a National Landmark constructed in the mid-1830s during the Mexican Republic Era.
Breck joined California State Parks on January 2, 1981, beginning as a State Archaeologist with the Resource Protection Division in Sacramento. During that time, he directed large-scale cultural resource surveys for General Plans in State Parks throughout California. Breck is especially fond of the time he spent working at Cuyamaca Rancho State Park and Torrey Pines State Reserve in San Diego County, at Henry Coe State Park in central California, and at Olompali State Historic Park and Annadel State Park in the northern San Francisco Bay area. In 1983, Breck became the State's first Regional Archaeologist when he took a position at the Northern Regional Headquarters in Santa Rosa. In that role, Breck helped manage the cultural resources of about seventy State Parks in northern California. In 1993, Breck became the first District Archaeologist when he transferred to the Silverado District Office in Sonoma. The Silverado District gradually evolved into the current Diablo Vista District. Breck's position has not changed that much over the years. It involves strategic planning and project review, environmental compliance, field surveys and excavations, collections management, contract management, Native American contacts, and public interpretation among other things.
Breck Parkman, Senior State Archaeologist for California State Parks
at Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, 1981.
Breck began his professional training as a Pre-Med student at the University of Georgia in 1970, but soon realized that he was more interested in archaeology than medicine. He moved to California the following year, where he eventually earned his B.A. and M.A. degrees in Anthropology from California State University, Hayward. While at Hayward, Breck was a student of many gifted anthropologists to whom he is greatly indebted. His professors included Drs. Alan Almquist, Barbara Anderson, Lowell Bean, Peter Claus, Glenn Custred, Edward Jay, Lindy Mark, Robert McKnight, George Miller, and Clarence Smith.
Breck has conducted fieldwork throughout California, in the Pacific Northwest, the Canadian Plains, the South Coast of Peru, and in Central Siberia. His research interests have taken him around the world, especially to the countries of the Pacific Rim. Breck is particularly interested in rock art studies, symbolism, and shamanism. Many of his publications concern these subjects. Other interests of his include such topics as Rancholabrean megafauna, paleoecology, Paleoindians, bedrock mortars, antlered dragons in New World mythology, Elizabethan California, the Russian American Company, antique silverware, the archaeology of the 1960s, the history and influence of the Beats, the life and craft of Bauhaus master potter Marguerite Wildenhain, and the sculptures of modernist Benny Bufano. Currently, Breck is involved in a multi-year research effort to identify what he believes to be mammoth rubbing rocks of the late Pleistocene. He is also working to record the archaeological history of a c. 1967-1969 hippie commune at Olompali State Historic Park and a c. 1961-1969 U.S. Marine Corps Reserve war games training site at Annadel State Park.
Breck has published numerous scientific articles in American and foreign journals and presented scores of professional papers at conferences as faraway as Flagstaff, Arizona, Calgary, Canada, Moscow, Russia, and Darwin, Australia. His work has been featured in countless interviews with newspapers, television, and radio stations throughout California and the world. As a civil servant working in the name of the people, Breck feels compelled to share his work with the public, something that he does regularly through various campfire programs, public talks, and the news articles generated by his contacts with the press.
Breck is a past President of the Society for California Archaeology and a long time Research Associate at the Archaeological Research Facility, University of California at Berkeley. From 1996-2000, he served as the Director of the UNESCO-sponsored Fort Ross – Global Village Project, which brought American and Russian school children together on the Internet in the study of history and archaeology at Fort Ross State Historic Park. In 1998, as part of the Global Village undertaking, Breck led a delegation of California students to Siberia, where they lived with Russian families and participated in archaeological research near Lake Baikal. In 1999, he helped bring Russian children to California, where they participated in archaeological research at Fort Ross.
Breck enjoys his work as an archaeologist and he believes that archaeology has an important role to play in the future. He feels that by studying, conserving, and interpreting our planet's cultural resources, we help to ensure a healthier and more understanding society that is both aware and proud of its cultural heritage and diversity. Indeed, archaeology informs us where we have been and it provides us with the information necessary for planning our future course. For Breck, the Human Story weaves together the histories of the famous and the forgotten, those important few who remain illuminated on center stage long after their passing, and the many others whom history has pushed toward the edges of visibility. Upon this scene comes archaeology, the detective science that sleuths its way through the back alleyways and dark corners of the past, searching out clues to the events that transpired there, and from those clues, retelling the forgotten acts of humanity. California is one of the most interesting stages on which this drama has been played out. That is why Breck enjoys being a California State Archaeologist.

BARTONVILLE, Ill. -- Ameren has reached an agreement with Dynegy to take over the companies Illinois power generating business.
Ameren will not receive any cash in return for the five coal-fired plants but the company will benefit from transferring $825 million dollars in debt to Houston, Texas based Dynegy.
Among the plants being transferred is the Edwards coal plant in Bartonville. Members of the "Heart of Illinois Sierra Club" and "Peoria families against Toxic Waste" are concerned that the change in ownership will slow down the clean-up process.
"We think rather than seeing this go forward and shift again, it's time for Ameren to shutter the plant, begin looking at how to make a just transition for the workers and how to clean up the site so it can be used for something that represents the direction that Central Illinois needs to go," said "Peoria Families Against Toxic Waste" member Tracy Fox.
The deal is still subject to regulatory approvals and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year.

Lack of Risk Assessment Practices; Unclassified and Unmanaged Data; Understaffed and Underfunded
BETHESDA, Md., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- SANS announces results of its inaugural survey of security in institutions of higher education, in which nearly 300 higher education IT professionals answered questions about the challenges of making their environments secure while maintaining the openness needed by faculty, staff, students and benefactors in traditional educational models. The survey was sponsored by Alien Vault, Tenable Network Security and Trend Micro.
The majority of respondents represented IT staff working predominately at US institutions: 48% at public universities, 19% at private universities, 10% at private colleges and 7% at two-year public/community college institutions. They represent a good blend of security management and technical security roles.
"IT staff at colleges and universities always feel as if they are isolated-that no one else faces the same challenges, but this isn't the case," says survey author Randy Marchany. "Our message from this survey is that you're not alone. All of us share the same problems in creating and maintaining a secure campus."
Of the organizations represented in the survey, only 45% have formal risk assessment and remediation policies in place. The situation is worse in smaller institutions, where only 31% have such policies. Yet all respondents say their organizations are required to secure a variety of personally identifying information across different types of networks, with often competing privacy requirements.
Yet, only 57% classify their sensitive data and provide guidelines for safe data handling, and even fewer (55%) define appropriate owner, user, and administrative roles.
Staffing and budgeting for institutional security are key reasons why organizations are failing to protect their confidential data, according to the survey. While 64% believe they need 1–5 FTEs of additional staff, 43% believe they cannot pay premium rates for skills needed. Lack of budget, selected by 73% of respondents, is deemed a cause of not being able to maintain or increase IT staffing.
"Despite these concerns, institutions are working to provide open and secure educational environment to their clients, the faculty, staff, students, parents and benefactors," Marchany adds.
SANS will release the full set of results at a webcast featuring Randy Marchany, Paul Asadoorian, Patrick Bedwell, and Christopher Budd on Tuesday, June 17, at 1 PM EDT. Register for the complimentary webcast at http://www.sans.org/info/161335

DALLAS – After Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price hurled criticism at him last week, Dallas ISD Superintendent Mike Miles got strong support Tuesday from one of the biggest boosters of the city's schools: Mayor Mike Rawlings.
The lesson plan for improving the Dallas Independent School District, the mayor says, is to stay the course.
"Mike Miles' plan to make this work is the right plan. He's focused on getting a great principal in every school and getting great teachers in every classroom, and that's what we need for these kids," Rawlings said.
The mayor, who has taken more interest in education than his predecessors, spoke out after Price denounced the leadership of the new superintendent. Price told Miles and the school board, "This district seems to be in terror."
Price singled out the sudden recent resignation of longtime Assistant Superintendent Shirley Ison-Newsome, who is considered a Price political ally. Rawlings wouldn't say if he thinks Price is wrong, but noted that that it's part of making improvements.
"Change is difficult. By nature, by definition, you can't just expect to do something different and everything, everybody's going to be happy with it," the mayor said.
Price wasn't available to comment further at Commissioners Court on Tuesday. Rawlings said school improvements ultimately will be judged not by who's on the job or who isn't.
"The thing that we've got to look at to determine whether we're in the right or the wrong direction is the performance our kids in the classroom," he said.
And Mike Rawlings thinks Mike Miles can make that happen.

Reviews for Black Bean Brownies
Sort By :
I thought this brownie was very good! It was moist, fudgy and a great taste for a healthy brownie. I used egg substitute and only used a quarter of a cup of chocolate chips in the batter. All in all, this was a great brownie! I'm going to make a few copies and take it to my Weight Watchers meeting.
I came across a Black Bean Brownie recipe in a newspaper, but it called for 1/2 CUP baking soda - that had to be a mistake, right? Still, the notion intrigued me... So after looking at a bunch of Black bean brownie recipes I settled on this one. It came out perfect! I would call these "adult brownies" because they are very intensely chocolatey; for kids or people with more of a sweet tooth, maybe using milk chocolate chips or adding 1/4 cup white sugar might work. Or plop a scoop of ice cream on them, or enjoy them without having to share! I can't get over the texture, it is very smooth, not dry, and yet not raw. Usually my brownies are either over- or under-done. And I still cannot believe there are beans in there and no flour. (I have no dietary restrictions, but I like the 'thrill' of hiding beans in brownies. I like food that tastes good, is easy to make, and doesn't need special equipment/ingredients.) This recipe is a keeper. I will make it again, next time I need a chocolate fix. It is THAT good. I signed on to this site just to give it my thumbs up!
Not quite as moist as I expected, but still good. A nice choice for my friends who are on gluten-free diets.
This is a wonderful Gluten Free alternative. I really could not tell this is made with black beans and it has a nice consistency much like fudgy cake brownies. The flavor is very good, not to sweet. Going to try some different variations like Mint brownies (use mint extract in place of vanilla) or using white chocolate chips and add some nuts. They also take no time at all to make since you just throw everything in the food processor!
Best Brownies I ever ate!

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) - A Chinese restaurant called The Joy Luck is planned for the former Kashmir Indian Restaurant space in the Highlands.
"We are going to aim for authentic dishes not offered anywhere else in Louisville," said Alvin Lin of AJ Investment Group, the family company behind the planned restaurant.
AJ Investment filed paperwork with the Louisville Metro Revenue Commission on Nov. 26 to operate a full-service restaurant at 1285 Bardstown Road.
Lin, a Lexington native, said he and his parents plan to open the restaurant in January, with his father serving as chef. They are working on a menu and logo, he said.
The Joy Luck will offer duck dishes cooked in three different styles: Cantonese, Taiwanese and Beijing, Lin said. Entrees will be in the $14-$18 range with an emphasis on local ingredients, he said.
Lin, a 24-year-old University of Kentucky graduate, said his family has operated long-closed restaurants including August Moon and Ming Garden in Lexington and Asian Pearl in Louisville. Asian Pearl was on Hurstbourne Parkway and closed in the late 1990s or early 2000s, he said.
Kashmir had been in the space at 1285 Bardstown Road for a decade before moving two doors up the street to 1277 Bardstown Road following a fire in 2010, according to a review last year in Leo Weekly.
MJW Inc., which owns 1285 Bardstown Road, took out a building permit in 2011 to make $70,000 in upgrades following the fire. Lin said his group has signed a lease with Marian Wilbers, who is listed in state records as the sole person behind MJW Inc.
A man who answered the phone Monday at the Crescent Hill address of MJW said Wilbers would have no comment.

ClimateOne zings PA on housing
Original post made by Steve Raney on Mar 28, 2013
Gabriel Metcalf, the Executive Director of San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR) started off by stating that climate was the number one challenge of our era. "Coastal cities are facing an existential threat that we are not prepared to deal with."
At around 15 minutes into the podcast, Carl Shannon, Managing Director at Tishman Speyer, laments that there are suburban cities with real-estate markets that will support dense transit oriented housing to minimize per-capita GHG. "You look at downtown Palo Alto. We could build 15 story condos on University Avenue. We could sell that out overnight. But there is no political will. Palo Alto has that living, thriving downtown that people want. It has office rents that are the highest in the Bay Area. So economically, the engine is there. But you have to find economic desire and political will."
Host Greg Dalton: "Gabe Metcalf, you have to presume that people in Palo Alto get climate change. They get the carbon imperative. And they'd like to solve the problem … just not in their backyard. People are not willing to make personal tradeoffs for the common good."
Gabriel Metcalf: "I don't think they do get it. Because I just can't believe that if people understood the impacts of their actions they would be making this choice that will be so murderous on future populations. If they understood, they would allow new residents to live in apartments in their city. I can't believe that human nature is bad - if they understood the impact of denying that [smart growth to protect the climate - the core of modern regional planning practice] then they would change their mind." "There is somehow the idea that you should not have to be inconvenienced by even seeing a new building within your line of sight. That is too much to ask for the sake of fighting climate change. I know they're not Republicans. I just don't know what it is."
Greg Dalton: "We got in here first and close the door after us."
Dalton then quotes Paly High grad Peter Calthorpe's statements about NIMBYism opposing new residents based on class and race.

Not sure the NIMBys opposition is based on race or class. I think it is just a matter of "we have ours, to hell with envy one else", while remiscing about how wonderful things were 10/20/30 years ago.
Times change, but for some long time residents hate change and therefore are against new things and new people
on Mar 28, 2013 at 8:11 pm
Ii think Palo Alto residents get climate change and I don't think to resistance to dense housing is just NIMBY. I was in San Jose last week and there are some very nice looking, huge apartment buildings. Unlike some of the proposed spots in PA, these complexes are on wide streets ( think El Camino, not University or Alma), the are more traditional in style (not the "statement" buildings that our City Council and ARB seem to want, just warm buildings with amentities like gyms, pools and open spaces with pretty landscaping).
The big difference is that the buildings are located on streets that can handle their mass and they are appealing to the masses and not just design professionals. University is a small two lane street, it could definetly handle taller 3-4 story buildings, but 15 stories would turn University into a cold cave. Builiding large apartment complexes on Bayhore, Page Mill, Foothill, or El Camino, ( what about all that open land that Stanford owns along El Camino?) makes sense.
on Mar 28, 2013 at 8:23 pm
Due to the fact that all of us paid outrageous prices for our homes, some of them substandard buildings on substandard lots, just to be here and get the best public education for our children, we feel that a certain quality of living should be maintained for all that expense.
Considering that most of the air pollution here is due to the fact that more people work in PA , than live here, and all those people drive here, and some of them steal our parking in front of our houses, the thought of high density living here makes many of us cringe. Why? Because we are already sacrificing so much to be here, and the crowding/crime/traffic that high density developments and urbanization cause will just make living here miserable.
At that point, it would no longer be a sacrifice to pay mega-bucks to live here, but simply not worth it, no longer desirable, aside from the education standpoint. And chances are, that will deteriorate, too, with crowded schools.
Our property values, so hard fought for and earned, would drop drastically, causing many of us to lose our investment. Our school quality would probably drop, making our sacrifices in vain.
Of course we want to maintain the status quo, otherwise all the hard work, sacrificing, and prioritizing would be for nothing. it simply would not be wrth it to destroy the standard of living here, which for many of us is not that good in spite of the money spent, to allow high density developments.
Back in the nineties, a friend in the insurance business told me that the way the insurance companies look at it, high density housing equals greater risk, greater crimes, more claims, bad investment. To make up for that, owners of such housing pay disproportionately high rates.

Rezone to Sheridan Elem. from McFee Elementary
As a parent who lives in Brenwood Park , I do not feel as though our children should be rezoned to Sheridan Elementary for the upcoming school year 2008-2009. Many people, including us, moved into Brenwood Park with the understanding that new schools would be built in the area but rezoning to a school further from our current school is rediculous. Next year will be the 3rd YEAR in a row that we have been rezoned. As parents, pressure is always put on us to keep the stability in the lives of our children. How can we do this when they are continuously being educationally unstable by rezoning by the district Our subdivision is literally across the street from McFee and we would be passing McFee in order to get to Sheridan . This does not make sense. How can we try to get our parents and students involved in the schools when we are constantly being rezoned It hard to do when parents know they are being rezoned every year. We would like the option to stay at McFee Elementary for the upcoming school year 2008-09.

'Level playing field' for IVF call (From Hampshire Chronicle)

'Level playing field' for IVF call
12:19am Thursday 15th May 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
The health watchdog has called for an end to the postcode lottery of fertility treatments in England.
Last year the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (Nice) set out a list of treatments that should be available to those seeking help with conception on the NHS.
But it has emerged that many organisations are not providing all of these treatments - for instance it is recommended that infertile couples are offered three full cycles of IVF treatment, but figures have shown that many local health bodies are providing just one, or none at all.
So some couples will be forced to pay out thousands of pounds for treatment when others get it for free.
Now Nice has set out a new set of draft statements to help level the playing field so all patients have access to the same treatments.
The quality standards highlight key areas where improvements are most needed.
The organisation has set out 10 statements which health bodies are required to consider when they plan and deliver NHS services.
These include issues of access for patients and treatments available to them.
People should be referred to a fertility specialist after a year of unsuccessfully trying for a baby, or sooner if there is a known clinical cause, the standards say.
They also recommend that women under 40 who have been trying to conceive are offered three full cycles of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and those aged 40 to 42 are offered one cycle.
The quality standards also say that people who are of a reproductive age who are preparing to have treatment for cancer should be offered to have their eggs or sperm frozen and preserved.
Professor Gillian Leng, deputy chief executive at Nice, said: "Infertility is a recognised medical condition that can affect people of any age and has a potentially devastating effect on people's lives. It can cause significant distress, depression and can possibly lead to the breakdown of relationships.
"Our updated guidance which published last year provides clear recommendations on the most clinically and cost effective way to treat people with fertility problems. Unfortunately, we know that not all areas are following our guidance to the letter. This creates variations in treatment within the NHS, which is disappointing and goes against the fundamental aims of the NHS.
"The quality standard that we are currently developing should help healthcare services to focus on the key areas of care that need to be addressed most urgently and ensure that the right support and treatment is available to those who need it."
The standards are now subject to public consultation. The final quality standard is expected to be published in October.

I've written to Hugh Bayley (MP) and Julian Sturdy (Councillor) but to no avail. It simply isn't fair that we have to pay out thousands of pounds for the treatment and others get 3 cycles paid for. Fair enough some only get one round of treatment paid for, but they should make this fair and consistent across the country. Why are we in the minority - it just doesn't make any sense.

Bottle from Bert's
Pours a solid dark brown with a decent sized creamy khaki colored head that recedes slowly leaving some spotty lace. Smells of caramel, brown sugar, and milk chocolate mostly, with a hint of grassy earthy hops to counter. The flavor follows the aroma quite well. Dark sugary sweet maltiness with plenty of milk chocolate flavor. Light grassy astringency mixed in with some earthy hop is noticeable but not detrimental. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. Pretty nice brown ale, I look forward to trying some more from this brewery.

4/5 rDev +9%
From a 650 ml. bottle dated 19 Dec 13. Sampled relatively fresh on February 22, 2014.
This gets a solid grade for the way it looks based on the style it represents. Lovely chestnut and mahogany brown with a significant soapy tan head and a flickering of ruby red up to the light.
I pick up the aroma instantly before putting my nose to the glass. It is a cavalcade of toasted malts, nuttiness, and brown sugar but little aroma as far as hops go. Still, traditional browns tend not to be hopped up.
The body is medium and fairly carbonated.
Like the aroma there is a nice sweet malty character at first in the taste but then a mild bitterness sneaks in on the backside but never overtakes anything. It is nicely balanced and a good representation of a style that some people love and some people don't love. I happen to be a fan of Browns and I would have this again in a heartbeat.

PLATTSBURGH — Today marks the fourth day of Passover, the middle period of the eight-day festival commemorating Israeli emancipation from slavery in ancient Egypt.
"The first night and second night, we have big dinners," said Rabbi Kari Tuling of Temple Beth Israel in Plattsburgh.
"Chicken is pretty common," Tuling said. "The congregation dinner was fairly traditional — matzah ball soup, gefilte fish, chicken with vegetables and potatoes and a flourless cake for dessert."
During Passover, matzah, unleavened bread, replaces chametz, or leavened bread. Products made from wheat, barley, rye, oats or spelt are forbidden. So that means a fast from cakes, pancakes, crackers, noodles, cookies, bread, pasta and most alcoholic drinks.
"Matzah is flat bread that looks very much like a cracker," Tuling said. "It's one that doesn't go stale. It's always the same dry, crumbly thing. According to the story in Exodus, the Israelites didn't have enough time to bake bread as they were leaving Egypt. Hence, that's why the unleavened bread. The Exodus story said (you) will not have any leavened bread in your house. You're not supposed to have any leavened products. It shouldn't be found in your settlement. Consequently, you're not supposed to own it."
During Passover, traditional Jews purge their kitchens of chametz, which extends to vinegar products.
Matzah is not the most nutritious foodstuff, and neither does it contain much fiber.
"But you can go to town," Tuling said. "There are all kinds of stuff for Passover — cookies, cakes, pickles and gefilte fish. It's a fish cake, really. It's chopped fish with egg and matzah. It's between a meatball and a cake. It's uniquely Jewish. It's tasty. I love them."
Matzah flour can be rolled into balls, usually using chicken fat. Chopped onions can be added to the mixture.

Finally, we updated to 2013 Inventor Professional (64 bit).
Now I have some problems when I run the rule which I created in 2009 (32 bit).
First one is:
I created a rule which is suppressed. I need run it when I save files. The problem is: after I moved to 2013, and when I puch SAVE button, my rule cannot be run.
Does anyone how to solve this problem?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Are you receiving an error message? Can you post it?
What is the rule you're trying to run?
Hello Mike,
Thanks lot for your reply.
Unfortunately, I cannot post my model in. But I am copying the picture and my code as following.
SubMain()DimoutputfileAsStringDimmyFileNameAsStringDimmyOriginalManifoldAsStringDimmyReplaceManifoldAsStringmyFileName=ModelPartNumberoQuestion=MessageBox.Show("Do you want to save "&myFileName&"-E.ipt and "&myFileName&".iam at same time?", "Save", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)IfoQuestion=vbYesTheniLogicVb.RunRule("Manifold", "Save File")myOriginalManifold=ThisDoc.PathAndFileName(False)&"-E.ipt"' without extension'MessageBox.Show("My Original Manifold file is " & myOriginalManifold, "Message")myReplaceManifold=ThisDoc.Path&"\"&myFileName&"-E.ipt"'MessageBox.Show("My Replace Manifold file is " & myReplaceManifold, "Message")outputfile=ThisDoc.Path&"\"&myFileName&".iam"Component.Replace("Manifold", myReplaceManifold, True)ThisDoc.Document.SaveAs(outputfile, True)Component.Replace("Manifold", myOriginalManifold, True)EndIfEnd Sub
I could run above code correctly if I seperately run it. But now I just want when I push "Save" button, the rule will be run.
If you could help to find it out, it will be much appreciated.
Oh, I see what your problem is. The rule wont trigger because it's suppressed. You have to unsuppress the rule in order for it to run when you save.
I assume you have it suppressed because you don't want it to randomly fire while your trying to draw. It shouldn't ever fire, bar on your triggered save event, unless a parameter that is referenced inside of the rule is changed. So, in your case, as long as the ModelPartNumber parameter doesn't get changed, you'll get the behaviour you expect. If you need to be able to change this parameter without triggering the rule, then I would filter the part number through an iProperty. That way you can change the paameter all day without triggering the rule, but still be able to reference it inside of the rule.
I hope all that made sense.
In the rule you posted above, change where you reference the ModelPartNumber parameter to instead reference the Part Number iProperty. This will stop the save rule from running on a change of part number, because properties can not trigger rules. Then unsuppress the save rule.
If you do this, then the only way that the rule will run is if you save the file, or you RMB on the rule in the iLogic browser and click run.
Got! Thanks lot.
It is working now.
And I need change to after Saving to rule the rule. Otherwise, Inventor give me "File Copy Error on Save" which is said "The system cannot find the path specified." when save the original file.

Customer Reviews
Love it, never used one before. I have used it three times up to twelve feet high slowly but steady I will reach twenty feet before hunting season.
This stand has proven excellent so far. I've used it on several occasions and had no problems at all. It's light and has lots of room to stand.
This treestand is amazing. I love the foot rest and the seat. I can sit in the woods for hours in total relaxation. I would definitely recommend this stand to anyone.
Killed two deer out of it the first week I had it. My back doesn't hurt from hauling it out in my hunting area. Trust me after getting hit with an IED while serving our country in Iraq I have a few medical problems with my back. But I do not let them problems get the better of me I just had to change from my old habits to knew ones and one of them was having to get a lighter tree stand with losing the size and space of my other tree stands. Thanks sportsmans guide and thanks ol man tree stand.
A great stand. Very light with a long hike.

Now having the pleasure and privilege of living in Paris, I've picked up a few useful French expressions that at the same time, frankly, I regret having had to learn.
One of these is "champignons" - mushrooms to most of us but also, cross yourself and keep the Devil at bay, mould.
Having spend a good few years living and visiting all sorts of amazing places, like many of us, I have lugged camera gear and used it in some, shall we say, less than ideal places in terms of camera care. The ones linked to "champignons" that spring to mind are North Sulawesi and various bits of Borneo. Sweaty places with high humidity.
Giving my gear a good clean after a recent trip I noticed what I can only describe as a slight bloom on a number of my lenses. Taking these to our local Nikon workshop I learned the dreaded term "champignons". Mould to we English speakers.
The sheer attractiveness of the Nikon saleslady did not quite compensate for the repair quotes: my Nikkor 18-200 almost $200, my Nikkor 80-400 almost $1500 and my beloved Nikkor 60mm, hero of many an underwater image, written off - "not economically repairable".
Lesson learned there: if I'm heading anywhere sweaty again I will be packing re-sealable plastic bags and lots of silica gel.
And I may give up eating champignons. Mind you, the saleslady was cute when she burst out laughing when I confused "champignons" with "cornichons" - gerkins to the rest of us. Easily done eh? One man's mushroom is another man's gherkin.

Ready to sell your home? Make sure your home puts its "best foot forward" by following these steps to help you sell your home more quickly and for more money.
1. Call a Realtor and let him or her know that you plan to move this spring. Find out when he or she recommends you put the sign in your front yard. Make that your target date. The Realtor know the community history and knows when you will have the best chance for success. Ask your Realtor to tell you what to do to get your home ready for the market. If they cannot be specific, then call another agent. This is critical and helps you make the right choices.
2. Declutter! I know you hear that all the time but if you did nothing else but declutter, you would make more and sell faster. Declutter it all. Do not have more than three decorative items on table tops or bookcases. Declutter closets. Give your hangers space between each hanger. Declutter bathrooms and bathroom cabinets. Plan to have a basket in your bathroom. When you get a call saying your home is being shown, put hair dryers and makeup and any loose items that take up space on your counters in the basket and put out of site
3. Replace worn rugs in bathrooms. Go smaller so more floor space shows, Replace shower curtain or make sure it is clean and fresh.
4. Get a pod or a storage unit and start packing. Pack now or pack when your home sells. If you pack now, your home will show better.
5. Garages. Make sure they are tidy even if they are used for storage areas. Declutter to make the garage look larger. It is amazing what a coat of concrete paint will do for your garage floor.
6. Do not paint anything in your home until you have talked to your agent. I see people painting and choosing colors that do not work in today's market. Let your Realtor guide you. A Realtor knows the hot buttons for today's buyer and what colors that are more inviting. The wrong shutter color could keep a buyer from walking in your front door.
7. Landscape. Look at your landscape and meet with a landscape designer. Mature landscape can age a home. Sometimes you need to remove all the front shrubbery in order to provide the curb appeal you need to welcome buyers. Bushes should not cover windows. If trees block the view of your home, they may need to come down.
8. Smells. If you have an animal then you need to know if your home smells. If you smoke then you need to stop smoking inside your home today. If you cook a lot and use heavy spices you should be aware of the odors in your home. If you do not address odors today, you may not have enough time when you are ready to list. This is a must do ! As we say in the business, "If you can smell it, you cannot sell it."
9. Furniture placement. Find out what furniture needs to go. Is your furniture big? Do you walk around furniture to go to another room? All of these things need to be addressed today. Ask your Realtor about the services of a home-staging professional.
10. Photos and wall hangings. Do not have clusters of photos and groupings of art. Eliminate personal photos. Eliminate school banners and eliminate political and religious articles. You want your home to be a home that the buyer can identify with. If their view is different, then they may not be able to see themselves in your home. Give them a space that allows them to place their family or lifestyle in it.

Joan Rivers attends charity diamond show
Joan Rivers made an appearance at a diamond jewellery event in Derbyshire last weekend.
According to Professional Jeweller, the American television personality was seen taking part in Find a Diamond, a game that challenges people to find a gemstone in a vat of rings.
The Chatsworth House CW Sellors' Christmas Wishes jewellery and watches display raised money for British charities including the NSPCC and the Air Ambulance.
Rivers was quoted as saying that the day was "fabulous".
Also in attendance was the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire, who was awarded a bejewelled bumble bee to honour her 90th birthday.
Another high-profile jewellery event next week will see rare pink diamond ring go under the hammer at a Sotheby's auction in a luxury Swiss hotel.
The item is estimated to be worth £17 million and is set to become the most valuable jewel ever to be bid upon.
It was first sold by famous American jeweller Harry Winston some 60 years ago.
