FORT WORTH -- Councilman Frank Moss' two challengers likely spotted him an early lead in his bid for re-election to Fort Worth's District 5 seat, as Moss launched phone banks to encourage the mail-in, early and Election Day vote several weeks ago.But challenger Gyna Bivens, 58, a nonprofit executive who lives in Ramey Place across from Dunbar High School, is hoping a $20,000 infusion of cash and the Fort Worth Police Officers Association's recent endorsement will help close any gap in the May 11 election in the district that snakes from Stop Six in southeast Fort Worth to CentrePort near Dallas/Fort Worth Airport and includes Handley, Eastchase, Mallard Cove and Trinity Boulevard east of Loop 820.Mallard Cove and much of the Trinity Boulevard area came into the district in a redraw of council maps last year."I knew we would be behind a good 600 votes from Day 1," said Bivens, adding she didn't run phone banks early in her campaign because she didn't have the money. "The Moss machine is very effective in early voting. Always has been."Moss, 68, who lives in Historic Rosedale Park, most recently won re-election in 2011 with 66.5 percent of the vote, and 1,051 of his 1,646 votes came in early voting. By contrast, of the 14,537 votes cash for Mayor Betsy Price in the general election, 7,725 came in the early vote.This year, Moss spent $680 in late March to hire four people to run phone banks, according to his first-quarter campaign finance report. Mail-in balloting opened March 12 in local races and ends Friday. Early in-person voting opens Monday."All of it works together," Moss, who has served on the council since 2007 in his most recent go-around and also served from 1998 to 2004, said in an interview. "It's a matter of getting the calls out."The race features a third challenger, Handley real estate broker John Tunmire, 58, who said he's hoping Moss and Bivens fight it out between them in Stop Six. Tunmire said he wasn't expecting Moss, who suffered a heart attack in late 2011, to run again."I wouldn't have run against him," said Tunmire, who said he's running because he believes the city has "forgotten about District 5."Moss' recordMoss touts accomplishments including the city teaming up with the Fort Worth Housing Authority on a $400,000 study to redevelop the aging Cavile Place public housing development in Stop Six; rezoning and completion of a master plan that cleared the way for the Enchanted Bay subdivision and development of acreage around the Fort Worth side of Lake Arlington; creation of a public increment financing district to provide more security around the Sun Valley Industrial Park; and improvements to the Meadowbrook library branch.Major development is also underway in the area of Trinity Boulevard and Precinct Line Road, which was partially in Moss' district before redistricting put it all in District 5.Moving ahead, Moss said he wants to promote safe, clean and healthy neighborhoods, more engaged neighborhood associations, and better housing and economic development prospects.The 2014 bond election has been a topic of discussion in the race. Improvements to Randol Mill Road from Loop 820 east and work on some Eastchase Parkway intersections are competing, Moss said.He has also been lobbying for money to expand and improve the Eugene McCray Community Center. "The [adult] citizens have to compete with the young people," he said.Moss says he's fine after recovering from his October 2011 heart attack. "My doctors have cleared me," he said.Bivens battles blightBivens, executive director of North Texas LEAD, a nonprofit organization that connects job seekers to employers that are members, says she's running to "let there be tangible signs of re-invigoration" in the district.There's too much blight and not enough signs of redevelopment, she said."When you look at the blight and the inner city of District 5, to me, that communicates to children this is the way it is," she said. On boarded-up buildings she sees, "if they can be brought up to code, they should be. If they need to be torn down, they should be."She said there has been no progress on the city's Berry/Stalcup Urban Village, at Berry Street and Stalcup Road near Stop Six.Blight in areas such as Historic Stop Six: Sunrise is a "real problem," Moss acknowledged. But the neighborhood has a historic overlay, and it's a "slow process" to get clearance to demolish buildings, he said.Business interest has rebounded in the urban village area since the downturn, with a thrift store interested, Moss said. But "we say we want something better than that," he said.Residential development on the west side of Lake Arlington got off to fits and starts. The development initially wasn't gated, causing problems, Moss said. A builder went bankrupt after putting up 38 homes. And many buyers put contracts down thinking they were moving into the Arlington school district, and then bolted when they learned they were in Fort Worth, Moss said.The community is now gated, and the city worked with the Fort Worth schools to let Enchanted Bay children transfer to a better-performing elementary school, Moss said.Bivens said she wants to encourage all neighborhood associations in the district to develop plans.Bivens also wants to launch a pilot program with two or three churches that would set themselves up as contact points for the many seniors in the district who don't have any relatives living close by.Scott Nishimura, 817-390-7808Twitter: @JScottNishimura

Originally written on Fox Sports Midwest | Last updated 10/29/14
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Baseballs top executives met one final time before departing the winter meetings Thursday morning for the annual Rule 5 Draft. And the Cardinals were busy at the Minor League level. The Cardinals did not select a player in the Major League portion of the Rule 5 Draft and had none of their players taken among the 15 overall selections. They did lose Steven Hill, a catcher and first baseman who appeared in nine games with the Cardinals this season, in the Triple-A portion of the draft to Oakland. Hill was removed from the Cardinals 40-man roster after the season. In the minor league portion, the Cardinals selected third baseman Matt Certa off the Cubs Double-A roster and left-handed pitcher Jay Voss from the Tigers Double-A team. Certa was a fourth round pick by the Cubs in the 2008 draft. The 22-year-old is a left-handed hitter and has a career .263 average and .371 on-base percentage in five minor league seasons. He was the top player on the Cardinals list for the Triple-A phase. Hes a good on-base percentage guy, hits for average, solid defensively, said Cardinals farm director John Vuch. Hes not a big power guy so hes not the prototypical third baseman in that regard but hes good offensively and will be in the mix at Double-A, Triple-A, competing for a spot there. Voss, a native of nearby Breese, Illinois, is recovering from Tommy John surgery last May. The left-handed pitcher has a 4.69 ERA in six minor league seasons in Florida and Detroits farm system. The Cardinals followed his rehab by reading a blog posted on the internet by one of his trainers or rehab coaches. Hes a guy that really, going through our reports, not that hes a top-top elite prospect, but I think he was on some of Detroits top 20 lists, Vuch said. Hes a guy that probably they may have been banking that the health concerns would scare teams off, but were excited to have him. Hes not going to be a guy thats an elite prospect for us but both these guys have a little bit of upside that they could maybe have a future. The Rule 5 Draft was designed to keep teams from stocking Major League ready talent in their Minor League systems. Players not on a teams 40-man roster who have been in the minor leagues for either four years or five years depending on age are eligible to be selected. If a team selects a player, he must be kept on that clubs 25-man big league roster for the entire season following the draft. Teams can place the player on waivers at any time and if he clears, must be offered back to his original team at half of the original 50,000 purchase price. The Cardinals selected outfielder Erik Komatsu in last years 2011 Rule 5 Draft but he was designated for assignment in May and later claimed by the Seattle Mariners. Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak and his front office group departed the Gaylord Opryland Hotel shortly after the Rule 5 Draft to begin the five-hour drive back to St. Louis. The Cardinals are still interested in finding a veteran bat for the bench and adding middle infield depth. They signed lefty reliever Randy Choate to a three-year deal on Wednesday.

Don't wait for it," I said. "Create a world, your world. Alone. Stand alone. Create. And then the love will come to you, then it comes to you. It was only when I wrote my first book that the world I wanted to live opened up to me.
- Anais Nin (March 1933) This is an amazing women, a strong author and story-teller. Like me, she has kept journals her whole life and hers were published, now famous pieces of literature. Anais' first volume published began in the 1930s. I love her because of how honest she is in her writing. She goes into detail with experiences she has with friends and what she sees in an artist's world. At a time she even wrote pieces of erotica and would sell them for ten cents a piece. If she was a woman living in the 30s and did all this, then why not me? This beautiful quote helps me dispell the fear I have to create my work. It's clear once I get in this space, what I've been searching for will arrive. These words give me courage xo

Celebrities were out in force at a string of events in the West End. Actress Hayley Atwell was at Bafta's HQ in Piccadilly for a screening of her new spy thriller Restless.
She was joined by Rufus Sewell, who also stars in the film adaptation of the book by William Boyd, currently penning the next James Bond novel.
Atwell, 30, looked stunning in a black coat — but insists she does not want to be known for her looks. She said: "I can't imagine it if beauty was the only currency I used as an actress. It just doesn't interest me."

"Necessity knows no law."Most characters in fiction, like people in real life, have broad lists of priorities and restrictions that determine their behaviour. We care about what other people think of us, how we will be able to feed ourselves in the future, the well-being of friends and family, our worldly goods, etc. etc. Of course how much we care about any given restriction or priority varies from person to person, but in general, we don't have any one given goal for which we would throw everything else away. The Unfettered is not one of these people. This is the character who can commit themselves to a single goal completely, absolutely, and unflinchingly. In pursuit of a goal they have no limits, inhibitions, or fear. Nothing chains them or holds them back (thus the name). You cannot make them flinch or falter. They cannot be intimidated, blackmailed, coerced, or otherwise convinced to back off from achieving their goal. There is no sacrifice they are unwilling to make or principle they are unwilling to compromise. The traits that make a character Unfettered can be summarized as follows:

Outhouse Pirate Podcast 21 - James Jacobs Interview
- Written by ProzacMan AKA Brian Osserman on Tuesday, October 12 2010 and posted in Podcasts
The real hook of James Jacobs' book True Confessions of a Fanboy is that his non fanboy brother/coauthor gives his perspective on events too. Plus NY Comic Con News!
After bkthomson, SuperginraiX, sdsichero, and ProzacMan put James Jacobs' Fanboy knowledge to the test, we can honestly say that he is the real deal and was an excellent guest on the Outhouse Pirate Podcast. When I first read the title of his book True Confessions of a Fanboy, my first reaction was "I don't need to read it, I lived it!". Then I learned the real hook of his book is that his non fanboy brother co-authors the book with him. James' brother Johnny Jacobs gives his perspective on the events and collecting habits of his geeky brother's life too. That got me interested. Seeing the dual perspective from the fan boy/collector and from some one that just doesn't get our culture is some thing I haven't seen done before.
After the interview James Jacobs sticks around to talk with the Outhouse Pirate Panel about all the hot news out of NY Comic Con! Download the show at the links below!

When we first got here 8 years ago, our first home was a 12' by 12' room with a small bathroom attached to the back. It was very small and warm, but it did the job - we were forced to get out and make acquaintances and learn the language. With each passing move, and with each additional child, the homes have become larger.
Our new home has 4 rooms. A bedroom for us, for the kids, and for the baby. We also have a beautiful kitchen complete with cabinets (what a novelty!). In the small backyard the previous renter (also a Westerner) built a two story play area with a slide and three swings! We can look out the kitchen window and see them happily running around. We've also been blessed with a small office off the back of our bedroom. When the door is shut you cannot hear the kids playing - of course, they can still come in the room, but it's a good start. :)
We are looking forward to this next season of life overseas because of the wonderful provision of this home.

With almost a month and a half of the NFL's equivalent of the deadzone, lets take a moment to decompress. Lets have some mindless fun!
It's all so serious at Valley Ranch and in CowboysNation. At the OTA's and mini camp, players talked tough about everything from critics and falling short to leadership and singular focus. Fans can't agree on who's over rated and even though we all feel a draft, we can't agree on where the window is and if its open.
Meanwhile, as I sit here in Southern California waiting impatiently for the Dallas Cowboys to arrive for their training camp in Oxnard, I can't help but feel a little bit like the paparazzi waiting for a peek at 'Brangelina'. This got me thinking.
The Dallas Cowboys are sometimes treated like the movie-stars of the NFL (OK, reality stars). So let me take one very bored step farther and ask the question no one is asking: If the Dallas Cowboys were a movie-star, what movie-star would they be?
If you think this is silly, you're right. But can you also agree that once training camp starts, everything is going to ramp up and take on a life of its own to the point where we might long for this down time. No? Whatever…I'll go first.
The movie-star I'm picking is not necessarily the one I would want to represent the 'Boys, just the one that best represents them as they are. There is a little bit of a circus that surrounds the Cowboys mainly due to Jerry Jones. So an element of clown would be necessary. The Cowboys are also very popular so it would have to be someone who is a clown and hugely popular. This narrows me to 3 stars. Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler and Jim Carrey.
Since the Dallas cowboys haven't had much success lately, Will Ferrell and Adam Sandler are out. That leaves Jim Carrey, a hugely popular movie star that's a bit of a clown, has been serious a few times but hasn't had a hit in a while. Regardless, he is one of my favorite actors (and the best serious actor of the group I mentioned)
So Jim Carrey is who the Cowboys would be if they were a movie-star. I'd rather it be Mark Walberg, but that just doesn't fit this team right now. Wouldn't that be cool though? After every game the Cowboys win, they tell the other team – "say hello ta ya mutha faw me". Instead they are more likely to say – "Alrighty Then!"
What movie-star do you think the Dallas Cowboys are? Think about it and let me know. We can always go back to serious next week.

Psychology Review - 01 August 2014 (14 mins)
Psychology Review - 02 June 2014 (35 mins) Featuring our view on why One Direction are going in the wrong direction, the worrying rise in the number of teens self-harming and why we support Geraldo.
On the programme today: People are likely to be greedy not generous, kind children tend to be more popular, how to stick to your New Year resolutions, boredom at work can make us more creative and the advantages of imaginary friends.
A quick review of some of the publications from 2013. Including why social networking means happy staff, what happens when women workers ask for higher pay and why it's possible for kids to change their eating habits. Our final broadcast of 2013! Thanks for listening everyone! See you next year!!
Does conscious awareness affect the influence of emotional provocation on unrelated stimuli?
Research has shown a memory advantage for emotional information, but it is unclear whether emotional arousal affects memory for neutral events that precede or follow it.
Research has shown that men respond differently to women during different parts of their ovulatory cycles.
Thinking about time as a cycle of recurring experiences — a reality Bill Murray's character knows all too well in the movie Groundhog Day — may help us to put more money away into our savings, according to new research. The findings are published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science.
Women across the country could be unwittingly holding themselves back in their careers because they are suffering from imposter syndrome, Rosalind Adler and Lea Sellers from Media Skills for Women have warned in an article for the Daily Telegraph.

sol yields from biogenic VOCs may also depend on the preexisting supply of anthropogenic aerosols, further complicating the feedback loops.
Atmospheric chemistry plays a critical role in aerosol formation and contributes to other climate-chemistry feedbacks driven by changes in land cover. Deposition of reactive nitrogen (nitrate, ammonium) may significantly affect carbon uptake by ecosystems, and climate change in turn will affect the terrestrial emission and atmospheric chemistry of nitrogen oxides and ammonia. Biogenic changes in nitrogen oxide and VOC emissions will affect the concentration of the hydroxyl radical (OH), the main sink for methane, and will also affect ozone. Like the land-cover impacts and feedbacks that are involved in the carbon cycle, understanding of these effects requires coupling of sophisticated, dynamic ecosystem and land-surface models.
The advance of coupled land-surface, vegetation, boundary-layer, and aerosol chemistry models promises to be an exciting frontier that may transform aspects of climate modeling, and climate model utility in, for example, air quality and land-use simulations. It may pave the way for unification of current efforts in air pollution modeling and in human-climate interactions, discussed further below. In the context of decadal to centennial climate change, these short-term processes influence climate system sensitivity through cumulative effects on radiative transfer and cloud properties. Aerosol chemistry, through direct and indirect effects on atmospheric absorption and scattering, are one of the greatest sources of intermodel climate variability.
How Will Climate Change on Regional Scales? How Will This Affect the Water Cycle, Water Availability, and Food Security?
Climate change impacts and adaptation activities are most strongly manifest on regional scales, where ecological and human systems are adapted to a specific set of historical climate "normals." Agriculture, water resource management, transportation, energy systems, recreational activities, wildfire hazards, and biological systems are all vulnerable to shifts from these historical normals, creating a demand for climate models that can provide accurate and detailed regional information. This demand is a challenge for the current generation of models, particularly with respect to simulation of regional precipitation; climate models need improved skill on regional scales to address this need. Issues concerning rainfall and the hydrologic cycle are of foremost concern. Simulation of ecosystems, ice-ocean interactions, and severe weather, among other climate processes of interest, also require model skill at regional scales.
Accurate simulation of regional precipitation patterns and trends is difficult. Current models are generally limited in their ability to simulate regional precipitation pat-

Rihanna Performs on CBS' Grammy Nomination Specialby Free Britney at . Comments
Rihanna's "We Found Love" is burning up the charts, so it made sense that she performed during the announcement of the 2012 Grammy nominations on CBS.
Her performance was beamed in from a London's O2 arena, where she showed no signs of fatigue despite reports that she's burned out and may take a year off.
"#GRAMMYS2012 5 nominations!!!" Rihanna Tweeted excitedly. "This year keeps getting better and better!#LOUD up 4 Album of the year is so #MAJAH."
In addition to Album of the Year, the 25-year-old Barbadian beauty is nominated for Best Rap collaboration, Best Pop Vocal Album and Song of the Year.
Watch her performance on last night's broadcast below:
@Derick i agree with you boo, rihanna have did interviews when she talk about being tied up and beat while having sex. Also in the new video call we found love, did you see this girl had the wanna be chris brown look a like and the drugs? That was pure crazy! Now im starting to wonder why she want to take a break. I been saying this from the start, rihanna need help.
@johm and bianca: Im not hating rihanna or anybody. If you truly like rihanna, then u will care about her. Have u seen her in interviews??? Most of the time she is half drugged.It was wrong that Chris brown hit her few years back, but in many of her songs she sings about sadistic sex and in one interview she said that she likes sadism as it "turns her on". How can u think that i would judge some one cos she come s from Barbados. And yeh, beyonce, lady gaga and madonna really dress and behave trashy. Im also puzzled as to how they get away with it...well maybe if you have money, fame and talent, you can get away with any sin. Its true money is definitly the road to all evil.
First of all, im pretty sure aint nobody hating on Rihanna. Yes she is making some what of hits but to me, rihanna career boost up a little more just because of what happen between her and chris brown 3 damn yrs ago. Me and maybe other people think's that rihanna is not the best singer and hell yeah, she lip sing just about ever performance. The only thing that rihanna can offer is taking her clothes off and touching her kitty kat. People just felt sorry for her and they still do cause, rihanna have change with the hard core trying to be good girl gone bad crazy $hit. She have not been the same since the fight on that following night. Trust me, nobody did not ever knew who she really was. It is sad that you can tell that a person is going threw something and that person cant see their own problem and that's how i feel about rihanna. The girl need help and if her fan's think that $hit is cute what she doing, they might need to go visit a doctor.
When beyonce, Madonna, pink and lady gaga dress like and behave like whores in their videos and lip sync...its ok BUTTT ya'll on rihanna's case. Its only because a girl from the islands is kicking these american asses in the cahrts ya'll can't take it.
Rihana is amazing. Screw all you haters.
Rihanna behaves like a prostitute. God has given her a beautiful voice but her dressing and behaviour does not give justice to her God given talent.
I dont call moving your mouth to a song playing performing! She's such a fake..

The hosts were sent into bat at Blundstone Arena and put together a competitive 6-256 in their 50 overs, buoyed by half-centuries to Callum Ferguson (65) and Aaron Finch (57).
The tourists looked to be putting up a decent fight in earnest of a maiden win this tour when they were 2-94, but unlikely hero with the ball Finch (1-30) broke a 67-run stand between James Taylor (78 not out) and Gary Ballance (26).
The Lions collapsed dramatically, losing their final eight wickets for just 49 runs to slump to a 114-run loss - their third straight heavy defeat to Australia A after losses by 122 runs and seven wickets previously this trip, already sealing the five-match series for the home side.
Taylor's innings was the stand-alone highlight for the tourists, as the 23-year-old hit six fours and one six in his 82-ball knock.
Queensland paceman Alister McDermott was the best of the Australian bowlers, finishing with 3-32 off seven overs.
Spinner Cameron Boyce (2-27) and paceman Josh Hazlewood (2-23) were the other multiple wicket-takers, while Gurinder Sandhu and John Hastings also claimed scalps.
Earlier, South Australian batman Ferguson anchored Aus A's innings, making his 65 off just 64 balls but only hitting four boundaries in his time at the crease.
Left-arm orthodox spinner Simon Kerrigan (2-27 off 10) was impressive for the Lions, while Toby Roland-Jones, Stuart Meaker and Craig Overton picked up one wicket each.
Games four and five of the series will take place at the SCG on Monday and Friday respectively.
The Lions are yet to win on their trip down under so far, also losing two matches to Victoria and one to a Victorian XI side.

Step into a world of beautiful beaches, exciting nightlife and delicious cuisines in Barcelona and you won't regret your decision. One of the world's most fascinating tourist destinations, Barcelona offers something for everyone, kids and adults alike. Whether you want to spend some romantic time with your partner at the beautiful Barceloneta Beach or taste the delicious local cuisine on the Las Ramblas Street, the choice is yours. Sagrada Familia is the most popular attraction in Barcelona and certainly a must visit for everyone. The beautiful church is considered one of the best works of the master architect Antoni Gaudi and boasts of immaculate interiors. Talking about Barcelona and not mentioning the Montserrat Mountain Range would certainly be a sin. So get your hiking shoes on and enjoy outstanding views of the city from the top of this mountain range.
Booking your flight with CheapOair helps ensure that you'll be getting the cheapest available tickets to Barcelona. With our Best Price Guarantee, you know that we can provide you with the fantastic low prices on flights to Barcelona, and with our 24/7 customer service you can always reach us during your trip.
The best time to visit Barcelona is during the months of May-June and September-November. The weather is apt for a stroll on the beach and the festive fever is playing on everyone's minds. Prepare to shell out extra for your vacation during these months as the tourist rush is at its peak. If you are looking for an economical vacation, then travel in the month of August. Since most of the locals are off on summer holidays, the city misses the buzz that it is so famous for. Consequently the airfares are low and hotel bookings are easy to find in this month.
Barcelona-El Prat International Airport is considered the gateway to this beautiful city. The airport is well connected to the city by several ground transportation options like car rentals, private taxis and rail service. Girona Airport and Reus Airport are the other two airports that serve the city. Situated a little away from the city, these airports are generally served by low cost carriers and offer less options for ground transport. However if you are looking for the cheapest flights to Barcelona, then flying into these airports is not a bad bet at all.

Removing stranded user sessions in Dynamics GP via SQL Server
In today's post I want to share a SQL script that I considered very important, lately I worked in cases were I have been witness on how other partners/customers deal in SQL to remove stranded users.
A few do this task from inside GP, others run the following code:
Delete from Activity where userid = 'XXXX"
But lets analyze, they are not really removing a stranded user and all of the activity associated with the user, what they are really doing is just removing the record from the activity table so that Dynamics GP does not see the user, but what happens if they remove via SQL or GP the wrong user id? if the user is logged into 2 or more different companies at the same time?.
Messages like "The selected document is being edited by another user" sounds familiar?
Let me explain to you how this SQL script works and then I'll provide it to you remember with this script you don't need the users to log off from Dynamics GP.
SQL server maintains a record of active user sessions in the table SYSPROCESSES from the MASTER database, inside sysprocesses there is a column named "login name" and we base our script on sysprocesses to clear the ACTIVITY table from the DYNAMICS database.
Once ACTIVITY table has been cleaned out we are ready to clean 2 tables from the TEMP database first we clean DEX_SESSION and then DEX_LOCK in order to eliminate locks and processes in temp tables.
The next step is to clean batch activity (SY00800) and resource activity (SY00801) in order to have a valid session clean up.
Here is the code:
delete from DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY
where USERID not in (select loginame from master..sysprocesses)
delete from tempdb..DEX_SESSION
where session_id not in (select SQLSESID from DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY)
delete from tempdb..DEX_LOCK
where session_id not in (select SQLSESID from DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY)
delete from DYNAMICS..SY00800
where USERID not in (select USERID from DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY)
delete from DYNAMICS..SY00801
where USERID not in (select USERID from DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY)
Note: Make sure you have a backup of your databases when running scripts that can modify your data.
Also I am including the KB's published that show how to remove records from DEX_LOCK and DEX_SESSION that working together make the script I just provided.
A batch is held in the Posting, Receiving, Busy, Marked, Locked, or Edited status in Microsoft Dynamics GP (KB 850289)
How to remove all the inactive sessions from the DEX_LOCK table in the TempDB database when you use Microsoft Dynamics GP together with Microsoft SQL Server (KB 864411)
How to remove all the inactive sessions from the DEX_SESSION table in the TempDB database when you use Microsoft Dynamics GP together with Microsoft SQL Server (KB 864413)
7 Responses to "Removing stranded user sessions in Dynamics GP via SQL Server"
When a session goes idle does GP shut down the SPID or does GP shut down the SPID?
If GP is idle and then you shutdown the application, yes GP will clear the SPID from the Dynamics Activity table. But if the application is forced via task manager or logoff, then the SPID is not cleared, that is why this procedure fixes this scenarios.
In your script you are looking for users in the activity table that do not have a record in the sysproccess table. If I open a session do some work and then leave my desk without logging off at what point will I be removed from the sysproccess table? What timeout determins that?
Thank you for the script and your help by the way. Here is a related question.
Lets say somone is working on a batch and they walk away from their desk(without saving). Then after an hour taskmanager shuts down. Then I run your script. Is there any autosave of their work on the batch?
This works very well! Thanks for helping me get rid of a stranded session.

For both the first scoring matches and tournament action of the 2013-14 season, an incomplete Sonoma Valley High School wrestling team made the annual trek to Saturday's Golden Gate Classic at George Washington High School in San Francisco and turned in a spirited, upbeat effort.
Competing in the 27-school field, the Dragon wrestlers battled their way to a standout fifth-place Golden Gate Classic finish, led by four-year varsity starter senior Harris Meglen, who went undefeated in claiming the 120-pound first-place medal with a 3-0 record, with two wins coming by way of the pin.
Earning a second-place medal for Sonoma was sophomore Dalton Elster's 2-1 record with one pin in the heavyweight division; followed by four-year varsity starting senior Max Schimm's sixth-place 2-2 mark at 160 pounds; junior Jake Randuch's 2-2 sixth with one pin at at 138; sophomore Brandon Ruiz's 2-2 sixth at 170; freshman Noah Bartolome's 2-2 at 152; sophomore Austin Beltran's 0-2 at 170; sophomore David Price's 0-2 at 145; and frosh Victor Vazquez's 0-2 at 126.
The varsity Dragons will next compete in the Healdsburg Duals tomorrow, Saturday, Dec. 21 – the junior varsity Healdsburg Duals are today – and then will participate in the Coast Classic in Aptos on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 27 and 28.

The Lee University Department of Business is partnering with the Internal Revenue Service's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program to offer free tax preparation every Friday and Saturday in the Walker Memorial Building beginning Jan. 25.
IRS certified junior and senior accounting students will provide assistance at the Walker Memorial Building in Room 107 from 2:30-5:30 p.m. on Fridays and 9 a.m.-12 p.m. on Saturdays. The last day of filing tax returns through VITA at Lee is Saturday, April 13.
In its seventh year, the VITA program at Lee is a tax return preparation service for any taxpayer whose maximum gross annual income does not exceed $50,000.
"This free tax preparation service is to the advantage of many of our neighbors," said Greg Della Franco, assistant professor of accounting at Lee University and coordinator of the VITA program on campus.
Mr. Della Franco added that returns will be filed electronically to the Internal Revenue Service, and refunds will be generated more quickly the sooner they are filed and also, more quickly than paper returns.
"Naturally, a refund will come back more quickly if the return is sent on, say, Feb. 2, instead of waiting until April 2," said Mr. Della Franco.
For additional information, contact Mr. Della Franco at 614-8667 or e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Many times while growing up, I would go to the store with my parents. More often than not, I would see something I wanted, and ask my parents to buy it for me. More often than not, they said no.

This morning, we take a look at a guy that is turning heads at training camp so far. There wasn't much expected of him, but he has played so well that he is in the discussion as the third down back behind Shonn Greene. He has truly surprised many that have watched him. Spotlight on RB Bilal Powell.
He's a young guy, only 23 years old. He was born in Lakeland, Florida.
Bilal had a good career at the University of Louisville, averaging 5.4 yards per carry, and recorded 19 TDs. His breakout year, though, was his senior season, when he earned first team All-Big East honors, and a trip to the Senior Bowl.
That season, Powell ran the ball 229 times for 1,405 yards and 11 TDs, averaging 6.1 yards per carry. He racked up his season high against the University of Cincinatti, rushing for 209 yards and 2 TDs.
The Jets chose Bilal with their fourth round pick in the 2011 NFL draft.

Illustrations by a Writer No One Reads. See last year's Paul Scheerbart profile by Matthew Jakubowski.
Paul Scheerbart profile by Matthew Jakubowski
A guest post by Matthew Jakubowski. His short stories are available online at 3:AM Magazine and Necessary Fiction. His book reviews appear most often in The National.
No one reads German polymath Paul Scheerbart (1863-1915). Yet during his prolific career his eccentric fiction, art, and poetry influenced a range of intellects, from architect Bruno Taut to writer Walter Benjamin. It's a testament to Scheerbart's prophetic vision that his fiction has attracted such lasting attention: he wrote mostly outer-space novels and utopian stories about things like glass architecture.
Beyond the quirky concepts, however, Scheerbart's work has a revolutionary, philosophical zeal and the image of him that arises is that of a steampunk Ralph Waldo Emerson with imaginative powers equal to those of Thomas Edison and Jules Verne.
Some major university presses have published a handful of Scheerbart's work in English. MIT Press brought out his glass architecture novella, The Gray Cloth and Ten Percent White: A Ladies' Novel, and University of Chicago Press published The Light Club (the full title is The Light Club of Batavia: A Ladies' Novelette), about an underground utopia created by a group of wealthy humanists. These are enjoyable books, optimistic, ironic, and, as the titles indicate, pro-feminist for their time.
The most recent Scheerbart in translation is Lesabendio: An Asteroid Novel, and kudos to Wakefield Press (in Cambridge) for creating a wonderful illustrated edition of Scheerbart's short novel about brainy humanoid worm-aliens, dreamers who float around and consider their place in the cosmos. Using the basic tropes of sci-fi, Scheerbart creates a sharp social satire of European salon culture, industrial ambition, and the groupthink of his day, including offhand musings like this about quantum mechanics and string theory that are startlingly accurate:
Lesabendio fell asleep. He dreamed of an enormous solar system—and it appeared to him like a system of millions of rubber bands that were continuously being stretched apart and then rebounding back together again.
My favorite Scheerbart in English so far is The Perpetual Motion Machine (Wakefield Press). The central question seems to be—is success or failure better for the imagination? Translator Andrew Joron did great work capturing Scheerbart's wonderful range of raw emotion as he struggles to tell "The Story of an Invention," as the book is subtitled. The diary of intense frustration hits innumerable highs and lows as Scheerbart tries, fails, and fails again to invent a real perpetual-motion machine (he and his wife needed the money). "I'm getting nowhere with my prototype," he says. "This has not in the least hindered the outpouring of my imagination."
(The book also shows off Scheerbart's impressive skills as a draughtsman: it includes 26 schematic diagrams of prototypes for a real perpetual motion machine, which will prove humorous for anyone familiar with, say, gravity, or the concept of friction.)
Eventually, Scheerbart uses failure as a route to revelation, and revelation as an engine for belief in infinite creativity. The diary gives way to several short stories, including "The Astral Direction," in which Scheerbart mentions "the significance of the Earthstar." His failures have yielded a vision that "The Earth itself is a perpetual motion machine" and if his "perpet" (his nickname for a perpetual motion machine) could actually harness gravity's power it would cause a "sublime revolution," bringing about the "obsolescence of labor," freeing humanity from "nation-states" and "militarism." He imagines great changes ahead. "We are standing, then, before a cultural earthquake. A great many old arrangements will be undone."
He was right, but unfortunately wrong about the nature of the impending earthquake—World War I would soon break out. The mass death would reveal how earnest Scheerbart was about his dreams for utopia and peace: Joron states in his introduction to The Perpetual Motion Machine that Scheerbart is said to have killed himself in a hunger strike protesting the war.

The Nike SB P-Rod series is moving to LunarLon for its new cushioning but the above pictured model chose to switch to a vulcanized sole for lifestyle advantages. Sporting a classic, low profile look, the Nike SB P-Rod 2.5 will continue to see new colorways releasing for Fall 2011. Our first preview of the Q3 '11 P-Rod 2.5s includes this navy suede design with USAB leanings thanks to deep red and gold accents.

Help Healthcare Consumers Find the Right Doctor for Them
As consumers of many products and services, we want to know our options to make informed decisions. We compare big-ticket purchases like cars and houses as well as every-day items like laundry detergent and food to make sure we get the value we want.
So why wouldn't we compare doctors also?
Advocate Medical Group (AMG) wanted to give consumers the opportunity to take an active role when choosing a physician. So we helped them add functionality to their website allowing health consumers to compare physicians. When looking at a physician's profile, consumers are able to answer:
- Is this physician accepting new patients?
- How many years of experience does the physician have?
- Where does that physician practice?
- Does this physician speak my native language?
- Is the physician board certified?
- What is the physician's philosophy of care?
With the ability to look at doctors in parallel, consumers can choose the doctor that best meets the needs of their family. Most importantly, they are able to request an appointment and easily complete the task they set out to do.

Making the Move to a Responsive, Mobile-Friendly Healthcare Website
With the number of mobile-connected devices projected to exceed the world's population by the end of 2014, it's more important than ever to have a Web presence that can accommodate mobile users. And since 31% of cell phone owners, and 52% of smartphone owners, have used their phone to look up health or medical information, healthcare organizations need to make their online experience seamless regardless of what type of mobile device is trying to access their information.
Pella Regional Health Center wanted to ensure visitors had access to their entire site, not just a select subset. Enter responsive design. It enables organizations to build and maintain one site that adapts automatically to the capabilities of the device being used. Essentially future-proofing an organization's website since it presents the best user experience possible whether the Web visitor is accessing the single site from a desktop, tablet, mobile device or even a mobile-enabled refrigerator.
Rating Healthcare Rating Systems
We know patients want to choose providers that deliver the highest quality of care. They tell us so in survey after survey, after all. The trouble is – how do healthcare providers tell them they're good or, at the very least, better than local competition?
The business of communicating quality is a tough one. There is no one clear definition of what constitutes quality healthcare. I think this surprises many people not involved in the field, but those of us who spend our time here realize the complexities of our discipline.
Every specialty has its own elements of quality. But even within a specialty, there are many different ways organizations measure what quality means to them. The number of cases performed can be important, the training the care team has completed may be a factor, adherence to best of breed practices and protocols may be the key as can be the high tech tools available at the facility.
Add to this that no two patients are alike – arriving with different levels of progression with a disease, differing basic levels of overall health and a range of comorbities, all of which adds layers to the quality picture. With all of this complexity, you begin to see the difficulty in delivering solid quantitative measures of the relative quality of, for example, cardiology programs.
The quality data that's reported to government agencies is little help here. Truly, most patients would be shocked that one of the key metrics for the quality of a cardiology program is how long it takes for a patient with symptoms of a cardiac event to receive an aspirin!
The Value of Content? PRICELESS!
Those MasterCard® commercials have it right. Everything costs something, but some things are worth more than what they cost. They're valuable. And that's how we need to think about website content.
When considering a purchase, we often think only about the amount of money we spend. We know the numbers, the price, the cost. We can feel the bills or coins leaving our hands—or we see the balance in our bank account drop. We buy stuff all the time:
- Morning cup of coffee = $
- Cool new kicks or hoodie = $$
- Washer and dryer = $$$
- Family trip to Disney World = $$$$
But what's the value of these purchases? That's not something you can measure in money. It's priceless.
- Coffee = Delivers the eye-opener that jump-starts your day
- Cool kicks = Identifies you as a trend-setter or stellar group member
- Laundry pair = Offers the comfort of knowing you can have clean clothes when you need them
- Disney World vacation = Provides a fun setting for family bonding time
Value comes from the intangibles—like feelings—related to the products and services we buy. Feelings like attention, fun, trust, relationship, comfort, caring. Yes, you spend money for these products and services, but what you get back makes the cost worthwhile.
Hospital Website Guidance: Opening Links in New Windows
For some time now, standard Web guidance has been to open hyperlinks in the current window instead of opening them in new windows. For those not familiar with what I'm describing, the following provides an example of each:
- This hyperlink opens the destination page in the current window. This is the recommended approach.
- This hyperlink opens the destination page in a new window. This is NOT the recommended approach.
There are multiple reasons that inform the recommended approach. If you're not familiar with them, here are a few of the more important ones:

Remarketing: Somebody's Watching Me!
I've had a lot of questions lately about remarketing (sometimes known as retargeting), a marketing technique that targets your site visitors with ads for your organization AFTER they've left your website. For example, I shopped for lamps last year on Overstock.com and then, for weeks afterwards, it seems like every site I visited presented me with ads for Overstock.com, many with the specific lamps I'd viewed!
You've probably experienced this yourself and realized that these ads are no coincidence but rather an aggressive marketing tactic by which one site follows you around the Internet with ads after a single visit.
I don't like remarketing (so much so that I sometimes find myself writing snarky poetry about it like this). I find it to be annoying, intrusive and clumsily heavy handed. While remarketing is less intrusive when shopping for lamps – for something truly important and personal, like my health, it would be more than annoying. It would be downright creepy!
As a consumer, I don't like remarketing and have steered clients away from the practice. But, as my friend Linda's coffee cup reminds me on many a Monday morning, "Your opinion, although interesting, is irrelevant." A quick Google search shows that many healthcare organizations are using remarketing today. As a technique, remarketing works for many advertisers or it wouldn't be gaining in popularity.

Super Bowl Ads Admit: "You Don't Really Care About Our Product Right Now"
Unless you are a Seahawks fan, you probably agree that the Super Bowl this year was a bit of a snoozer. For those of us watching the ads more than the game, however, it's always an exciting evening!
My takeaway from this year's crop of ads was a little different. A surprising number of brands seemed to be recognizing that their products just simply aren't interesting to consumers at that moment in time.
At one level, this is obvious. Unless you're selling beer, soda or salty snacks, the audience for the game just doesn't care. You're not relevant to where they are mentally at that moment in time. They are there to watch the game and hang out with friends, not to shop for a new car or change banks.
On the other hand, this speaks to the core value proposition of interruption advertising – if you get the eyeballs of the right people pointed at the screen, your message is valuable.
But what if this just isn't true? What if the context where the advertisement is shown really does matter?
Healthcare Marketing Takeaways from Google's "Winning the Zero Moment of Truth"
Retail powerhouse Proctor and Gamble figured out a bit of marketing magic. They uncovered the moment that mattered the most to their consumers: when they stood in front of the store shelf and decided what to buy. Proctor and Gamble termed this the First Moment of Truth (FMOT) and they spent a lot of time, energy (and money!) focused on in-store displays.
Google decided to study this process. They wanted to see where influence took place and at what point shoppers moved from undecided to decided. Google uncovered that there is a step before the FMOT – and they named it the Zero Moment of Truth (ZMOT).
ZMOT describes the time when consumers go online and research the product, read reviews and watch product videos – actions that, according to Google, more than 88% of U.S. consumers perform.
It's easy to picture consumers in their ZMOT – researching which big screen to buy for the big game or which resort to stay at on vacation. Today ZMOT is a powerful force in decision making. Heck, you'd likely feel uncomfortable making a big decision without doing some online research first.
Clients Still Satisfied? Check.
We have a pretty lofty goal for response rate. We need 70% participation, every survey. And you know what? We've consistently exceed that goal for more than two years. This time around, 73% of our clients participated in the survey and 92% of those respondents gave us a 5.0 or higher overall score!
How Can Hospitals Ensure Online Consumers Find Accurate Provider Profiles?
47% of the people who looked up a physician online felt differently about that doctor after viewing their profile, according to HealthWorks Collective. Having accurate and robust physician profiles has never been more important. Consumers want to know everything they can about providers who may be taking care of them. Given that, it is crucial that hospitals are ensuring providers' profiles are accurate. If hospitals do not take a proactive approach to managing profiles, many online sites will "create" them on the fly and the information is typically incorrect.
5 Social Media Trends that Will Change How Healthcare Marketers Approach Strategy in 2014
Ninety-three percent of marketers will be maintaining or increasing how much they are spending on social media advertising in 2014, according to a new report from eMarketer. But where should healthcare marketers be focusing their attentions to get the most bang for their buck, not to mention their valuable time?
Social media strategy in 2014 will shift focus away from increasing the number of likes/followers your brand has to engaging your target audience through organic interactions. Marketers will need to adapt quickly across many social media channels in order to incorporate micro-video, image-centric content and native advertising into the mix. And finally, if you haven't built out your brand's Google+ profile yet you are already behind.
Time to Spice Up the Ol' Provider Directory?
Keeping physicians happy, adhering to brand standards, and making a site user-friendly can sometimes be a balancing act. But Avera Health has accomplished all three items with its updated provider directory.
Geonetric worked with Avera Health take VitalSite's already advanced provider profiles a step further. We gave the physician profiles a facelift adding in more interactive features such as videos and a dynamic blog feed that pulls in blog posts written by that specific doctor. The location information (including secondary locations) are clearly displayed to make it easy for visitors to find a provider in a certain area.
We also simplified the physician search results by changing the layout and indicating physicians that have a video. A print button was also added that allows users to print their search results.
Making a few changes can have a big effect! Feedback has been very positive, a win-win for users and providers!
Are you ready to dust off your provider directory and spice it up? Not sure where to start? Let us know – we'd love to help!
Fresh Perspectives: Build a Rewarding Long-Term Patient Experience
As healthcare marketers we enjoy being in control. So coming to grips with the fact that sometimes we're not in control can feel quite uncomfortable. This growing reality was difficult to swallow a few years ago and even more so today. We need to embrace the fact we can't control every single piece of the consumer experience. Sounds radical doesn't it? Not being in control goes against the very nature of who we are as human beings and how we strive to become even more valuable as marketers to our communities.
Does giving up control mean losing control of your story or message? I submit to you, if done correctly, it does not.

Morning Glories Vol. 1 by Nick Spencer, published by Image's Shadowline.
Okay, I know my reviews of things are usually pretty wordy, but I'mma keep this one short.
Orwellian school breeding super-genius teenagers + great character development + some seriously mind-fuck-y elements + great dialogue + really quality art (although I don't really like the covers) = *Easily* my favorite new series. Morning Glories is definitely one to watch, I can tell you that much. It's seriously good.
