Blue jeans, Georgia work boots, and a camo t shirt. Camo cap.
Beutiful rifles don't mean much ether. Buy a solid old real rifle and a basic knife and if you need camo get some mil spec camo and hit the woods. Jeans a flannel also works. Its more about a learn skill level than camo so NO tactici-cool junk. Someone other newbe may shoot you for a bear. Do read yur stses hanting laws on if and howw much blaze orange you need on for firearm hunting. Don't expect big returns for a couple years unless you get lucky ether.

Grey Poupon? Why, yes....
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
I could make a list of a bunch of guns i have, or "have", or wish I had. Why would one feel compelled to provide that infornation freely? Do you feel the need to show off? Is it some immature game of oneupsmanship?
Why do you feel it necessary to list your guns?
While it MAY(not proven) be true that some animals are colorblind, they can still see shapes, and light and/or dark shades. The original purpose of camo is to break up the shape of something or somebody so that it does not look out of place in the natural surroundings. I personally wear BDUs or old fatigues when sitting in my treestand, but any type of drab colors. A blaze orange vest or hat my also be required. Here in AL on the state game management areas, one or the other is required during 'gun' deer season but not during archery season or while small game hunting. On private lands it's required regardless. There again, I wear a blaze orange cap.

Manchester police arrest man in bar, charge him with robbing bank
MANCHESTER - A man wanted for robbing Citizens Bank was arrested Thursday as he sat at the bar inside the Ukranian Club.
Police said a tipster to Manchester Crimeline identified Thomas Webster, 52, as the man who robbed the bank branch at 875 Elm St. in the early afternoon on Wednesday. The tipster made the call after seeing photos of the robber on a WMUR broadcast, police said.
Webster, who gave an address of 84 Ash St. and said he was "self-employed," was arrested without incident at the 148 Manchester St. club.
The bank was robbed just after noon on Wednesday by a man who told a teller he had a weapon, although none was shown, and threatened to hurt both her and bank customers. The teller handed him an undisclosed amount of cash and he fled the bank with it.
Webster is to be arraigned Friday in 9th Circuit Court, Manchester District Division, on a felony charge of robbery.

LONDON — David Beckham's teenage son just might be the next person in his family to play in the Premier League. Thirteen-year-old Brooklyn Beckham, the oldest of Beckham's four children, is having a tryout with London club Chelsea and played in an under-14 game Tuesday at the team's training facility, people familiar with the situation told The Associated Press. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the teenager's activities. The Daily Mail newspaper's website first reported the news Wednesday. Pictures were posted on Twitter of David Beckham watching Brooklyn play Tuesday. Top pro teams routinely sign talented young players to their youth academies. The elder Beckham, a former England captain and Manchester United star, is mulling offers from clubs around the world after leaving the Los Angeles Galaxy at the end of a six-year stint in Major League Soccer. When Beckham played in the U.S., Brooklyn was on the Galaxy's youth team. He still appears on the Galaxy website as a member of their under-14 squad, but the family left Los Angeles last month and returned to England.
PLAYERS: David Beckham

Rear view shows what we can expect in future.
Intelligent people across the country are asking out loud whether another presidential term for Barack Obama actually will be as bad as we expect it to be.
Unfortunately, it probably will be.
Because he was as horrible, as disdainful of the Constitution and of decency, fair play and good judgment, as he was in the first four years, imagine what he can do now that he needs not worry about re-election. A look back serves as a reminder of how bad he has been already, so that good Americans can start figuring how to counter the worse Obama still to come. Herewith, then, lines from either opening or closing paragraphs of my prior columns on the Occupier in Chief, to remind us, as if we needed it, what we're dealing with.
Sept. 18, 2008: "Rhetoric aside, Obama is about as much in step with the majority of Americans as Britney Spears would be if she were trying to foxtrot with Fred Astaire.… Strip away Obama's deep-timbred voice and his puffball platitudes, and what remains is nothing more than an academic radical using Chicago machine politics to grab a power base and using smoke-and-mirrors to project a pleasing image."
Nov. 6, 2008: "It will take very focused, very intelligent, very skillful action by conservatives to stop this creeping subversion of a free society. This is a whole different political battlefield than any on which we've fought before. And we haven't yet found our Omar Bradley."
March 13, 2009: "If this be treason, make the most of it. No, not treason against this wonderful nation. But this column may sound suspiciously like treason against the cult of Obama, and against his hagiographers in the establishment media, and against the very idea that this president actually loves this nation's liberal, republican, constitutional order. Consider this also to be treason against the myth that our president is a man of deep, or even average, integrity.
"Barack Obama is a radical's radical and a man whose ego vastly outstrips his prior accomplishments. He is dangerous, and after just seven weeks he already is leading this country into disaster."
April 16, 2009: "Let's cut through all of Barack Obama's baloney. His speech on the economy at Georgetown University on Tuesday was a testament to the massive ego of a callow leader with grandiose pretensions bordering on megalomania. Everything he outlined in his vision for a near-Utopian economic future is designed to come about through the intervention of a government central planner — his own Oneself — combined with the coercive force of government to make it happen."
May 15, 2009: "If somebody were deliberately trying to undermine the very fabric of these United States, he would first vow not just to change its policies but to completely 'change America,' and then would do just about everything Barack Obama already has begun to do as president."
Oct. 23, 2009: "We will not be intimidated, we will not be bullied, we will not be silenced, and we will not lose. Barack Obama's thugocracy is dishonest, dangerous, and malicious, but it cannot be stronger than the aroused might of a free people."
March 5, 2010: "There is something way off balance in the character of Barack Obama. Something in the realm of zealotry, with a touch of megalomania, and perhaps an authoritarian impulse too. He combines Alinskyite tactics and outlook with an air of self-assumed moral superiority in a way that fails to respect the usual, small 'r' republican limits on American presidents."
May 13, 2010: "Who the hell does Barack Obama, this morally preening, arrogant hypocrite, think he is? His vacuous, demagogic shtick about helping the 'people' fight 'the powerful' is getting so old from his lips, and already was so hackneyed even before he expropriated it, that it's a miracle that even he himself can say it anymore without getting nauseated by his own oleaginous triteness. Obama spewed the same old effluvia Monday when introducing Elena Kagan as his nominee for the Supreme Court…."
Aug. 22, 2011: "This boringly ineffective would-be demagogue in the Oval Office keeps trotting out the same tired, petty, counterfactual lines in every one of his pompous, detached-from-reality speeches — and he did so again in his Saturday radio address. So shopworn is his refrain, and so counterproductive are his policies (both enacted and proposed), that the markets tank just about every time he opens his mouth, and the economy suffers with each minute he continues to occupy the White House. His resignation from office, in abject embarrassment at his failures, would be a great first step toward economic recovery, not to mention a balm to the souls of tens of millions of Americans sick of his condescension, his prevarications, and his incompetence."
Oct. 21, 2011: "Civil unrest is President Barack Obama's crutch, his comfort zone, and his trump card. That's why he has encouraged the 'Occupy Wall Street' protest and its progeny across the country, despite significant political dangers to him for doing so. Closer looks at Obama's career roots and at the protesters' behaviors help explain both why the protests are worrisome developments and why the president actually likes them."
Feb. 3, 2012: "By ineptness and, worse, by deliberate design, Barack Obama daily makes this nation weaker abroad, less free (and more authoritarian) at home, economically more feeble, and in the civic realm more bitterly divided than ever. Meanwhile, ominous developments crowd the world stage. In short, we're in a big heap of trouble. The recent litany of Obama's odiousness begins with his growing, unambiguous war against traditional Christianity…."
Sept. 6, 2012: "The Anointed One, the Occupier of the Oval Office, who will accept his party's renomination for president tonight in Charlotte, has created chapter and verse of the political version of an Old Testament — a mythology explaining how the United States fell into economic difficulties and why his attempts to extricate us from distress so far have been unavailing. The problem is that, like most mythologies but very much unlike the real Old Testament, the Anointed One's explanations are entirely wrongheaded, and sometimes outright dishonest."
Sept. 19, 2012: "This presidency is a disaster. Reasonable people are gobsmacked at the possibility that it could somehow be allowed to continue its degradations of American society."

The (unfortunately under-rated) Dylan Ratigan is hosting Kudlow & Company tonite, and one of his guests was Ben Stein.
I've been on several shows with Stein, and he's a nice guy, but . . .
One of the other guests suggested that earnings were decellerating, which Stein vociferously disagreed with. That is, to be blunt, ignorant.
Since peaking in Q3 2003, year over year S&P500 earnings gains have been decelerating. From nearly 30% Y-over-Y, straight down for the next 6 quarters to just under 10%. The past two quarters have seen minor improvements — thanks to energy — to push Y-over-Y earnings back over 10%. But back out Energy and the decelerating trend remains intact.
Further, there is an argument to be made that earnings are meaningless — or at least not the most significant impact on stock price. Why? Most of the gains we have seen in prior Bull Markets are due to P/E expansion, and not earnings gains. Thats purely a function of psychology (more on this tomorrow).
UPDATE: August 30, 2005 5:26pm
Actually, my title is excessive — Stein did say something that makes a whole lot of sense: Investors should buy a diversified basket of Indices or ETFs that cover stocks, bonds and commodities. Thats good, simple, low cost advice for most people.
BTW, here is my favorite of Ben Stein's work:
Economics Teacher: In 1930, the
Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the
effects of the… Anyone? Anyone?… the Great Depression, passed the… Anyone?
Anyone? The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or
lowered?… raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal
government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and
the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression. Today we have a similar
debate over this. Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone seen
this before? The Laffer Curve. Anyone know what this says? It says that at this
point on the revenue curve, you will get exactly the same amount of revenue as
at this point. This is very controversial. Does anyone know what Vice President
Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. "Voodoo" economics.

Monday the iPod maker began distributing e-mail invites to the event, which will

"1000 songs in your pocket changed everything. Here we go again,"
the invite reads, in part. The slogan "1000 songs in your pocket" was

Principal's Message: Week of November 23rd
This week is a short week. Monday is a regular day and Tuesday is a minimum day. 4th block will end at 2pm on Tuesday. Students and teachers do not have school on Wednesday, but the main office will be open until 3pm. The school will be closed Thursday and Friday.
We will have a School Site Council meeting in the library on Monday from 4-5:30.
We are having a visit on Tuesday @ lunch from the El Cerrito Fire Dept. who would like to speak to any students (any grade level) interested in becoming a Paramedic, an EMT, or a firefighter. There is also a scholarship for seniors to learn about. Captain Dave Ciappara, a paramedic and firefighter will be our guest - That's Career Center @ Lunch, Tuesday.
Also, we would like to congratulate our Senior Class as they conclude most of their college applications this week. Great job Gauchos!! We will be well represented across the Country by our Class of 2015.
Seniors, mark your calendars - January 13 is our CASH FOR COLLEGE Night - more info to come.
Congratulations to the cast and crew of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" for another memorable and successful production. A special shout out to George Elsbury and Lavonia Bobo for taking on the challenging roles of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and a giant thank to our theater teacher and director Ms. Bush and technical director Kevin Little.
Congratulations to Anna Tong, Co-editor–in-Chief of the ECHS 2015 Yearbook on a successful submission of the first deadline of the 75th edition of our ECHS yearbook. Anna guided the editorial staff to be recognized as one of the best first submissions of yearbook pages in many years. If you haven't purchased your 2015 yearbook, now is the time before prices rise on January 1st.
Please mark your calendars for this year's graduation ceremony. The ECHS class of 2015 will be graduating on Saturday, June 6th at 12:30 PM at the Richmond Auditorium.
I am pleased to announce that our School Climate Report Card is out for this year and our scores continue to rise. This data is based on The California Healthy Kids Surveys that our students complete in the Spring and our Truancy data. When ranked with similar schools in California, ECHS is currently sitting at the 91st percentile. Thank you for your feedback Gauchos!!
Please do not forget to complete your "Online Meal Application" so that your student can receive free or reduced lunch. The application is quick and easy to fill out and can be accessed directly from the home page of the West Contra Costa Unified School District website under "Online Meal Application". The application must be completed annually so if you have not renewed you application from last year please do it as soon as possible as last year's service will expire at the end of September.
I would like to remind everyone of a couple of important school policies. Students should have ID's with them at all times. ID's not only help support the safety of the campus, but they are also required in the cafeteria for students to receive free and reduced lunch. With the warm weather right now it is particularly important that everyone dress appropriately. More specifically, all shirts should be long enough to overlap a pair of pants or a skirt. Students not dressed appropriately will be required to wear a loaner shirt or call home for a change of clothes. It is also important to remember that El Cerrito High School has a closed campus policy so at no point should a student leave campus during the school day without being signed out of the main office. This also means that students are not allowed to leave campus during lunch. Please remind your student of these policies as we would like to avoid students missing instructional time for not meeting these expectations.
Please help keep our school and community looking beautiful by not leaving trash laying around on campus or when you are walking through the community. We are extremely fortunate to have such a beautiful facility, but it takes all of us working together to ensure it stays that way.
Please note that the staff parking lot off of Eureka is no longer accessible as a drop off and pick up area for students. Only staff vehicles are permitted in the Eureka parking lot. We appreciate your support with this adjustment.
Principal Luongo

Robert E. Lee, general of all the Confederate forces during the Civil War, was born Jan. 19, 1807. I have been researching Lee's history and have found many fascinating bits of information about him. I shared some of my findings in my column last week and I will do the same now. I have read many articles, books and some letters that Lee and his family wrote to each other. One tiny book - perhaps it should be called a pamphlet - was written by the Rev. William Mack Lee, who served as Gen. Lee's slave, bodyguard and cook during ...
The Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness took a swing at fixing Georgia's outdated tax system and hit a triple.
It detains almost 200 people at Guantanamo Bay, the facility that Amnesty International calls "a global symbol for injustice and abuse."
Dear Editor: This letter is in response to the op-ed column written by Jennifer Jeffers in the Saturday, Jan. 29, issue.
House Majority Whip Ed Lindsey, R-Atlanta, and I decided to quit lobbing mortars at each other and do what we should have done earlier – talk about his proposed legislation to evaluate teachers.
The 2011 legislative session of the Georgia General Assembly has officially begun. Although we were forced to take a couple of days off for the snow and ice storm that many across the state experienced, we began session Jan. 10.
Day 3 (Jan. 24): According to our state's constitution, we start our legislative session on the second Monday of every January. The governor gives his State of the State address during the first week and at that time presents his budget proposal to the full legislature.
Be careful what you ask for, because you may get it. That old saying has likely been on the minds, if not the lips, of many members of the Georgia General Assembly since the special tax reform council delivered its recommendations Jan. 7.
How many times have we sat down to watch old movies, and what does this do for us?
Hope for wiser heads and wiser policies springs eternal in Georgia, and one of the few recent encouraging signs has been hearing top state elected leaders sounding like adults when they speak.
Dear Editor: In regard to Roy Hubbard's letter published Jan. 26, I wish to thank the gentleman for his service to our country, and for taking the time and effort to engage in conversation about the bullying issue facing our kids.
By Jennifer Jeffers
I usually dance around the topic of children in this column, because I don't have any.
When Georgia's Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness released its recommendations on Jan. 7, headline writers trumpeted the council's proposal to eliminate the sales tax exemption for groceries. That proposal is but one part of a far-reaching reform that would enhance the state's economic competitiveness and streamline Georgians' taxes.
Judging by the past three decades, there's no worse fate than getting touted as the next global superpower.
Editor, An editorial cartoon by R. McKee serves as a modern take on the old Hans Christian Anderson tale about the emperor who was swindled by to weavers who promise to make him a suit of clothes that is invisible to people who are stupid and incompetent. When the emperor and his cabinet members cannot see the clothes, they pretend to be able to see them for fear of being deemed unfit for their positions. In reality, the swindlers only pretended to make the suit and clothe the emperor. He isn't wearing anything.
On my "to-do" list last week was a reminder to call former Gov. Carl Sanders and see if he had any thoughts on how to get the field at Sanford Stadium named for UGA's former coach and athletic director Vince Dooley. I knew he would like the idea and perhaps could jerk a few chains I seem to have been unable to rattle thus far.
Back in 1966, Bobby Fuller sang about, "Robbin' people with a six-gun, I fought the law and the law won." And rightfully so - robbery is a crime. But what happens when it's the law doing the robbing and the law wins?
It started accidentally. Some good ideas and memorable moments are like that. They aren't planned. They're born, bringing with them an ability to nudge a way naturally into our lives and become a tradition.
Moms want everything and nothing at all. We want to be everywhere at once and also nowhere to be found. We want to impress everyone, handle every chore imaginable and spend every waking second bonding with our children. We also want to totally escape from life. Failure to accomplish this leads to immense guilt and, occasionally, foul moods.
Editor's note: U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Georgia, and other area elected officials will contribute periodic columns during the upcoming legislative sessions. This is a report about orientation that he went through last week.
I was on St. Simons Island last week, scarfing down massive amounts of corn-fried shrimp at the exquisite little Georgia Sea Grill, when someone came to the table to inquire if Junior E. Lee had finished his analysis of the recent election. That really puffed up Junior when I told him.
One afternoon, I had a hankering, a primal-like craving, for a supper of pinto beans and cornbread with a tall glass of cold, rich buttermilk thrown in for good measure and extra filling.
Typically, I use this weekly column to address parenting issues, reflect on challenges faced by (fairly) new moms and provide what I hope are amusing anecdotes that stem from daily life encounters with a toddler. This Sunday, though, I'm going to explore a topic that's more indirectly related to - but still very much a part of - child-rearing.
Residents of Bryan County have the opportunity Monday to show our support for a continued strong presence of the Marne Division in Bryan and surrounding counties.
This is a story I shared with some of you a couple of years ago, but given the well-deserved tributes this week to our veterans, it seems an appropriate time to share it with all of you. It is about a terrorist; an honest-to-God terrorist. Not only does he not deny the appellation, he's proud of it.
At the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have one of the most noble and inspiring missions in government. I accepted this job and joined this mission to better serve you - our veterans - and improve the delivery of the care and benefits you have earned. It is our privilege to serve you, and I have made clear that as we move forward as a department, we will judge the success of all our efforts against a single metric - the outcomes we provide for veterans.
Over the years, I've crossed paths with many who were extremely successful as well as some who were such miserable failures that, as Mama liked to say, they "ain't worth the breath they draw."
I recently saw a meme posted to a social-media site that said something along the lines of "Having children: Your way of showing the world you no longer intend to be on time - ever."
Editor, "Greater Good" is a point or ideology that has been defined, perceived and twisted. So what does this mean? I wonder if it's even fair to apply this concept because, at the end of the day, the definition is construed. Man is still making that determination.

1- How to create a lookup for a case when two marks are elevated on top of one glyph at a given height. The first mark shifts up OK but the second one overlaps it. There is a separate lookup for Marks on Marks which works fine when the marks are at their "normal" height above the anchor is there a conflict with that?
2- When typing a mark then another - for example a shaddeh then a fatha I get shaddeh and fatha on top. But when typing the fatha first then the shaddeh, the shaddeh comes out ontop making it shaddeh kasra!
3- Why do mark substitutions not work on the Mac, including ios ipad applications? I have separate glyphs for pairs of marks, and they appear fine in PC applications, but Mac relies on the positioning lookouts.
4- Do anchors created in Fontlab make their way into VOLT?
Many thanks
Without looking at the Volt project it is difficult to visualise exactly what you are trying to achieve but I will have a go:
1 + 2 Do you have a range of glyphs for mark on mark? These common mark combinations should be implemented with a ccmp feature that will give you the right combination irrespective of the input sequence. These should then get positioned by anchors in the mark feature. The mkmk feature is also used for multiple mark combinations.
3 Perhaps someone with more knowledge of Apple IOs can answer this but it may be the font requires some AAT tables to work in IOs.
4 No. You need to convert your anchor positions in FontLab to Volt lookups and groups by writing some Python to generate the Volt data, otherwise it's a very long and laborious effort putting it in by hand.
If you give some more detail of the problem 1 or add some images it would become easy for others to suggest any solution.
The problem 2 can be solved by adding a new glyph to the font (if it is not present in your font) containing the shadda and fatha in a combined shape as in the image
shadda fatha -> shaddafatha
fatha shadda -> shaddafatha
It will produce the required results.
Dear malcolm and Zuhair
Many thanks for your helpful comments...I am learning!
Yes I have glyphs with all the mark combinations, and in this test verison I put a small "a" in the glyph to distinguish it from the case when the marks are created separately on compiling.
The ccmp does have the dual combinations as suggested by Zuhair.
The trouble with the order of the marks only occurs on the Mac because it does not implement the ccmp substitutions.
The attached image shows the lookup I made for marks atop the alef-hamza glyph. However as you see the Mark-on-Alef lookup is not working - first the ccmp does not kick in in this second lookup, and secondly the marks do not lift as required. The Mark to Mark feature itself works well since the damma is placed higher than the shadda. Is it a question of defining and placing anchors on the alef-hamza, , and how do you do that?
When you look at combinations in a lookup in Volt you will see only the function that the lookup is implementing.
To see what the combinations of lookups are achieving for a given feature (or sets of features) you need to inspect the sequence in the Volt Proofing tool making sure you turn on the correct script, language, feature set.
Thanks malcolm - the figure above needs to be scrolled to the right to show the proofing tool. One thing I discovered is that the order of the lookups is important - positioning before marks on marks or vice versa?
Another question: The proofing tool shows no positioning adjustment. But the shipped font does. What am I doing right (or wrong?)
The recommended order for the positioning lookups is
I do not use proofing tool at all. It takes a lot of time.
I use MS Word 2013 to test the font and to quickly view the results of changes made in lookups. Here is how it works. Open MS Word, type the text in your font, type the words that needs some correction in the Volt project.
Now keep the MS Word open with the written text and start MS Volt, open your font it it, make the required change in the lookups, click on Compile and then click on Save. Now open the folder containing the saved font, right click on the font file and select install from the menu. It will install the font and the MS Word will apply the changes to the text in real time i.e. you do not have to restart the MS Word for the new installed font.
Also it is not required to ship the font each time for testing in the application, just compile it, save it, and install it.
It saves me a lot of time.
Thank you very much Ustaz Zuhair you have given excellent advice that indeed saves time. It seems to work with the installed Notepad (click Format to select the font) also WordPad software in Programs/Utilities. I say 'seems' because I do not have Word 2013, and in any case the changes I make in the lookups are not always reflected in the WordPad. Curiously if I select the word and click of the B for bold then the changes do occur! I need to study the lookups systematically.
How are the anchors named? Does each glyph group have its own anchor name? Or rather does each lookup need a new anchor name?
My apologies for not seeing all the image.
All those questions are really dependent on your work-flow, how you create your anchor points in FontLab and how you translate that information into Volt data. This is an image of one of my projects for the mark positioning lookup.
Although the Volt proofer can be difficult with some features, the mark feature is pretty basic and should work for Arabic marks.
You could try and export the lookup from Volt and look at the text it creates. You could experiment by changing values and seeing what effect that has when imported back into Volt.
Also, we have a font activator for Windows that is a simple drag and drop process. Very useful when you need to activate and deactivate fonts many times. You can find it here:
You can download and use the trial version of MS Word 2013 for this purpose. Also you can test the bold style in the same way, just keep the text in bold style in MS Word.
While working on a font I keep open three windows for a quicker testing (1) MS Word with the (bold or regular) text that need correction (2) Volt with the font project (3) the folder containing the working font files.
In Volt, make changes in the lookups, Compile it and Save it. then click on the folder tab and install the saved font and then quickly click on the MS Word tab to check the changes taking place. After clicking install, if you were quick in clicking the MS Word tab, you will also observe the changes taking place in the same moment.
The anchors are position specific on any specific letter. As you can observe the anchor AbvMrks (green arrow) over the letter laminitial in this image. The red arrow show the marks group that needed to be appear at this anchor position. Here (at red arrow) you can place a group of marks or a single mark or two as you need.
If you need 2 different mark positions on the same letter then you will need a new anchor for the 2nd position as shown in the 2nd image. The new anchor is named as AbvMrks2. This 2nd anchor was needed for the placement of two marks only (superscriptalef and maddasuperscriptalef.alt.b) over the same letter laminitial.
It is better to keep the number of anchors lower in a font. In most cases only one anchor for above marks and one anchor for below marks is enough for all letters. Even for MkMk, the same anchor should be used that is used for Marks. Yes, in certain cases it becomes necessary to create more anchors as observed in the 2 images.
Now, suppose, if you need two mark positions on Raa, then you should try to use the same 2nd anchor AbvMrks2 for the second position over Raa in the same lookup or in a new lookup as needed.
Suppose, you needed the 2nd anchor position over Raa for the placement of mark ShaddaFatha only. To do so, add a new lookup, in the first column place Raa, in the second column place only ShaddaFatha and in the third column write down the same 2nd anchor name i.e. AbvMrks2, and it is done.
Thank you so much Malcolm and Zuhair for your kindness. I will study your expert demonstrations - at last I am already getting results, but need to learn the various effects more by using them. I have also downloaded the font deactivator and will check it out thanks.
Things are working out and the marks stay where they are intended thanks again! As Zuhair has mentioned the marks jump to their re-set locations in Word as soon as the re-volted font is installed.
Very nice. I am still confused however in the Marks lookup about the relationship between the first glyph and the second glyph. Moving the anchor seems to affect both numerically but in use only the Mark moves. In practice that does not matter if I set the second glyph to zero and lock it, but I am curious why the two sides are adjustable if one suffices?
Have you looked into the volt project of Arabic Typesetting font that is provided with MS Volt? Have you placed the marks lookup in the mark feature and marks to marks lookup in mkmk feature? Does the problem occur on Mac only?
No, yes, yes, yes !
For testing your fonts in Apple environment on iOS 7 devices see http://typophile.com/node/114930
You should look over the volt project of Arabic TypeSetting font, and compare its mark and mkmk lookups with your lookups. It might be helpful. This font is provided with MS Volt. Look into the Volt installation directory, there will be a file named as Volt Supplemental files, execute it and it will produce the arabtype.volt.ttf file. It is a ttf file with volt project. Open it in Volt to check its lookups.
Also if you could add an image of your mark lookup and an image of your mkmk lookup so that it would be helpful in giving some suggestions.
Thank you for your suggestions I will check them - currently lots of work on the outlines and it seems the marks and mkmk schemes are working nicely - I will be sure to ask you for advice soon!
Hello again - as promised, here I am asking for more advice. In the Marks panel in Volt some of the Marks appear twice, once in gray and once in black - what does that signify? Thanks for your help.
Hi Tamari,
The grey mark or marks are usually additional marks in a ligature glyph where you can place one mark above or below each letter by alternating the Component number in the above right side of the lookup. If the ligature has two letters, you will have two marks, if it has 3 letters, there will be 3 marks, and so on.
In your figure, it doesn't appear that any of these glyphs in Position First should be a ligature, so check your glyphs information in the Glyph Editor in VOLT and assign the glyph Type to Simple and Components to 1.
I just saw this. Thank you so much Mamoun for your advice. I will check the glyph info.
A more serious problem is the following: I made a lookup to lower the kasra to prevent a clash when a reh or zein etc. goes under an initial yeh etc. then a kasra clashes with the reh . It is not working in practice -as you can see in the screen shot - same in Word text. What am I doing wrong? Please scroll to the bottom right of the image to see the clash however I lower the BelowMarks group.
With best regards from Vladimir
It means you need two kinds of mark anchors placement below certain initial letters, one type of mark anchor that remain close to the dots under normal conditions i.e. when not preceded by reh and the other type of mark anchor that place marks far below when the letter is preceded by reh.
So I hope you should have made one lookup for the normal close marks and the image you posted is for the second lookup for the distant marks when preceded by reh.
In this look up make two changes
(1) In the header of this lookup in the PROCESS MARKS box replace ALL with BelowMarks. As you do not need the processing of above marks here in this lookup.
(2) In the lower part of the lookup, you have given the Context Before as <reh> group only while it should also contain the letter to which you are applying the new marks placement. So the context before should look like this containing the following two lines
<reh> <Yeh-init> |
<reh> <BelowMarks> <Yeh-init> |
The string in the second line will work when reh also contain below marks. So it should also be added.
Thank you so much- it worked, as you see from my photo (it shows the mark placement working and thanks Zuhair, Maamoun and Malcom)!
I have one last VOLT question - I have a lookup for marks on a group of 2-component lam-alef ligature group - It works if I say it only has one component in the lookup panel. The problem is that when I adjust the height of the marks for one member of the group, the marks for all the group are raised by an equal amount. I could not manage to raise one of the marks while the other remain in place. Thank you again for your invaluable help.
Have you put the check mark sign in the Lock 2nd Anchor box in the lower right side of the lookup. If not then check mark it.
Please post an image if the problem persists.
Thank you kindly. When do I lock the 2nd anchor - after adjustment or before? And do I lock the anchor independantly for each glyph in the group? I am not clear about this as sometimes when I lower the mark the marks in all the other glyphs are lowered too whether locked or not...I think! I am a little confused by the process. Here is a figure of the lookup.
The 2nd Anchor should be locked before adjustment for all marks but it is necessary that you have drawn all the marks outlines at the same position in marks glyphs as shown in the image
Thank you M.Z. yes I already had all the marks on the same level. The method you explained above and in your earlier comments is the one I have been using to adjust single marks. My problem now is with two marks on a ligature. When I adjust a certain combination, for example the black kasra higher than the gray one (as in my lam-alef example image), the same effect is transmitted to the other glyphs. I want to avoid that adjust each pair individually.
Best wishes.
I have no idea how to solve this problem.
It is I who thank you sir!
The solution to the mark placement problem on the lamalef has been provided by Ustaz Mamoun Sakkal (one of the top experts in Arabic typography) in his note above 19 April, but I did not understand it fully at the time:
The lamalef ligature has two components. In the lamalef-mark lookup click Component 1 in the upper right corner. This allows you to adjust the first mark on the lam, and the mark is in black, while there remains an immovable gray mark. Then click to change the component number to 2, and the second mark becomes black (i.e. it is now the active one) while the first becomes gray. Adjust the second mark on the alef or the hamza on alef etc. That is all. The same process can be used for the الله or لله ligatures where the number of components are 4 and 3 respectively.
Thank you Mamoun it works fine now.
But it was not the problem you were facing. The problem you mentioned in your post was something else as narrated by you
The problem is that when I adjust the height of the marks for one member of the group, the marks for all the group are raised by an equal amount.
Apologies if the way I expressed my problem was unclear. In practice it now works when Component 1 then component 2 are set.
Thank you Zuhair.

- 1 1/2 pound good quality plain chocolate
- 10 fl. oz. double cream
- small glass malt whisky
Bring cream to the boil. Remove from heat and add half the chocolate (broken up). Stir gently until chocolate melted and thouroughly mixed. Add the whisky and stir until well mixed in. Transfer mixture to a metal bowl (I don't bother with this and just keep it all in the original saucepan) and place in a bowl of iced water. Beat with a wooden spoon until cool and thick. Transfer mixture into piping bag and pipe into 2.5 cm rounds on sheet of greasproof paper. Place in fridge to firm up. Remove from fridge and roll into balls (original recipe suggests dusting hands with icing sugar to prevent sticking but it doesn't seem to work). This is incredibly messy. Make sure you have a bowlful of hot water to plunge your hands into afterwards or else you'll end up with chocolate covered taps. Keep balls on greaseproof paper and chill in fridge again until firm. I actually put mine in freezer section for about 1/2 hour. Melt the remaining chocolate. Try to do this with as little heat as possible or else the balls will rapidly disintegrate with the heat. Using small forks dip each ball into melted chocolate and cover thouroughly. Do each ball as fast as possible. The original recipe suggested rolling each ball in cocoa while the chocolate is still molten but I reckon this will cause ball breakdown due to the extra handling involved.

|Jets' Clemens, Tuiasosopo and Smith look forward to last shots at extended playing time
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 28 August 2007 10:59
It's unclear how much - or if - starter Chad Pennington will play against Philadelphia on Thursday night, so that could mean even more playing time for Clemens.
``This is a big game,'' Clemens said Tuesday. ``This will be the last chance that I know that I have a pretty good chance of playing. You want to go out there, hopefully finish strong and put on a good showing.''
The second-year quarterback has done a nice job of that so far in the preseason. Clemens has consistently moved the second-team offense, going 28-of-39 for 352 yards and four touchdowns, run for another score and thrown two interceptions.
``It's definitely a lot easier being in my second year right now,'' Clemens said. ``We had a lot of time in the offseason to work and get more comfortable in the offense. Things are fortunately coming together for us. The game is slowing down at this point, as it should. In your second year, things should become more clear.''
Clemens has done all he can to clarify the quarterback situation by outperforming Pennington and appearing to lock up the backup job.
``That is based on Coach's evaluation and what he thinks,'' Clemens said. ``Right now, I think offensively, the second group has moved the ball and scored some points, but we still have some things to tighten up. Hopefully, we can finish it off.''
Clemens' performance this summer has instilled confidence that he can take over if Pennington - who had shoulder operations in consecutive seasons before last year's comeback - goes down with an injury.
``He's really established himself as a solid NFL quarterback and he continues to get better every day,'' said wide receiver Justin McCareins, who has benefited from Clemens' emergence with six catches for 146 yards and a touchdown.
The game against the Eagles will be crucial for Marques Tuiasosopo, who's competing with Brad Smith for the No. 3 job. The veteran, entering his seventh season, signed with the Jets in the offseason with eyes on the backup spot.
While Clemens has seized that role, Tuiasosopo has been limited to mop-up duty. He's 7-of-13 for 68 yards and a touchdown.
``With the reps that I have had in practice and in games, I think I have shown that I am capable of operating this offense,'' Tuiasosopo said.
Tuiasosopo played in just 11 games, with two starts, in his first six NFL seasons with Oakland and the results were less than spectacular. That perhaps makes Thursday night even more crucial for Tuiasosopo.
``Anytime we go out and play, I feel like it is a great opportunity to showcase what I can do and how I can help this team,'' he said. ``Whether it was the last game, two games before that or this upcoming game, they are all important.''
As Tuiasosopo fights for a roster spot, Smith's place is secure because of his versatility. He played quarterback at Missouri, where he was the first player in NCAA history to pass for at least 8,000 yards and run for at least 4,000. The Jets drafted him last year as a wide receiver, and Smith lined up at that position, as well as quarterback and running back.
Heading into this training camp, Smith is listed only as a quarterback, although he has played regularly at wide receiver. He has seen even less time than Tuiasosopo under center in the preseason, going 4-of-7 for 21 yards.
``It helps in understanding the big picture, what everyone is doing and how each spot fits into the whole plan,'' Smith said of playing quarterback. ``Understanding the plan and all the protections has been a great help to me and I'm still picking up more and more everyday.''
The question coach Eric Mangini will have to answer by Saturday's cutdown day is whether he's comfortable with Smith as his No. 3 quarterback instead of Tuiasosopo.
``We have another opportunity here to watch Tui and Brad and see, again, what they look like, operating the team against an opponent outside of practice,'' Mangini said. ``This is an important viewing for us in terms of that.''

Getting Started With Dutch Oven Cooking
If you can cook in a dutch oven you can cook anywhere and anyplace–literally and figuratively. Yes, you can cook indoors and outdoors, in a stove, over a fire, in a hearth, on a wood stove, even in a sun oven, which is all pretty amazing. But there is something about that knowledge that spills into other parts of your culinary life. Maybe, it's the nostalgic images of our ancestors cooking over an open flame in a dutch oven that gives you confidence that the way has been paved, perhaps it's simply the knowledge that if you can't get it to work the way you want with one method you can find another, or maybe it's just the attitude of if they're hungry they'll eat it as people have done for centuries because what is cooking in the dutch oven is what's for dinner.
Getting Started with Dutch Oven Cooking
Dutch ovens can be made of ceramic, clay, or cast iron. I will be focusing on cast iron dutch ovens in this post as they are the most common and most versatile dutch ovens. [Read more…]
The Easiest Way to Get Worms Out of Broccoli
Many years ago, when I had my first broccoli harvest from my very own garden, I was talking to my mom about the pesky green cabbage worms hiding in the nooks and crannies. She told me about the simple kitchen trick that she used that might just be the easiest way to get worms out of broccoli. Of course, you can eat the worms. My sister ate one last year on cooked broccoli and said it tasted like broccoli. I'm just not that hungry. [Read more…]

love this eyeliner!
I had been previously using the Rimmel Scandaleyes Gel Liner but I find this to be not 100% black, sticky and smudgy!
I tried the L'Oreal Super Liner in 'Black Lacquer' - I had read reviews (almost all amazing) and so I picked it up in Boots!
I'm so glad I picked this up! It's so so black and doesn't smudge at all! Beautiful glossy black finish and the applicator is so easy to use! Although it did take a while to get used to the felt tip after using a brush for so long!
I like this eye liner because it's super super black and the application is really easy and it's long lasting. the major downside for me was it dried within a few weeks and on the actual applicator it went all dry and flaky and it was quite hard to get proper product on the applicator to apply. this might just have been mine but I was slightly disappointed.
I've been using the L'Oreal Super liner for more then 5 years now and I won't even look at another liquid eyeliner.
The Carbon Gloss was by far the best liquid liner I have ever come across, it has brilliant staying power, it's easy to apply and dries pretty quick so it doesn't smudge.
I was absolutely gutted when they discontinued the 'Carbon gloss' super liner as it had been a makeup staple of mine and so reliable when it came to applying my eye makeup. I decided to stick with the Super liner collection of eyeliners and tried out a few of the others to find a close match.
I originally tried the one in the gold tube which I think was the 'ultra precision' liner as a lot of reviews said it was the nearest to the Carbon gloss but it was awful, it wasn't as black and not very pigmented and after awhile it became quite crumbly and flakey.
I found that the one that most closely resembled the Carbon gloss was the Black Lacquer and have been using that one ever since.
If the Carbon Gloss was to make a comeback though I would return to using it in a flash as it had been my favourite for so long.
Overall the L'Oreal super liner collection is one of the best affordable liquid eyeliners on the market.

It's a shame I can't find this product in my country and have to keep on relying on International online purchasing. I love this eyeliner. It esse the first liquid eyeliner I tried and so far the best one.
I liked the Carbon gloss version, but can't find it anywhere. That was some really black glossy and waterproof eyeliner. Anyway, the normal version is good too, although not as waterproof - still, it holds very very well.
Application is fairly easy for those with some (even a little) liquid eyeliner experience. I find like this felt tip distributes product very well and it doesn't move product around like others on the market. I get thin or thick black black black lines. I do think the point could be a little pointier (yeah! I mean, finer) for that very fine line on the inside corner and for that beautiful fine flick, but it is still a good product.
an awesone felt tip eye liner. provide instense black with glossy finish.however the application is a bit thicker for everyday use. its water resistant. sweat proof and smudge proof.
The eyeliner pictured is the carbon black version which was discontinued. I use it's replacement - the superliner ultra precision (gold tube). I don't notice a difference, other than the tip of the applicator being a touch thicker. A SUPERB eyeliner. Absolutely superb. Only £6ish and long lasting. I've used it for years and am yet to be find something better. Brilliant. Completely fool proof, too. Get it.

I've been using the same eyeliner for years, and was willing to try something different. I bought Superliner in black and fell in love. The wand is quite firm with makes it easier to apply the product nearer to the tear duct.
One of the few problems is that it takes a few layers to build up a deep black colour, and the wand isn't made of soft material, so it can slightly scratch more sensitive eyes.
You can read my full review for it on my blog, check it out!
This is really decent eyeliner: I bought it to replace my usual Barry M liquid liner and it might actually be better, although I've yet to warm to it completely. It's not lying about being waterproof: I wore big cat-eye eyeliner to work yesterday and it poured with rain the whole way there, yet somehow my eyeliner didn't move! Impressed. It also doesn't seem to smudge over my lids despite oily skin- this is a big problem for me with eyeliner. It's not quite a true black colour though, it can look a little greyish. The packaging looks lovely and the brush is solid and relatively easy to apply, but it's a little large. All in all, it's a very good and reasonably priced eyeliner and I think I'll grow to love it.
Worst eyeliner I've ever had...I've always even if it's not great finished what I buy however this product I threw (I bought 2 at same time actually and threw that one unopened) because it degrades very quickly and gets sticky so u end up with half it all over your eyebrows. It smears as it breaks down too. Does this whatever the weather and humidity. I've spent many occasions embarrassed as I realise it's moved and all over the place when talking to people....
Will NEVER buy this. Makes me question their other eye liners now. Can't believe it's got great reviews?!?!?
I would definitely buy it again!
Pros :
no smudging
long stay
can be used to make thin lines
after a period of time , in which I didn't used it , it didn't dry at all
