In 1994 he accepted a position with CNA Insurance Company as the National Sales Representative.

With American Prime Asset he oversaw and managed distribution for 285 agents nationwide.
In 2002 Joe co-founded Ensurety Group, Incorporated (EGI). EGI was established with two partners to create an innovative, nationwide product distribution company for dealers, specializing in customer retention management and loyalty products and solutions. As the company grew in scope, and requirements for state-of-the-art in the technology increased, Joe partnered with MediaTrac in San Ramon, CA, the premier company in customer loyalty and media tracking solutions.
In early 2007, Joe partnered EGI's ID Advocates Program with Merchants Information Solutions, a Phoenix-based company with a 95-year history in the business community, providing companies and individuals with employment background screening and identity theft services. Most recently, in mid-2007 EGI became VERO, when Joe partnered with Credit Union Direct Lending (CUDL), based in Ontario, CA. Joe lives in Scottsdale, Arizona with his wife and two children.

Pretty good list to me… I'm loving this lo-fi electronic stuff! and I'm glad Sleigh Bells wasn't included. They are the most over-hyped artist of the past year (i know, i know… i'm alone on this one).
Other artists I really dig from this year: Keepaway, Chad Valley (looking forward to a release!), and Toro Y Moi (I know he's had releases in the past, but you could say the same for Warpaint… I saw them in '07)

I did not like this rug. It's thin, cheap looking and you can see the white edges from underneath the rug. Depending on how the rug fibers are laying, some parts of the rug appear lighter than other parts. I would not recommend this rug as it seemed low quality especially for the price. Rugsusa.com was good about taking it back for a refund.RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Though styles have come and gone, beneath them all is the fundamental principal that Momeni rugs are created to touch our senses. The Momeni standard of quality, elegance, and sophistication has been recognized time and time again with America's Magnificent Carpet Award in Atlanta Georgia.

Have you been afriaid of a pt?
- 1Jan 29, '11 by MashiraI'm a new grad RN that will be starting orientation on Valentines.
I will be working 11p-7a shift. Something that I've been wondering... are any of you at times afraid of your patients or your job?
From time to time there will be a patient w/ Schizophrenia or DID that just scares me. I don't know why. I guess the bodily harm more than anything, but also just a 'creepy' feeling. I really hope that I don't get flamed. I understand that these patients have a disease process going on just like any other.
I guess I'm just trying to see if I'm alone in this or not. The night shift is lovely, but I do have a little bit of anxiety going into it because of this (I'm your classic afraid of the dark girl, in a place where I might have a pt that scares me). It's not uncontrollable anxiety, just an odd feeling of alarm if they get too near.
Thoughts? Opinions? Experiences? Suggestions? Anything would be lovely!
Note: I'm not afraid of them in the day time, just the night. Could this just be my fear of darkness/night projecting onto the patients themselves? ARGH... I dono...
- 0Jan 29, '11 by Blackcat99Yes, I have been afraid of patients. Especially the patients who are known to have injured staff members.
We had a small woman who only weighed 110 pounds. But everytime she became violent it took about 8 guys to get her into the seclusion room. No, I am not kidding. That gal was so super strong!!!!
- 2Jan 30, '11 by Yosemite, RNOf course. When I ponder it, though, I realize it's not the client I'm truly afraid of, it's the fact that the current "standards of care," staffing and budgets are less than, um, shall we say optimal to handle the variety of clients than can and do become violet for what ever reason.
I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but I'm sick and tired of the injuries, the trips to the urgent care because I was in the position of a jailer rather than a health care professional.
- 2Feb 1, '11 by opossumI was just going to post a similar question in a thread...I too am a new grad about to start orientation at a psych hospital and I'm getting really anxious about it now. I've talked to an RN there who loves her job, but told me she'll give me all the tips on "how to not get hit." I feel like I can handle verbal and emotional assaults, but physical ones scare the hell out of me...mainly due to what you've mentioned about budget cuts and trying to do more with less.
I don't think it's odd to be afraid of pts in this setting and it's clear you understand their mental illness and needs. Just utilize your team and make sure you're never alone.
- 2Feb 6, '11 by ok2bmeof course..I had something thrown at me the other day. It was my first inevitable experience of being the target of violence in psych. Although my life was not really in danger..my reaction was "fight or flight", specifically the former. Any other context, omgosh it would have been ugly. I am very professional but I am afraid at how I will react if I am truly threatened.
- 2Feb 7, '11 by Davey Do GuideAh! The sweet sound of reality!
To you, Mashira, I applaud your enquiry, concern, and perspective. Follow your intuition- it's a higher level than cognitive when realizing posibilities. However, also realize that brain chemistry differs during the circadian cycle's typical sleep stage. We can have a tendency to be hypervigil at night when awake. So your feelings of fear may be something as simple as you working the graveyard shift.
Opossum's recommendation of utilizing your team is priceless advice. There's strength and security in numbers. Even if one team member acts as nothing more than a gopher.
I have honestly been afraid of some Patients. To the point that I could feel myself shake in their presence. Oddly enough, the two times I have been injured by patients, fear was not a factor. I was stabbed by a beloved Undifferentiated Schizophrenic and sucker punched by an Alzheimer's Patent.
But I keep doing this job. Sometimes I love it. And sometimes I just deal with it.
Carl Yung advised us to embrace our fears. I think that's what you're doing, Mashira. And I believe you will grow from this embrace. The best to you.
- 0Feb 8, '11 by chevyvYes, I'm a newer grad who's been working in a county psych hospital since July. I'm the only rn on with an lpn and 3 cna's. I have been afraid about 3 times since I started. I especially keep my guard up when a pt fixates on me. I can see whether they want to hit on me or hit me is what they are building up to. Either one is some sort of release. I get frustrated because my safety nets have huge holes. Sure I can call a code (if I can get to a phone), or I could call security before it gets too far (and hope they can come right away), or I can hide out for a few days keeping my distance and hope it blows over until the following month or week or whatever. I keep my wits about me and listen to my staff. Praying helps and I'm not a particularly religious person. This is the reality of psych nursing. So far, I wouldn't change it. To every bad there has been 5 goods. I wish you and all of us the best
- 0Feb 8, '11 by jahraYes, when a patient revealed they had a delusional system and
one of the enemies was me. We had to shift staff assignments around
so she would not escalate. I also worked outpatient and all the staff
at one point in time not only had threats , but death threats against them.
We waded through all that stress by supporting each other as a team.
And you need a cohesive team who works together to keep the
environment safe...
- 0Feb 9, '11 by DomestikaI've only had four shifts on the psych unit (I'm a psych nursing student) but yes, I've been afraid of a patient. I had an otherwise friendly 19 year old male suffering from schizophrenia storm across a room while we were having a normal, friendly conversation and begin yelling about 3" from my face. I'm scared of him! It's the unpredictability of it that makes it so scary, I think.
I'm learning that it's important to be relaxed but also keep your wits about you and keep mentally alert, watching people for changes in body language. I think that's why I'm so mentally exhausted at the end of each shift. I'm such a newbie that I haven't figured out how to be alert without being on edge!
I will say, though, that I'm lucky enough to work on a unit who has security quite readily available. They are not stationed in the unit, but they show up pretty darn quick when you call them. Not that that will actually stop you from being punched in the face if someone decides out of no where that they're going to do that. But interactions we have with potentially aggressive or threatening patients are almost always accompanied by security.
- 0Feb 23, '11 by Retired RBI'm a retired psych nurse and over the years there has been many scary situations. But I think the anxiety helps you do your job because you know anything could happen at any time. You just do the job one moment at a time.

One Last Halloween Ball
Since ancient days, artists have looked to their muses for creative inspiration. For the ultimate day-of Halloween party, you look to LACMA's Muse.
You creative party-er you.
The muse for this year's Muse Costume Ball is legendary filmmaker Stanley Kubrick. Costume Ballers will sip cocktails, get an exclusive early peek at LACMA's Kubrick exhibit and watch performers including Daedelus featuring Archimedes, Sypher Art Studios, and Astra Dance Company.
Muses will undoubtedly be rampant.
The ball is inspired by Kubrick's oeuvre: Eyes Wide Shut, Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. You'll want to use the films for sartorial inspiration; this year's annual costume contest — hosted by LACMA Film Curator Elvis Mitchell — has three-time Oscar-winning Costume Designer Colleen Atwood on the panel of judges. Prizes will be awarded for Best Masquerade Attire, Best Halloween Costume, and Best Stanley Kubrick Character.
Luckily, your super-conceptual Hal 9000 costume is good to go.
LACMA'S 9TH ANNUAL MUSE COSTUME BALL — Wed, Oct 31 @ 8pm; 21+ $75 – $100 (incl. admission, two drink tickets, parking); 21+ — LACMA, 5905 Wilshire Blvd, LA 90036. Tickets: 323 857-6010 or

December 20 2014 Latest news:
Kate Brewster who is running the London Marathon to raise funds for the Dogs Trust, pictured with Kensington. Photograph Simon Parker
Wednesday, January 30, 2013
A dog lover is hoping to raise funds for hounds when she pounds the streets of London this spring.
Kate Brewster is set run the Virgin London Marathon on April 21.
She will be raising funds for the Snetterton Dogs Trust, where she works, when she takes part in the 26.2-mile event.
The 28-year-old from Bunwell hopes to raise £3,000 for the charity.
Mrs Brewster, whose husband Tom is also taking part, said: "I'm really excited, it's something I've always wanted to do.
"The London marathon is such an iconic race. My dad did it when I was six or seven and I remember going to watch him and the atmosphere was amazing."
The supporter relations officer has been out training up to five days a week and runs with her dogs Dusty and Dalton.
To sponsor, Mrs Brewster, go to www.justgiving.com/raisepoundsforhounds.

Until May 11, 2012, you can sign up (registration link) to get free Hyatt Platinum status for 90 days if you have any Visa Signature card. The registration page is buggy and works best if you use Internet Explorer. Hyatt Platinum members get a 15% point bonus on stays, free internet, preferred rooms and 2pm late checkout.
To retain the status you can do one of two things:
1) Stay 8 paid nights at any Hyatt within the 90 days of your trial membership
2) Get the Hyatt Visa, which automatically grants Platinum status. The reason why you'd want to enroll in this challenge before getting the card is that Hyatt gives two suite upgrade certificates to those who have Platinum status when they apply for the card (those who have Diamond status get their free nights in a suite) and spend $1,000 in the first 3 months. So once your account reflects Platinum and you get the card, you'll get two certificates that will upgrade any paid room reservation to a suite for up to 7 days each. These are the same suite upgrades that Diamond members get every year.
TPG reader Mason also tipped me off about a current offer for the Hyatt Card that will issue you a statement credit of $75, effectively waiving the first year's annual fee, with your first purchase. You can find the details on the offer page. So effectively, with this combination you'd be getting at least 90 days of of Platinum status, two nights at any Hyatt and two suite upgrade certificates all for free.

The 2011 Esquire Grooming Awards
Every year since 2006, I've gone through hundreds of gels, creams, and even talcs all in search of the best new products for men. Yeah, it fills my shower. But not as much as the idea of helping you fills my heart.

I had some great success on spark a year ago last summer, and translated some of the things I learned into good habits. Other things I learned fell by the wayside, and perhaps, now I am ready to build a little more momentum (good image, Nadia).
I had a bicycle ride through rural farms, with some WICKED hills, and some coasting. I focused on the scenery only when the hills werent too challenging. When things got hard (read lowest gear ratio) I focused on the present and each spin of the pedals. It got me through.
I didnt make the 14 miles I targeted, but then I got on the wrong road anyhoo. So I am celebrating my 6 (5.88 yeah, yeah) and the weakness in my quads. Yay me. Yay you!
anthropologist Mimi Nichter, PhD, of the University of Arizona, has learned that fat talk is perceived as normal by young people but also...
if one is negative the group will echo negative body image statements AND
if one person is POSITIVE, the group is more likely to respond with pro body statements.
So Im going to try to infect one person a day with a compliment and a positive self statement. Maybe someone will return the favor...
I have had a few months off to flounder. Nothing like a lack of organization to illisutrate why its wise to keep organized.
Thanks for all who PINGED me and reminded me of the existence of spark.
journaling, tracking and exercising are my goals today. Planned this weeks meals last night and now the fun begins.
So I hiked in a "warm" storm to an alpine ecosystem on a leg of the AT to the ridge of Mt. Moosilaukee. The trees are short to adapt to the conditions available to them. Signs posted indicated that this ecosystem is very fragile. Ignorant people could destroy the plants' tenuous hold on the thin soil with a careless step. The plants didn't choose for their seeds to germinate on a mountaintop, but there they grew where cast.
This wasn't the kernel of wisdom I had hoped to find, but I am comforted that like the alpine trees, I too am making the most of what is available. Some of my hardships are self-chosen, but I am thriving. And I will continue to find just a little more sustenance in the deep winter around me.
I have had an interesting two weeks of dates and find my spark routine completely disrupted. I am gaining weight, and losing exercise opportunities.
Tomorrow however, I have made a date with myself and will be trekking into some remote territory to see my camp in the woods. i am hoping to reconnect with my self and goals in the Maine woods and bring back some kernel of wisdom so that the two worlds can meet.
Its new to me, this dating thing, and it will take a while to find how it can fit into my life.
Patience, self, I will figure it out!

Live your Unitarian Universalist values out loud. Make your year-end gift today!
About Us
Press Room
Page Navigation
(12 minutes)
Imagine a church that's open to hearing your questions and doubts.
Welcoming all who come there. And leaving no one out.
Imagine all the people living for today.
[Cynthia speaking]
We have gone where few congregations have gone before. This congregation has taken the bold step. We are not only a church of ourselves, but we are a church of a community. And we have a community in need, in great need. And we need to get out of ourselves and assist them. And interestingly enough, by assisting them, we have helped ourselves.
[Wendy speaking]
This congregation is very bold, and has done something very bold by buying a second campus in the city of Harrisburg. And that's very scary to the congregation and to me, but we did it anyway because we know that it's an important thing to do…
[Clay speaking]
And I think that just purchasing a building and coming in and becoming a part of a community, a community that many of us really turned our back on, didn't really want to know existed, and the opportunity to come, worship a few times a month has really helped people understand that many of the stereotypes and many of the ideas that maybe they had of Allison Hill and the people who live here really was unfounded. And I think that the more that we come to this place and make connections with the individuals here in Allison Hill, the better off we'll be.
[Gloria speaking]
By the time we got to the end, the church had pretty much split. I had lost some of my dearest friends. It was just terrible. There was enough commitment by a few people—we were down to a very, very small attendance, but it went on. I don't know that we saw much of a future.
There is a little engine in this congregation that keeps on going and keeps on going. And I think it was getting down to the core, getting down to what the core of this church was, what they believe, and how important this church is to so many people of this area, and not being able to imagine central PA without a liberal religious community.
(Song)…deep in my heart, I do believe…
And we started to forgive each other in what we had done, and then looked forward to bringing a settled minister in.
[Kevin speaking]
My family decided to stay with the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg after that initial attraction because there were so many different programs and classes and social action projects that we could be involved in, and there were people that invited us to be a part of that.
When I went to the Pride Fest, I was amazed again at the number of people from our Unitarian church and many of the Unitarian churches in central PA that were there to be the shield between the parade participants and the protesters.
I wish I was as good as some of the people who do…I mean, their doing that prompts me more to do the Race Against Racism and things that aren't necessarily for myself.
Probably 2003-2004, I could see that we were physical having space issues and that there were limits to the programs we could do in the church because committees and groups would be vying for the same space.
We all agreed that we needed more space; we just didn't know exactly how to go about. Whether it be building a church or figuring out how to raise funds to renovate our current building, or moving into Harrisburg.
[JD speaking]
I saw the pitfalls of taking on a building this large and the age that this building is, but they didn't really frighten me. What frightened me was that the congregation itself would experience a tension around the decision about whether to move forward with this, that the personal and emotional and spiritual bonds that held this church together wouldn't hold. I'm relieved now a year and a half later to see that…I won't say I needn't have worried, but everything has turned out fine.
Well, the congregational meeting in 2008 was really an experience to behold. It was…well, leading up to the meeting, none of us really know what to expect. We didn't know if people would storm out in anger, or if we would all just hold hands and sing songs and agree on most things. It was one of the more interesting church meetings that I've ever been a part of.
It had been a week of controversy. Emails back and forth, flame wars even, people very concerned, on the one hand that we wouldn't take this once in a lifetime opportunity that was so in line with what we said we wanted to do, and on the other hand, people extremely concerned about taking on a huge new expense, and debt related to that expense, right in the middle of a recession. Many people were concerned about the neighborhood itself. There was concern about whether there was an undercurrent or a conspiracy, maybe, to move the entire congregation to this building and get rid of this old building that was so beloved to many in the congregation…and that all came to a head during the last few days of that week. And in the end, it came down to a vote, either we were going to do this risky thing, or not do it. This was a decision where you had to vote yes or no.
[Leta speaking]
I think that any time you are on an adventure together, any time you are growing, any time you really are engaged in a good measure of discovery, and of taking risk, I think that's a really messy proposition. And so, it hasn't been neat, and we haven't tied everything up in a bow, and there are times when we have argued mightily among us, and where there've been hurt feelings, and maybe not such great feelings, and I just think that's part of our struggle together, and that's part of the risk that we take in being together.
We are striving to live out our principles. We come to church every Sunday, we sing, we hug, we listen to Howard's incredible sermons, and that's all good. But what really is going to be important as we go forward is to show people that we don't just talk the talk, but we also walk the walk. We find opportunities, we look for opportunities, and we don't just watch them from afar, but we get involved.
There are no limits. There are no limits at this point.
People all over the world, join hands, start a love train, love train. Next stop we make will be England. To tell all the folks in Russia and China too. Don't you know that it's time to get on board and that this train will keep on riding, riding on through.
I don't think we ever get this work done. There will never be a destination. And somehow we have to get settled with that, we just have to be ok with that.
The congregation has stepped over this little white line, and is starting to see what it's like on the other side, and I can't imagine that they're going to want to stop.
We will never, ever get this work completely done.

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is close to agreeing a short-term contract extension with the Italian champions.
Buffon recently registered his 100th appearance in European competition as Juve qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League, but revealed he is not seeking a long contract.
The 34-year-old told juventus.com: "We need to speak about its length.
"I want it to be a short-term deal because I don't need reassurance; on the contrary, I think it's better to have motivation. In any case we're down to the final details."
Juventus are currently four points clear of Inter Milan at the top of Serie A after beating Palermo 1-0 on Sunday.

Emilie Autumn
Emilie Autumn is a classically trained violinist that combines her killer strings with metal, industrial, and gothic rock. As of 2011 the artist has released 6 solo albums with a 7th, titled Fight Like a Girl, on the way. Emilie has paired up with such notable artists as Courtney Love, Billy Corgan, OTEP and Dethklok from TV's Metalocalypse, as well as lending her skills to soundtracks for Saw III and IV.

text: Ferrari accepts FIA decision on Vettel overtake and considers matter closed 30 November, 2012 Nov.30 (GP247) Ferrari has accepted the FIA decision regarding the controversial overtake move by Sebastian Vettel during the Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos, which has hogged headlines around the globe for the past few days. They posted on their media site: "The request for a clarification from the FIA, regarding Vettel's passing move on Vergne, came about through the need to shed light on the circumstances of the move, which came out on the Internet only a few days after the race. The letter to the FIA was in no way intended to undermine the legality of the race result." "We received tens of thousands of queries relating to this matter from all over the world and it was incumbent on us to take the matter further, asking the Federation to look into an incident that could have cast a shadow over the championship in the eyes of all Formula One enthusiasts, not just Ferrari fans," explained the Maranello team. "Ferrari duly takes note of the reply sent by the FIA this morning and therefore considers the matter now closed," concluded the communique. Red Bull stated on their website: "We are pleased, but not surprised, that the FIA has confirmed there is no case to answer regarding the 2012 Brazilian Grand Prix. We are extremely proud of Sebastian's incredible achievement and his third historic title, which makes him the youngest ever triple world champion." Subbed by AJN. Tweet Related NewsVettel vs Alonso: May the best man winVettel can take nothing for granted this weekend at InterlagosDeep down Alonso believes he can defeat Vettel and win title in BrazilVettel: Newey said no to me testing for Ferrari in Abu DhabiMarko: Legally it's not ok that Vettel is already with FerrariRed Bull play hardball block Vettel's Ferrari testBrazilain Grand Prix: Red Bull drivers preview InterlagosFerrari View: The Brazilian challengeRed Bull marginalise Vettel ahead of his departureMarko predicts Alonso is heading back to McLaren John Isn't it funny how Ferrari have phrased this so that it sounds that they were asking out of the goodness of their heart? That they weren't seeking to overturn the results? Strange that. However, "controversial" overtaking move it was not! It was fair. Mearly it was the result of some very bad journalism that this became a story. And perhaps some unsportsman like sportsmen. Butterfly @John: There was a lot of confusion regarding the move, so Ferrari were well within their rights to ask for clarification. I still don't understand why the marshall with the green flag was staying 350m before the green LEDs. Why do you even have the LEDs if they're not aligned with the marshalls' posts. That makes no sense whatsoever and I hope the FIA will do something about that starting from next year. suhas @Butterfly I was a pit and grid marshal for the indian grand prix the same question put by you was put by course marshals they said they are looking at the matter Alonso_is_slow Alonso bad loser. The whole world can now see. He was the same bad as winner, then hi accidentaly won the 2006 title due to Schumacher's enginge car failure at Japan and Interlagos, and he said 'Schumacher will not be missed from F1′. Bad in everything. John Apparently there isn't the same number of LED displays as there are marshal points. So there's always going to be a discontinuity between them. It may be that in this case there was a marshal post further down the track which was aligned with that LED display. Hence why marshals waving flags have priority over LED and in-car displays. You must respect the marshals. And thank you to Suhas for being a marshal at the Indian GP. Butterfly @John: It's still a mess. Surely they can gather enough marshals to put one at every LED panel, can't they? It doesn't sound that hard to do. Not to mention the fact that I would get rid of the flags completely and move to an all-LED system. This is nonsense! Anthony In Brazil they had more marshal stations than LED lights. I would support getting rid of the flags and just have them as a backup system. I am willing to bet the FIA will do something about this. This looks pretty bad to the outside observer. GS before and after Schumacher era the team never built fast reliable cars. for last couple of seasons in terms of speed red cars seem just an ordinary. the italianization process of the team have failed. even we the team doesn't have 2 good drivers hence massa still on board. and also management issues have not taken well in the team. the hole world knows abput red bull cars diffusior, etc. issues, haven't you listen those stefano? and finally in this case Ferrari could not appeal in a proper way and save its rights. the Ferrari management chamber just watch the theatre powered by energy drink brand. dear board of directory if you think that you are tifosi please consider that resignation is also a kind of service. suhas Ferrari is the most amazing team ever… If redbull has to be even better than ferrari, they will take around 13 more years to go ahead in constructors and 20 more for driver titles.. because vettel is not going to be there…:D And the people who are saying alonso is slow they simply are saying to annoy people. he had 13 podiums this season and they are saying he is slow.. what a retard… Alex The appeal was a pathetic move from a team with such history. Butterfly Alex: That was no appeal, they marely requested a clarification.

Well, A good ending...shooting anybody is never a happy situation.
Read On.....Comments Alway Welcome.
The question was raised following the recent shooting of a home invader in Eliot, Maine, as to whether the resident had the right to use deadly force and shoot the man in the chest. The answer is unequivocally yes.
While the tragic incidents of accidental shootings at home are valid points in the argument for gun control, there is no better argument for the right to bear arms than protecting yourself and your home from harm.
No charges have been filed against David Oeser, 54, of Eliot, Maine, and if the police investigation proves he was defending himself, then no charges should be filed. Maine law allows residents to use deadly force if they feel their lives are threatened in their homes.
It is most important to understand, acknowledge and respect the fact Oeser is a victim of the man he shot and not the other way around. If anything, Mark Murphy, 39, of Eliot, Maine, is a victim of his own actions.
As of Friday, Murphy remained in serious condition at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.
Area police officials say they are familiar with Murphy, who has repeated convictions for assault. Most recently, he had a scuffle with patrons at a Kittery, Maine, coffee shop the day before he allegedly forced his way into Oesers home.
The fact Murphy had a violent history may further justify Oesers actions, but his decision to protect himself during the early morning hours came during a frantic situation without the benefit of hindsight. Oesers actions must be judged in the frame of the moment, and thus the argument that he could have shot Murphy in another part of the body to cause less significant injury has little merit. That argument is reactionary with little reason, understanding or compassion.
Oeser said hes not proud of what he did, but hes not ashamed either. Its something he had to do, he said, "a decision I didnt want to ever have to make and hope to never have to make again."
A stranger, 6 feet 2 inches tall and 330 pounds, shows up at your house in the darkness of 1:30 in the morning. He pounds on your door, forces his way inside and then refuses to leave. He is screaming and yelling incoherently. You yell, "Go away, please leave," but he keeps coming. You flee to your bedroom where you keep your gun. The man keeps coming, breaking down your bedroom door. Six-foot-2, 330 pounds. Screaming incoherently.
Four times you yell back, "Stop or I will shoot." The stranger doesnt listen. Then you fire your weapon. Where do you aim?

UNUSUAL FLAVORS AT THE Restaurant & Bar of the Boscolo ALEPH ROMA LUXURY HOTEL
Take an aperitif in the Angelo luxury Lounge Bar and you find yourself surrounded by white geometry, like a cloud in a fiery sky. In the five Star Sin Restaurant everything is red and keeps the palate expectant while you are waiting to enjoy the 'Boscolo Food Experience', homage to Italian cuisine, which gives you sensations you absolutely have to discover. The architect Adam D. Tihany took his cue from the sixth circle of Dante's Inferno, that for the greedy, when creating this voluptuous setting with refined shapes and a sexy style. The suggestive atmosphere of the top-floor terrace offers the possibility of enjoying Roman evenings, when tasting an aperitif or an excellent dinner or whiling away the time after dinner.

The Alpha Psi Gamma chapter of Phi Theta Kappa attended the Alaska Fall Conference this weekend at Mat Su College. The chapter was also responsible for helping to organize workshops and present materials on the current Honors in Action Project—one of the International Honors Society's main competitive activities.
Attending the conference were chapter president and district vice president for Alaska, Diane Hawkins, along with Jeremy Miller, Victoria Richardson, and new member Kayla Hood. They were accompanied by the co-advisors Christopher Washko and Gail Renardson.
This year's Honors Study Topic is The Culture of Competition. In addition to workshops on how to plan an Honors in Action Project and keep a journal on the project, the chapter also presented a reading of a 10-minute play by Dawson Moore and then discussed how play submissions are evaluated for play labs and theatre workshops. This demonstration helped illustrate how competition factors in the arts.
For its project the chapter has chosen to focus on one of its ten themes: Food Fight!: Competition and Food. It kicked this project off with the Empty Bowl event last spring and is now working on an "Eating Local Challenge" for next month.

Check QVariant type
Hi all,
I initialize a QVariant this way:
now I need to be sure it's a float and not a double or an int.
QVariant::Type doesn't have "float" but I actually check the type this way:
- if(my_variant.type() == QMetaType::Float)
- {
- }
this seems to works but I get a warning while compiling:
- warning: comparison between 'enum QVariant::Type' and 'enum QMetaType::Type'
Is this the right way to check the QVariant type?
3 replies
After reading the sources:
Note that in Qt 5, the distinction between QVariant::Type and QMetaType::Type will most likely go away.
That's a good news…

Ableton (www.ableton.com) has given us Live 9.1,- the latest version of the company's flagship music software. This update is free to all users of Live 9 and provides several new features and improvements.
The 9.1 update delivers the ability to open two windows simultaneously on either one or two monitors. You can open Arrangement and Session Views side by side, or view Live's sample display or MIDI note editor in a separate window.
For Push users, the update to Live 9.1 introduces new melodic step sequencing capabilities. Notes may now be entered manually or played by hand in real time via Push's pads. Additionally, all of Live's automatable parameters can now be step-sequenced and edited directly from Push's encoders.
Live 9.1 also introduces a new rendering algorithm for better quality audio when exporting from higher to lower sample rates — for instance, when going from 96kHz to 44.1kHz. The update also brings a host of minor tweaks, bug fixes and improvements. All registered Live 9 users can download the free update via their user account.

|I have been saving containers for WS for the last while and am now thinking about other things that I need to gather to have ready to start planting in a few months. I was wondering what kind of soil would be best. I already have some of the type for cuttings and seed starting, but wondered if it needs to be a bit heavier mix since it is going to be outside.
Besides soil and containers, is there anything else that any of you have found useful to have?

|It's a great time of year to buy compressed bales of container soil, especially if they have a rip in the plastic. You can usually get them marked down 8-10 bucks from the 20-odd they cost retail. I have one sitting in my garage right now, in anticipation of dumping about 1/3 into a big tote to start my wintersowing.
Depending on the containers you're using, waxed produce boxes are great for keeping your bottles, etc. together on your deck/table, whatever. They seem to withstand the vagaries of winter until you're just about ready to plant out.
Old window blind slats, cut into 4-5" peices on an angle are great plant markers. I use them inside my w/s containers, marked with a wax china marker. They follow my sprouts into the garden, and are very sun/rain resistant. Hope this helps!

|Thank you so much! I had been wondering about how to keep all the pots, etc., in an upright position, and how to transport them, without making dozens of trips, if I want to move them to different areas. The waxed produce boxes are a good idea!..........and I hadn't even thought about how to mark them.....I guess it would be a good idea so that I know what is what! :) I have a lot of pots that I gathered on recycle days this summer....I couldn't believe that people would just get rid of so may pots! I have also been saving all my containers that look like they are deep enough for planting, so I am good in that department.
I am so excited to try this method...(love growing things!!) and I have been gathering seeds EVERYWHERE I go.
thanks again for your help, Wendy

|I was going to go and look at a second hand shop for some blinds to mark my pots, but instead a neighbour had four sets out at the curb yesterday. I only took one as they were large, so now I just have to get them ready! :-)
Wow!! this is sure a way to get lots of plants for cheap! Pots and containers....free; blinds for marking...free (I just have to get something to mark them now); seeds....free from gathering and trading.
What would you all say is your success rate with this method? I am being optimistic and believing that it will be hugely successful and I figure that next year I will either be very popular with people or they will run when they see me coming because I will be forcing plants on them LOL!

|Your garden is beautiful, Wendy! did you put the pop bottles over the plants after they were planted or did you just set the pots in the garden to figure out where to place them?
Thanks for the heads up about the china markers at the dollar store.
- Posted by tiffy_z5_6_can 5/6 (My Page) on Wed, Sep 26, 07 at 19:15
I really like the blinds since I first started using them this year. I have to contend with dogs, racoons, deers, etc. in the gardens and lots of times they knock the labels/tags down, breaking them and such. The blinds are another story in that I cut them into long pieces lenghtwise and place 3" in the ground for stability. Haven't had any broken or move from it's place yet.
The china marker Wendy suggests are very good. I also use Garden Markers from Lee Valley Tools. They are UV resistant and do last quite a while. So far I haven't had to replace any writing on labels.
Germination/success rate? I know it's high, but even when something doesn't make it, I'm OK because there's so much that did! I'm persistant though. It took 4 winters to get Joe Pye Weed to germinate, but then again seeds of Gas Plant (Dictamus Alba) germinated in one winter. You never know! :O)
- Posted by greylady-gardener (My Page) on Tue, Oct 9, 07 at 21:01
|Well I went back to my neighbour's garbage and took another set of blinds. :-) I still haven't gone to the dollar store and looked for the china markers yet, ...but I will soon. I also came across some great styrofoam cases that will make really good holding/transporting boxes for putting the containers of seeds in for setting them outside. I work at a grocery store and these were the cases that globe grapes come in.....I just made sure the produce guys knew that they should save them for me. I won't have to worry about them getting wet and falling apart. They will be perfect!!
Seed saving and trading is underway!! I love growing things and I can't wait to get started. I don't have a very big yard, so I am going to have a lot to give away....I am very confident about germination LOL!!
- Posted by wendy2shoes z6 S ON (My Page) on Wed, Oct 10, 07 at 18:37
|Hi greylady...just be sure to punch some drainage holes in the bottom of the styro boxes (if they're not there already). Your w/s bottles won't like being waterlogged. After my bottles start sprouting, I set them out in the garden just to get an idea of where to plant..short in front, tall in back, etc.
However, I always get a few surprises, like 4 foot tall Zinnias..(lol)
Have fun this winter..we'll be here for any advice or help...I really used this site a lot when I first started.
- Posted by greylady-gardener (My Page) on Fri, Oct 12, 07 at 21:37
|They have some slits in the bottom at the sides but could use more I am sure. I will do that before using them.
Looking forward to trying this out...I am counting on lots of advice! :)
|If your using 2 liter pop bottles the cases they come in at the stores work great, and they won't hold any water. Around here the store normally has a huge pile of them outside, just ask them.
