Ruth J. Hartman
Cecilia Fletcher yearns for true love with the man of her heart. A life of her own away from her demanding mother would be an added benefit.

Something about her doesn't ring true, but Barrington allows love to overrule his good judgment.
Can Cecilia and Barrington get past their hurt and secrets long enough to find true love?
Is the chance for love worth the risk of a broken heart?

Lies Told in Silence examines love and loss, duty and sacrifice, and the unexpected consequences of lies.

Agnes Sorel, beautiful, innocent, twenty years old, had arrived a year earlier with the court of Yolande's son, Rene D'Anjou, and remained with his mother at her request, knowing how much the King of France, her dissolute son-in-law Charles VII, would need wise guidance. As a trusted confidant of Yolande, Agnes captivates everyone she meets, and in her role as a demoiselle to Rene's wife, Isabelle of Lorraine, Agnes finds herself firmly ensconced in the royal court. Soon though, whispers at court regarding Charles's burgeoning feelings for her begin to grow, and despite her best efforts to resist, Agnes is alarmed to discover that she too is in love. Plagued by guilt but unable to deny her feelings for the King, Agnes is forced to choose between her love for Charles, and her duty to herself

Set in 16th Century Scotland Munro owes allegiance to the Cunninghames and to the Earl of Glencairn. Trapped in the 150-year-old feud between the Cunninghames and the Montgomeries, he escapes the bloody aftermath of an ambush, but he cannot escape the disdain of the wife he sought to protect, or his own internal conflict.

Intervening to diffuse a quarrel that flares between a Cunninghame cousin and Hugh Montgomerie, he succeeds only in antagonizing William, the arrogant and vicious Cunninghame heir.

"Powell does a masterful job. Highly recommended." Historical Novels Review
England, 1170. To escape a lifetime of poverty, mercenary Sir Benedict Palmer agrees to one final, lucrative job: help King Henry II's knights seize the traitor Archbishop Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral.
But what begins as a clandestine arrest ends in cold-blooded murder. And when Fitzurse, the knights' ringleader, kidnaps Theodosia, a beautiful young nun who witnessed the crime, Palmer can sit silently by no longer. For not only is Theodosia's virtue at stake, so too is the secret she unknowingly carries—a secret he knows Fitzurse will torture out of her.

The Kraals of Ulundi
by David Ebsworth

Now the British seek revenge and a second invasion of Zululand is about to take place. Within the Zulu regiments charged with repelling the assault is Shaba kaNdabuko − driven by ambition to share the glory of battle, to bring honour and cattle to his family. Meanwhile, new British soldiers are shipped out to replace those lost in the military disasters, and among them is Lieutenant Jahleel Carey, likewise also hoping that adventure will bring him a change of fortune. But there are also always those on the sidelines of conflict, profiteers like renegade trader William McTeague.

Ragnar Ulfsson must find his king a concubine. His solution is Isolde, captured while climbing the sea cliffs for falcons. Enslaved in his own way, Ragnar has few qualms about binding another to his lord for the greater good. After all, it is an honor to share the bed of a king.
Isolde does not view slavery so complacently. Like a hawk caged, she is frantic to escape. The king's hall is a bubbling stew of political intrigue and Isolde is an essential ingredient in the mix. Her only hope is Ragnar, who captured her but also promises to free her—eventually. But there is something strange about this dark Viking, oddly withdrawn and controlled, and their growing bond will lead her into greater danger still.
For Ragnar doesn't touch women. For good reason.

Past Encounters by Davina Blake
From the moment Rhoda Middleton opens one of her husband's letters and finds it is from another woman, she is convinced he is having an affair. But when Rhoda tracks her down, she discovers the mysterious woman is not his lover after all, but the wife of his best friend, Archie Foster.
There is only one problem - Rhoda has never even heard of Archie Foster.
Devastated by this betrayal of trust, Rhoda tries to find out how and why her husband, Peter, has kept this friendship hidden for so long.

Advance Reviews
"Carolingian Europe comes alive in Kim Rendfeld's sweeping story of family and hope, set against the Saxon Wars. Her transportive and triumphant novel immerses us in an eighth century world that feels both mystical and starkly real." - Jessica Brockmole, author of Letters from Skye
"A captivating historical filled with rich detail, compelling characters, and a well-paced plot that keeps the pages turning to its very satisfying end. A true delight for fans of historical fiction. I couldn't put it down." - Susan Spann, author of the Shinobi Mysteries
"The Ashes of Heaven's Pillar is refreshingly set in a less familiar medieval period – soon after Charlemagne has conquered a portion of today's Germany and its people. The characters are refreshing also, common folk instead of the lords and ladies who are the usual inhabitants of historical novels, and how they adjust to their new condition is fascinating. Altogether, this book was absorbing from start to finish." – Roberta Gellis, author of The Roselynde Chronicles

Link to the tour schedule: Hand of Fire Fireship Press Virtual Tour
Advance Praise:
In Hand of Fire, Starkston's careful research brings ancient Greece and Troy to life with passion and grace. This haunting and insightful novel makes you ache for a mortal woman, Briseis, in love with a half-god, Achilles, as she fights to make her own destiny in a world of capricious gods and warriors. I devoured this page-turning escape from the modern world!" -- Rebecca Cantrell, New York Times bestselling author ofThe World Beneath
"Suspenseful, tragic, surprising and sexy" –Nancy Bilyeau, author of The Crown and The Chalice
In Hand of Fire, Judith Starkston frees Briseis from the actions of Achilles and Agamemnon and gives her the power to become the heroine of her own story. … Starkston does a lovely job of bringing the characters to life, and her descriptions of the religious rites, the scenery of Mount Ida, and life as a woman of privilege in the ancient world put me firmly in the story. The love story between Briseis and Achilles is well-rendered, as are Briseis' relationships with her father and brothers, her nurse, and the other women in the city and in the camp. A wonderful new take on a timeless story. –Historical Novels Review
"Briseis steps out from the handful of lines she gets in Homer's epic, and fearlessly tells her own story as healer, war prize, and partner to the famous Achilles--here a godlike hero who manages to be all too human. Recommended!"–Kate Quinn, author of Empress of the Seven Hills
"In her portrayal of Briseis, Judith Starkston has cast a bright light on one of the Iliad's most intriguing sub-plots. With her fast-paced story, three-dimensional characters, and fascinating cultural details, Starkston has given historical fiction fans a tale to remember." –Priscilla Royal, author of Covenant with Hell and 9 other Prioress Eleanor mysteries
"Starkston breathes new life into an age-old tale in this masterful retelling of the Iliad. The reader experiences the terror, bravery and heartbreak of Briseis who now takes center stage in one of the most famous love triangles of all time." Elisabeth Storrs, author of The Wedding Shroud and The Golden Dice
"Absolutely loved the book. Couldn't put it down. Wonderful writing. And, I see no errors whatsoever as regards the history." –Professor Eric Cline, Chair of the Department of Classical and Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations, George Washington University

Darling of Kings
by P. J. Womack
I'm delighted to offer a signed print copy of my new novel, Darling of Kings.
This novel, published in the 400th anniversary year of the fateful first meeting of King James I and George Villiers, First Duke of Buckingham, explores the complex relationships between the first two Stuart kings, their powerful favourite and the politics of the early 17th century.
From a minor gentry background and possessing little but good looks and charm, George Villiers is pushed forward at the decadent court of James I in the hope that he will catch the King's eye and topple the current favourite, Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset. The King is immediately captivated by the handsome young man and lavishes wealth and titles upon him and his family, culminating in his being created Duke of Buckingham. Building an intricate network of patronage and influence, Buckingham's power and domination of the King results in several attempts to depose him, as the Duke becomes the most hated man in England.
Although initially the heir to the throne, Prince Charles, detests his father's favourite, he too is soon in thrall to the charismatic and all-powerful Buckingham; an obsessive and consuming devotion which will ultimately lead to confrontation with Parliament, war, and tragedy.
"Darling of Kings is a brilliant historical novel charting the meteoric rise and fall of one of the legendary characters of British history."
Andrea Elizabeth Zuvich,
17th Century Historian and Historical Fiction Writer

Next in the series is the stand alone sequel The Other Daughter, a robust tale of Daisy (Marguerite) Kirkcaldy, the illegitimate daughter of Kirkcaldy of Grange, her quest to uncover the identity of the other Marguerite Kirkcaldy, and her romance with another colorful bastard, Will Hepburn, son of Marie Stuart's third and final husband.

Elizabeth Bennet's father, Admiral Thomas Bennet, assures his daughters that his retirement from His Majesty's Navy will be the start of a new life for them all. Little does he know his family's battles have only just begun.
Well-connected and in possession of a good fortune, their entry into society should have been a triumph. However, their long-awaited first season in London proves a disaster, and the resulting scandal sends the Bennets fleeing to the wilds of Derbyshire.
Widower Fitzwilliam Darcy, the master of Pemberley, wants for nothing, most especially not a wife. From the moment the Bennets arrive in Derbyshire, Darcy's neatly ordered life turns upside down. His sons beg to keep company with their new playmates, the young Bennet twins. His mother-in-law sets her cap for Admiral Bennet. Worst of all, Darcy cannot get his mind off a certain bewitching Miss Elizabeth Bennet, but she has sworn never to let another gentleman near her heart.
Darcy's best efforts to befriend and assist the Bennet family go horribly awry, alienating first Miss Elizabeth, then her father, and finally endangering what both men hold most dear. Can the two men Elizabeth loves most set aside their pride to prevent catastrophe for their families and win the love they seek?

England is in crisis. King Edward has no heir and promises never to produce one. There are no obvious successors available to replace him, but quite a few claimants are eager to take the crown. While power struggles break out between the various factions at court, enemies abroad plot to make England their own. There are raids across the borders with Wales and Scotland.
Harold Godwinson, Earl of Wessex, is seen by many as the one man who can bring stability to the kingdom. He has powerful friends and two women who love him, but he has enemies who will stop at nothing to gain power. As 1066 begins, England heads for an uncertain future. It seems even the heavens are against Harold.
Intelligent and courageous, can Harold forge his own destiny or does he have to bow to what fates impose? This book is well researched and shows a passion for this period of time... A really really good read. Goodreads review
Packed with historical detail you really get a sense of the time period and setting. LibraryThing review

Of Honest Fame
M. M. Bennetts
Gambler, gaoler, soldier, sailor, smuggler, spyman, traitor, thief
A battle of wits against the brutal forces of Napoleon's tyranny over Europe.
On a summer night in 1812, a boy sets fire to a house in Paris before escaping over the rooftops. Carrying vital intelligence about Napoleon's Russian campaign, he heads for England. But landing in Kent, he is beaten almost to death.
The Foreign Secretary, Lord Castlereagh, is desperate for the boy's information. He is even more desperate, however, to track down the boy's assailant – a sadistic French agent who knows far too much about Castlereagh's intelligence network.
Captain George Shuster is a veteran of the Peninsula, an aide-de-camp to Wellington, now recalled from the continent and struggling to adjust to civilian life. Thomas Jesuadon is a dissolute, living on the fringes of society, but with an unrivalled knowledge of the seamy underside of the capital. Setting out to trace the boy's attacker, they journey from the slums of London to the Scottish coast, following a trail of havoc, betrayal, official incompetence and murder. It takes an unlikely encounter with a frightened young woman to give them the breakthrough that will turn the hunter into the hunted.
Meanwhile, the boy travels the breadth of Europe in the wake of the Grande Armée, witnessing at first hand the ruination they leave behind and the awful price of Napoleon's ambition.
This companion to M.M. Bennetts's brilliant debut, May 1812, is a gripping account of deception, daring and determination, of intelligence and guile pitted against brutality. Bennetts brings to vivid life the harrowing devastation wrought on the civilian populations of Europe by Napoleon's men, and the grit, courage and tenacity of those who stood against them.

Britannia: Part I: The Wall
Richard Denham and M J Trow
367 AD is one of the critical dates in British history; Roman Britain stood on the brink of chaos, but the date means little to most people now. Time has erased the memory and it is only rarely mentioned in historical books. "The Britannia Series: I - The Wall" introduces the reader to this tumultuous age and we share the adventure, confusion and bewilderment of our heroes, four common soldiers stationed at Hadrian's Wall. We find them caught up in the madness of the beginning of a chain of events which would eventually lead to the fall of Roman Britain and the beginning of the Dark Ages.
The story opens in 367 AD and four soldiers, Justinus, Paternus, Leocadius and Vitalis are out hunting for food supplies at an outpost of Hadrian's Wall when the Wall itself is attacked.
The four find their fort destroyed and its garrison killed; and Paternus cannot find his wife and son.
As they run south to Eboracum, they realize that this is no ordinary border raid. Ranged against the Romans at the edge of the world are four different peoples and they have banded together under a mysterious leader who wears a silver mask and uses the name Valentinus - man of Valentia, the turbulent area north of the Wall.
Faced with questions they are hard-pressed to answer, Leocadius blurts out a story that makes the men Heroes of the Wall. Their lives change not only when Valentinus begins his lethal sweep across Britannia but as soon as Leo's lie is out in the world, growing and changing as it goes.
Will the Wall be rebuilt and the power of Rome re-established? And will our four Heroes reach the end of their journey?

No. Best to hope for nothing beyond friendship and spare herself a broken heart.
Baldwin Rutledge is desperate to stop his aunt from trying to find him a wife. So he decides to distract her by procuring a second cat for her.

The Unwanted Earl
by Ruth J. Hartman
Amelia Talbot has been issued a death sentence. At least it feels that way. The thought of marrying a man old enough to be her grandfather sends her into a panic. So much so that she sets off on a desperate search to find another man to marry her—quickly.
Conrad Croome, the Fifth Earl of Lofton, knows all too well that blackmail isn't the way to form a marriage. How ironic that one Amelia Talbot uses a Croome family secret he'd thought long buried to force him to marry her.
Is Conrad doomed to a life of marriage based on an exposed secret, or could Amelia learn to love an unwanted earl?

winter days
somehow this week it's been more like summer than winter and i'm starting to ditch the coats and reach for the shorts and sandals. while i have always been a winter baby i have to admit i'm enjoying the burst of warmth and have been trying to make the most of it. although knowing me give it a couple of months and i'll be crying for winter once again…
grid lines
monki grid print tee, camilla & marc leather pants (cheaper here), proenza schouler bag
this is the most accurate depiction of what i've been living in as of late: loose easy tees (with a coat thrown on top), leather pants/leggings/skirts, one of my two beloved proenzas and…those boxy flats. ah, how i love them and i am unashamed to say they have barely left my feet since arriving last week. with my (offline) schedule crazier than ever i've taken to dressing for comfort above anything else, but finding ways that suit my style (read: always incorporating leather and wearing furkenstocks) means staying true to my hobo-esque appearance (a good thing, to me at least!)
the ultimate
celine cross strap sandals
because sometimes, you just need something crazy to add a little spark to an otherwise unassuming wardrobe.

My headlights work just fine, but my tail lights, license plate lights, running lights and dash lights won't work. I've changed the fuses and replaced the illumination relay and the bulbs and they still won't work. I've also checked to make sure the switch on the steering wheel console was off and there seems to be no problem there either. My rear wiper stopped working a while before the lights quit working, and I had to disconnect the rear wiper motor because it was making an awful noise whenever the car was on. Not so concerned about getting the wiper functioning, but thought it may be related somehow. I tried plugging the motor back in and it had no effect on the light situation.

DocuSeries Provides An Inside Look Into Lawrence General Hospital
This is really cool. My firm's client, Lawrence General Hospital, will be featured in a documentary series that initially airs on July 6th at 10pm on Discovery Fit & Health. The award-winning program from Maverick TV, Bizarre ER, features fascinating and strange cases of medical survival that come through hospital emergency department doors. This season marks the first time the medical documentary series has been filmed at a U.S. hospital. According to Executive Producer Mark Downie, the fifth season of the popular series will be accessible to over one billion potential viewers worldwide.
Filmed on location in the U.S. at Lawrence General, in the United Kingdom and with follow up stories from around the world, each 30 minute episode of BIZARRE ER follows several patients facing an unusual injury, from the moment they walk through the doors of the emergency room. Viewers will join patients through the process of diagnosis, treatment, and ultimately discharge from the hospital. From body piercings gone awry to an eye glued shut, BIZARRE ER brings viewers into the lighter side of the emergency room.
"We are thrilled that Discovery Channel and Maverick TV selected our high-efficiency Emergency Center for the series. Viewers around the globe will soon be witness to the depth and breadth of the care provided at Lawrence General, as well as the compassion and capabilities of our amazing clinical team." states Dianne J. Anderson, President & CEO, Lawrence General Hospital.
"Our Emergency Center is renowned for superior care delivered in a highly-efficient manner. Our strength is derived from our team of talented, dedicated physicians, nurses, consulting specialists, technicians and support staff; we are excited to be able to offer viewers a glimpse into the care delivered each and every day at Lawrence General Hospital." adds George Kondylis, MD, FACEP, Chief of Emergency Medicine, Lawrence General Hospital.
"I was amazed at the professionalism, capabilities, efficiency and overall calmness of Lawrence General's trauma staff, and it was an honor to work with them. We are excited that worldwide, viewer access to BIZARRE ER will top one billion individuals, our show's widest spread yet; the series is already airing in Norway and Bulgaria and is rated in the top ten in both countries." says Mark Downie, Executive Producer of BIZARRE ER, Head of Factual for Maverick TV.
BIZARRE ER is produced for Discovery Networks International (DNI) by Maverick TV. For DNI, Jon Sechrist is Executive Producer and for Maverick, Head of Factual Mark Downie is Executive Producer.
Dr. Wendy Sue Swanson's TEDx Talk: Why Are Patients Not Finding Their Doctors Online?
Posted in Trends, Video Posts, Wow!, tagged dr. wendy sue swanson. TEDx talk, Forum for Healthcare Strategists, healthcare marketing summit 2013 #hcms13, linkedin, national healthcare marketing strategies summit, physician video, wendy sue swanson on April 15, 2013 | Leave a Comment »
Last week someone Tweeted a link to Dr. Wendy Sue Swanson's TEDx Talk: "Why are patients not finding their doctors online?" I've know Dr. Swanson for a few years now and share her vision for a better way for patients and clinicians to interact. As she said in her talk: "Our job in health, and our job as patients, and our job as clinicians and care givers is to not react, but to anticipate where we're going. To meet people where they really are." Yes, we need to meet people where they really are! The idea is so simple, but this has not been the practice in healthcare in America. As you know, a good percentage of the people we need to reach are on the Internet, on social media, and seeking health information online. These are the spaces clinicians need to occupy. If you're a marketer, Dr. Swanson's words should resonate. Good marketing is about finding ways to have your marketing meet consumers within the context of their lives. It is about finding those intersections and then communicating in a manner that starts a conversation. This is the idea of marketing "with" rather than "at" your audience. And I love her emphasis on using social media to listen and to learn. We can all learn from her example.
Check out Dr. Swanson's TEDx Talk in this 10 minute video. It will be time well spent.
One brief note: Dr. Swanson will be a keynote speaker at the Healthcare Marketing Strategies Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona, May 6-8, 2013. I'm pleased that I will once again have the opportunity to hear Dr. Swanson present her vision. I'm also honored to be one of the speakers at the event, produced by the Forum for Healthcare Strategists.

Healthspot: Walk-in Kiosks for Patients
Posted in Trends, tagged health spot, healthspot, linkedin, walk-in kiosk on February 20, 2013 | 6 Comments »
Could consumers using kiosks to speak remotely with physicians be the future of healthcare – or at least one affordable component? The Healthspot Station is an enclosed kiosk equipped with a teleconference system, allowing patients to speak privately with a doctor on-screen. Using equipment available in the kiosk, the patient works with the physician to remotely gather health-related data such as weight, height, temperature, and blood pressure. Healthspot claims to be "the first true integration of telehealth and primary care."
Here's how Healthspot describes its system (Source: Healthspot.net):
Visit the HealthSpot Station for a variety of primary care conditions. HealthSpot literally gives you the tools you need to get better — integrated medical equipment and board certified doctors make your neighborhood HealthSpot Station the one-stop option for great care. And online follow-up care ensures that the end of your appointment is only the beginning of better health.
"When you use HealthSpot, you can:
- Schedule an appointment online or simply drop by your nearest HealthSpot Station for a visit any time you need care
- Track your medical history with secure electronic records through our website
- Get a prescription at any convenient HealthSpot Station location and review medication instructions online
- Sign up for online access to wellness information and follow-up care reminders."

Microsoft is continuing its Windows 7 marketing push with a recommendation that all customers examine desktop virtualization before moving users to the new operating system.
The future for IT lies in automating as much as possible of the infrastructure, allowing users to self-provision applications, all in a mixture of virtualized private and public clouds, according to VMware's CEO Paul Maritz.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Sword and Laser is the podcast from Tom Merritt and Veronica Belmont that incorporates Tom's love of Scifi and Veronica's love of Fantasy, along with a popular book club, to promote genre fiction to readers of all ages and tastes. It's a great show and you should check it out either in audio or video. Your choice. But now they're doing something different, something that bridges their podcast with their love of fiction – The Sword and Laser Anthology.

I have a meeting next week with them, does anyone know what to expect that first "Tour/Meeting" day? How long does it usually take, the advisor said about 2 hours?....for a tour? Any information would be excellent!
How often do the pre-reqs start?
How often do the RN programs start?
Thanks! :heartbeat
- 0Jul 11, '11 by CorawhitHi i have applied to the LPN program at the Virginia Beach campus and i had a few questions!? Can anyone tell me what to expect at orientation ex: will i be getting books and scrubs at orientation? Should i bring a backpack to put my books in? Also what should i prepare my self for in the first week? I am doing the day classes! And one more thing where do they do their clinical!? Thank you i start the August cycle and i am so excited!!!
- 0Jul 14, '11 by prayerngraceHi everyone!
So....the May 2011 RN start date class only got a Week & a half notice that they were accepted into program.
Now I'm interested to see how far in advance they are notifying for the August 2011 RN start date. This just concerns me since it is customary to give your job AT LEAST 2 weeks notice if you are starting program for Days.
Gook luck to everyone applying for the AUG '11 start date! Keep us updated...:heartbeat

CrossFit Epidemic's trainers encourage clients to work toward their fitness goals by hosting vigorous workouts that accommodate almost all fitness levels. They lead participants through an ever-rotating tapestry of strength-building exercises and cardio work that culls elements from weightlifting, gymnastics, and metabolic conditioning, ensuring a whole-body workout that bolsters stamina while building muscle mass over time. Although the instructors let attendees control the intensity of each workout, they also keep class sizes small so that they can monitor each student?s technique and Jack LaLanne impersonation, as well as offer personalized feedback.
Back In Action founder Robert D. McLaughlin, D.C. and his team take an alternative approach to health and wellness. Rather than just treating ailments when they occur, they much rather keep bodies healthy to avoid illness all together. After they help relieve chronic pain with traditional chiropractic services and restorative exercises, they recommend that clients come back for occasional adjustments to prevent physical issues before they occur. Clients can also supplement chiropractic treatments with an array of stress-taming massages including Swedish, hot stone, and deep tissue. Back In Action also presents opportunities for clients to stay in shape with a full schedule of yoga, karate, and TRX-training classes.
Inside the infrared-heated studio of Lotus Loft, groups gather seven days a week to bend, stretch, and sweat. It's here that they hone in on the integral mind-body connection that is so unique to the practice of yoga. Though not all the classes are heated, many incorporate warmth to help loosen muscles and increase blood-flow, helping participants to maximize their yoga poses and achieve a highly advanced glow. The studio, which is dedicated to maintaining an environmentally green facility, also plays host to Pilates, Pilates barre, and fitness classes in addition to yoga sessions.
Hard Exercise Works helps clients improve their physical health with intense total-body workout regimens for all fitness levels and sage nutrition advice within a supportive fitness community. Dedicated coaches push attendees to reach their goals in classes that accommodate up to 50 students, ensuring pupils' safety by demonstrating proper technique. Each workout consists of an ever-changing sequence of intense exercises, intended to improve strength and stamina over a five-week period. In addition to a vigorous fitness regimen, the gym's nutrition philosophy promotes well-being outside of class sessions by either prescribing a five-week diet for students or teaching them how to photosynthesize their own food.
Stuart CrossFit designs classes that are unusual and fun, challenging students to flip tires and pull heavy sleds. Certified instructor Gina Galiano, a lifelong fitness enthusiast, found herself floundering as workouts became boring and tedious. A manifestation of the antidote she discovered, today Gina leads what she calls "eclectic" boot-camp sessions that change from week to week. By keeping the workouts fresh, she hopes to prevent participants from becoming bored and dangerously pretending their dumbbells are hand puppets. Based in cardio and strength training, Gina's 45- to 60-minute workouts eschew fitness-machine doldrums for weight work and exercises that elevate heart rates.
Waves tumbling across sand is one of the most relaxing sounds. It is appropriate, then, given the name of her studio, that instructor Sue Wattenbarger has a soothing voice that doesn't disturb the sense of calm in a room full of yogis. She calls on that calm demeanor, along with more than 200 hours of training, to guide students through restorative yoga classes. Sue specializes in lymphatic classes that help circulate fluids in the body and strengthen the immune system. The staff there is also experience with guided relaxation massage and yin yoga, which uses longer poses to increase mobility in the joints or make hiding in the National Mannequin Museum all day easier.

Window Title not showing name of file [Solved]
I seem to be having an issue with the title not being updated to the name of the file, here's the code, I've gotten, I've matched it up with the example online, but still doesn't appear on the title bar.
bool TextEditor::save() {} codes below;
- bool TextEditor::save()
- {
- if (curFile.isEmpty()){
- return saveAs();
- } else {
- return saveFile(curFile);

- bool TextEditor::saveFile(const QString &fileName)
- {
- QFile file(fileName);
- QMessageBox::warning(this, tr("Error"), tr("Error, cannot write file %1:\n%2.")
- .arg(fileName)
- .arg(file.errorString()));

- QTextStream out(&file);
- QApplication::setOverrideCursor(Qt::WaitCursor);
- out << textEdit->toPlainText();
- QApplication::restoreOverrideCursor();
- setCurrentFile(fileName);
- statusBar()->showMessage(tr("File saved."), 2000);
- return true;
- }
void TextEditor::setCurrentFile(const QString &fileName) { } codes below;
Can anybody see what I did wrong? =/.
6 replies
perhaps you should use
- setWindowFilePath(fileName);
instead of
- setWindowFilePath(shownName);
Did you set a custom window title?
Oooooooooooh, maybe that's my problem there, thanks, checking as I'm writing this response. It iddn 't work, I did have it as setWindowFilePath(fileName); changed it to setWindowFilePath(shownName); same results, not giving file name in the title.
And yes, I did
I did:
- setWindowTitle(tr("Text Editor -- Edit Text Files & Sources"));
IF that is what you're referring to?
Oh, and here's an error message I'm getting, I'm running KDE, so it's something X Related I Think:
- kfilemodule(5856) KSambaSharePrivate::findSmbConf: KSambaShare: Could not find smb.conf!
- X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
- Major opcode: 20 (X_GetProperty)
- Resource id: 0x6400aaf
- X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
- Major opcode: 20 (X_GetProperty)
- Resource id: 0x6406b4a
when I click the save Menu Item.
The docs of QWidget::setWindowFilePath() [doc.qt.nokia.com] states it clearly:
If the window title is set at any point, then the window title takes precedence and will be shown instead of the file path string.
QWidget::setWindowFilePath() [doc.qt.nokia.com] states it clearly:The docs of
If the window title is set at any point, then the window title takes precedence and will be shown instead of the file path string.
THanks, another thing I noticed, setWindowFilePath only makes sense in Windows, I have to use QFileInfo.
Thanks for the replies, it was due to a custom window title, I took that out, and put
- Editor.setApplicationName("Text Editor");
Text Editor doesn't space in the Title Bar, can't figure out a workaround, but it's okay, now it's working, =).. And put Solved after the subject line, =). Am not sure how I would have reffered to my custom window title in codes, using it, but that's okay too.

Research Topics
Genomes and Genes
Principal Investigator: Edward Leiter
Affiliation: The Jackson Laboratory
Country: USA
Abstract: The long term goal of this project is identification of the chromosomal locations and functions of genes controlling diabetes pathogenesis in NOD/Lt mice. Insulin dependent diabetes in NOD/Lt mice is under polygenic control and reflects development of a dysregulated immune system in which autoreactive T cells are neither deleted intrathymically nor suppressed peripherally. Genes within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are important components of the genetic susceptibility; however, non-MHC susceptibility genes interact with the diabetogenic MHC loci to initiate diabetes pathogenesis. Genetic analysis will be centered on NOR/Lt, a NOD- related, diabetes-free stock. This stock contains NOD alleles at MHC and most other non-MHC loci typed, but contains segments of 4 chromosomes derived from the C57BL/KsJ strain. Diabetes resistance in the NOR stock is accompanied by a reconstituted syngeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction (SMLR), a peripheral T cell response absent in NOD/Lt. Thus, presence or absence of SMLR activity serves as a valuable immunophenotypic marker to segregate analysis the C57BL/KsJ genes in NOR/Lt abrogating diabetes pathogenesis and relate them to immunophenotypic markers. This will be accomplished by development of NOD stocks congenic for chromosomal segments carrying diabetes resistance alleles from NOR. The second aim is to analyze by genetic segregation how pathogenesis-predisposing MHC haplotypes interact with diabetogenic non-MHC genes (defined in the first aim) to mediate pathogenesis via perturbation of immunoregulatory systems. The third aim is to develop monoclonal antibodies to permit characterization of Mrt-6, a mouse gene we mapped to Chr 7 and homologous to RT6 in the rat. RT6 is a T cell surface differentiation antigen defined in rats; a subset of RT6+ T cells possess immunoregulatory function since their depletion elicits diabetes in heretofore resistant rats. Northern blot analysis reveals lower Mrt-6 RNA expression in NOD compared to diabetes-resistant mice, indicating that Mrt-6 may also serve as a marker for immunoregulatory subsets in the NOD mouse. The fourth aim is to investigate the potential pathogenic significance of pancreatic beta cell expression of an endogenous ecoptropic proviral gene, Emy-30, located on Chr 11 of NOD and absent in the diabetes resistant NOR stock. We will establish the molecular basis for differential expression of this endogenous retrovirus in NOD beta cells versus beta cells from related but diabetes-resistant stocks. Results from these proposed studies will guide geneticists in their search for non-MHC linked diabetogenic susceptibility genes in humans and enhance understanding of their interactions with diabetogenic MHC genes.
