Mobilizing Your Line of Business Systems : Introducing The Enterprise Mobile Backend As A Service
After a brief hiatus, I am super happy to announce our next Tellago Technology Update. This time we will be focusing on one of my favorite topics: enterprise mobility. Here is a quick summary:
Upcoming Speaking Engagements
This summer, I took a brief break from speaking engagements to focus on shipping our new software in Tellago Studios and not stress my already hectic travel schedule. However, I've accepted a few invites to speak at different conferences during the fall and winter. Here is a brief list of the ones that are already confirmed:
Software Architect Conference (London) http://www.software-architect.co.uk
- NodeJS for the .Net Developer
- I am a .NET developer but I have an iPhone and an Android
Oredev (Malmö, Sweden): http://oredev.org/

Cloud Computing Expo (Santa Clara, CA) http://cloudcomputingexpo.com/
- Introducing the Enterprise Mobile Platform as a Service
Cloud & Virtualization Live (Orlando, FL): http://virtlive360.com/Events/2012/Home.aspx
- Using Windows Azure to Build the Next Generation of Mobile Applications
- Windows Azure in the Real World: From Idea to Production in a Few Months
I plan to add a few more events to the list in the next few weeks. If you are attending any of these conferences feel free to contact me via this blog so that we can sync up.
Tellago Technology Update: WINDOWS AZURE, GOOGLE, AMAZON, VMWARE….? A PRACTICAL LOOK AT CLOUD COMPUTING PLATFORMS FROM AN ENTERPRISE DEVELOPER PERSPECTIVE
Today at 2pm I will be hosting our monthly Tellago Technology Update. This time we are going to take an in-depth look at cloud computing platforms from an enterprise developer perspective.
Something around these lines :
Is your organization embarking on cloud computing initiatives? Struggling to select the right technology within the large variety of cloud computing platforms such as Windows Azure, Amazon AWS, Google App Engine, VMWare Cloud Foundry? Wondering how to leverage your existing investment in .NET technologies on new cloud computing applications? You should attend this webinar! This session will explore some of the most popular cloud computing platforms in the current market from an enterprise development perspective. The session will dive deeply into those platforms by focusing on the different capabilities such as databases, storage, computing fabric, development environments, security among others elements necessary to build enterprise applications that leverage the cloud. We will emphasize on how to leverage your existing investment in .NET technologies to efficiently adopt some of these cloud platforms. In addition to technical capabilities, we will highlight aspects such as price models, development skill sets, roadmaps and other elements that should be considered when embarking on cloud computing initiatives.
If you are interested on cloud computing subjects related to enterprise solutions I certainly hope you can join me for this discussion. You can register here….
Teched 2011 Slides
I know, I know….It's been almost 2 weeks since Teched and I still haven't posted the slide decks of my sessions :( I've been super busy with some exciting development on both Tellago and Tellago Studios but I finally got to it :)
Speaking at Teched US 2011
Last week I presented two sessions at Microsoft Teched USA. This year my sessions were focus on Real World Windows Workflow Foundation and WCF Patterns.
Do I like challenges or what? ;)
Well, both sessions received were jammed packed and received an amazing feedback from developers using these technologies in real solutions. As a speaker, I always like interacting with the audience so needless to say I had a blast on both presentations. The videos for my sessions are now online at http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/TechEd/NorthAmerica/2011/MID402 and I will be posting the demos soon.
Part of the fun of starting a company is that I don't find myself alone at conferences anymore ;). This year, Tellago's Gustavo Machado , Suresh Girirajan and my business partner Elizabeth Redding also attended the event and try to, of course, heckle the way through my sessions ;)
Speaking at the 4th International SOA Symposium
This week I am speaking at the 4th international SOA Symposium in Brasilia, Brazil. The topic?, take a guess… SO-Aware of course! Tomorrow I will be doing a session about agile SOA Governance that will illustrate on a lot of the principles SO-Aware is built upon as well as a lot of the experiences we have gathered in our real world implementations. Thursday I will be doing a session about RESTful Services patterns and I am scheduled to participate in a SOA Governance panel with some luminaries of SOA world. I am very much looking forward to a great conference and to have some great debates about service orientation.
Speaking at VSLive Las Vegas
SO-Aware at the Atlanta Connected Systems User Group
Today my colleague Don Demsak will be presenting a session about WCF management, testing and governance using SO-Aware and the SO-Aware Test Workbench at the Connected Systems User Group in Atlanta. Don is a very engaging speaker and has prepared some very cool demos based on lessons of real world WCF solutions. If you are in the ATL area and interested in WCF, AppFabric, BizTalk you should definitely swing by Don's session. Don't forget to heckle him a bit (you can blame it for it ;) )
We are hiring (take a minute to read this, is not another BS talk ;) )
I really wanted to wait until our new website was out to blog about this but I hope you can put up with the ugly website for a few more days J.
Tellago keeps growing and, after a quick break at the beginning of the year, we are back in hiring mode J. We are currently expanding our teams in the United States and Argentina and have various positions open in the following categories.
- .NET developers: If you are an exceptional .NET programmer with a passion for creating great software solutions working on great teams we want to hear from you! Don't be afraid if you are not skillful with server-side technologies such as BizTalk or SharePoint, you will have the opportunity of learning those.
- BizTalk architects: Would you like to team up with some of the top BizTalk-WCF architects in the world? As part of our SOA practice, we have several open positions for BizTalk architects in both the United States and Argentina.
- SharePoint architects: Our SharePoint practice is growing aggressively and expanding into hot areas such as business intelligence or enterprise search. Currently, we have several positions open for SharePoint architects in both the United States and Argentina
- Program managers (agile coaches): Tellago is innovating in agile techniques for distributed teams. We are currently looking for program managers who have a passion for agile methodologies and who are crazy and dynamic (in that order) enough to work with us.
Why work with us (not for us)?
With so many Microsoft partners you have to rightfully question what in the world makes Tellago different. Here is a first shot?
- Do things different at a bigger scale: At Tellago, we are not interested on building another average consultancy floated with unoriginal ideas. We are really trying to do things differently by building a team that can innovate while still delivering great solutions and always do the right thing by the customer.
- Work on the latest technologies: With us you are always going to be playing with the latest releases of Microsoft and several open source technologies even before they hit the market.
- Work for a company that values talent, team work and passion: If you have the talent and are passionate about building great software then you are guarantee to grow as we grow.
- Be challenged: Learn, learn, learn. With us, you are guaranteed to be challenged every day to improve your technical skillset and to innovate in the solutions you deliver for our customers.
- Build stuff that matters: At Tellago we are spending a lot of time focusing on technologies that are changing the world even though if we are not using some of those technologies in our current projects.
- Team up with the best: Join a team that already includes technology thought leaders such as Pablo Cibraro, Chris Love, Dwight Goins, Don Demsak and others.
- Contribute to Tellago Studios: While you work at Tellago, you will have the opportunity to collaborate on the Tellago Studios products as well to get involved in the future roadmaps.
- Contribute to open source: We want you to spend time contributing to open source initiatives. Check out Tellago Dev Labs.
- Build up your career: We want you to use Tellago to make your career better. We will encourage you to complement your daily work in projects with community activities such as writing, blogging or speaking at several conferences or user groups.
- Make us better: We are far from being a perfect company, but we try really hard to improve every day. We want you to bring your passion to this company and help us grow, succeed and sometimes fail together.
Of course, chances are that you might have heard similar pitches before so I will let some of our results in 2010 speak for themselves http://weblogs.asp.net/gsusx/archive/2010/12/28/tellago-amp-amp-tellago-studios-2010.aspx.
If you are interested in our current positions please email me at jesus dot rodriguez at tellago dot com. If you are interested to join our team in Argentina, you can reach out to Pablo Cibraro at pablo dot cibraro at tellago dot com.
WE DO NOT CARE IF YOU DON'T HAVE A GREAT RESUME!!!!!! We care about your talent and passion.

I'm going to my favorite beach tomorrow that has those pretty purple flowered bushes that I like. If I were to use the pruning shears that happen to be in my beach bag to "borrow" a few sprigs, how would I best go about establishing them a new plants? In other words, what's my best chance at getting them to sprout roots? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by greenfreak Z7 NY (My Page) on Fri, Jul 2, 04 at 7:59
The only thing I ever really propogated from cuttings was Coleus and they're notoriously easy to root. Do you have rooting hormone? I use Rootone for my orchids from time to time, it's pretty good. Besides making a fresh cut just before you're ready to put it in water or dirt to root at home, dip it in water, and then dip it in the hormone so it sticks. I'd be interested in hearing any other good suggestions because I just found out that rooting rose cuttings isn't as hard as I thought it was. I might try the same soon enough. |
- Posted by Rosemarino 6/Massachusetts (My Page) on Fri, Jul 2, 04 at 13:51
Are the purple flowering bushes Rugosa roses? I call em beach roses, because that's where you find them. If they are, they're tough to root from cuttings, but they sucker like mad. If you dig up a 12" sucker with a long root and keep it moist, it should transplant great. I have done this several times. If it's not rugosa, I don't know what to tell you!!! Rosemary |
I agree that the suckers of rosa rugosa will transplant easily. The roses will also form rose hips (fruits) soon, if they haven't already. These look like little tomatoes and you can probably grow the seeds (unless they have to pass through a bird first). The hips also make great jelly or jam. picture of hips: -Claire |

Yeah they do look to be rugosa roses. They look just like that picture on the link above. I took a cutting for comparison purposes and plan to bring it over to the nursery tomorrow and see if it is in fact a rugosa rose. It was pretty funny. I was all self conscious about having somebody see me stealing a sprig of the local flora. Then a huge bank of fog suddenly moved in and you couldn't see 5 feet in front of your face. I grabbed my clippers, took a little walk and did my work under the cover of fog. |
Claire, I think that is what I have growing in my yard probably from a bird dropping, they are green right now will they turn red? Do the birds eat them? Stella |
Lots of different types of roses have hips - they usually turn red or orange. Birds do eat them as do people. I don't know whether the birds consider rose hips a great treat or just something good to get them through the winter. My mother used to make a great jam, and one year she and my aunt turned it into a terrific pancake syrup when it didn't gel properly. -Claire |

- Posted by rudysmallfry (My Page) on Sat, Jul 10, 04 at 18:07
Okay, I cheated. I went down to the local store and bought a Rogusa Rose. I got it for dirt cheap I guess since it's the middle of summer and a bad time to be planting. I put it in a nice sunny location where it could spread out at least 6' in any direction. My question is, I put it where a dwarf spruce had died and dropped it's needles. I would think the soil is extremely acidic as a result. Do I need to amend the soil ph, or should I leave it alone since most roses like acidic soil? |
Don't worry about the needles changing the Ph of the soil. It would take 20 years of a constant coating of pine needles breaking down in one small area, to change the Ph to any great degree. |

April 24, 2005
Brandon Kawecki, 25, wiped the sweat off his face as he removed the head of his furry pink pig costume Saturday afternoon.
"It's a small discomfort to get the message out," he said as members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and other activists protested a proposed experiment of using stun guns on pigs injected with cocaine.
About 15 people holding signs reading "Pigs are loving animals not science" and "Stop Cruel Tests" stood outside Taser International's annual conference at the Scottsdale Marriott at McDowell Mountains.
A $500,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice will be paying for the experiments at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, but a company spokesman said Taser International is not involved in them.
"We're hoping to stop some of the experiments they have planned," said Leila Sleiman, 22, a PETA activist and an Arizona State University student.
She pointed out that Scottsdale-based Taser International, which sells the electrically charged stun weapons, has used dogs and pigs in past experiments even if they aren't conducting any testing now.
"You can't compare a human on drugs that's scared to a four-legged animal that's been anesthetized," she said.
Steve Tuttle, a Taser spokesman, said he is not aware of any tests conducted since the end of 2003, and he said the previous experiments followed protocol.
"It is standard for pharmaceutical companies and medical device companies to use dogs and pigs," he said.
The controversial lessthan-lethal weapons have contributed to the deaths of about 100 people in the United States and Canada, according to an Amnesty International report.

I got all of these plants over a year ago and all were just a single petal/leaf that I grew them out from. I know the darker green guy is some sort of Jade I think but I have no idea what the pretty rose like plant is nor the spikey light green guys. Any help on Id's would be great! This is tonight. |

The few that have grown considerably do look like Crassula ovata (Jade). Can't see the spiky one well enough to say. The pink rosette is Echeveria 'Perle von Nurnberg'. |
- Posted by rosemariero z11/24 So Calif (My Page) on Fri, Mar 22, 13 at 12:24
Thanks for more pix! Actually, I thought you wanted an ID on the spiky cactus! =) This one looks like xPachyveria glauca & could be named 'Little Jewel', but maybe not. Either way, it has Pachyphytum in it. |
Maybe I'm just confused or maybe your being funny, I'm not 100% The extra pix are of the spikey one. At least when compared to the other plants in this pot at least. |
- Posted by rosemariero z11/24 So Calif (My Page) on Fri, Mar 22, 13 at 17:32
Not trying to be funny, but thanks for thinking that as an option. =) There is (what looks like) a cactus in your 1st & 2nd pic. When you said "spiky", I thought of that one. I couldn't see it clearly. But then, you provided other pix of the other plant...so it became clear which spiky one you meant. :D Clear now? |
- Posted by norma_2006 10 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 24, 13 at 1:23
The largest could possible be Fred Ives, they are very close in appearance, I don't know for sure, Rose Marie I just wanted to run thie by you? Norma |
The leaf shape doesn't look right for G. 'Fred Ives,' but that's just my call. Looks like possibly E. 'Perle Von Nurnberg' to me. |
I forgot about those thimble cactus in the first two pix! Whoops. |
- Posted by rosemariero z11/24 So Calif (My Page) on Sun, Mar 24, 13 at 12:58
Norma, no need to run it by me, as I already said I believe it is Echeveria 'Perle von Nurnberg'. As Colleen pointed out, xGraptoveria 'Fred Ives' would have different shaped leaves...but...the coloring is similar. Yes, bsmith, the thimble cactus was what I thought you meant. ~Rosemarie |

Learning geometrical concepts using dynamic geometry software
Jones, K. (2001) Learning geometrical concepts using dynamic geometry software. In, Irwin, K. (ed.) Mathematics Education Research: A catalyst for change.

Dynamic geometry software promises direct manipulation of geometrical objects and relations. This paper reports aspects of a research study deigned to examine the impact of using such software on student conceptions. Analysis of the data from the study indicates that, while the use of dynamic geometry software can assist students in making progress towards more mathematical explanation (and thereby provide a foundation on which to build further notions of deductive reasoning in mathematics), the 'dynamic' nature of the software influences the form of explanation, especially in the early stages.

Does anyone have recommendations of edible plants that grow well in containers and have a low glycemic index/load?
Currently, I only have access to a 8' x 10' space in which to raise a container garden. Fortunately, I am in zone 8 and this space typically gets direct sunlight 9am-7pm (i.e., more fruit possiblities). Due to dietary restrictions, I must focus on low glycemic index (GI) or low glycemic load (GL) foods. I have been focusing on fruits, and it seems these would do best in my area (although the selection will have to be narrowed due to the small, open-air space): Blackberry
Any suggestions at all would be greatly apprecated! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Not interested in traditional veggies? In your original post, you asked for 'edible plants that grow well in containers'. Can you be more specific? |
- Posted by greentiger87 none (My Page) on Wed, Sep 12, 12 at 11:13
Yeah, I'm kind of confused too. There are lots of veggies and herbs that would be great, but are you only interested in fruit? Also, can I ask if you're diabetic? |

BHUBANESWAR: The Odisha State Housing Board is planning to come up with at least four mega housing projects in the 2012-13 financial year. The board is planning to develop an integrated housing complex having 300 dwelling units near the upcoming All India Institute of Medical Sciences in April.
The project, Ranasinghpur II, will come up over 4.5 acre land near OSHB's ongoing project Ranasinghpur I. "There will be houses for all category of customers (high income group, middle income group and low income group) in the project," said OSHB secretary B Bahinipati. OSHB is yet to get Bhubaneswar Development Authority's (BDA) approval for the Ranasinghpur II project plan.
Notably, in the same area OSHB and private developer Vipul have floated a premium project, 'Vipul Greens,' with housing units in the range of Rs 80 lakh to Rs 1.30 crore. The housing board has also partnered with another developer for a nine-acre project at Suang village in the same locality.
In the next fiscal, OSHB will also come up with a housing project in Nayagarh. "Plans are being prepared for the project over 12 acres in Nayagarh," Bahinipati said. The board will also construct another group housing project at Bidanasi in Cuttack. "There may be two phase constructions in the 10 acres," the OSHB secretary said. The board will also soon float tenders for a PPP project over 6.5 acre area in Angul soon, Bahinipati said.

Office of Juvenile Services
Cases involving juvenile defendants in New Jersey have special rules and challenges, such as the proceedings typically being closed to the public. To better coordinate juvenile representation throughout the state, the Office of Juvenile Services oversees the planning, policy and training related to those cases. A study commissioned in 1999 to determine what steps could be taken to help young offenders avoid further contacts with the system found the need for a stronger social-service component in the NJOPD's representation of juveniles. That has led to the use of some social workers as a complement to the work of attorneys in juvenile cases. In addition, the Office of Juvenile Services was established to coordinate further efforts aimed at improving the NJOPD's representation of juveniles. As a central information clearinghouse, the office helps juvenile attorneys statewide share valuable information and training strategies. The Office of Juvenile Services is overseen by Assistant Public Defender Lorraine Augostini. The office is headquartered in the Hughes Justice Complex in Trenton.

Form of short narrative folk song. Its distinctive style crystallized in Europe in the late Middle Ages as part of the oral tradition, and it has been preserved as a musical and literary form. The oral form has persisted as the folk ballad, and the written, literary ballad evolved from the oral tradition. The folk ballad typically tells a compact tale with deliberate starkness, using devices such as repetition to heighten effects. The modern literary ballad (e.g., those by W.H. Auden, Bertolt Brecht, and Elizabeth Bishop) recalls in its rhythmic and narrative elements the traditions of folk balladry.

White Sunday
Helmet: check. Goggles: check. Ski pants that still fit (phew): check. Socks without holes: check. Skis, poles, boots: check. Gloves, two left ones: whoops. Wish I had caught that while I was still at home. But, hey, it's my first day of the season. Something had to give!
Thus outfitted, geared-up and downright excited, on Sunday morning I turned into the lower parking area at River Run, hungrily eyeing the hill. The first day of ski season is a homecoming for me. I gave a big wave to Bill, my favorite parking shuttle driver. He smiled, giving me thumbs up. At the base of the hill, I caught up with the boys in the tune shop and rental desk, people I haven't seen since closing day last April. Dan at the Brass Ranch not only recommended the right gadget allowing me answer my phone without fumbling around (don't worry, I don't chat on the phone on the lift), he installed it, too. Smiles all around.
More smiles as the ticket taker at the base of the River Run chair, a new face this year, scanned my pass. Day one was officially underway! A warm-up run led me down Upper College to Mid River and back to the lift. My thoughts on these groomers alternated between "Whee!" and "Ow, my knees!" and "Yikes! I'm not sure I remember how to do this," but I made it all the same. The next run, down Upper Warm Springs to I-80 was smoother and more relaxing and by the time I made it to the soft bumps (yes, bumps, in November!) on Ridge, I was getting my groove back.
Early season skiing is gratifying. I always appreciate, with my sore knees and tired muscles (I knew I should have signed up for one of those pre-season boot camps), that every run on our huge, challenging mountain isn't available on Day One. At first, just enough slopes are open to remember the joy of skiing, the basics of making pretty turns and to provide a real-life boot camp. Nothing trains your legs for skiing like skiing. With each snowfall and Sun Valley's amazing snow making, runs seem to open in direct correlation to what my legs can handle.
Scanning that sweeping 360-degree vista atop Bald Mountain, there is a lot to look forward to. Seattle Ridge is already drenched in white and striped with corduroy. Also looking ahead-of-the-usual-curve-snow-wise are Baldy's storied bowls. From the perspective of the lift, coverage looked great.
By all accounts, the opening days on Baldy were excellent. Visitors I chatted with couldn't have been happier. Locals came out in force with their families. And from here, it only gets better and better. Today looks like a great day to ski – time to run!

The vertical tail extended about as high as the wing extended sideways, so the vertical tail would contribute a large dihedral effect; dihedral tended to restore the fighter to straight-and-level flight. To moderate the overall dihedral, the wings had 10 degrees of negative dihedral. They drooped a little.
The Starfighter had a "flying tail"—the entire horizontal surface moved—placed high above the engine exhaust, so it could be made of aluminum instead of heat-resistant but heavier stainless steel. Even at Mach 1.5 the flying tail was very effective, allowing the pilot to pull five Gs in a turn at 35,000 feet.
Johnson's fighter never got a chance to tangle with any MiGs, but if it had, it would have left them in its contrails.
The Home Front
When I was selected for test pilot school at Edwards Air Force Base, my wife Jan was delighted. But she was concerned about the number of pilots killed during my previous assignment and wondered if test flying would be even more dangerous.
Our second child was expected to be born about two months into my year of test pilot training. We already had a four-year-old son, and Jan did not want her children to grow up without a father. Asked about the risk, I explained that I had had the best training in the world, the test aircraft were maintained to a higher level, and that we flew during the daytime and in clear weather. I wasn't sure how much of that was accurate, but she seemed to accept my explanation.
All but three of the pilots in our class were married, and most had children, so Jan and I weren't the only couple having such discussions. The school may have known this: They planned an open house—an opportunity for the families to visit the school.
On the appointed day, we gathered in the auditorium for Colonel Charles Yeager to make his entrance. When he arrived, he had on rows of ribbons for combat in World War II and for flight test accomplishments. But he also wore a large white bandage around his neck, and his left arm was in a sling. If the premier test pilot in the Air Force was this banged up, it seemed clear to Jan that flight test could be a very dangerous business.
The tour of the hangar held another surprise. Yeager was bandaged up because he'd recently punched out of an NF-104, the wreckage of which was spread out on the hangar floor for an investigation. No piece of his crashed aircraft was larger than a refrigerator, and everything was covered in gray ash. The sight of wreckage was familiar to me, but most civilians, and certainly Jan, had never viewed such a shocking sight.
Jan's concerns would prove to be well founded. Over the next 25 years, 32 test pilots—friends of mine—would be killed in aircraft.

This coming Sunday (September 15), I will be starting a 9-week sermon series on the book of Revelation. I am so excited about preaching this series because I think it has the potential to have a huge impact on our congregation. And it's not because of anything I will do; it's because the message of Revelation is one of the most encouraging, challenging, vision-producing books in the Bible. Alameda needs to reimagine what it looks like for us to follow Jesus in our time, and Revelation will help us do just that.
I want you to be totally invested in this series of sermons so I am publishing the series outline and the resources that have been helpful to me in the development of this series. I hope you will read along in Revelation so that your heart and mind will be prepared to hear the messages in this series. (Reminder: I did a 7-week series on Revelation 2-3 called "Dear Church" earlier this year, so I won't be covering those chapters in this series. Go to the sermon link on this website to view those past sermons.)
September 15 - "What is This?" (Revelation 1:1-3)
September 22 - "The Throne Above All Thrones" (Revelation 4)
September 29 - "The Slaughtered Lamb" (Revelation 5)
October 6 - "The Ultimate Failure of Evil" (Revelation 6-11)
October 13 - "666" (Revelation 12-13)
October 20 - "The War to End All Wars" (Revelation 14-20)
October 27 - "Heaven on Earth" (Revelation 21)

I personnaly don't have anything against HTML messages, as long as they're used wisely. By wisely, I mean that they should not be the default format to send to everybody. The default should be kept as plain text, and if the sender really wants to "nicely" format her message, then she has to check the "HTML message" box. To me, using HTML messages to a mailing list is like using MS Word to send a (textual) joke, or MS PowerPoint to send a (static) picture. You never know if the receiver will be able to read it or not, and in many cases the intent of the formating is lost, especially with the heterogenous crowd of mail clients out there. So let's keep HTML messages for "family" or "corporate" communication, and use text-only format for messages destinated to unknown mail readers. This is not "emotional", nor "personal", it's just a matter of common sense. To be convinced, just try to google for "reasons why html in email is bad".

Whether you're a girl, a college student working on a community service project, a parent ready for an outdoor adventure with your daughter's troop, or someone who wants to make a difference in girls' lives, there's something for you in Girl Scouts. There are lots of ways to join in the fun… contact us and we'll show
you how!
Girl Scouts is all about Leadership
Girl Scouts is, as it always has been, the organization best positioned to offer girls the tools they need to be successful leaders now and throughout their lives. As Girl Scouting approaches its 100th anniversary, the Movement is using its expertise and input from girls to create a completely new approach for what girls do in Girl Scouting, how they do it, and how they will benefit.
Girls say a leader is defined not only by the qualities and skills one has, but also by how those qualities and skills are used to make a difference in the world. The New Girl Scout Leadership Experience identifies three "keys" to leadership – Discover: Girls understand themselves and their values and use their knowledge and skills to explore the world. Connect: Girls care about, inspire and team up with others locally and globally. Take Action: Girls act to make the world a better place.
When Discover, Connect and Take Action activities are girl led and involve learning by doing and cooperative learning, girls achieve the desired and expected short-term leadership outcomes, ultimately resulting in Girl Scouting achieving its mission.
The 15 Outcomes of the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience
- Girls develop a strong sense of self.
- Girls develop positive values.
- Girls gain practical life skills.
- Girls seek challenges in the world.
- Girls develop critical thinking.
- Girls develop healthy relationships.
- Girls promote cooperation and team building.
- Girls can resolve conflicts.
- Girls advance diversity in a multicultural world.
- Girls feel connected to their communities, locally and globally.
Take Action
- Girls can identify community needs.
- Girls are resourceful problem solvers.
- Girls advocate for themselves and others, locally and globally.
- Girls educate and inspire others to act.
- Girls feel empowered to make a difference in the world.

My boyfriend and I went to NYC for 2 nights right before the New Year's Eve festivities began. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the rooms were very clean and fairly spacious (for a NY hotel), and the location was perfect! We were just a few walking blocks from Times Square, Rockefeller Center, shopping on 5th, and so much more! We would definitely stay at this hotel again.

New York life is not spending time in your hotel room - if you are looking for great location and simple comfort with affordable prices you make the Manhattan choice. Review by: Tara MizDate stayed November 23, 2011 |

Hotel was nice. It would have been great to have a chair to sit in but we got by just fine. Staff was very polite and helpful. We would stay there again. My friends called the hotel and got a lower rate than we got through Orbitz and their room was exactly like ours. We stayed there one year ago in April and the prices have increased dramatically. We were sightseeing most of the time so the room was used mainly for showering and sleeping. Review by: frogmoreDate stayed October 29, 2011 |

you need to spend a lot of time wait the elevator to get up to your room and to get down, some times it take 5 minutes to get in (up & down). air condition is very noisily, bathroom courtain very damaged, room door to heavy to entrance and to exit. be careful if you try to bought theatre tickets with the old lady that is downstairs, she charges you more than a half in price per ticket for her comission.

The only thing this hotel had going for it was the location and the fact that there was a pool (which closed too early). Our room was not ready when we arrived 1 hour past the checkin time (arrived at 4pm). Once in the room, it was apparent that the tub was still dirty. I went and purchased a cleaner at a local store and cleaned it myself. The phones would not allow me to call down for cleaning service as they did not work. The air conditioner was not working. We set it all the way down to 68 and the coolest it got was 77 degrees. We purchased some aluminum foil and out ice in it from the vending machines to cool off the room. We asked 3 times for repair service and no one came during our 4 days there. The phones did not work when trying to call in-house services of any kind. If we needed something, we had to go down to the lobby and ask for it. Most of the time, it didn't happen. The TV service for purchasing movies in your room did not work. We could get local TV only in our room. There was no microwave or fridge. Luckily the internet connection did work- but was more expensive than other hotel ($14.95 per day). One of the elevators broke while we were there and security had to usher lines of people through the remaining 2 elevators. The pool was actually OK. The gym OK- but they did not have towels there and it was very hot in there. No one would fix the phone or TV either. Didn't bother eating in their restuarant. Will not stay here again. My kid did enjoy the pool and patio and it was convenient to get to the subway and attractions. Review by: SandraciniDate stayed July 26, 2011 |

The location of the hotel is great. It's in walking distants of everything you want to see. Close to the theater district and Central Park. I have to mention the staff at the front desk was helpful and courtesy. So for the money this hotel is great and the price was good for a midtown hotel. Also, the swimming pool is amazing and also the sundeck is a nice touch. Review by: James Bond Super SpyDate stayed June 20, 2011 |

Very old hotel. Bathroom very old and in desperate need of repair. No wifi in rooms only available in the lobby. No bell person(s) when we checked in had to bring luggage up ourselves. Rooms were not sound proofed and could hear everything happening in the hallway. My brother stayed in room near elevator and could hear it all night long. Elevator on our floor also had lights missing. Would not recommend staying in the hotel and would not stay here again. Review by: Mary NguyenDate stayed March 17, 2010 |

Maria Legio
Maria Legio
Independent African church influenced by Roman Catholicism. It originated in Kenya in 1963 when two Catholics of the Luo group, Simeon Ondeto and Gaundencia Aoko, claimed to have undergone prophetic experiences. The church, which offers healing by prayer and exorcism of evil spirits, adds features of Pentecostalism to Catholic worship and hierarchy. In its first year it gained about 90,000 adherents, but membership had dropped to 50,000 by the end of the decade. It rejects Western and traditional medicines, alcohol, tobacco, and dancing but accepts polygamy and is strongly nationalistic.

With the score 4-1 in favour of Canada, Mexico outfielder Karim Garcia tried to make it just a two run deficit, but failed to do so after bowling over Canada catcher Chris Robinson.
The play was a big moment in what has to be considered a must win for both clubs, as Garcia never looked to be tagged on the play, nor did he ever touch home plate.
Garcia was replaced in the field the next inning after being injured on this play.

For those of you who are in fulfilling happy relationships, what would you say is the secret to your success?
I was previously married to a loser for 20 yrs. Divorced him and then 3 years ago married the love of my life. We celebrated our 3rd this past New Years Eve. We are best friends first and formost. He now works at the same location that I do (different section/job), we carpool every day, we fish together, ride motorcycles, and he supports my gardening addiction :-). Is there anyone else out there who has been HAPPILY married an extended length of time that can share thier secrets? How did you make your marraige work? |

Total honesty and commitment. 100% from each person. Understanding and willingness to compromise. Going on 10 years strong. |
- Posted by good36 (email@example.com) on Fri, Jan 13, 06 at 14:37
We just celebrated 21 years in September. I think the key to a long marraige is compromise. Honesty is a must too. You are never going to see eye to eye on everything. I knew what I wanted in a man when I married him. He is a wonderful father, husband and provider. judy |
That is what I htought wehn I married my husband. When I met him we became friends, we laughed together, talked about things. I told him that honesty was very important to me. But I am finding that he is not honest with me in many ways. But I do not know how to confront him with it. I went through this before, and I know what the outcome will be. He will get angry and defencive. What he does not seem to understnad that when I find that he has not been honest with me I withdraw from him. I do not feel the same now. Having sex with him is hard cause I feel that the dishonesty is putting a wedge between us and he does not even know it. Like right now I took off from work because I did not feel good, so he thinks I am at work. He gets off at 4:30, and it is now almost 7:00. Where is he. I see where he calls someone before he leaves work. I have access to the phone records since I pay them. I found out that he has a porn on his computor which I do not mind but when he hides it I feel that he is lieing to me. Which he is cause he always told me that he didnt watch that stuf. What should I do? |
Love, respect, common life plans, honesty, trust, fun times together. Almost 14 years and loving every minute of it. |
The only thing you need for a happy marriage is to marry the right person. |
I forgot to add a sense of humor! |
Married 35 years, there's not an easy answer as everyone is different. For us, sharing broad goals, thinking somewhat alike, understanding there will be differences, not wanting the other to be unhappy, compromise without loss of self, sharing fears as well as successes, mainly mutual respect. We enjoy our children and grandchildren. Lynn |
17 years here. Marry a compatible person and don't sweat the small stuff. Compatible means you share common values, beliefs and goals, including money issues, religion, politics and having/raising children. Keep growing - educate yourselves, read, have hobbies (individual and shared), meet new people and cultivate friends. Treat your relationship as an adventurous journey through life together. |

We've been married 31 years- have a hard time believing it's been so long! We married in our early twenties, and never a day goes by that I don't marvel at how lucky we are to have each other. We're each others first lover, so there's no past relationships to be a problem. We are very compatable in values, socio-economic background, religon and politics. We have no major problems- financial or otherwise. We trust each other completely, and make an effort not to do anything that we know hurts or bothers the other. We will compromise if a situation arises that we both feel strongly about. We respect each other, and we both think the other is smarter than we are. We admire each others strengths, and accept each others weaknesses. |

Married almost 7 years, but together for 12 and going strong. I agree many of the above posts: Love, respect, common life plans/values, honesty, trust, fun times together, sense of humor, sharing responsibilities, willingness to discuss relationship issues when they come up, sharing fears as well as successes, treating each other as equals. I have girlfriends who complain about their husbands and have made fun of me because my DH and I are "so nice to each other." Aren't we supposed to be nice to each other? I feel like I married my best friend...so of course I will treat him like my best friend. We bicker when we are overly tired and occassionally have a heated fight (1 to 2 times a year at most?), although we don't yell. Key to fighting is to keep it on issue...don't bring in all sorts of other complaints and insults, just deal with the issue that made you/him mad. Honestly, though, I think one of the reasons our relationship is so strong is because we share a great love of the outdoors. We go on long hikes, backpacking trips, and backcountry ski days together. These times are very powerful in keeping our bond strong. Just this weekend we had an amazing day of backcountry skiing together. We were both totally high off the experience and had shared it with each other. Days like that help renew our joy of being together...My point being that having some sort of hobby that you both enjoy doing together that gets you out of the daily grind can be wonderful bonding time. It doesn't necessarily have to be in the outdoors...it could be cooking together, dancing, going to see live music, gardening, playing cards...whatever. I am also just lucky ehough to have found such an amazing partner. Peaches |
Good communication. Sense of humour on both sides. Ability to laugh at yourself. Similar standards of behaviour, similar family background. Ability to forgive. Ability to rise above the cycle of blame. Knowing that you can speak your mind without fear. Learning the right way to talk to each other when having an argument. Don't accuse, just make statements. Everyone pulling their weight and working for the good of the family. Realizing that your family is number one, always comes first. Willingness to identify problems and adjust your behaviour, by seeking advice, or reading books. Be supportive because thats what makes them happy. Tinylady....perhaps you could start a new thread for your posting, you might find it easier to get some suggestions, that way. Take care. Popi |
My husband and I are BEST friends.We actually enjoy each others company. We have fun together.Whether it's playing video games together,or goofing off at the grocery store. We make every chore or task seem like it's something fun and do it together. We have no secrets from each other. No matter how painful,we have always been honest. We always set aside time to be alone.Whether it's a quick bath together or a night on the town. We also give each other space when needed...But dont surround ourselves in "tempting situations" or around people who may be destructive to our relationship (ex girlfriends/boyfriends or overly flirtatious people) Take care of each other when sick,even if that means running out at 3am to get medicine for the other. It's the other little things that count.He brings home take out cuz he knows I'm tired. We have always comforted each other too.I cry after getting a bad haircut,and he holds me and tells me he'd love me if I was bald. We take care in our child,our plants,our animals....we nurture them,and each other. |
12 wonderful years so far... - Total trust and honesty, plus forgiveness for our imperfections. It's a lot easier to be honest when you know the other person will love you no matter what. - Common values. Our backgrounds are very different, but our core values are identical. - Putting 'Us' first, then 'You', then 'Me'. Bearing in mind always that what's best for 'Us' IS almost always what's best for me. - Making time for each other, which sometimes means the kids get a can of something for dinner so Hubby and I can have a special meal alone together. |
Thought of another one... Being supportive of each other, when dealing with the children, or child...and if one does not agree with how the other one is handling the situation...then talk about it later, not in front of the child. Being financially secure, sure helps in the stability of the relationship ! Keep in mind the "big picture", your core values, and what you are doing "it" all for...to have a happy life, only get one chance of that. Making sure each day counts, and like Coolmama says, making your times together happy and meaniful, no matter what the activity is. I am enjoying reading everyone's comments, perhaps we should publish a book from all this ! Popi |
Here are our "7 Rules to a Happy Marriage": 1. Fall in love and marry your best friend. 2. Be NICE to each other. "Please" and "Thank You" are not cuss words. 3. Have similar tastes on the big stuff - ie. money, politics, child-rearing, religion, etc. 4. Have different tastes on the small stuff (keeps it interesting) - ie. food, decorating, football teams, etc. 5. Talking through a problem instead of yelling (see #2). 6. No argument is allowed to start with "You are...". All arguments/discussions must being with "I feel..." or "I think...". 7. Only 1 person is allowed to be crazy at a time. 8. Never let a day go by without telling the other one that you love them. Even if you are mad. 9. Always pick up your own mess. 10. Never forget - it's us against the world. Everyone else is secondary. Our marriage and our spouse's wishes come before anything else. Even MIL's... |
"7. Only 1 person is allowed to be crazy at a time." Mandy g, you are full of wisdom!!! |
- Posted by bnicebkind (My Page) on Sat, Feb 3, 07 at 22:46
1. Be someone trustworthy. In ALL areas. In love, in finances, etc. 2. Cover each others back. In other words, that you both know without a shadow of a doubt, that your spouse believes in you and will stand up for you. 3. Do the small things for each other that tell each other they matter. Greet them with a big smile when they come home. Sew on a button. Bother to make dinner special. Tell each other how much you appreciate them, and that you value them (tell them what it is you value about them)! Let them know that you also appreciate what they do for the family. 4. Be willing to bite your tongue and let things slide......................................once in awhile. Extend grace where you can. 5. Be able to forgive and move on. 6. Try your best not to badmouth each others family. It only makes everyone defensive. We all have flaws. 7. Do not join into "husband bashing" with your friends or family...I see women do this all the time. It is extremely disloyal (would you like your DH sitting around with all the men you know telling them awful things about you? Then don't do it to to him!!! Besides, for those of you who indulge in this past time, keep in mind that it tells other women that things aren't so perfect between you two, and lets another woman know she may be able to squeeze in. Because she won't believe all the bad things you tell her, regardless of what she says. Why, because women think that "she can change him". 8.Be each others biggest fan. Encourage one another. Ask about each others day, and actually listen and care. 9. Do not flirt, or hang around flirts. 10. When one is exhausted, the other rallies. When one is discouraged, the other can encourage. 11. Smile... and be the kind of person that "you" would like to come home to. 12. Simply...love each other. It softens the hard edges in life. 13. LEARN TO PERSEVERE...like an athlete!!!! There will be times in marriage where you feel like running. When you wonder what in the world you were thinking when you chose this person. When you look at them some days, and are not even sure you like the person...let alone love them. Hang in there. Just hang in there, and remember that another day will come when you will feel like the luckiest person in the world to have this same person. Life can be funny that way. 14. Everyone pitch in and keep the house decent. No one wants to come home to a pigsty, and no one feels happy, let alone romantic in one. It weighs heavy on everyone in the house. 15. Believe in something bigger than you both. There are probably more but it is late, so I will call it a day. By the way, they are not necessarily in the order of importance. Just what popped into my thoughts as I was typing. |
My husband is my best friend, has been from day one (sorry mom) we have been married 13 years, we are coming up on our 16th anniversary of actually being togather (Feb. 14) most people around me are amazed by how long we have been togather and by how happy we are. Don't know if there is a secret to it, we don't go out a whole lot, most of the time we are happiest togather at home with our two kids. We both have totally different intrests and it still works, if he is fishing at my mom's lake I am horseback riding around the lake hollering at him every chance I get asking him how the fishing is going *snicker* yes he thinks I am a smart butt, but he is too, if I am out in the garden working he will try every chance he gets to soak me with the hose "accidently" and he loves to stand over my shoulder and tell me how he would do it if he was the one cooking (he just wants me to walk off so he can get a finger full of cookie dough:) lots of laughs and lots of fun, wouldn't trade a minute of it:) |
Bursting into a smile every time he walks into the room. After eight years it's still like the day we met. |

When I first got married I got the best piece of advice I've ever received as far as relationships go. It was very simple: If he wants to do something and you really have no other reason to say 'no' other than the fact you don't want him to... say yes. Let him have his own time. He'll love you all the more for it. |
We'll be married for 8 years this summer, and were together for nearly 20 years before that. We've had our rough patches, but I don't think our relationship has ever been seriously in doubt. I think that the secret, if there is one, is that we each think we're the lucky one, and we try to keep it that way. |

I love keeping my staples in glass jars to keep them fresh longer, and I have several with the metal wire around the neck and a clamp thingy in front. One them has sprung its clamp and I want to replace it but I don't know what it is called. I hate having to use the word "thingy" because it sounds immature. Besides, I'm a savvy senior (and I'm not talking high school) who is for darned sure not immature. By the way "gizmo" and "widgit" are even worse. Thanks to all. Kaye |

Google "French canning jars" --- is that what you mean? Try following the Amazon links and seeing if you can buy the parts separately. I know you can buy the rubber seals. The proper term is thingamabob. ;0 |

My favorite word when I don't know what it is, is "dofunny". It's just a word we picked up in high school in the 60s. |
It's called a jar bale or a latch. |
You can find some replacement wire bales, and the hard-to-find rubber gaskets at the link below. I just hope you can find the right size. -Grainlady |

Ha, ha! When I saw the word "staples," I had a vision of metal staples that go into a stapler and was wondering about why you felt the need to keep them fresh. |

I wasn't too sure of what they were called until I looked them up. SURPRISE! When my wife and I were married in 1972 we got a canister set with these latches. Flour, Sugar, Coffee & Tea containers. Believe it or not we still use them. You see, we have the BEST money saving plan ever devised. "Use it up, wear it out. Make it do, or do without." These canisters have yet to think about wearing out. |
Lol , I also had the thought upon seeing staples that it is for stapler thing . Anyways , hopefully you can find one . :) |
Some people have small ones like that, about the size of a spice bottle, and use them for spices. I have one with dill in it. ole joyful |
Christopher we also have a set of those jars. 4 sizes, no words on them, but they do have strawberries and green vines and leaves. Got them as a wedding gift in 1981. Scoop my coffee out of one every morning. |

If you have a bottle with the bale intact ... and a farmer/mechanic friend, take both to him/her and possibly a couple of minutes work with a set of pliers or vise grips can put your bent one back in shape. ole joyfuelled ... who's also frugal |
