I saw this Asian babe on the private channel and was amazed by her agility with the dildos and a cock. She really knows how to use those pussy toys! She does look familiar to me though so I will have to get a few friends in and watch it again. We did just that and then I remembered where I had seen her. She is the secretary from across the street!

This Asian model almost ran me down in the street with her bike! I was walking along enjoying the sites and BANG! She hit me from behind because she couldnt see where she was going! The hat she had on went down over her eyes and when she went to push it up, she hit me and we both hit the ground! I helped her up and she apologised before I sent her on her way, hoping she didn??t do it to anyone...

This is a shot of my brother??s last party. He had a couple hot Asian Models over and things got pretty rowdy as the evening went on. It was a foursome that really knows the meqning of group sex. They had some nice dildos to try out on the girls as they squirmed and giggled to get out of reach of the dildos. They had preferred the real thing! This is a bit too rich for my , I think I will turn...

I was strolling along checking out the competition from a bird??s eye view. I got thirsty and went in for a soda at one of the early opening places here. It was a nice set up, and there were three people on stage already! One hot Asian babe and two guys. She was in lingerie and they were taking it off of her for a three way on stage. Maybe we should try that out in our club!

This naughty Asian model is also a horny babe in her spare time. She likes to perform with two guys at once for double the fun and money. The audiences seem to enjoy it as well. I guess this makes up for the nights we don??t have a lot of customers. A little advertising and the whole thing turns into a circus. It is very exciting to have so many people there to watch these three get it on !

Check out these lovely Asian models! They actually live together and perform together on stageThe place is packed full when they come around even the women come to check out the show. It gets so full that we have to add extra shows! It is great for business though as long as they dont mind the extra stage time. It is too bad that they travel but it is one way to see the world!

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Adams, Siân Louise URN etd-05192012-174159 Document Title South African consumer attitudes towards domestic solar power systems Degree MBA Department Gordon Institute of Business Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title none Supervisor Keywords
- diffusion of innovation
- solar power
- consumer perceptions
Date 2012-03-08 Availability unrestricted Abstract The success of the South African policy to reduce carbon emissions and incorporate solar energy production into the national energy mix is partly dependent on the ability to persuade householders to become more energy efficient, and to encourage installation of domestic solar systems. Solar power is an innovation in South Africa and the current policy of stimulating the market with subsidies for solar water heaters is not resulting in widespread adoption. The high upfront costs have been a barrier in the past but as more suppliers offer financing options, there has been a gradual increase in purchasing but not at the rate required to save the 578 MW of electricity over the next few years.This research report takes the form of a survey of two consumer groups ("early adopters" and "early majority" adopters in South Africa, with the aim of:
• Investigating consumer attitudes towards characteristics of solar systems,
• Utilising the diffusion of Innovations theory to understand the attributes which affect the consumer decision making process, and
• Isolating the characteristics that are preventing a pragmatic "early majority" from adopting the technology.
The results show that overall, while the "early majority" demonstrate a positive perception of the environmental characteristics of solar power, its financial, operational and aesthetic characteristics are limiting adoption. Differences existing between the two groups show support for the concept of the 'chasm' between adopter categories identified by Moore. The study concludes that if consumers cannot identify the relative advantage of solar power over their current source of power supplied readily and cheaply through the national grid, it is unlikely that wide-scale adoption will follow.

Series Review
From Motherhood Moments: "The illustrations are adorable and I like that there are interactive features. I also love the bonus parent tips, since sometimes it can be hard to know what the best way to approach a child's fear is."
From Smart Apps for Kids: If you have a youngster between the ages of 0 and 4 or a special needs child, these stories may save a lot of sad faces and help instill the confidence your child needs to face the unknown.
The Brown-Eyed Boy with the Magic Eyelashes
From Second Bookshelf on the Right: It's a terrific technique to teach your kids, especially those who are timid about new experiences.
From Tracy's Nook: The pictures are great, the story is easy for a younger child to understand and to relate to. I recommend this book for anyone with younger kids, especially if those kids are shy and scare easily.
From Moms with Apps: The App features interactivity (touch, sight, & sound), parent suggestions, a relatable character and is written for children in the 0-4 year range.
Luca Lashes Learns to Brush his Teeth
From Cary Plunkett: I read this book to my son who is two and a half and it kept his attention until the end and was even repeating some phrases in the book. Now, my son still puts up a fight when it comes to brushing his teeth but one of these days he might appreciate Luca Lashes and his bravery and decide he wants to be brave too.
From Adventures of the Alpha Wife: I learned that if there are fearful things my kids are trying to overcome, all I have to do is give them a way to overcome their fears. Maybe it's blinking like Luca, or perhaps it's tapping their toes three times. My kids giggled in delight as we read the book, and loved watching as Luca overcame his fears.
From Smart Apps for Kids: Parents, teachers, and therapists who work with children that resist teeth brushing may find this book an excellent addition toopen the conversation about each child's fears. The illustrations and theme make it worth a download. On one page, the sun and moon shimmer, birds tweet and spin, hands move around a clock, and some exhaust comes out of Luca's pajama-shirt rocket.
From Just 10 More Minutes: I loved the book because it relates to the children and how they feel. It says to a child "I'm on your side", and that's important when facing scary situations. I also loved that it had a section in the back with facts for parents and resources.
From The iPhone Mom: Children can learn along with Luca Lashes as he discovers how to use a toothbrush and why. This app features interactive elements (touch, sight, and sound), parent suggestions, a relatable character and is written for children from birth to age 4.
Luca Lashes and his First Trip to the Dentist
From Dominique's Desk: I love the handy suggestions to parents at the end of the book on how to prepare the child for the dentist visit. The book is easy to read and follow for younger readers with pictures and words on alternate pages.
From Just 10 More Minutes: [LucaLashes Visits the Dentist] explains what happens to Luca while he is in the seat and that he was perfectly fine when it was all done. I thought the book was a nice addition to the first and I feel like it is a good set to own or borrow for those big moments in a child's life.
From Smart Apps for Kids: These books are a great concept and really helpful for children who are fearful about new things. Children are incredibly suggestible and this is a very gentle and positive way to introduce a new experience.
Luca Lashes and his First Haircut
From Tracy's Nook: By combining the original text and terrific artwork with features that entertain and promote reading, this eBook series appeals to beginning readers of all ages. It's never too early to fall in love with language!
From Chrissy at Good Reads: I enjoyed the illustrations, which were filled with bright, bold colors guaranteed to catch the eye of a toddler. The segment on the last page giving parents tips and tricks on how to make the first haircut special was cute and useful.
From Clarisa Kluver at Digital Storytime: I highly recommend this series for parents & educators looking for a simple way to teach kids about what to expect on big firsts, including this one that helps prepare toddlers & preschoolers for what can be a scary experience, where a stranger uses scissors to cut their hair.
From Smart Apps for Kids: Each step of the trip to the salon from putting on the apron to seeing hairs falling on the floor, is described and pictured through carefully drawn illustrations and helpful interactive elements.
Luca Lashes has his Frist Swimming Lesson
From Tracy's Nook: Swim lessons can be scary. Thatis why Luca has a special way of making things less scary. This is a great kids book. The pictures are great, the story is easy for a younger child to understand and to relate to.
From I'm a Full-Time Mummy: It is engaging and interactive and I love that we can also touch the page on the screen and the page sways according to your direction you sway it!
Luca Lashes Visits the Doctor
From A Stich in Time: If you have a nervous child on the way to the doctor this is a great read! And we all know, a calm and ready child is so much better than a fearful one!
From Tidbits from a Mom: I think this book is adorable and perfect for my son. The illustrations are wonderful! The book is short and sweet and point out parts of the visit that cause my son his anxiety, including being weighed, measured, and receiving a shot.
From Tracy's Nook: Like the other Luca books this one is a great introduction to little kids who might have some memories of going to the doctor before and are really scared of getting shots, or even just going to the doctor. Just remind the kids to blink their magic eye lashes and then they can be brave enough, just like Luca.
Luca Lashes and his Trip to the Nursing Home
From Tracy's Nook: I think that having a book like this read to them and seeing the great pictures in the book would have eased any lingering fears they might have had. Even if they might not be fearful Ithink that showing them what to expect before hand will make those visits all the more fun and way less stressful.
The ever-popular series of interactive eBooks for children, Luca Lashes, is one that has gained a lot of compliments and positive reviews from its readers. As a line of edutainment books custom-tailored to Droid devices and iPads, Luca's adventures are as heartwarming and delightful as they are beneficial to your child's development. Just read some of the kind words and reviews our previous readers have submitted to learn more about it.

Hello -
I have a pretty basic question. I am going to be putting recessed lighting into our family room, which currently has no lighting at all. Before I go buy housings and trim, however, I was wondering if someone could tell me whether or not I really need "slope" hardware. The room is 14 ft wide and has a 2.5 ft rise from one side to the other - exactly 10 degrees. Basically, my question is simply whether or not this is "enough slope" that I need to use slope hardware. I see the range of slope on this hardware is typically given as 9 degrees to 27 degrees. Being that I am at one extreme (the low end), is this necessary? Thanks! Brett |
Follow-Up Postings:
Perhaps yes. If the ceiling slope is noticeable, standard housing and trim would not work too well. Alternatively, you could choose to level the ceiling. Ultimately, it's a matter of personal taste. |

I've seen quiite a few boxes being bought up at the Gameroom so I know that there are a lot of people playing, or at least a lot that want to get games in. If you're looking to get some games in gimmie a shout. I'm gonna have a ton of time here after Friday (shoulder surgery) and I'm gonna need something to keep me busy.

A Person I Don't Want to Be
While the weight loss has been a good thing, of course, there has also been sadness as well. Our dear friends, Mandy & Ed, lost their adorable 17-month-old daughter, Hudson, to an incredibly aggressive case of bacterial meningitis. We were devastated for them and still wonder sometimes if it's all just a bad dream. Mandy & Ed are incredible and determined to move on in a world that is forever changed. They had 2 beautiful memorial services for Hudson, one in DC (where they currently live) and one in Chapel Hill. I hope that every day provides more happiness and laughter for them than the day before. They have unintentionally started a movement called "One Good Thing." At the memorial service, Mandy talked about how she had been planning on teaching Hudson this lesson as she got older. Every time something bad happened, she was going to have them pick one good thing that came out of it. Now it is Hudson teaching all of us that lesson as we struggle to find the good in the midst of unbelieveable sadness. Mandy & Ed are dealing with all of this with an amazing amount of courage and grace. Those of us who loved Hudson are simply trying to support Mandy & Ed and wishing there was SOMETHING we could do to take away even a small amount of their suffering.
Yesterday, Amily and another friend of ours from law school, Sherry, took a road trip to Williamsburg, VA. Mandy drove down from DC and met us at Busch Gardens for some roller coaster therapy. It was an awesome day. The weather was perfect. It wasn't too hot, and the humidity was really low. We walked all over the park and even brought our lunch so we didn't have to eat the heavy park food and then get on roller coasters (okay, I should amend that to say that Mandy, Sherry, and Amily brought lunches and I mooched off all of them because when I went to pack something yesterday morning, I realized I didn't have ANYTHING to bring with me). We started off the day riding Griffon twice. AWESOME ride. We also rode Alpengeist and a few others.
I had confessed to Chris the night before that I was worried I wouldn't fit on a ride. But I didn't REALLY think it would happen. That morning we saw several people who couldn't fit in the seats and had to get off. My heart just hurt for each of them. But after I fit on the first couple, I wasn't really worried anymore. On one of them the guy did have to push a little to get my harness snapped, but nothing major. I will say they all dug into the sides of my thighs pretty badly, but nothing that was too big of a deal.
After lunch we went and got in line for Apollo's Chariot. That ride just had a lap bar, not an over-the-shoulder harness, so I assumed I would be fine. We got on the ride, I lowered my lap bar, and thought we were ready to go. Then a staff member came over to me and said my lap bar wasn't down far enough. She indicated a red line on the bottom of the bar that needed to pass a certain point. It was just a few millimeters away from where it needed to be. They unlocked EVERYONE's lap bars several times as she encouraged me to scoot farther back in my seat and "just pull really hard on the lap bar". Yeah, it didn't work. I think if she had given it a push, it would have gone, but no one offered and I wasn't willing to ask someone to do that, even though I had seen staff do it a ton of times on all the other rides.
After an unbelieveable humiliating few seconds (seemed much longer than that to me), they said I couldn't ride it. So I began the very embarassing journey of getting off the ride and exiting with everyone watching. The other ladies I was with got off with me, which I was grateful for so I wasn't leaving by myself. I took a few minutes to myself, cried, called Chris, got myself together, and then rejoined with them.
As I saw this happen to other people in the morning, I wondered what it must be like to be THAT PERSON. I don't mean that in an ugly way. I felt awful for them and wished I could just give them a hug, but was also grateful, of course, that I wasn't THAT PERSON. And then I became that person. Or, more accurately, realized I really was that person. It was humiliating. I told Amily that I just still don't see myself that way. It's not like I see myself as a size 2, either. I am well aware that I am very overweight. But to not fit on a roller coaster? Am I also going to be the person who has to buy 2 seats on an airplane?
The answer is no. I can't do this. I've already lost 18 lbs., and so I am going to rededicate myself to this. I am dying to get back into excercise. I really, really miss my Jazzercise and want to get back into it. So I'm going to. I'm going to start blogging and keeping my food journal again. I have to do this. I hate the way I look right now. But more importantly, I hate the way I feel right now.
And there is one thing I know for sure. Deep down, I am NOT that person. And I don't want to look like I am anymore.

Welcome back! Congrats on the 18 pounds -- you're off and running and that's the hardest part. Just keep at it and you'll continue to feel better and better.
I'm so very sorry about the loss of your friends' little girl. I cannot even imagine the depths of their grief. It sure puts things in perspective and makes one look at what is really important in life.
Good luck on your journey... - June 12, 2010 at 10:45 PM

I was just checking in the see if the doodle was still on your header. I am honored to see that it is still there. I read your last post. It is a very touching one. I don't want to be that person either. Since July 12th I have lost 37 lbs. My goal is 50 by Jan. 12th.

Mark&Sue's Trip - Day 5 - 16th October
The Cast
Me - Susan (42) DH - Mark (38) DD - Kirsty (stitchgonecrazy) (12, but 13 on 15th Oct) My Best Friend - Lisa (36) Lisa's DH - Maurice (39) Lisa's DS - Jack (9) (9 but 10 on 15th Oct) Lisa's DD - Megan (7) Mark's Best Friend - Terry (38) Terry's DW - Sara (38) This was another one of our grand gathering days. The fireworks voyage watching Hallowishes. But first everyone but me and Kirsty went to Typhoon Lagoon. I don't like water parks and Kirsty's didn't feel up to swimming as she still had a cold. I told Kirsty we could go whereever she wanted to go and she said she would like to look at Animal Kingdom Lodge as we had never been there. I thought that was a good idea but thought we should go to Animal Kingdom first to have a go on Expedition Everest as we had never been on this before. We took the bus and got to the entrance of the ride at 11.00. It had a 40 minute wait listed and sure enough we got on the ride at 11.40. I didn't like the backwards bit and was surprised it finished so quickly, but was not too bad. We then went on Dinosaur which was really good as usual. We left the park on the way out and shared a sticky bun. It was later than I thought and we decided that whichever bus came first we would take either the Saratogo Springs bus back to our resort or the Animal Kingdom Lodge bus. The Saratoga Springs bus came first and we got off at the stop at the shop. I was just buying some snacks for lunch when Mark phoned me while I was about to pay to tell me they were all heading back to the villa for lunch and were going to order pizza delivery. So I put the food back and just purchased the Disney Cruise 2007 guide and a Saratoga Springs back pack (which I have been using this week at work!). We walked back to the villa and on the way back walked past a DVC guide who told me that the next DVC resort had been announced at Animal Kingdom Lodge. I was really surprised and was glad that we did not make our visit to the resort as we could save our visit until we would be staying at a DVC villa there. Everyone got back to our villa and we ordered Pizza Hut pizzas which were delivered to our door. They were lovely. We were told by our Grand Gathering letters (all 8 of them!) to meet at the Contemporary Hotel Marina at 8.15. So we walked the 5 minutes to Downtown Disney to get the Contemporary bus early to have a look round the contempary shops. Next we had some lovely cocktails in the Contemporary bar The time was approaching 8.15 so we went off to the Marina. By 8.30 it was raining and I was in a panic. No sign of the boat or anybody. Eventually a castmember appeared to ask us if we were here for the grand gathering he said we should have been upstairs in one of the hospitality rooms. There was no mention of this on any of the letters we had received and I was not happy. By the time we got to the room lots of the food had been eaten! We stuffed our faces with chocolate brownies, crisps, chocolate coins and cerial bars which were still left. We got our photos taken with Captain Hook and then Mr Smee Finally it was time to board our boat. I had stupidly thought we were going to get a boat to ourselves and was a bit disappointed but we had Pirate Patch to entertain us and he was great. We sang songs and did a Disney Trivia quiz for the kids. Jack won a toy telescope. First we saw the electrical water pageant and then the fireworks. We had music with the fireworks, most of which came from the film Nightmare before Chrismas which Jack and Kirsty really like. The fireworks were very good. When we got off the boat we had a chance to meet Peter Pan Finally we posed for one more photo before heading back to Villas for our nightly irish coffees. This fireworks cruise had not been as good as I was expecting it to be so was a bit disappointed, but was still a very good experience which we are unlikely to do again as we need at least 8 for a "Grand Gathering" Susan

I'm making a "wish list" for the newly-redesigned Finished Kitchens Blog. I've already completed many updates, and have a list of others that I want to implement. But I'd like to prioritize my wish list and would love your comments.
What do you like about the new FKB, and what do you dislike? What else would you like to see (within reason)? Oh... fyi... be sure to also visit the redesigned Backsplash Blog and the new Before&After Blog. |
Follow-Up Postings:
ugh... title should read: The "new" Finished Kitchens Blog - what do you like, what do you dislike? How did I miss that? |
starpooh, I'm so excited that you are updating the FKB! I'll have to revisit it to remember changes I'd like to see. There are so many new kitchens that I hope to see added soon! |
Thanks home4all6, I'm excited, too! This new format makes it so easy for me to post new kitchens. I'm trying to add a new kitchen each day. |
- Posted by maggiebkit (My Page) on Thu, Oct 11, 12 at 21:52
I love the thumbnails. I can see the kitchen and decide if I want to click and see more. Thank you so much!!!!! |
Hi Starpooh, I really love the new FKB! I noticed that my kitchen is not in it, though. It used to be in the old one. Are you still adding kitchens? Was I supposed to do something to add it during the switch? Thank you so much for your time in creating this amazing resource! |
It would be nice if there was a way to group the kitchens in some manner, preferably by color. |
Just more eye candy. That's all. I get lost in your FKB and Houzz. Then there's some of the HGtV and BH&G and (stop me) all the others. I never get anything done. Really. For weeks. Love it. |
maggiebkit - I love the thumbnails, too! I also love all the different ways the blogger template lets me view kitchens. angel411 - I'm so sorry! I had neglected to move the list of "Coming Soon" kitchens from the original FKB into the new one. I have been adding "coming soon" kitchens to the new FKB but very slowly, giving priority to the newest kitchens. (The newest kitchens use the new checklist which makes it so easy for me to post them.) DCJersey - Have you tried using the categories? If you go to the Category List page you can find kitchens with specific cabinet colors: CEFreeman - I know the feeling... I need to set a timer to remind myself not to stay up all night on the FKB and Houzz. :-) |
Thanks! Yes, send me the checklist and I will be glad to fill it out. You are amazing! |
Star, thanks for answering these questions. I wasn't sure how to find the category list. |
- Posted by jerzeegirl (My Page) on Fri, Oct 12, 12 at 14:35
I love the Finished Kitchens Blog! I have spent hours looking at the slideshow of the finished kitchens on the old FKB. Is there a way to do a slideshow on the New FKB? With the larger photographs? If there is, I haven't figured it out yet. |
Thanks, I didnt notice the different category options. You might want to make that easier to find. |
ellendi and DCJersey - Thanks for the feedback. I'll make the categories easier to find on the main page. jerzeegirl - You can use the Dynamic View "Sidebar" for a slideshow-type view. But this doesn't give you the large 640x480 photos. Angel411 - Wow... you are fast! I received your completed checklist last night and will have your kitchen posted within a few days. Thanks! |
Finding the categories--yes. That's my suggestion. To me a successful site has two characteristics: A good search function and really good content worth searching for. Everything else is secondary. Right now, the casual visitor is likely to think you view the kitchens by opening a thumbnail, closing it, and opening another. Want a design for a wood stove hood? Settle in for a looong search, and with luck MAYBE something will be there to find. I'd suggest that you explain right at the top of the home page, as succinctly as possible, that people searching for ideas for a specific feature need only do X to find a whole bunch of ideas. "Categories" isn't a commonly used word, and on top of that it's hidden under "Views", another uncommon term. There are so many things to find on the web, that a lot of people finding the FKB for the first time won't go on a site search, opening and closing various windows, to find out if it's possible to do a search by the feature in question--especially when they don't know yet if there's much of anything to be found. Otherwise, I love the new thumbnails (wonderful!) and the rest of the new Finished Kitchens Blog. Thanks. |
jerzeegirl - This new FKB is much more photo-oriented than the old FKB, so I decided to go for it and include the larger 640x480 images in each post (but only one, the main photo). I've also added a slideshow using the larger images. rosie - Thank you for your insights. I did not realize how difficult it was to find specific features in the FKB. It's easy for me to search because I know what to look for. :-) Is there anything else that should be improved? |
I hope to post soon!!! |
Starpooh, I can't get over the amount of time you have put into this. I'm assuming this is volunteer time? Regardless, it is lots of work and much appreciated. I will leave the recommendations to those who know more about web design. Just a question: is there a way to update pictures? I've never staged pics with a "real" camera, and would love to replace photos once I do. I'd hate to make you (or someone else) do the replacing too, but I'm also liking that you've embedded the person's name on the photo, and would be clueless on knowing how to do this. Thanks so much! |
Just clicked on the links and WOW...so much to look at! I didn't know these existed. How do you get to the links from the main page? Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see the links in any drop-down menu. That is my one suggestion - make the links visible from the main home forum page. Thx! |
a2gemini - Great! Send me an email (starpooh at gmail dot com) when you're ready to post and I will give you the FKB Checklist. AnnaA - Yes, it's all volunteer time (although, as with all bloggers, I make some money on ads from Google Adsense). But it's a very relaxing night-time ritual; my brain is tired from working on the computer all day. Sitting in a big easy chair while watching HGTV, posting photos and categorizing kitchens is actually fun! And it keeps me busy so I don't order things on amazon. :-) wags848 - Are you viewing the FKB from a computer, tablet or smartphone? From a computer I see these links at the top right of the page: Home, Find-A-Kitchen, View Photos, Slideshows, Add My Kitchen, Articles, Links, About/Contact |
starpooh - I am normally viewing from a computer; sometimes an iPad. Here is a screenshot of what I see. I'm still not seeing the links you listed. |
wags848 - Are you sure you are looking at the Finished Kitchens Blog? The image you uploaded is the main page for Gardenweb. The Finished Kitchens Blog is not part of Gardenweb. It's a separate site that I maintain. This is an image of the main page of the FKB. |
starpooh - Well that explains it!! LOL. I'm so sorry, but I just assumed the links were part of GardenWeb! No wonder I couldn't find them! :) Anyway, I will bookmark your site and have a good look! Thanks, |

I just started in February, so just about 2 months. I love it! I still have a lot to learn, but I'm having tons of fun already... :)
I just started in February, so just about 2 months. I love it! I still have a lot to learn, but I'm having tons of fun already... :)
I hybrid in the days of DOS
I started total digi pages in the mid 90's & yes all the pages are just fine today! No fading or discoloring.
Programs I have used Print Master, Print Artist, Print Shop, MS Word, PS6, PS7, PSE5, & now PSE6 I think that covers them all.
It sure is a lot easier now that you don't have to scan in the photos first just plug in your camara chip.
I've been digiscrapping for about 18 months or so now. I use Photoshop Elements 4, and just love it, although I still have a lot to learn!
I started to dabble with digital graphics last December and discovered digi scrapping at the beginning of this year. My first completed layout was for Andrea's February template challenge. Hope I'll sometime get to the point where I'll be able to do really nice layouts without the help of templates.
I started paper scrapping in the mid 1990's, and even then, I was scanning in most of my photos to create my paper scrapbooks. In fact, I just paged through my first one yesterday gain, and both my husband and I were commenting about how far I've come, and how wonderful digi scrapping is.
Helene Isn't it nice to be in the cool crowd It only to a decade to get there but we made it
Here to the all those computer lovers from way back
I've been scrapping for less than 6 months.
I started with Scrapbook Factory & then graduated to PSE5 & then PSE6. I do think Scrapbook Factory was a good way to start. I was able to easily create some layouts & calendars without a lot of learning.
I feel that photoshop elements is so awesome compared to Scrapbook Factory, but if I would have started with PSE I probably would have been so overwhelmed I wouldn't have continued.
Kris Ann
I know what you mean about the learning in PSE. I'm still using PSE 4, have 6 in the box, but in no hurry to upgrade. I really like what PSE can do as far as creating scrapbook pages goes. I was on my way, once I understood how layers work. I had trouble getting the brush tool to work as well, but now am comfortable using almost everything it has to offer.
About a week now.
But I used to make icons for my livejournal so I had a head start with Photoshop
Your Lo's are lovely Nachtstern, so being familiar with your program is a big help in creating wonderful LO's. Looking forward to seeing lots more of your work in the gallery.

Love all these ideas! It really does add to the excitement I think. Specially when you know you have a long wait still (our next trip will be May 2014)
The obvious thing I see in all those posts is that we DISboarders are making a family disney vacation a priority. We're willing to give up and skip other things that other people aren't

Kudos to your kids. Thats great. At the age of 7 and 5 they are already learning that in order to get what they want in life they may have to give up other things to get to that goal. Thats fantastic.

Also check out the Disney Individual Enrollment/YES program.
It usually consists of a 2 or 3 hour program like learning about the science behind the rides, history of California or how animation works etc. They offer this class in conjunction with low park hopper tickets! For example it's $235 to do any of the above and that INCLUDES a 5 day park hopper ticket! |

- monthly deposit to holiday account ($300)
- change jar - pop bottle deposit money - choosing not to by items and putting the money in the jar instead ( ie. valentines gifts) - we are canadian so we use the airmiles program to earn free flights - selling old kids toys online (and buying a few new ones used to save $) - as a general rule I try to buy most items on sale, including groceries, which saves a lot in general This year we created a disney jar and the kids have added some money. We also use it to talk about items we need versus items we want but don't need. The kids are really excited and it is helping them learn more about money and being responsible with it. |

I use to be a SAHM but for the past couple of years I've been in a quasi-tipped position (we pool our tips). Since we were used to living on one paycheck I save my tips - my check goes straight to our checking account.
I have paid for one trip to DLR (and Sea World) and one to WDW (and Universal) - flights, hotels, food, tix etc. - with my tips and a little help from the internet For the DLR trip I saved points in my reward sites and got gift cards for nearby restaurants - so nice to have so many w/in walking distance (unlike WDW). For some other places I got cards from discount gift card sites - plastic Jungle, Gift Card Rescue etc. I looked every other day for the best price on flights and car rentals. Through My Coke Rewards I was able to get a SW coupon that saved us $60. Costco has amazing car rental deals from SNA. We paid - I kid you not - $76 total for 8 days! I de-cluttered our place and sold anything small enough to be mailed on Ebay. Sold some old furniture on Craigslist. I signed up for email newsletters from different places - they send out coupons all the time. If your birthday is while you are on vacation it is even better! There are also a couple of Anaheim sites that have coupons for nearby restaurants and attractions. We put all our change in a Tiki Mickey bank - in 10 months we had about $85 Right now we are planning a trip to Philadelphia/Sesame Place/Hershey Place and are doing the same things - saving and research! |

We take one big vacation each year and a few smaller ones. Th big one is paid w/ by the tax refund.
But for extras I belong to 3 swap sites on FB and I regularly make $100+ /mo selling kids clothes there. We don't eat out much to save for traveling. We buy everything on credit and pay it off each month to accumulate air miles. kids and I go to CA SAt for 5 days. I am a teacher and passed a national boards exam and earned a small stipend this yr and so I chose to spend it on this extra trip. For summer we are all 5 flying. I read on DIS about the special SWA was having so DH and I both got credit cards and we each get 50K miles. That should cover 4 of us. We also balance the trips w/ 1 meal out and the rest packed. Last yr we drove to DL (11 day road trip from WA) and it was great to bring food and souvenirs from home. |

For our Disneyland trip, we've had it in the works for 5 years, so we've just been putting money away for it.
We are wanting to do a Disney Cruise to Alaska in a couple of years - significantly more money to save. Our two biggest plans: $5 Savings Plan: Every time you have a $5 bill, you put it in a jar - never spend it. It adds up quickly. Disney Gift Cards - we have purchased hundreds in all increments (anywhere from $20-$100). I buy at least one every week - minimum of $50 for the week - you don't realize what you waste $50 on in a week until you're putting it toward something specific.

Really good ideas.
Let me also state how the "change jar" can make a nice difference. I have a large dry pasta glass storage thing next to my where i put my watch and wallet at the end of every night. I throw my change from the day in to it and am amazed how much it adds up every year. I am able to usually get around $200 from the jar the week before the trip. That is the money i keep in my pocket to pay for those little things during the week like McDonalds, Gas, IN-N-OUT, parking, etc. $200 may not seem like much, but it keeps $200 off of a credit card. Here is anothe thing that saves us HUGE MONEY....we bought a time-share in Anaheim. We have a two-bedroom apartment/suite at Dolphin's cove. It literally cost me $235 (not a typo) and I have to pay yearly maintenance of $835. The first year the maintenance was paid. We would stay at a nicer hotel that would run about $200.00 per night, so a week would run about $1600+ and we were never as comfortable as we are now. With the $800 we save on that, we pay a substantial part of our airfare from KC. Diffinitely not a solution that works for everyone, but it has saved us a ton of money. The nice part is that if we decided to take a year off from SoCal, I can rent my week out for around $1500. Another place we saved big money was using costcotravel.com for our rental car. This does not always work as they only provide massive discounts if the rental companies have big car inventories very close to your trip. Here is what I do, I make a reservation early with National Car rental (my preferred company) so I am guaranteed a car. Then, i watch costco weekly to try to get a better deal. In October my National reservation would have run $300. Costco ended up costing me $97.00 (total, including taxes and fees) My suggestion is to attack every area of your spend and constantly look to reduce costs. Coupons, credit card offeres, discount books, web sites,....just keep at it! |

We charge every purchase to our SPG (Starwood Preferred Guest) American Express Card. Starwood Hotels run Swan and Dolphin, as well as Sheraton, Westin, etc. We pay everything off at the end of the month. Then we book on points. Our last two Disney Vacations (we go about every other year) have been with free lodging. We usually stay 6 nights.
With that said, we are pretty disciplined with spending in general. I try to go to the grocery store only once a week, cutting down on those impulse buys. I make a menu and shopping list and stick to it. We try to charge our insurance, any major repairs, all our medical co-pays, everything we can to add to our points for vacation. |

Carolyn's question was the same I had a while back. I see a Disney vacation as having four main components: Transportation, Lodging, Food, Entertainment (including park tickets).
I've spent some time researching these area, and I've found a way to mitigate lodging (via joining DVC), food (via DVC, that is eat in the room with the full kitchen and ask for Disney cards for Christmas/birthday), entertainment (a little harder, but ticket discounts are key). The trickiest (and high cost) was transportation. This started my quest for low cost airfare (and possibly car rentals) to Disney, and this is what I found. It might be harder for Canadians, but a good way to offset transportation (and some lodging) costs is to leverage your credit. There are several travel blogs that talk about how to use daily spend to gain credit card signup bonuses. For instance, in January we signed up for the US Airways card from Barclays bank that provided 40,000 US Airways miles on first spend. I charged $7 on it for something, and received the points. Since it has no annual fee for the first year, I have no out of pocket for 2013, and can cancel as 2014 approaches if I don't use the benefits. US Airways is in the Star Alliance, so it can yield 2 round trip tickets on US Airways, United, Air Canada, or another partner. I also signed up for the Chase Sapphire Preferred card. It gives 40,000 Ultimate Rewards points after $3,000 spend in 3 months. UR points can be used to buy tickets out right (about $400 for the 40k), or transferred to Chase partners like Southwest Airlines or United for airfare. Between the two, we will have 80,000 miles for and Star Alliance carrier reward ticket (United, US Airways, Air Canada, etc), which is at least three round trip tickets for the cost of normal daily spend (groceries, gas, cell phones, etc). The trick is to pay the cards off at the end of the month as if it were cash. In reality for our trip in May, two of the three tickets (for DW & DD) were free using Delta miles we received during a promotion and meeting daily spend on the Delta card. ETA: a better option than the Disney card by Chase (which I have too) is a straight 2% cash back card. |

I also stay at home with the kids. Being Canadian I get the $100 monthly child credit. I was using the monthly $200 for kid stuff, but realized if I didn't we never really noticed that much of a strain on the bank account. I started cashing the cheque and stashing it away. My husband never noticed that our grocery/Walmart bill went up.
Then, every time I went to Walmart/superstore/anywhere with cash back I would do either $20 or $40 cash back. All of that got stashed away. I also have my own business making paper goods (cards, birthday banners, party supplies) and any cash order would get tucked away as well. I finally told my husband what I've been doing, and he's happy I now have $2,000 stored away to help pay for the trip. I really reccomended the cash back because it doesn't seem like much but it does add up quickly. |

My kids are in on the saving too. They love saving for "the next time we go" to DL. My youngest is 4 and doesn't even realize there's actually a date, but he's still excited to have his own money when we go, lol). I also have a thing for change in my room by where my jewelery is kept. I use a DL popcorn bucket, the kids have Disney banks. I cash our change in for Disney gift cards every so often. We have about $400 worth so far for the December trip (we decided on Christmas that we want to go next Christmas) and its only been about 2 months. Thing is, nobody in the house spends change, we all put it in the bucket.

It's interesting to read all post and see how people save.. and if you really start to compare, the most important thing to notice is discipline, and consistancy. for my 2011 trip, I had recently paid off an ATV (my toy) and instead of canceling the auto deposit into a seperate bank account for the monthly payment, i just left it the same as obviously after 2 years of paying it off, i never saw that money, so i learned how to budget around it.
1. auto deposit into bank account. Remember... discipline!! don't touch it, it's your vacation money. 2. another thing mentioned here.. Spare change, change jar, even dollar bills. if it's less than $5 bill in my pocket or wallet, i throw it into the jar. you would be AMAZED!! as to how fast this adds up. 3. any yard sales, garage sales, etc. deposit into vacaction fund.. While mostly all people here have the same idea, i did this for 1 1/2 years, and i had enough for a PAID IN FULL Disney vacation. And as we all know.... it can add up quickly!! NOTHING is cheap in DISNEYLAND and it can quickly escalate into thousands. During that time i saved enough for a 8 night stay at the GCH, w/ 6 day park hoppers (when they had'em), 1 day at universal studios, roundtrip flights, rental car, food money, souvenir money, without spending an extra dime. and still had some left over. and yes....since that last 2011 trip... i'm doing it again in 2013!!! YEEEHAAA!!!! Good luck!! and remember... DISCIPLINE!!!!

Nutella has been part of European and North American families for years, so it was no surprise that when the Nutella Esperienza Italia 150 project was released, four different jar images were revealed in honor of the Nutella brand and its culture.
Designed by ARC'S in Italy, the four jar designs involved the arts, landscapes and history, with each portraying a very unique and colorful approach to Italy. The art-themed package celebrated music, poetry and Italian cinema, while the landscape version paid homage to Italy's beautiful architecture.
The Nutella Esperienza Italia 150 editions are limited in number, so make sure you get your fill of this chocolatey goodness before they run out. There is only one brand that is able to showcase Frederico Fellini, Rome and Vespas, and get away with it with such charming branding.

CENTRAL FALLS — Sparky's Restaurant and Mayor James Diossa share much in common.
What's obvious is that the hot-spot eatery and 28-year-old leader both reside in Central Falls — the state's smallest city spanning less than 1.3 square miles. Immediately north of Pawtucket, it takes its name from a waterfall on the Blackstone River and was once a part of Smithfield and Lincoln.
"It's a cool city on the rebound," Diossa said proudly, while acknowledging that the city, which has emerged from federal bankruptcy and state receivership, remains vulnerable. "We're battling a stigma that the city is dangerous, drug-infested and a lost cause, but what you will see in Central Falls is everyone is welcoming, close-knit and ready for success."
Its motto is a "city with a bright future."
Any city colloquially known as Chocolateville, as it was in the 18th century, is all right in my book. A park on the banks of the Blackstone is called Chocolate Mill Overlook, a nod to the city's manufacturing past with one of North America's earliest water-powered chocolate mills: the William Wheat Chocolate Mill.
The fat kid in me was disappointed not to find the river flowing with chocolate milk, or a confectionary treat next to each plant and bench. Can we say yummy?
But I digress…
As for Sparky's and Diossa's similarities: they're both laid back, love dogs and value a good sense of humor.
A sign near the cash register in the 60-year-old restaurant on Dexter Street reads, "You don't have to be crazy to work here, we'll train you." It also has a frying pan as a clock, an entryway of hanging plants and cacti, and a magically delicious egg-white and veggie-filled omelet called the "garbage."
Dalmatian trinkets and art — resembling Sparky the Fire Dog, the longtime mascot of the National Fire Prevention Association — is its primary decorating theme. Third-generation owner John Chippis says the first spotted dog figurine above the grill at the restaurant's old location down the road was destroyed — ironically — in a fire.
"I must have 500 Sparky dogs now," Chippis says.
Diossa has a dog, Ella, but she's a golden retriever. Without hesitation, the mayor joked about being single and his inability to cook well, or at all. In between bites and interruptions from residents, he also chatted about his siblings, his old desire to be a police officer, his love of soccer and hanging out as a Central Falls youngster at the top of the Cogswell Tower in Jenks Park.
He's a Sparky's regular for breakfast. On this day with me, server Patty Tait brought the Latino mayor his usual — a ham and bubbling cheese (this time with egg) sandwich on an English muffin and some juice.
"My grandfather used to take me here," Diossa says, recalling his first memory of Sparky's. "I loved the pancakes … with lots of syrup."
He said the restaurant is a great place to show off Central Falls, but rattled off a half-dozen more restaurants that make the city proud. Then he talked about its incredible diversity, rising schools and plans for growth.
"I am very humbled to be leading this city, especially coming out of bankruptcy," he said.
When asked if being younger than 30 is a hindrance, Diossa said people have questioned if "'this young kid could handle leading this city,' but I don't see it as pressure. I see it as a challenge that I am up for. Age ain't nothing but a number, and I have surrounded myself with good people."

AADA Updates Position on Isotretinoin
Posted: November 30, 2010
page 2 of 2
Compliance should still be maintained with the manufacturer-sponsored and FDA-approved risk management program for prescribing isotretinoin (iPLEDGE). The AADA opposes on-line Internet dispensing, sharing, or use without physician supervision, because these activities do not provide for sufficient patient education about isotretinoin risks and do not require participation in the iPLEDGE program.
The position statement concludes that the prescription of isotretinoin for severe nodular acne continues to be appropriate as long as prescribing physicians are aware of the issues related to isotretinoin use.
"Physicians should to be alert to potential concerns, including IBD or psychiatric disturbance, educate their patients about these and other potential risks, and monitor their patients for any indication of these symptoms," said Dr. James.
The updated position statement is based on review of the latest evidence regarding isotretinoin and the treatment of severe acne. "The effectiveness of isotretinoin therapy in the treatment of acne has been demonstrated in numerous clinical studies which are referenced in the position statement," said Stephen P. Stone, MD, FAAD, chair of the AADA's retinoids task force. "When and if new data become available, additional updates to the position statement will be considered."

SELMER, Tenn., Nov 20, 2010 -- "Air evacuation services provides a vital function in accessing timely healthcare for the treatment of trauma injured patients," said Robert Sibley Airport Manager Chris Tull. "This service will reduce our patient transfer times from roughly two and a half hours to 25 to 30 minutes."
The Robert Sibley Airport will now have the ability to transport their trauma patients to Memphis or Nashville for treatment thanks to a partnership between USDA Rural Development (RD) and the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) Aeronautics Division. Rural Development Area Director Arlisa Armstrong and local officials announced the federal investment at the airport today.
Funding for the new Helicopter Medical Support Center includes an RD grant of $82,400, a TDOT grant of $312,000 and contributions from the airport of $48,000. The facility will be owned by the McNairy County Airport Authority and will be staffed by members of the Hospital Wing of Memphis.
Construction includes a helicopter landing pad, box hanger, work space and living quarters for the on-duty flight crew. The hanger will be equipped with the latest emergency response communications equipment including emergency power generation. Officials said the support center will employ about 13 professionals to staff the facility 24 hours-a-day, seven days a week.
"Reliable access to quality healthcare is critical to the economic health of Rural Communities, especially in times of crisis" said Armstrong. "Providing the best equipment and facilities saves families and businesses time and money, but most important, it saves lives."
Others participating in the event included State Senator Delores Grisham, Selmer Mayor David Robinson, Adamsville Mayor David Leckner, Chairman of the McNairy County Airport Board Robert E. Sibley, Jr., Robert E. Sibley Airport staff, Hospital Wing of Memphis staff and RD Area Specialist Billy Lane.
Rural Development business grants help local governments and non-profit organizations improve local business infrastructure and promote job growth. Business loans provide needed financing for rural businesses and loan-guarantees are also available to help private lenders to increase the pool of investment capital available for business start-up, modernization and expansion in eligible rural areas.
USDA Rural Development invests in jobs, infrastructure, homeownership and affordable rental housing in rural communities. With supplemental funding through the Recovery Act, the agency assisted more than 1.5 million Tennessee families and businesses with more than $1.3 billion in financial assistance through affordable loans, loan guarantees and grants. More than 86 percent of these investments will be paid back with interest. The rest is at work creating jobs, broadening the local tax base and increasing opportunities in education, training, healthcare and public safety.

Hey guys, So I have a lot of plants. A lot. Like 80ish? Any way, I started back to school in January and I am continuing to work so I have had a lot less time to check and water all my plants. A few of the less tolerant ones have suffered with the less frequent watering. If all of the leaves on the plant appear completely dry and "crispy" to the touch, can it be revived? Effectively, I'm guessing these leaves(all of them) are not alive any more, so can the plant be alive? Will it recover if I keep watering?? It is amazing as it happened so fast...they look fine one day and the next it's all crispy and the leaves are dead. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It really depends on the type of plant. some will just lose their leaves as a defence mechanism to conserve water loss thru transpiration. Plenty have the capacity to be revived, plenty don't. You'll just have to do your best. Please label everything just in case so you know what's what. Cut off the dead and dying stuff as it will do nothing for recovery and just provide a haven for disease. DON'T overwater, in fact if the pots have been sufficiently re-wetted just leave them alone as the plant needs time to recover and won't be drawing up much moisture and you will drown the roots. Be very very patient. |
Leaves can't be revived once they're dead. "Completely dry and crispy " translates to dead! However, the leaves can be dead without taking the whole plant with them. Depending upon the kind of plant, new growth can emerge from the stems or crown. It would be very helpful if we knew what kind of plants you're worried about. |
Well the current plant I'm worried about is a Miracle Fruit plant. Seriously, one day it was fine, the next day all leaves are crispy. And it was after maybe 4-5 days without water..It never wilted, just dried up. |

From her bedroom decorated with stars, 13-year-old Claire looks out over nine-mile-long Otsego Lake, one of her favorite places. A student at Cooperstown Central School, Claire loves paddling a canoe and playing tennis. Also, like everyone else in this baseball-crazy village smack in the middle of New York, she can tell you a thing or two about the national pastime. She has a big brother, Nick, a cat named Tigger, and two dogs, Joe and Cal (in honor of Cal Ripken Jr., of course). Her parents, who import Belgian beers, often take the kids on business trips. Claire's top stops so far: Deer Isle, Maine; Pawleys Island, South Carolina; Florence; London; and Brussels. She knows exactly what kids like to do when they're traveling, which makes her the perfect guide to her own hometown.
"Cooperstown is tiny—Main Street is just six blocks long, and there's only one traffic light. It's also packed with people all spring and summer. But in fall and winter everything quiets down, the air is crisp and sparkly, the leaves are beautiful, and then there's lots of snow—it's the perfect time to visit.
The town is named for Judge William Cooper, father of novelist James Fenimore Cooper; he moved here in 1785 when the whole area was a wilderness. Today, though, everyone knows Cooperstown as the birthplace of baseball (a claim always being debated) and the home of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The story goes that in 1839 a guy named Abner Doubleday marked out a diamond-shaped field in a cow pasture, made some changes to a game called Town Ball, and invented baseball. It caught on here, and then during the Civil War Northern soldiers held captive in the South taught the game to the Confederates. In 1939 the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum opened [25 Main St.; 888/425-5633 or 607/547-7200; www.baseballhalloffame.org], and every year since then new players are inducted. You can see plaques of all the Hall of Famers and lots of other baseball stuff—the glove Willie Mays wore when he made his famous catch in the 1954 World Series; a 1909 Honus Wagner, the world's most valuable baseball card; Ty Cobb's spikes.There's a research library with people who can answer every question you can think of, and a clip of the old Abbott and Costello routine "Who's on First" runs all the time. The Hall is undergoing renovations until 2005, but don't worry, it's still open.
Just down Main Street from the Hall is Doubleday Field, which sits on that old cow pasture (look for the Sandlot Kid statue out front). The stadium is very quaint and the field is small, so players hit homers here all the time. I've run the bases, and our school's varsity team plays here. Other teams come to play too, and you can watch most games free.
If you're not totally baseball-obsessed, there are lots of other cool things to do. Fenimore Art Museum [Lake Rd., off Rte. 80; 888/547-1450 or 607/547-1400] has a big collection of Native American art—masks and drums and buffalo robes—and a real Iroquois log house that you can go into, beside the lake. Across the street is the Farmers' Museum [Lake Rd., Rte. 80; 607/547-1450], with old buildings, like a blacksmith's shop, a tavern, a doctor's office, and a general store (where you can get rock candy)—plus plenty of cows, turkeys, and chickens.
No matter where you are in Cooperstown you're never far from the lake. You can see all the way up it to Mount Wellington, which looks like a sleeping lion. Sometimes I get up really early and go canoeing with my best friend, Julia. It's so mysterious. The fog rises and we feel as if we've gone back hundreds of years. You can rent a canoe or a fishing pontoon—and a fishing pole, too—at Sam Smith's Boatyard [6098 Rte. 80; 607/547-2543]. If you find the echo place in the middle of the lake, you can yell 'hello' and the hills say 'hello' right back. (James Fenimore Cooper wrote about that in his Leatherstocking Tales.) In the winter the whole thing freezes; you can walk out on it and drop a line into a hole and hope a fish passes by. Biking around the lake is a feat—it's about 23 miles; rent wheels at Velosophy [5 Railroad Ave.; 607/547-2453]—but along the way, you'll see Glimmerglass State Park [607/547-8662]; Hyde Hall, a house museum [607/547-5098]; and Glimmerglass Opera [607/547-2255; July-August season]. Outside town there are back roads that are fun to walk or bike. A book called Walking, Running, and Biking in the Otsego Hills [$5 at Fenimore Art Museum and Farmers' Museum shops] has all the routes.
In winter we go sledding at Leatherstocking Golf Course, skating on the lake, tubing at Glimmerglass State Park, and cross-country skiing everywhere. Just before Christmas, there's a Candlelight Evening at the Farmers' Museum, with hot cider, wassail, sleigh rides, St. Nicholas in old-fashioned clothes, and lots of candles. Everyone in town comes.
What else do people do here?The Clark Sports Center [124 Susquehanna Ave.; 607/547-2800] has pools, rock-climbing walls, a bowling alley, and saunas, among other things. I love the ropes course, where you're 30 feet in the air, using ropes and swings to travel over two pools. Warning: It takes a good two hours. Call ahead to make a reservation.
Now for some ways to blow your allowance. There are 30 or so baseball stores in town. It's pretty overwhelming. I'd go for the shop inside the Hall of Fame, which sells every kind of baseball souvenir. At Mickey's Place [74 Main St.; 607/547-5775] you can get just about any baseball card or cap. Cooperstown Bat Co. [118 Main St.; 607/547-2415] sells bats made right here at its factory. F. R. Woods House of Pro Sports [61 Main St.; 607/547-2161] has two big rooms full of memorabilia. Grab one of those stadium horns that make everyone crazy.
When I'm spending my own money I go to Essential Elements Day Spa & Boutique [137 Main St.; 607/547-9432] for beaded bracelets. When I'm spending my parents' money I go straight to the Purple Star Boutique [31 Pioneer St.; 607/547-8479] for hats, gloves, and camisoles.

In the onDiagramComplete method we get the active page and reset the zoom level. From the active page we retrieve the collection of shapes and store them in a variable. We also add two more handlers when the mouse pointer enters a shape and leaves a shape. They are called respectively shapemouseleave and shapemouseenter.
To finalize we implement both methods called OnShapeMouseEnter and onShapeMouseLeave. These methods are called with the args parameter containing the ID of the shape. The only thing we do here is adding a highlight to the shape and removing it again from the shape.
The second method is called EndGetData. This method is called by the Visio Services when the custom provider has finished retrieving the data. It returns its own DataSet.
The actual data retrieval happens in the method called by the initiated thread from BeginGetData. This method is filling the DataSet in the provider from a particular data source. If in the event an error occurred we are able to return a message to the end user using the class AddonDataHandlerExpection.
At the end of this method we set the completed variable to true indicating that the asynchronous process has finished. Finally we invoke the Visio Services callback method to return.

text: Let's face it: no matter what sport you play, your ability to jump higher and avoid injury are key elements to your success. Stroops created Explosive Calves to help athletes maximize the extension of the ankle, while developing and building strength in the calf muscles used to jump, run, and sprint. Comprised of a calf strap with an elastic band that attaches to the shoelaces closest to the toes, Explosive Calves create graduated resistance to the calves, which strengthens the muscles below the knee. Stroops' ingenious design makes it possible for athletes to wear Explosive Calves while playing sports, which heighten the effects of drills and agility training. Professional trainers also include Explosive Calves to prevent common overuse injuries such as shin splints, heel drop, and fallen arches. Included are two calf straps and two light elastics with clips. Extra elastics sold separately for added resistance.
