The Multilingual Input Method - Egg V4 This enables you to input Multilingual Characters. Tamago is only coded by emacs lisp. This input method is working with various translation servers (i.e. jserver, cserver, tserver, Wnn6, SJ3 ver 1 and ver 2, cannaserver and wxgserver). This package also includes enhancements from Debian, some of which are: - Partial support for Wnn7/Wnn8. - Support connection to cannaserver using UNIX domain socket. WWW: http://git.chise.org/gitweb/?p=elisp/tamago.git;a=summary
NOTE: FreshPorts displays only information on required and default dependencies. Optional dependencies are not covered.
This port is required by:
To install the port: cd /usr/ports/editors/tamago/ && make install cleanTo add the package: pkg install editors/tamago
cd /usr/ports/editors/tamago/ && make install clean
pkg install editors/tamago
===> The following configuration options are available for tamago-emacs24-126.96.36.199.20041122.19_8: DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation ===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Affects: users of editors/tamago
Author: firstname.lastname@example.com
Reason: The Wnn backend of editors/tamago port now uses unix domain socket to communicate the server by default. If $[CJKT]SERVER environment variable is defined, the value is used as the server host name. In JSERVER case, for example, the server name is determined in the following way: $JSERVER --(if null)--> wnn-jserver --(if null)--> "unix" If the server host name is null or matches "^unix$", unix domain socket is used. The path name of the socket can be specified in wnn-[cjkt]udpath custom variable.

©2013 Nate Beeler, The Columbus Dispatch
The reelection of Boehner to the Speaker's position makes it undeniably official. The Republican Party is NOT in the least bit interested in challenging the Left in the on-going destruction of America.
Why Republicans even bother to defend the GOP and the indefensible is a mystery to me. The GOP is in a way even slimier than the Democrat Party. At least the Dems come straight at you these days while the Republicans slink through the shadows and attack from behind at the most opportune times for them.
I loathe BOTH parties with equal intensity and don't forget, Prince Boehner is THIRD in the line of succession to the Oval Office. Sorry, I mean Offal Office. If he keeps sucking up to Obama and the Progressives his chances of great reward after out fall are increased. He could NOT care less what happens to any of us.
I'd like to see the cartoon elephants to pull a lot harder on the cartoon Boehner. The real ones never will.

That is it. You're done. You are a now a master of finding some of the best background surfaces for food photography.
In my experience as a food photographer shooting mostly on location in restaurants, one of the most challenging, yet fun aspects is trying to locate interesting places upon which to place a dish. The goal is to not only add visual appeal to your final photograph but to also try to compliment the dish itself, as well as creating a cohesive set of images to compliment and showcase the restaurant. I learned fairly quickly, despite the vast variety of decor found in many restaurants, that once I completed a shot on a table or the bar that I was searching for yet another spot to avoid redundancy in the final set of images. It wasn't too long before I started looking at the actual chairs and seating of a restaurant's dining room as another optional location to place the compositions and I have been successful with the results. All the images on this post were shot using chairs or seating found within the restaurant which added compositional variety and interest in a couple of different ways.
As you can see in the lead image of this post as well with the images below that a restaurant's seating can offer many options of texture, color, pattern, shape or repetition. All of which are artistically important when creating visual interest. As a photographer you can zoom in tight to frame the dish. It's easy to use the elements of decor in a chair without actually showing to the viewer that it is actually a chair. If you learn to look around the room and not only see 'just a chair' but start viewing these as surfaces, and possible backgrounds and begin to question: Can I use that as a 'texture'? Does that 'color' compliment the dish? Will the 'shape' (or 'lines') of the chair add visual interest?…then you will be able to use these hidden treasures in your own successful food photography.
Another benefit of using chairs and seating as backgrounds for food photography is that when you place the final images of food taken on these surfaces around other environmental shots of the dining room itself, you will have a cohesive interplay between the images that work collectively as a successful 'set' of images.
Examples of complimenting 'Color' found in seating:
Examples of a chair's 'Shape, Texture, Line, and Repetition' used to create visual interest.
So there it is! An easy and effective way to improve your photography skills, simply by


text: There's just something special about horny pregnant chicks that makes them so desirable, especially to some men with fetishes. For one thing, their jugs no doubt are full of milk and their knocked up cunt just look wonderful whenever they spread their legs wide open. I guess it just goes to show that women still have the same (or probably even increased) sex drive during their pregnancy state. Take horny preggo Diamond here for instance, she simply starts with rubbing her clit and fingering her hot twat hole as she caresses her erect nipples on her lactose filled tits. It'll only take a moment before she starts moaning out of pleasure. Eventually, she'll reach a mind-blowing climax with a slippery cum soaked pussy and hard nipples. All this self induced erotic magic happens as she sits back comfortably on her nice leather couch and show off her big belly exquisitely.

Resource Center Dallas Executive Director and CEO Cece Cox this week accused Dallas Independent School District officials of instructing principals to ignore the reporting requirement in the school district's anti-bullying policy.
Speaking at a DISD board meeting Thursday morning, Dec. 1, Cox called board members that adopted the policy visionary, but gave the district a grade of "F" in implementing the policy.
Lambda Legal Community Educator Omar Narvaez also spoke at the Dec. 1 board meeting.
DISD passed the anti-bullying policy in November 2010, soon after a string of teens across the country committed suicide after having been repeatedly bullied at school. The Dallas policy was implemented more than six months before the Texas Legislature passed and Gov. Rick Perry signed a new statewide anti-bullying law.
Narvaez said that the Dallas policy was cited repeatedly in Austin as the anti-bullying bill made its way through the Legislature.
But he said that a year after the Dallas policy was adopted, only about a third of principals have been trained on the computer-based reporting system, that most schools do not have the system in place and even more do not know how to use it. [continue]

Everybody's favorite rock star from Mars, Charlie Sheen, is returning from Hollywood exile this month with a brand-new sitcom, FX's "Anger Management." And now that he's had a full year to process the public meltdown that led to his "Two and a Half Men" firing, he's gained a little much-needed perspective on the whole mess. "Clearly, a guy gets fired, his relationships are in the toilet, he's off on some f—ing tour, there's nothing 'winning' about any of that," Sheen admits in the new issue of Rolling Stone. "I was in total denial."
But Sheen's not in denial about his battles with substance abuse; in fact, he's open about the fact that he's not exactly clean and sober these days. "I don't see what's wrong with a few drinks. Mine's vodka. Straight, because I've always said that ice is for injuries, ha ha." (That may help explain the strange, oblique email he sent to TMZ this week in response to accusations he's still on drugs.)
As part of his rehabilitation tour, Sheen has also mended fences with ex Denise Richards, who's set to guest star on "Management." "He and I are like best friends now," Richards tells the magazine. "Confidants. He tells me everything." Sheen chimes in to add, "And we sleep in separate rooms. Everybody's going to want to know that, too." (We didn't really need to know that, Charlie, but we are grateful — if only for Denise's sake.)

AHPP Accepting Applications for Historic Preservation Grant
By: News ReleasePosted: Saturday, January 19, 2013
The Arkansas Historic Preservation Program, an agency of the Department of Arkansas Heritage, will accept applications for its Historic Preservation Restoration Grant and County Courthouse Restoration Subgrant programs through March 8, AHPP Director Frances McSwain announced today.
Two Historic Preservation Restoration Grant options are available for rehabilitation of historic structures in Arkansas:
* Option 1 grants of up to $10,000 are available to the owners of properties that are listed on the Arkansas Register of Historic Places or are non-contributing structures in National Register historic districts if the grant project will make the property eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and the owner follows through with the National Register listing process
* Option 2 grants of $10,000 or more are available to the owners of properties that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and owned by a not-for-profit organization or a local government.
County Courthouse Restoration Subgrants are available for preservation work at county courthouse buildings that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The program uses funds provided by the Arkansas Natural and Cultural Resources Council, which distributes money raised through the state Real Estate Transfer Tax.
Guidelines and applications for the Historic Preservation Restoration Grant and County Courthouse Restoration Subgrant programs can be downloaded from the AHPP web site at http://www.arkansaspreservation.org/preservation-services/grant-programs/; guidelines also can be acquired by writing AHPP Grants, 1500 Tower Building, 323 Center St., Little Rock, AR 72201. Requests also can be sent to the agency via fax at (501) 324-9184 or via e-mail at email@example.com. All applications must be delivered to the AHPP office by 4:30 p.m. on Friday, March 8, 2013; faxed or e-mailed applications will not be accepted.
The AHPP is the agency of the Department of Arkansas Heritage responsible for identifying, evaluating, registering and preserving the state's cultural resources. Other agencies are the Arkansas Arts Council, the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center, the Delta Cultural Center in Helena, the Old State House Museum, the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission and the Historic Arkansas Museum.

USB solutions specialist Future Technology Devices International Limited - FTDI has supplemented its portfolio of USB to serial interface products with new X-Chip series. X-Chip series consisting of 13 chips (7 types in various package options) complements the existing FT-R and FT-H series. New series supports a broad selection of interface types, such as basic UART, full UART, FIFO and I2C, as well as FTDI's proprietary FT1248 I/O (including enhanced SPI).
Through X-Chip, engineers are provided with a feature-rich USB 2.0 interface solution with a smaller size and a lower pin count. High level of integration, including integrated crystal and MTP (Multi-time programmable) memory for configuring and storing the device descriptors and an internal clock source, solves major board level concerns, such as better space utilization and reduced power consumption. Devices in the series are capable of data rates of up to 3.4 Mbits/s, while maintaining low power consumption, <8mA (typical) when fully active and <125 μA (typical) while in suspend mode
With recent amendments being made to the USB specification regarding more rapid charging of portable electronics devices, the X-Chip has built-in functionality to detect a charging port (battery charging detection – BCD, dedicated charging port – DCP) and cause a logic to switch from data transfer to charging mode. This feature means that detection does not have to be carried out by the system's microcontroller, thereby allowing it to focus fully on its core activities. The end result is a simpler detection process and the capability to charge at a higher current level which shortens the time required for battery charging. The devices in the X-Chip series are offered in compact SSOP, QFN and DFN packages. Each has an operational temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C. X-chip series has an internal 3.3V converter and supports 1.8 to 3.3V I/O voltages. As all the necessary USB support and bridging intelligence has been integrated into these devices and pre-validated, the expense, time and engineering resource needed to bring Full Speed USB connectivity into system designs is markedly reduced. FTDI provides support and royalty-free downloads for a wide selection of OS: Windows, Android, Mac OS, and Linux.
Overview of all new types will provide you the attached table, X-chip brochure and X-chips overview. Available are 7 basic types - FT200XD, FT201X, FT220X, FT221X, FT230X, FT231X and FT240X. FT200XD is the smallest one, in a tiny 10-pin DFN package. All other types are available in SSOP and QFN packages. Detailed description will provide you FT200XD, FT201X, FT220X, FT221X, FT230X, FT231X and FT240X datasheets. An example of an easy to use I2C/USB slave converter illustrates the picture below. Further details about battery charging you can find in the AN_175 application note. Together with these chips, FTDI has released a wide-selection of development modules. Also available are so-called breakout modules, providing the simplest method to connect to a USB host. You can choose from 4 types of breakout modules – UMFT200XD, UMFT201XB, UMFT220XB a UMFT230XB. Evaluation modules are larger than breakout modules, but provide access to all pins.

The Dangers of An Amateur Therapist With A Hidden Agenda
This past Sunday's episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey was a continuation of the "therapeutic trip to Miraval" that started on March 16, 2013. Unfortunately, it seems to have ended with an implosion.
There are bound to be flare ups when you mix a hot headed buffoon and his manipulative wife with an amateur therapist with a hidden agenda. Caroline Manzo is a master at using others to fight her self proclaimed enemies. She found the perfect little soldiers in Joe and Melissa Gorga since the Gorgas revel in blaming Teresa for every wrong ever done to anyone from the beginning of time.
If last night's flare up seemed disjointed, it's because once again the events leading up to the discussion were left on the editing floor.
On February 18, 2013 I attended the Milania Launch Party where Melissa and I discussed the cheating issues. Joe never said a word to me. Mario Petris told Joe that if he wanted to know about his wife, Joe should call Mario. Joe never said a word to him.
On February 28, 2013 I met Joe and Melissa at Chakra in Paramus to discuss the cheating issues at their request. We talked for hours. They tried to shut down any discussion about Melissa's cheating and tried to focus on who asked me to reveal the cheating. I refused their demands to implicate Teresa. We ended the dinner by agreeing to disagree but on relatively good terms.
After my meeting with Joe and Melissa at Chakra, Joe and Rich Wakile showed up at my husband's business to "talk man to man". They tried to entice my husband into "giving me more air time in future seasons by filming with their wives" if I agreed to their demands. Thanks but no thanks. As I said before I was already soured by the experience and it was only getting worse. I would not and will not sell my soul for anything or anyone.
While the drama with Melissa's cheating issues was unfolding there was another scandal that was rearing it's head and it was directed at Caroline Manzo. Without getting into specifics, Caroline incorrectly linked the issue to me instead of those who were really responsible.
So with all these backdoor dealings I wasn't surprised when Caroline, with the assistance of the Gorgas and editing, twisted the discussion into blaming Teresa by somehow claiming Teresa was pulling my strings. No one pulls my strings.
I still don't understand what Teresa was being blamed for doing – not confronting me? Here's the irony of that statement – Joe and Melissa were given far more opportunities to "confront me" and never got what they wanted (me to turn on Teresa). What more was Teresa supposed to do? How was Teresa supposed to stop Production from mandating that I attend events or speak the truth?
As far as the discussion at the Milania event being staged, that's bologna. I never spoke to Teresa between our January 31, 2013 night out at Belissimo and the February 18, 2013 Milania Launch party. The only thing that seemed staged was the way Caroline (1) cranked up Joe to blame Teresa (2) started up a discussion where Caroline and her husband could call me names and (3) set a series of events in place that led to my husband being assaulted by that animal. As Caroline was soon to learn unlike her I don't need anyone to be my mouthpiece.
I don't understand why RHONJ has resorted to using tweets out of context to substantiate an unrelated story line that Production wants to address.
Next time Joe Gorga uses one of my tweets from a year ago (10/17/12), he should look at the discussion that prompted the tweet; tell his manipulative wife to stop with her flame throwing blogs; and tell his wife's sisters to stop naming me. My tweet was in reply to Melissa and her sister. See the details of the tweet. Joe needs to take off the blinders and get it straight because the only person who doesn't want to admit what his wife is, is Joe Gorga.
I don't want to speculate on what was shown on the preview for next week other than to say:
- Neither my husband or I have ever made a negative comment about Laurita's child. We believe God gives special children to special parents. The only tweet that I have seen regarding Jacqueline Laurita's son came from a disgusting twitter account that Melissa Gorga and her sister encouraged.
- When I was asked who invited me to the Milania Launch party, I responded "your sister." I was told that Joe and Melissa were calling me a stalker even though they knew that Production was controlling my appearances.
Give it a rest, it's getting old.
The official Grand Opening of my new salon Le Chateau Allure will be on September 21, 2013. You are all invited to stop by for services or to say Hello.

The Launch Heard Round the World
This past Sunday's episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey showcased the Milania Hair Care Launch Party held on February 18, 2013.
I was invited to the event by Teresa Giudice when Jan and I met Teresa, Kim D and Jennifer Dalton for drinks weeks earlier. My attendance was confirmed by production who advised that I was invited "on camera" and my attendance was mandatory.
Production was aware that I had been disappointed (and disillusioned) during the December filming of Posche Holiday party and as a result I had refused to attend Kim D's Jewelry party and the Sushi Lounge dinner. As I indicated earlier, I will not be humiliated or used by anyone. After a sit down with Production, I agreed to attend future events (including girls' night at Bellisimo, Milania Launch Party and additional specified events).
At the time of the Launch event, I was in the process of renovating and opening my new salon, so I did not carry any hair care products. I was told that I would be attending the Launch event to discuss topics regarding Melissa Gorga raised at previous events.
I was required to provide Production with the names of all those who would be attending with me well in advance. I attended the Launch event with my friends Will Love, Paula Henna Queen, Mario Petris & his girlfriend Clara. I have known Mario for over 20 years and he is well acquainted with Melissa Gorga.
When we arrived to the event, Me and my friends were escorted to the side until Jan finished filming. I was then ushered over to film with Teresa and Melissa.
The friend / acquaintance issue with Teresa was raised at the December Posche Holiday party. Let me set the record straight: the word "friend" is used to define a wide range of relationships. To me, a friend is someone who you contact on a regular basis, while an acquaintance is a casual relationship. I consider Teresa an "acquaintance" because even though we know each other, I don't speak to her on a regular basis. My husband and I have had multiple telephone and text conversations with Teresa. When Teresa commented that she simply sees me at events, I added "at events that I am invited to attend." I didn't want to leave the impression that I show up randomly for events; I am invited or mandated to attend.
My discussion with Melissa was enlightening. When Melissa proclaimed that she didn't know me, I proceeded to list in detail how absurd her statement was. She backed off her position that she didn't know me. Melissa's backpeddling was edited out. I was asked what I knew of Melissa's extramarital activities and I answered the questions that were posed to me – I wasn't going to lie for anyone. As far as who asked me to provide the information, I was not permitted to answer the question at the time – Melissa Gorga was fully aware of the restriction, so her insistence that I provide the information was strictly to make Teresa look guilty. It is unfortunate that the entire exchange wasn't aired.
Let me set the record straight regarding Mario Petris: he and his girlfriend attended the event with me, they were both on the guest list. Mario shares several mutual friends with Melissa, including Mike Chic and George Flex. The one and only exchange that Mario had with any cast member was to hand Joe Gorga his business card and tell him "If you want to know the truth about your wife, call me." Joe Gorga said nothing. At no time did Mario tell anyone that "he hurts people." So once again it appears that Production is hard at work spinning actual events into fiction.

It's All Greek to Me
My first blog and here goes. . .
Who knew that my obsession with shopping would lead me to the crazy land of the Real Housewives of New Jersey.
I met Kim D years ago while shopping at her store. We became friends instantly and she in turn started coming to my hair salon. Soon after, Kim D hired me to style the models for her shows. That is how I met the ladies from The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Before I ever heard of Kim D or Teresa Giudice, before I ever heard of Bravo TV or The Real Housewives of New Jersey, I was friends with Jan – a friendship we maintain to this day. I also knew Melissa Marco (now Gorga). Melissa and I shared mutual friends – friendships I continue to maintain. Melissa frequented the salon I eventually bought. She came into the salon regularly and even had her bridal party styled by my girlfriends and staff. I was puzzled when Melissa claimed she never met me. Then again, Melissa seems to deny knowing a lot of people from her past. Just wait and see who else she denies knowing.
But I digress. . .
I have styled TV personalities since 1992 so I felt comfortable with the ladies from the Real Housewives, the Mobwives and Jerseylicious. When an opportunity presented itself to film on Real Housewives of New Jersey to advance my business, I took it – who wouldn't want free advertising for their business? Right?
All I can say is hindsight is 20/20.
It is unfortunate that some must say and do things that they should never be asked to do "to put food on the table." Fortunately, feeding my children is not tied to selling my soul to a TV show. There is a huge disconnect from the truth, what is filmed and the edited version of the show.
During Season 5 filming, I was "invited" by producers AND the person hosting each event I attended. By invited I mean asked / told to attend the event, either verbally, in writing or both.
Even though I was present during the events, the edited versions that have been aired to date are deceiving (whether intentionally or unintentionally).
For instance, drinks with Teresa, Kim D, Jennifer Dalton, Jan and me at Bellissimo's: I was told to bring my friend Jan to the filming to discuss Melissa Gorga (a continuation of the discussion started at Kim D's holiday party), not Milania Hair Care Products. Filming lasted close to 4 hours. The edited version does not accurately reflect the theme of the conversations. Teresa did leave the table when she became uncomfortable with the conversation.
There is so much more but I will wait to see what is shown to give you behind the scenes look at the Real Housewives of New Jersey. I cannot stress enough that what you are being shown is not necessarily reality or even what was filmed - so pay close attention and ask questions!
My new salon Le Chateau Allure will open on August 1, 2013. You are all invited to attend. I understand the Real Faux will be in attendance.
Until next time, I remain

Big Tree Big Sleep Furniture
Quick Links:Since 1989, Big Tree Big Sleep has been an industry leader in the home futon business. Looking out on the expanse of the burgeoning futon industry, Big Tree Big Sleep saw that the only manufacturers out there were small, boutique craftsmen who made one part or the other, but that nobody was making the whole product of futon frame, mattress, and cover. Big Tree Big Sleep understood that there had to be a better way, a way to provide customers with a better buying experience and a better product all in one go. And that's when this already-experienced manufacturer of fine solid oak furniture moved into the business and invented the modern Western futon in the process.
It was Big Tree Big Sleep who first raised the futon frame to sofa height, turning the futon into something more than just a bed replacement, but a flexible, multi-purpose furnishing capable of serving in a variety of roles with spectacular ease. With frame available in pine, oak, and other hardwoods, Big Tree Big Sleep has a futon solution to suit every budget, so that every home across the United States can feature its own luxurious futon. And Big Tree Big Sleep has futons in every material, including all-cotton, foam and cotton, foam and cotton with an innerspring, and visco-elastic (memory foam), so you're always getting exactly the product you want to make your home fit your own idea of comfort. Big Tree Big Sleep is here to bring you the best futons out there, no matter what.

Sound Test
Pulling out the TES 1350A Sound Level Meter, we find ourselves quickly yelling into the top of it to see how loud we can be.
After five minutes of that we get a bit more serious and place the device two CM away from the fan on the card to find the maximum noise level of the card when idle (2D mode) and in load (3D mode).
Not only does our MSI R9 290X 4GB Twin Frozr Gaming OC run cooler, but it also manages to run a few dB quieter.
It's not a huge amount, but this is an overall strong improvement over the reference cooler when combined with the decent drop in temperature.

Gold Coast 4D Longboard
Don't pay full price.
The deck itself is pretty good, and the 3d graphics are an interesting novelty. The trucks on this suck though. The bushings are rock hard, so if you actually want to turn, you have to loosen them all the way. When this happens, the hanger actually comes off of the bushing. The hanger diameter might also be too small, as there is some slop in the bearings.

Farm Advisory April 1996
The planting season is upon Iowa farmers. Unfortunately, this promising time almost always brings a rash of telemarketing scams involving phony pesticides and other products. Con-artists know that farmers are buying inputs: It's prime time for "rip-offs."
The typical scam works like this:
A farmer receives a call from an out-of-state company promising a fantastic deal on a pesticide. "It works just as well as the name-brands," the caller promises, "and we'll throw in some free gloves if you place a big order today." The telephone solicitor pressures the farmer to make a snap-decision in order to lock in the extraordinary price.
That kind of solicitation should ring all kinds of warning bells: an unex- pected out-of-state call . . . claims that the product is "just as good as such-and-such" . . . free gifts . . . high pressure to buy right now . . . unbelievably low prices . . . demand for immediate payment by credit card or cashier's check.
Those all are sure signs of a con-artist at work. Just hang up!
When the product is delivered (if it ever is delivered), the farmer realizes why the pesticide could be sold at such a great price. The product usually contains about 1% weed killer and 99% inert ingredients such as water or even petroleum oil. So- called "guarantees" turn out to be worthless, too. The farmer has simply been "conned."
The Attorney General's Farm Division is working hard to put these con-artists out of business in Iowa and get farmers' money back. We have filed lawsuits against alleged scams. But the only true protection is for farmers themselves to avoid being cheated in the first place. Remember these tips:
If you have been cheated by a fraudulent scheme in the sale of farm products, then please:

The new Bailey range will be officially launched at the Melbourne Leisurefest show at Sandown Racecourse from October 6-9, where new Victorian agent Canterbury Caravans will have six vans on display, from the entry-level Orion, mid-spec Pegasus and range-topping Unicorn model ranges.
Established in 1948, Bailey Caravans is the second biggest caravan manufacturer in the UK, building around 9000 vans a year from its state-of-the-art factory in Bristol. Most of its models utilise an innovative, high strength construction system called Alu-Tech, which incorporates just five panels for the body shell in order to reduce weight and improve weather resistance.
Adrian Van Geelen from Bailey Australia said that Bailey Caravans "was the only (UK) manufacturer that can actually put a station wagon on the roof of a van... and they're the only one that has their vans tested at the Millgrove Proving Ground". Since the first batch of Bailey vans arrived in the country a few weeks ago, only a few minor changes, including new tyres and some different appliances, have been made in order to achieve ADR compliance. Leading European RV brands including Al-Ko, Dometic, and Thetford, have also been involved to ensure the caravans are suitable for local conditions."The goal for us is that the vans will be exported from the UK fully compliant," Van Geelen said. According to Van Geelen, the advantages of the award-winning Bailey caravans are that they are "500 to 600kg lighter than anything else on the market, they're competitively priced and they're arguably the best built and finished (caravans) in the world"."The appeal with us is even our biggest (21ft) caravan can be towed with a Holden Commodore," he said. "The reasons to bring them out (to Australia) are fairly self evident. There's a niche in the market; people don't have to go out and buy a four-wheel drive, so you don't have a $140,000 investment of $70,000 in a van and $70,000 in a car going down the road, you can use your normal car."
Van Geelen said the stylish, feature-packed Bailey vans would also appeal to those buyers who might have traditionally opted for a custom-built luxury van."When you see the finish and fitment and the size of some of the bathrooms and ensuites and so on, we're in another level again," he said.
Pricing will be "more than competitive" with locally-built vans with similar layouts and appointments."The entry level will be in the low $40,000s, up to about mid-$50,000s for the top of the range," he said.See the Bailey Australia website for further details.

This shirt looked too much like a mans shirt - and I felt like I was being slowly strangled while wearing it - but it's nice and comfortable everywhere else, so I made it more "womanly"
Start with your t-shirt (I got this one ages ago at a secondhand shop for a couple of dollars) and work out where you want your neck line to be. I put mine on and used a fabric marker in front of a mirror to eyeball it
Using my Pinking Shears, I cut the neck out and I've chosen to alter the sleeves aswell, so off with them !
I zigzag stitched around where I'd cut to give it a slightly scolloped and raw looking edge
I then pinned elastic (I used 6mm Braided Elastic) around the arms and neck - again I eyeballed it to get a slightly ruffled look
Ta Daa ! New look for my previously shapeless t-shirt

My office has always had an open-door policy and citizens often come in unannounced and ask to see me. I am always happy to oblige if I am in the office.
Bradley County offers its citizens several ways to keep track of what their government is doing and how their tax dollars are being spent. The county's website is one of the primary tools used to accomplish this.
If you have not visited the website I urge you to log on to www.bradleyco.net. You will find a wide variety of information which is designed to make it easier for you to conduct your business with county government.
The website is divided into five categories which include: Living, Licensing, Government, Departments and County Mayor. Each tab has a drop-down menu to let you select the information you need.
If you have an interest in the current Bradley County budget, simply click on the "Departments" tab, then click on "Accounting." The entire county budget can be downloaded and printed if needed. Previous county budgets are archived on the site to allow anyone to see how their tax dollars were spent over a five-year period.
The mission of the accounting department is to provide quality financial expertise and information to elected officials, staff and citizens of Bradley County. This includes preparation and monitoring of annual departmental and divisional budgets, as well as payments, expenditures, reports and fiscal documents required by the county, state and federal governments. The county's books are audited annually by the Tennessee Comptroller's Office.
The "Living" tab lets you access information about property taxes, voter information, the county recycling drop-off centers, links to schools, the Chamber of Commerce and more. The "Government" tab will provide links to websites for the city of Cleveland, Charleston, state of Tennessee and the County Commission.
The "Licensing" tab gets a lot of traffic from people who need information about marriage and business licenses, as well as driver's licenses, car tags, and fish and game licenses. But the Licensing menu item that gets the most traffic is "Building Codes and Permits." The staff in the building permit and inspection department work hard to provide you with all the information necessary to get you through the building permit process easily and efficiently. You will also find a helpful reading list as well as current county building codes for review before you begin the permit process.
If you need to contact one of the county departments, simply click on the "Contact Us" tab at the bottom of the home page. There are 26 phone numbers and email addresses that will put you in direct contact with personnel in each area, from Accounting to Veterans Services.
The newest addition to the county's Internet capability is the wireless service at the Courthouse. Wireless access is now available to the general public and is proving to be especially beneficial to Realtors, attorneys and other professionals. The wireless service allows anyone to look up deed records or other important documents which are stored electronically at the Courthouse.
Please check out the county website. If you have feedback, I'd like to hear it. Log on to www.bradleyco.net and click on the "Contact Us" tab at the bottom of the page. I am always looking for ways to better serve the citizens of Bradley County.

Jett Black, To Hell and Back (Fist Music). Jett Black (aka Jeff Arnold) set off a flurry of Amber Alerts last winter after he and his namesake band abruptly dropped out of sight. This past August, however, the act re-emerged with a revamped lineup and an updated sound that owes a sizable debt to the Reverend Horton Heat and Velvet Revolver. Hellfire and Brylcreem, anyone? -- Herrera
Local 33, Hearts That Bend (Self-released). Eric Lowe denies being under the influence of John Mellencamp. But listening to Hearts That Bend, you have to wonder if he might be fibbing a bit. Sure, the Local 33 leader probably owes a bigger debt to Son Volt, but the wheat-whipped rusticity of Mellencamp's best work can be heard in Hearts' rugged, earthy country rock. -- Heller
The Maybellines, A La Carte (Best Friends). The Maybellines' formula hasn't changed much since their first release five years ago. But the band has gotten ever better at exploring the boundaries of its self-imposed playpen. A La Carte is as sugary and breezy as its predecessors, but within the confines of twee indie pop, the disc manages to plumb stunning depths and pathos. Now, that's a sweet trick. -- Heller
Meese, The Oh No EP (Self-released). Patrick Meese previously issued most of these songs on his solo debut, I Don't Buy It. Since then, however, he's assembled a band and rerecorded the primarily piano-driven tunes, arriving at a sound that's less precious than that of Sufjan Stevens but every bit as spectral. Keep your eye on this extraordinary talent. -- Herrera
John Nathan, Party of One (Self-released). Outlaw-country artist John Nathan might take satisfaction in seeing an old girlfriend who looks like hell. But he's more apt to buy a shot for the nerve-jangled war veteran one bar stool away. When he's seated alone, as he is here, he's at his storytelling best, spinning candid weepers capable of making Roy Orbison or Hank Williams laugh until they cry. -- La Briola
Nightingale, Nightingale (Self-released). Not for the hard of hearing or the faint of heart, Nightingale's stellar EP blends walls of deafening feedback, dissonance, buzz and hum into a swirling, psychedelic dream state. My Bloody Valentine? More like My Bloody Eardrums. But there's an odd, soothing quality to all of the melodic, tar-thick, two-chord drones, making the band (newly rechristened as Moccasin) well worth a listen. -- La Briola
Oakhurst, Dual Mono (Big Bender Records). A spirited acoustic hoedown in an overcrowded cabin near Walsenburg launched Dual Mono, Oakhurst's debut full-length. Clean and off the cuff, it's rowdy, warm and inviting. Essentially a roundup of live first takes, the rustic gem captures five veteran roots-rockers injecting bluegrass into an old-timey mountain sound. Put another log on the fire. -- La Briola
Oblio Duo, Oblio Duo (Self-released). Why hasn't Denver heard of Oblio Duo before? Because unlike legions of mediocre yet inexplicably egotistic songwriters, Steven Lee Lawson and Will Duncan don't seem to really grasp the enormity of their own genius. But they sure know how to put it into song. Pray that the first time you hear this disc, it's pouring rain outside. You'll never be the same. -- Heller
The Omens, Destroy the ESP (Hipsville). How do the Omens succeed where a half-million garage-rock pretenders over the past few years have laughably failed? Simple: by dropping the pose and clawing their fucking guts out. Trends come and (thankfully) go, but ESP's primal scream will have a half-life of forever. -- Heller
The Photo Atlas, No, Not Me, Never (Morning After Records). No, Not Me, Never, the second release from Morning After Records, is by far one of the year's finest discs. Resting on temperamental faultlines of rumbling bass runs and frenetic drumming, the act's joyously erratic rhythm section grinds together, creating fissures that vocalist/guitarist Alan Andrews soars over with his high-pitched shrills. The effect is seismic on the dance floor. -- Herrera
Rraahh Foundashun, Tha Revolushun (Shunpowa Recordings). On their third release, Keo, Shunfist, King Mississippi and the rest of the Foundashun dish out Native Tongues-like rhymes and tight production values that put the emphasis on drums and influences like Hubert Laws. Together they radiate a righteous, cosmically sophisticated vibe. -- Mayo
Strangers Die Everyday, They Have Already Defeated Us at What We Know Best (Self-released). Being moved to tears by music is the lamest of cliches. But it happens, and Strangers Die Everyday's debut full-length is proof. Stretched to the point of distortion by classical strings (cello, violin) on one side and a post-rock rhythm section (electric bass, drums) on the other, this instrumental group's tension and melody tap the deepest wellspring of emotion, all without saying a word. -- Heller
Jon Swift, Fresh Fitted (Self-released). Jon Swift, who also performs with the Chronophonic, is backed on Fresh Fitted by a stellar band consisting of keyboardist Matt Piazza (from Yo Flaco!), bassist Josh Fairman (of Kinetix) and percussionists Johnny Schmidt and Scott Mast. The result is a laid-back mix of introspective rap, smooth soul and nighttime keyboards. -- Mayo
Tarantella, Esquéletos (Alternative Tentacles). Recorded by Bob Ferbrache, Denver's most-sought-after recording engineer, Tarantella's astonishing debut not only features the studio whiz on guitar, but spotlights several other luminaries from his extended family of absinthe-swilling hicksters. A beguiling blend of ancient folk ballads and spaghetti Westerns fleshed out by the trilingual Kal Cahoone, Esquéletos intoxicates. -- La Briola

Any Mississippi gardeners who overseed their lawns with rye in winter? I am undecided. Perennial vs annual? Does it die naturally in spring or do you have to kill it? That would defeat the purpose of doing it for the reason I'm doing it: organic weed control and feeding the regular lawn from it's clippings when I mow. How often do you have to mow in North MS.? My regular lawn is predominantly bermuda, some zoysia. do any of you overseed with something else? fescue? laurie |

Laurie, you'll have to mow fairly often IF you get a good stand of rye over your grass. Rather than do that, why not put down a good pre-emergent? This will absolutely stop the cool weather weeds in your lawn. You put it out with a fertilizer spreader. There are alot of different brands. Look for one that says "crabgrass preventer" or that controls things like henbit. They will control way more than that. I use them in my flowerbeds too if I don't care about having volunteer flowers. It's time to be putting it out now, as it stops the seeds from germinating but doesn't kill them once they do. Depending on the size of your lawn a thin topdressing of compost or manure in the spring will work absolute miracles on your grass. |

I will try the compost in spring. I also heard just used coffee grounds works too. I don't use herbicides or pesticides, except Amdro bait when needed for a bad fire ant situation. laurie |
Laurie, I prefer perennial rye over annual, because it doesn't grow as fast which means you don't have to mow as often. Costs almost twice as much, but to me it's worth it. Both will die when late spring heat sets in. |
- Posted by mississippirose 8 (My Page) on Thu, Mar 5, 09 at 18:27
I have used fescue to overseed an area that is mostly St Augustine. I have done this for years to help the St Augustine fill in and prevent erosion in the winter. This has helped alot so I highly recommend it. I also use perenial rye on higher traffic areas (dogs running) & it's worth it.Both fescue and perenial rye will stick around a long time and not die out completely where I am (Jackson). Hope this helps. |

We're meeting tomorrow night at 7p in the CS building (room 204) at Mercer. Our guest speaker is Glen Gordon, the Developer Evangelist at Microsoft. Come out to talk to Glen and to eat a snack or two.
"Getting started with Windows 8 development and HTML" The next version of Windows, code-named Windows 8, will provide unprecedented opportunities for developers, designers and startups. The programming model for building compelling, connected, native apps that harness the full power of the PC will allow HTML5 and JavaScript developers to build native applications on par with Microsoft's traditional technologies. And the new marketplace for distributing these applications gives you a potential paying customer base of more than a billion people. In this talk, you'll get a hands-on introduction to the next version of Windows, and see how the UI was designed to work seamlessly with a diversity of devices and form factors. We'll cover how to build and design Metro-styled applications, and connect you with tons of resources so you can capitalize on this new opportunity that brings your skills to the next level.

Using threads to increase application performance of high latency operations
Many modern IO APIs feature Asynchronous IO routines which can be used to increase responsiveness and throughput, but sometimes we have to use synchronous interfaces. I'm going to present a simulation of a real problem I encountered communicating with a peripheral device and demonstrate several incrementally improved solutions which result in overlapping much of the latency for each operation. Additionally I will present a special purpose message queue created for this purpose and demonstrate its benefits over other message queues in this application.
Speaker bio:
Nathan Moore (Zack's brother) currently works at Mercer Engineering Research Center (MERC) in the embedded software division. Before that he worked on firmware for Smart Grid devices.
The meeting will be in the Mercer University Computer Science building.
The street address for Mercer is 1400 Coleman AVE, Macon, GA
That should bring you to the North entrance. From there try using this PDF of campus.

More practice with doubling numbers and using arrays to understand multiplication, but it is now down to the serious task of learning 'tables', especially the 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x and 10x tables. Once these have been learned children can move on to mentally multiplying larger numbers by 4, 5 and 10.
A great way to show how multiplication works is by using arrays. 3 rows of 4 means 3 lots of 4. This means 4 x 3 or 3 x 4.
Doubling is coming up again. This time it's all multiples of 5. (Just remember that double 5 is 10.)
Progressively harder doubling and halving; from teens, to 2-digit multiples of 5 to 3-digit multiples of 10.
Multiplying by ten is easy if you know what you are doing; each digit moves one place to the left. Avoid saying 'add a nought'.
More multiplying by 10 and 100. Probably one of our easier sets of pages.
Multiplying whole tens by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10. Excellent for putting knowledge of tables into practice.
This is where we make real headway with learning the 2x, 5x and 10x tables. Make sure they are recited as a whole and not just saying the answers (which is just counting up).
More practice with multiplying by 2, 3 5 and 10.
When multiplying 2-digit numbers 'in your head' it is often best to start with the tens.
A quick check to see how well these tables have been mastered.
A further set of pages looking at 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x and 10x tables.
Try 3 times table questions without the help of a number line.
Even more 'tables' practice.
Fill in the missing numbers in these 3 times table sentences.
Draw lines from the shaded numbers to the numbers that are three times bigger.
Find pairs of numbers in the three times table that make these answers.
Move round the star in a clockwise direction, putting the number that is 3 times bigger in the empty circles.
Learning the three times table up to 12 x 3.
More on the three times table up to 12
Find pairs of numbers in the three times table that make these answers.
Put numbers into the boxes to make the number sentences correct.
It is important to learn the 4x table, but meanwhile it can be worked out by doubling.
A further look at the 4x table up to 4 x 12.
More work on the 4x table up to 4 x 12.
The answers are given, just complete the 6x table!
A different and rather creepy crawly way to use the 6x table.
See how quickly you can answer these multiplication questions (up to 12)
A variety of written questions which need a good knowledge of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x and 10x tables to answer quickly.
The first set of tables to practise as fast as possible.
More tables squares to complete as fast as possible.
Our third set of tables squares. At this stage we are just looking at 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x and 10x tables, so not too bad!
Our final set of tables squares to complete. These should be easy by now!
Starting to learn the 8x table.
Work out possible combinations of numbers to complete the 8x table.
Complete the 8x table questions as quickly and accurately as possible.
Word problems for multiplication and introducing the term 'product', which means multiply.
A first look at the 'grid method' of written multiplication.
A look at written methods of multiplication, keeping to small numbers.
Standard written method of short multiplication, just using the 4x table.
Using the standard written method of short multiplication with small numbers.
Written multiplication just using the 3x table.

As I mentioned on Monday, we spent the weekend in Moganshan National Park. And it was wonderful.
Getting there was a little comical. We didn't have our plans 100% accurately sorted, but thanks to 3 Chinese co-workers headed out for a weekend sales call we were able to share at taxi and get to the town below the park. Then we hopped into another taxi and wound and wound and wound our way through opaque fog to get to the village. That was a little comical, too, since we didn't exactly know where the hotel was, but we finally stopped at a hotel that was open and visible through the cloud bank, and the girl inside pointed at some old stone stairs, saying "just go up." So we did.
Our lodging had a grand curving staircase with old-school hotel carpet and old photos of mountain scenes and a Royal Tennenbaums vibe. A friendly clerk in pink floral pajamas greeted us. We went next door to The Lodge and the manager from Lithuania let us order food even though we were four minutes past kitchen close.
The rest of the weekend was deep gulps of fresh air, hiking up and down the steep sides of hills, swatting a few mosquitoes, never finding the temple we looked for, but enjoying all the fresh air and vigor. We spent a good amount of time walking through a bamboo forest, which is--no way!--a forest that is really giant grass. When we looked up the ridge, the top of the "tree"-line was feathery like the top of a prairie. So bizarre. The interior of the bamboo forest feels spacious, there are less branches than a regular-tree forest, and there isn't as much undergrowth.
Paradise is only a few hours away, so I'm sure we'll go back soon. Photos below.
P.S. Have you ever hiked in a bamboo forest?
