The problematic scenario is the following:
There are two DHCP servers serving the same set of subnets. For each of the subnets which is being served by both the servers there are two scopes one for each server. The scopes are configured in a way that the active address range in one is in the exclusion range of the other. This way we make sure that a particular IP address is not distributed independently of each other. Now there is a small problem if there are reservations. If the admin has configured the reservations in only one of the scopes then he is on for a surprise. The surprise is that the client for whom you have configured the reservation might get a dynamic IP address from the other DHCP server. This can happen in case the DISCOVER sent by the client reaches the server which does not have reservations first. Thus the essential reason for having a reservation is defeated.
The proper way to handle this scenario is: First configure the scope such that the active address range for both the DHCP servers in question is mutually exclusive. Then write a netsh script for the reservations. This script file (let's call it reservations.txt) would contain for each reservation an entry like:
dhcp server 10.0.0.1 scope 10.0.0.0 add reservedip 22.214.171.124 <MAC ADDRESS>
Now run this script in the first server 10.0.0.1 by typing:
Netsh exec reservations.txt
After this has been done, you might want to use a word processor to replace the IP address of the server 10.0.0.1 to the IP address of the second DHCP server (say 10.0.0.2).
Once this replacement has been done, you can run the script in the second server. Actually the scripts for both the servers can be run from any place from which there is network connectivity to the DHCP servers. This is because almost most of the operations done through netsh is remotable.
Now for the tough part. If you do have two scopes like what I have mentioned and you did not duplicate the reservations then you have to do the following:
On the DHCP server where you have configured the reservations, you can execute this command for each of the scopes from which you need to export the reservations.
netsh dhcp server <serverIPAddress> scope <scopeAddress> dump>dump.txt
This will dump all the configuration settings for this scope. At the bottom of the dumped text file, you can see the reservations being dumped. Just copy this reservation settings to a new file say "exportedreserv.txt".
Append to this file exportedreserv.txt the reservation settings from each of the other scopes.
Now on the target machine, do a
netsh exec exportedreserv.txt
You should be done by now. I know it is not completely automatic, but it does save a lot of effort.
If you have any questions please ask me. And also try to leave some comments (I know this is moderated) as I would like to know if this blog has any takers.
I didn't try but i think that this should work...
Good way, thank yuo!!!
Saved me from manually recreating a lot of reservations!
Thanks :-)
What if you have multiple scopes on both servers is there an option to set the reservations to a specific scope?
Netsh exec <scope> reservations.txt
does this work?
What would be the syntax?
Information was very helpful. Had to modify scope to be large than Class C. Had to remove old scope. The commands allowed me to import all my reservations without having to input them by hand.

I think there will most likely be a new opening.
I think there will most likely be a new opening.
Hmmm, i'm not sure..
On one hand, I can see a new opening because its technically a new saga.. but on the other hand, there's still so many unanswered questions about the current one. Primeape?
OR Playthrough - Lilycove City
This won't change often.. I play through the games slowly..
It's almost bluntly obvious they will, hoping to see Charizard kick some booty while Kingler uses Crabhammer.
I hope we get one. New openings are always welcome in my book. They're refreshing in a way. I can't wait 'til "Pokemon Black and White: Adventures In Unova" starts in the dub so we get a new one. Do I think we'll get one in Japan? I can't really say. Do I hope so? Heck yeah!
Currently writing: The Missing Link!
Chapters posted: 10
Please read and review. I'll be eternally grateful.
I like Be an Arrow but Meloetta's dance ending got stale quickly. So yeah I hope we get new opening and ending.
It's beyond obvious we will since the N arc is being described as a new chapter. The current opening has nothing to do with N so that makes it even more obvious.
One thing people should note though that this will likely be the last BW opening we get, so I'd imagine it's gonna be something like the "Greatest Everyday," which was the last opening for DP.
The "Greatest Everyday" gave us team spoilers so this one should too.
I'm sure we'll get a new Opening theme, but just you wait. Certain people will complain if it only includes a few spoilers and they'll swear that it'll change in the future to include new spoilers just like they said when we got the BW2 Opening. It's always one excuse or another; it's a cycle that will repeat itself until the end of time.
I think its clear will get a new one some time soon, maybe not at the start of the N arc but soon. The league is over now, the last one was mostly league and new Pokemon rivals so fourth, they can't keep that any more. They need to add N in and Ash V.S N/Team Plasma shots maybe few bits of Team Rocket along side Ash flying on his Charizard, that I'd love =]
A close family member of mine died today, I put this in my sign as respect for him
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama. Endou fan-Inazuma Eleven.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
I like Be An Arrow but we're obviously going to get a new one. I hope we get an actual good ending this saga though.
Lord I hope so -_-. I would like to wipe all existence of Kotetsu from the anime if possible.
I there's a new opening I hope it will be as epic as "Ready, Go!", "Challenger" and "Battle Frontier".
IGN: Carlos
I hope we get a new opening and it be something as epic as 'Born to Be a Winner' with Ash riding Charizard and all. Gone were the days when the openings used to epic. I wouldn't mind seeing some kind of action like that in the opening.
P.S.: I do know that most of the action sequences were dub only but that doesn't mean the original stuff can't be like that.
The pillars thing could be the animé OP-staff taking liberties with the Undella Bay arc designs..
Or at least that Riolu for a Lucario.. -.-
Nope, previous announcement and actual airing were four weeks apart.. So there is indeed still time. But it should be done somewhere this week, otherwise the doubting game is on.
Couldn't care less about Adventures in Unova.. I doubt they can make a fitting title track to that..
To be completely honest, it was what we were accustomed to.. We love it.. xD
Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is. YOLO! <- Click the link and daw.. -.-
As long as Kotetsu isn't in the new opening I'm good.
Let's get back on topic, I think Ash will Juniper all but Pikachu after meeting N
Confirmed Generation VI:
Chespin, Fennekin, Froakie, Xerneas, Yveltal, Sylveon, Pancham, Fletchling, Helioptile, Gogoat, Noivern, Vivillon, Talonflame, Skrelp, Clauncher, Spewpa, Scatterbug, Litleo, Flabébé, Honedge, Pangoro, Inkay, Malamar, Spritzee, Swirlix, Skiddo, Bunnelby, Dedenne, Furfrou, Quilladin, Braixen, Frogadier, Tyrunt, Amaura, Meowstic, Pyroar, Aurorus, Tyrantrum, Doublade
I don't beleive there will be a new opening...I really don; think so. I think the scenes will just be edited.
Its been only 24 episodes...how many episodes did we have for the first "season?" lol
Opening change, thats it. At least, in my opinion.
When refering to learning..."In other words, groups are not where ideas are born. Groups are where ideas are evaluated."
My eyes! (my eyes!) are filled with curiosity! You think! (You think!) that you have power over me! In this life! (This life!) Theres no room for you and me! So turn around and face the day with me!
They might just replace scenes, rather than change the opening. All the league stuff will be gone obviously, but the scene with Ash's Pokemon at Oak's was way too involved and relevant to be removed. I mean we didn't see ANY of Ash's old Pokemon in BW2, so why should it be removed? The N saga will hopefully bring back more than just Charizard.

Out there, hopefully, is a collector of Costus or Gingers that can give these two plants a name.
The first one has very small leaves, for a ginger. The second has a trunck, with branches going off of it. The third photo is a close view of the stem/trunk. |
Here is a link that might be useful: My Costus photos
Follow-Up Postings:
I think your 2nd one might actually be a Tapeinochilus?? Are you interested in trading cuttings/plants of both of them for any other gingers? |

It is very difficult to to Customs, to ship any plants without out approval in/out of Costa Rica.Sorry! I have also been advised to wait until a bloom appears to name them. |
The first photo looks like Costus Stenophyllus (Bamboo Ginger), native to your Costa Rica, but reportedly becoming somewhat scarce in the wild. If the picture is that of Stenophyllus, it will get several feet tall and the stems have alternating bands of either green/brown with red or dark brown. This particular Costus blooms from the base. I don't recognize the second plant in the second and third photo. Steve |
The first is a Costus, but it doesn't look like C. stenophyllus to me, the leaves are too wide. It's hard to say which one it is without a bloom, though. Does it stay small like that or is it just a young plant? The second is Dichorisandra thyrsiflora, or Blue Ginger, which is not really a true ginger at all, but a relative of the Wandering Jew. |

I am having trouble with small appliances dying and running very hot. Particularly hair appliances! Before moving to this house my expensive flat iron lasted four years. I went through three of the same reliable model the first year we lived here, and finally gave up and bought something less expensive, and since then I still have to replace them frequently because they stop working. I know very little about electrical work, but the outlets in our bathrooms are all basic outlets, not the kind with the reset switch. I have also had two iPhone cords melt while just plugged into the wall in my bedroom in the last 6 months, without anything else plugged into the outlet. The power cords on my MacBook and HP laptop run extremely hot when plugged into my bedroom outlets- like so hot my kids are afraid to be near them - but I know it's not an issue with the actual laptops because they both have excellent performance specs. A new issue is that the both laptops will randomly show that they aren't plugged in, like I need to flip the circuit, but the circuit isn't flipped. Every time this happens I just switch outlets, but later if I plug something back into the outlet that wasn't working it is suddenly working again all on it's own. I know it's not the computers or power cords because it happens on two different computers and on one of them I switched out the power cord. A couple of years ago there was light flickering in the bathroom (same one with hair appliances dying), and then one day I noticed melting around the light switch. I really wanted to call an electrician, but my husband is pretty handy (and maybe a little overconfident since he's been able to tackle plumbing and other big repair projects without any problems and is really all around awesome about fixing problems around the house:), so he replaced the whole unit and we haven't had any lights flickering in any other rooms. I just lost another hair appliance, and I'm getting fed up. I guess I'm wondering if I'm abusing our outlets, or if this warrants me being annoying and pushing my husband about getting an electrician to check it out? Could any of this be preventing by surge protectors? I assume if the issue is electrical surges, though, wouldn't that trip a breaker? (see, I really don't know anything about electrical stuff) If it matters, we do not have any of these problems with the outlets in our kitchen or office area, which have at least twice as many appliances and electronics in use. The problems seem isolated to my upstairs bedroom and downstairs bathroom, which do share one wall. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The first thing I'd do is check what the voltage is at the outlets. |
It may be a loose connection in the receptacle, possibly a backstabbed white wire or feed-in/feed-out using both screws instead of a pigtail. Any surface that is too hot to touch for a few seconds should be investigated if you are unsure of the cause of the heat. |
Do you have aluminum wiring? |

Ditto on the voltage check at several different outlets in different parts of the house. If some are higher than others, could be a loose neutral. Story too long to post here in full detail, but MANY years ago, about 6:30 pm on Christmas eve, got call about failed water heater in a mobile home. Heater was under the cabinets in the kitchen, non-replaceable element burned out, 120 volts. I did have a new heater that would fit the space, 240 volts. Installed the heater, changed connections in the electrical panel and rushed home to the big dinner awaiting. Some days later the customer asked me if I changed any other wiring. Not to my knowledge. Turns out that one of the counter top receptacles was on the same circuit with the water heater and now was fed with 240 volts. As the customer described the results when a mixer was plugged in, it was difficult to keep a straight face. He told me that it was really good if they were running late in the morning as the percolator would make coffee very fast if plugged into that receptacle. The problem was corrected at no additional charge. |

I thought we had a voltage tester but I guess not, so as soon as I get to the hardware store I'll test the outlets. In the meantime, how would I tell if the wiring is aluminum? |
Do you know when the house was built? Aluminum branch circuit wiring was installed in some homes from approx. 1965 to 1973. It is easy to identify, just peek into one of the problem boxes with a flashlight and see if the bare part of the wire is copper colored or aluminum colored. Shut the power off first of course. |

Why the seeming focus on Aluminum wiring when the issue is apparently high voltage? Just asking. |
"Why the seeming focus on Aluminum wiring when the issue is apparently high voltage?" Hot receptacle outlets and melted switches point to connection issues which are common with aluminum branch circuit wiring. Connection issues can cause voltage variances. |

But poor connections would cause low voltage. Only at the service neutral would a poor connection possibly cause higher than normal voltages. Overheating from poor connections occurs at the connection, not within the appliance unless the problem connection is within the appliance. |
What about a MWBC? I have seen 2 fires from neutrals of a MWBC backstabbed. Both started in TV sets that were using the MWBC when the backstabs failed. The OP mentioned hot receptacles, a melted switch and power dropping in and out at some receptacles, which is why I think there are connection problems at the devices. Pretty tough to diagnose anyway from where we sit, a local pro should probably be called in at this point. Could be a dangerous situation. |

We live in a townhome built about about 12 years ago. I took the plates off of a couple of outlets and most of the wires are coated, so it was hard to tell, but I caught a glimpse of what looks like copper wire. After reading about what a MWBC is and talking with a neighbor, I'm going to call an electrician. If I understand correctly, since a MWBC is a sort of a chain, if there is a problem with one connection then it can cause problems with all of the other related outlets, etc. which makes a lot of sense. It also makes sense that I would not be able to find the problem on my own, since it's not just a matter of switching something out! Thanks for the help! |

.- A Cuban-American think tank has asked the US government, the European Union and private companies to create a special fund of $300 million to aid small businesses in the eventual post-Castro Cuba.
The Cuba Study Group hopes to continue an initiative launched in 1989, when President George Bush signed the bill, Support for Democracy in Eastern Europe, which helped to create a viable private sector in Hungary and Poland and provided funding to small businesses in those countries.
"We know that the current restrictions in law both in the United States and Cuba make the implementation of this project impossible right now," Tomas Bilbao told the CubaNews agency.
Bilbao said it is important that there is preparation "to help the Cuban people and put options on the table. We think it is important to announce this initiative at this time." He said that his organization would "work with US officials to encourage the creation of this fund. What is clear, however, is that this project cannot be implemented until significant reforms take place in Cuba."
Carlos Saladrigas, co-director of the think-tank, said pressure on Raul Castro to resolve the economic problems of the Church could accelerate eventual fundamental changes in Havana. "I hope the Cuban government implements economic reform within the next two years, precisely allowing the startup of small businesses," Saladrigas said.

BREAKING: Designer L'Wren Scott Found Dead In NYC Apartment
On Monday morning, L'Wren Scott was found dead in her Eleventh Ave. Manhattan apartment around 10 a.m., according to multiple reports.
The 47-year-old fashion designer, model and longtime girlfriend to Mick Jagger was discovered by her assistant hanging by a scarf tied to a doorknob. It is unclear whether she left behind a suicide note.
She most recently collaborated with Banana Republic in November to create a full collection of holiday party-appropriate dresses, jackets and loungewear. In early February, she cancelled her London Fashion Week show due to production delays, instead opting to unveil her Fall 2014 collection via social media and present it to press during Paris Fashion Week.

Calvin Klein Fall 2013 Runway
All the quintessential style building blocks were present at Calvin Klein's Fall '13 collection: minimalist silhouettes, impeccable tailoring, and a classic palette. But this time around, designer Francisco Costa turned up the textural intrigue tenfold, thanks to a whole lot of leather, bold geometric shapes (those belts!), and slick PVC detailing. And to top it all off, the outerwear was, in a word, gorgeous. We have a feeling front-row attendee Jessica Chastain, who has been spotted all over NYC in an amazing coat wardrobe (maybe the best ever), has her eye on a few. Take a look at the Calvin Klein Fall '13 collection now.

Always have clean socks.
Just to put the 410 in perspective at 100 yards the 410 energy approximately equals a 22 mag at 75n yards. Neither are good deer loads.

Click/touch Icon, send keyboard input to canvas
Edit2:: This is what I got to work.
Code:<INPUT class=touch type=button value='UP' onMouseDown="up=true;" onMouseUp="up=false;"> <INPUT class=touch type=button value='DOWN' onMouseDown="down=true;" onMouseUp="down=false;">
else if (down==true) {move down code}
BasicallyCode:<INPUT class=touch type=button value='38' onMouseDown="movingUP();">
Code:function movingUP(){ window.event.keyCode = 38; }
But what do I put in movingUP() to send keyCode 38 when while the button is being clicked?????????????????????
Trying to add 8 icons of W,A,S,D, LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN which upon click/touch will input the relative command to the screen canvas for mobiles that don't have a keyboard.
They aren't clicking on the canvas. I need some buttons/icons/images outside the canvas probably in a div, that send input events as an alternative to a keyboard...Something that can be clicked and held down to repeatedly spam that key to walk in that direction.
I have script to click icons from a keyboard and output the clicked key to a text field, but I don't know how to tie it into my keyboard listener in my game..
My game code uses:
Code:// Handle keyboard controls var keysDown = {}; addEventListener("keydown", function (e) { keysDown[e.keyCode] = true; }, false); addEventListener("keyup", function (e) { delete keysDown[e.keyCode]; }, false);
Code:if (38 in keysDown && hero.y > 0 ) { // Player holding UP key //walk north code here }
I found this:function addKey(cKey)
d = document.forms["foo"].elements["bar"];
d.value = (cKey.value=='backspace') ? d.value.slice(0,-1) : d.value+cKey.value;
//elsewhere in html body
<INPUT class=touch type=button value=w onClick="addKey(this)">
Is there a simple way to do this? I wanted to add a fire button and others I figured I could just put an image with an event but can't figure it out....Last edited by nuBee; 12-22-2011 at 05:03 PM.

There are actually several kinds of T cells, and the ones Tarleton and his colleagues studied are the cytotoxic T cell, which scientists call CD8+. What they discovered is that the T cell response in T. cruzi is highly focused on a relatively small set of cellular features called "epitopes," which are part of a macromolecule that is recognized by the immune system. The specific epitopes involved are ones encoded by the trans-sialidase (or "ts") family of genes.
"The function of the ts genes is crucial for the parasite," said Tarleton, "because the parasite must have sialic acids to invade cells and infect the host. But since it doesn't have it, it must steal it from the host cells." The problem is that T. cruzi potentially expresses more than a thousand ts genes, and this pool varies from parasite to parasite--making this set of proteins a poor choice for vaccine development, Tarleton said.
The importance of the new research, however, isn't in specifically what happens in T. cruzi and Chagas Disease. Rather, it is a new understanding of how T cells react to infection in all parasitic diseases, including malaria, which may cause as many as 500 million infections and three million deaths annually in humans. The entire area has been little understood because of the almost impenetrable complexity of the problem.
In organisms like viruses and bacteria, which have relatively small genomes, analysis can be more direct; however, understanding the targets of the T cell response in complex pathogens such as T. cruzi requires much more. Scientists mus

240 Tasting Notes
I got this from Dexter3657 – thank you!!
This has much more flavour than the purple oolong that I have. Mine has no flavour. This, on the other hand, has quite a smoky/charcoal taste to it, that got to me after a while, and became a little too much charcoal. I am only on the first steeping, so maybe the second or third won't be as smoky.
I won't give a rating right now…waiting for second infusion to see if I will enjoy it better.
Second steep…still pretty charcoal tasting…I think I will have to take Dexter3657's advise: rinse and shorter infusions. Still not going to rate it.
Agreed, the first steep was crazy smokey. I liked the second steep better. Next time I may rinse it for 20 sec or so to try and rid the first steep of some of the charcoal taste. Hope you do better with the second steep.
Dexter3657 sent this my way in an extremely generous swap box…thank you so much!
This is a pleasure to sip. It is a lighter tasting pu'erh than what I have been drinking lately, but definitely delicious. It has a light nutty taste, with just the slightest hint of earthiness. Definitely comforting after a difficult day.
I get to add first note??! I feel stressed just thinking about that!!
Ok, I'll do it. First, I must thank the ridiculously generous Dexter3657 for sending me this…thank you!!!
The dry leaf is pretty – all chunky fruits and petals and it smells sweet.
It brews up to a light golden colour, and once brewed it is reminiscent of tart flowers. But neither is overbearing. I don't like tart tea's usually, but this one is pretty good. The tartness is so light, that it adds to the flavour in a positive way. If the tartness wasn't present it would be too sweet.I am also getting a hint of pear, which works really well with the tartness.
Dexter3657 was generous with this sample, my next sampling of this will be as cold brew which I think will be fantastic for this particular tea.
The first time I tried this I had it to go as a hot soy latte, just to see what this matcha was about. I recall my first sip and thinking, I am drinking grass clippings, and oddly enough it doesn't taste terrible! Now every time I go to David's I have one to go.
On one of my visits I finally purchased some, and am so glad I did. I just wish I knew that a little goes a long way, because I purchased too much. But after reading some notes, I put some of it in the freezer to keep fresh.
I now drink this every morning. I put 1 or 2 teaspoons in my David's iced tea to go cup with almond milk and ice. Give it a shake and good to go. I wish I had tried matcha a long time ago, and can't wait to try other matcha's.
Thank you JustJames for a sample tin of this lovely tea! I am liking it. But I am a fan of vanilla.
This is smooth, silky, and creamy. The vanilla adds a touch of sweetness, but not too much. The vanilla is not over-powering, but definitely coming through in flavour.
There's another tea I have stashed away somewhere in the house that is also a vanilla black tea…I think I prefer this one…the other was a little too subtle for my liking. This one from Silk Road has stronger vanilla flavour which works for me.
LOL that's probably why I liked it, not usually a huge vanilla fan. If it was too subtle for you it was probably perfect for me. :))
This one came my way from the ever generous Dexter3657.
This is pretty good. Very creamy from the coconut, with a hint of cocoa. I'm not getting any earthiness that can accompany pu'erhs, this is just a smooth, easy sipping tea.
I'm really liking the Tealux pu'erhs, and this one is no exception.
I had this tea this morning, and finally found a chance to log in to do a tasting note.
From my recall this is absolutely delish. I remember notes of the oolong…mineral, but also the roasty, toasty coconut. I can't believe I left this one for so long, I think it will become a staple.
I have another coconut oolong in my stash, but I think this one is superior. Will have to re-visit other to compare.
While I was driving to do my weekend errands I still had roasted coconut on my tongue 20 minutes after drinking cup. Not a bad thing.
I bought this tea specifically to cold brew, although I will try it hot eventually. Just as soon as this heat wave lets up. It has been a brutally hot week.
As a cold brew this isn't bad, but I didn't get all the flavours that the name suggests. I tasted spice, so I felt like I was drinking a cold chai-type beverage, which was actaully pretty good. But, I didn't taste any plum. Maybe it needs to hot brewed then iced to pull out the plum taste.
This tea did give me the idea to try some other tea's that are spiced as a cold brew to see how that works out.
It is stinking hot in TO again, and it ain't gonna let up 'til the weekend apparently, so I'll be drinking a lot of cold brews (tea and other brews) in the next few days.
This comes across quite floral when cold brewed, with a hint of lychee after-taste. I don't really like floral tea's, but it so freaking humid, that I don't care. It's cold. No peach flavour comes in the cold brew. It's drinkable, and if the extreme heat keeps up, I'll probably finish this by the end of the week.
Thanks again to JustJames for this sample.
I finally opened one of my tea's from iheart teas. I keep looking at all the tea's I have stashed in my cupboards, and keep thinking, I should probably slurp those up before opening a new bag. I couldn't resist.
There is a slight astringency to this tea. I may have infused a tad longer than I should have. But the light notes of caramel and vanilla still come through. This is not overly sweet like other caramel tea's I have tried. Next brew I will add some type of sweetener to see if I can pull out more of the vanilla and caramel.

Controlling health care costs is the fundamental domestic policy challenge facing the United States. Increasing health care costs reduce state funding for education, especially public colleges and universities, raising tuition costs and student indebtedness.1 Increasing health care costs constrain middle-class wages as increases in productivity are siphoned off to fund health insurance rather than take-home pay.2 Increasing health care costs account for a large part of the federal budget deficit and are the fundamental driver of the United States' long-term debt.

City offering signups for emergency system
- Details
- Parent Category: News
- Category: St. James News
- Written by Chris Daniels
- Hits: 303
The Everbridge Mass Notification System is available for St. James residents to keep informed of severe weather, fires, road closures, gas leaks, and citywide emergencies. Residents can sign up for the system online or at the Municipal Center or Golden Age Center to receive notifications in the event of an emergency.
Once signed up, the system will contact residents instantly via phone, text messaging, email, and more and the recipients can define how they would like to be notified and for what emergency situations. The city of St. James and the Municipal Utilities will use the system to keep families informed about important city-related events, road closures, street cleanings and safety concerns. Those subscribed can have multiple land lines, cell phones, and other contact info so the system will continue trying to contact the individual until it receives confirmation.
Sign up is easy and can be done through the city of St. James webpage at www.stjamesmo.org. Users will be asked to create an account with a user name and password. They, then can choose which alerts they would like to receive, where their residence or business is located, any special needs, and locations they would like to be alerted for. Up to five addresses can be monitored. After entering contact information, users then set an order of priority in how they would like to be contacted. Should a user no longer wish to use the service, a delete profile option is available.
"We have a computer set up (at the Municipal Center) and at the Golden Age Center for anyone needing a computer to sign up on," Mayor Dennis Wilson explained.
Information about the program and directions to sign up are also available to residents. The mass notification system is being made available by the Phelps County Commission in partnership with the Sheriff's Department. The Sheriff's Department is funding this first year of service, after which the county will take control of the program. Any user in Phelps County can sign up for free to receive emergency notices.

This is the product I wanted to love 6 years ago (the whole Becca ethos was so appealing), but at the time LSC and my hormonal acne-prone skin did not get on at all. Last summer I walked past a Becca counter (rare sight these days), got chatting with the MUA and decided to try the mineral powder along with the LSC again. To cut a long story short, I have been wearing LSC almost every day ever since. My skin issues have more or less settled and now being in my mid 30s I enjoy the luminosity I get from the LSC. My skin definitely looks much better (and younger) with it on, even though it does not cover much. I use a mineral sunscreen first as I have some hyperpigmentation and then apply LSC liberally. For extra coverage I sometimes use the stick foundation on red areas, but other times I just mix in a tiny amount of Dior forever foundation. I don't even use concealer, only powder. I like Becca's loose powder, mineral pressed powder or Laura Mercier's universal powder, all work well on the T zone after the LSC. Of course I need to blot a couple of times during the day, but the LSC outlasts my 12-hour working days. It's also reasonable value as it lasts around 4 months with daily usage.

I'm 32 years old and have been using Becca for about 4 years now. It's the most natural and beautiful makeup. It makes your makeup look amazing without even looking you have it on. Yes, it is very sheer....which is why you MUST purchase the tinted moisturizer, concealer stick and powder (or any good powder will work). The three combination is what gives you the total look. Concealer stick is used for anywheres you have redness. I place it all on my cheeks, nose and a little on my forehead. I do not have any acne scars and pretty much have very clear skin....the only problem is redness and a bit uneven skin tone. If this skin is yours.....PURCHASE these items!!! Its long lasting as well. I am not a big fan of foundation but I love flawless looking skin....this does the trick.
This is a true tinted moisturizer rather than foundation. To achieve the "Becca look" I have to use the loose powder over this to set the look. Luckily the Tan shade worked well, that is it gives me light, even coverage on a good skin day. This is awesome for the winter/dry season because of the mineral oil ingredients. But in the summer, well, my face is an oil slick after a few hours. I won't use moisturizer or sunscreen with it because I get really shiny. So, it's most appropriate for near clear complexions looking to even out color. The scent doesn't bother me much. The amount you get in the bottle is more substantial than other brands.
For more of a foundation in a tinted moisturizer I strongly suggest Shiseido. At least that's what I use when going out on the town or for my bad skin days.

This is by far the best tinted moisturizer I've used. Very lightweight and sheer but gives enough coverage without looking made up. I have received numerous compliments from friends about the way my skin looks when I wear this. The only downside for me is the scent. It has a sweet almost floral scent to it that is not too overpowering. My skin is very sensitive but so far, has not reacted to the scent( and I'm hoping that it doesn't). Another is the price. It retails for $42 is quite expensive for what it is and the sad thing about it is that I know I will be repurchasing it again.
This isn't really foundation. It's a tinted luminizer. I have not yet found a tinted moisturizer as sheer as this product. If you do not have perfect skin, you will need to supplement it with a foundation stick or tinted powder and then what is the use?
What is a shame is that Becca has wonderful customer support and is very generous with sending samples to you since they realize they are no longer in Sephora so not as readily available. They also create a wide range of shades so, therefore, everyone should be able to find their shade.
The problem is the formulation. Not enough tint, too much greasy moisture and only for those who are blessed with perfect skin. I had to supplement it with another type of foundation and then used powder to tone down the shine. If you have combination skin like mine, you will have to blot in the afternoon on a 70 degree day. Not acceptable.
I also tried to pair it with a mattifying primer. While applying it over the primer I could see the primer being moved around on my face and deposited like clumps on my face. This product doesn't play well with other products, not even it's own Becca primer. Finally after applying Smashbox Halo powder over top did I finally have a nice smooth canvas. This is a tribute to Halo, not this Becca product.
I am currently trying out tinted moisturizers from HourGlass, Tarte, Smashbox, Laura Mercier and a few others. With such a good selection, there is no reason to settle for second-rate. Becca needs to go back the drawing board and rethink what a tinted moisturizer should be. This ain't it.

I've changed climates and have been suffering from dry skin this autumn and this, combined with a new exfoliant has actually saved my skin! My skin was flaking around my mouth, my eyes and around my nose. People kept commenting on it and I felt awful, plus it stung when I exercised and always felt tight. This is so moisturising and is also less sheer than I thought it would be. I was expecting a consistency similar to that of LM TM but this is so much better! My skin looks dewy and fresh without looking oily/greasy. I only regret not buying this earlier!
More reviews by MariellaFromBe
This very sheer foundation (more like a tinted moisturizer, really) comes in 15 different shades, including pink toned, yellow toned and neutral toned ones, up to the very dark side of the skin color spectrum.
Since the product is very light and transparent, you can fall between 2-3 colors and get away with a one that is a tad bit too dark for you, in my opinion.
The product comes in a sleek light plastic bottle with an airless pump, which is very nice. I use 1-1.5 pump for the whole face when applying with a Mac 190 foundation brush.
It has an SPF of 25, which is always a bonus in my book, and it smells very nice - kind of a vanilla scent- but not to the point that it will bother you once it's applied.
This is an extremely lightweight product, actually I'm not surprised Becca includes it in the "priming" step of their "skin perfecting makeup system". Unless you're a 16 years old model with perfect skin, you won't be able to get along with wearing this on its own, as it doesn't hide muchat all. It's actually meant to be used together with the stick foundation and/or the concealer. But it does give a lovely radiance to the skin, and it evens it out nicely excepted for discolorated or hyperpigmented areas.
And it does last extremely well on the skin, even when the weather is a bit extreme.
This foundation is not cheap, but you do pay for a great quality: 50ml, USD42 - £33. Also note that 50ml is more than you usually get in a foundation bottle, the average being 30ml.

Foundation is a misnomer for this product because it really is super light TM. I mean SUPER light. Lighter than theBalm TimeShelter, WnW, Kiehls... I put this into the YSL Apricot Complexion Enhancer camp of sheer lovely colour. There have been other reviews that describe it much more eloquently than I ever could, but needless to say, if this is your only face product, well done because it means you've got stunning skin already.
Because I am not so blessed, I love using this with Becca's Mineral SPF Primer. I believe these products were absolutely made for each other,as the primer goes on with a bit of a white cast (even though I'm very fair, NC 15-20). Perhaps I use too much as I want to ensure that I'm getting the right amount of sun protection because I use retinol at night. However, putting LSF in Nude on top of the primer creates a magical, smooth soft skin tone, texture, surface, than only gets better as the day goes on. A bit of concealer on any spots + undereye circles, a dusting of Coastal Scents silica powder and I'm done. For the day. Yes, for the day. Granted its not summer yet, but I have high hopes for this combo.
For those with particularly dry or problematic skin, I would suggest using LSF as a base before a powder foundation as it is pretty moisturizing and can give that touch extra coverage so you don't need as much heavier foundation.
Honestly I'm happy to have jumped onto the Becca bandwagon. LSF is one of those products where girlfriends say "wow, you look well rested" whenever I wear this. And trust me, for someone who sleeps as little as I do, this is possibly the best compliment I can receive.

I have been using this sheer foundation in camel for about a year. I am of asian decent and personally find that becca has given me the best color match of all the foundations I have tried. It is very hydrating and I use the stick foundation as a concealer. I usually follow up with a loose powder, but am now actually trying to use less powder, so sometimes I just use the foundation all alone by itself. The only con is that there are not many places that sell this brand. I have to order through a spa. Once the spa ran out of my color, and I had to place an order and wait until it was available at the spa, so order ahead of time.
This is the first time in a long time that I've gone out to buy a foundation the proper way. I've been using TM's for so long that I've never bothered to be colour-matched at a Myer/DJ's counter. The last time was when I bought Chanel's Teint Innocence (and even then, I still had to go back for an exchange because the colour I was given, Petale, was too dark). Anyways, I wanted a change from my trusted LM TM in Nude, which I knew was gonna slip off my face come summertime. That and also I wanted something with a little more coverage since one day I looked in the mirror with glasses on and nearly fainted. The SA was really nice and helpful. I walked away happy with the LSC in Cashmere, Concealer in Banana and FLFP in Sesame. However, when I got home, I was a little concerned that the product that I pumped out was extremely watery, more so than Revlon's New Complexion. Shaking the bottle did not make it less watery. I did not remember the product being so watery in store. But I put a small amount on the back of my hand and, using my MAC 190, began applying the foundation. I'm actually glad its so runny. It makes the application much easier and blending so much more seamless. I understand that this is a barely-there foundation, and is really more close to a TM, but I love how it gives my skin a really nice glowy effect, while still looking natural, and it definitely gives much more coverage than the LM TM. You do need powder to set it though as I believe its too hydrating/moisturizing to go without, and I do not think it would be suitable for oily to very oily skins. My skin is combo, I haven't experienced any breakouts yet and its summertime right now in Australia. So hopefully this is an HD for me.

Are there any favorite websites or places you recommend going to purchase cabinet pulls and knobs that are of decent quality? I have to purchase a large quantity for my new construction home--both for the kitchen and bathrooms. Thanks for your input! |

We purchased ours from "the knob shop" on ebay recently. The whole kitchen for about $60. They are installed and there are no issues with quality. Really happy with how they look. |
I purchased Amerock pulls for my kitchen and I couldn't find them discounted anywhere. They were the same price everywhere I checked. I ended up purchasing them through my contractor who passed along their wholesale discount to me. I paid just over $800 for my pulls and think I saved about $68. Just a word of caution about ordering pulls online. Make sure you're able to see and touch them in person before you buy all that you need. Pulls that look practically identical can feel very different. Just want to make sure you're happy with them. I thought I was going with one pull until I saw it in person. Realized it was too small and it wasn't comfortable to grip and open drawers. Went in another direction and am very happy. |
We bought ours on Overstock.com We looked several places and couldn't find anything we liked (style, color, size, etc) for the price. We needed over 50 drawer pulls. I went to Overstock on a whim. They have a large selection and ours were made in USA. The photos and descriptions were accurate and helpful. We bought a pack of five knobs and 5 pulls to see if we liked them. They are solid and feel great in our hands. We liked the knobs so much that we decided to use them on our cabinet doors instead of handles. |

I saw pulls that I liked at a local cabinet and door hardware specialty store. I then checked every website that carried them. The local store actually gave me a better price than any of the online places. They were also able to get sizes that weren't available on most Internet sites. The local store personnel were very knowledgable and helpful. So if you have any hardware specialty stores in your area don't be afraid to go into them and see what they can do for you you might be pleasantly surprised like I was. |

I did the same thing. I went to local places (like Lee Valley, Home Depot and a cabinet store) and looked at their pulls. I then researched the style name/number online to find the best price. In the end the cabinet store had a box of cup pulls for my drawers that he no longer carried and he sold them to me for $1/pull. Can't beat that price. :) |
I ordered our pulls from GlideRite. You can purchase direct from the company or from ebay. We did our whole kitchen for under $100. I first ordered several different pulls to see which ones I liked. Since they were all between $1.50 and $2.50 it was affordable to do this. After already being over budget, I loved being able to purchase something durable, that matched perfectly for the kitchen, AND was low priced. |
- Posted by mountaineergirl (My Page) on Wed, Dec 19, 12 at 21:46
I have ordered my pulls from pulls direct.com. I ordered a few to choose from first and was impressed with them. The rest should be here tomorrow and I'm excited. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Pullsdirect.com
