After taking a break from music to star in films such as Coach Carter, Resident Evil 3 and a series regular on the 2013 season of Army Wives, now shes back with a new focus and a brave heart. She's ready to regain her spot back at the top of the charts. The set is peppered with swag and sensuality. Ashanti is all grown up and she writes songs that touch the listener as it is based in the reality of her own life experiences. Love. Heartache. Head bangers like Runaway remind us of the Hip Hop infused tracks mixed w/ the sweet melodies and lyrics that made us fall in love w/ her from the start. Fan favorites like Scars and She Can't make you wonder if she's directing the sentiment in a certain rappers direction. The album also boast of celeb features like Rick Ross on I Got It and French Montanna on Early In the Morning, an ode to some morning hanky panky. "Ashanti has labored over this album for the past 2 years trying to make sure it was perfect and that it speaks to her truth" says her longtime touring agent Richard Murphy of Emancipated Talent. "We're extremely excited to get this out to the fans so what we're doing is popping up in markets across the country and giving her fans an exclusive, intimate listening session with Ashanti and her DJ, City".

Recent emphasis on the unhealthy dangers lurking in school cafeterias has prompted revisions to school standards. Next year, more changes will be rolled out as part of the 2010 Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act, including limiting fatty, salty and high-calorie snacks in vending machines and making drinking water more easily accessible.
The role parents play in teaching kids about nutrition, though, is key in kids' developing healthy habits, especially at a younger age. "If you can establish good eating habits early on, they will carry through," Gee said. "The younger the child, the more important the parent."
Make it a habit
The Fitzgeralds have stressed healthy eating since their kids were old enough to eat solid foods. By the time Keenan and Samantha were old enough to make decisions about food on their own, they had already established eating healthy as a habit.
The kids sometimes help with grocery shopping, as well as tending to the family's chickens and small vegetable garden, involving them in the production of their own food. Cooking or gardening with kids, according to research, often increases their propensity for healthy eating. A carrot is all the more interesting when you've watched it grow.
The family is careful to eat grass-fed meats, whole grains and foods without tons of preservatives, chemicals or food coloring. The point, though, is not to be overly restrictive. On special occasions, even the junkiest of junk food is permissible.
Seche said forbidding certain foods isn't the answer. The whole point is to launch the child into being a healthy eater on his or her own, she said, so that when faced with the temptations of, say, a vending machine, the child can still make good choices.
Explaining to kids why healthy food is good for you is also important.
"I try to explain the difference between something that's good for them and something that's not healthy but OK as a treat," Fitzgerald said.
A recent Stanford University study found that taking the nutrition lesson even further is effective. The study, published in the journal Psychological Science, capitalized on young children's natural curiosity, using storybooks to emphasize important concepts of food and nutrition.
Preschoolers were introduced to conceptual details of the food-body relationship generally dismissed as too complex for kids, such as what nutrients are and how blood moves them through the body.
"From their point of view, digestion is a mystery," said Ellen Markman, a study co-author and Stanford psychologist. She said the children in the study were fascinated by their own biology.
"When we're teaching them about blood, you see them inspecting veins," she said.
Explaining the science of why vegetables are important proved persuasive. Co-author Sarah Gripshover said that after the study she even noticed some children "evangelizing" other children on the values of a diverse diet.
Seche said the concept makes sense. "I've seen 4-year-olds talking about protein," she said.

Report presenting the findings of a study which carried out a systematic review of the published review literature on the harms and benefits of alcohol consumption for children and young people. The quality of the evidence found is assessed as is its relevance to the UK population. Gaps in the research are also identified.
This episode of Radio 4's Thinking Allowed series includes a segment on the female sex industry. Prostitution, an industry reckoned to be worth more than £770m a year in the UK, employing an estimated 80, 000 women in Britain, is scheduled for its first comprehensive overhaul in fifty years.
Pamphlet drawing attention to the social damage caused by the asset gap in the UK and arguing that the welfare and tax systems are disempowering for those in poverty and should be used to promote and facilitate self-reliance and independence.
This factsheet discusses the HIV-related stigma and discrimination that sex workers face. They are marginalised and stigmatised because of their work and the fact that prostitution is still criminalised. Many sex workers are further marginalised because of their race or their sexuality, drug taking behaviour and poverty. All these factors increase stigmatisation experienced by sex workers and make them extremely vulnerable to HIV infection.

Guardians of the Galaxy
In the minutes following the death of his mother from cancer, young Peter Quill (played as an adult by Chris Pratt) is abducted by an alien spaceship. Peter was taken by a group of pirates called Ravagers that are led by Yondu (Michael Rooker). Raised by Yondu, Peter is taught the ways of space pirating and grows into a strong, charming and ambitious young man. Sent by Yondu to an abandoned planet, Peter acquires a shiny metallic orb held suspended by a force field. Right after he gets the orb, a group of armed aliens led by Korath (Djimon Hounsou) demand Peter turn it over so they can deliver it to their boss Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace). Peter is able to escape with plans to double-cross Yondu and sell the orb. Korath informs Ronan of Peter's theft. Ronan is summoned by his boss Thanos (voiced by Josh Brolin) to explain his failure. Ronan tells Thanos he has sent Thanos' daughter Gamora (Zoe Saldana), a trained and modified assassin, to retrieve the orb. Once Ronan delivers the orb, Thanos has promised to destroy the planet Xandar which has just signed a peace treaty with Ronan's people, the Kree. Ronan opposes the peace treaty and has a long-standing hatred of Xandar. Gamora catches up with Peter on Xandar where he intends to sell the orb. Their battle attracts the attention of a genetically and cybernetically modified raccoon-like creature named Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and his humanoid tree-like companion Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel). Rocket and Groot are bounty hunters and are after the price on Peter's head put there by Yondu. All four combatants are captured by the security force on Xandar called the Nova Corps. Sent to a prison space station called the Kiln, Gamora and the others meet Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista). Drax knows Gamora works with Ronan and intends on killing her. Ronan killed Drax's wife and child. Peter convinces Drax not to kill Gamora as her presence will attract Ronan. Drax seeks to kill Ronan and decides to let her live…for now. Gamora tells Peter and Drax that she has betrayed Ronan and doesn't intend to let him have the orb as it possess incredible power. With the uneasy peace between the five prisoners, they plot an escape from the Kiln with the intention of making sure the orb doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" isn't among Marvel's top tier of characters. In fact, the characters on which the movie is based were introduced in 1969 and appeared sporadically in established books until 1990 when they got their own publication. It was cancelled in 1995. The book, with new team members, came back in 2008 but was cancelled again in 2010 with the group making appearances in other books. On the face of it, selecting these characters seems like a risky move. Director and writer James Gunn, along with co-writer Nicole Perlman, and his team have managed to turn a misfit group of non-super powered characters who haven't been all that popular in comics into one of the best movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
What makes "Guardians of the Galaxy" so good is a combination of characters, action, special effects, humor and heart. The film's recipe has just the right amount of each flavor. We get a group of people who, despite their differences and initial hate for one another, manages to set all their conflicts aside and work together for the greater good. There are scenes that will bring a tear to your eye one minute and not too much later, you'll be laughing. The visuals are spectacular with locations and space vistas that might take your breath away. There are all kinds of alien creatures on display with skin tones that cover the rainbow. According to the movie's Wikipedia page, some of the more involved makeup applications took four hours. Some of the preparations, especially the full eye contact lenses some actors had to wear, couldn't have been very pleasant. While there is a great deal of CGI and green screen projection used in the film, none of it is glaring and obvious. The two primary computer generated characters, Rocket and Groot, are so seamlessly integrated into the frame you quickly just accept that they were really there on set. While there was someone physically on set occupying the places of Rocket and Groot, you don't get the feeling that you're watching digital creations. The entire production uses CGI in a way that it should be: Showing us worlds and creatures completely alien to the audience; but still relatable.
The five main characters actually are fairly well defined and show some development over the course of the story. When we meet Peter, he's selfish just looking out for himself but learns to open up and sacrifice his safety and comfort for others. Gamora, whom we learn was playing a part to fool Ronan, is cold, stand-offish and single-minded but learns she can open her heart to this group of misfits. Drax is focused on his hate and revenge but learns he must work with others and finds he has a new family. Rocket, the subject of cruel enhancement experiments, only looks out for himself and never trusts anyone but Groot until he finds he can trust Peter and the others. Groot is the only innocent among the Guardians. He is childlike from the outset. While he can use his size, strength and abilities in violent ways, he's only acting to protect his friends. There is no darkness in Groot's wooden soul. For that reason, Groot comes closest to stealing the movie from the rest of the cast. His sweet and kind face and vocabulary limited to "I am Groot" will burrow into your heart. He performs random acts of kindness and expects nothing in return. I want my own Groot but I'll have to wait until 2017 when the second "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie opens.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" is rated PG-13 for some language and intense sci-fi action/violence. There are numerous fights between various characters. We see on character have some cybernetic components ripped off their body that causes them to die. Groot uses his abilities to impale a group of Ronan's soldiers and use them to beat other soldiers. Groot also inserts tendrils up the nose of a prison inmate. There are various explosions that appear to consume some characters. A character appears to be crushed as his spaceship is damaged. There is also the troubling sight of a bald-headed woman who is on her death bed with cancer and the reaction of her young son. Foul language is scattered and not too severe.
From my perspective, "Guardians of the Galaxy" has nothing wrong with it. It is touching, funny and exciting pretty much from the first scene to the last. It is also a movie non-comic book fans will enjoy. Sure, it might not be a bad idea to do a little research on Thanos as he will play a bigger role in later movies; but encyclopedic knowledge of Marvel comics and characters isn't required. If you're already a fan of the MCU, "Guardians of the Galaxy" is required viewing as it adds to the knowledge base for what is to come. Yes, there is a post-credits scene. It isn't the kind of blockbuster that followed "Captain America: The First Avenger" but it may set up something for Phase 3 of the MCU. For some it might not be a welcome addition to the roster of characters. Others may find it whets the appetite for what's to come. What's important is that you see all the film that precedes it because it is great.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" gets an enthusiastic five guitars.

CNBC this week features a story highlighting manufacturing challenges in the United States. "Solving Manufacturers' Jobs Dilemma" focuses on manufacturing jobs left open, despite high numbers of unemployed workers, because managers can't find workers with the skills needed to fill the open jobs—the so-called "skills gap." Experts debate about the actual number of open jobs due to the skills gap. In 2012, Boston Consulting Group reported there were 80,000 available manufacturing jobs unable to be filled because of lack of candidate training. Yet, a 2011 study by Deloitte and the Manufacturing Institute asserts there could be as many as 600,000 of these open jobs. "Building a skilled workforce after decades of erosion in an industry is not easy," CNBC reports. "From 1960 through 2012, the number of Americans working in the textile and apparel industries dropped 83 percent to 166,000 from 1.2 million, according to the Manufacturing Institute." The CNBC article highlights The Makers Coalition, a Minnesota partnership between the Dunwoody College of Technology and area manufacturers. The partnership's goal is to teach people industrial sewing skills and promote the trade. Once unemployed or underemployed, the students find well-paying jobs with room for advancement. While The Makers Coalition matches workers with sewing jobs, the skills gap exists across multiple industries and employment levels within manufacturing. Despite this variety, the solution across the board involves education. Therefore, I was pleased this week to see a software blog from Software Advice that features the story "3 Supply Chain Certifications that Will Land You a Job." The APICS Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) features prominently.
The post quotes Monty Boyle, CPIM, CIRM, CSCP, a common process deployment specialist for BP and a consultant. The CSCP "teaches you to look at the supply chain from a broad perspective; to view the relations between the areas of planning, sourcing, manufacturing, and delivering and see how the overall supply chain integrates."

Rise of the planet of the merchants
- Published: 28 Oct 2012 at 00.00 | Viewed: 11,728 | Comments: 31
- Newspaper section: News
- Writer: Voranai Vanijaka
When the merchant elites buy up the provincial lords, what do the traditional elites have left in their hands? The answer requires a bit of background.
When General Prem Tinsulanonda stepped down in favour of a democratic general election in 1988, the decade that follows, the 1990s, could be dubbed "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". With the power vacuum, provincial lords, mafia godfathers and gangsters in uniform ran amok in parliament and in the capital. It was a period when governments came and went, brought down by corruption scandals. The newly rich borrowed frivolously and invested unwisely, while the banks were only too happy to join the party.
This was the time when the so-called "kingmakers" rivalled the actual leaders of the country in fame and power. Sanoh Thientong, Newin Chidchob and Suwat Liptapanlop were provincial lords who shaped the nation. The 1990s was also a time when there were very few rules in Bangkok. Law-trumping and power-flaunting individuals got away with anything you can imagine. There was no legal order, social order or any kind of order. It was a time when anything went, a time of cowboys and yahoos. When the 1997 economic crisis hit, everyone knew it was time for a change.

I purchased a house that has a small pond in front. It is a preformed pond with a ledge about 9" deep and the bottom being maybe 2'? It's about 7x3' wide. I haven't taken a measuring tape to it but almost positive it's not 3ft deep. There is a box filter with bioballs. I replaced the sponges at pump at time of purchase because after sitting all winter and finding dead moles, etc, it was decidely anerobic - you could actually smell the thing from the neighbors house. I drained and cleaned a bit, and have a small comet and shubunkin fish in there right now, along with some Moneywort. I had some hornwort in there but it either died or they ate it! I purchased from an estate, so I can't ask the former owner any questions but the little boy next door tells me the former owner only put one fish in there each year in the past, and that fish always died. based on what I got out of the pond when I moved in, she bought a Koi each year, one too large for a pond this size to sustain. Is it possible to keep any fish in this alive overwinter in temps that usually dont go any lower than -5 tops? |

hi Jenny, nice little pond. Yes koi will no problems in that temperature. Just remember to have an air stone to keep an open area. Also watch your Ph levels etc.. I would not put too many more fish in the pond. The Shubunkin will need to come out for the winter. It will not survive the winter. Craig |
My shubunkin survive very well in my pond overwinter. I use a heater and a bubbler and have not lost any except to racoons. |

Please don't put koi in that size of a pond. They grow far too large too fast to be in such a small pond. I would say two goldfish tops is the limit for that tiny pond. I wouldn't even think they would winter over in that because of the shallow depth. On top of the inadequate habitat, koi are expensive compared to 25 cent goldfish. |
I agree with some of the others...don't waste your money on Koi for a pond that size. I go to Jack's Pets and ask for them to pick out the prettiest goldfish from their 'feeder fish' tank, and they cost .19cents each! In a pond that size, it's very important to keep decaying plants and leaves out of the pond. They will cause gases that will kill the fish. Amonia is another problem. About once a month, you can lay your hose in the bottom of your pond, let it run for an hour, and when the water overflows the pond, it will clean your pond out like new. I do this once a month. I don't worry about the chlorine. My goldfish even have babies, and there's frogs in the pond, and they never seem to mind. Make sure you have bottom plants and plants that cover at least 1/3 of the surface of your pond, to help keep the water temperature down, if you live in a warm climate. Good luck. I've had a pond for probably about 20 years. It's always a learning experience. :-) |
I had a pond about that size in a small covered atrium and had anywhere from 6-12 or so comets in there. It was protected by three walls and in the summer stayed pretty cool since it only got a bit of sun. I flushed it with hose water and it got a LOT of rain, and I cleaned it with a diatom filter also. To keep it from overflowing I sunk a 1" PVC pipe in the gravel / rock before building it and when the pond was full I cut the pipe at the level I wanted the water at. I could get a monsoon and it never overflowed. Everything went fine until it became the local "racoon buffet" The comets didn't survive. I have no racoons here and I'm thinking about another one. |

The current obsession of degrading the credibility of champion cricketers is baffling and amusing at the same time

Yes, the same as a number of other cricketers until the rule change.
As per the rule change was he a chucker, no way. There may have been the odd delivery that wasn't legal but i hesitate to doubt that this may well have happened to a number of bowlers who's actions come closer to the limit.

Yes, like all of them
Before the rule change that was.
Member of the Sanga fan club. (Ugh! it took me so long to become a real fan of his)
What is the definition of chucker for these purposes?
So my take is that people who voted as 'yes' have no idea about the related cricket rules or just want to go by what they see on TV screen?
I'll show how it's done....
Some may disagree about how the rules define a throw.
Basic fact is they changed the rule to accommodate him.

people seem to have a hard time finding my front door lately. i always find it, but somehow they either enter the barn or go right by the front door and end up peering into the living room through the french doors, which startles me and the dogs.
the door is a real front door, with doorbell, paper/cork thing for notes,etc., so i think it's hard to miss, but maybe not. so i guess i need a sign which tells you where the door is. short of actually putting a sign on the door which says--front door--what else would convey that idea? "welcome" seems a little generic, as does "entrance". there is a little shop in town that will make any sign i want, i'd like something friendly and easy to understand--not too cute-sy. thanks, i'm totally drawing a blank on this one! |
Follow-Up Postings:
What about putting a knocker on your door? It's a classic look and certainly reads front door, to me. Depending on the space you have, you can also place a little vignette with a small chair and stone/ironware filled with seasonal greenery or flowers. |
Actually -- I do like "Welcome" or "Entrance" signs leading to the front door. ((the obvious "HEY YOU!! -- QUIT PEEKING IN MY WINDOWS -- THIS IS THE FRONT DOOR" sign seems a bit too much .... just teasing! LOL!) Take another look at your whole entrance way -- could you add bright flowers or garden lights to lead your guests? Perhaps add a bit of color (maybe a bench or chair or even bright flowerpot?) by the doorway? Just some thoughts! :) Jan |

Your landscaping should direct visitors to the proper door. This is a pretty common problem and addressed in a lot of landscaping books; check out some in the library for ideas. The path should be wider and more prominent to this door, for one thing. You might pose your query, with pictures, in one of the garden forums like landscape design, I'm sure you could get some good ideas. The bottom line, I think, is that it's more of a landscaping issue than just the front door issue. |
How about a welcome mat? |
I agree with lovesummer, you need a path of some kind to lead visitors to the door. Do your visitors park on the street? Do they park in your driveway? You may also need better lighting next to your front door. If it's dark, nobody can tell that it's the main entrance. Install a motion sensor on the light, so it goes on (and off) automatically when someone approaches. As far as a sign, I'd stick to something simple--just your last name and house number (in large letters, so emergency vehicles can easily see it). If you decide to go with a welcome mat, I recommend this one: :-) |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 11:54
now that's a door mat i could use!! ok, i have decorative lights on either side of the door, a wrought iron door scraper--it's an oval floral design and very pretty. plus an old painted bench and a large chest we store boots in. the gate leads to the door, then if you take a right out into the yard you follow the path to the patio and the living room french doors. it could not be more obvious where the actual front door is!!! i guess my guests may just be nosy or unfamiliar with front doors! my idea is to post signs of the front by the gate. one which says 'to the barn' with an arrow and one which says ??? pointing to the front door. i don't want it to say 'to the front door' or 'welcome'. i was thing of an arrow with the words 'to the kitchen'. would that clue you in if for some reason you were confused about how to enter the house? maybe the the sign should say 'enter ye all who abandon hope', nah, that might be a little overly dramatic. sigh, this is making me nuts, obviousely. (where does that quote come from, i can't remember...) |
Your landscaping should direct visitors to the proper door. Well, but not always. I understand the OP's issue. I have it myself. People pull into my driveway and go directly to the side door (laundry room) and not the front door (around the front of the house). I have a ton of ladies coming over tonight. I guarantee they will plow into the side door and not the front door as it's super cold (negative windchill) and snowing. See the door they all will use: |
I think it would be clever for the sign to be hung on the gatepost (as long as you have some type of nighttime lighting..that says: < GUESTS |

for dgmarie ... you might want to set an obstruction, such as a chair or plant pot right in front of the door that you don't want them to use. Personally I'd also rather they come in my nicely decorated front door foyer rather than into my laundry area. I think a little trouble is that people don't want to be so formal anymore ... they don't want to use the front door :) |
- Posted by bronwynsmom (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 14:31
You can paint your front door a different, stronger color, and the other doors to match your house trim. As to the quote, it's "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here," and it's Dante, from The Divine Comedy. I have a head full of this trivial stuff...no wonder I can't remember anything! ;>) |
You mention a path to the patio - is there also a path to the front door? If I saw only one pathway I would probably just follow that one. |
To the OP: I think a photo of the situation would help understand the dilemma your guests face. As for mine, no way would I put a chair or something to block the door. That would seem totally unwelcoming. These people realize I have a front door. If they want to enter through the laundry room, so be it! |
- Posted by melrosgirl (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 17:02
Dgmarie, I have the same problem. We have a side load garage and many people insist on parking in the driveway. Then they walk to my side door (laundry/mud room). Half the time I don't hear them knocking there as I'm expecting them to ring my front door bell. Drives me CRAZY. The side door is next to the garage. It is no where near the front door. People should park in front of your home IMO and not in the driveway. If they park out front, I have a lovely front porch that makes it obvious where the front door is. I've considered putting a sign on my side door saying please use other door. I guess my "friends and family" entrance is really a family only entrance. |
For a great read on the subject, see The Welcoming Garden, y Gordon Hayward. It's funny, we only have a front door that is intuitively accessible to guests. The back doors are behind gates. I have though of it as a liability, but now I am feeling better about my situation! |
- Posted by hostagrams (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 19:19
DGMarie and Melrosgirl: How about a little cartoony sign on the WRONG door that says "Laundry staff entrance only!" At best, maybe they'll look for the front door. At worst, maybe they'll help with your laundry! Arlene |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 19:28
i love 'guests' and 'deliveries'!! though i wish it was and 'staff'!! i'll get the signs made and take pictures for you. thanks! and i'm going to read the welcoming garden, too. |
I vote for humungus yellow arrows painted on the ground. hehe |
You know there is the other explanation for this. I for one, when approaching someone's home, immediately wonder if there is a side entrance because lots and lots of people have them and prefer people to use them as they are usually right off of the kitchen where most people are hanging in or around. It's less footsteps to answer the side door rather than the front door. So that could be the reason for some people automatically going to a side door. They might be stupid like me. LOL |
We have this problem - our house is on a long narrow lot and our garage faces the road. There are numerous doors from which one can enter onto various porches on either side of our house (an extended Cape). We have added onto it over the years and finally have a "front" door but it is not properly landscaped yet. We are putting up a fairly major fence and gate to keep people from coming through the garden up to our "back" door near our kitchen/dining area. I am thinking maybe a flag pole mounted on the wall near the door we want people to use might indicate it's importance, either with a seasonal flag or the American flag flying from it (along with appropriate landscaping). Or are decorative flags out of style? I don't know! seagrass |

"Servants' entrance" sign on the laundry room entrance, and a wreath with a "welcome" sign on the front door, might work. |
- Posted by jeanninepc99 (My Page) on Wed, Jan 14, 09 at 20:34
I have two doors that are very near each other. The patio door faces the sidewalk, but the step up is a little too big (so I thought). I have had CL people climb up the brick wall (there's a raised garden in front of the patio and door) and come to that door! I tried to beef up the front door and made it a little more inviting than the side door. I still have people coming to the "side"...I just deal with it. Something that I found that I really like is a large, adhesive monogram for the front door. I think it looks pretty nice. They come larger and smaller and in all sorts of colors/styles. I photoshopped the number off the door so none of you stalkers will come find me. ;) The number is above the knocker, so it "balances" out the monogram (I think). |

I couldn't resist, since I'm O/C about Italy and Italian: "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate" translates to "abandon all hope, Ye who enter here"... from Dante's Inferno, I think. You could put that over your french doors ... if that doesn't discourage people, I don't know what would! |

Message Functions in C/API
Hello everyone. I am, as you can tell, new to this forum and I had a few questions about the message functions in C/API which I have posted on another forum in vain. (I apologize for the lameness and unoriginality of my name, but I'm not the most creative of persons and SirNotApearingOnThisForum wouldn't fit)
Anyways, I've created a program to send messages with the NetMessageBufferSend() function to allow it to be sent from an alias. However, according to MSDN, the ACL list, by default, only allows administators or domain controllers to call this function on a remote computer, and since we are not administrators at school, it's a little useless at the moment. The same goes for NetMessageNameEnum(). However, I know it it possible to use these or alternatives because net.exe uses them. So, basically, would anyone know how to change the ACL list or do whatever I need to do in order to use these functions? MSDN was a little to vague about it all and since I originally thought of ACLs as something related to files, I'm a little in the dark here. I'm not going to post the code because it would probably take up a page by itself and it really isn't needed.

GUI Design Book Recommendations?
Re:I'm no UI expert... (338 comments)
In reality, none of these are that important. You see, there's one thing everybody here failed to mention, and it's the fact that the thing using the USER INTERFACE is a human. As much as this is widely disputed at some points during the software development lifecycle, the fact remains that PEOPLE will be using this product. And you have to pay more attention to human psychology!
Be careful in choosing the right colors, know what a color means, and which feelings it induces to the user. There's an important difference in perception of even hard vs. oval edges. Know how users tend to use the program and try to solve their problem first. Then minimize things, see what you can automate, but not annoyingly smart -- like Word's Clippy. Then, make the thing look good. That's how you should design a good user interface. Never the other way around.
There's one more thing I'd like to point out. A lot of people here pointed out HCI as a good starting point. Well... It's nice to know the things already done on this, but If you have a radical new idea that you think can "shift the paradigm of user interfaces", don't just ignore it. Obviously don't just put anything in, do some testing, prototyping first, see if it fits the above, but don't just let it go, because it's not standard practice!

Sydney, Feb 17 : BMW is recalling almost 570,000 cars in the US and Canada to fix a flaw in a battery cable connector that can cause the engines to stall.
The recall affects the popular 3-Series sedans, wagons, convertibles and coupes from the 2007 through 2011 model years.
Also included are 1-Series coupes and convertibles from 2008 through 2012, and the Z4 sports car from 2009 through 2011, News. com. au reports.
According to the report, the cable connectors and a fuse box terminal in the cars can degrade over time, and that can break the electrical connection between the boot-mounted battery and the fuse box at the front.
If that happens, the cars could lose electrical power, causing the engines to stall unexpectedly, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said in documents posted on its website.
The German automaker says dealers will replace the battery cable connector and secure it for free. It will start notifying owners in March, the report said. (ANI)

PARIS | The positive vibes and big-deal victories began for Stan Wawrinka at last year's U.S. Open, back when he still went by "Stanislas," and picked up steam at this year's Australian Open, where he earned the right to forever be called "major champion."
And yet all of that seemed so far away late Monday at the French Open as dusk approached — and defeat became apparent — in Wawrinka's first Grand Slam match since winning his first major title.
PARIS | Serena Williams was wrapping up her pre-French Open news conference when someone seated in the front row wanted to know whether she would take one question in the local language.
The tournament's defending champion gave the OK. The reporter proceeded to put forth a pair of queries, and Williams arched her eyebrows and kiddingly chastised him — in French, of course — for asking two. She went on to answer both, earning a thumb's up from the media member.
WASHINGTON — Albert Pujols smiled as he explained why he felt the need to apologize to his wife for hitting homer No. 500 so quickly after No. 499.She had planned to be there in person once he got within one of the milestone.He didn't give her the chance.Pujols became the first major leaguer to get his 499th and 500th homers in the same game, connecting twice Tuesday night and driving in five runs in the Los Angeles Angels' 7-2 victory over the Washington Nationals. He's the 26th player in big league history to reach 500.
WASHINGTON | Benefiting from the decision to overturn Ian Desmond's inside-the-park homer on replay review, the Atlanta Braves beat Washington 2-1 Friday, spoiling the Nationals' home opener and giving rookie manager Matt Williams his first loss.
Desmond's shot down the left-field line in the fifth inning, which appeared to tie the game at 1-all, was switched to a ground-rule double after a five-minute delay after Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez requested the review. Desmond was sent back to second base and wound up getting caught in a rundown while trying to steal.
JERSEY CITY, N.J. — NFL players rely on all sorts of methods for dealing with the type of weather the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks are expected to face in the Super Bowl.
Even if there's no snow or rain on Sunday, which is what the National Weather Service predicts, the high temperature is supposed to be 38 degrees. With the opening kickoff set for about 6:30 p.m., it could be in the 20s by the time the big game comes to an end.
So how will the Broncos and Seahawks thwart the cold?
Depends on who you ask.
Roger Staubach was watching on TV a couple of weekends ago when Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton completed a 51-yard pass for a tying touchdown on the final play of regulation against Super Bowl champion Baltimore, aided by a Ravens defender accidentally tipping the football toward a receiver.
The official NFL game summary's description contained these words: "A.J. Green catches hail mary pass."
At the moment, 2013 is on pace to wind up as only the second NFL season in the past 20 years without a single 1,500-yard rusher.
It's certainly possible that'll happen — and seems plausible in today's pass-first league, where a game in which a player accounts for 350 yards through the air is far more commonplace than one with a guy gaining 150 on the ground. So far, there have been 36 such passing games this season, and only nine such running games.
ASHBURN, Va. — Eleven seasons into his football career, Washington Redskins linebacker Nick Barnett figures he has a pretty good sense of the sort of teasing and hazing and horsing around that happens in the typical NFL locker room, especially when it comes to rookies.
They're stuck with $5,000 dinner tabs. They're told to tote the helmets or pads of older players. They're held down and given unwanted haircuts or get their eyebrows shaved.
On Peyton Manning's first drive of his first game as a visiting player in Indianapolis, the Denver Broncos faced third down and 1 yard to go. Manning handed the football to Knowshon Moreno, who was stopped short. Denver punted.
On Manning's third drive, again he faced third-and-1, again he gave the ball to Moreno, and again the play was stuffed. Again, Denver punted.
"Hit a little rut there," Manning said hours later, after the Colts gave his Broncos their first loss of the season.
Darrell Green is not impressed.
The Hall of Famer looks around today's NFL and sees a lack of talent at his old job.
"When it is most needed, in my opinion, the cornerback position is probably producing at its lowest level," Green said. "Guys like myself and Deion Sanders and Mike Haynes — this is the time when we would be saying, 'Yes! This is great! We want you to pass.'"
