Is anyone else currently using softxpand?
We tried it in the Library due to space constraints and I can honestly say we have had no end of bother from it. 3/4 calls a day about screens locking up, keyboard and mouse problems and sessions freezing mid logoff. Just wondering if anyone else has it in place and experiences problems?
We use mandatory profiles for students along with group policy to manage numinous things within the school, the advice we received from the tech team after replacing motherboards, installing a fresh build of windows without additional software and upgrading to the newest version was to ditch the profiles and group policy which is not an option.

I share your pain, Since we had it installed over a year ago it has been a completed headache...no migraine since day one. Cable management is KEY to this system, all the USB hubs need to be locked away and assigned appropriately. Also, can you get MovieMaker or Google Earth to work by anychance? Our reselller had to write a "hack" to get MovieMaker to work (which is now not working). Our stations reboot at random times throughout the day (you don't even need to be logged on, an idle station just restarted as me and the assistant head looked at it!)
Poor performance all round (I suspect this is due to the way in which our reseller has configured the main tower stations) means we have YET to get 100% use out of it yet. Oh and to top it all off, our reseller has totally mugged us off, leaving us with a faulty solution that does not work. We our now persuing legal action, its gonna get messi.
HI Firefix_2006
MovieMaker will run if you use the SoftXpand application runner process. Right click on the app you want to run you should see an in context menu option for this.
We have also found that using an Application called Sandboxie will allow multiple instances of Google Earth to run without issues. However make sure your Video drivers and workstations are setup with Native Display settings to get the benefit of 3D acceleraation.
I suspect your configuration might need a small tweak as the systems we have implemented don't suffer the problems you mention.
Please let me know where you purchased from and I will take matters further for you.
Best Wishes
we've had 6 x4 units and 6 x2 units of these installed. The amount of time spent trying to sorting out the keyboard/mouse/audio. Been a nightmare!!!
Hi Everyone who has posted today (or in fact previously) who is experiencing technical or support issues with SoftXpand.
As the UK distributors for SoftXpand please can you submit a support ticket to email@example.com so we can open a support case for your particular situation and if possible work with the resellers involved to resolve the issues to everyone's satisfaction.
Best Wishes
Jamie Easterman
Does that include me Jamie after sending you the information requested?
Email sent with the details I have already explained to yourself...
Will post the outcome here
I have also sent an email as well to londonweb.
Well after almost a weeks wait I have yet to receive even an acknowledgement of the support ticket I submitted. Meanwhile the suite is still having regular issues which need sorting 4-5 times a day. Hope you had more success firefox!
I had a few SoftXpand units which were a nightmare for us, It wasn't really the software side which let it down, it was more to do with the hardware we got supplied as a package, we had failed raid on motherboards, random bios freezing, cheap USB hubs which fell apart or just stopped working.
In the end I just got Ncomputer cards in them and have't looked back since.
Like yourself I had been waiting since last week for an email that seemingly was never going to come, so I gave up and phoned Londonweb and they have advised me to try a few things and have offered to "dial in" to one of our stations which I am setting up now. We have a spare softxpand station (luckily) which I am trying to setup for classroom use but I have tried 3 USB hubs now and cannot get a second keyboard and mouse to connect, when I connected the keyboard and mouse directly to the pc (not via hub) they worked!
Going to keep messing about when I have time/finally get another keyboard and mouse to work. I did not realise that running softxpand in trial mode causes it to restart after 6 hours! I have been doing this as we have had various issues and getting the codes unlocked everytime is a pain!
Support that's on the same reliability level as the product it seems!
Can you please PM me the number you rang? ill try chase them up if I get a chance tomorrow.
Still no response to my support ticket after 2 weeks...
Did any of the solutions work for you firefox?

Hi. I took these pictures of my mother-in-law's cl. Eden. What do you think of this growth? She did say that they do use round up around the roses and other places in the yard. That one lateral is the only one growing like that. Thanks! |

Where are you located? I have seen a lot of round up damage at my bosses, but it has never made the canes super thorny. If you are on the east coast, check out rose rosette disease rrd |

I live in AR and saw lots of round up damage on my roses last year about this time. A stupid mistake I won't make again. It bore no resemblance to what is in your picture. It produced long, thin, pale green foliage just at the top of the plant. It occurred all at once on a plant. It happened to several beds all at once, not gradually. It also did not come back AT ALL when the damaged part was removed. therefore I know for sure it was Round up and not RRD. Having said all that, I have seen RRD too, and that's what you have. |
- Posted by armomto3boys (My Page) on Sat, Aug 23, 14 at 11:30
Well shoot. What should I have her do? |
Usual recommendation is cut up the plant, roots and all, and dispose of in a tightly tied plastic bag. (You can replant in the spot.) Some brave souls try ripping out that cane all the way down to where it attaches to the central cane and then wait to see if it returns. That supposedly works if the disease is in its early stages. However, I haven't really met anyone for whom it actually worked. If you do that, make sure you dispose of the "sick" part in a tightly tied plastic bag. There is no real "cure" for RRD, unfortunately. Bummer, right? Kate |
- Posted by armomto3boys (My Page) on Sat, Aug 23, 14 at 13:50
Oh boy. That is a shame. Thanks for the information. Is there a place where I should report the disease being found in our area? |
- Posted by henry_kuska z5 OH (email@example.com) on Sat, Aug 23, 14 at 14:09
Since it was only one cane, I assume that one can immediately rule out the type of herbicide damage described by arkroselady . If it is herbicide caused I would expect that a root picked up some herbicide from the soil. Kippy-the-Hippy's observation about the excess thorns seems to be the key observation. Using a magnifying glass and looking for mites is recommended by some "experts". My information is given below: http://home.roadrunner.com/~kuska/rose_rosette_disease_virus.htm |
Here is a link that might be useful: link for above
There are people who track RRD, I know Ann Peck does. It's unfortunate, but it looks like you found it early so maybe prevented it from spreading to other roses. |

Re: A family day... what do sailors do?
Roaming a beach they swam to or you went by dinghy.
About 1/4 mi from our marina was a small beach with overhanging trees to the waterline and a small clay deposit. It was a big row for an 8 yr. old, but our daughter called it "The Secret Beach of Fun". She and her friends would sculpt things from the clay, and swim in the shallows. It was a mini-microsm of the Chesapeake Bay. She still recalls it fondly 10 years later.
A point that I forgot earlier.....starting at about 6 yrs, she became bored with passages and just staying on the boat, so we changed our cruising style and searched out marinas with pools.... I can still recite the distance (in hours) between each pool on the Chesapeake.
So we didn't anchor out that much for a number of years, but watching our kid splash endlessly (still!) is a joy. We're just now starting to anchor our again. Sadly, our daughter doesn't join us as much anymore, but maybe she'll return in a few years. At this stage, friends are far more important. Such is the rhythm of life.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Tiffy!
Facts about Tiffy
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Tiffy's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, not good with dogs, and good with cats.
Tiffy came to us pregnant. She had her kittens while in foster care and proved to be a great mom. When Tiffy was done nursing her kittens she took on a litter of orphaned kittens and did a wonderful job with them. She is done with all of that now and is ready for her own home. She is good with children and other cats. Overall Tiffy is a very mellow kitty. Tiffy is living at the Metro Center Petco in their stationary kennels. She has a very unique look that is hard to capture in a picture so stop by and see her anytime, she would love the attention. Metro Center Petco is located off of Peoria Ave.
Other Pets at AZ Furry Friends Rescue Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Tiffy, a Phoenix Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

Russian Middle Class Sprouts, and Buys
IN 1992, a year after Soviet communism ended, Natasha Gomberg had her heart set on owning an American doll. Her mother, Irina Yanovskaya, had inherited a 1964 Sears catalog, and after weeks of thumbing through it, the toddler fell in love with a blond beauty in the toys section. Even the doll's foreign-sounding name sounded exotic: Barbie.
Not wanting to deprive her daughter of something she wanted so badly, Irina set out to find an affordable Barbie for Natasha. But money was hard to come by in those days, and genuine Barbies from America were considered a luxury for most Russians.
Natasha got her heart's desire, but at great expense: The doll cost 164 rubles, almost two-thirds of Irina's 300-ruble salary as a chemist at the Institute of Elemental and Organic Compounds at the Soviet Academy of Sciences.
''That Barbie cost a lot of money,'' Irina said not long after she purchased the doll, sitting with her husband Mikhail Gomberg in their Moscow apartment. They were eating cake with sweet homemade jam, a luxury in those days when sugar could only be bought with ration coupons. ''But when I was a child, I dreamed of owning one.''
Today, little Natasha is the proud owner of four Barbies and one Ken. The once-grand sum of 164 rubles, which was once enough to buy a child's dream, is now worth about three United States cents. And Irina and her husband, who for years wanted to leave Russia, now plan to stay.
Irina and Mikhail, intellectuals who came of age in the years of stagnation under Brezhnev, are typical of Russia's emerging middle class.
Russia's transition from communism to capitalism has divided many people into the opulent rich, with their BMWs and Mercedes Benzes, and the poor, who sell bread and vodka on the street to make ends meet. But a middle class is also emerging, people like Mikhail and Irina who are making it despite the odds of political instability, ethnic strife, and inflation.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Once you go Gore-tex, you don't go back...
These are by far the best pants i have ever owned. 5'11 170lbs and the Large fit me perfectly. I was able to pick them up for around 140$ from brociety, one of the best steals i've ever seen. Nothing comes close the waterproofness or breathability of gore-tex, and the AK styling and fit is on point.

A wave of people who oversee Scottsdale's essential services are about to retire, triggering an experimental program to ensure a new generation of leaders is qualified to keep the city running.
An outside leadership company has started training 16 mid-level officials at the city who will likely become senior leaders in the next several years.
The city has used private companies for training before, but not on this scale. Dozens of managers — about one in five senior leaders — will reach retirement age in three years and create openings for new managers, city spokesman Pat Dodds said.
That kind of turnover in upper management could create a leadership gap — and loss of institutional knowledge — if the city doesn't prepare, said Susan Middents, who is in charge of the city's training programs.
"There are a lot of baby boomers where retirement is going to be a real thing in near future," Middents said. "By investing in our current leaders to be better coaches, they're going to enable the next generation of leaders to become more productive."
The younger managers are getting training from the Professional Coaching Institute, a Scottsdale-based company. The city is trying the program for six months. Scottsdale plans to sign longer contracts and train other employees over the next several years if participants and people who work with them at the city consider the effort worthwhile.
The city will spend $19,000 on the program, part of its $1 million training budget. The training involves several daylong sessions at city offices and various follow-up efforts.
The city also hopes the program encourages employees to continue their careers there since recruiting replacements is often costly and time consuming.

Hockey's Future: Outside of the fact that you failed to defend your Memorial Cup how was the Ottawa 67's year?
Brian Kilrea: We had a good team but we're a bit snakebit in the playoffs with injuries. Belleville, at that time, were the better team.
HF: Did any players take a big step forward?
BK: Biggest step forward would have to have been our goaltender, Levente Szuper. His overall game jumped to a new level and became a difference-maker for us
HF: Try to define the following players on your team by matching them up with the NHLer their style is closest to:
Dan Tessier – Peter Zezel. Great on face-offs.
Joe Talbot – Keith Acton. Pesky, in your face type player.
Jonathon Zion – Phil Housely. Smooth handling the puck.
Lance Galbraith – Wendel Clark. A battler, never say die attitude.

VIVUS, HP: After-Hours Trading (Update 1)
Dow component Hewlett-Packard (HPQ - Get Report) lost ground in the extended session after the PC and printer maker's financial outlook fell short of Wall Street expectations.
Although its latest quarterly profit topped the consensus view, HP said it expects earnings of 88 to 91 cents per share for the current three-month period ending in April, below the average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters for a profit of 95 cents a share.
The stock, which was down more than 30% but had bounced 14% year-to-date, was last quoted at $28.56, down 1.3%, on late volume of 3.6 million, according to Nasdaq.com.
Check out TheStreet's quote page for HP for year-to-date share performance, analyst ratings, earnings estimates and much more. Another big mover in after-hours action was Polypore International (PPO - Get Report), whose quarterly earnings were light. The Charlotte, N.C.-based maker of filtration products that are used in lithium batteries and for medical and industrial applications also forecast a sequential decline in its results in the current quarter because of "some headwinds" that have cropped up. The stock was last quoted at $37.45, down 14%, on volume of nearly 600,000, according to Nasdaq.com. Based on Wednesday's regular-session close at $43.52, the shares were down around 13% for the past year, but they had bounced significantly since scraping a 52-week low of $36.60 on Jan. 31. Check out TheStreet's quote page for Polypore for year-to-date share performance, analyst ratings, earnings estimates and much more. And finally, Analog Devices (ADI - Get Report) fell back in the extended session after the Norwood, Mass.-based chip maker came in light on both the top and bottom lines in its fiscal first quarter ended in January, reporting earnings of 46 cents a share on revenue of $648.1 million vs. the consensus view for a profit of 48 cents a share on revenue of $662.3 million. The shares were off 2.6% to $38.80 on volume of around 200,000 after the bell despite news that the company's board had approved a 20% increase in the quarterly dividend to 30 cents a share. Jerald Fishman, the president and CEO of Analog Devices, expressed some optimism about the second quarter as well. Late in the first quarter, order rates began to accelerate and have remained solid so far this quarter," he said in a press release. "This leads us to believe that the first quarter marked the bottom of this industry cycle and we expect our business will improve beginning in the second quarter." -- Written by Michael Baron in New York.>To contact the writer of this article, click here: Michael Baron.

Volvo PF6110 Tracked Paver Provides Innovative Solutions
Posted By admin On July 2, 2008 @ 12:00 am In Boomerang | No Comments
Paving performance is increased with global technology utilized in the Volvo PF6110 tracked paver. The auger system on the PF6110 is independent of the conveyor system. Each of the two auger and conveyor drives uses sonic sensors for more precise handling of material. The conveyor system has chains that are automatically tensioned for proper performance and less downtime. The conveyor chain cover cleans itself, providing easier maintenance. Reversible augers and conveyors are available as optional equipment.
Hopper capacity for the series is 14.4 tons (13.1 metric tons), giving the paver a practical production rate of 820 tons (744 metric tons) per hour.
A 205 horsepower (153 kilowatts) Cummins Tier 3 engine powers the PF6110 paver. The
PF6110 has a paving speed of 246 feet per minute (74.9 meters per minute) and a travel speed of
10 miles per hour (16.1 kilometers per hour). The paver includes a 30-kilowatt (37.5 kVa) generator with four 110-volt outlets.
The operator station features a new layout and a digital display. The display provides the operator with onboard diagnostic capabilities in four languages. The PF6110 has dual control stations. Both control consoles rotate and can pivot at two points for comfort and each seat may be extended beyond the edge of the machine for improved visibility.
A technically advanced, hydrostatic direct-traction drive system on the paver eliminates 70 percent of all mechanical drivetrain components to reduce maintenance costs.
The continuous and flexible rubber tracks on the PF6110 have larger, oscillating bogies that provide optimal ground contact and traction. A Blaw-Kote release agent spray system is integrated into the machine, with a push-button operation, to keep the tracks clean and provide easier maintenance.
The PF6110 paver has a screed width of 10 feet (3 meters) and a maximum paving width of 26 feet (7.92 meters). Volvo offers the widest selection of screeds in the industry, including the Omni Series. The Omni 318 is a vibratory, power extendible screed designed with front-mounted extensions. The Omni 300 is a fixed screed and the Omni 306 is configured with strike-offs. Screeds with rear-mounted extensions are also being introduced and include the Omni 1000, a vibratory screed; the Omni 1010, a vibratory / single-tamping screed and the Omni 1020, a vibratory / dual-tamping screed.

Pressure mounts for Apple to expand its horizons
January 29, 2014 10:01 am | by Michael Liedtke, AP Technology Writer | News | CommentsApple reshaped technology and society when Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone seven years ago. Now, the trend-setting company is losing ground to rivals that offer what Apple has stubbornly refused to make: smartphones with lower prices and larger screens than the iPhone.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
The Grudge is a mysterious ghost story in the same vein as The Ring. If you enjoyed or were terrified by The Ring, give this one a try. This movie works backwards at times, which leaves the audience with a few questions until the very end {and also makes it hard to summarize without giving too much away}. An American man buys a house in Japan for himself and his disabled mother to live in while the family is in Japan on business. The mother seems distant at times and spends a good deal of time staring at the ceiling. The ceiling seems to creak a lot, as if something is walking {or being dragged across} the empty attic. This is tolerated, but when the mother's house sitter disappears, things begin to get serious. A replacement house sitter is sent in the form of Sarah Michelle Gellar {Buffy the Vampire Slayer}, who immediately feels uneasy in the place. As the movie progresses, she delves deeper into the history of the house while its two incorporeal occupants wreak havoc on the current tenants' lives and sanity. It appears that the two ghosts who haunt the premises seem to hold a special grudge against this particular family, but why? Their hatred goes beyond the usual poltergeist routine of "I want these people out" - these ghosts actually leave their haunt to stalk their victims home and seem to go after anyone even remotely connected to this family. The Grudge has a lot of "jump out at you" scares and dozens of moments that are designed to startle the hell out you... if that's what scares you, that is. After talking to several others who have seen the film, they were either on their edge of their nerves or utterly bored through the film, depending on what scares them to begin with. I was thoroughly entertained by this ghostly mystery, but not terribly scared by it. Overall, The Grudge might or might not be scary, but I feel it's an entertaining ghost story nevertheless. The Grudge is not just your average "I'm scaring these people because I want my haunt back" poltergeist movie. Overall rating 8/10

Diverse Beans a Warm-Weather Garden Star
Posted by Jamie Oberdick on 05/31 at 08:31 AM
Beans are a popular garden plant, with good reason—they are one of the tastiest vegetables in the garden. They are also pretty easy to grow, and with a little bit of TLC you can get quite a yield of tasty pods or shelled beans that can be used in all kinds of recipes. Beans are also a perfect garden crop for vegetarians because of their high protein content. What's not to like?

Rhubarb Applesauce
Posted by Kristin Camplese on 05/30 at 07:00 AM
I wanted to do something slightly more savory with my recent bunch of rhubarb, which is tough because it is very tart and needs some sugar. I settled on the idea of something "applesaucey" and it was a hit with our grilled pork. It would be great with some strawberries added in (if you like the strawberry-rhubarb combo and are willing to part with your strawberries—but I'm not there yet.)

The Great Coffee Adventure: Helena's Chocolate Cafe & Creperie in Carlisle
Posted by Naomi Elle Schwartz on 05/29 at 08:36 AM
Have you ever walked into a place and smiled? It's like finding your "happy place." Happiness may not be found in coffee (or chocolate), but they definitely help. And when you meander into a little cafe like Helena's Chocolate Cafe & Creperie in Carlisle, and look around, I guarantee that you will smile.
It's a little touch of European cafe-style happiness in the middle of a historic town. It's the feeling of being involved in the community, and yet, somehow elevating the community … adding something special to the recipe of community. A sprinkle of joy + a dash of delectable delights + sunny sentiment = Welcome to Helena's!

The Amazing (mostly unknown) Rhubarb
Posted by James Eisenstein on 05/25 at 02:53 PM
When I moved to State College in 1972 and noticed five large plants growing in my backyard in suburban Lemont, I had to ask what they were. Rhubarb, I was told. I had never heard of it. So I took out all but one of them to make room (ironically) for a strawberry patch. Who knew?
I know better now, of course. And judging from the (modest) increase in sales of our Jade Family Farm rhubarb, folks in Happy Valley are catching on, too. Now you can find it from several vendors at most local farmers markets – and sometimes in supermarkets.

How to Transplant Tomatoes Now for Great Harvests Later
Posted by Jamie Oberdick on 05/23 at 08:43 AM
It's mid-May, which is peak time for "putting in the garden," an old saying that means planting your frost-sensitive plants now that we are mostly past the risk of frost. (Although not completely, more on that later.)
Whether you started tomatoes from seed or bought the plants at your favorite garden center or farmer's market, transplanting them the right way is very important.

The Great Coffee Adventure: Pump Station in Boalsburg
Posted by Naomi Elle Schwartz on 05/22 at 09:24 AM
Welcome to the Pump Station Cafe. One of the only free-standing cafes that we have visited, it stands out among the rest. It's just past the only stoplight in the middle of Boalsburg, near the Pennsylvania Military Museum and the bronze statues of three ladies who founded Memorial Day in this historic small town.
While the Pump Station does not memorialize fallen soldiers like the historic attractions surrounding it, the cafe seems to memorialize the long-lost time of gathering by the gas station for a chat with neighbors and friends. This place has a happy sort of nostalgia. A little gas station/garage that used to shelter cars in need of repair now takes a turn as a place for human refueling, refreshing, and restoration. Massive windows encourage the sunlight to flood in, which we all know gives us necessary vitamin D and improves our moods!

Re:How come everyone in the movie is white? (165 comments)
I disagree with this statement. Intelligence is mostly controlled by your genes, it isn't even disputed in the science community. Has nothing to do with how you were raised. There's a bunch of studies on adopted kids and twins that were raised apart. No one ever likes to talk it about because for certain reasons i won't bring up because this type science has been used to commit some of worst crimes against humanity in modern history. Also IQ doesn't mean successful, being successful has to do with your upbringing and education. Smartest guy in the US is a bouncer after dropping out of college. He grew up in poverty and a broken home.

I know that it is preferable to move the place you plant your tomatoes each year, but I really only have one spot that will work. I do have a good supply of compost built up. If I put a lot of compost in that bed, will I be able to continue planting there? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yep, not a problem. Been doing that myself for years. |
This is a common question and there are many discussions here about crop rotation the search will pull up. Many home gardeners simply do not have the space to do it so instead they focus on keeping their soil healthy with regular additions of lots of high quality compost. If you can rotate, great, but when it isn't possible keep the soil well amended so the beneficial bacteria in compost can help control any soil issues. Dave |
Thank you so much for the help. I will dig in the compost, |
I don't have much rotation space either. From what I've read, good healthy compost is the best remedy. I add a few inches each year, fork it gently and let it fall in the holes (because I think there are benefits of not disturbing the soil TOO much each year). |

In Sickness and in Health? That Depends.
3. Men are uncomfortable with caregiving.
Yeah, so. It's true that men aren't as socially-connected as women. They don't turn to others where they can get emotional relief from the rigors of caring for a sick spouse. They don't seek help from friends and family with all that overwhelms them: the kids, the cooking, the cleaning, the family finances, the doctor visits, assisting their partner, the worry and uncertainty besides earning the money to make it all happen. I empathize, I really do. Uh, so because a man's uncomfortable asking for help (or directions) it's okay not to? When did that become a rule? Being on the other end, watching your partner be overwhelmed and being unable to help…that's a bummer, too. When David's doing much more than his part, my heart breaks ('course when he doesn't meet my expectations about that, my heart breaks for a different reason.) Sticking with the before-illness-life-plan fits about as well as my size 8′s do now.
4. Men can't learn.
The biggest implication is that men are men and that's that. Not in them to be caregivers, so don't expect help 'cause it's like asking a possum to herd sheep. Won't happen. I think that the men who leave women who become sick need some serious counseling to unwrap their reasons for running. And that goes for the women, too, if for no other reason than to avoid making more poor life choices. That some men leave can be a reflection of the relationship's health in the first place;some grocery bags fall apart the more stuff you put in them.
Most of the men who leave weren't partner material in the first place — Right On! The saddest part is that women who are left behind suffer greater depression and experience more profound effects on their illness. They spend more time in the hospital and less time practicing self-care in general.
Many men do stay. If you want a demonstration of what commitment in a relationship looks like, here it is. Those of us whose relationships succeed consider visible or invisible disabilities/chronic illness as another part of their lives together.

To all of the bystanders reading this, pardon us. The true audience for this essay narrows necessarily to a pair of notables who have it in their power to save high-end journalism—two newspaper executives who can rescue an imploding industry and thereby achieve an essential civic good for the nation. It's down to them. The rest of the print journalism world is in slash-and-burn mode, cutting product and then wondering why the product won't sell, rushing to give away what remains online and wondering further why that content is held by advertisers to be valueless. The mode is full-bore panic.
And yet these two individuals, representing as they do the two fundamental institutions that sit astride the profession, still have a card to play, and here's a shard of good news: it's the only card that ever really mattered. Arthur Sulzberger Jr. and Katharine Weymouth, publishers of The New York Times and The Washington Post, are at the helms of two organizations trying to find some separate peace with the digital revolution, though both papers have largely failed to do so, damaging their own still-formidable institutions and, on a deeper level, eviscerating more vulnerable regional newspapers and newspapering as whole. Yet incredibly, they delay, even though every day of inertia means another two dozen reporters somewhere are shown the door by a newspaper chain, or another foreign bureau closes, or another once-precise and competent newsroom decides it will make do without a trained city editor, an ombudsman, or a fully staffed copy desk.
This then, is for Mr. Sulzberger and Ms. Weymouth:
Content matters. And you must find a way, in the brave new world of digitization, to make people pay for that content. If you do this, you still have a product and there is still an industry, a calling, and a career known as professional journalism. If you do not find a way to make people pay for your product, then you are—if you choose to remain in this line of work—delusional.
I know that content wants to be free on the Internet. I know that the horse was long ago shown the barn door and that, belatedly, the idea of creating a new revenue stream from online subscriptions seems daunting and dangerous. I know that commentary—the froth and foam of print journalism—sells itself cheaply and well on thousands of blogs. I know that the relationships between newspapers and online aggregators—not to mention The Associated Press and Reuters—will have to be revisited and revised. True, all true.
Most of all, I know that here you are being individually asked to consider taking a bold, risk-laden stand for content—that antitrust considerations prohibit the Times and The Post, not to mention Rupert Murdoch or the other owners, from talking this through and acting in concert. Would that every U.S. newspaper publisher could meet in a bathroom somewhere and talk bluntly for fifteen minutes, this would be a hell of a lot easier. And yes, I know that if one of you should try to go behind the paywall while the other's content remains free, then, yes, you would be destroyed. All that is apparent.
But also apparent is the fact that absent a radical revisiting of the dynamic between newspapering and the Internet, there will be little cohesive, professional, first-generation journalism at the state and local level, as your national newspapers continue to retrench and regional papers are destroyed outright.
You must act. Together. On a specific date in the near future—let's say September 1 for the sheer immediacy of it—both news organizations must inform readers that their Web sites will be free to subscribers only, and that while subscription fees can be a fraction of the price of having wood pulp flung on doorsteps, it is nonetheless a requirement for acquiring the contents of the news organizations that spend millions to properly acquire, edit, and present that work.
No half-measures, either. No TimesSelect program that charges for a handful of items and offers the rest for free, no limited availability of certain teaser articles, no bartering with aggregators for a few more crumbs of revenue through microbilling or pennies-on-the-dollar fees. Either you believe that what The New York Times and The Washington Post bring to the table every day has value, or you don't.
You must both also individually inform the wire-service consortiums that unless they limit membership to publications, online or off, that provide content only through paid subscriptions, you intend to withdraw immediately from those consortiums. Then, for good measure, you might each make a voluntary donation—let's say $10 million—to a newspaper trade group to establish a legal fund to pursue violations of copyright, either by online aggregators or large-scale blogs, much in the way other industries based on intellectual property have fought to preserve their products.

Tips for Choosing Pallbearers
The pallbearer serves the important role of carrying the casket at funeral services. There are usually six or eight total handles on a casket, which allows for one pallbearer for each handle. Typically pallbearers are family members or close friends of the deceased. It's common for adult children, siblings, grown grandchildren, close friends, nieces, nephews, and colleagues to be asked to serve as pallbearers during a funeral service, but there are no rules on who can serve as a pallbearer. Being chosen as a pallbearer is an honor; but make sure to choose someone who is physically capable of carrying the casket. If you want to choose someone to be a pallbearer but have doubts about their ability to carry the casket, make them an honorary pallbearer instead; this way, they can walk beside the casket during the funeral service without carrying the casket.
Leak & Sons Funeral Homes of Chicago understands that planning a funeral can be overwhelming. We are here to help you with the pre-planning of funeral services if you need it. Simply call us at (773) 846-6567 or visit our website to speak with a compassionate and helpful member of our staff.
