Why Adoption is a Great Option
Nita - beautiful GSD!, a Los Angeles German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Los Angeles, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Los Angeles.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Los Angeles 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 Los Angeles 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 German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Los Angeles paves the way for another one to be saved.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions. Dalai Lama Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness. But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads? The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us. Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought. Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime! There is nothing can pay one for that invaluable ignorance which is the companion of youth, those sanguine groundless hopes, and that lively vanity which makes all the happiness of life. We need to move into a culture of peace. What I hope to promote is the idea that we all need each other and that the greatest happiness in life is not how much we have but how much we give. That's a wealth that's priceless. You can't buy compassion. Let us never know what old age is. Let us know the happiness time brings, not count the years. Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meanderings, but leads none of us by the same route. |

After the disastrous effort of my last build (62 Thunderbird) which ended up being thrown across the room and stomped on, I'm actually excited about building this one.
It's been about 20 years since I built any drag model, so I'm not really sure how I'll go with this, I want to make it a bit detailed, but not over the top.
The inspiration I have gotten from you guys here on this site has been amazing, so I hope I can live up to your standards.
I have the colour scheme worked out for this, well in my head it looks good.
Essentially, the idea for this, is if it were my team and car that I am running. Sponsors are sorted and everyone is excited to be involved.
Not much of a start, just been cleaning up the body and started cleaning the rollcage, very tedious.
These are the wheels I think I will use, Pegasus, yet to be painted, but I think the rear tyres are too big, so I might have to go back the original kit ones.
Not sure which motor I will use, kit or I have this Ross Gibson one, I like the idea of a 811 cu inch motor.
I'm thinking that this build will suit the Top Sportsman class, TS/A, 'A' unsupercharged. Basically any motor, configuration, the car has to run faster than 8.5 seconds with a dial your own handicap.
I'm hoping it will run low 6's.
Anyway, thanks for looking, comments are welcome, please go easy on me.

Market to Market
Organic Cotton Up-Date (#2321)
MARKET TO MARKET enters its twenty-third year on public television. Now broadcast in 25 states on nearly 90 public television stations, MARKET TO MARKET is the longest-running nationally syndicated television program covering agriculture and rural affairs. The program continues to grow in importance to the nearly 60 million citizens of Rural America. Unlike mainstream media, MARKET TO MARKET understands agriculture and the rural economy. Not only does the program provide timely news and market analysis to the agricultural community, it is an important source of information to all rural Americans on a wide range of issues. In the past year, MARKET TO MARKET viewers have seen reports on the deregulation of electric utilities, the impact of gambling on rural economies, and the emergence of a new generation of farmer-owned, community-based co-operatives. The program has tracked the contentious and litigious issues of large-scale livestock production. It has reported on significant industry trends like the growing market for organic produce and products, changing futures contracts, internet marketing and a host of new ventures ranging from mushroom farming to aquaculture. MARKET TO MARKET has reported on new technologies ranging from genetically altered seeds, satellite farming systems, toxin-eating plants, and the science behind Mad Cow Disease and new meat safety standards. It has examined the potential for industrial hemp and other fibers as substitutes for the nation's dwindling forest and petroleum resources. As the fortunes of rural communities and family farms become more interdependent, the need for information in rural America is becoming more critical. There is no other program like MARKET TO MARKET, and it is only broadcast on PBS stations. [27 minutes]

Series Description: MARKET TO MARKET will continue the tradition that's made it one of the longest-running series on public television and the longest-running agricultural program anywhere - solid reporting about the issues that challenge agriculture and expert analysis of major commodity markets that fuel the economic engine of rural America. Despite the fact that agriculture and rural enterprises represent important sectors in nearly every state's economy, rural America's stories are given scant attention by the nation's traditional media. That's why MARKET TO MARKET'S broad range of reporting - from global trade conflicts to environmental controversies to new technologies to emerging rural economic initiatives -- is so important. As important are the series' experienced market analysts who provide thoughtful insight about price trends and offer strategies to help producers and processors cope with changing times. Mike Pearson returns as host and is nationally recognized for his agribusiness acumen and rural expertise.

New King James Version (NKJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Better is the poor who walks in his integrity Than one who is perverse in his lips, and is a fool. | 1 Better a poor man whose walk is blameless than a fool whose lips are perverse. |
2 Also it is not good for a soul to be without knowledge, And he sins who hastens with his feet. | 2 It is not good to have zeal without knowledge, nor to be hasty and miss the way. |
3 The foolishness of a man twists his way, And his heart frets against the Lord. | 3 A man's own folly ruins his life, yet his heart rages against the LORD. |
4 Wealth makes many friends, But the poor is separated from his friend. | 4 Wealth brings many friends, but a poor man's friend deserts him. |
5 A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who speaks lies will not escape. | 5 A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who pours out lies will not go free. |
6 Many entreat the favor of the nobility, And every man is a friend to one who gives gifts. | 6 Many curry favor with a ruler, and everyone is the friend of a man who gives gifts. |
7 All the brothers of the poor hate him; How much more do his friends go far from him! He may pursue them with words, yet they abandon him. | 7 A poor man is shunned by all his relatives-- how much more do his friends avoid him! Though he pursues them with pleading, they are nowhere to be found. |
8 He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good. | 8 He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; he who cherishes understanding prospers. |
9 A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who speaks lies shall perish. | 9 A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who pours out lies will perish. |
10 Luxury is not fitting for a fool, Much less for a servant to rule over princes. | 10 It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury-- how much worse for a slave to rule over princes! |
11 The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger, And his glory is to overlook a transgression. | 11 A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense. |
12 The king's wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass. | 12 A king's rage is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass. |
13 A foolish son is the ruin of his father, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dripping. | 13 A foolish son is his father's ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping. |
14 Houses and riches are an inheritance from fathers, But a prudent wife is from the Lord. | 14 Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the LORD. |
15 Laziness casts one into a deep sleep, And an idle person will suffer hunger. | 15 Laziness brings on deep sleep, and the shiftless man goes hungry. |
16 He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul, But he who is careless of his ways will die. | 16 He who obeys instructions guards his life, but he who is contemptuous of his ways will die. |
17 He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, And He will pay back what he has given. | 17 He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done. |
18 Chasten your son while there is hope, And do not set your heart on his destruction. | 18 Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be a willing party to his death. |
19 A man of great wrath will suffer punishment; For if you rescue him, you will have to do it again. | 19 A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty; if you rescue him, you will have to do it again. |
20 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days. | 20 Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise. |
21 There are many plans in a man's heart, Nevertheless the Lord's counsel--that will stand. | 21 Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails. |
22 What is desired in a man is kindness, And a poor man is better than a liar. | 22 What a man desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar. |
23 The fear of the Lord leads to life, And he who has it will abide in satisfaction; He will not be visited with evil. | 23 The fear of the LORD leads to life: Then one rests content, untouched by trouble. |
24 A lazy man buries his hand in the bowl, And will not so much as bring it to his mouth again. | 24 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he will not even bring it back to his mouth! |
25 Strike a scoffer, and the simple will become wary; Rebuke one who has understanding, and he will discern knowledge. | 25 Flog a mocker, and the simple will learn prudence; rebuke a discerning man, and he will gain knowledge. |
26 He who mistreats his father and chases away his mother Is a son who causes shame and brings reproach. | 26 He who robs his father and drives out his mother is a son who brings shame and disgrace. |
27 Cease listening to instruction, my son, And you will stray from the words of knowledge. | 27 Stop listening to instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge. |
28 A disreputable witness scorns justice, And the mouth of the wicked devours iniquity. | 28 A corrupt witness mocks at justice, and the mouth of the wicked gulps down evil. |
29 Judgments are prepared for scoffers, And beatings for the backs of fools. | 29 Penalties are prepared for mockers, and beatings for the backs of fools. |

The Digital Skeptic: Dreamliner Brings iPhone 'Reliability' to the Skies
And it all seemed like a brave new world of efficient air transport, save for one scrupulously well documented trend: Based on published documents, Boeing struggled mightily to manage the information needed to actually build the 787.
Lost in a cloud of data
The documentation of data gone wild with this plane is almost a cottage industry among journalists, analysts and academics. Serious A-list professors such as Ravi Anupindi of the University of Michigan, who did a fascinating breakdown on how sourcing thousands of cheap assembly parts confounded Boeing.
There is the excellent 2011 story by Michael Hiltzik of the Los Angeles Times that detailed the costly outsourcing mistakes with the 787, confirmed by the Harvard Business Review.
"Boeing agreed not only to outsource an unprecedented amount of the plane's parts to partners in Europe, Japan and China, but also to transfer to them unprecedented know-how," Dick Nolan wrote in a 2009 Review post.
But to me, the most readable, earnest -- and frankly, terrifying -- telling of how humans were lost in the big data skies is told by an Eller College of Management student at the University of Arizona named David Mahmoodi. In 2009, working from public documents, he wrote a paper called Outsourcing of the Boeing 787 that is a must-read for any investor. Mahmoodi breaks out the grim details of how an Italian subcontractor hired to build the fuselage actually shipped thousands of fasteners in crates instead of installing them in the plane. Or how Boeing struggled to properly engineer its outsourced parts among global production teams "Sheth wants to be clear. Key customers continue to take delivery of the 787s and he believes Boeing will find an answer to its battery woes. But consider this: At least based on the picture painted by public documents, the 787 is not only as complex as any other modern integrated software and hardware device -- say, an iPhone, a Surface tablet or a Prius. It is more complex. That means real-world trial and error debugging will almost certainly be required to smooth out the 787's kinks. But unlike Priuses, iPhones and Tablets, there is no culture of recalls, updates and reboots in aviation. With the Dreamliner, the beta testing gets done at 35,000 feet. "We are in uncharted territory," Sheth said.

San Onofre: One Leaks, the Other Doesn't… Yet
11:30 am in Uncategorized by Gregg Levine
For those who thought that, with the new year, nuclear power had turned a page and put its "annus horribilis" behind it–as if the calendar were somehow the friend America's aging reactors–let's take a quick look at January 2012.
First, a glance across the Pacific, where the month began with the revelation that the Japanese government purposely downplayed their assessments of the Fukushima disaster–hiding the worst projected scenarios from the public from soon after the March earthquake by classifying the documents as personal correspondence–and ended with discovery of yet another large leak of radioactive water from one of the crippled reactors.
Closer to home, the lone reactor at Wolf Creek, Kansas, was shutdown on January 13 after the failure of a main generator breaker was followed by a still-unexplained loss of power to an electrical transformer. Diesel generators kicked in to run the safety systems until external power was restored, but the plant remains offline while a Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspection team tries to figure out what went wrong.
On the morning of January 30, a power failure caused a reactor at Exelon's Byron Generating Station to scram, which in turn required a wee bit of venting: Read the rest of this entry →

Very nice fan Lorraine from Cobourg, ON– Verified Buyer We really like the look and the wall switch is great, the only con is we had to replace the bulb almost immediately after installation . Hopefully the bulb was mishandled during shipping or installation. Halogen bulbs are picky. |
Contemporary and Very Functional! cynthia from Pasadena, MD– Verified Buyer These fans were the perfect contemporary accessory for our studio loft with an aviation theme, but with their smart styling they can fit into any conemporary decorating theme. Not only are they sharp looking, they are also very functional. |
Nautical Flair Mirelis from Fairfield, NJ– Verified Buyer I wanted a fan that had clean lines, but it needed to be large for a 2-story high ceiling space and this looks fantastic. Arrived quickly and I'm happy with the style. It's hard to see online but in the middle under the light, there's a subtle compass detail which gives it the coastal vibe I was after. |
Love this fan! Zion from UT– Verified Buyer Purchased this fan for our large outdoor pavilion this past spring. It works perfectly and the light is reminiscent of a ship's light. Our contractor lost our remote however .... so we need to investigate how to order another! |
Perfect! Suzanne from Columbia, SC– Verified Buyer This fan is unique. I wasn't bake to find anything like this in my local store. Shipping was fast and the quality and price just perfect! |
Contemporary fan Sandy from NC– Verified Buyer The globe arrived broken and the company shipped another one ASAP. Very easy to work with and we love the fan! |
My best pool fan ahmed from winter park, FL– Verified Buyer Looks great big and nice. All my friends and family ask about it. |
Unique Ceiling fan Patricia from Avenue, MD– Verified Buyer The ceiling fan surpassed my expectations. Sleek nautical feel. Great for addition on the water side of the house. Add to the description hand held remote not included. |
Just an OK ceiling fan Sally from Hillsboro, MO– Verified Buyer While it was placed in a vaulted ceiling it does not produce much air for size and 5 blades. Looks nice however. Would not purchase again. |
Actually 5 stars Karen from Villa Hills For some reason, only one star was offered. This fan is great! We love the clean lines, and finish. |

Photo credit: Sumio Yamada By Stuart Cornwell: When all was said and done, Carl The Cobra Froch had successfully defended his WBC super-middleweight title with a split decision over American Andre The Matrix Dirrell in his hometown of Nottingham, England. With Dirrell being deducted a point for pulling or holding or other such messiness in the 10th round, the final scores were 115-112, 115-112 for Froch, and 114-113 Dirrell. Yet while I dont think Andre Dirrell was the victim of a outrageous robbery bad by the historical standards us boxing fans are uncomfortably accustomed to, I do believe he suffered from an unfair and ultimately inexcusable hometown decision. There are a lot of people (Carl Froch foremost among them) saying Dirrell did not deserve the decision because he spent too much of the fight running, holding and complaining to the referee. On the face of it that sounds like a reasonable assertion. The inclusion of such tactics is usually enough to prevent a challenger producing a championship-winning performance. But when the challenger is facing a champion whose defence of his title consists of hitting thin air and blocking punches with his face, then it is fair to say he is doing enough. Apart from a wrestling throw that put Dirrell on his back in the 5th round, and some scathing comments against Dirrells negativity in the post-fight interview, I witnessed almost nothing resembling an effective attack from Froch all night. An occasional punch landed, some rough-house tactics and an intimidating presence may have been enough to throw the young upstart Dirrell into an overly negative mode from time to time, but not enough to claim 7 of the 12 rounds (as two of the three judges reckoned) against a fighter who landed the greater number of punches, landed the cleaner punches and actually avoided incoming punches. For sure, Dirrell ran too much and complained too much to really impress us fans with his performance overall. But when he stopped running it was almost always him doing the scoring, not Froch - with Froch simply stopping blows with his head and trying desperately to land something solid of his own. The most promising thing about Dirrell was that he seemed to grow during the fight and showed flashes of heart and fire later on by getting the better of Froch in a few short exchanges. If Dirrell can double his confidence and learn to accept, without complaint, the rough stuff that should be expected from opponents at this level, he might prove to be a special fighter. Froch, on the other hand, looks to have improved none on the glaring weakness displayed in his previous two title fights - namely, his almost non-existent defence. Froch claimed afterwards it was an easy comfortable nights work for him, and that he was never hit with anything hurtful, and that he never got a real fight out of Dirrell - and maybe hes right on all counts- but he fought the full 12 rounds without scoring the knockdowns or knockout such a tough-man style and attitude should require to have made him the winner last night. As a pure fighting man Carl Froch probably is superior to Andre Dirrell at this stage, but over 12 rounds of somewhat unsatisfactory boxing I swear he should have lost out to his slicker, quicker rival last night. Carl Froch may have been the beneficiary of a hometown decision last night but his next fight in this Super Six series will be against Mikkel Kessler in the Danes own backyard. Before that we will see what happens when Kessler and Andre Ward square off next month, opening their own campaigns in the Super Six tournament. The benchmark for Kessler and Ward is certainly Arthur Abrahams solid and dramatic performance against Jermain Taylor last night, and not Frochs dubious win or Dirrells minimally-admirable performance in disputed defeat. I reserve judgment on Wards chances of beating Kessler because I simply dont know enough about the young American at this stage to offer up any credible opinion. Still, I am quite confident that Kessler can beat Froch - and relatively easily - regardless of whether or not hes upset next month by Ward. And Kessler wont be needing any hometown cooking to accomplish the task. Froch simply gets hit too much. Dirrells next engagement is against Abraham and he probably needs all the good fortune he was deprived of last night to be carried over in lieu to that one. I wont write him off completely because I sense hes a young fighter who could and should improve from fight to fight, and his god-given abilities (speed, reflexes) are remarkable, but in Abraham hell be up against a fighter just as tough, strong, powerful, intimidating and determined as Froch - but a tight defence on top !

One in Three: Silenced Stories of Survivors of Sexual Assault and Women Who Have Abortions |
By: RH Reality Check Friday February 15, 2013 5:14 pm |
Valentine's Day is a day when we are supposed to remind those we care about that we love them. But it is also V-Day, a day where people around the world share stories of physical and sexual violence against women in order to remind the world that we care about women and will not tolerate rape, battery, and abuse. This year marks the 15th Anniversary of V-day and the 40th Anniversary of Roe V. Wade. So I thought it would be appropriate to draw a connection between the silenced stories of the 1 in 3 women worldwide who have experienced physical and sexual violence and the silenced stories of 1 in 3 women in the United States who will have an abortion in their lifetime.

Cruise Shipping Asia-Pacific 2014, Hong Kong
Cruise Shipping Asia-Pacific 2014 from Cruise Shipping Miami on Vimeo.
Cruise Shipping Asia-Pacific
November 20-21, 2014
Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre, Hong Kong
The 4th edition of Cruise Shipping Asia-Pacific came to a close in Hong Kong on 21 November, concluding that the pan-Asian region has established its place as both an exciting and prosperous market within the industry.
Attendee numbers exceeded 1,100 for the world's only annual event focused on the entire Asia-Pacific cruise market. Forty-seven exhibitors from across the globe descended to showcase their products and demonstrate innovations on the exhibition floor; from cruise ports to tour organisers, all relevant segments of the cruise value chain were represented.
The State of the Cruise Industry in Asia session opened the 2014 edition of Cruise Shipping Asia Pacific. Delegates heard how the number of passengers from Asia cruising this year is expected to be 1.7m, rising to 2.1m in 2015. Further optimism for a rise in passengers came from Zinan Liu, chairman of the recently formed CLIA North Asia and vice president, China and Asia for Royal Caribbean Cruises Limited, with a projection that growth could reach between 3.1m and 6.6m cruise passengers by 2020. Genting Hong Kong EVP for Marine Operations and Shipbuilding, Michael Hackman, suggested this could be higher; with as many as 8m passengers expected by 2020.

Are you fun?
Do you like to laugh?
Are memories important to you?
If you can answer "YES!" to these questions, you're the perfect client for me! Because if you prefer to sit in a small studio, stare straight into a camera, and say "cheese," then perhaps we should say our goodbyes now. But since you said "YES!" let's move on.
Introducing "No Session Fee"** Custom Photography –
Now there is just ONE package — easy, fully-loaded, and created to suit your needs (and wants!).
One Easy Package – $199
Collections begin at $600.
Note: $10 from every session is currently being donated to my beautiful friend's medical needs. More information can be found HERE.
All sessions require a $75 deposit. This is to reserve your session date and is then applied to your package or whichever collection you choose after seeing your online proofs in your own private online album.
What IS Custom Photography?
Custom Photography varies from photographer to photographer, but basically it is just what it sounds like it is: photography that is customized for YOU. You aren't sitting in a studio with your hands on each other's shoulders, baby propped up at an awkward angle, staring into some distant time and space. With custom photography, we make a plan, meet at a location, laugh, have fun, and make beautiful memories. In the end, you also get a wide selection of photos to choose from, not just 3 or 4 poses.
Ready to book your session?
That's great! But first, please download and review the package and collections available, browse this site and get a feel for my style, and give me a call to chat about any questions or ideas you have. (If you're not the call-on-the-phone type, email me!)
*If a Sunday is the ONLY day you have open, or the day you're planning your wedding for a Sunday, please don't hesitate to ask me about your particular date.
**"No Session Fee" does NOT apply to any type of special event, birth, or party photography. Locations farther than one hour's distance may incur travel fees of $25.
Please review my calendar for possible dates, when I'm closed, and to check if your wedding date might already be booked. For on-location sessions outdoors, I typically book either first thing in the morning or in the last hours of the day. For indoor newborn, any time of the day works. When contacting me, feel free to suggest an open date on my calendar.

10+ years in Corporate America working within the Customer Service and Telecomm industries gave me insight into the customer experience.
A life long love of music and pop culture gave me the fortitude to try my creative hand at writing and performing, music/media production, artist development, animation and voiceovers, putting up stages, modeling, casting, talent acquisition and more.
Natural curiosity, a deep need to know, and a desire to hear the story of those I came in contact with, helped develop an acute sense of customer experience and to digitally and visually communicate their stories.
Eventually, this led to the work I enjoy most: Finding visionairies and leaders in unusual places, thinking creatively, planning strategically and consulting with business execs, artists, visionaries and those exploring the Feng Shui of abundance.

Printer Icons
Sorry if this has been discussed, "search" was not very friendly to me.
How can I assign custom printer icons to each of my printers? Thanks. |
My System Specs |
03 Nov 2009 | #2 |
Its a bit tricky but I know of only one way. Goto
C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Device Metadata\dmrccache\en-US Where YOURNAME is your user account name. There you will see subfolders corresponding to your installed devices. Within each sub folder you'll see a folder named 'DeviceInformation'. Within that folder is the icon for your device. You can either replace the icon itself. Or, you can edit the DeviceInfo.xml file and specify a different icon to use. Let me know if I need to clarify any steps. |

Disk4mat - you are the man!
Worked perfectly! Well, almost. When I replaced the "default" device.ico with a new icon with the same name, the new device.ico actually changed to the old printer icon. Weird. Maybe something to do with something open. At any rate, editing the .xml to a different name, the name of the original new .ico that I moved into the folder, worked like a charm. Thanks again! |
My System Specs |
03 Nov 2009 | #4 |
Your welcome! The reason the icon didnt change with the same name is a bug actually that existed in Vista. When the same name is used Windows renders the icon from the icon cache.
But glad you got that working and thanks for the rep. Much appreciated. |

Same problem
Hello, I am having the same problem, but I can't seem to find my printer in that folder. I just added a wireless printer to my network and when I pull up the CP the old printer that was a HP Deskjet 3940 (small printer) now has the Multifunction printer icon, which should be for the new Epson Workforce printer and the Epson was given the small printer icon of the old HP. I went to the en-us folder as you described, but only found my old printer info there with the MF icon. I could not find my new Epson in there at all. I found: my laptop, my mouse, my old printer, a scandisk, and a generic receiver (I think this is the router?)
Also, if I could find that folder, can you explain just how you go about changing the icon? I noticed you talked about editing the xml. file, but where do I find the other icon to exchange? Thanks, Meri |
My System Specs |
01 Apr 2010 | #6 |
Well, to start. You only have to edit the XML file if you want to use an icon located some place else. Otherwise, you ony need replace the existing icon.
Its hard to say which folder will hold the device (your printer) in what folder. It will be one of the ones listed under... C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Device Metadata\dmrccache\en-US The Epson should be there. Even if the printer is offline or not connected. |

And, there are only 4 entries in the en-US folder with 2 having to do with installed printers. THere are 8 printers/copiers installed now. How can one determine which printer/copier icon one is working with?

On the Gardening Forums it can mean that you've included the name of a vendor that they've banned from using the forums. There's an on-line nursery which operates out of Florida that is on the banned list - I think it was because they were marketing on the forum - and if you try to type their name into a posting it will bounce back as "illegal string". For example, you can't say "Wow, I just got a beautiful hibiscus at (name of store) this weekend!" |

Radhika Kumaraswamy speaks to BT about her comeback as a producer and finding domestic bliss with former CM HD Kumaraswamy
When she chose to recently emerge from a five-year break from the public eye with the surname Kumaraswamy, Radhika silenced her critics. It also put to rest the speculation about her relationship with former Karnataka CM HD Kumaraswamy that has been abounding since she gave up acting in 2006. Radhika Kumaraswamy's return to films this year has been as sudden as her decision to give it all up at the peak of her career. But she's elated to be back in showbiz, albeit as a producer, with her maiden venture Lucky starring Ramya and Yash.Stay updated on the go with Times of India News App. Click here to download it for your device.

From the beginning, women, along with men,
were created to rule. Indeed, the first woman ruler was Eve. In Genesis 1,
immediately following the Creation, God commanded both Eve and Adam to "rule over the fish in the sea
and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the
ground." Like men, women were created to work, to steward, and to lead. While
the Fall—and the human systems, institutions, and mindsets that followed—surely
complicated matters, that original design and call have not changed.
Reflections on Religious Freedom Around the World
January 28, 2015
In the past few weeks, Cornerstone contributors have assessed
the state of religious freedom in various parts of the world, including China,
Israel-Palestine, and India. Each country has a unique history and modern
political dynamic that forms a nuanced environment toward religious freedom—an environment that is often best understood when experienced firsthand. That's why this week on Cornerstone, research assistants
at the Religious Freedom Project share their experiences during their time abroad and offer distinct perspectives that highlight issues concerning religious freedom in various regions of
the world.
Why Catholic Social Thought Matters for the Future of Global Development

Muslim Minorities in Europe
January 22, 2015
Recent government actions, such as Austria's new law that allows only one authorized German-language translation of the Qur'an and bans foreign funding of Muslim organizations, along with a circumcision ban in Germany, an ongoing headscarf ban in France, and a minaret ban
in Switzerland, are just a few examples of how Muslims' religious
freedom is being restricted in western Europe. Please join us on Cornerstone as diverse commentators, including many of the speakers at the Religious Freedom Project's upcoming event on Muslim minorities, explore
the obstacles that European Muslim communities face and what these
challenges mean for the future of religious freedom.
Please also read our related series on Muslim minorities in the United States.
The Challenges and Opportunity of Women in Religious Leadership: The Episcopal Example
Katharine Jefferts Schori
January 15, 2015
Women have been leaders from the beginning of consciousness—learning where to find edible and healing plants and leading others to gather them, and passing on that knowledge to future generations. That is at least part of what Eve is up to in Genesis. Like Miriam, women have led celebration, song, and lament throughout time, and tended to bodies before burial as did the Marys of the Gospels. Women have challenged societal injustice with the tools available—words and prophetic actions—the widow to the judge, the Syrophoenician woman Jesus engages, the suffragettes, and women's rights workers over centuries.
Secondary Education in the United Kingdom: a Source of Tension
Christian Faaborg-Andersen
January 15, 2015
In the United Kingdom, the education system is divided into stages. These stages include early foundations years (3-5), primary school (5-11), secondary school (11-18), and tertiary education (18+). There are two types of secondary school that British children can attend: the fee-bearing, highly controversial public schools or the more common, state-funded private schools. Although only a minute proportion of the British population attend public school, the institution has provided fertile ground for charged political debates on inequality in the United Kingdom.
Hong Kong: Shopping Mecca of the East
Saumik Rahman
January 15, 2015
Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are the largest metropolitan areas within the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. As seen in this map, most of Hong Kong's population is densely packed into the southern portions of the region. These past few weeks, most of my explorations have taken place in these areas. As I travelled, I have noticed how Hong Kong is structured around a culture of consumerism. Most buildings here contain large expanses of malls. Hundreds of shops line the hallways within buildings—each store is packed to the brim with locals and foreigners alike. It becomes easy to see why Hong Kong is considered one of the top shopping destinations in East Asia.
The Christian Negus and the Stick: A Reflection as a Muslim at Mass
Emna Baccar
January 12, 2015
At the advent of Islam, as is
common with new faiths, many adversaries tried to stifle Islam's spread by
violently persecuting its followers. Worried about the weaker members of
society, the Prophet Muhammad urged his followers to migrate to Abyssinia,
where the new Muslims would find a Christian king who ruled his kingdom with
kindness and justice. Just as they expected, the Negus, as he was called,
welcomed them warmly and promised them a peaceful life in his kingdom.
Business and Religious Freedom
January 12, 2015
A host of recent controversies—including the resignation of Brendan
Eich as Mozilla CEO, Abercrombie and Fitch's firing of a Muslim woman
for wearing a hijab, and many others—raise basic questions about
the nature and extent of employees' religious rights while on the job. Responses to this topic will answer the following questions: How would you describe religious rights on the job? Should businesses be able to fire employees for their peaceful religious views and practices or is this a violation of First Amendment rights, or those rights established under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act?
Returning to the Sisters and Challenging My Convictions
Emily Coccia
January 12, 2015
Hall, located in Malvern, Pennsylvania, is a home for retired, sick, and recovering
Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM). After attending an
IHM-run high school and grade school, I have a close connection to the order,
crediting them with much of my educational and spiritual upbringing. Throughout
high school, I volunteered at Camilla Hall; a group of us would go over every
couple of weeks to deliver meals and visit the sisters, taking care to check in
on those without local families or frequent visitors. Although this volunteer
work played an important role in my high school life, I have not had the chance
to go back since my freshman year of college.
