[This is now documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb821132.aspx]
[This sample is now part of the Outlook MAPI Code Samples!]
In the Outlook 2003 Integration API, we documented the Replication API. This is a nifty API for implementing replication between a wrapped PST and your own custom back end, which should be a great way to simplify implementation of a MAPI Message Store Provider without incurring all the pain involved in writing one from scratch. Unfortunately, we neglected to document how to create a wrapped PST. This documentation (which should eventually be part of the MSDN) corrects this oversight. Much thanks to Fergus Wilson of Meridio for his assistance in testing this sample.
Please post back any problems you encounter with this sample or the docs so I can correct them. Thanks!
The sample code can be downloaded here: http://stephengriffin.members.winisp.net/wrappst/wrappst.zip
Wrapping the PST provider in preparation for using the Replication API The Replication API can only be used in conjunction with a Wrapped PST provider. This document defines a Wrapped PST provider and gives instructions for constructing one.
Wrapped PST Provider: A wrapped PST provider is a custom MAPI message store provider which uses the PST provider as the back end for storing data. Most functions in a basic wrapped PST provider will proxy their arguments directly to the underlying PST provider. This allows the developer doing the wrapping to focus on the portions of the provider specific to their business needs without needing to invest time in writing a store provider from scratch.
Some functions and classes do need special logic in them to inform the PST provider that it has been wrapped so the Replication API can function. This document outlines what needs to be done in these functions.
The remaining code in a wrapped PST can be used to change default behavior, such as supporting additional properties not native to a PST by overriding GetProps, or allowing OpenEntry to do special processing on a message before handing it back to the client.
Constants: The following constants are used in this documentation. Note that some changes and clarifications have been made to the constant definitions given in the Replication API.
#define MDB_OST_LOGON_UNICODE ((ULONG) 0x00000800) #define MDB_OST_LOGON_ANSI ((ULONG) 0x00001000) // OffLineFileInfo typedef struct { ULONG ulVersion; // Structure version MAPIUID muidReserved; ULONG ulReserved; DWORD dwAlloc; // Number of primary source keys DWORD dwReserved; LTID ltidReserved1; LTID ltidReserved2; } OLFI; #define PR_OST_OLFI PROP_TAG(PT_BINARY, 0x7C07) #define OLFI_VERSION 0x01 // UID of an NST provider const MAPIUID g_muidProvPrvNST = { 0xE9, 0x2F, 0xEB, 0x75, 0x96, 0x50, 0x44, 0x86, 0x83, 0xB8, 0x7D, 0xE5, 0x22, 0xAA, 0x49, 0x48 }; // This is a clarification of the definitions of PXIHC and PXICC // mentioned in the Replication API DECLARE_MAPI_INTERFACE_PTR(IExchangeImportHierarchyChanges,PXIHC); DECLARE_MAPI_INTERFACE_PTR(IExchangeImportContentsChanges,PXICC); // It is essential that the FEID, MEID and SKEY structures // be wrapped in this pack pragma or they will be the wrong size #pragma pack(1) struct FEID { BYTE abFlags[4]; MAPIUID muid; WORD placeholder; LTID ltid; }; struct MEID { BYTE abFlags[4]; MAPIUID muid; WORD placeholder; LTID ltidFld; LTID ltidMsg; }; struct SKEY { GUID guid; BYTE globcnt[6]; }; #pragma pack()
MSProviderInit This is the entry point when your provider is being loaded by Outlook. Any message store provider needs to implement this function and expose it as an entry point in the store provider's DLL. This is a well known function name which does not change.
ServiceEntry This is the entry point when your provider is being configured, such as through the Mail Control Panel. The prototype for this function is MSGSERVICEENTRY, but the name to be used is not mandated. Instead, it is advertised in the PR_SERVICE_ENTRY_NAME property of your profile. In this documentation, we use the name ServiceEntry. Be sure to expose the function as an entry point in the store provider's DLL.
CMSProvider This is the wrapped implementation of IMSProvider. It is required to wrap this interface to provide some special processing needed to make the wrapped PST work.
Member functions not documented here can just pass their parameters into the underlying wrapped object. The IUnknown functions are implemented normally, making sure that the reference count on the underlying object is maintained.
The constructor should accept the LPMSPROVIDER object being wrapped.
The following functions need special handling: IMSProvider::Logon
CSupport This is the wrapped implementation of IMAPISupport. It is required to wrap this interface to provide some special processing needed to make the wrapped PST work.
The constructor should accept the LPMAPISUP object being wrapped and a LPPROFSECT object which will be used in OpenProfileSection.
The following functions needs special handling: IMAPISupport::OpenProfileSection
When pbNSTGlobalProfileSectionGuid is requested, return the profile section which has been cached in your implementation.
The PST provider will attempt to set a status row with PR_IDENTITY_DISPLAY, PR_IDENTITY_ENTRYID, and PR_IDENTITY_SEARCH_KEY. These values will be based on the user specified in PR_PROFILE_USER and assume the user has an EX address type. If this status row is allowed, then later calls to QueryIdentity can fail if no transport can handle this address type. This failure can in turn prevent creation of some items like contacts and appointments. Simply clearing these values will fix this problem. A more advanced fix would be to set a custom status row. Even more advanced would be to wrap the IMSLogon object returned in IMSProvider::Logon to implement a custom or wrapped status entry.
Using the Replication API The documentation of the Replication State Machine describes how to use the API to perform synchronization between an external store and the wrapped PST. See the functions DoSync, SyncDownloadFolders and SyncUploadFolders for sample code illustrating the API.
[10/6/05 - 10:39 AM] Clarified IMSProvider::Logon
[10/17/05 - 5:45PM] Added IMAPISupport::ModifyStatusRow, updated sample code
[11/11/05] Fixed sample URL
Is there a way to write a message store that will wrap/replace the default personal folder in outlook or does it work only with exchange?
Never mind. You can use Tools->Email Accounts in outlook to set default personal store.
Hi, i have try to use your sample in OL2007 for now. When i add a new data file and select Wrapped PST, some questions:
- By default, the Inbox, Outbox, ... folders area listed. How can i custom the sample code to add some folders and hide inbox, outbox, .... folder ?
- I'm going to map my folder to a URL but i it does not display. I have followed the Microsoft KB to enable non-default folder homepage before.
Please take a look at Microsoft CRM for Outlook client. When add a data file for Microsoft CRM, it does not display Inbox, Outbox,.... It displays the Account, Leads,.... folder by default, and we can change the homepage URL for that folders.
Many thanks.
Another question: I'm a new to VC++ (old in C#, VB :D), can you remove the Add-in from your sample ? I only need the Store Provider code.
So many thanks.
I'm following the WrapPST sample to programmatically create wrapped PST stores in the current Outlook session. Everything is working great apart from where I am trying to block stores from being manually created when a user goes to File->New->Outlook Data File in Outlook.
In ServiceEntry, I'm intercepting the MSG_SERVICE_CREATE and MSG_SERVICE_CONFIGURE contexts and returning an error (e.g. MAPI_E_NO_SUPPORT) if either a window handle is provided to ServiceEntry or if the SERVICE_UI_ALLOWED flag is passed through. This successfully blocks the request in Outlook 2007, but causes Outlook 2003 to crash.
Does anybody know why this would happen? I've tried returning various MAPI error codes, but they all cause Outlook to crash.
What caveats should we know about pst files sizes? I assume we are using exchange mapi and will have a 2gig limit? Even if we can use the unicode pst, what if we wanted to sync a span of pst files? Is that possible?
Somehow i'm thinking 'you-get-what-you-get'.
Hi , Can i use the Replication API to sync with my server which is not MS Exchange Server.Thanks
Yes - that's the point of the replication API - to make it easier to sync from whatever source you want.
Hi, i just wonder how MAPI spooler know how to route a new incoming message to my custom message store in which it is not default message store?
As far as i know, the MAPI spooler will call the tranportLogon::StartMessage function with a lpMessage pointer which is from default store. Correct me if i'm wrong.
You control the replication API - deliver the messages yourself and don't bother with the spooler.
what are those SetTopKey and GetSourceKey function for?
I developing a custom transport provider. In the case, do i need to make any changes to adapt using Replication API at my transport provider.
calling the following in DoSync (Provider.cpp) is returning E_NOINTERFACE. Any tips on what might be happening?
hRes = lpMDB->QueryInterface(IID_IPSTX, (void**)&pPstx);
Sorry, I should have mentioned that I'm getting this error is in the wrapped PST sample loaded in Outlook 2k3 SP3. I can see that the IMSgStoreVtbl doesn't support the interface but I'm scratching my heads to why not :)
I'm using the wrapped pst provider with Outlook 2007 but I can't find what I'm looking for.
I need to know when something in outlook is changed (created, moved, deleted or just edited). Such as folders, contacts, calendars, notes etc. So I can manipulate the changed item before it is saved to the .nst file. Can I do that with wrapped pst?

Honeybee Life Span
Name: kavya Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
what is the life span of honeybee
Honey bees pass through four distinct life stages: the egg, larva, pupa and adult. The process is called complete metamorphosis, which means that the form of the bee changes drastically from the larva to the adult. Passing through the immature stages takes 21 days for worker bees. On the first day, the queen bee lays a single egg in each cell of the comb. The egg generally hatches into a larva on the fourth day. The larva is a legless grub that resembles a tiny white sausage. The larva is fed a mixture of pollen and nectar called beebread. On the ninth day the cell is capped with wax and the larva transforms into the pupa. The pupa is a physical transition stage between the amorphous larva and the hairy, winged adult. The pupa doesn't eat. On day 21, the new adult worker bee emerges.
The queen can live from 2-5 years. The drone lives 40-50 days. Drones are male bees. Most of the bees are workers.They are females. They work hard making honey and stinging for defense! They live from 1-4 months. The lifecycle of the worker bee: Egg (3 days), Larva (6 days), Pupa (12 days). This is a total of 21 days from egg (baby) to adult worker.

The National Circus School Foundation Bursary Program
Vital Financial Aid for Aspiring Circus Artists
Skills, talent, and determination are the only criteria for entrance into the National Circus School. It is the principle of the School and the Foundation that no qualified student who wishes to pursue their studies at the School will be unable to attend or be required to withdraw from a program at the National Circus School for financial reasons.
The NSCF Bursary is a non-repayable grant that is awarded on the basis of financial need and provides vital financial support to students who cannot handle the full cost of tuition and related expenses.
Established in 2006, the Bursary program is made possible through an endowment created through donations from individuals, foundations and corporations. This capital is invested in perpetuity and generates yearly revenue which provides a long-term source of income to disburse bursaries each year.
If you don't think you have the financial resources to attend the National Circus School, the NSC Foundation Bursary may be a vital source of financial support for you.
Program Highlights
• The Program is open to all full time students, both Canadian and international students.
• Since 2006, over 75 % of students seeking financial aid have qualified and have received a bursary.
• On average each year, 3 out of 10 students enrolled in the college and high-school programs receive a bursary from the Foundation.
• Bursary amounts disbursed since 2006 have ranged from $500 to $4,500 resulting in an average bursary value of nearly $2,000.
• Students must be registered and enrolled in a National Circus School program at the time of application in order to be eligible.
• Applications for students under the age of 18 enrolled in the high school-circus arts studies or preparatory program must be completed by consenting parents.
Note: Students who apply for and receive government loans from their province of origin are still admissible to the Foundation Bursary Program.
How to apply?
To be considered for a bursary, eligible students must complete the application form and include the required documents. Information provided on the applications will be tabulated and undergo a confidential process of evaluation. Recommendations will be reviewed by the Bursary Evaluation Committee, who is appointed each year by the Foundation Board of Directors. nommé par le conseil d'administration de la Fondation.
Application Deadline : October 1, 2014


text: The best way to market less common natural and organic ingredients would be to let the name of the service grab the client's attention. For example, Ginkgo Biloba Anti-aging Treatment—such a name showcases the natural ingredient while immediately explaining what the service will deliver. Secondly, explain in simple-yet-appealing language how the natural ingredients work to provide results. Spa clients often select services based on how great they sound on the menu. It would also help to highlight that you have new natural and organic services on your spa's website and in other easily adjusted marketing media, as well. Marketing the new services as "for a limited time" will help to draw clients in to try it and allows the spa the option to keep it permanently or remove it from the menu if it isn't working.


text: August 19, 2006 Patriots A Great Remedy For Fading Sox BY: Kevin Rousseau We needed that, now didn't we? After witnessing the bag job that the Red Sox turned in during the first three games against the Yankees, the Patriots rolled into Foxboro on Saturday night and cleaned the Cardinals' collective clocks by a score of 30-3. Many of you in the pink hat nouveau Sox clique will not believe it. But there was a time in the not too distant past when the Sox annually began to fade in August and the lonely eyes of New England desperately turned towards Foxboro hoping for some glimmer of a decent local pro team. The past was the present at the Turn-Back-The-Clock special billed as the Patriots second pre-season game against the Cardinals. Tom Brady reminded us why he is so special. Corey Dillon looked tough. The defense played solid. And the kicking game was an afterthought. Perhaps the best compliment you can ever give a pre-season game is that it held your interest into the third quarter. Saturday night's game suceeded in doing just that thanks to Tom Brady's ho-hum flawless play along with his backup Matt Cassel's improved showing as compared to a week earlier against the Falcons. It's an open secret that the Patriots see the Red Sox' grip on this region. The local football entry wins three championships and sets an all-time consecutive victory record but all anyone can talk about is Mike Timlin's ineffectiveness coming out of the bullpen. Not this year. Forget worrying about where Eric Hinske is going to play. It's time to ask yourself if Bam Childress can turn into a mini Troy Brown and whether Tully Banta-Cain is ready to become a bona fide speed rusher. In some ways I'm relieved that the wheels have fallen off for the Red Sox at such an early date. We won't have to fool ourselves through September and early October that the pitching is good enough to make it back to the World Series. We'll now have free time to check out some new shows or - Lord forbid - spend extra time with our families. And maybe Red Sox ticket demand for 2007 will subside to the point where I can purchase two tickets where the seats are - get ready for this - actually next to one another. Frankly, going to Fenway Park the last two years has become a chore. Winning the whole darn thing in 2004 has turned Fenway into Boston's coolest nightclub. Expensive cover charges and drinks doesn't stop the chic crowd from heading over from their normally appointed rounds in the Back Bay and clogging up all the good seats. Does anybody actually watch the ballgame anymore or is everyone too busy waving their silly Papi/NESN signs or talking about how they ran into Coco Crisp at Au Bon Pain? Meanwhile, the Patriots train rolls on. No soap operas, excuses or side shows. Even when a key player holds out as Deion Branch has done, the number of arrows slung are kept to a minimum on both sides of the negotiating table. Oh, and did I mention that they talked a retired Hall-of-Famer into coming out of retirement for a part-time role? Instead of dividing our attention and loyalties between the Red Sox and Patriots this fall as we have done for the last three seasons, we will now be focused. It will make our lives easier. Production at the office will go up. Fewer awkward conversations in the first-floor men's room as I'm washing my hands about the latest Sox collapse? (You wash your hands, right?) Think of it this way. The Red Sox of 2006 is the girl who looks good out of the blocks but after a bunch of dates loses her luster and isn't as gorgeous as you initially remember her being. Meanwhile, the Patriots is the girl who treats everyone nicely, is consistently pretty on a day-to-day basis and is someone you can bring home to mom. Call up your mom and tell her you want to invite a new girl over for Sunday night dinner - the 2006 New England Patriots.

Connecticut College News
Women's Hockey prepares for first ever NESCAC final four appearance
03/5/2009Lauren Mellen '09 had 53 saves in the Camels' 2-1 victory over Trinity in the NESCAC quarterfinals Saturday. The Camels will make their first appearance in the NESCAC final four this weekend.
Senior goalie Lauren Mellen made her 53rd save with just 25 seconds left in Saturday's quarterfinal game against Trinity securing the first ever women's hockey NESCAC playoff victory in Connecticut College history. Mellen, who was named NESCAC Women's Hockey Player of the Week, led the sixth-ranked Camels (9-13-3) to a 2-1 victory over the third-seeded Bantams, avenging two regular season losses in which Connecticut College was outscoured 7-1.
"There is no doubt that Lauren was at the top of her game this weekend," head coach Kristin Steele said. "She gave us a fantastic effort and held strong under extreme pressure from Trinity."
The Camel's goals were scored by sophomore Brigid O'Gorman and junior Erin Davey, who earned NESCAC Player of the Week honors Feb. 2. O'Gorman put Connecticut College on the board first, finding the back of the net in the first period. In the second period, Davey gave the Camels the lead for good with her 14th goal of the season.
This weekend, the team will make its first appearance in the NESCAC final four at Amherst College. The Camels will take on top-ranked Amherst at noon on Saturday. The winner will play for the championship Sunday at 2 p.m.

Also, I thought it would copy the raw data, so that the restored version would have the same filesystem and be exactly the same size ? If you _do_ use dd as either the root user or a member of the 'disk' group, backing up the MBR is probably a good idea. Personally, I haven't backed up the MBR since I last used an AmigaOne (for that, I had to use dd to write the new kernel to the disk - all too easy to make mistakes). For most of us, it's easier to use tar. Among other things, that will allow you to restore only a single file, or to 'restore' all of the data to a different place, or a different underlying filesystem type. After tarring up the filesystem or data, you can then copy it to CD or DVD. You can also copy it to a usb stick if that suits you (the files in the gzipped or bzip2'd tarball will maintain their wnerships and permissions even though the tarball itself is on a FAT filesystem). For general backups, I use a rough and ready system of scripts based on rsync over nfs to a 'staging' area (with a flag to indicate if the backup completed - they're run from fcrontab, but I might switch the machine off while it is backing up), with a separate rsync to my equivalent of Generation Data Groups [1] on RAID1. Some of the underlying backups are then tarred up and written to tape (for data) or DVD (for root filesystems). Most people probably don't need this much overhead and it doesn't solve all the problems (in my case, the tape drive I chose is now obsolete). However you choose to do this, think about what sorts of problems you want to address (deleted files, changes that turn out to be undesirable, disk failure, ...) and how you will restore (for reverting undesirable changes, you also need to consider how you will identify which files to revert if you are not rolling back to a previous version of the system or directory). The 'policies' for backing up user data and the system itself are usually different, which is one reason why a separate filesystem for /home can be helpful (it also simplifies building your next LFS when the current system reaches its best-before date). ĸen 1. For an explanation of the real thing, see http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/basics/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.zos.zconcepts/zconcepts_175.htm My attempt is considerably sketchier, and doesn't use the '(0)' '(+1)' or '(-1)' identifiers which make GDGs such a boon in JCL. -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce

History of Accessibility in Pennsylvania State Parks
Through the years, Pennsylvania State Parks has worked to make our facilities and activities accessible. With the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a comprehensive self-evaluation and transition plan has been done for each state park and recommendations have been made on how to bring all state park facilities into compliance with the ADA. The total cost to bring all state park facilities into compliance has been estimated at $12 million. A copy of each park's plan is located at the park office and in the central office of state parks and is available for public review upon request.
How do you go about finding out which parks can meet your needs if you have a disability? Explore our Web site and look for this symbol which highlights accessible facilities. Or call 888-PA-PARKS to learn more about accessible facilities. All parks are very willing to work with you to make sure you have an enjoyable outdoor experience.
If you are a hunter with a disability and need access to a park hunting area, you can meet with the park manager and discuss arrangements for an accommodation. The same process can be used to access fishing areas. Pennsylvania state parks follow the regulations of the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission and the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
State parks are continually working to make more areas of the parks accessible. Money is committed to upgrade and build more accessible facilities. If you need an accommodation at a park to meet your needs, contact the specific park to see if they have upgraded that facility.

Todd Kane back at Rovers
Blackburn have re-signed young Chelsea defender Todd Kane on loan. Kane has agreed to come back to Ewood Park for a month's loan, the under 19 international had previously been with Rovers earlier in the season when he made four appearances for the club.
Michael Appleton opted to go after the Chelsea youngster because of injuries to Bradley Orr and Adam Henley. "It is great to be back here, I'm really looking forward to it," Kane told Rovers Player. "It was a great experience being here the first time. I really enjoyed it; I got on well with all the lads. "I watched the game against Millwall at the weekend and saw Bradley and Adam get injured so I did have a little thought that they might bring me back, and here I am." Kane has experience being out on loan with Blackburn and Preston North End where he spent a month, but he has yet to break into the Chelsea first team.Source: RoversMAD

Sen. Trent Lott's efforts to rehabilitate his public image were given a valuable boost by the Washington Post, which ran an uncritical profile in its April 14 edition.
Lott (R.-Miss.) lost his position as Senate majority leader after comments he made at a December 2002 party for retiring Sen. Strom Thurmond (R.-S.C.) attracted publicity. Lott had saluted Thurmond's 1948 run for the White House on a Dixiecrat platform staunchly supporting segregation and opposing anti-lynching legislation. Lott declared:
I want to say this about my state. When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of him. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either.
Post reporter Shailagh Murray recalled that outburst as being "what some saw as nostalgic words about segregation." Of course, "some" would interpret them that way--namely, anyone who knew the history of Thurmond's campaign. (He ran under the slogan "Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever!") But the Post chose not to dwell on the past; instead, the article is a tribute to Lott's perseverance: "It takes a certain determination for a politician to fall so spectacularly from grace and then refuse to go away."
If Lott has detractors, Post readers aren't made aware of them, since none are quoted. The closest the article came to a critical point of view was in the very last paragraph, which alleged that some people "who do not care for Lott" think he might be "engaging in advance damage control."
Along with Lott's many critics, Lott's long history of racist affiliation also went unmentioned. The Post's headline, "Lott Puts 'Little Bump' Behind Him," refers to Lott's own assessment of the Thurmond episode as a "little bump" in his career. But this was not the first racist controversy for Lott: In 1998, Lott's connections to the racist Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC) were revealed by FAIR (Extra!, 3=4/99) and several mainstream media outlets--including the Washington Post (12/16/98).
The CCC is the successor to the notoriously racist Citizens Councils, formed in the 1950s to combat desegregation and known as the "uptown Klan." In December 1998, Lott denied any personal knowledge of the CCC, falsely claiming through a spokesperson that his links to the group amounted to a single speech made more than a decade before he'd entered the Senate. But the facts showed otherwise: In 1992, Lott praised the CCC as the keynote speaker at its national convention; in 1997, he met with top CCC leaders in his Senate office; his column appeared throughout the 1990s in the group's newsletter, which once published a cheerful photo of Lott with CCC members who were also his close relatives. Lott was also the guest of honor at a 1982 banquet hosted by a Mississippi chapter of the old white Citizens Councils.
And Lott's legislative record demonstrates that his connections to the CCC were no fluke. In 1978, then-Representative Lott was behind a successful effort to re-instate the citizenship of Confederate President Jefferson Davis (AP, 6/2/78). In 1981, Lott prodded the Reagan administration to restore tax exemptions for Bob Jones University and other segregated private schools (Washington Post, 1/18/82).
In 1982 and 1990, Lott voted against extending the Voting Rights Act, the law passed to ensure that minorities--especially Southern blacks--had access to the voting booth. In 1983, he voted against a national holiday for Martin Luther King Jr., and in 1994 he voted to de-fund the MLK Jr. Holiday commission. In 1990, Lott voted against continuation of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the crown jewel of civil-rights legislation that desegregated education and public accommodations.
And Lott's 2002 support for Thurmond echoed a statement Lott made in 1980: "You know, if we had elected [Strom Thurmond] 30 years ago, we wouldn't be in the mess we are today." Given that opposition to civil rights was the central issue of Thurmond's campaign, the fact that Lott held on to this view for decades speaks volumes about him.
None of this history is mentioned in the Washington Post's fawning profile of Lott, whom the paper calls "one of most of the colorful figures in the Senate." In an interview on CNN (4/14/05), Lott called it "a very nice article." Indeed, it's hard to see anything in the Post article that Lott would find objectionable.

It seems that when it comes to birthdays and cakes, most of us grown ups are like little kids too. So this year, I planned my husbands' cake with a little help from my three young boys.
The night before, as I tucked them in bed, we talked about making an irresistible I-want-to-jump-into-that-cake kind of cake. It had to be something that could WOW him away and could also feel yummy and soft when they dipped his face in it (yep! that was their plan).
This talk led me, once again, to tell the boys stories about cakes from my childhood. Most of those cakes came from Sanborns', a chain of stores that sells almost anything you can imagine: books, DVD's, make-up, electronics, luggage, candies, the best ever chocolate covered raisins, marshmallows and toys. It also has great coffee-shop style restaurants with some of my favorite molletes and enchiladas. Not to forget its perfumeries and pharmacies. It is a serious knock out one-stop-shop. But most importantly, it was, and may still be, one of the most popular places to get a birthday cake.
One of the cakes that left me with a permanent impression went something like this: A couple layers of fluffy and moist vanilla cake, a foamy and soft meringue filling paired with old fashioned strawberry jam and pecans, the same soft meringue layered all over the top, some more pecans and whatever decorations you fancied.
That cake, by itself, made a party happen. It was a creation worthy of its own celebration.
Continue reading A Cake Worthy of its own Celebration
"Bandido!" My late grandfather would scream, with his wide smile and the most endearing eyes, to my youngest son, if he were here to see how Julian messes up the kitchen.
As soon as a thought of cooking appears in my head, he drags a chair, climbs on top, asks what are WE going to make, and without waiting for an answer announces that it is "yo, yo, YO…," who will cook and experiment. I shall be of assistance.
Needless to say, it takes much longer than needed and the kitchen looks messier than my husband likes to see it. But if you ask me, it is worth every extra second and extra spoonful of crumbs on the floor.
Well then, what cake to make for his birthday? Of course chocolate! His brothers tell me with a tone of disbelief. However, I know it has to be spongy, fluffy, gooey, sticky, moist, extra messy, sweet and truly decadent to be worthy of the three candles in its middle.

Harbaughs to meet in Super Bowl as 49ers, Ravens win
UNDATED (AP) — It'll be the Battle of Brothers in New Orleans in two weeks.
John Harbaugh's Baltimore Ravens topped New England 28-13 to win the AFC title game and set up a Super Bowl meeting with his brother Jim. It will be the Ravens first Super Bowl appearance in 12 years.
Joe Flacco threw three second-half touchdown passes while the Ravens shutout Tom Brady and the Patriots offense after intermission. New England held a 13-6 halftime lead. Brady had been 67-0 at home when leading at the intermission.

Earlier Sunday, Jim Harbaugh's San Francisco 49ers staged their own comeback, rallying from 17 points down to beat Atlanta 28-24 in the NFC title game.
Frank Gore scores on a 9-yard run with 8:23 to go to complete the comeback and send San Francisco to the Super Bowl for the sixth time in franchise history. Gore had two touchdowns.
Niners quarterback sensation Colin Kaepernick (KAP'-ur-nihk) shredded the Atlanta defense, completing 16 of 21 passes for 233 yards and a score.
Atlanta raced out to the 17-0 lead early in the second quarter on the strength of two of Matt Ryan's three touchdown passes and led 24-14 at the half.
The 49ers pulled off the biggest comeback victory in an NFC championship game, according to STATS. The previous NFC record was 13 points.
But it's the 49ers that are Super Bowl bound this time. It'll be the sixth appearance in the NFL's big game for the franchise, but the first since 1995. The Niners have won the previous five.

Jordan Hulls added 15 points. Christian Watford scored 14, and the 16-2 Hoosiers hung on after things got tense down the stretch. They led by as much as 17 in the first half but Northwestern twice cut the lead to five points but could get no closer.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o (MAN'-ty TAY'-oh) will be interviewed by Katie Couric, the first on-camera interview given by the All-American since news broke about the dead girlfriend hoax.
Te'o and his parents will appear on Couric's syndicated daytime talk show Thursday. ABC News announced the interview Sunday, but gave no details as to when it will take place and where.
Te'o gave an off-camera interview with ESPN on Friday night. He insists he was the victim of the hoax, not a participant. The Heisman Trophy runner-up said he had an online romance with a woman he never met and in September was informed that the woman died from leukemia.
Famed Miami baseball coach dies
CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Ron Fraser, the coach who was called "the wizard of college baseball" and turned Miami into one of the game's powerhouse programs, has died.
Fraser's family spokesman, Tony Segreto, says he died Sunday morning. Fraser had been battling Alzheimer's disease for many years.
Fraser led Miami to the 1982 and 1985 national titles and took the Hurricanes to the College World Series 12 times. He spent 30 years at the school, retiring in 1992 with 1,271 wins.

Small miners burn up cash
PUBLISHED: 06 Jun 2013 00:05:00 | UPDATED: 06 Jun 2013 15:09:10PUBLISHED: 06 Jun 2013 PRINT EDITION: 06 Jun 2013The Australian Financial Review has identified numerous base metals and coal companies with just over a month left of cash spending available to them.

Australian miners are burning through so much cash that they may be forced to merge with rivals, sell assets cheaply and raise money at discounted rates, a new study says.
New analysis from corporate accounting firm Ernst & Young shows that a sample of 354 listed base metals and coal companies with a market capitalisation of $500 million or less have, on average, just under two years left of spending at the current rate. Some risk collapse, the firm says.
"Many of these companies will need to look at deeply discounted asset sales or dilutive capital raisings and although neither option is attractive, as time passes the situation seems to be deteriorating," Ernst & Young's Justin Walsh said. "Some of the weaker players will no doubt fail."
Respected economist Ross Garnaut recently accused coal companies of "dudding" shareholders by chronically over-investing in projects and failing to acknowledge the decline in global demand.
The dire situation is magnified when the analysis focuses on the 287 companies with a market capitalisation of less than $50 million. They are sitting on an average of just 18 months left of spending, says Ernst & Young.
The analysis, which does not name individual companies, takes cash balances from publicly available financial reports and divides them by the cash spent in the prior 12 months.
One month to go
Using that simple formula, The Australian Financial Review has identified numerous base metals and coal companies with just over a month left of cash spending available to them. Firestone Energy and UCL Resources – both now subject to takeover bids – and Cockatoo Coal are among that group.
Cockatoo Coal's announcement last week of its intention to sell its interest in Hume Coal to Korean giant POSCO was viewed poorly by the market. Its share price dropped 17 per cent in the following two days. Ord Minnett senior financial adviser Angus Bligh said Cockatoo Coal, with its market capitalisation of $38 million, was now on the radar of potential suitors. "Cockatoo is a classic example of a small coal company seemingly under cash constraints and I think they will struggle to attract investors as their share price falls."
Mr Bligh said that before the sale of Cockatoo's stake in Hume Coal, the company had just $6 million in cash available. "They also have to look at how to fund their Baralaba expansion project as well as refinancing the existing $100 million KEB Australia loan by the end of June 2013. Other small companies are heading in the same direction – the market knows they have to do something soon because they can't develop these projects themselves."
Cockatoo Coal chief executive Andrew Lawson said the cash burn was by no means an accurate reflection of the company's situation. "I think the cash burn figure is a very crude measure because there is a lot of financial engineering that is not being taken into consideration," Mr Lawson told The Australian Financial Review.
He said the reduction of a sizable debt facility in December last year from $150 million to $100 million also had the consequence of lowering the amount of cash on hand and such capital measures needed to be taken into consideration. "We have an operating mine that continues to be cash positive," he said. "With our expansion projects we will obviously tailor our expenditure to match our current financial circumstances." He declined to give detail on staff reduction or further asset sales.
The Bureau of Resources and Energy Economics recently estimated that $73.5 billion of coal projects have been publicly announced but have not yet started construction.
Joint ventures are the best way out
Diatreme Resources executive chairman Tony Fawdon said that although the company had just $2 million left, it was negotiating with Chinese parties to invest in its mineral sands project in South Australia. "We're not in a bad position but I'm hearing anecdotally that there are about 300 companies [in the junior sector] that are getting close to closing their doors," he said.
Mr Fawdon admitted that because of the state of the market, Diatreme had slowed work on its lesser projects and was not exploring those as aggressively as previously planned. He said finding a wealthy joint venture partner was one of the few options left for junior companies to finance their projects.
"But if your projects aren't of a good quality, you're going to find it extremely difficult to find a partner," he warned.
Many of the smaller companies like Cockatoo Coal may have to consider merging or raising capital to see their projects through.
RBS Morgans senior mining and metals analyst Tom Sartor said companies were cutting staff and investment in tenements as the first step in reducing the cash burn problem. "The coal juniors have heavily reduced their spending by cutting back on field programs, reducing their overheads and in some cases rationalising their lower-priority exploration acreage," he said.
Asset sales, similar to Cockatoo Coal's, may also need to be added to the bonfire. "What's really interesting is that many in the market see asset divestment by the majors as a potential signal that we may be approaching the bottom of the market," he said.
"We hear about billions of dollars in known funds looking to invest in the sector, although none of those players have yet been prepared to make a meaningful move this time around.
"So far there's been little tension suggesting that sellers need to move in a hurry, unless of course their funding is running short."

Dan Tangherlini, acting administrator of the General Services Administration, said Sept. 12 he will consolidate all of the agency's IT functions and personnel under the CIO and the agency's hiring duties under the chief people officer.
The shift in the IT area provides an opportunity to improve the performance of GSA's IT portfolio and make it operate more efficiently to save money. It's a change from the current decentralized structure in which the CIO could do little, Tangherlini said.
"Previously, the chief information officer had limited authority over project development, budgets and performance," Tangherlini told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee during a hearing about GSA's management troubles.
"By creating a central authority over the development and maintenance of information systems, GSA will streamline its IT investments while also increasing access to agency data," he said. Casey Coleman is the agency's CIO.
In addition, GSA will consolidate hiring responsibilities and human capital management personnel and operations under the chief people officer. Tangherlini said the reform will increase visibility into hiring decisions and eliminate redundancy within the agency.
Tangherlini said he will present the proposed changes to Congress this week.
Tangherlini has already restructured other areas of GSA. In April, the acting administrator ordered the consolidation of all budget, finance and accounting personnel under the chief financial officer, increasing transparency, accountability, and oversight on GSA spending. With an administrative order, GSA officials gave the agency's CFO authority over the Public Building Service's regional financial and reporting functions, the regional revenue operations and regional financial operations. The Federal Acquisition Service's budget and financial management functions have also been transferred to the CFO.
Tangherlini said GSA is making crucial reforms by centralizing the CFO and the CIO responsibilities, as the agency's Inspector General recommended.
"In this time of shrinking budgets, GSA's mission of delivering savings has never been more important," Tangherlini said in a separate statement. "It is our responsibility to make every taxpayer dollar count, and I am confident that the reforms that are underway at GSA will help us do exactly that."
As he has done in other congressional hearings, Tangherlini sat next to GSA IG Brian Miller and fielded questions about GSA's Western Regions Conference. It was Miller's report released in April, detailing the wasteful spending associated with that conference, that led to the resignation of former Administrator Martha Johnson, Tangherlini's appointment to the acting administrator role and his subsequent reform efforts.
During the 90-minute hearing, Tangherlini answered questions about employee bonuses and how GSA officials may have seemed to skirt the Office of Personnel Management's rules that cap a single bonus award at $10,000. In July, he issued a temporary hiring freeze for the entire agency and suspended 85 percent of senior executive bonuses through fiscal 2013. Senators complimented Miller for his doggedness in oversight, as well as Tangherlini for his attempts at reforming the agency.
"If anybody isn't going to think what you've done is bold, they don't understand [the Senior Executive Service]," McCaskill said. "They don't understand that when you cut the bonus budget by 85 percent, that's an earthquake in the SES world."

Types Of Vehicle Insurance
What is car insurance?
It is a contract in which a car owner signs an agreement to pay a certain amount of premium every year against the financial coverage of any kind of loss or damage to his own vehicle or even in cases where he is legally responsible for any kind of loss to the car or property of a third party. The damages that are generally covered for the other person are repairing cost of the vehicle and also any kind of medical treatment in case of injury. But if the car owner is not a permanent resident of Spain i.e. he is an expat then in such cases car insurance in spain is a very vital thing that one must possess. The expat policy usually includes coverage in case of accident with other cars, any damage by the third party, damage caused to the windows or upholstery, damage due to any natural calamity etc.
Why do I need vehicle insurance in Spain?
Driving a car in Spain is usually fun, but stressful at times. Whatever the price of the car is, getting it insured is very important. Car insurance in Spain is a legal necessity. Before it is taken out on the road, it has to be insured. It is always important to purchase high quality insurance at a reasonable price. Car insurance spain covers insurance of vans, cars and even motorcycles. It is also mandatory to carry all the related insurance documents and the payments receipts in the car. But better not carry the original documents; instead carry copies of the same. The most important thing to note is that the policy must be written in English because while getting a policy done one has to understand its terms and conditions properly.
What are the types of Spanish car insurance?
The car insurance Spain is basically of three types namely;
a) Third party insurance – It is the basic coverage which is also very economical. Most people in Spain who own older vehicles have been seen opting for this insurance policy as the cost involved is low. People have a general tendency of not spending much on old vehicles, they think it is unworthy. It covers the damage that has been caused by the policy holder to the vehicle of any third party and pays for the amount of damage caused on the behalf of the insurer. This is the lowest amount of insurance coverage available for the third party.
b) Third party plus – This particular vehicle insurance in Spain covers the theft and any kind of damage to the vehicle of the third party too. It is also considered to compensate the insurer if the car is declared as a total write off due to any accident.
c) Fully comprehensive – This policy is said to cover almost any kind of damage like theft, fire etc. to the car of the insurer and even to the other person and his car due to any loss caused by the accident. So people having this insurance can be mentally relaxed as it covers the repairing cost of almost any kind of damage to the cars of both parties, the insured as well as the third party. But it is the most costly coverage as the insurance company has to pay a high amount of money if there is any accident. On including an excess clause then the amount of premium can be brought down.
I myself being an expat after going through this article have realized how important it is to have vehicle insurance in Spain, especially for the expats.

Explore > Destinations > Bhedaghat
Soaring in glittering splendour, the Marble Rocks at Bhedaghat rise to a hundred feet on either side of the Narmada. The serene loveliness of the scene is one of cool quiet, the sunlight sparkling on the marble-white pinnacles and casting dappled shadows on the pellucid waters. These white rocks with views of black and dark green volcanic seams are truly majestic, and produce a magical effect on moonlit nights. The holy river flows by tranquilly flanked by the towering cliffs which reflect in it like a mirror the changing moods of nature. A little distance away, it becomes turbulent as it plunges in a mighty water fall known as Dhuandhar.
Facts / Did you know?
In his Highlands of Central India Captain J. Forsyth speaks eloquently about the infinitely varied beauty of the rocks: "the eye never wearies of the ... effect produced by the broken and reflected sunlight, now glancing from a pinnacle of snow-white marble reared against the deep blue of the sky as from a point of silver, touching here and there with bright lights the prominence of the middle heights and again losing itself in the soft bluish grays of their recesses. . . Here and there the white saccharine limestone is seamed by veins of dark green or black volcanic rock; a contrast which only enhances like a setting of jet, the purity of the surrounding marble."

If you own a laptop, then you need to be aware of the Hibernate and Sleep functions on your laptop. I have seen a lot of people who never get around to using these functions and actually shut down their laptops when they are done for the day… what a waste of time.
I reboot my laptops in only two cases: I have to reboot because of a software that I have installed (like Windows Updates); or I reboot because I have messed up the computer really bad by killing some processes or running the wrong software. Either way, I need to reboot around 2-3 times a month.
My default action when I close the lid of my laptop is to put it on Standby. This way, when I need to open it up again, it takes 3-5 seconds for me to get back in action. I put my laptop on Hibernate, only if I know that I am not going to be firing it up again in the next 5-6 hours. Restoring from Hibernate takes 30-40 seconds.
So basically, by not rebooting afresh (which takes about a couple of minutes), I save around 80-120 seconds every time I start working on my laptop (which is about 2-3 times a day). Multiple by 365 days, and you get around 24 hours of extra time over a year.

It happens all the time: A customer orders a product. Your fulfillment team pulls and packages the item. Then they ship it to the customer, who receives the package, opens it and discovers that the item is defective or it's the wrong one.
Returns are a part of doing business, and with the holiday shopping season just around the corner the shipping season is about to ramp up into high gear. According to the Internet Retailer website, the top 500 online merchants report an annual return rate of 3 percent. When you consider that online sales raked in $289 billion for retailers in 2012, that's a lot of merchandise being shipped back and forth.
Your goal should be threefold:
And it all comes down to adhesive tape. Yes, adhesive tape for returns is the gift that keeps on giving.
Including adhesive tape for returns with the replacement item you send to your customer sends a message to your customer that you acknowledge the mistake and want to make the return process as easy for them as possible. It also makes it much more likely that your customer will ship the original item back in a timely manner; and that you'll get it back in one piece.
See? Everybody wins when you include adhesive tape for returns with your replacement items; especially when you send your customers Decker RT150 Return Tape.
First, Decker RT150 Return Tape is pre-cut, meaning that all your fulfillment team needs to do is drop a few pieces of the tape in with every replacement item being shipped out. Second, it's been proven to be effective in securing boxes; including in industries such as pharmaceuticals and printer ink. Third, it's easy to use. Decker RT 150 has been designed with a center split paper release liner, making it incredibly easy to use. All three are not only a nice thing to do for your customers, but they are also make for really good public relations.
The holiday shopping season is right around the corner. Give your customers, and yourself and your company, the gift of Decker RT150 Return Tape this year. You (and the roughly 3 percent of your customers who are likely to return products this year) will be glad you did.
