Resort Village of Cochin Box 160 Cochin, SK Canada S0M 0L0 Phone: (306) 386-2333 Fax: (306) 386-2305
E-Mail: email@example.com by Kent Rockwell
The Resort Village of Cochin is a friendly community located 36 kilometres north of the Battlefords on Highway 4 North. It is nestled between two beautiful prairie lakes, Murray Lake and Jackfish Lake. This location makes Cochin a great vacation spot as well as a fantastic place to live. Residents and visitors can enjoy the sun on the beach, take a refreshing swim in the lake, play tennis or beach volleyball, visit the playgrounds, fish, waterski, wakeboard or tube behind a boat, or take in a round of golf at one of the great golf courses nearby. Visit one of the local campgrounds, rent a cottage, stay at a local bed and breakfast, or reserve your stay at Jackfish Lodge located within the Battlefords Provincial Park. We have the most spectacular sunsets in the world!
The population of the village grows to about 2500 during the summer months although more residents are living here year round due to the easy commute to North Battleford, Battleford, , Saskatoon, Meadow Lake and Lloydminster. The resort village is just a short commute of 20 minutes to the Battlefords, 1.5 hours to Saskatoon, and 4 hours to Edmonton.
A LIGHTHOUSE in Saskatchewan!! The only lighthouse in Saskatchewan is at the north end of the village of Cochin. It was built in 1988 on the top of Pirot Hill. From here visitors have a spectacular view of both Jackfish and Murray Lakes. The lighthouse is 11.5 meters tall (38 ft). There are 153 steps to the top for a fabulous view of both the townsite and the lakes. The rotating beacon (light) can be seen for miles.

They don't test you right away. Only after you decide who to join, and subsequently after doing the quest for the Dawnguard where you have to recruit two people, do they test you. If you fail the test you'll be given a quest to go to Morthal to cure your vampirism.
Considering that the patch gives all vampires glowing red eyes, it wouldn't be too hard to figure you out.
Eh, would think a group of vampire hunters would be better at spotting vampires than most people.
Ah that seems to confirm it then. That's a shame, although I haven't made up my mind which faction to choose anyway. I didn't play my vampire as an especially evil character (although he has racked up a huge tally of murdered bandits, conjurors and feral wolves among other things) but I'm not sure if the Volikhar vampires are entirely evil if you become in charge of them at the end. But then I'd have to do without a crossbow :/
Volkihar clan is just lazy cannibal cult with fancy name, they maybe ask you to murder someone while wearing dawnguard armor but its not mandatory.
As for crossbows... if you join vampires then Dawnguard is so considerate that they constantly send redshirts your way, with big chance that some of them have crossbows with bolts.
Found this on Youtube. Thought it was pretty cool.
If a video game developer removed tumors from players, they'd whine about nerfing their loss in weight and access to radiation powers. -Cracked.com
Hmm..., Skyrim is now getting on my nerv as WOW did. This is truly an epic game. The new DLC is ... so sweet OMG.
Hey, it's all relative in Elder Scrolls. Those plucky wood elves are supposedly cannibals too, although some try hard to fit in anyway! As a vampire I'm a bit worried about the blocking out the sun thing, but then I fear the Dawnguard will turn into a holy inqusition if I side with them, which will wipe out all vampires. Still, regardless of my choice, it's good to know I'll get my hands (or claws) on crossbows!

If I copy an .mdf file created by SQL server management studio and put it in the app_data folder I get this error:
"This database file is not compatible with the current instance of SQL Server.
To resolve this issue, you must upgrade the database file by creating a new data connection, or you must modify the existing connection to this database file.
For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=235986"
And if I attempt to Add connection using the visual studio wizard, choosing the Microsoft SQL server database file and select the file I get this error:
" Unable to open physical file "path" {access is denied) an attempt to attach an auto named for file "path" a database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share"
And if I attempt to add a connection choosing the "Microsoft SQL server" option in the choose data source window:
"a network related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL server. the server was not found or was not accessible. Verify the the instance name is correct and that the SQL is configured to allow remote connections..."
The only reason I want to connect visual studio to the database is because VS doesn't allow me to import text files. I have imported a text file into a DB from SQL server management studio and I want to connect it to VS. I've turned off UAC in windows 7 and I have file permissions to the mdf file.

The market for feed acids and nutrients is projected to reach $14.1 Billion by 2019. The estimation is owed to the regular research and developments in the industry with a wide application of the acids and nutrition in the animal feed. Realizing the importance of providing the nutritional feed to animals and their proper growth, the industry is optimistic about the future. The industry has recently diversified its portfolio and has diverted its focus towards small segments such as horse and aqua.
The growing feed industry itself plays the driving force for the market to grow and different applications have the specific requirement, which suits their physical needs. Each type has a different ratio according to the age, size, and living environment of the animal. Currently the market is led by poultry, Asia-Pacific region, and amino acids in the application, region and type segmentation, respectively. China being the leading player has been dominating the market which drives the Asia-Pacific market and gives it a stake of around 30%. The growth rate may grow higher in the next five years as new applications can be determined with regular research and development taking place in the field.
The overall market for Acids & Nutrients in animal Nutrition is anticipated to experience a rapid growth from 2014 to 2019 due to an increasing awareness of feed manufacturers and growing demand by the end-use industry. Since fish is considered a rich of protein, then the consumer seeks for the product having an appropriate quantity of protein. Therefore, this reason compels the animal feed manufacturers to provide animals with necessary nutrients.

A Two-fer...North Cascades Hwy,WA to Lost Coast,CA
I headed west across the Palouse farmlands. It was a lovely warm and breezy
summer day. I'm in a hurry so no pics. Out into the Columbia Basin and the breeze turns to real wind and the temp climbs considerably. It feels like I'm riding thru a hair dryer at 100 mph. Head buffeting and my sinuses hurt from the heat and low humidity. My goal is a slide show, etc, by Lois Pryce and Austin Vince, in Monroe WA. Of course I start late and am trying to make up time. At Vantage I veer right and head to George then to Wenatchee where I make a wrong turn and wind up downtown at rush hour. Some construction slows traffic and a loss of power messes up the lights and turns off the gas station. Back on the main road I find gas and as I head up the valley the winds subside. I barely slow for the tourist trap of Leavenworth and press the low speed limits to Stevens Pass. Fog slows me to 10mph and the cold is enough that I put on my Hippo Hands and wind breaker. I arrive a bit late and Lois is already speaking. Lois Pryce...Lois on the Loose. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...35_tLZpR-M.jpg Lois is an attractive sassy lass and will make a lovely grandma some day.:evil Austin Vince...Mondo Enduro http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...94_KYrBi-S.jpg Austin is a serious character with a lot of energy, and the two of them put on a good casual informative show. Mostly trying to encourage others to take the big step for a long cycle trip. After meeting them, I wander around in the dark looking for a cheap motel. Next morning I head up I-5, after a heart attack breakfast at Nadine's in Smokey Point. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...38_XMgL3-S.jpg I dead reckon NE and there was a lot of wandering. I think I went thru both Concrete and Darrington. How did I do that? http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...76_h68QF-S.jpghttp://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...22_M8QwB-S.jpg I did a bit of flower smelling. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...56_5owXR-S.jpg This old school bldg is still in use.

Good roads. Low traffic. Great scenery. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...20_HiSmg-S.jpg http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...65_rZcUd-S.jpg A few junctions and decisions later I find myself in Nelson,BC. This is one of my favorite destinations. A laid back town with lots of small shops set up for walking around. I take a break for a cup of tea at this place up on the hill. The young waitress was friendly and easy to look at. I plopped into a comfy overstuffed chair and started to read "Lois on the Loose". The chair won and I started to head bob. More decisions. Take a nap, and make a spectacle of myself or get back on the bike. Down at the gas station the pump wont take my card. The scanner inside won't take my card. I relinquish a $20 US and get bad conversion rates:eek1 An Atm down the street won't take my card. Hmmm. This puts a crick in my trip. I've let myself get low on cash. $10 us and about $12 canadian. 300 mi from home. Time to head south for home in a direct line. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...89_WCznx-M.jpg Kootenay Pass.

I came around the corner and these guys were 10ft deep and clear across the road. Edge to edge, and they didn't move. I came to a stop and got out the camera. A car came by and divided the flock. This pic is only half of them. I hit reserve just before home. I still had some change in my pocket, too.:lol3 So, a bit of drama that turned out OK. It seems the bank issued me a new replacement card (with different numbers) and canceled the old one. My old one was still in good shape and I hadn't put the new one in my wallet. Doh! Next up is my trip, a couple weeks later, from north Idaho thru Oregon to the Lost Coast, CA. Thru the Wallowas, John Day, Mt Lassen Park, Redwoods Park, Hwy 36. |
Great ride, thanks for the report and pics :thumb
Very good so far...Waiting patiently for more.

I spent way too little time in North Cascades NP in July of 2008 as I rode across WA State from east to west on Hwy 20 - can't wait to ride that beautiful stretch of road again but in less of a hurry next time!

Come on Dick, on with the story and pictures. :lurk You know patients isn't one of Rocky's virtues and she's watching this one too. :D |
I have to make a living, you know. I worked till midnight today. Big Bucks today. :clap
That is a mighty shiny TA. Mine is a bit more "rugged". :lol3 |
Things work out so that a couple weeks after North Cascades Park I have an opportunity to take another trip. Horizons Unlimited is having a get together in the Lost Coast area and I've not ridden in north California.
I had a bad experience in CA some years ago and just avoided the state. A couple years ago I came up the east side of the Sierras and changed my mind. I've been back a couple of times since. I just stay away from those cities and freeways. I've labeled a few "good" roads and have a plan. :lol3 I'm gone by noon. South on 95 to Lewiston. The Spiral Hwy, or to the locals it is the Old Lewiston Grade. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...51_9iTjf-M.jpg Across the Red Wolf Bridge, thru Asotin and south on WA 129. This is a nice ride but no pics. I was moving right along. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...36_Hva9t-S.jpg http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...18_FtDrR-S.jpg I did stop for a PO pic. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...10_tgeaY-M.jpg Rattlesnake Grade. If you enter this canyon slow there is a spot that looks remarkably like the famous Batopilas canyon. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...21_gCAqV-S.jpg Lunch at the bottom of Rattlesnake.

Watch for deer. Is that a deer? Watch for deer." Near the CA border I find a wide spot and set up my tent. There are creepy crawlies out here so I like the tent instead of a tarp. I leave the fly off so I can see the Milky Way directly overhead north/south with my tent. Sometime in the night I awaken and the Milky Way has shifted and runs diagonal. Some coyotes are making a lot of noise. I listen about 5minutes and am sound asleep, again. http://latourista.smugmug.com/Other/...79_HxYG7-S.jpg |

5 Best Curation Sources or Why Top B2B Marketers Hate Blogs
No doubt you spend hours to find something valuable across different digital channels to share it with your audience or create your audience in this way. Certainly you use social media pages, groups, blogs for this purpose. We decided to conduct a research in order to find what kind of sources are commonly used by B2B marketers for content curation and which option is more advantageous.
Best Curation Sources Rating
- LinkedIn personal feeds – 75%
Do you use LinkedIn? If not we strongly recommend to start doing so. There is a simple fact that 97% marketers consider that LinkedIn is the best place for content distribution. No wonder that different experts use their timelines to share great insights and news.
What kind of content do they usually share?
- Infographics;
- Useful tips;
- Motivation;
- Jokes.
You can use it for creation of your own content as well as for simple sharing. By the way, it's a great source for self-branding.
- LinkedIn groups – 65%
Linkedin groups are perfect for content contributing. Thousands of specialists around the world use groups to establish communication with their key audience by participating in various relevant discussions and conversations.
- Twitter Accounts – 60%
Influencers are great curators and they are a great source of content too. Everyday people like Dave McClure share stories which can surprise the audience and make it interested. It's related to different areas: venture, technology, marketing. So if you want to do high quality curation, don't forget about this source.
- Blogs – 57%
It's surprising, but today marketers don't use RSS as the main source of information. Earlier we could face a situation when in case we want to find something, we have to go to the website. But now everything is social. People don't read blogs. They read social networks, because there they can find content which is already curated by their friends, colleagues or experts. Usually it's more relevant and appropriate piece of knowledge.
- Facebook pages & groups – 45%
Actually it's pretty hard to find something valuable across Facebook. Yes, it's a great network for communication, interaction, rich posts and other things. But it's more about B2C and consumer market. So it's not a simple task to use Facebook groups as an authentic source of expert content.
What Has Changed?
Definitely, digital is changing so that curation is changing too. Here are the most valuable insights:
- Modern curation is about social networks;
- Modern curation is about real people preferences;
- Modern curation is about different sources;
- RSS doesn't dominate anymore.
As you see we have a pretty clear picture. Marketers prefer to use different social channels to find content. It's the fastest and the most effective way. Yes, they still use sites and blogs. But the latter no longer dominate. In turn, your goal is to find your special proportion of sources which would be appropriate for your business. Don't try to copy it, but use it as a strong evidence.

The hotel is very well located just in front of Barra beach, which is one of the best in town. Rooms are big but a bit bare-bones, and my room had an unpleasant cigarette smell on the first days. Breakfast was average. The hotel provides towels for beach and pool goers, but they are not always available in sufficient numbers.... More

Kapla's long and thin planks are based on the progressions of the uneven numbers 1:3:5. Three thicknesses for one width and five widths for one length. This ratio between bricks and stones and beams and planks now opens a whole new way of building. With these identical planks, the builder can construct with the precision of artwork, and the stability of stones. The use of identical unfixed pieces develops the child's aptitude for organizing elements in a 3-dimensional space and allows them to discover and sharpen their manual ability in relation to objects. Kapla helps the child to understand the fundamental issues of geometry, physics and technology. It also introduces them to the world of art, and to the universe of shapes and volumes, while developing concentration and a feeling of balance.

Exchequer Restaurant & Pub
226 S. Wabash Avenue (Google Maps)
Chicago, IL 60604
(312) 939-5633
CPC invaded Exchequer on 11/01/07.
Searching the plastic tubes of the internet for new pizza locations, I came across Exchequer Restaurant & Pub, located in the heart of the loop. Initially, I was surprised that I had not heard of a downtown pizza location that resident extra large movie expert Roger Ebert identified as one of the four best pies in Chicago. Upon further inspection, I noticed that the portly cowriter of such cinematic masterpieces as Beneath the Valley of the Ultra-Vixens endorsed this place in 1984. Additionally, most of the rest of the endorsements came from Brits. Brits don't know shit about pizza. Still, the Chicago Tribune allegedly identified Exchequer as the best deep dish pizza in the loop in 2001. I say allegedly because the link to the article was conveniently broken.
I was intrigued enough to suggest the locale as the next Pizza Club destination. My first thought upon entering was that I can't wait for the smoking ban to go into effect in Chicago. My second thought as we walked to the back of the restaurant and passed walls completely covered in Chicago sports decor, movie posters and various photos of quasi-famous people, was that I was surprised how crowded the place was. My third thought was that I noticed I did not see anyone eating pizza.
I began to have serious doubts about the place when the waiter was shocked that we were there for the pizza. Despite the optimism his reaction instilled, we proceeded. Exchequer offers three different types of pizza, deep dish, thin crust and crispy crust. Of course, the club sampled one of each. We ordered a sausage and garlic deep dish, a spinach and feta thin crust, and a Meat Eaters crispy crust. For good measure, and in honor of the restaurant's Greek roots, we got the Aegean pizza as an appetizer.
The Aegean came first. Served on a crispy crust, it came with Artichoke, Plum Tomato, Red Onion, and Feta Cheese. It seemed as if they made a cheese pizza and then put the ingredients on. I liked the artichokes. That was about it.
Next up was the sausage and garlic. I tasted the garlic and I definitely saw the sausage, but this pizza was pretty much a pile of rapidly congealing cheese that overwhelmed the crust - a knife and fork was required. I finished my slice and it was fine. But I like cheese. However, I also like sauce and this pie had very little. In its favor, this particular pizza was just as tasty when I ate it cold the following morning.
The spinach on the thin crust was interesting. It tasted like creamed spinach. Seriously, I think the spinach was cooked with cheese before it was put on the pizza. That said, I like creamed spinach and this pie was interesting. The crust held up, but it was nothing special. Not bad, but not great.
The Meat Eaters pie had a lot of meat - Cheese, Sausage, Pepperoni, Ground Beef, Canadian Bacon. Honestly, I don't remember much about it other than it was a lot of meat, some cheese, and as was apparently the style at Exchequer, very little sauce. Meat and cheese is always good. The crust was virtually the same as the thin crust. In fact, I don't think there was a difference between the thin crust and the crispy one.
The pizza at Exchequer was edible, but with all the dining choices in the vicinity, I am confident I will never eat it again.
Petey gives Exchequer a 4/10.
Happy Pizza Clubbers... (and what awesome shirts they have...)

Fresh off the Billboard chart-topping success of lead single We Found Love, Rihanna returns with release numero deux off her forthcoming sixth studio album. On You Da One, Dr. Luke's isaland-flavored production (with a momentary foray into dubstep) sets the mood for sunny verses about RiRi's infatuation with a special man. Talk That Talk is scheduled to hit record stores and onlnie retailers November 18—in the meantime, keep it locked to The DJBooth for the latest tunes.

Oklahoma City's Russell Westbrook Left with Dent After Knee to His Head [Video]

Don't be that guy, or bad things will happen.
When it comes to the NBA Development League, there's a reason that the players aren't in the actual NBA.
They're just not good enough yet. That's not to say that they won't be some day. But, as for right now, not yet.
The same could be said for the play-by-play guys in the D-League.
This dad and daughter had a deal: Dad makes a difficult trick basketball shot and he never has to give his daughter another cent for anything!
What could go wrong for the daughter? The shot will be impossible!
Well, maybe not that impossible after all ... .
Eric Zane's son's friend forwarded this video to Zane this week.
He and his friend just shot it the other day in Jenison, Mich.
A video of Mike Rice, Head Coach of Men's Basketball at Rutgers has been released to ESPN showing him screaming and berating his players. The video also shows him physically pushing and kicking them. Even throwing basketballs at their head.
Rice was suspended back in December for what was described as "inappropriate behavior and language" between the coach and his players.
We've all seen those half-time contests where a fan gets to take a shot from half-court...but I don't think we've ever seen an outcome like this.
Kris Humphries of the Brooklyn Nets got his shot blocked by a very unlikely person...
Here is something that might take your mind off of the holiday stress for a bit. Enjoy today's "Video Clip of the Day". You definitely don't want to challenge this guy!! Comments are always welcomed

AIA Welcomes Long-Awaited Congressional Action on Satellite Export Control Reform
ARLINGTON, Va., Dec. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- The Aerospace Industries Association applauds Congress for moving to end the draconian over-regulation of commercial satellite exports. The fiscal year 2013 National Defense Authorization Act would return authority to the president to determine appropriate export control requirements for commercial satellites and related technologies after years of mandating the imposition of inflexible, military-level controls.
Story continues below ↓
"Even if you don't factor in the threat of sequestration, our space industrial base faces an immediate 22 percent reduction in the national security space budget next year," said AIA President and CEO Marion C. Blakey. "Ending this self-imposed burden on U.S. competitiveness in the global commercial satellite marketplace is critical to our national security and to ensuring the U.S. space industrial base stays second to none." AIA's report, "Competing for Space: Satellite Export Policy and U.S. National Security," outlines the devastating impact military-level export controls have had on the U.S. space industrial base since they were imposed by Congress in 1999, particularly the drop in U.S. share of global satellite manufacturing from 65 percent to as low as 30 percent. The report estimates that U.S. manufacturers lost $21 billion in satellite revenue from 1999 to 2009, costing about 9,000 direct jobs annually. These companies, many of them small- and medium-sized enterprises, can only remain in business and sustain our country's technological edge in space by accessing legitimate commercial markets.
AIA is committed to an overall export control environment that safeguards our national security but is also predictable, efficient and transparent. This legislation would free the administration to treat commercial satellite technology like all other regulated technology and propose appropriate adjustments to requirements for export. We strongly urge passage of the fiscal year 2013 National Defense Authorization Act and hope for quick signature by President Obama. We appreciate the bipartisan efforts of Congress and the administration to take this important step in the ongoing process to reform the U.S. export control system.
