Lake Elsinore is a city in western Riverside County, California. Established as a city in 1888, it is on the shore of Lake Elsinore, a natural freshwater lake about 3,000 acres in size. The city has grown from a small resort town in the late 19th century and early 20th century to a population of 51,821 at the 2010 census.
Native Americans have long lived in the Elsinore Valley. The Luiseño people were the earliest known inhabitants. Their pictographs can be found on rocks on the Santa Ana Mountains and in Temescal Valley, and artifacts have been found all around Lake Elsinore and in the local canyons and hills.
Overlooked by the expedition of Juan Bautista de Anza, the largest natural lake in Southern California was first seen by the Spanish Franciscan padre Juan Santiago, exploring eastward from the Mission San Juan Capistrano in 1797. In 1810, the water level of the Laguna Grande was first described by a traveler as being little more than a swamp about a mile long.[6] Later in the early 19th century, the lake grew larger, providing a spot to camp and water their animals for Mexican rancheros, American trappers, the expedition of John C. Frémont, and the immigrants during the California Gold Rush as they traveled along the southern shore of the lake on what later became the Southern Immigrant Trail and the route of the Butterfield Overland Mail.
On January 7, 1844, Julian Manriquez acquired the land grant to Rancho La Laguna, a tract of almost 20,000 acres (81 km2) which included the lake and an adobe being built near the lake on its south shore at its western corner that was described by Benjamin Ignatius Hayes, who stayed there overnight January 27, 1850.[7]
In 1851, Abel Stearns acquired the rancho and sold it in 1858 to Augustin Machado. Augustin Machado built a seven-room adobe ranch house and an outbuilding on the southwest side of the lake. Soon after, Rancho La Laguna became a regular stop on the Butterfield Overland Mail route between Temecula 20 mi (32 km) to the south and the Temescal station 10 mi (16 km) to the north. The old Manriquez adobe was used as the station house. Over the years, a framed addition and a second story were added, and it was used as a post office for the small settlement of Willard from 1898 until September 30, 1902. The building stood until it was razed in 1964, at what is now 32912 Macy Street. Today, three palm trees still grow in front of the site along Macy Street in front of the property.[8][9]
As a result of the Great Flood of 1862, the level of the lake was very high, so the Union Army created a post at the lake to graze and water their horses. In the great 1862–65 drought, most of the cattle in Southern California died and the lake level fell, especially during 1866 and 1867, when practically no rain fell. However, the lake was full again in 1872, when it overflowed down its outlet through Temescal Canyon.[10]
While most of the old Californio families lost their ranchos during the great drought, the La Laguna Rancho remained in the hands of the Machado family until 1873, when most of it was sold to Englishman Charles A. Sumner. Juan Machado retained 500 acres (2.0 km2) on the northwest corner of the lake, where his adobe still stands near the lake at 15410 Grand Avenue.
After 1872, the lake again evaporated to a very low level, but the great rains in the winter of 1883–84 filled it to overflowing in three weeks. Descriptions of the lake at this time say that large willow trees surrounding the former low-water shore line stood 20 ft (6.1 m) or more below the high-water level and were of such size that they must have been 30 or more years old. This indicated the high water of the 1860s and 1870s must have been of a very short duration.[11]
On October 5, 1883, Franklin H. Heald and his partners Donald Graham and William Collier bought the remaining rancho, intending to start a new town. In 1884, the California Southern Railroad built a line from Colton through the Cañon de Rio San Jacinto (now Railroad Canyon) to link with San Diego, and a rail station La Laguna appeared near the corner of what is now Mission Trail Road and Diamond Drive. On April 9, 1888, Lake Elsinore became the 73rd city to be incorporated in California, just 38 years after California became a state. Originally, Elsinore became a city in San Diego County and later part of Riverside County upon its creation in 1893. It was named Elsinore after the Danish city in Shakespeare's "Hamlet", which is now its sister city (Helsingør). Another source maintains Elsinore is a corruption of "el señor", Spanish for "the gentleman", because the city site had been owned by a don.[12]
The rainfall until 1893 was greater than normal, and the lake remained high and overflowed naturally on three or four occasions during that time. The lake water was purchased by the Temescal Water Company for the irrigation of land in Corona, California. Its outlet channel was deepened, permitting gravity flow down the natural channel of Temescal Canyon to Corona for a year or more after the water level sank below the natural elevation of its outlet. As the lake surface continued to recede, a pumping plant was installed and pumping was continued a few seasons, but the concentration of salts in the lake, due to the evaporation and lack of rainfall, soon made the water unfit for irrigation and the project was abandoned by the company.[11]
From the beginning, the mineral springs near the lake attracted visitors seeking therapeutic treatments. In 1887, the Crescent Bath House, now known as "The Chimes", was built; it still stands in historic downtown and is a registered national historic site. By 1888, the economy was supported by coal and clay mining at what became the town of Terra Cotta, gold mining in the Pinacate Mining District, ranching, and the agriculture of fruit and nuts. After 1893, the lake's water level sank almost continuously for nearly 10 years, with a slight rise every winter. Heavier precipitation, beginning in 1903, gradually filled the lake to about half the depth above its minimum level since 1883. Then in January, 1916, a flood rapidly raised the level to overflowing.
Lake Elsinore was a popular destination in the first half of the 1900s for celebrities to escape the urban Hollywood scene. Many of their homes still stand on the hills surrounding the lake, including Aimee's Castle, a unique Moorish-style house built by Aimee Semple McPherson. Also, actor Bela Lugosi, known for his lead role in Universal Pictures' film, Dracula, built a home that still exists in the city's Country Club Heights district. The lake also hosted teams for Olympic training and high-speed boat racing in the 1920s. The lake went dry in the mid-1930s, but refilled by 1938.[11]
During World War II, the lake was used to test seaplanes, and a Douglas Aircraft plant making wing assemblies for B-17 bombers was located in the city.[13]
The lake ran dry during most of the 1950s and was refilled in the early 1960s. Despite its relatively small African American population, it has the distinction of electing the first black mayor in California. Tom Yarborough was elected in 1966, three years before Douglas Dollarhide became the mayor of Compton.
In 1972, citizens of the city voted to rename it Lake Elsinore.[14] More than a week of heavy rains in 1980 flooded the lake, destroying surrounding homes and businesses. Since then, a multimillion dollar project has been put into place to maintain the water supply at a consistent level, allowing for homes to be built close to the lake. Overflow water in the Lake spills out via Alberhill Creek, a tributary of Temescal Creek. In 2007, an aeration system was added to help with the lake's ecosystem.
Rapid population growth in the mid-2000s altered the appearance and image of Lake Elsinore from a small lakeside town of 3,800 people in 1976 to a bedroom community of upper middle-class professionals. The city was ranked as the 12th fastest growing city in California between 2000 and 2008.[15] Now, over 51,821 residents as of the 2010 census live there, and formerly open hillsides have been converted into housing tracts.[16]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 41.7 sq mi (108.0 km2) of which 36.2 sq mi (93.8 km2) of it is land and 5.5 sq mi (14.2 km2), or 13.14%, is covered by water.
Lake Elsinore, originally Laguna Grande, is the largest natural freshwater lake in Southern California and is situated at the lowest point within the 750-square-mile (1,900 km2) San Jacinto Watershed at the terminus of the San Jacinto River, where its headwaters are found on the western slopes of San Jacinto Peak with its North Fork, and Lake Hemet with its South Fork. Lake levels are healthy at 1,244 feet above sea level with a volume of 30,000 acre·ft (37,000,000 m3)[17] that often fluctuate, although much has been done recently to prevent the lake from drying up, flooding, or becoming stagnant. At 1,255 feet (383 m), the lake would spill into the outflow channel on its northeastern shore, known properly as Temescal Wash, flowing northwest along I-15, which feeds Temescal Creek, which dumps into the Santa Ana River just northwest of the City of Corona. It then flows to Orange County, out to the Pacific Ocean just south of Huntington State Beach.
Lake Elsinore is bordered by the Elsinore Mountains to the west, which are a part of the larger Santa Ana Mountain Range, and receive a few inches of snowfall a few days each year. Included in the Santa Ana Mountains is the Cleveland National Forest and El Cariso. Lake Elsinore is northwest of Murrieta and the northern portion is part of the Temescal Canyon.
Lake Elsinore is a city which encompasses a large geographical area. To better distinguish the wide range of neighborhoods, the city is organized into 11 districts. Each district beholds its own unique geography, culture, age, and history which together make Lake Elsinore a very diverse and culturally rich city. They are the Alberhill, Ballpark, Business, Country Club Heights, East Lake, Historic, Lake Edge, Lake Elsinore Hills, Lake View, North Peak, and Riverview Districts.[18]
The Alberhill District is characterized by rolling terrain, vacant land, and the newly constructed Alberhill Ranch neighborhood. Much of the topography in the central areas, east and west of Lake Street, has been substantially altered as a result of the Alberhill District's long history of extractive/mining activities. Mining operations in the Alberhill District began at Terra Cotta roughly the same time the region's first railroad, the California Southern Railroad, was completed in the 1880s. A spur of the railroad originally built to Terra Cotta was extended into the central portion of the Alberhill District. The Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad built a line up from Corona through Alberhill to Elsinore after the line through Railroad Canyon was washed out in the 1920s. These events helped shape the growth of the District. Mining operations for coal and especially clay have continued to exist since the late 19th century, and occupy a significant portion of the Alberhill District. Through the years, Pacific Clay Products Company has purchased the local mines and has become the sole operating clay mine in the region.[19]
The Ballpark District takes its name from the Lake Elsinore Diamond Stadium, a first-class minor league baseball stadium constructed in 1994. It is home to the Lake Elsinore Storm professional baseball team, an affiliate of the San Diego Padres. The area was once the site of the first train depot in Lake Elsinore, but no train tracks or structures from that era remain.[20]
The developed area within the Business District is relatively new and has the strongest concentration of industrial and commercial uses within the city. In addition, it hosts several big-box retailers, the Lake Elsinore Outlets, the lake's outlet channel, Temescal Creek, and marshlands. It is bordered by Country Club Heights to the west and Interstate 15 to the east, with a small portion extending to the east side of I-15. Sections of the Atchison, Topeka, & Santa Fe Railroads that passed through the Business District during the 1800s have been removed. In addition, a historic ranching and homesteading site with previous ranching and homesteading activities is located nearby the route where the railroad once existed.[21]
The Country Club Heights District is distinctly marked by its steep hillsides, views of the lake and the City, and is a key part of Lake Elsinore's history. The issues mentioned above have presented development constraints for Country Club Heights since its historic beginnings dating back to 1912. The area was the target of an elaborate land scheme promoted in Los Angeles. The Mutual Benefit and Loan Society of Los Angeles acquired two pieces of dry, "hill-land" within a few miles north of "town-land" that the Press claimed was not worth ten cents an acre. The Mutual Benefit and Loan Society offered to give a 25x100-foot lot to anyone who asked; however, the person receiving the lot had to pay ten dollars for a membership in the society, and one dollar per month dues for five years. In 1923, the Clevelin Realty Corporation, headed by Henry Schultz, began selling additional lots in Country Club Heights and launched an unprecedented-for-its-size real estate sales promotion in the area. Later, in 1925, W.R. Covington and Associates of Santa Monica purchased 650 ft of lake frontage and three blocks of slightly improved land across Poe Street from Warm Springs Park. A clubhouse, swimming pool, and other facilities projected to cost $200,000 were built on this property. No records have been found to provide the date when a fire destroyed the clubhouse, but remnants of the burned structure and surrounding trees examined in 1942 indicate the fire must have occurred soon after the building was constructed. Noteworthy sites in the Country Club Heights District include the Bredlau Castle, built on a hilltop in 1926 by Henry Schultz, who had originated the Clevelin development. The beautiful building overlooking the lake was the site for many social gatherings. The castle is over 9,000 ft2, including a hidden room with a sliding bookcase door that was used during Prohibition. In October 1928, Aimee Semple McPherson, a renowned evangelist, built a palatial home in Country Club Heights, which has since won fame as "Aimee's Castle", which served as the evangelist's part-time home until 1939, when it passed to new ownership. Since then it has changed hands many times and is rumored to be owned by actor Johnny Depp.[22]
The East Lake District is partially developed and contains the newly constructed Summerly neighborhood. It is a generally flat area that does not contain any registered historic structures. However, portions of the East Lake District were used during prehistoric times by Native American Indians as flaking and grinding stations. In addition, a historic ranching and homesteading site is located just outside the East Lake District along the border with Lakeland Village to the southwest. More recently, the East Lake District has also been home to popular motocross, skydiving, glider plane, and hang gliding activities. Throughout the city's history, Lake Elsinore has alternated between severe floods and droughts. Most of the East Lake District lies within a 100-year floodplain adjacent to and southeast of the lake. As a result, the district has been significantly affected during wet seasons and high water levels in the lake. Major floods occurred in 1884 and in 1916. In 1969, 7 in of rain fell in 11 days and severely flooded the lake's shores. The East Lake District's proximity to the lake and flood storage is a key consideration in all planned development and several projects have been implemented to prevent the lake from flooding again.[23]
The Historic District has been the focal point of the city since its incorporation in 1888. Today, several registered and unregistered historic buildings exist, including the Crescent Bath House, also known as "The Chimes". The neighborhoods in this area are the oldest in the city, and its commercial strip along Main Street is considered to be downtown.[24]
The Lake Edge District area has had a long and eventful history, with the lake as a focal point for the Native Americans, Europeans, Mexicans, early founders of the City, and the multitude of visitors and locals who continue to come to its shores for entertainment and recreation. Many developments occurred along or within proximity of the lake's edge during the second half of the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries. Today, the Lake Edge District encompasses the city's oldest standing structure, the Adobe Machado House. The preservation of this structure is a high priority. Another structure of historical interest is the former Elsinore Naval Military Academy building, located along Grand Avenue near the intersection of Ortega Highway.[25] A newly constructed campground, marina, and boat lunch is located on the northwest side of the lake.
The Lake Elsinore Hills District encompasses a large and varied terrain including broad plains, rolling hills, steep slopes, sensitive habitats, and watercourses, with elevations ranging from 1,300 to 2,170 feet above the sea level. Many areas of the Lake Elsinore Hills District are not readily accessible or able to be developed, so have remained vacant. Two large bodies of water located within close proximity of the Lake Elsinore Hills District are the City's lake to the southwest and Canyon Lake to the east, which is located within the city of Canyon Lake. Some of the higher elevations offer beautiful panoramic views of the City's lake and the Santa Ana Mountains. The neighborhoods in this district include Tuscany Hills, Canyon Hills, and Rosetta Canyon.[26]
The northwestern areas of the Lake View District offer beautiful views of the lake and the neighboring mountains, and are characterized by high elevations, steep slopes, and a series of canyons. The remaining areas of the Lake View District are relatively flat in the lower elevations. Historically, the northern portion of the Lake View District has remained mostly undeveloped, with the exception of the La Laguna Estates neighborhood above McVicker Canyon Park. Similar to the areas further north, the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad and abundant mining opportunities extant in the late 19th century brought both residents and visitors to the area. Historic ranching and homesteading, including Torn Ranch, were generally located to the northwest of Machado Street, which was an important roadway lined with beautiful deodar trees. Most of the lower-lying areas of the Lake View District to the north have been recently developed and primarily include single-family homes. Other neighborhoods in this area include Northshore and Lake Terrace, which were both formerly orange groves. Another area in this district at the intersection of Riverside and Lakeshore Drives has long been to referred to as "Four Corners" by local residents.[27]
The North Peak District is located at the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains and reflects three basic topographical conditions. The southern areas adjacent to State Highway 74 consist of gently rolling hills and small valleys. The central areas contain an enclosed valley. The northern areas primarily contain relatively flatter topography surrounded by rolling hillsides. Several historic mining locations and historic ranching and homesteading sites lie within the North Peak District, but most of the area remains pristine. The landscape and character of the area may soon change as a result of proposed development. The future master planned communities within the North Peak Specific Plan encompass a large share of the district's acreage in the central and northern areas.[28]
The Riverview District is a combination of steep terrain and flat areas nestled between a knoll with steep slopes, a major watercourse, and the lake. Higher elevations and steep slopes are located in the northwest areas of the Riverview District, which function as a physical border with most of the adjacent Historic District. The San Jacinto River floodway, located within the Riverview District along the eastern and southern areas, is the city's major watercourse. The river flows southwest from Canyon Lake through the Lake Elsinore Hills District and the Riverview District, then ultimately empties into the lake.[29]
Lake Elsinore has a semiarid climate, with hot, almost rainless summers and mild, wetter winters. The climate in this area is described by the Köppen climate classification system as "dry-summer subtropical" often referred to as "Mediterranean" and designated Csa.[30]

The Riverside County Sheriff's Department serves the entire Lake Elsinore Valley (including the nearby suburbs of Lakeland Village and Sedco Hills, and the newly incorporated City of Wildomar) from its regional station in downtown Lake Elsinore (the city once had its own police department, but it was disbanded in 1979 for budgetary reasons).
The city of Lake Elsinore contracts for fire and paramedic services with the Riverside County Fire Department through a cooperative agreement with CAL FIRE.[35] Lake Elsinore currently has four paramedic engines operating from its four stations. The fire department also has a volunteer reserve firefighter company which covers a rescue squad from Station 97.
Fire station 10 is located downtown next to the post office, which also has two Cal Fire engines for supplemental protection. Fire station 85 is located at McVicker Park and fire station 94 is located on the east side of the city off of Railroad Canyon Road. Rosetta Canyon fire station 97 is located on the northeast side of the city covering the Highway 74 corridor.
Public education within most of the city of Lake Elsinore and the surrounding areas is provided by the Lake Elsinore Unified School District, which serves a student population of about 21,500.[36] The school district has 15 elementary schools, five middle schools, three high schools, and three alternative schools.[37]
A very small portion of northeastern Lake Elsinore in the Canyon Hills subdivision is located in the Menifee Union School District for grades K-8, and Perris Union High School District for grades 9–12.
Additionally, three private schools are within the city of Lake Elsinore, including a K–12 preparatory academy.[38][39]
The Elsinore Valley Cemetery District[40] maintains a public cemetery in the city.[41][42] The cemetery was established in 1891 by Peter Wall.[43] The Jewish Home of Peace Cemetery, a.k.a. Mt. Sinai Memorial Park of Elsinore, is part of the cemetery.[44]
The Manker Family Cemetery is an historical cemetery located on the family property. Three known burials are from 1887–1902, with evidence of at least one other burial. The four wooden tombstones were burned in a fire.[45][unreliable source?]
Lake Elsinore Diamond serves as a site for the Single A baseball team Lake Elsinore Storm, which is a farm team for the San Diego Padres, and was formerly a farm team for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Also, semipro football team, the Riverside-Elsinore Dolphins of the Western States Football League was active in 1996–98. The stadium now hosts the Banning-Elsinore Eagles of the California Football Association, a minor American football league. At this time, neither football or soccer is played at "the Diamond", but special events, such as concerts with stars such as Willie Nelson and ZZ Top, are held there.
In 2012, the city council voted to approve $50,000 for a memorial to veterans that would be placed in front of the stadium. The design of the memorial included a soldier kneeling in front of a Christian cross. After repeated warnings to the city council that endorsing religion using public funds is unconstitutional, including a warning from the city attorney that this is "in no way legal", the city council unanimously voted to include a Star of David, as well as more Christian crosses, saying we are 'taking a stand' for Christianity and against the separation of church and state." On May 31, 2013, the American Humanist Association filed suit to prevent the building of the monument.[46][47][48][49] The Pacific Justice Institute, a nonprofit legal defense firm, agreed to represent the city on a pro bono basis.[50][51]
The Elsinore Grand Prix is a dirt-bike race that takes place in and around the Lake Elsinore area. The annual race is usually held in mid-November. The popularity of the event hit its apex in the late 1960s and early 1970s, drawing the likes of dirt-bike greats such as Malcolm Smith and Steve McQueen, to name a few. The race has always been set as an "open" format, meaning anyone can ride; usually only about 200 or so take this event seriously, whereas the rest use it as an opportunity to have fun. In 1971, the documentary movie On Any Sunday by Bruce Brown included scenes from the grand prix.[52]
In the mid-1970s the Elsinore Grand Prix hit a snag, none of the big riders were participating, and the event was drawing the wrong crowd, mostly violent motorcycle gangs. The race was cancelled indefinitely soon afterwards. In 1996, several dirt-bike riders, with a hint of nostalgia, decided to lobby the city of Lake Elsinore to revive the Grand Prix. Promising that the violent motorcycle gang crowd drawn to the Grand Prix in the 1970s had gone and that dirt-bike motorcycle riding was more of a family event, the city allowed the event to resume on a provisional basis.
In 1973, Honda named its CR250M Elsinore—the first motorcycle designed by Honda for the dirt rather than a modified street bike—after the Elsinore GP race venue.[53]
Lake Elsinore is also a popular destination for motorcyclists riding east from San Juan Capistrano along the 33-mile (53 km) long Ortega Highway.[52]
One of the first outlet shopping malls in California was established in northwestern Lake Elsinore in the late 1990s on Collier Road at Nichols Road, just off Interstate 15; the mall now has its own automobile dealership and a wide variety of retailers, encompassing clothing and shoe stores, eateries, bookstores, perfumeries, home and garden boutiques, and electronics stores.[54]
The city's Visitors Bureau has also been making efforts to expand tourism in the area. Quality Inn, Best Western, and Holiday Inn Express hotels have recently been built within the city limits to accommodate tourists who attend the city's various events and enjoy the picturesque lake. Also, Lake Elsinore Hotel and Casino has recently been remodeled to accommodate the growing need for hotel space in the region.
According to the City's 2009 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report,[55] the top employers in the city are:
# | Employer | No. of employees |
1 | Lake Elsinore Outlets | 1,169 |
2 | Lake Elsinore Unified School District | 1,060 |
3 | Costco | 250 |

Today's Runes for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
spread is used to plot the crucial elements of past, present, and future, and to reveal the evolution of the situation through the arc of time.
Ice Runes
are most commonly used for questions about struggle, conflict, and achievement.
The left rune represents an important element of
the past
is the rune of chance and gambling. Throw the dice, read your fate. Gaming is a fine way to pass the night...as long as one is careful. Games of chance have outcomes that are hidden from us, and as such Perth represents secrets unknown. Perth symbolizes enjoyment and wild abandon, but be watchful, for Perth is also the rune of mystery and the outcomes unexpected. You cannot lose if you do not play, but neither can you win...
The middle rune represents a deciding element of
the present
is the rune of joy. The reversal of this rune suggests that joy is withheld. Since joy is frequently communal, this rune often suggests loneliness. Alternatively, some have seen Wunjo as the rune of perfection and the rune of the gods. Therefore this rune reversed could signal a feeling of separation from one's deity, or as imperfection in an important work.
The right rune represents the critical element of
the future
is one of the runes that touches on the cycles of the year, in this case the fall harvest. These cycles are eternal, which is represented in the rune by the fact that it is unchanged by reversal. Ger can represent pregnancy or other forms of fruitfulness, and is especially indicative of the cycles of providence and karma - that which has been sown is now being reaped. This rune can also represent the cycles of wealth, for crops were frequently a sign of wealth.

Chuck Season 5 Episode 10
Chuck Versus Bo
Morgan finds a message he sent himself, saying that there was another pair of intersect glasses somewhere. Team Bartowski heads out in search of them, when they run into Bo Derek in Vail. She and Morgan had a thing when he was the intersect, but it turns out she was just a spy finding out information about the intersect for her boss.
The team finds the glasses, but Bo Derek's boss Quinn gets away. He comes back for the glasses, kidnaps Chuck, and corners Sarah and Casey. With no hope, Sarah does the only thing she can to survive, downloads the intersect and defeats all the bad guys in her way.
Meanwhile, Jeff and Lester's plan to undercover what their friends have been up to is foiled when Casey writes "They are not spies" on Jeff's arm, and erases their memories.

Here is another helpful hint that I intend to use real soon. I have found that in cooking for one person, I can put 2 Pillsbury Grand Buttermilk frozen biscuits right out of the freezer and into a toaster oven set at 400 degrees, then I put some bacon in my George Foreman grill on the top part and sliced potatoes on the lower part.
The ridges in the grill keeps the bacon from shriveling up and both sides cook at the same time. The grease drips through the potatoes and into a catch container and I place that over into a cool skillet of eggs turned to medium heat. Everything is all done at once and nothing burns and the only thing left is to decide how much to eat and how much to pass on to the dog, LOL |

sigh. every morning a quarter past five....poodle does his little dance (half on my head.... half on what ever other vermit has krept up on the pillow beside me) so i take rotten out...i do not wake up. i just kinda wait inside the door with my nose sticking out if its cold and if its warm enough i may sit on the step and wait....but i do not really wake up. this is a good system because if i make it back to the bed with out actually waking up.... i might get another hour of sleep in before angel wants out (you know...because heaven forbid they coordinate.) then its time to wake up for good. blah.
so i thought, well i will just be slick and drag an 80 pound dog out of her cave..... if i can just get her over the door jam...surely nature will take over.... and maybe...just maybe...i can squeeze in an extra twenty minutes in there. nope. she went to the end of the porch and sat down. um.... ok. now im going to have to get her off the porch. so i go....do that and on the way back (and remember at this point eyes are half open im bare foot, on a cold wet porch...but somehow not awake)stepped on a slug. well there goes that idea....just no way to fall back into slumber once i have had to face the blazing bright bathroom. this was like... a mutant monster slug... at least three inches long. now that i am fully awake...i vaguely remember having a slug problem last year. sure my container garden is whats bringing them in large numbers....last year...if you went out at just the right time, you could catch as many as three or four monsters, a couple intermediates. and a dozen babies..... so im thinking that's enough to say its an infestation. probably should do something about that. in the mean time, good morning everyone. gave up on sleep <rolls eyes> and have the you tube jukebox going this morning. last dance with mary jane- tom petty hook-blues traveler http://www.youtube.com/watch...

im thinking (mainly because of hubby starting school and we will be transitioning income sources and im in freak out/stock up mode) like a layer of half gallons on the bottom of my deep freeze. thinking i need to take out about half a cup per container and that should make close to a gallon for us to drink now. also thinking a single layer in my deep freeze (like a 7 cubic feet chest) i could do about twenty half gallons. any idea how long they last? we like milk so i think i could have them gone in three months... and i would think it would be like infant milk and keep for six months....but googling of course came up with a hundred different answers for what i thought to be a pretty simple question. |
May 9, 2013
never tried it with taters...but we use a knock off grill to do burgers and i like to put bacon at the top, once everything is just about done i wipe the lid clean and top cheese and bacon and the top bun, then the bottom bun turned opposite, and close but not squeeze the lid down and unplug it. cheese melted, buns warm. def going to have to try the potatos...that sounds so good. |
May 9, 2013
well....slug ended up being a blessing.
i was awake to hear the phone, one of the other ladies called in and if i hurry it up i can get a full eight hours (and right now im not turning down any way to make some extra money) hope everyone has a good day |
May 9, 2013

Good morning,folks. Today is dawning bright and sunny. Makes the grass grow...poor Hubby has been mowing and weed eating. I need to learn to use our new mower. I used to mow the whole place on our smaller ZTR mower. Now Hubby has bought a new one and it's huge, and a bit intimidating. It is supposed to have a slow gear,but it seems to have two---fast and faster. And when you hit one of those crawfish mud mounds--poof and the dried mud goes flying. It dulls the blade, but we have some wet places, and you can't avoid them.
@ Betty: You have great ideas. I'll have to try some of them. I know what it is like to step on slugs..Squash! @AW: Stein sends his regards to Dog. Stein is busy sleeping on the bed, head on pillow, as I type. He's got imitating humans down to a science. Hope that everyone has a good day. I'll pop back in later. Lala |

I was in South Carolina for 8 years, and Baltimore for 2, I know what you mean about not getting good sea food, it's either frozen or you're paying for shipping... But, some of the ways one can cook spam is pretty good. Many things I guess are an acquired taste? |

I'm glad I didn't see this before you went to bed... I'd hate to mess up your nice dreams and all But, the corn ain't planted yet |
May 9, 2013
Oh yes, my corn is planted and I don't really care about yours LOL Nothing you can post would ever mess up my nice dreams. The CREATOR offers too many blessings to allow some unknown poster to affect my life and living. LOL Have a good day!!
It is finally dry enough here that I can mow at least parts of my 2 acres and by the time I finish that, the sunshine should take care of the rest. |
May 9, 2013
You people are right, there is no need to debate so much about such meaningless things. The butthurtaltoboy's point is poot anyways.
My time is about up folks, why worry? How was it that Dr. Seuss put it.....On life...dont cry because its over, smile because it happened. UK debate team! 1979! Go cats! Hehehehe |
May 9, 2013
It's upset you from the get-go And from the looks of every post, you're still foaming at the mouth over it Lol You had a time? I won't, but you seem to take this all a weeeeeee bit too serious Lol You were a cheerleader for a debate team? You go gurl.... |
May 9, 2013
I don't plant corn Lol Ok, sorry about the daydreams then Lol Calling for help from the big guy is sorta self defeating... Try simply getting over your anger first Lol I always do... But you seem a miss... 2 acres? Don't over work your self... Lol |
May 9, 2013
Just as you have no corn, I have no anger and I am not calling on the CREATOR for support. The CREATOR offers it freely to those that trust and believe and have respect for others as well as the CREATIONS.
I have survived many decades of those that think their intelligence will sustain them. But when the final curtain is drawn and the mind goes blank, what then? Will your intelligence live on? or was it all for naught? What will history and memories of you reflect? I have about 1 1/2 acres finished and now to do the easy part. I always like to do the hardest part of any chore first and get that out of the way. Then it is smooth sailing. |
May 9, 2013
Well if you were on the 1979 debate team, I am much closer to the end of the trail than you are and once a person rounds that last bend, they get a whole new perspective on what is really important and what is not. Most of what appears on these Topix threads is just entertainment and falls within the "NOT" category. |
May 9, 2013
Yep. I just drop in here every now and again to see what you people are up to.
There's too much spring out there to be in here during the day unless its rainy. Its good to see old humpaburn is still smoking. |

It was dry the last two days, but we are headed for more rain. Not good. The lake looks like it's fixing to spill over into the homes that are built near it. I worry about that.

marranox | ok so this is a basic attempt to mike's setup. exp 2 up is clean and down is crunch. there's an octaver for songs like when it comes, 2 phasers, the first one very soft more like the mxr and the second one's more like the ph-2 combining it with delay number 2 for songs like are you in, nice to know you or the warmth, the 2 delay's a sweep effect for songs like megalomaniac, there's also a rotary drum for that leslie like sound and finally a chorus. i recommend using it with pedalboard mode, each effect with it's own switch, any suggestions will be welcome | 5/3/13 |

Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).
The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.
Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.
For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.
Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.

I have been working at Macy's
ProsGood benefits if you can get them.
ConsNo respect from management or customers. All push for getting charges and sales but no consideration for the fact there are too few associates working, too much area to cover by ones self, really bad pay raises (worked for Kaufmann's/Macy's for almost 9 years and do not even make $9 per hour), they've cut vacation time, they've pitted one associate against another for sales and accounts. Used to be fun but not any longer.
Advice to ManagementAdviceListen to those of us who are out on the floor.........give us a reason to want to come to work. You put us down at every turn. The more you work, the less you are appreciated. Proven full timers should have the pick of the shifts not the part timers. The part timers can work all dayturn if they want and no weekends. They can say if they want to work or not.........they can have a life...........not those of us who have put years into the company and proven ourselves to be useful, productive employees. Give us decent pay raises. What I make is a joke for the number of years I've been with the company. Do not rate our reviews on the entire store........rate us on what we do as individuals. Give us the help we need and do away with the dead wood in the store. Give me credit for what I do, sales/accounts/bridal work as we do not have a bridal consultant.
Doesn't RecommendNo opinion of CEO -

I worked at Macy's
ProsPretty easy work. Nothing too challenging. Management was very understanding about school and personal schedules.
ConsI was not satisfied with the advancement opportunities. I was very unhappy with the managements insistence that we speak to customers in a robotic fashion...we were told to input the word, "outstanding" as often as possible. It felt fake and insincere. I also disliked how you were supposed to hound the customers about whether or not they had Macys' Cards.
Advice to ManagementAdvicePlease allow a more relaxed customer service attitude. Most of my coworkers were happy to help customers, but when there was a manager looking over our shoulder, it made us nervous and I believe lowered our level of service.

WORTHINGTON -- Three new members were appointed to the Worthington Regional Hospital Board of Trustees at Monday's meeting. Tom Lavelle will fill the unexpired term of Jason Turner, who resigned due to other commitments, effective Dec. 31.
WORTHINGTON -- Three new members were appointed to the Worthington Regional Hospital Board of Trustees at Monday's meeting. Tom Lavelle will fill the unexpired term of Jason Turner, who resigned due to other commitments, effective Dec. 31. Kelly Monthei and Gary Kellen were appointed for initial three-year terms, filling the expired terms of Gary Hoffmann and Grant Sorenson. The board also approved the slate of officers for 2007: David Jueneman, chairman; Steve Robinson, vice chairman; and John Widboom, secretary-treasurer.
OKABENA -- On Tuesday morning, Jan Hartman added the finishing touch to the tally sheet that has hung on the side of her refrigerator for several weeks. A succession of figures had been scribbled and then crossed off, each bigger than the last. Writing down the final number was the culmination of more than a month of mixing and baking.
PHOENIX -- On his Web site, Craig Stellpflug has a section that he calls "Almost Famous Quotes" that contains some of his life philosophies. "I'm really not that original," he explains about the page. "Everything I know and say and do I have learned or borrowed from somewhere." A quote he likes but that isn't posted on this page is certainly apropos to Craig's own life. "One of the things I like to say is, 'If you want something done, give it to a busy person,'" he related.
WORTHINGTON -- While he was working on his renowned oratorio, "Messiah," legend has it that George Frideric Handel's valet would find the composer weeping silently at his desk, overcome by the beauty and majesty of the music that was flowing from his pen. Local organizers of an upcoming concert of "Messiah" hope that listeners will be similarly struck by the composition as it is performed by a community choir and orchestra. "The music is so gorgeous, so wonderful, that we are all reveling in the beauty of what we are doing," reflected director Linda Lang.
On Nov. 19, 2005, the Daily Globe first shared the story of JoAnne Toft Ackel and her granddaughter, Amber, then 2 years old. In the aftermath of the hurricanes that destroyed much of the Gulf Coast, JoAnne brought Amber, who was seriously disabled after contracting bacterial meningitis, from their home in Lake Charles, La., to her hometown of Luverne, in hope of improving the little girl's life.
WORTHINGTON -- By 1 p.m. Thursday, most of the crowd assembled at Worthington's First Lutheran Church looked ready to take a tryptophan-induced nap. After all, they'd consumed about 200 pounds of turkey, which is known to contain the drowsiness-provoking amino acid. As longtime diners recalled, it was probably the 24th year for Worthington's Community Thanksgiving Dinner, a volunteer-driven event that brings together people from throughout the area to indulge in a traditional feast of turkey, potatoes and gravy, dressing, squash, corn, green bean casserole, rolls and pie.
WORTHINGTON -- The Worthington Regional Hospital Board of Trustees approved the 2007 budget Monday with a 6.86 percent increase for services at the hospital. However, the increase is not across the board because of low reimbursement rates from sources such as Medicare, Medical Assistance and Blue Plus. Some areas will see no rate increase. "Take dialysis. We get one payment rate for a dialysis run, and at least 99 percent of those patients are on Medicare," said Bruce Viessman, WRH director of finance.
WORTHINGTON --After decorating his tree-shaped sugar cookie with red gum drops and a heavy load of green sugar, 4-year-old Will Brandner surveyed his handiwork and decided, "I need blue bulbs." A search among the decorating options didn't turn up any blue ornaments, but Will made do with some blue sugar and later added some bright pink sugar, too, creating a brightly colored and heavily laden tree. The cookie-decorating station was just one of many activity options Will and more than 20 other 3- to 5-year-old children could choose from at the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America-s
WORTHINGTON -- Warning to motorists traveling on Interstate 90 in the coming weeks: Don't be distracted by the lights shining just to the north of the U.S. 59 exit. If you want a better look, take the next exit and head toward the Prairie Holdings building (former Prairie Expo), across from the Travelodge on U.S. 59. Prairie Dazzle, a charity drive-through holiday display, will illuminate the Prairie Holdings property from Thanksgiving night through Jan. 1.

Dear Friends,
For me, access to quality and affordable child care is personal.
business, I realized there were many women in the community starting to care for children out of their homes. Many would care for several children without a license, compromising safety and quality. For some, the language barrier and confusing state bureaucracy in applying for a license was a hurdle that was difficult to overcome.
The only way we can meet demands of the 21st century job market is by investing in quality early childhood education. Research shows that for every dollar invested in early childhood education, there is a return of $2.50 to $17. Not building this critical infrastructure of opportunity jeopardizes our nation's ability to thrive in a global economy and maintain our competitive edge. The U.S. is already falling behind–ranking 25th in the world in early learning enrollment of 4-year-olds. By investing in the future of all our children we are making a commitment to the success of our country.
Next Steps
Long Term: Establishing a Children's Trust Fund
Short Term: Reforming Child Care Services
Before we can establish a dedicated funding source for programs serving youth, we need to establish an infrastructure that will help make sure those funds go where they are needed most. That's why during this year's budget, I plan to work collaboratively with the County Executive to establish a Children's Opportunity Fund. This Fund, in partnership with Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) and the County Government, will be used to hire a Fund Coordinator and a researcher that will study the outcomes of youth programs. The Fund will also help us pay for new initiatives targeted at supporting services for children and teenagers.
Tomorrow, the Council is scheduled to discuss Executive Regulation 15-14AM–Childcare Regulations for Before and After School Childcare Programs in Public Schools. These regulations set the guidelines for how child care providers are selected to operate in MCPS facilities. For many years, this process was run by the Office of Community Use of
Public Facilities (CUPF) in partnership with MCPS. The regulations proposed by the Executive were inadequate because they did not include any reference to collaboration with MCPS or the quality of the child care that would be provided in the school. I called on the joint HHS/ED Committee to reject these regulations and send them back for the Executive to make these changes. I'm pleased to say the regulations that will come before the Council tomorrow
include these essential elements.
I am also introducing legislation that will create a Child Care Expansion and Quality Enhancement Initiative. This Initiative would require County Government to do much of the work I did while at Centro Familia. HHS staff would be responsible for:
- Educating prospective family child care providers on steps necessary to become licensed by the State;
- Providing technical assistance and business training to family child care providers;
- If requested, conducting a site-visit for potential family child care providers to provide feedback and assistance to obtain state licensing;
- Providing services in languages other than English, in a culturally competent manner; and
- Conducting an annual assessment of child care needs in the County and preparing an annual report.
Closing the academic achievement gap and making sure every student is prepared to learn on their first day of school is the socioeconomic imperative of our time. Every child deserves a chance to succeed and that cannot happen without access to quality, affordable child care for all. It won't be easy to accomplish this goal, but with your help and support we will ensure every child can have a strong and bright future.

It was a match-up of the heavy-weights in round 17 of rugby league's Appliance Shed Fox Memorial Shield as the Marist Saints and the Papakura Sea Eagles went head-to-head.
A quiet opening stanza exploded in the 24th minute when Andrew Sau ran through the Marist defence, flattening four defenders before eventually being dragged down metres short.
But from there it was an easy catch and pass try out wide for the Sea Eagles and with the conversion successful it was 6-0 to Papakura.
The Sea Eagles finished off the half with a bang, Soloman Smith easing through to make it 10-2 at halftime.
Marist managed to get on the board early in the second half when Misi Ma'u went in after a Sea Eagles' mistake saw him regather and run 50 metres to score untouched.
On the 60-minute mark Peter Savelio grabbed the Saints' second making it 18-14 Sea Eagles with five to go. With time ticking down, the Sea Eagles managed to wrap it up through dynamic fullback George Edwards, winning it for Papakura 24-14.
Two rounds remaining and the Northcote Tigers held a two-point advantage going into their game with the Bay Roskill Vikings. But the Vikings have shown enough this season to say that it is not yet over.
A perfect start for the Vikings had Sione Niuvao cross and with a successful Pariti Matiu conversion it was an early lead to Bay Roskill.
Five minutes later the day got even better for the Vikings, Andrew Tuise got on the end of a Chris Perenara bomb and made his way under the sticks to make it 10-0.
Finally, Northcote managed to find a way through the Bay Roskill defence and after much confusion as to whether the ball was grounded, the Tigers were awarded the try.
Coming out after the break we witnessed a near-perfect opening 10 minutes from the Vikings. Putting pin point kicks behind the Tigers' line eventually led to a Lamese West try and allowed the Vikings to extend their lead.
Northcote continued to pound away at the Vikings' line and managed to pull back two late tries.
But it was not enough and the Vikings managed to grab a valuable win, downing the Tigers 38-34.
ROUND 17 RESULTS Bay Roskill Vikings 38 (22) v 34 (12) Northcote Tigers Papakura Sea Eagles 24 (10) v 14 (2) Marist Saints

Arizona Coyotes
Coyotes raise more than $165,000 for families of late Granite Mountain Hotshots
Before a crowd of 6,361 at Jobing.com Arena, the Coyotes held an intrasquad game to benefit the families of the Granite Mountain Hotshots.
There were three check presentations:
-$5,000 from the Coyotes alumni group
-$25,000 from the Coyotes players
-$135,198 from the Coyotes ownership group
In all, $165,198 was raised.
Head coach Dave Tippett called it an "unbelieveable, successful night."
The final score was Red 2, White 1
Mikkel Boedker and Andy Miele scored for the Red team, both past goalie Mike Smith while Rob Klinkhammer scored for the White team.
The night ended with a shootout. Unfortunately nobody scored until Brendan Shinnimin on the 16th opportunity.
Shane Doan didn't play the last half of the game. He left with some sort of muscle pull, according to Tippett, who added that the injury was nothing serious.

The Tourist is obviously a great film. If it wasn't I wouldn't own it on DVD. Edge of Tomorrow was more the surprise. I am the first to say that I am not a Tom Cruise fan, but in this film he did a good job. Emily Blunt on the other hand is my favorite actress of all time. She can do no wrong! The film kept me wondering what would happen next. It made me question whether the characters would prevail or whether they would fail in their mission. The only fault with the film is that the ending scenes are too dark. As a viewer, we understand that lack of light adds to the scenes mood, but when the lighting becomes too dark, it distracts from the plot as you are so focused on the fact that you can't tell what is happening. Other than that, I thought it was awesome. The ending, depending on the viewer, is either really clever or leaves the viewer wanting more. I thought it was clever!
Then, on Saturday, half the day had passed before I got up. When I did finally appear from my room, I decided I wanted to do something fun a.k.a procrastinate on homework. So, Whit and I decided to venture off to the closest thing we have to a "City." On our way, we discovered a great photo spot, which we will be visiting again sometime with my DSLR. The view is breathtaking!

Despite the controversy that has embroiled Qatar since winning the bid to host the 2022 world cup tournament, the gulf country is ploughing ahead with innovative plans to build dynamic new stadiums that will change the face of the country's landscape. The knock-on effect of the tournament and the lead up to it, which will bring some of the world's leading architects and urban planners to the Gulf, will hopefully mean that critically landscaping issues are addressed such as irrigation and water shortages and planting in arid desert communities. In this issue, Dr Anna Grichting, from the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning in Qatar University pens a piece for us addressing the logical trends in Landscape and Urbanism, Smart Cities, Food Urbanism, Urban Biodiveristy, Border Ecologies and Public Art in a bid to answer the question; how can landscape help to create more liveable and sustainable environments in arid countries? (page 12). Don't miss our urban design features on Beirut harbour square and Croatia's Mulini beach promenade, in the town of Rovinj. (page 28, 38)

Every programmer knows that the early development of the programmable electronic computer was largely spurred by the crypto-war between the British intelligence services and the German navy in WWII. Less known is that the infamous German Enigma cryptography machines were just a modification of off-the-shelf equipment used by banks in the mid-1930s to encode sensitive data about wire transfers. Nowadays, the need to encode sensitive information is more important than ever. Consider devices such as USB thumb drives, which can store an entire CD's worth of data in a package the size of a cigarette lighter. Can your data ever be safe if it can all be downloaded in a few clicks and then carried out the door? Encryption of your data gives you one more level of security beyond merely the physical. The good news is that you can encrypt regularly and painlessly with a C++ class library such as Crypto++. The Crypto++ library is unabashedly a best-of-breed creature: rather than re-implement many popular schemes, the Crypto++ project seeks to integrate them under a uniform framework based on simple abstract base classes. A complete list of features and ciphers would be too long to include here, but the following are a few I found important: Crypto++ supports a wide variety of platforms, including Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.0, 7.0, 7.1, and 8.0, GCC 3.X and 4.0 for Unix and Windows, MacOS X, and Sun Solaris systems, to name a few. A Visual Studio .NET project file was included in Crypto++ 5.2.1 and imported into Visual Studio .NET 2003 without any problems. The project file creates cryptopp.dll, which is about 1.7MB in a DEBUG build. You may add #define CRYPTOPP_DEFAULT_NO_DLL to use a static library implementation rather than a DLL interface, if you desire. Unlike many such libraries, the Crypto++ distro doesn't include a lot of convoluted scripts and makefiles. In general, you can simply recompile the source code and make your own library. For a "Hello World" example, I wanted to build the simplest command-line-driven program that could encrypt and decrypt files. Basically, you pass it the following three files on the command line: The program then prompts for a passphrase, which is used during the encryption/decryption. Let me dissect the code line-by-line to see how it's done. To get the ball rolling, you only need to include the two Crypto++ header files, dll.h and default.h (see lines #3-4). The USING_NAMESPACE() macro allows Crypto++ to work around old compilers whose namespace handling is broken (see lines #12-13). Getting into the main() function, you see that all the code is wrapped in a try/catch block. You can expect Crypto++ API failures to result in throwing CryptoPP::Exception, and you also trap std::exception for good measure. The passphrase is a string of up to 250 characters that you will use to encrypt and later decrypt the file. Now, step inside the little application functions EncryptFile() and DecryptFile() to see how it's really done (lines #44-52): In C++ fashion, the FileSource constructor does all the work and then as EncryptFile() returns, the destructor cleans up after it. I don't think you can get any more object-oriented than this design—at least as far as declarative coding goes. The following are the four possible arguments used in this constructor: In this case, you let binary mode default to true and create your own BufferedTransformation object with a new DefaultEncryptorWithMAC() call. A BufferedTransformation is an object that takes a stream of bytes as input (this may be done in stages), does some computation on them, and then places the result into an internal buffer for later retrieval. Any partial result already in the output buffer is not modified by further input. (A demonstration of blocking I/O is outside the immediate scope of this article.) Now, take a closer look at the third argument in the FileSource constructor back on line #46: Finally, you get to see the use of the passPhrase as sent down to the default encryptor, and you create a FileSink object that will open the output file and manage the buffering to the output file. Again, you could take manual control of the I/O buffering for performance or other reasons. At the end, you have a BufferedTransformation object with an encryptor and its corresponding Message Authentication Code as derived from the key. To test the encryption/decryption, input the Constitution of the United States as the input file, store the intermediate encrypted file, and decrypt to test it as follows: As you can see from the above test (and my own diffs later), the input and output files were identical and the intermediate file was precisely 43 bytes larger than the input or output. I would show you what the encrypted file looked like, but it is just so much random-looking data at that point. Another easy-to-implement Crypto++ task is RSA signing and verification of files. RSA was named after its inventors Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman in 1977. RSA involves two keys: public key and private key (a key is a constant number later used in the encryption formula.) The public key is known to everyone and is used to encrypt messages. These messages can be decrypted only by use of the private key. In other words, anybody can encrypt a message, but only the holder of a private key can actually decrypt and read it. RSA is also often used for signing messages. The most common example of this is protecting software license files from tampering while still keeping them human readable. In this case, the signature data is embedded as a hexadecimal string inside the license file. The function RSASignFile() in the following code takes a private key file and a message to be signed, and then writes the RSA signature to the final named file. To verify the file with RSAVerify(), you must supply the public key file, the message again, and its signature: Beyond the obvious financial and military applications, cryptography can be used to store any information you would prefer not to leave accessible to everyone and everything. With seven million Americans reporting identity theft every year, any options you can give your users to increase their data security will surely make them breathe easier. This article has barely scratched the surface of what Crypto++ can do for you. Perhaps its best aspect is that it can keep up with your needs for more sophisticated algorithms, ciphers, and compression, and thus provide a stable vehicle for your app to enter crypto-land.

(Lol yes this story is named after Rihanna's song Rude Boy.. Yes its a Rated R story so if you not into that kind of stuff.. Please read my other story 'I Wish' :)
!!! ~this is not a chapter just an introduction~ !!!
Main 4 Characters;
Shaye (pronounced Shay)- a small 17 year old barbadian beauty, crazy curly hair, hazel eyes, a dress to impress girl.. A girl you'd judge by looks straight up, but just to let you know she's a real innocent geek :) well until... Usually saying 'bitch please'
Chantelle - tall, african american, BIG BOOTY, glowing skin complexion, light brown eyes, straight talking, a bit revealing, always hungry but again a innocent yet LOUD 17 year old girl did I mention? She can MOVE THAT BOOTAY! Usually saying 'wagwaans' haha.
Kerris - tall, caribbean, mixed race, long curly hair, greeny/brown eyes, very sarcastic, a quiet, chilled out 17 year old but once she starts.. She doesn't finish.
Paige - tall, white, english/american/spanish, long hair, slightly curly, bright blue eyes, funny, weird, crazy, baby of the group at 16.. But let's say she's the prettiest haha.
The girls have been together since 7th grade and are pretty inseparable, even when it comes to boys they soon hit highschool and not much changes apart from the boys they're introduced to.. Chresanto, Craig, Rayan and Jacob, yep they're sexy/hot/fine all'a'that but they're trouble, they make a change in the girls lives... And not for the best.
Please Vote/Read/Comment. I know this isn't that good but its just the start!
Oh & btw I got the idea for this whilst listening to Rihanna Rude Boy.. Was it a good idea? *crosses fingers*
Goal; 2-votes, 1Comment, 15-30 reads :) thank you xxx
