According to Lange, the master hub for Mercury dimes was apparently lightly damaged before the sinking of dies for 1926, so that all Mercury dimes from then through the end of the series show the olive branch on the right side disconnected from its nexus with the fasces. The 1927-D was struck to the extent of less than 5 million pieces, making it the 12th-lowest mintage in the series.

We were referred to this campground by another campground which was full. We pulled into this place and should have pulled out, but we were tired. The campground is old and not taken care of, the bathrooms and showers were bad. Our septic line backed up and we had we had to dump at another site. The park caters to monthly, but most the rigs were clean. This park is still a pretty park, grassy and shady, just run down and dirty. Due to recent flooding (which had not reached the park) the water was not fit to drink, luckily it did not leave a stain. This place was way over priced, don't bother stopping. We camped at Honey Creek Campground in a Travel Trailer.Undo

It's game one. I think they'll come out a little better next game after feeling it out, and I think they'll be able to win it.
You kidding. What about that breakaway girardi gave them in the third? And our dmen were turned inside out all game. We gave up 50 shots

SONOS Remote Control
This app is written because other Sonos apps are too slow for the most simple tasks (like volume control).
The app is not a replacement for the official Sonos Controller app, but merely serves as a quick remote for your Sonos system.
Furthermore, it allows you to configure the music that you would like to start automatically on your Sonos Zoneplayers as soon as you connect to your home Wi-Fi and to mute music when a phone call is active.
------ Features ------
• Autodiscovery of your Sonos Zoneplayers.
• Playback (play, pause, stop) & Volume control
• Group zones (un-group by clicking the stop button on the specific zone widget)
• Quick access to your favorite radio stations, Sonos playlists, Line-in, Sonos Favorites
• Quick search and play Albums, Artists, Tracks
• Support for multiple widgets, each controlling a zone and having its own color.
• Start official Sonos app (big widget only)
• Zone and group volume control
• Sleep Timer
• Auto-play (selected music starts automatic when connect to your home Wi-Fi) for each zone with optional confirmation.
• Auto-mute on active phone call
• Volume/Play/Pause control from the notification bar
------ Manual ------
[Adding your ZonePlayers]
• The first time you place a widget on your home-screen, you have to configure your Sonos Zoneplayer(s).
You can either fill in the IP address(es) manually or autodiscover them.
• You will only be allowed to add IP addresses of Zoneplayers that are currently accessible, because the app
will automatically fetch info (like the name of the zone) from the Zoneplayer.
• Once you have configured all Zoneplayers, you can hit the 'Place Widget' button and it will ask you which one of the
configured/discovered Zoneplayers you want to control with the widget that you are currently adding to the home-screen. You can also change the color of the widget so that you can easily distinguish between your different Zoneplayers. Both color and opacity can be changed.
• Each time you add a new QuickSonosWidget widget to your home-screen, you will get the same configuration screen, where you can add/remove Zoneplayers.
[Volume control]
• With the Volume Control buttons (below and above the name of the zone on the home-screen widget), you can control the volume
of that zone. Group volume can be controlled by clicking the name of the zone.
• The Play/Pause button will start/pause the music on the Zoneplayer
• The Stop button will stop the music
• With the Join button, you can link the player, attached to this widget, to another player that is currently active (playing). If multiple other players are playing different sources (queue, radio station, ...) you get a pop-up containing a list of the other configured/discovered Zoneplayers that can be grouped to the
Zoneplayer of this widget. If there is only one other source playing on your other players, it will automatically join that source.
• With the Music button, you get a pop-up where you can choose between Radio Station, Sonos Playlist, Line-In, Sonos Favorite, search for Album. Artist or Track.
Here you can also define if the selected source should be started automatically next time you connect to your home Wi-Fi.
• With the Info button, you get a pop-up with info: play state (PLAYING, STOPPED), current track, album, artist, radio station, group master, ...
• Starts the official Sonos app
• Configure a sleep timer
[Sonos Zone Icon]
• Configure auto-play/mute options and the color of the widget
If you encounter any issue, you can always click the "Email Log" button in the configure screen of the app to send the logging to us so we can investigate the issue.

Mute for Sonos
* The widget is deliberately incredibly simple.
* There is no configuration whatsoever.
* The widget always mutes *all* of your Sonos systems. There is no option to mute a selection of them.
* The default mute period is 30 seconds. Each additional tap of the widget adds a further 30 seconds' mute time.
* The mute cannot be cancelled (but you can manually override it via standard Sonos software).
* The number of discovered Sonos systems is shown in a little bubble attached to the edge of the widget.
* Initial discovery can sometimes take a few seconds.
All permissions are needed in order to communicate with Sonos systems over the connected wi-fi network.
Mute for Sonos uses the Cling library for UPnP protocol support. Cling is CDDL licensed, and more information is available at http://4thline.org/projects/cling/.

Jack's Music Widget
Jack's Music Widget should work with any music player that displays controls and album art on the lockscreen.
For more font options, upgrade to the Plus version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jackthakar.musicwidget.plus
Note on Android 5.0: The current version of this app should work fine on Lollipop, but I'm working on a new version that adds additional features by using the new APIs available on 5.0.
Apps Confirmed to Work (v1.1.2 fixes issues with artist not displaying):
• Google Play Music
• Spotify (currently having issues)
• Pandora
• SoundCloud
• Apollo
• Rdio
• iHeartRadio
• DoubleTwist
• TuneIn Radio
• PowerAmp
• Rhapsody
• MixZing
• InfiniTracks
• Pocket Casts
• Songza
Let me know of any others that work and I'll add them to the list.
If you switch between different music players, you don't need to switch widgets. Just stop playing music in one app and start in another and the widget should switch.
Starting in 1.1, there are two widgets: one designed for a 4x1 or 4x2 grid and one with full bleed album art (works best when roughly square).
Additionally, there are three themes to choose from (dark, light, and transparent) for the 4x1 widget.
This widget will not work until you go to Security>Notification access in settings and check "Jack's Music Widget"
Unfortunately, the APIs that allow this are new in Kit Kat, so I can't port it back to earlier versions.
Developers: If you want your music app to work with this widget (and other apps which use the new KitKat RemoteController APIs), make sure that you setup a RemoteControlClient and pass the appropriate metadata (this widget uses album art, song title, and artist name).

If innovation doesn't help to make developmentIt more sustainable its not innovation to begin with. For sustainable development it is inherent to make significantly more use of flat organisation, connecting emerging ideas and initiatives. All kinds of knowledge have to get connected and added up to become more than the sum of the its elements. This co-production of knowledge, or joint knowledge production, is therefore fundamental for innovation networks. We are only at the beginning of…Continue

- July 2011
- Venere Guest

- Brazil
The hotel actually is a motel. The space for 1 person is ok. The bathroom is ok, besides some hairs that I found on towel and on the wall. The bath needs a better cleanliness, but to use the shower only is ok. The bed is comfortable and was clean. In the room, I slept with some very small and white flying insects. This was the really bad thing. I realized that they are attracted by light, so I left the bathroom light on to sleep better. The breakfast is very limited. So you need extra food to have energy to go to all attractions in park. I wrote all this because I want to help all kind of people. If you will stay 1 or 2 nights it's ok, but if you are going to stay longer, find another place. Also, the price I paid U$100 is too much. I would be happy if the price was U$40~50max. The front desk guy is a decent person, gave me all information I asked very kindly. I would stay in this hotel again if the price is 50% less.

Forks Over Knives
In a nation that spends trillions on health care, one film puts the power of good health back in the hands of Americans.
For the better part of the last few years, our nation's "health care crisis" has dominated daily news and done its fair share of fear mongering among the US population. With each newscast, ominous music plays in the background as frightening buzzwords are spouted off: childhood obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. As the country looked toward Washington for answers, Brian Wendel, Lee Fulkerson, and their crew took the road less traveled by mainstream media, putting the finishing touches on a project determined to tell the world about a revolutionary—and simple—solution to its ailing health: Focus on your fork, and soon forget the cost of going under the knife.
Forks Over Knives, Wendel's first feature-length documentary, explores the powerful correlation between diet and disease, and the conclusion is hard to dispute. The film focuses on the groundbreaking research of T. Colin Campbell, PhD, and Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr., MD. Raised to revere milk as "nature's perfect food," both men discovered alarming facts about its relation to disease, along with other animal products, through years of research. When the two finally met, the combination of Campbell's scientific data with Esselstyn's clinical trials solidified their conclusion: the Standard American Diet is killing us.
Campbell's powerful publication, The China Study, lies at the root of the film. "I knew there was a fair amount of research that whole-foods, plant-based nutrition can prevent—and in many cases reverse—disease, but I didn't know the extent of it until I read The China Study," Wendel says. In the end, he left his 14-year career in real estate, hired the most talented film crew he could find, and set out to make Forks Over Knives. Lee Fulkerson, writer and director, was hesitant to join the project at first. At the time, Fulkerson's own diet consisted of multiple energy drinks and sodas—approximately four for breakfast—to make it through his hectic days, until dinnertime delivered a fast-food double cheeseburger, onion rings, and chocolate shake. In an unexpected twist, Fulkerson joins the ranks of the film's "reality patients," seeking to improve his own well-being.
Joey Aucoin is another featured patient who adopts a plant-based diet in the film, beginning the experiment with a laundry list of ailments, including high cholesterol (320 to be exact), type 2 diabetes, and high risk for both heart attack and stroke. His medication set him back roughly $200 a month, in addition to the cost of his health insurance. He embodied one of the film's featured proverbs: "One-quarter of what you eat keeps you alive. The other three-quarters keeps your doctor alive." At the end of his trial, Aucoin had lost weight, lowered his cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugars, and successfully ditched all nine drugs he was taking.
The patients' personalities paired with an intimate look at the lives of Campbell and Esselstyn give the film a relatable, anecdotal edge to gently guide viewers through the compelling science. "We wanted to tell stories, because that's how information sticks with people. We didn't want to have a talking-heads documentary," Wendel says. As production of the film proceeded, similar changes began spreading through the rest of the crew. Every person on the core team adopted a plant-based diet, including the producer, co-producer, and interns. Based on the omnivorous crew's initial reactions, as well as the positive response at screenings, Forks Over Knives is striking a chord.
But it isn't purposeful shock value or scare tactics that drives Forks. Both ends of the spectrum are represented in an effort to achieve a credible, even-handed tone. "I personally don't like telling people what to do, but this film is about giving people the information so they can make truly informed decisions," Wendel says. With advanced screenings in cities across the US, the movie is set to be officially released May 6. "It's really easy to be negative, and in this film we focus on the positive. This is a message of hope; all we have to do is go down the right aisle in the supermarket," Wendel says.

A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone, cell phone, and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving around a wide geographic area. It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing access to the public telephone network. By contrast, a cordless telephone is used only within the short range of a single, private base station.
In addition to telephony, modern mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging, MMS, email, Internet access, short-range wireless communications (infrared, Bluetooth), business applications, gaming and photography. Mobile phones that offer these and more general computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones.

Differing investing results when done during career or as retiree
On the day that you became employed, you had brains and hands at work ... and no money.
One the day that you retire, you have brains and money at work ... and no hands.
Suppose you have $100.00 and invest it at 10%.
At the end of the year it'll provide you with $10.00 ... and if you're retired and need the money, you'll put the money in your pocket and use it to live on.
At the end of year two, same thing happens again.
After ten years, the total amount that your $100.00 original investment has earned is $100.00 - it has doubled.
However, while you are operating your life in your career, prudently living on your current income, let's say that you invest an equal $100.00 and have it earn 10%, as well.
The difference is that you leave the $10.00 interest/growth earned after the first year with the original amount, to earn a similar 10%, ongoing. After year 2, you do the same, and continue that plan throughout the ten year period.
When you leave the annual growth to grow along with the originally invested amount, it grows to well over the $200.00 referred to earlier, when the growth was being withdrawn as it was earned: it will have grown to $259.37.
If it had earned 5%, the value after 10 years would have been $162.89.
After 20 years at 5%, $265.33 ... at 10%, $672.75.
After 30 years at 5%, $432.19 ... at 10%, $1,744.94.
After 40 years at 5%, $704.00 ... at 10%, $4,525.93.
After 50 years at 5%, $1,146.74 ... at 10%, $11,739.09.
To figure the value of $1.00, invested at 5% for 40 years on your regular calculator, enter "1 x 1.05" ... then press the "=" button 40 times.
So ... starting to invest during one's earning years and leaving the accumulated asset to continue to grow has some real advantages!
But ... don't forget ... you aren't getting to keep all of the apparent growth.
There's an agency that comes to you every year, with a question and a statement ...
... the question is, "How much did you earn this year?"
... and the statement is, "We want part of it!".
Yes ... the Income Tax people are partners in our personal business! They want a chunk of our income, each year.
Also, the original $100.00 would have bought much more in the market at the beginning of the project than would $100.00 at the end of 10 years ... or 20 years ... or 40 years (when we might have retired) ... or 50 years (when we'd been living on retirement income for a while ... but I hope that we have some extra assets available, in case we live for more than 10 years after retirement).
Inflation chews away part of the value of our assets each year.
So it is more advantageous to invest during one's career, when one plans to let the growth that the invested assets produce continue to produce more assets.
There's another advantage ... if you have an emergency, you have some assets on hand that you can draw on in order to deal with the issue without a great deal of fingernail-chewing. I advise making a real effort to replace the funds that were drawn to meet that emergency, later.
There's another advantage, as well.
When you want to buy a high-profile (or new) car, and need to borrow money, if you use the car as collateral to undergird the loan, the interest rate will be fairly high ... if you don't pay, repossessing and reselling your vehicle is a pain in the patoot for the lender.
If you use stock or mutual fund certificates as collateral ... and don't fulfill your obligations ... all they need do to liquidate is call their broker and deliver the stock certificates: miniscule hassle.
Much less potential hassle ... so substantially lower rate of interest charged.
(I also say that most retired people should carry a substantial portion of their assets in equities ... but that's a different story, that I've developed elsewhere in these forums, if you look ... or email me and I'll send the message).
Good wishes for increasingly shrewd management of your income ... and assets.
And not just teaching your kids, but helping them in their self-chosen project of learning the same game (which you, as the excellent salesperson that you are, have convinced them to buy into).
ole joyful
Hi, OJ! Always great to read your postings. Hope all is well with you during these tumultuous times.
While at the dentist's office today, I picked up the April 2009 issue of Money magazine (part of the CNN/Fortune corporate entity) and there was an excellent article in it entitled:
" "The 7 new rules of financial security" - In a world turned upside down, you must re-examine some basic assumptions. A good place to start: understanding the true nature of risk."
It is seldom that articles really discuss how to evaluate your tolerance for risk, yet that's an essential beginning step for anyone with an investment or retirement account. I thought this was a very good basic article. I found it on the website and it is linked below for those who wish to read it.
Unfortunately there was another very good hard-copy article that they did not put on the web, titled "Build with Bonds". It was a clearly illustrated explanation of what bonds are (a loan, basically) and the differing types which lead to such different dividend and interest returns. I strongly urge anyone who is a beginner investor to try to get a copy of this article, as it's a great basic informational piece.
Boy, I just wish all these articles and web stuff had been available when I was in my twenties - I think we would have made some different choices, LOL. We did okay, but 90% of that was sheer dumb luck.
Here is a link that might be useful: Money magazine: 7 new financial rules
In the earlier message, I referred to the way to calculate what growth $1.00 invested would produce after, say 40 years, etc. at 5%: enter "1.05 x 1" into your regular calculator, then press "=" 40 times.
If you'd like to know what the result would be should you choose to invest $1.00 annually, that's simple - press "M+" after each calculation, i.e. "1.05 x 1 =, M+, = M+, = M+ ...", etc. for the number of years that interests you.
A caution, however.
The apparent rate isn't what you can keep: the Income Tax people want part of each year's income, so you'de better deduct your tax rate from what it looks as though you earned.
Also, if you invest where the number of dollars are guaranteed not to shrink ... they won't grow, either ... so you need to deduct the rate of inflation from the amount of your annual earnings on non-growth-of-principal assets, as well.
If your apparent rate is 8% and your income tax rate of that kind of income is 25%, that means that your after-tax earning on this matter is 6.0.
If the current rate of inflation is 2%, that takes your apparent rate of return from the after-tax level of 6.0% down to 4.0%.
That's the real rate of gain that you can keep, after the erosion of annual income by income tax, and of the value of the underlying asset by the rate of inflation.
That's called your real rate of return. The kind that doesn't slip like sand through your fingers.
That's the rate that you should use when calculating what your anticipated results of investing would likely be.
ole joyful
Joyful, I enjoy your posts too, though I must confess, my eyes are pretty well-glazed over after reading the ones above, lol!
My biggest "investment" is my house. You've heard some of my story already. I bought in 2006 when the market was high. Three years later,I couldn't sell it for what I paid for it. Values in my neighborhood have dropped about 15% since '06.
I am making improvements & planning other upgrades which hopefully will increase my value over time. Of course, hopefully the market will bounce back, but I don't think it will ever be what it was. Prices here were very inflated. I moved here from a less expensive state & really had sticker shock when I started looking at houses!
Little did I know at the time that the real estate bubble was not only about to burst, but it would burst & sink into oblivion!! Oh how I wish I'd waited to buy, but my crystal ball was just really dusty at the time!
I put 50% down & have a 15 yr. loan at a 5.3625% interest rate. I hope to pay it off a bit sooner...maybe in 12 or 13 yrs.
Given these facts, Joyful Guy, do you have any further advice?
"Boy, I just wish all these articles and web stuff had been available when I was in my twenties - I think we would have made some different choices, LOL. We did okay, but 90% of that was sheer dumb luck."
If you still managed to make money (in spite of not being entirely sure of what you were doing), than it appears that sheer dumb luck was better than no luck at all......
"Luck" is very often another word for "opportunity". Sometimes you are able to take advantage of it, and sometimes you aren't.
It wasn't hard to make money - we're in our late 50's, double-income no kids Boomers, and own a paid-for home, two cars and little debt. But we've made very specific choices in life, some of which paid off (DH's defined benefit pension and retiree health benefits) and some of which didn't. Our overhead is still high - I cringed the last time I totaled up what we spend monthly on various insurance policies - but as I've often said, I was taught to view insurance as risk mitigation, so it's a necessity in our overall estate planning.
We've done a lot better on our investments since I really started paying attention to investing and made an effort to learn about it. But when I look back, we left the portfolio unattended until almost too late in life.
Fortunately, I picked up the interest in learning about investing before the dot-com bust. So when the bust happened, I didn't change a thing about the portfolio, because I'd learned that panic moves are what kill your ROI. Sure enough, the portfolio got back to even in 18 months and then took off from there. That taught me the value of dollar-cost averaging, too.
stinkygdnr, I don't know what OJ would say about your home, but our home was underwater for almost 10 years. It was pretty painful, but we consoled ourselves that heck, we had to live somewhere no matter what. In the end values went higher, although of course they've dropped again this past year. But in the long run, a home usually gives you some appreciation. Plus you get a lot of incalculable enjoyment from living in a place you can remodel and change to your heart's content. We liked our home, didn't love it, until we finished all the landscaping. Then we fell in love with it, finding it a real joy to just sit in the garden in a recliner, reading a book and drinking homemade lemonade. Like I said on a different discussion forum, very often it's the simplest pleasures in life that are the best!

I'm finding it very difficult to find anything about creating maintanable, navigatable and verbose tree structures in PHP. I wanted to open it up to the SO community and see who's done what.
The way I can see creating this sort of structure is to have an object for every node, with a reference to the parent or child nodes. I've yet to put anything in code.

Is the Boston Tea Party Over?
For all the populist rhetoric that surrounds protectionism, Frank makes a strong case that its most ardent supporters in American history have been domestic entrepreneurs who often have been among the worst exploiters of workers. On the other hand, she shows that a part of the free-trade movement has consisted of progressive trustbusters who opposed protection for large-scale domestic monopolies. Her point is to show that there have always been big business interests on both sides of the debate; a corporation's position depends on whether it needs protected markets, cheap imports or access to export markets. In 1892 steel magnate Andrew Carnegie demonstrated vividly how protectionism doesn't necessarily translate into benefits for workers. That year, he lowered wages at his big Pennsylvania steel plant in the wake of the raising of steel tariffs. When workers balked, Carnegie's manager shut down the plant and hired 300 Pinkerton detectives to bust up the workers' union.
The twentieth-century heyday of the Buy American movement was the early years of the Great Depression. With William Randolph Hearst Jr. blaring Buy American stories across the front pages of his twenty-seven newspapers, the movement took off, culminating in 1933 in Herbert Hoover's signing of a Buy American Act (requiring the federal government to buy only American-made products) on his last day in office. The main backers: companies with large domestic markets. The predominantly white American Federation of Labor (AFL) supported the act too. Much of the campaign was laced with racism aimed at Chinese, Japanese and other immigrant workers. (Hearst himself was explicitly anti-immigrant.)
A number of African-American newspapers and groups responded with a Don't Buy Where You Can't Work campaign that targeted the blatant discrimination in many US firms that were then catering to the US market. Nor did the trade union movement respond with one voice. A number of progressive union leaders split from the AFL to create the Congress of Industrial Organizations, which openly reached out to immigrant labor. (In February 1933, The Nation published an article critical of the Buy American movement. Yet, in an interesting twist four years later, the magazine joined Chinese-American organizations in successfully pressing for a boycott of Japanese-made goods to protest Japanese atrocities in China.)
Franklin Roosevelt entered the presidency in 1933 and reset government priorities toward working people through jobs programs and federal protections for workers. Roosevelt was also in favor of freer trade, however, and he initiated a series of tariff-reducing trade agreements. Again, the big backers were corporations. This time it was International Harvester, Zenith and United Fruit, which wanted foreign markets and protection for their foreign investments.
Frank guides us through free trade's reign in the early post-World War II decades. AFL-CIO president George Meany discouraged a Des Moines union's Buy American campaign by stressing that US workers were dependent on overseas markets and that Buy American would force other countries into the embrace of the Soviet Union and its "satellites." As is well known, at this time the AFL-CIO joined actively in cold war foreign policy to fight communism, in part by fostering pro-US unions overseas.
Then in the seventies the tide began to turn, as American companies shifted increasing amounts of investment overseas, causing a hemorrhage of good US manufacturing jobs, especially in the steel, auto and apparel industries. Frank offers detailed insights into the Buy American campaigns led by the apparel and auto unions in the seventies and eighties, campaigns that again, at times, took on racist overtones. She insightfully criticizes these initiatives for wrongly viewing imports as the enemy rather than the corporate policies of relocating production overseas (and exporting goods back to the United States). Once again, major enterprises--Wal-Mart, New Balance, Milliken & Co. and others--chimed in with Buy American campaigns of their own.

Recent Lake Isabella Reviews
Perfect location!
Our son was getting married nearby in the Blanchard area, the location was perfect for running back and forth instead of having to go all the way into Mount Pleasant. Our son and his best man stayed the night with us the night before the wedding and all the girls stayed at his house. The morning of the wedding they managed to get in a bit of fishing off the dock...just the right thing to calm the jitters!! Upon our arrival back home we discovered one of our daughter's had left her bridesmaid dress there! The owners were very helpful in letting our son pick it up upon his return from his honeymoon. We would love to go back sometime and fully enjoy the lake!
