The Shed Finally Came
They brought the shed and set it up just before the rains came this morning. I took this photo from the side of the greenhouse.
Close up:
I am going to have a ball with this, but not until after Thanksgiving.
Hi Woodyoak,
Yes, it will stay on this site. I will wait for it to silver a little bit (early Spring) and I will be painting it mossy green. I'm not sure about the trim yet.
There will be an extension of the stepping stone pathway to the shed, and I will plant roses on the high side (preferable with very sturdy thorns since that is the side with a window. The new rose garden is toward the greenhouse and to the left of the front of the shed, so that will just be an extension of it. I will probably plant roses along the back too. I have clematis, peonies, foxgloves and lavender along and in with the roses, and I will sow alyssum in spring after danger of frost is past.
Along the shady side, I may plant azaleas and hostas.
I am currently planning shelves, pegboard, and a planting table. As always, I am having a delightful time.
I love the doors! Mossy green will look great in the garden, especially as a backdrop to all your beautiful roses.
My mom put her shed behind the veggie garden, painted it barn red with white trim and it is adorable...especially when the sunflowers start blooming :)
Thanks all for the comments. Lets see, all of you rose growers, I am thinking about planting Mrs R B Cant on the side. Does she have thorns?
Lavender-lass, I think the shed is a great excuse to plant some more roses. I use that mossy green color all over the garden for birdhouse posts, pillars, etc...
Schoolhouse, the shed seems to be built very solidy...the base supports are doubled 3X6 posts.
Thyme2dig, I will be happy to post inside pics when I get it set up. I am like a kid at Christmas with this shed.
What a wonderful shed you have!!! I have an old 2 seat outhouse that I use for storage (solid floor-no holes). After all of the suggestions for your shed I'm excited about redoing my outhouse this spring. Great ideas with shelves and pegboards! I've been thinking about painting it purple or turquoise because the winters are so long here and a splash of color would be great to look at. Not sure how the colors will look with flowers? Again congrats to your new shed!!! Valree
That's just lovely! Your rose has thorns. Is that a big problem for you? I think it also becomes a very large rose.
My thornless is Vietchenblau which only blooms in spring and a mystery pink which grows like a weed, has thick, glossy leaves and pumps out the blooms!
Thank you so much for the info. No, I was hoping it had thorns since it is on the side with the windows. The kids gave me some very nice gauntlet gloves for my b'day, and that means New Dawn will be a little easier to deal with now. If it is a floriferous beauty with frangrance, thorns won't put me off.
You will have so much fun with this shed! It's very charming...and great setting. Thanks for the peek of your garden, also, with the path, the mixture of materials . It all say "happiness" to me.
What a great looking garden shed. I love the doors. I would probably just let it age silver and then use a sealer to protect it. I love the look of weathered wood.
Whatever you do, it will be a great addition to your gardening.
Glad you got it.

Cookin with The Columns: Light but tasty
Here's another recipe for my Weight Watchers readers. It sounds really good to me, even though it's in one of my favorite cookbooks under the category of "Low Fat & Light".
Again, as I have said before, I think we Southerners need to begin to realize that a recipe that is low fat and light is not necessarily unappetizing or tasteless. We need to learn to leave out much of the fat and calories of some of our recipes and enjoy the flavors without the extra fat.

RATINGS: 1396 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.72 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 207 ABV: 6.9%
When reading the name "Stone Cali-Belgique IPA", "Cali" hints that it is a California style IPA, and this brew has an undeniable Belgian influence, indicated by the word "Belgique" (which is how Belgium's French-speaking population says the word "Belgian"; the Dutch speaking Belgians say "Belgie"). We carefully selected a Belgian yeast strain that illuminates a fascinating new aspect of the beer that is otherwise quite simply Stone IPA.
The result is both completely new and different, while still being recognizable as a Stone Brew – and Stone IPA in particular. Think of it as an otherwise identical twin to Stone IPA that was raised in a Belgian culture. Literally.

Got dad moved today
Hi everyone, Well, I spent the whole week looking and working on getting dad into the skilled nursing home. The place is not near as pretty as the one he was in but they are fully staffed with the proper nurses and a doctor on hand everyday. Poor dad I feel so bad for him.
I knew when I went to get him he'd want to go home that is why I asked them to pick him up. I packed his bags and got everything to take over to the new place while we were waiting and dad said ..Now Barbara let me tell you I want to go home not anywhere else. I told him dad I knew you'd want to go home but you can't right now. You need care that I or yourself can do right now. I told him he's have to be able to use the phone to check his pacemaker. This quitted him down and I didn't here anymore of going home. He knows he can't use a phone hasn't been able to for some years now.
I stayed and put his thing's up in the new place while he ate dinner and then sat with him and two of the other men at his table. Dad was really confused and his balance was off, he kept falling forward not falling down but uneasy on his feet. I know that moving one with dementia isn't helpful but in his case I didn't have a choice.
When I was walking him down to his room after dinner he mentioned he was missing his friends at the other place. I know he'll really miss one of the ladies there, they talked a lot and spent quite a bit of time together.
The main thing is it's clean and fully staffed. He'll get the care he needs and perhaps some quiet for you. You've found an arguement he doesn't disagree with, he can't use a phone.
Why does he fall forward? Ever had his medications reviewed for side effects?
Does he have a room by himself where you might be able to add some of his pesonal items to make him more cofortable with it? If not, is it large enough to do something?
Hope this works for him. It's just so hard to grow old and lose all you thought would be there forever. I think the biggest issue is "HOME". Something they worked for and cherish and now it's gone. How do you fill that void? It's so hard to see this happen to our parents.
I'm a caregiver for my husband. Don't like it one bit. It has made me make some decisions. I am NOT leaving my home. I'll get a 12 gauge and ain't no way I'll leave. Of course if I shot it, it'd kick me all the way to the back of the 6 acres!!! That would be a sight. Oh well, something new to do. :O)
Growing up and hurting so much when a pet died, momma said it was hard for her too. She said when your child gets hurt on the outside you can put a bandaid on it. When they cry on the inside, you can't take that pain away. Now, I guess it's reversed.
Take care
Lynn, your statement says it all. You can't always stop the pain on the inside and to him he's lost his comfortable life he cherished so much.
It hurts me too to see him away from his home. When I have to go over to the homes to check on them it is so lonely and so empty with everyone gone. It's all I can do right now not to cry but I have a lot of work to clear them out. My grandparents kept paper work dating back to 1900. Some of the stuff is cool, some I'm holding dear to my heart, like post cards to my great grandmother from her kids. My dad told me about her and how loving she was. I would have loved to have know her.
Growing up we look at things in a totally different perspective. Things my mom would say were beyond what I really wanted to think about. I was young and just wanted the fun part, no tears. She's such a smart lady. She would tell me that in life sometimes we understand things right then, some things take a while, but then some things we'll never fully understand as only God is all knowing.
You have a lot of memories to go through in boxes, hanging on the walls and in drawers. It will not be easy but you are finding things that touch your life.
Going through "things" has made it possible for you to get to know someone you never met. Make that memory book of her picture and what information you can gather including the cards. Take a trip back in time. Talk to your dad about her and show him what you are doing. I'm sure he'll come up with some good stories. I found out my dad was onery. Not in a bad way but doing things he shouldn't have. Such as the time one halloween when the guys decided to knock over outhouses. He thought it would be funny to do his families too. BIG problem!!! His mother was inside when they did it. I love him dearly and miss him so much. A very special man.
There will be some tears but try to look at it as an opportunity for you to learn so much. There will be smiles too. It's a gift of your heritage.
Take care.
I am very proud of you Barb, even though this is one of those incidents that cuts through like a knife, YOU DID THE RIGHT THING!
Having the doctor there is such a good thing and the staff will know how to handle his "complaints" of chest pains.
I too am hanging on to a few things from the past, but not all because there is so much! I am picking and choosing and getting rid of the rest.
I think you did the right thing, Barb. I know this whole situation has been so stressful for you, but it sounds like the skilled nursing facility will be better able to monitor your dad's medical condition and better able to deal with his progressing dementia. As the others have said, give it time and he'll eventually adjust to his new situation and make some friends. He'll always want to go home; I think that's normal for most elders placed in a long term care facility. But he'll be OK. Take care of yourself.
And, window dressing isn't necessarily important. My mom's first AL was very nicely appointed. It was upscale in its decor, etc. The one she's at now is a little older and not as fresh in its decor. But the care level is far superior. So looks are definitely not everything.
I don't know what I would have done without all of you. It is because I'm able to reach out to others who have been there that I'm able to do better for my dad.
I went to see dad today and took him some of his army blankets cause he's so cold natured now. We had a good little talk and he was doing better today. He is feeling safer and better cared for in the new home. This is worth everything to me and to him for sure. Everyone I've come across is nice. Dad realizes he's in the home for good and he understands but as you say he will always want to be at home.
He has a hernia in his stomach so there going to have it looked at. He's had problems for so time with it and it's gotten worse.
It sure was hard to know if some of the thing's he told me about the other place was really going on or if he was trying to get me to just get him out of there and take him home or if his mind was not clear but now I'm taking some of the thing's he told me was real. Might not all be real but some thing's he's telling over and the story hasn't changed. He's asked me if I could do something about the place. Have someone look into how it's ran. He tells of how the workers yell at the residents, ignore them when they ask for something. Now I know they can't hop to everyone's needs right then and there but he said they would just smile at them and walk on by. He said they don't let them eat in peace and are hurried up.
I know he's concerned about the ones left behind and if you all think I should have the AL looked into I will.
My son has worked in nursing homes so he knows who to report to about abuse.
You know I think dad would love to see something put together of his beloved grandmother and I can show him how I'm keeping her memory alive through us.
My dad and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for the help.
Wow, what a change! You must feel a great sense of relief. I'm so glad that this move seems to be working out for you and for your dad. Of course, there may be future concerns, but knowing he's in a good place will give you the strength to handle them. I'm sure your dad would appreciate anything you put together to remind him of his grandmother. It will be a source of comfort to him.
Now you can start daydreaming about what you want to plant in the Spring. Don't overdo working on clearing out the houses. Take care of yourself.

Latest NGC 2207 and IC Stories
New research on the Antennae Galaxies using the Advanced Camera for Surveys onboard the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows that this benchmark pair of interacting galaxies is in fact much closer than previously thought - 45 million light-years instead of 65 million light-years.
A pair of interacting galaxies might be experiencing the galactic equivalent of a mid-life crisis. For some reason, the pair, called Arp 82 (see photo), didn't make their stars early on as is typical of most galaxies. Instead, they got a second wind later in life – about 2 billion years ago – and started pumping out waves of new stars as if they were young again.
A pair of dancing galaxies appears dressed for a cosmic masquerade in a new image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. The image shows what looks like two icy blue eyes staring through an elaborate, swirling red mask.

losing time
My clock has slowed down on my laptop and even though
I correct it, the problem remains.
Do I need a new battery? Is it difficult for a dummy to
replace? Where shall I buy one?
Is it possible for the battery to run down entirely and I
lose the information stored on my laptop?
Thanks so much for past and future help.
What is the make and model of the Laptop? Laptops can be difficult to dissemble and get at the motherboard to replace the BIOS Battery.
"A dead or dying CMOS (BIOS) battery may cause your computer to take a long time to boot up. This is because your computer has to actually recreate the BIOS settings from scratch every time you reboot. Figuring out the number and location of hard drives, the available amount of memory and other information necessary for booting may cause your computer to delay significantly. This can also cause the computer to run at the wrong speed, since the BIOS settings aren't retained.
The clock on the computer loses time indicates a dying BIOS Battery.
A computer with a bad CMOS (BIOS) battery may refuse to boot entirely."
Replace it as soon as possible.
If you have a repair person you use, I would take it in. I know that's a pain to do but it's my best suggestion. Opening those laptops can be difficult. Everything is so small. I was going to get the model # and make and just Google that with the added "Change BIOS Battery and see if any good instructions came up...
You are not likely to get replacement instructions with the battery. That's because the battery is probably used in many computers, and is not exclusive to yours. You should find the manual for your computer (should be available at the Gateway site) as it's likely to show how to do this.
I have the support document. What I don't understand is
it says: 'before you start using a new battery, you should
recharge it fully for at least 12 hours". I need to know
where do I get a recharger? The gateway I have is
apparently also an Acer 532H. Can you direct me as to where I can find the 'recharger?
Or...do I just use the charger that came with the laptop.
There are 2 batteries associated with a Laptop. This topic concerned a very small battery that looks like a watch battery the size of a quarter. That's what this topic was addressing. We were not talking about a regular Laptop battery like you are now.
As far as your recent question though. Yes you can use the charger that came with the Laptop for the new Laptop battery.
Hello........nowhere on the internet after HOURS AND HOURS
of searching, can I find the product#of the CMOS battery
needed. The Gateway people won't help unless I pay a horendous fee just to get that number. Why do they make things so hard? It's gateway nav50...made by acer.
The only thing I can think of is for tech to come to my home (I'm handcapped), open it up, get the battery out
and then shop around for one. FRUSTRATION HAS SET IN.
Am I missing something that's obvious, but I just don't see it?

The economics of the moment is that fiscal responsibility really means less, not more deficit reduction right now. That's easy for me to say, I'm sure. But it's the truth. Just look at the jobs report.
This week saw disaster averted when, at the last possible moment, Congress voted to reopen the government and extend the debt ceiling. Of course, we actually only avoided extreme disaster -- allowing us to return to the ordinary, run-of-the-mill disaster that is the current sequester-hobbled budget. It's like living in a house that's falling apart and celebrating because you convinced the repairman not to burn it down. But even avoided catastrophes can be pricey: since 2010, these politically-manufactured crises have cost us 3 percent of GDP, 900,000 jobs and $700 billion in lost economic activity -- not including the $24 billion this latest circus cost. And now we get to see if Congress, so eager to pat itself on the back for not driving the world economy over the cliff, can at long last get its act together -- or if we'll have to go through the exasperating brink-of-disaster routine all over again in three months.
That is not governing and it certainly does nothing to sell liberals or independents on conservative values. If anything, it pushes even moderate conservatives away from the movement because of its leadership.
For young people in South Los Angeles, the only "miracle" in California's budget will be if they get a fair day in court.
There's still no guarantee that the GOP won't use the same congressional hostage-taking antic again on the Affordable Care Act and demand the draconian budget cuts in January or February as its price for keeping the government open or raising the debt ceiling.
With the possibility of the government defaulting on its debt looming, it's worth critically examining some of the more popular far-right talking points.
Let's not forget that even if the debt ceiling debate does eventually end positively, the 2011 fiasco resulted in a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating, and given how crazy Washington is right now we may be better off protecting our present than betting on our future.
The funny thing is that had the Republicans simply let Obamacare play out in its own way, instead of trying to defund, delay, and sabotage it, they may actually have been able to score political points on its back in the future.
This conservative, austere budget has been rejected for months. Their goal is not really about defunding ObamaCare. Their goal was to force their extreme agenda onto the American people.
If you want to understand how we got to the point of a government shutdown, ask any Republican exactly what they would cut from the budget, and ask them to give actual dollar amounts of how much money that would "save."
How can federal agencies improve employee satisfaction and commitment? Are there any secrets to success? These questions should be top of mind for ag...
The Republican-controlled House of Representatives voted yesterday to cut $40 billion from food stamps. In doing so, they decided to rewrite Marie Antoinette. "Let them eat nothing."
Donald F. Kettl is the dean of the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland, a nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, an...

The GOP's sudden discovery that there is a great need for more funding for that care is commendable. What's not is that it would try to sell the public on the notion that increasing that care makes it unnecessary to pass gun legislation.
It is imperative, therefore, for the president to put an end to this, and the only way to really do that is by calling the opposition's bluff. There are several reasons why a government shutdown would actually work in Obama's favor.

has anyone put down oiled wood floors?
i fell in love with floors by a company called DuChateau. However, they are 11-14/sf.
What I like about them in the limewashed/pickled look. I got lucky and found another brand that carries a similar looking floor for only 4/sf. We need 200sf, so I'm super excited!
These are oiled rather than polyurethane. Any guidance on oiled floors? they look very "raw" - beautiful but unprotected
If you don't have kids, don't do food outside the kitchen, don't put the floor in the kitchen, don't have pets, and don't wear shoes, then you might be a suitable candidate for an oil finish. If you are a real person with a busy life that includes any of the above, then stay away.
$4 a square has to be Chinese. You get what you pay for.
at the local floor store they are 5/sf, but i found them on sale online for 4/sf. i am shocked by the price tag too because they are a nice thick beautiful floor. they look very high quality. in fact, next to DuChateau's oiled floor samples, you can't tell the difference. DuChateau is 11-14/sf. I actually like the color of the ones I found more.
they are from a company called global direct flooring. something about no middle man. here's a quote from their website:
âÂÂGlobal Direct Flooringâ is set up to serve members on a direct basis, supplying
the highest quality products, at the lowest possible cost. GDF is the only vendor set up to serve CCA members on an exclusive basis- we do not sell or service any competitive retailers, buying groups, etc. This is a unique partnership and expands on the mission and success of CCA-Global Direct."
i don't know what CCA means. my builder is going to check the floors out before giving them a go if i do decide that i want them.
in the meantime, i have to decide if i can live with oiled. i am using either blue slate or a porcelain tile in the kitchen. we have no pets, but we do have kids - 4 of them, and taking shoes off before entering will NEVER fly in our house.
does anyone else have experience/lived with oiled floors? they are so beautiful! but i don't want to make a huge mistake. they look rustic already, so i'm figuring wear and tear will just add to the patina??
Bumping this for more opinions on oiled wood. Sounds like it is not very durable? We do have kids and pets, but I want a floor that can be lived on. My in laws had a polyurethane finish on their wood floor, and MIL got so upset whenever it got a little scratch. I don't expect a wood floor to look perfect forever, nor do I want it to.
Could a new oiled wood floor be a good alternate to a reclaimed wood? Give the same worn look at a lower cost?
All of my floors are wood, and all but the bath and bedroom are oiled. The living room has a single coat of poly on it as well, but everything absorbed into the VERY dry wood (it's reclaimed garage sheathing) so it's not like the poly finish most people are thinking of. When we brushed it on, it absorbed into the wood within seconds.
We don't have kids. We do have a dog who goes out and brings in water and mud. She's 80lb, so we're not talking a small dog. We go in and out with shoes on.
I love my floors. I do have to reoil them again, it's been about a year for the livingroom and a little less for the others. Mind you, the others are original subfloors (60 or so years old) and the living room is VERY dry, so I don't know how often it would really need to be done on new wood.
This is the dining room floor, as I was oiling it
and the living room floor all finished last year
Very nice! I love how dark the living room floor is.
"I'm sure I looked at prefinished oiled flooring. It was great looking and natural but did not hold up to my testing. I would not buy today's floors without an assembled sample I could experiment on."
Would you feel better about a reclaimed wood that was oiled? What is it about new oiled wood products that you don't like?
It was a good looking floor which looked like reclaimed wood. Probably engineered, I don't recall.
"What is it about new oiled wood products that you don't like?"
I don't like the prefinished or engineered floors. It's a durability issue.
Yes, I would definitely consider an oil finish on real solid, site finished flooring. I believe I read some good reviews on it and you can just touch up scratches as they come. Would have to do testing though. Another concern would be whether dust would adhere to it more, like some furniture polishes.
I came across this product that perked my interest years ago when searching for finishes. You might check out reviews.

Anyone else?
I too love the look of pale, pickled oak or pine flooring. I've seen it in an oiled, solid version, and have seen it as engineered and other. Any input or suggestions as to how to find a good product of this sort out there?? Without using up my 401k of course?
Just came upon this thread, so thought I would add in my recent experience with Du Chateau oiled wood floors. In 2012 we had ours installed in every room of our house except for the bathrooms. We were a little worried about the "raw, unprotected" look of the wood (white oak) before making the leap, but we have absolutely loved them. They are far more durable than they look! We're careful to wipe up spills in the kitchen and dining room asap, but we aren't obsessive about it. We don't have little kids, but we do have a big, rambunctious labrador retriever puppy. :-) Our floors weathered her potty training just fine (we actually WERE obsessive about cleaning up puddles during that phase) and they are not scratched up at all from her bouncing all over the house. The only caution I would give about our particular kind of wood is that a few of the planks have edges that are a bit splintery. That's part of the distressed beauty of it, but it's worth noting to anyone not wanting that rough of a texture.
I am considering oil wood floors too. This thread has been helpful- especially lottiemoon's. What is the negative about these floors? I love the look of a real wood, natural looking floor. LottieMoon-about how much per sq ft were these floors? Has anyone run across other manufacturers in the $8 sq ft range with quality? Thanks in advance!
We have had oil finish floors (Portofino - European White Oak) for about 6 months. I think the negative is that they have to be re-oiled. This is a task done by hand, is very tedious, and is not something we are looking forward to doing on an annual basis. Also, while the floors look great, I don't feel like they are really sealed and protected. Dust from our remodel absorbed into the floors like crazy. The occasional water spot by the dishwasher/kitchen sink leaves marks. However, we do have a dog running around on them and scratches are not noticeable. Personally, I don't think the look of the floors is worth the maintenance, especially for the expensive price.
I found this brand of engineered pre-finished oiled hardwood...and I think I'm going to go with it. The company developed a durable, long-lasting, non-toxic oil finish called Nu-Oil. It addresses all of the issues above and they're gorgeous! I hadn't heard of the Hallmark brand previously but after a lot of searching around, I've found very good feedback about these floors. I'm most likely going to purchase the Alta Vista line (white oak) in Laguna:
Here is a link that might be useful: Hallmark brochure - finished with Nu-Oil
I too want to install oiled floors in my new home. We're currently planning on using an engineered wood by Allwood. It's white oak, 5", smoke. It's beautiful. But I am a bit concerned now after reading a few of these comments as we have three kids and three smallish dogs. It's quite inexpensive though. ($5.50). Would love more feedback on oiled floors, especially engineered.

I installed St Moritz Du Chateau floors in 2012 in Napa house. I have a hard time finding the cleaner and pay a premium for it when I do. It smells nice but doesn't clean up any spots or stains at all. St Moritz has little white chunks in the design to look like old painted floors - well the little chunks pop out. Just this winter I started getting splits and cracks in a few of the boards - no idea why all of a sudden - nothing is different - these aren't even in the sun or by a heater vent or anything funky. I am doing a new house - this time with in-floor heat and I really think I am going to look elsewhere for flooring. I love the look of Du Chateau - I have a big dog and I see no scratch marks but I'd hate to have to replace boards every few years - or the whole floor. I kind of want a forever floor - like the old days - before we started throwing stuff out every 5 years - and thought stuff from China was garbage (oh, it still is ...) Maybe Coswick Hardwood from Canada?

Charles' Law is
T must be in Kelvin.
80.0 = 27
77= ???
Do you know what Kelvin is? Why do you persist in using degrees C when it must be changed to Kelvin. The formulas don't work with C. They work only with Kelvin.
i don't know how to.. thats why i asked could if u could just help me step with step with how to do A. that way if i could see what i'm missing i could do the others and know how to do other questions.
Use Charles Law to solve for the missing value of each of the following a) 80.0 mL, T1= 27 degrees C, T2=77 degrees C. V2 =?
b)V1= 125 L, V2=85.0L T2=127degrees C T1=?
c) T1=-33degrees C V2=54.0mL, T2=160.0 degrees C V1=?
80 mL....27 C. Kelvin = 27 + 273= 300 K.
V2.......77 C. Kelvin = 77 + 273= 350 K.
Cross multiply.
Solve for ??
V2 = 80*350/300 = 93.3 mL
Check my arithmetic.
Check my work.
i attempted to do b and c can you tell me if i did it right?
85.0 ....127 Kelvin 127+ 273= 358
125= 85
125*358/85= 526.5
for C i did
V1... -33 C Kelvin -33+273=240
54.0ml....160 C Kelvin 160+273=433
c is ok.
b would be ok but you made an error in adding 127 + 273. My calculator gives me 400 and not 358. I THINK you added in 85 which is V2 and not 127 for T2.

BRAZZAVILLE (Reuters) - Central African Republic's interim president appealed on Monday to Muslim Seleka rebels and 'anti-balaka' Christian militia to agree a ceasefire at the start of talks in the neighbouring Congo Republic.
The three-day forum in Brazzaville, mediated by Congolese President Denis Sassou Nguesso, aims to reach terms for a halt to hostilities and disarmament but will not address negotiations for a longer-term peace deal in the former French colony.
"This forum which opens today is a major step in the political dialogue and reconciliation between the sons and daughters of Central African Republic," Interim President Catherine Samba Panza said at the opening of the talks.
Samba Panza, whose government will steer the country to elections next year, said the forum would pave the way towards further difficult steps in securing peace, such as inter-community talks at a grassroots level.
The talks bring together some 169 delegates from the transitional government, civil society and armed groups.
Thousands have been killed and more than a million forced from their homes by sectarian violence which erupted after mostly Muslim Seleka fighters seized power in the majority Christian country in March 2013.
Months of lootings and killings by Seleka fighters - many of them mercenaries from neighbouring Chad and Sudan - prompted a backlash by the 'anti-balaka' militia that has driven the rebels and tens of thousands of Muslims northwards, effectively dividing the country along religious lines.
Clashes between the two sides and reprisals against both Christians and Muslims have continued despite the presence of 2,000 French peacekeepers and 6,000 African troops. The United Nations will deploy a peacekeeping mission in September.
Samba Panza took office after Seleka's leader Michel Djotodia was forced to resign as president in January under international pressure.
Djotodia, who was reappointed as Seleka leader earlier this month, is the target of U.S. sanctions and will not personally attend the talks.
Human Rights Watch appealed on Sunday for participants in the forum to reject any calls for amnesty for those responsible for serious human rights abuses.
"Mediators need to make clear that lasting peace cannot be achieved without justice and that no one is above the law," said Daniel Bekele, Africa director at Human Rights Watch.
In a sign of the volatility of the situation, several Seleka fighters awaiting disarmament took to the streets of central Bangui on Monday, firing into the air, after one of their number was stabbed by a militia member. Calm returned after French and African peacekeepers deployed to the area.

Red Light
Sassy, spunk, charm & seediness await at Red Light
Red Light
7700 Biscayne Blvd, Miami
Hours: 6pm-midnight Tuesday-Sunday. Bar open later.
Prices: Appetizers $7-$9, entrees $14-$20, sides $4, desserts $6-$10.
FYI: Valet parking in Motel Blu lot, $5. Full bar; $10 corkage.
Reservations encouraged on weekends. AX, DN, MC. VS.
Kris Wessel was a semifinalist for this year's regional James Beard Award, and he has my vote as one of Miami's most talented chefs. At his quirky Red Light, Wessel melds Old South, Creole, Caribbean and Miami seasonings and techniques into an exciting, evolving cuisine that's all his own. The lanky, soft-spoken chef-owner has a 15-year history of hits and runs. He delighted South Beach with the gourmet sandwich shop Paninoteca, launched a spot called Liaison on Española Way and wound up at the short-lived Mediterranean Elia in Bal Harbour. Then he disappeared for a good long while.
Besides the fact that Red Light is still here after two years, what makes the modest restaurant Wessel's best effort to date is that it is truly his own. The scrappy, orange and red diner is like a place you'd find in Key West or New Orleans, where Wessel got is chops. It's got spunk and charm, but only for those willing to overlook the seedier elements, including a sniffly, glassy-eyed valet parker. The prices certainly are in sync with the times, with the most expensive entree a tasty $20 New York strip steak served alongside a tangle of sweet long-cooked onions and a juicy grilled tomato.
Anyone who expects good service to go along with the fine cooking may find their patience sorely tried, but diners who bring bug spray, a sense of humor and a laid-back attitude might just put this quirky Little River spot in their little black books.
What Worked
- Sweet and spicy barbecue shrimp in a nearly black sauce of slow-simmered garlic, shallots, cayenne, red wine and tangy Worcestershire
- Smoky wahoo fish dip served with perky sheets of arugula-and-elegant-sesame-seed flatbread for dipping
- Right-on-the-money local catch, including a brilliant red snapper with leeks and lentils
- Fantastically fresh, wonderous tile-fish braised with lemon fennel and served as a stew with little neck clams and sugarsnap peas in a rich calabaza broth
- Thick and juicy organic burger with tons of onions and melted white Cheddar
- Thick-as-Texas-toast slabs of buttery bread enveloping shredded oxtail with sweet guava jam, chevre and gooey fontina
- Sometime over-dressed, but always well-composed salads
- Old fashioned Sazerac cocktails
- A dozen or so reasonably priced wines (mainly Spanish with a few California and French selections)
- Homey slabs of chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream sidecars
- Seasonal fruit tarts
What Didn't Work
- Gritty oyster pie
- Hours-long waits for food
- Glasses that remain unfilled & tables that remain uncleared

Dutch lap vs. Clapboard Siding
We're siding partly in vinyl shake and part in straight siding. I wanted clapboard, but they put in dutch lap. The contractor said he thinks it's much nicer, esp. with the shakes and almost everyone does it that way. What do you think? Considering having them re-do in clapboard but not sure it will make a big difference to everyone else and will cost $$ (it was husband's mistake). All the siding is in the same color.
It's hard to judge the appearance of something you can't see and I've never seen the vinyl siding version of dropped/novelty/dutch siding but I would imagine that beveled (clapboard) vinyl siding would be less interesting and distinctive especially with shakes.
Thanks. The beveled siding is Dutchlap.
Here is a link that might be useful: Dutchlap siding
"The beveled siding is Dutchlap"
Well, that's certainly confusing.
Real wood clapboard is called "beveled" siding because it is taper-sawn to be wedge-shaped (like shingles) and that term distinguishes it from "lap" (or drop) siding which sits flat against the sheathing and only overlaps because it has a some kind of continuous notch to allow an overlap. There are seemingly unlimited variations for the design of the lap grooves.
"Dutch" lap siding is lap siding with a continuous curved scoop below the lap notch and is quite different from beveled or clapboard siding. Dutch lap siding was called "novelty" lap siding until it became so popular.
Manufacturers of imitative siding will use whatever name they think will sell more of their product and, of course, none of their products actually has the same profile as what they attempt to imitate. But it is still best to stick with the well established terms in a discussion.
Unless a house is very formal and of a Colonial, Colonial Revival, Greek Revival, etc. style I like the drop siding better but I haven't seen the house so I should not be advising you. My old boss often warned to never "design in a vacuum" and this would be "designing blind".
Here is a link that might be useful: real novelty lap siding
Perhaps because real wooden "german siding" (as it's called here) was very prevalent in the old days, the vinyl version is also used quite a bit. I have not only seen it on many houses, but installed a little some years back on a remodeling job.
I'd say it accounts for 50% of vinyl in my area.
It's no better or worse than double 5 or whichever. It looks a bit different is all; the quality of the job is more dependent on the installer than the material.

My daughter must take a drug test and i found out she took some adderal. how long will that stay in her system??

Hi gorgantic, Is your daughter prescribed adderall? If she is, she has nothing to worry about. If she does not have a recent script she may well fail as most drugs will vary for person to person., honestly if she fails the test she might stop taking it and you should consider yourselkf lucky to still have her around. I firmly believe in learning by your mistakes Fall Queen
28 Nov 2011
If she is a regular user of it adderall can remain in ones urine for up to 5 days
I'm concluding that it is not prescribed or you would not be worried. If you want her to pass give her orange juice or anything with citric acid and vitamin c in it because both of these help excrete the metabolites up to 3x faster than normal with a normal panel urine test
I pass one just about every month using this method I have not failed yet
11 Sep 2013
The half life of Amphetamine is about 11 hours. If your daughter took a single dose and you have her drink a LOT of water, she can pee clean in 48 hours, most likely.
If its chronic, you might need 5 or 6 days.
Amphetamine is water soluble, so just have her drink at least a few gallons of water a day to flush the stuff out.

Developers -- especially game developers -- prototype ideas and work on them for months all the time. Ultimately, they often result in nothing. Things don't work. Technology isn't there yet. The userbase shows no interest. Or, probably most often, the developer just loses their passion for that project/prototype and moves on to something else. Notch could go through twenty of these before he finally lands on something that he feels passionate about for the long-haul.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to charged particle beam systems and more particularly to a detector for detecting back scattered and secondary particles in such a system.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Electron beam lithography and inspection systems, scanning electron microscopes and other particle optics systems usually use a magnetic objective "lens" to focus a charged particle beam upon a substrate. Magnetic deflection systems are often used to position (deflect) these beams on the substrate. A static magnetic lens focus field and time varying magnetic deflection field are often superimposed and located as near as possible to the substrate in order to minimize axial lens aberrations and deflection distortions.
The same particle optics systems often include annular shaped detectors that detect secondary particles and x-rays coming from the substrate area irradiated by the primary beam. In conjunction with a raster or vector scanned particle beam, these secondary particles are used to form images or to identify the composition of the substrate. In the case of electron beam lithography, inspection or ion beam milling tools, secondary or backscattered electron or ion detected images are also used for registering the beam position with respect to the substrate. To maximize these detection signals, it is important for the detector to subtend a large solid angle when viewed from the substrate. Thus the detector as well as the lens and deflection coils should be close to the substrate.
Thus the region between an objective lens/deflection system and substrate must include lens, deflection, and detector elements. It is particularly desirable that the lens, deflection and detection functions are superimposed to minimize the space that they occupy.
Annular shaped solid state detectors are known in particle beam systems. Sometimes it is necessary to separately record signals from different azimuthal angles to gain more information about the substrate geometry, so such annular detectors with several individual detectors (active areas) on a single detector substrate are also used. Typically such a detectors consist of planar diode structures on a thin substrate of high purity doped silicon. Each detector segment (active area) is a thin doped layer covered with an even thinner conductive coating. A bias voltage is applied to the opposing back surface, creating a depletion layer in the silicon. High energy particles penetrate into a depletion region, forming many electron hole pairs that, when extracted, are an amplified version of the incident current signal.
This invention is directed to mounting a detector within a magnetic lens and deflection field to minimize the distance between lens and substrate. The detectors thereby are accommodated along with low lens and deflection aberrations, leading to improved system performance.
In accordance with this invention, a segmented solid state detector assembly is located within the pole pieces of a composite objective lens/deflection assembly. Location of the detector within a magnetic lens and deflection field introduces special problems found by us, and also addressed herein. To avoid distortion of the static lens magnetic field, all detector and mounting materials are non-magnetic with a permeability very close to that of vacuum. If the deflection field is of the type to change rapidly in-order to position the beam at high bandwidth, then there are additional problems to be solved. Changing magnetic fields induce eddy currents in conductive materials, creating opposing magnetic fields that oppose the deflection field until they resistively decay. The magnitude of these eddy current "settlers" depends upon the volume and electrical resistivity of materials within the deflection field, and their proximity to the beam. Thus since the present detector is located within the deflection fields, the volume of conductive material is minimized, and the electrical resistivity is as high as possible consistent with appropriate electrical connection to the detector elements.
Electrical and mechanical contact to the active areas of the detector is achieved by segments of a conductive elastomer material that is soft and so does not damage the active area surface. The actual detector is sandwiched between these segments and a thin backing ring on the opposite side, that is also of relatively high resistivity material. Electrical connection to external circuitry, e.g., pre-amplifiers et al., is made through special high resistivity screws and a flexible printed circuit board assembly that minimize the volume and maximize the resistivity of all materials subject to the eddy currents. This mounting approach minimizes eddy current settlers in the system.
FIG. 1 shows in cross-section one embodiment of the present segmented solid state detector mounted within a magnetic lens and deflection system.
FIG. 2A shows in cross-section a detector mount in accordance with this invention.
FIG. 2B shows a top view of the structure of FIG. 2A; FIG. 2A is along line A--A of FIG. 2B.
FIG. 2C shows a bottom view of the structure of FIG. 2A.
FIG. 3A shows in a plan view detail of the segmented elastomer members;
FIG. 3B shows in a plan view the flexible PC board connection lead of FIG. 2A.
FIG. 1 illustrates in cross-section the present solid state detector assembly in a magnetic lens and deflection system. A thin, annular conventional solid state detector 1 with one or more active detection areas lies within the conical shaped ferrite lower pole pieces 2 of a particle beam objective magnetic lens. The detector assembly (the detector and its housing but the housing is not shown) is located just below saddle or toroidal magnetic deflection coils 3 which rapidly deflect the beams to various sites upon a substrate 4. The detector 1 active (lower) surface is shielded from the primary beam 5 (provided from a source, not shown) by a conical shaped baffle 6, but an annular region of the detector faces the part 7 of the substrate 4 irradiated by the particle beam. The baffle 6 is described in further detail in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/733,673, entitled "Conical Baffle For Reducing Charging Drift In Particle Beam System", inventors Lee H. Veneklasen and Lydia J. Young, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,838,006, issued Nov. 17, 1998 incorporated herein by reference; however such a baffle is not necessary for use of the present invention. Also, the conical shaped pole pieces are disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/721,287, entitled "Concentric-Gap Magnetic Lens With Conical Pole Pieces", inventors Lee H. Veneklasen and William J. Devore now U.S. Pat. No. 5,729,022, issued Mar. 17, 1998, incorporated herein by reference. The underlying support, e.g. stage, for the substrate 4 is conventional and not shown. Several conductors 8 (shown schematically) lead outside the pole piece enclosure 2, electrically connecting the detector 1 to external video or other signal processing electronics (not shown). The present mounting does not require a conical pole piece; for instance, in FIG. 1 one could omit the baffle 6 and provide equal diameter upper and lower pole pieces and still use the present detector assembly.
FIG. 2A shows in a cross sectional view several aspects of the present detector assembly to minimize eddy current losses in the detector assembly; these eddy currents would otherwise undesirably reduce deflection bandwidth. Contact to the active areas on the lower surface of the detector 1 is via conductive elastomer members 10. Each elastomer member 10 is an arc shaped segment, e.g., cut from a single round or rectangular O-ring and inserted in a shallow groove on the similarly segmented conductive signal contact rings 11. The soft surface of elastomer members 10 makes adequate electrical contact to the active areas of detector 1 without damaging the active areas. The resistivity of the elastomer members 10 is low enough to conduct signals of milliamperes without significant voltage drop, but high enough to discourage eddy currents. The silicon detector 1 is of conventional configuration as described above, except it has four quadrants (active areas) as illustrated below.
The thin silicon detector 1 is sandwiched between the elastomer members 10 and a thin backing ring 12 that contacts the other (back) surface of the detector 1. Ring 12 is of e.g. titanium, pyrolitic graphite or an elastomer and makes the bias electrical contact with the aluminized layer on the back surface of detector 1, and also provides mechanical support to avoid cracking the brittle silicon detector 1 with the concentrated force of the active area contacts 10. An insulating base 13 provides a mount (housing) for the detector assembly. Several very small screws 14 and associated washers 15 (heads of screws 14 are shown in the bottom view of FIG. 2A) are machined of relatively high resistivity metal (such as titanium). Screws 14 and washers 15 (or equivalent fasteners) provide the mechanical force to hold together the detector assembly, and also make electrical connection to a flexible printed circuit board assembly 16 that carries the electrical connections (designated 8 on FIG. 1) externally.
FIGS. 2B and 2C respectively show a top and a bottom view of the structure of FIG. 2A; FIG. 2A is along line A--A of FIGS. 2B and 2C. All surfaces shown in FIG. 2C are of conductive or material or are conductive-coated.
FIGS. 3A and 3B show respectively the four "segmented" elastomer members 10 and associated flexible PC board 16 in more detail in a plan view. Flexible PC boards are well known in electronics, having thin copper traces 17 bonded between layers of thin polyimide film 18. In this case, exposed conductive vias make electrical contact with the screws 14 through thin washers 15 of FIG. 2A. The other end of the flexible PC contact assembly 16 terminates in a header 20 that in turn is connected electrically to the pre-amplifiers and other external electronics (not shown).
Along with conductive elastomer, high resistivity non-magnetic parts in this detector assembly are of metals such as silicon bronze, molybdenum, titanium etc. The insulating detector base 13 is of e.g. ceramic or a stiff plastic material such as polyimide. The materials used in the silicon detector 1 itself are sufficiently resistive so as not to be prone to eddy current effects.
This assembly is especially advantageous when such a detector is located within a high bandwidth magnetic deflection field. Minimum volume and high resistivity are two elements that lead to minimum eddy current losses and more accurate high speed deflection. Also in the illustrated embodiment all the detector assembly parts facing the substrate are conductive. Thus there is no possibility of these parts holding any charge which would interfere with the electron beam. Also, the detector assembly in the illustrated embodiment includes no soldered connections to minimize metal in the magnetic field.
This disclosure is illustrative and not limiting; further modifications will be apparent to one skilled in the art in light of this disclosure, and are intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims.

I have created the custom control which is just a panel that I will be using to render my DirectX code. However, I am unable to see the control in my toolbox for when I try to add it into the designer. I right clicked on my project then clicked on add new item. From there I clicked on custom control, renamed it to CustomPanel, and placed my code in it. I tried everything from restarting VS to deleting and creating a new custom control. Is there anything that I am missing? This is being done in Visual Studio 2005.

Right click the Toolbox, then
Is the control class public ? The default template creates an internal class.
Is there a public parameterless constructor ? The designer needs it.
Did you right click on the toolbox and click "Choose Items", and then browse to the built assembly that contains your custom control?
That's what I always have to do, and then my custom controls show up in the "General" section of the toolbox.
and check that you mustn't stay in the custom control's designer window.
