Date of Stay: September, 2013 - $50.00
There are so many reasons for there being numerous vacancies while other campgrounds are full but the # 1 reason would be the owners. They can't separate business from their personal lives. They set rules and regulations and they exempt themselves and campground employees. Billing is always an issue with them over charging and refusing to remove charges. They say they are always open to discuss problems then walk away, hang up on you or not answer door when you try. They think they can tell those using the campground what they can talk about, who they can talk to, who they can do things for or help, who they can hang out with, right down to what they can even think. This creates a dictatorship like atmosphere with people being afraid to breathe. They evict people, publish their names and warn people that they hope others learn from this. They think they can speak to campers rudely even cussing and swearing and yelling at them in front of others and even at your guests. There is such an undercurrent of fear and unrest that I could not feel comfortable or relax when I was there. The straw that broke the camel's back was on July 11, 2013, Consumers pulled all main electrical meters in the campground. Owners brought in generators and informed all (except a select few) they could not run air conditioners, making it so many could not use their campers due to health issues or high uncomfortable temps. On the 1st morning of generator power, one generator ran out of gas. Thus single phasing power to several campers doing extensive damage, and to this day they have never admitted responsibility. The outage lasted for a good part of 2 months of the summer. Sad to see what was a really lovely campground destroyed by the owners. You can be a good guy one moment and a bad guy the next depending on which way the owner's mood is swinging and that's a constant pendulum. The injustices I witnessed and was put through myself by the owners is unbelievable. It sickened me to see the owners bullying people. I even witnessed their child telling other children that if they didn't do as they said,they'd have them kicked out. I could go on and on, but will end now with hopes that this will save many others from going through the nightmare we were put through. We did our time, sorry to say. We camped at Genesee Otter Lake Campground in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: July, 2013 - $25.00
Terrible campground. Nothing was the same as what they advertised on the web site. Wi-Fi was turned off; the lakefront site was on a swamp/marsh; the activities were cancelled at the last minute because there were no 'volunteers' to do them (they rely on seasonals to organize their activities); and the site we booked (and paid for in advance) was not reserved for us. Phone calls not returned. Low voltage power through July/August (ran on generators). The list goes on. Beautiful property but terrible management. We camped at Genesee Otter Lake Campground in a Travel Trailer.
Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $25.00
Most are seasonal sites. Golf carts were everywhere. Some neighbors were nice but felt out of place there. They had really nice fireworks for the 4th. They seem family friendly if you are one of the seasonal people. Sites are really close together. Probably wouldn't stay there again but it served its purpose for us. We camped at Genesee Otter Lake Campground in a Travel Trailer.

Total: $5 million per fiscal year limit for all buildings
Silver rating: $1.5 million per fiscal year
Gold rating: $2.5 million per fiscal year
10% to 75% credit from property taxes owed on building for 3-5 years; varies by building type and building rating
The state of Maryland permits local governments (Md Code: Property Tax § 9-242) to offer property tax credits for high performance buildings if they choose to do so. Montgomery County has exercised this option by offering property tax credits on new or extensively modified multi-family residential and commercial buildings that meet certain high performance building standards. An "extensive modification" is defined as a structural modification that alters 50% or more of the building's square footage.
The tax credit generally uses the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED rating system as a metric for determining how "green"' a building is, although buildings that achieve comparable ratings under other green building standards are also eligible for the tax credit. Tax credits are available for buildings that achieve minimum ratings under the LEED New Construction (NC); Core and Shell (CS); and Existing Building (EB).
The amount (10-75%) and term (3-5 years) of the tax credit varies based on the type project and the rating it achieves. See the table below for details. The term "covered" refers to new or substantially reconstructed non-residential and multi-family residential buildings over 10,000 square feet, which are already required by county law to meet the basic LEED certification standard or its equivalent. Thus the minimum standard for property tax credits on buildings of this type is correspondingly higher.
Building Type | Certification Type | Exemption Amount | Term |
Covered | LEED-NC or LEED-CS Platinum | 75% | 5 years |
Covered | LEED-NC or LEED-CS Gold | 25% | 5 years |
Covered | LEED-EB Platinum | 50% | 3 years |
Covered | LEED-EB Gold | 10% | 3 years |
Not Covered | LEED-NC or LEED-CS Platinum | 75% | 5 years |
Not Covered | LEED-NC or LEED-CS Gold | 50% | 5 years |
Not Covered | LEED-NC or LEED-CS Silver | 25% | 5 years |
Not Covered | LEED-EB Platinum | 50% | 3 years |
Not Covered | LEED-EB Gold | 25% | 3 years |
Not Covered | LEED-EB Silver | 10% | 3 years |
Property taxpayers must apply for the tax credit within one year after a building is certified as a high performance building. There is a limit of $5 million per fiscal year (July 1 - June 30) on the total volume of tax credits granted, and limits of $1.5 million and $2.5 million for buildings rated LEED Silver and LEED Gold respectively. Credits in excess of these limits will be issued for the subsequent fiscal year or years.

We just spent 4 days in New Orleans with Gonzaga University Alum group working on three different houses - two were paint jobs, but the third involved doing siding and building a fence. Getting to meet the homeowners and see their positive reactions to the changes that we were helping to make made the entire effort extra special.

As you all probably know, famous Forerunner are identified (at least by us) by their symbols/insignias/whatever. For example the [url=http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090318051218/halo/images/5/55/Librarian.png]Librarian's[/url] and the [url=http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/207/d/b/didact_by_willjay-d41pmo1.jpg]Didact's.[/url]
So I took it upon myself to create my own Forerunner symbol. First I [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/717/photoon81212at803pm.jpg/] drew it[/url].
And then I [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/26/screenshot20120812at803.png/] made it[/url] in Minecraft using colored wool.
I thought it looked good, so I'm sharing it with you guys in hopes that you'd maybe make your own symbol, or just critique mine.
I pray I've posted this in the right forum and didn't violate any rules. I usually mess up with that kind of stuff. Thanks!
Edit: Sorry about the "rendered" thing. I just thought it sounded good.

Palm OS

The Palm devices were PDAs produced from 1996 to 2007 by Palm Computing. Although it was a pioneer in this field, poor management and growing competition from smartphones ultimately brought the Palm line down. It was succeeded by webOS. Almost all Palm OS games have been ported to iOS and Android devices, and since most games for Palm are no longer sold they're ridiculously hard to find.
If you're a collector who seriously wants to play PDA games, your best bet is the Tapwave Zodiac, a handheld game console that ran Palm OS and had a few exclusive titles of its own.

Valhalla Knights 2 Review
The second verse is the same as the first.
Last year, Xseed Games and K2 introduced Valhalla Knights, an RPG with an amnesiac hero wandering a strange land trying to regain his memory. The game was long on customization and action but very short on storytelling, making the entire adventure a hit or miss for some roleplaying game fans. A year has passed, and Xseed and Marvelous Entertainment have recently released Valhalla Knights 2, a sequel that attempts to recapture the fast-paced action of six-on-six battles. However, while the action is quick and hectic, the game still suffers from a shallow story that never feels like it goes anywhere, which drags down on the fun and the excitement.
Unrelated to the original story, Valhalla Knights 2 starts off with a story of the Goddess of Judgment, who descended from the skies and unleashed a flood of monsters on the world. Buildings were destroyed and cities were lost in her wake; the people in the land were powerless to stop her. In fact, many felt that the gods had completely forsaken them until the Witch of the Crystal appeared and took on the Goddess in battle. While she was completely overmatched, the Witch managed to injure the Goddess enough to banish her and her power before the world was destroyed. Time passes, and the player discovers that the worshippers of the Goddess are being hunted as heretics committing crimes against the world. Unfortunately, the judgment of these hunters is sometimes clouded by their vengeance, and they attack and burn the orphanage that you live in, threatening you and a fellow orphan. The only thing that saves you is a group of Latroci, government sanctioned adventurers. Deciding to become a Latroci yourself, you move to Weiselheim and train to become a hero with the goal of tracking down and eventually defeating the Goddess once and for all.
While it's nice that the game didn't go the hackneyed route of amnesia for the main character (like the original game did), it does suffer from the exact same problems from the first title, which is that the story progresses at a snail's pace. You'll head out on your first mission to become recognized as a Royal Latroci, which involves heading out and fulfilling a quest with a magical stone, one which appears to be connected to the story of the Witch of the Crystal. However, once you've joined the ranks of the Latroci and start taking missions from the town guild, everything slowly starts to grind to a halt -- you're tasked not with important missions to the kingdom but with menial tasks. These are worse than the standard fetch quests that you'll find scattered in every RPG because instead of slaying monsters, you'll be tasked with elements like finding paint or tracking down a lost letter in town. What's more, some missions are mindless extermination battles as you destroy a random number of beasts wherever you'd like (monsters that inevitably respawn if you leave the area and return, mind you). While there's something to be said for going through missions to gain experience, the plot of the game is frequently abandoned in favor of these stupid chores, which seriously hampers a lot of the enjoyment that you'll have with the game.
Fortunately, the character creation is where Valhalla Knights 2 truly stands out, just like the original game. Initially, players select from one of five races, each with their own job specialties. Much of this goes along the standard RPG lines, such as elves being better at magic, dwarves being better fighters, and traditional job classes, like being a fighter, wizard, or thief. Obviously, the job that you choose will dictate the abilities that you have, such as being skilled with magic, defusing traps or fighting with your bare hands. As time goes on, players have the opportunity to expand these skills by acquiring up to two additional job classes to strengthen your character. These can be either basic jobs, or more advanced jobs, like becoming a Samurai or an Enchanter. This provides a lot of flexibility in how you want to establish your character and leaves much of the decision making in your hands.
There is a caveat to this flexibility, which is that you are forced to micromanage every single ability for your character, because you won't gain them by simply leveling up. Mages and Priests initially start out with one spell, so you'll have to track down magical spell books to improve their knowledge or they'll become incredibly one-dimensional magic users. What's more, you'll have to constantly be on the search for higher level magic as you go on, because after a while, your spells become much less effective against enemies. Another twist to the entire skill situation is that some spells don't initially appear to be spells themselves when you find them, so you may accidentally give your fighter or monk a spell that they'll never be able to use, wasting the magic. For instance, appraisal or search looks like something that a thief would be innately qualified to use and learn, but because nothing in either the game or the instruction manual indicates that these two are spells instead of skills, you'll assign these to your characters and later discover your mistake when you wonder why your character can't use them at all. In fact, because the instruction manual leaves out details and the game won't always fill in these blanks, you'll stumble your way through gameplay and only discover what you need to do after a few hours of experimentation.

Leonard didnt accomplish that. He lost his title early in his reign and got it back and had the eye injury. He had the ability to do it but I cant give him credit for what he mightve done.
He did have some high profile wins. The Hearns win was about as good as it gets in quality. Leonard didnt give Hearns the rematch the way Duran gave him one until 8 years later.
We dont know what wouldve happened had Tommy gotten a crack at Leonard in `82 when it shouldve happened. Hearns may have had some adjustments in the rematch the way Leonard adjusted to Duran in New Orleans.
My point is the consistant domination even in his prime wasnt there from Ray Leonard. He had less than 40 fights in his entire career. I think Duran had that many 2 or 3 years in.
I see your point. 40 fights in a whole career is not that many, although Delahoya has about 40 himself doesn't he? Duran's lightweight competition was not that great, if it was defenses which matter Virgil Hill should be the greatest ever or Larry Holmes. Virgil had something like 25 title defenses on 4 title reigns. He didn't knock out everyone but he fought decent guys also, but not many greats, and the ones he fought (Hearns and Jones) he lost to.
Well I agree with you, Ray knew he slipped by Hearns when Tommy was a little green and the rematch might have been different. He tried to say he would give Tommy a rematch if Tommy admitted the fight was stopped at the right time, which Tommy said he could have continued.. But a fight with Hearns and Leonard in a rematch in 1982 could have been much better for Hearns, and I think Ray was burned out by the 2 Duran fights, Benitez and Hearns and other defenses. He had a bruising 2 and a half years. And they talked about him fighting Pryor, although Pryor did not get big until he beat Arguello in late 1982.
Maybe it is just me, but I rate greatness in how many greats you fought and beat. Fighting them does help a guys ranking and Duran fought them all, but beating them all is rare. Hearns or Duran or Hagler did not beat all 4 and Ray did, so he has to rank in my mind over all of them.. Leonard is 5-1-1 against Benitez,Hearns,Duran, Hagler, Hearns is 2-2-1 Hagler is 1-2 and Duran is 1-5. I cannot say a guy who lost to the best guys he ever fought is better than the guy who beat all those guys. Regardless of excuses or that Duran had 115 fights and fought for 35 years. Had Duran beaten Arguello that would have been a nice win, and also so he beat Arguello at lightweight and Cervantes and Pryor at 140.. He wouldn't need to beat Hearns,Benitez,Leonard,Hagler, but he didn;t beat those guys to beat the greats. Leonard did.

Toasted Couscous with Almonds and Raisins
- 1 1/2 cups couscous
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds
- 2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- Salt and pepper; to taste
- Pinch of ground cumin
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- 1 cup California raisins
Heat a large nonstick skillet over moderate heat. Add couscous and toast grains. Stirring or shaking pan frequently, until brown and fragrant. Transfer to a plate. Add almonds to the hot skillet and toast them, stirring frequently. Transfer them to another plate.
Bring stock to a boil with celery, salt, pepper, cumin and cayenne. Simmer about 3 minutes or until celery is slightly softened. Add couscous and raisins to saucepan and stir gently just to mix. Cover pan; remove from heat and allow to stand about 5 minutes or until couscous is tender. Add almonds to couscous and, with a fork, stir mixture lightly to fluff up the grains.
Notes: Toasting the couscous gives it a rich, nutty flavor. Stir frequently to make sure it browns evenly.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up that the Target x Neiman Marcus collection is now 70% off in stores only. As I'm writing this, it's only 50% off online at target.com ("only," ha!). I took the plunge and finally bought the sequin Tracy Reese top that I've had a crush on since the lookbook first came out. This top has a relaxed fit so the XS fit me well. I feel like the size small would look frumpy since it's a boxy cut with almost dolman-like short sleeves. And I paid a measly $12 because of a cashier error which I swear I just discovered now as I'm checking my receipt for the purpose of writing this post. (They took 70% off the 50% off price of $39.99 rather than 70% off the original $79.99 price. Oops.) If you buy anything on clearance, please note that you only have until January 5th to return. The buzz on twitter, Instagram, Facebook and comments is nearly unanimous - this collab was a flop. But hey, if you bought things you love, just enjoy! I can't wait to wear my Tracy Reese top and I adore the two sets of Tracy Reese dessert plates that I bought for half price online. Money well spent in my book.

The Target x Neiman Marcus Collection is 70 Percent Off in Stores
Ha! I just realized we took a picture of the same thing! Agreed, major flop!
Love that top - I had ordered the small online and it was too big + the boxy fit was super unflattering on me. But now that it's so cheap in stores, I may go back and try the XS as you suggested!
I bought the rag and bone shot glasses and pretty gold low balls. Super cheap and look at the bar. Also got the Tori Burch lunch bag for 5 bucks, would have never paid full price for this stuff though. 70% is perfect!! Lol
Target.com also seems to be offering free shipping on what's left of the NM collection online - probably in an effort to blast this stuff out.
At these prices, I may pick up a few more of the Carolina Herrera stationery sets to give as hostess gifts.
At these prices, I may pick up a few more of the Carolina Herrera stationery sets to give as hostess gifts.
As soon as you mentioned the 50% off on this collection I hightailed it to Target for the Tracy Reese top and bought the XS as well. Now that things are 70% I may buy the men's Rag and Bone grey sweater. I really like it for me! Not sure tho' but there are a couple of black ruffly blouse that may be worth the price now too! Thanks for the heads up!
I ended up ordering the Thom Browne women's tipped blazer for $38 online since the price went to 70% off this morning. I also picked up the Proenza Schouler sweatshirt for $9. I'm hopeful both of these will fit since I wasn't able to try them on first before ordering and since I likely won't receive them until after the January 5th deadline for returns (that's kind of ridiculous I think but oh well). I did try on a medium in the blazer at my store (they didn't have a small to try on) and it was a little big overall so I'm hopeful the small will be fitted but just right. I'm thinking about that sequin top you got too since that's such a great deal and you can never have too many sequins!
I ended up getting the Tracy Reese top, the Lela Rose top, the DVF jewelry box and 2 more dog bowls for spares.
I got the same top at 70% off too! I also picked up the TB thermos and lunch box. I got the PS sweatshirt and the DVF jewelry box at 50% off. I think the problem was the pieces were so overpriced for Target. But, at savings like these now, they're perfect!
I didn't buy anything in this collection at full-price. Just too expensive for what it was/quality. But I bought several x-mas gifts and some items for myself just before Christmas and now, at over 70% off, I've gone back for more. Many are pieces I'll have for a long time, and for Target, the quality is higher. I'm very happy. My husband even got me the bike -maybe that's crazy, but it was such a deal at almost 80% off. I bought a lot of Mossimo stuff and I think that these will be treasured longer. So for me, not a flop, but maybe for Target.

2. Addons↑top
2.1. Generic Addons for Druids
2.1.1. ElvUI
Here, at Icy Veins, we use ElvUI for all our characters. This addon is a complete replacement of the default User Interface. It comes with almost everything you need to perform properly: action bars, cooldown timers, proc display, etc.
We strongly recommend that you get this addon.
2.1.2. Boss Mods: Deadly Boss Mods or Bigwigs
Boss mods are addons that warn you about boss abilities and give you live advice on how to handle some mechanics. We strongly recommend you to get one such addon. At Icy Veins, we mostly use Deadly Boss Mods, the most popular boss mod. A good alternative is Big Wigs.
GTFO is a lightweight addon that notifies you when you are standing in harmful effects or when you are making other such mistakes. It is very useful, even if your boss mod is already alerting you of such things.
2.1.4. Omen Threat Meter
Omen Threat Meter is the most popular addon for displaying the current threat levels on your target. We recommend you to use it to avoid taking aggro when the tank is still building up threat on an enemy.
2.1.5. Parrot or Mik's Scrolling Battle Text
Parrot and Mik's Scrolling Battle Text are highly customisable addons for displaying floating battle text while in combat (incoming heals, damage of your spells, etc.). They both work very well by default.
2.1.6. Weak Auras
WeakAuras is an extremely useful addon that allows you to have visual effects on your screen, helping you track your buffs, debuffs and cooldowns. It is highly customisable and it can make it much, much easier to keep track of your procs and play your spec more proficiently. It can also be used for a variety of other functions.
2.1.7. Recount / Skada
Recount is a well known addon that most people use for displaying current DPS or HPS (Healing Per Second). We advise you to also use it for checking what you take damage from and if the share of damage/healing you do with each of your abilities is similar to that of other players of your class.
A lightweight alternative to Recount is Skada Damage Meter.
2.1.8. Grid and GridClickSets (Optional)
ElvUI comes with decent raid frames. The only real reason for using Grid and GridClickSets is if you want to be able to decurse raid or party members by right clicking their frame in the raid of party frame. If you choose to go with Grid, then you might want to also use GridStatusRaidDebuff.
2.1.9. TellMeWhen
TellMeWhen is an extremely useful addon with a user-friendly interface that allows you to track a multitude of things, from internal cooldowns, to buffs, debuffs, and procs.
2.2. Specific Addons for Balance Druids
To better keep track of your Balance Energy, we advise you to check out this forum thread, where Kazistrasz and Krazyito have been doing great work.

Husband and son search for missing Chinese woman
The husband and son of missing Chinese national Lianjie Guo made a plea on Thursday morning for the public's help in finding her.
A grid search was being conducted by investigators in the area where she was last seen, near Garden City Road and Capstan Way on June 7.
"Guo's disappearance is considered suspicious in nature and foul play has not been ruled out," RCMP Cpl. Sherrdean Turley said.
Guo, 47, went missing after coming to Canada on June 7 with her husband to visit their son.
She's described as five feet four inches tall, and was last seen wearing a red blouse, blue belt and blue jeans.

For sales training that scores with sales associates, Best Buy looks to the web—and sales associates
Some of the most enthusiastic fans of the latest consumer electronics gadgetry can be found in the aisles of consumer electronics stores-talking to customers and wearing a badge that says "associate." Many are electronics enthusiasts who are all over new developments and technology advances and have an answer to every question, even calling out product features that customers hadn't thought to ask about.
Their appetite for the category may be hard-wired-but thanks to the Internet, their knowledge about products can be shared with fellow associates. The staffer who loves photography, for example, can communicate what he knows about how to avoid getting red eyes in photos snapped with the latest Nikon camera. And, through sharing, it's possible to multiply the impact of that knowledge on camera sales.
Retailer Best Buy Co. Inc. is in the forefront of putting the cumulative product knowledge of store employees to work in training other associates. It's systemized that spread of information in a customized online training program: the online Learning Lounge, a web-enabled portal that's accessible to all Best Buy retail associates.
"Our main goal was to meet our employees where they needed to be met," says Laura Torok, Best Buy's training director. "To attract and retain top talent we needed to dramatically change the way we train our employees. It was our goal to create a learning community and not just another learning management system."
Best Buy launched this online community in September 2008, and experts say the timing was good because many store employees by then were familiar with other online communities-such as Facebook. But since a retailer-sponsored community is not the place for eyebrow-raising photos of weekend revels, Best Buy has established procedures to make sure the community is used for its intended purpose.
Learning online
Best Buy's Learning Lounge built on Learning Center, a more traditional knowledge base it had used for five years. Learning Lounge is a customized version of CyberScholar, a web site operated by Creative Channel Services that offers interactive sales and technology training and product information from consumer electronics and appliance manufacturers. The content, sponsored by manufacturers, is accessible free to associates at any retailer in the category.
Best Buy's Learning Lounge offers something more: a peer-to-peer component. If online community participation has become a big part of the social lives of Facebook-generation consumers, it stands to reason that community can be a driver in their work lives as well. The Learning Lounge seeks to harness that familiarity with web communities by allowing Best Buy store associates to upload training materials they have created to share with colleagues around the country.
"Peer to peer is very important because this is the way young people communicate today," says Claire Schooley, senior analyst with Forrester Research Inc. "Workers today want learning they can apply immediately to their work. They also want to drive their own learning."
Peer-to-peer online learning gives the material presented instant credibility among associates, Torok says, as employees are getting advice from someone, as she puts it, "in the trenches" with them. "We are a culture of collaboration, with Twitter, Facebook, YouTube," Torok says. "We have got to use the same types of tools in our training that employees are using in every other facet of their lives."
Yet Best Buy is one of only a few big retailers that enables employees to share the training material they develop online, Schooley says. "The main drawback I see is that the culture is not ready for it," Schooley says, noting that successful implementation of peer-to-peer online training requires a culture of cooperation and assistance.
She adds that such communities must be managed. "Employees must know the rules," Schooley says. "What are the guidelines and what are the consequences of knowingly going outside the rules?"
Towards that end, the company does not preview comments and ratings employees submit before posting them, but the greater Best Buy learning community and the retail training and development team flag inappropriate comments.
Original training content uploaded by employees is put temporarily on hold before it goes live to be reviewed and, importantly, to be tagged with keywords so the material can be found easily by others using the search tool on Learning Lounge.
Multiple sources
The Learning Lounge online portal is where all Best Buy's U.S. retail associates go for their training material. It is hosted outside Best Buy's firewall by Creative Channel Services; employees authenticate themselves with an employee ID number and password.
In addition to associate-generated content, the web site pulls training materials from three sources. First, Creative Channel Services supplies training materials it's created for sponsoring vendors, the same material that appears on its CyberScholar site.
Second, participating manufacturers can post product training material directly on their own vendor pages on Learning Lounge. Finally, Best Buy's retail training and development team creates and posts material that covers product, process and system training. The system can accept and display content in multiple formats such as video, audio and text.
Best Buy pays employees at their regular rate for spending one to two hours of training time in the Learning Lounge each month. They can access the site and use their training time from work or from home. They also have access to the company wiki, a database of product and company information that they can contribute to or edit, and to WaterCooler, a companywide employee discussion forum.
But it's the sharing of associate-generated content that pushes Learning Lounge into new training territory. Not only can associates upload training content they've created, but they can rate content created by their peers or from other sources, using a five-star system.
Associates can leave written feedback using a comment feature and they can flag errors, needed updates or any other aspect of the material requiring attention. They also can recommend any content on the system to other employees, with this material then referenced in a "recommended" section of the Learning Lounge home page employees see when they log in.
The costs
Best Buy won't say what it paid for the customized system. But to the extent that Learning Lounge contains materials supplied by product manufacturers it's the suppliers that bear the cost.

I'm relatively new to Git, but I want to give it a try (vs SVN and Bazaar).
Can anyone recommend me a workflow for a situation similar to the following:
- 1 SVN repo, with several projects
- 1 working copy "src"
The ideea is that in "src" I need to checkout project A or sometimes project B. Both projects have several branches.
For now, I have made 2 git clones of the SVN repo, one for each project. (I would have preferred --bare repos, but it does not work with git svn clone
Then, I made a git repo in "src", and git remote add projA ..a_repo_git
, "git remote add projB ..b_repo_git
Now, I can see both of them from "src" using "git remote", and I can see their branches with "git remote show projA"
And now the trouble..
- How can I get in "src" any of the branches in projA/projB ?
- How can I modify them, and then be able to push them back (first to the git_repos, or directly to the SVN repo)?
- Is this "workflow" ok, or do you have a better idea?
I did try in src: git checkout --track -b work_branch projA branch_in_A
and after some fiddleing with "fetch" I managed to get the things. But then, I had problems pushing it back to the a_repo_git
, and then to SVN. It was mostly trial and error.
I have to admit, I still have problems with remote branches! (and I get lost when I have to use "origin local_branch:origin_branch
" or "origin origin_branch:local_branch
", or "origin origin_branch
" or "origin/origin_branch
"! Back to the Git manual for some more reading.)

Re: October AA Meeting
AZHeather wrote:Hi, my name is AZHeather and I am an appoholic. I have been app free for 129 days. My app of choice is currently Amex.
Several times a week I log on to Amex, enter my info, and hover over the submit button. Then I reason with myself, picture my FICO scores, and close the window. I am close, oh so close, thinking of how great that feeling is of reading "You Are Approved!" Not to mention, getting the card in the mail; feeling the slick plastic in my hand; running my fingers over the raised letters of my name; hearing the noise of the activation label peeling off the card; signing the back knowing – it's mine -; and the wonderful feeling of it sliding into place in my wallet. That's the high.
The low is waking up the next morning with an inquiry! Oh that ugly inquiry that drives your FICO scores down. And heaven forbid the inquiry is for not - the denial. Yes, I said it - the denial! The thing that pops up on the screen screaming, "YOU ARE NOT CREDITWORTHY!" The inquiry from the denial, you know, the one that other creditors down the road will see when they HP you and see that while you have the inquiry from Amex, you do not have one on your report. The shame!!
That thought is what makes me close the window; not click the submit button. Not yet. Not now. I am not ready. I know this. One year app free, that is my goal. I will achieve it with a little help from my fellow appoholics.
LOL, I am glad I am not the only one going through page 3 of the application and not submitting. I save and get the reminder email to finish the application until it expires and do it all over again. March 2013, March 2013.

It has long been recognized that asking students to write words (not copy
them) is a very effective approach to developing word recognition and reading
skills (Adams, 1990; Clay, 1985). For example, in the Early Intervention in
Reading Program the students select a sentence to write. The teacher then
encourages each student to think about the spelling of each word and to write as
much of the word as he or she can. Teacher support is offered only as needed in
order to ensure that the students write the word accurately. For example, for
children who are having difficulty with phonemic awareness (the conscious
awareness that spoken words are composed of units called sounds and the ability
to manipulate those sounds), the teacher draws a box for each of the sounds in
the word. The children are guided to think about the number of sounds in a word
and the letters that represent those sounds. For example, the teacher would draw
three boxes for the word teach, grouping the 'ea' and 'ch' in separate boxes since in
that word 'ea' and 'ch' represent single sounds.
The writing used in the early intervention programs is somewhat different in
nature than writing instruction in a regular language arts program. In a regular
language arts program, the primary emphasis is upon communication, expression,
and organization of ideas. In first drafts, children are encouraged to use
"temporary" (also called "invented") spellings in order to move on with their
ideas, and then, as they move through process writing, to revise and edit their
writing. In the early intervention program, communication remains a purpose, and
the writing is always meaningful, often based, for example, on something of
interest to children or on a book just read; however, the writing is also more
specifically used to draw students' attention to the details of printed words in
order to reinforce and extend a student's growing word identification skills. As
Clay, who developed Reading Recovery procedures, puts it, "A case can be
made for the theory that learning to write letters, words, and sentences actually
helps the child to make the visual discriminations of detailed print that he will
use in his reading" (Clay, 1985, p. 28).
Given the brief amount of daily instructional time available in each of these
early intervention programs, teachers must make choices about where to focus
their instruction. As noted earlier, these programs are not comprehensive
language arts programs. The area of writing is a good example. The child who
participates in an early intervention program still needs classroom writing
instruction that focuses more pointedly on organizing and clearly communicating
ideas through writing and in engaging in the full process of writing, including
revising and editing.

November 6, 2008 Ahmadinejad congratulates Obama, tells U.S. to butt out |
Despite all the ridiculous paranoia that he was a closet Muslim (not that there's anything wrong with that) and legitimate concern about his desire to bring back diplomatic relations with Iran and against Omri Ceren's warnings, Barack Obama received 78 percent of the Jewish vote. I'm sure at least a few are having buyer's remorse this morning: Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni made a public appeal today for Obama to not yet reopen dialogue with Iran. On Tuesday, The Guardian also had a short article about what Iranians were hoping the outcome of the presidential election would be. Obama or John McCain, it sounds like they just want relations restored. Some also want the bomb. An excerpt after the jump: |
