I am new to MVC.
In a standard MVC 3 project in VS 2010, what can normal class files, eg Class1.cs1, use to make use of the MVC pattern? The files I am talking about are not the controller or view or model. They are doing some common tasks, but they still need to interact with the rest of the application. In these files, how do I use routes or call the controller actions? Do I use httpContext only and code in the old web form way?

Welcome to the world of MVC,
You better start from the following sample: http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/getting-started-with-ef-using-mvc
Have fun
Apr 05, 2012 12:30 PM|hc1|LINK
Please elaborate your needs.
For example, in one of my methods in Class1.cs I need to do a HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect ("...."). Should I use the Redirect method? Or is there some way I can call a controller action from this piece of code?
Apr 05, 2012 12:59 PM|francesco abbruzzese|LINK
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect ("....")......need just to agg the namespace the HttpContext is contained in...and calling HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect ("...."),,,,,,you can do it.
However it is not good practice to call Web Environment function in Business classes

hc1in one of my methods in Class1.cs I need to do a HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect ("....").
the class should anonunce( event?!) that the web should perform a redirect, not to perform itself...

Thanks, I think that is what I need. How to do it? What is announce?
Apr 05, 2012 03:12 PM|francesco abbruzzese|LINK
hc1What is announce?
Also something written into a property that says to the controller to perform a redirect
Apr 05, 2012 03:50 PM|ryanw51|LINK
return some sort of result (string, enum, bool, int, class, etc) that tells the controller where to go next. The flow looks like this:
request -> controller -> business layer -> controller -> response
[HttpPost] public ActionResult Example(Employee employee) { bool redirect = _service.DoBusinessStuff(employee); if(redirect) { return RedirectToAction("Index"); } return View(); }
Apr 06, 2012 11:16 AM|hc1|LINK
Thanks for all the responses.
I forgot to mention that the execution of my code does not originate from a controller action. It is from an overriden method (FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate) located in Global.asax.cs. So it is not following the MVC pattern per se, but a "traditional" piece of code. From within that code I want to join back to the main MVC pattern. Response.Redirect works, but it is not neat, and is there a better way?
Apr 06, 2012 12:38 PM|francesco abbruzzese|LINK
if your class is not a business object but it is a part of something you have created specifically to work with asp.net you can call ResponseRedirect because in this case also the this class is a part of the "presentation layer".
Apr 06, 2012 03:45 PM|hc1|LINK
Thanks. Which class/namespace does ResponseRedirect belong to?
Apr 06, 2012 03:53 PM|francesco abbruzzese|LINK
HttpResponse Class System.Web Response method:
Apr 07, 2012 03:42 AM|hc1|LINK
Thanks. I was using this earlier, and I hit the problem of the wrong relative paths.
I have just discovered that the Redirect method works with "~/xxxx" so this solved the problem for me now.

The dogs rescued from a Bronx dog fighter's basement last year are finally getting justice. Raul Sanchez, who pleaded guilty to dog fighting a few weeks ago, is now heading to prison.
Last week a judge sentenced Sanchez to one to three years for animal fighting, one year for animal cruelty and one year for criminal possession of a weapon. (Sanchez will serve these sentences concurrently.)
He's also been slapped with a ban on keeping animals for the duration of his parole. Sanchez waived his right to appeal.
We hope Sanchez's sentence serves as a reminder to dog fighters that their crimes against innocent animals carry serious consequences.
I believe people who do this should serve a minimum sentence of 5 years. Usually these people have begun hurting animals at a very young age and eventually it progresses to other people. Get them off the streets.
This piece of crap should of gotten more time....maybe they should have prison fights in jails, treat prisoners like they did to thes poor dogs---laws need to be stiffer!!!!!!
I am happy they put this thug in prison, but for my taste, it is much too short a sentence. You can get 30 years for credit card fraud as I understand, so for this in my opinion they should put the thug in a pen, tie his ass up and turn loose a few hungry and angry pitbulls on him. See how well he handles that.
Next time maybe he will decide its not worth it. Putting him in prision for a year with free meals and lodging is too damn nice as far as I am concerned.
There is something broken inside these people who get pleasure from dogfighting or any animal abuse. They can't be fixed by an insignificant sentence. He should NEVER be allowed to be around animals again. PS: humans are animals, too.
He should have gotten 20 years! Should be covered in their blood and the dogs turned loose on him. I think this would make others like him reconsider the next dog fight they plan!! People like this guy should be drawn and quartered!! Just my thoughts and I am not a violent person, I just hate it when man harms animals.
Those sentences should NOT run concurrently. The sentence needs to to be long -- and really sting just like the cuts, teeth marks and infections those poor animals were subject to because of his complete lack of caring for the dogs in his care.
I agree with the previous comments: not enough jail time and
he should be forbidden from ever, ever owning animals for the
rest of his life
I'm sorry but he will probably meet more inhuman dog fighting ring leaders in prison and will come out to continue harming these poor dogs. He should of gotten a minimum of 10 years.
This is a start but the sentence is not nearly enough! He should have received at least five years for each animal he abused and held in that building to be served consecutively and in chains; you know, like he chained those precious dogs! Make an example of the scum and maybe the next low life will think twice!

Six years after the release of his previous album "Landau", Toronto's Chris A. Cummings, a.k.a. Mantler, is set to release his highly anticipated fourth album Monody in April 2010. The album will be made available via Tomlab in continental Europe, Japan and the USA, and through exciting new partners Tin Angel in the UK and Ireland, and Blocks Recording Club in Canada.
An artist who continuously pushes the production envelope, Mantle's albums to date have each brought their own unique sound. Mantler's first album, "Doin' It All" (2000), was recorded almost entirely with a densely multi-tracked wurlitzer, a Rhythm Ace drum machine, and drums sampled on a primitive 1980s sampler. His second album "Sadisfaction" (2002) was more expansive, sedate and"rock"-like while the third album, "Landau" (2004), featuring tighter songs and brighter production, was intended as a tribute to the R&B sound of the late 1970s and early 1980s (the album was frequently compared to Steely Dan).
Mantler's new album, Monody, combines the best elements of the previous albums to create a grander, more epic version of his sound - the density of "Doin' It All", the sedate quality of "Sadisfaction", and the songwriting focus of "Landau".
Combining soul, rock, r&b, jazz and various other influences, the sound of Monody, which means "a sad melody" or "a single melody", is hard to pin down. Mantler further elaborates: "I like it when a 'normal' artist tries to make a 'weird' album, like Fleetwood Mac's Tusk, or when a 'weird' artist tries to make a 'normal' album, like Archie Shepp's Attica Blues. Somewhere between Tusk and Attica Blues, that's the area I'm aiming for, conceptually. Even if the end result sounds nothing like either of those two albums!"
To help achieve this junction of influences, Mantler teamed up with a plethora of talented collaborators. Six tracks on the album were produced by longtime Mantler producer Zack G, while Jeremy Greenspan (Junior Boys) and Leon Taheny (Bruce Peninsula) each produced 2 tracks and Owen Pallett did brass arrangements on two tracks. The roster of acclaimed guest musicians includes: Constellation artist and Toronto music guru Sandro Perri, ex-Montrealer and Local Rabbit Ben Gunning, the Ohbijou string section (Jennifer Mecija and Anissa Hart), two of the mad geniuses behind The Silt (Ryan Driver and Marcus Quin), Ernest Agbuya and Matias Rozenberg of The Matias Band (of which Mantler is also a member), Sam Allison and Teilhard Frost of Sheesham and Lotus, as well as longtime backing vocalist Dennis Frey.
Mantler's exquisite vocals, remarkable craftsmanship, and adeptness at creating unique musical moments reaches its pinnacle on Monody.

My self and my mother-in-law had no bites. Crazy! I would love to see a recliner or two in Living room for comfort in evening for relaxing.

This year there was a TV added in the second bedroom (with cable!) The condo is clean and comfortable, in a great location and is quiet. The pool is beautiful, and the ocean is just a few steps away. It is also on a golf course, which adds to the beautiful landscape -- it makes me wish I golfed! I would highly recommend this property.

About Florence and the Machine
New music coming from Florence and the Machine
What will new music from Florence and the Machine sound like? We're about to find out!
Florence Welch confirmed back in June that she was working on a third Florence and The Machine album. The announcement came at The Other Ball in Central London as part of a fundraiser for Arms Around the Child charity. The singer said she would not be performing any new material that evening "because it's not ready yet," and referenced 'hiding in a studio 24 hours a day' working on new stuff.
The upcoming disc will be the first since the release of Florence and the Machine's sophomore effort "Ceremonials," which reached number on in the UK and six on the US Billboard charts.
In August Rolling Stone magazine put together a panel of writers, industry figures and artists to vote on the 50 Greatest Live Acts performing in the world today. Florence and the Machine placed at No. 36 with the magazine saying, "At this point, Flo in concert is the pop equivalent of an appearance by Princess Kate. Her pipes are regal, and her sense of ceremony is impressive."
One song that Rolling Stone has singled Flo out for is the 'big beat Brit-soul choral chant' of "Shake It Out." It's one song fans are able to hear her play live, and with a new album on the way, it will only be a matter of time until new tour dates are also announced. Keep your ear to the ground, and get your tickets right here at SeatGeek when the announcement is made!
Spectacular at Sandance (Updated May 15, 2013)
So far, 2013 has been pretty kind to Florence and the Machine. The indie group has been rocking it out at places like Sandance, and in their spare time also cut a track for the remake of the feature film "The Great Gatsby."
Let's start by talking about that rousing performance in front of some 12,000 fans in the final Sandance before the summer break. The band ripped through a 12-song set taken from their albums "Lungs" and "Ceremonials," staging a bit of music drama. They started with the opener "Only for a Night" and never let off the gas, rounding out the performance with their hit singles "Shake It Out," "Dog Days Are Over" and "No Light, No Light."
Unfortunately, the festival is expected to be the band's only gig of the year, with Welch and keyboard player Summers taking 2013 off to work on a new record. When they do come back, it will be with a third LP in tow.
In the mean time, Florence and the Machine contributed "Over the Love" to "The Great Gatsby" soundtrack. They crafted the sound and catered the song from the perspective of the character Daisy Buchanan in the movie, which opened to a $51.1 million gate in its first weekend on the big screen. The soundtrack was released on April 17, 2013 on SoundCloud.
About Florence and the Machine
Florence and the Machine may be one of the first contemporary acts to find success with an ever-evolving cast of characters. Quite simply, this English indie rock band has gained mainstream success on the power of one name and a collaboration of other musicians.
Fronted by lead singer Florence Mary Leontine Welch, the band hit the big time in just a few short years, beginning with the release of the debut album, "Lungs," in 2009. It climbed inside the Top Ten and eventually landed at No. 1 after 28 consecutive weeks on the UK Albums Chart. The follow-up, "Ceremonials," released in 2011, took a much quicker path to the top, debuting in the No. 1 spot. It also held its own in the U.S., reaching the sixth spot on the charts.
The sound of Florence and the Machine can be hard to describe. It includes a mix of various genres, and can change based on Welch's backing vocalists, guitarists and drummers. Isabella 'Machine' Summers has served as a songwriter, producer and remixer for the band, as well as being the keyboard player. Mark Saunders comes in on bass guitar and Tom Monger plays the harp, which was famously caught in a trailer fire during a European tour. The harp's string began to ping in the heat of the flames, and the band recorded it to use in a song.
Florence and the Machine is known for its live performances, though in July 2012 the group was forced to cancel two dates after Welch sustained a vocal injury. She recovered and performed at the Osheaga Festival in Montreal the following month, and the band then hit the road with Spectrum. The North American leg wrapped October 13 with a date in Mexico City at Corona Capital 2012.

Comments about Profile Racing BMX Crank Tool- Standard:
If you have a set of profile cranks on your bike you and you do any sort or maintenance or swapping of cranks and bottom bracket you will require this tool to remove the crank arms.
Although a bit of a barbaric method to remove the cranks (it requires you to screw in the tool and then beat on it with a hammer) it does the trick each time. I have done several removals of the crank arms with this tool and it hold up each time.

Work has been busy. I told myself no more Harris-ing while I'm supposed to be working.
time is money, Thank you for your time
They might be able to create a clone of "you", but it would not be "you" in any other sense, just like identical twins can have different personalities.
I am saying, that they will be able to save your personality entirely and give you a body again.
The problem with using theory to "prove" God's existence is this - theists define God as forever beyond empirical science, so any theory is untestable.
I found out that even if you start with science God is the final destination.
How far science wants to go in the universe control?
Answer: total control of the universe.
Imagine in 15 century if Cristobal Colon say: the earth is round and if I go west I will find India.
Waltercat will say: "why would anyone believe such nonsense?"
Salt Creek and J.B.S Haldane will say: "People who claim fairies exist are not only dumber than we suppose, they're dumber than we can suppose."
Dlsmith will say: "Millienia of pain, suffering, fear, murder, torture, ignorance and deceit. Brought to you by your local place of worship".
Carstonio will say: "your theory is untestable".
Antisocialdarwinist will say: "your going …. (Sound of flushing toilet)"
Jefe will say: "We don't know, and making assumptions, leaps of faith or belief statements born of ignorance and/or wishful thinking doesn't change the fact that we don't know"
Sam Harris will say: "93 percent of the members of the National Academy of Sciences may well be doomed for eternity by their skepticism".
So is your choice, do you want to sail or stay?
Revelation 1:8
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End," says the Lord, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty"

Perfect Thank You & Christmas Card
My husband and I got married in October and decided to do a combination thank you and Christmas card since we'd be sending them at about the same time anyway. I did a lot of research online to find a card that would work well for this and that had a flexible design that allowed for customization. When I came across this card, I knew it would work perfectly. I deleted the text on the inside left panel, and that's where we'll write a personalized thank you note. I'm very pleased with the overall look and quality of the cards. I can't wait to get them in the mail!

Education for Sustainability
June 30th - July 12th, 2013
The Institute recruits participants from North and South America and then engages them in an immersive experience in the Peruvian Andes and the rainforest of the Amazon basin. This year's Institute will focus on Women in Sustainability and will be led by West Chester University professor, Dr. Denise Polk. For additional information, please contact workshop coordinator, Dr. Paul Morgan, firstname.lastname@example.com, or Winden Rowe at the ACEER Foundation, email@example.com.
Challenge & Vision: There are increasingly urgent conservation crises – overfished oceans, melting glaciers, and disappearing rainforests – that challenge all nations to pursue human development agendas that are genuinely sustainable. Despite growing interest in sustainability in North America, even the most successful efforts tend not to go much beyond "reducing unsustainability." While green consumerism has hit its stride, the underlying conservation crises continue to worsen. One of the major obstacles is the bubble of affluence and media distraction, coupled with disconnection from the sources and consequences of a consumptive, resource intensive culture. What's needed is a new breed of sustainability leaders who are grounded in the reality of life outside the bubble, who have a planetary perspective, and who have the global connections and cross-cultural skills to catalyze initiatives that aim for sustainability, not just less unsustainability.

The Berenstain Bears and the Bad Influence
The Berenstain Bears and the Bad Influence (Mass Market Paperback)
Sister Bear and her new friend, Miranda, make a lot of bad decisions—riding down Dead Bear's Hill, eating Ben's apples, running through Mizz McGrizz's tulips. When Mama Bear finds out about these things, she wants Sister to stop playing with their new neighbor. But is it really all Miranda's fault?
About the Author
Stan and Jan Berenstain were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 250 Berenstain Bears books have been published, and more than 260 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons' interest in children's books has become over the years arguably the best-selling children's book series ever.
Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter bookseven a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.
Since Stan's death at age eighty-two in 2005, Jan and Mike have continued to write and illustrate wonderful new adventures for Mama, Papa, Brother, Sister, and Honey Bear. They live in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, which looks a lot like Bear Country.

Yes, Switzerland has a reputation for neutrality, but the food in Switzerland is often an international mix. There are some wonderful local specialties but a good number of other dishes are influenced by its neighbors; namely Germany, Italy, and France. So it seems only fitting that the most wonderful department store in the country is named Globus, because its name seem to incorporate a philosophy of not just looking within the borders of Switzerland, but outside of them as well, in search of all things good to eat. And that certainly seems true of the grand food hall in the branch of their store in Lausanne.
Many department stores in cities around the world have entire floors dedicated to foodstuffs and are good places to make a whirlwind food tour, which I did with my tour group recently. But even on my own, I usually make it a point to hit one when I travel, such as the KaDeWe in Berlin, Marks & Spencer in London, or the Grand Épicerie in Paris. But whereas KaDeWe is super orderly and La Grand Épicerie can feel like a train station at rush hour, the food halls of Globus have an air of calm and comfort. And yes, even when you're in the presence of – *gulp* – my tentacled nemesis: octopus made into sausage.

Out of the intermission, Zach Cummings made it a 4-2 Limestone advantage for Shepherd went back-to-back before Hammock added his second as Pfeiffer stormed back for a 5-4 lead.
Riley Loewen started the Saints comeback to square the contest at 5-5 through three in front of Reinholdt taking over with the first two in the fourth quarter to provide a little insurance with 10:55 to play. Limestone would add two more late goals in the final five minutes to secure their tournament championship.
Anthony Lamarca, Zac Clark and goalkeeper Hayden Kirk were named to the all-tournament team.
Pfeiffer is schedule to play their 2012 regular season finale next Sunday at home against Lindenwood beginning at 1:00 p.m.

I have recently buy an Android Phone. I am always in search of good android applications. But finally after reading your blog i have got that. You really shared good information about new Android Apps. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for mentioning Opera. This browser deserves more love. Fast, full featured and great syncing.
Try TouchPal v126.96.36.199 and don't allow it to update , it's the best by far !!!.
I have recently buy an Android Phone. I am always in search of good android applications. But finally after reading your genial blog i have got that. You really shared perfect information about new Android Apps. Thank you to be such a charitable lady.
One of my new favorites is the RealPlayer cloud app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.real.RealPlayerCloud&hl=en You're able to add videos of any format to your collection in the cloud and it is automatically adjusted for your device screen-size, bandwidth and device type prior to playback. Makes sharing so much easier and obviously faster. Definitely recommend.
good list of apps. some of them really worth attention
Congratulations, you've written an article about android apps using a paginated webpage. Why? So it's really difficult for people using android device to navigate your article. I've stopped reading your article at page 2
I'm sure that Ms. Low has provided useful information, but the "slideshow" or "paginated" format (repeatedly clicking to load a new page with a new tidbit of information) has become tiresome. And unacceptable.
Apparently the purpose of the slideshow format is to force-load new pages with ads. I get it – ads are necessary. Unfortunately, this format has gone too far, and gets in the way of the message. It has become so bad that I no longer click on "articles" with titles like "10 Best Apps …" or "12 New Features …".
In addition to being annoying, this format wastes bandwidth. I would never click on these "articles" when using a cellular data plan.
This is the internet equivalent of distracting late-night TV lawyer commercials or infomercials. It's a real shame, because I'm sure that Ms. Low worked hard to present some good information.
great article. I actually ended up downloading several of the apps you mentioned.
The article is titled 15 best apps… But only 2 are shown, what am I missing?
Check Habit Browser. The best unknown browser for Android.
You can try out Photo4tune as an alternative for chat app!
I also like Smart Shield – its a free VPN product that lets me bypass any content or website filters and also keeps my Wifi data secure.
very informative site
you should try instafusion image blender app. it has a very easy and beautiful interface.
I like the post. I'm also using StitMe This one is also my favorite app. With StitMe you will able anonymous encrypted communication and spam Call Blocking Guard With Instant message, Chat Messenger And Free Voice Call!! Available FREE in Android – ow.ly/A3hQ6
too many click thrus. forget it.
Really worth it… 'm not using an android device, but i can share those at least…

Ignition coil failure may cause the engine to run poorly. The fault can be intermittent and may or may not illuminate the Check Engine Light.
2002 Jaguar S-Type Problem Reports
RepairPal Verified 2002 Jaguar S-Type Problem Reports
The plastic coolant reservoir is prone to leak. The reservoir can mysteriously lose coolant or coolant may pool under the engine compartment. If this occurs, the coolant reservoir should be inspected for cracks. If leaks are neglected, the reservoir may fail and cause the engine to overheat.
Premature automatic transmission failure is common. Diagnoses of the fault will be necessary to determine if repair or replacement is the proper repair.
On this V8 engine, timing chain problems are very common. Because the timing chain tensioners were made from plastic, they can fail prematurely and cause serious engine damage. A noticeable engine noise while idling or during a cold start can indicate a timing chain tensioner problem. The engine noise may also be accompanied by a rough or uneven engine idle. Improved components are available to remedy this problem.

Victor Matfield must be lured back to Springbok rugby for the 2014 and 2015 seasons. There is no South African No 5 lock in his class.
Fourie du Preez delivered a master class cameo against the Pumas that screamed good enough is young enough and that good enough should be the only criteria to Bok selection.
Springbok coach Heyneke Meyer's primary objective is to win every time the Boks play. He has been consistent in saying a winning habit is the best preparation to any tournament campaign, be it the Rugby Championship every year or the Rugby World Cup every four years.
Du Preez is the best scrumhalf available to South Africa. Where he plays his domestic rugby should never be a consideration when it comes to national selection.
I don't subscribe to the theory that if you limit or prohibit offshore Springbok selections then it will stop the exodus to Europe and Japan.
Rugby is evolving as a profession every year and it is important to separate club, provincial and regional tournaments from the cause of the national team.
There are more than 100 very good South African players excelling abroad. Of those 100 less than 10 percent are better than what is in South Africa when considering national selection.
This has to be put into context.
That 10 percent, however, is the difference between a very good Springbok match day squad and a potential great Bok match day squad, with the capability of winning a World Cup.
Meyer has the quality player available to him to take assemble a World Cup squad that will travel in 2015 with conviction and not just hope.
The 10 percent of the 100-plus players is 30 percent of the World Cup squad. The 10 percent is roughly 10 selections in 30.
By limiting selection all the South African Rugby Union would be doing is denying the national coach the opportunity to take his strongest team to England in 2015.
Players should not be punished for excellence. A less talented player should not be rewarded with Bok selection because there isn't as great a demand for him to play overseas.
There has to be maturity in this outlook. No player is turning his back on his country by opting for an overseas contract that can't be matched locally.
The rugby public must stop begrudging a player his right to maximize his earning capacity; more so given the professional life span of the player is more five years than the 10 it once was in the amateur era.
Du Preez's cameo highlighted just what Meyer and the South African public has been missing.
I have no doubt that when Jaque Fourie returns to South Africa in 2015 or makes himself available for selection to the Boks in 2015 he will prove as valuable an asset.
The key to the Boks success, in the now and in Rugby's marquee tournament in 2015, is going to be the quality of the bench.
The ruthless exhibition against the Pumas can be linked directly to the immense stature of player introduced in the second half.
Meyer must be allowed to continue to build a squad befitting the challenge of a World Cup campaign and the week-to-week goal of winning Test matches.
The same amount of players will continue to leave South Africa in between World Cup years, whether the opportunity to play for the Boks is a possibility or not.
I want to see the best available Bok team every time they play, and not just for the six week duration of a World Cup every four years.
The regional woes of losing players should not be made the national coach's problem. Meyer should not be limited in his selection.
In South Africa the best players are retired too young in selection because of this obsession that a younger player is the greater investment.
Judge the quality of the player and not his age.
I still believe Victor Matfield retired too young and since 2011 not one No 5 lock in South Africa has matched his on-field contribution.
Meyer should be encouraging Matfield to consider playing again in 2014. He still has two quality years in him as a player.
There will be many who mock the suggestion of a Matfield return and they would be the same who bemoaned Du Preez's Bok selection.
Meyer's Boks in Soweto gave a hint of the possibilities of this team if there are no restrictions on selection or limitations on the desire to dream of being the best in the world.
We need to think big – and that means we need to think Matfield as well.
Take what excelled in Soweto and think of the strength of a Bok World Cup squad that includes Fourie, JP Pietersen, a fit and firing Frans Steyn, a motivated Matfield, the experience of Bakkies Botha -to go with Eben Etzebeth – and even the possibility of Schalk Burger.
Meyer must be allowed to revel in what's on offer and not be restricted because of the geographic of what's on offer.

The other college presidents nearly laughed Earl Danieley out of the place when he publicly entertained the possibility Republican Jim Holshouser might be elected governor.
A Republican hadn't won the position since the Reconstruction Era and the General Assembly had been dominated by Democrats just as long.
Danieley, president emeritus of Elon University, was at a planning meeting of church-related college presidents and someone suggested the group invite the governor-elect to speak at that year's November meeting. Greensboro College's president mentioned he was friends with Democratic nominee Hargrove "Skipper" Bowles and would extend an invitation. Danieley mentioned he knew Holshouser and would invite him as well.
"They just howled," Danieley said Tuesday. "I just said, 'OK, well there are two men running. We'll just invite them both and the winner will speak and the one who doesn't win won't speak.'"
Holshouser spoke.
"The greatest thing you can say about Jim Holshouser: He was such a gentleman that the Democrats in control of both houses worked with him … He did not make enemies. He made friends," Danieley said. "He went to both houses with programs … that were good for the state. They realized he would work with them fairly."
Holshouser was born in Boone and, after graduating from the UNC School of Law, served as a representative of Watauga County in the General Assembly and was the House Minority Leader. He was also chair of the state's Republican Party from 1966 to 1972. He was elected governor in 1972 and completed his term in 1977.
Holshouser died Monday at a Pinehurst hospital at the age of 78. Funeral services are planned for Friday at Brownson Memorial Presbyterian Church in Southern Pines.
Danieley first met Holshouser in the late 1960s and then hosted a campaign reception for him during his run for governor. They quickly became friends, keeping in close contact throughout the decades. Danieley considers him one of the most thoughtful and considerate people he's ever known.
By 1983, they were both serving on the University of North Carolina's Board of Governors — which Holshouser created when he consolidated the state's public university system. They served 12 years together on the board.
"He loved the university. He served it so effectively. He always had the answer to perplexing problems," Danieley said. "He was an unbelievably effective member of the board. He was always quiet, never pushy. But so glib and so wise."
HOLSHOUSER'S WIFE,Patricia Hollingsworth Holshouser, was Catherine Johnson's first cousin. She recalls seeing the Holshousers and their daughter, Jenny, at family reunions and other gatherings once a year.
"He was one of a kind, really. He could listen to all sides and make the best decisions for North Carolina and the people," Johnson said.
During Holshouser's campaign for governor, Johnson — now an associate dean at Alamance Community College — was engaged to current Alamance County Superior Court Judge Rob Johnson. The soon-to-be newlyweds were presented at the 1973 Governor's Ball.
"It was like a fairy tale," Catherine Johnson said. "Then, when we were getting married, people kept asking if the governor was coming to the wedding. I would say, 'Yes, he's going to be there, but I hope you're coming to see us get married.'"
The Johnsons have a picture of the Holshousers in the receiving line at the ceremony.
"Jim is one of the smartest people I've ever known. He had integrity and common sense. But more than that, he was pleasant and wonderful to be around," Johnson said.
BYRON TUCKER, announcer for 920AM WPCM, served for 18 months in Holshouser's security team at the Governor's Mansion. At the time, the top five graduates of the N.C. Highway Patrol were automatically assigned to the Executive Security Team, escorting the governor and first family.
"It was kind of like the Secret Service," Tucker said. "Governor Holshouser extended my stay (with executive security). The longer I stayed, the more responsibility I had with his travel. Where they were, you were."
Tucker escorted the governor around the state, to games at UNC and to meals at Chapel Hill's Rathskeller — one of Holshouser's favorite places to eat.
"He was very conversational. He would talk about things other than politics. He loved sports," Tucker said. "Out of respect, he never called me anything other than 'Trooper Tucker' and I called him 'Governor.'"
Tucker recalls the governor being sensitive to the needs of North Carolinians.
During the gas crisis, Holshouser asked to be escorted in the most fuel efficient vehicle the state had. He was aware the Lincoln Town Cars and other vehicles in the state's fleet were gas guzzlers.
Afterward, Holshouser was driven around in a six-cylinder Carolina-blue Plymouth Valiant
"He didn't think it was right to be in a Town Car when people were waiting in lines for gas," Tucker said. "Also, during the energy issue and gas crisis, someone made a bicycle with a generator on it to power the mansion's Christmas tree. Jenny would ride on the bike and provide power to light the tree."
Part of Tucker's job was also to make sure the governor was on time for each of the events and speaking engagements scheduled during tours of the state. That sometimes proved difficult because of Holshouser's way with conversation and people.
"He was just one heck of a guy," Tucker said. "I can't speak from a political standpoint — historians do that kind of thing — but I can't say enough good things about him."

Even the trees surrounding the basket were cut down. Does anyone know what's going on with this and where the new tee and basket will be? Also all the tees have the posts in, ready for the new signs, and some new wooden benches on some holes
Looking good!

Cleft lip and cleft palate occur when tissues in the baby's face and mouth don't form properly. Normally, the tissues that make up the lip and palate fuse together in the second and third months of pregnancy. But in babies with cleft lip and cleft palate, the fusion never takes place or occurs only partially, leaving an opening (cleft).
Researchers believe that most cases of cleft lip and cleft palate are caused by an interaction of genetic and environmental factors. In many babies, a definite cause isn't discovered.
