Re: Details on this 'lost at sea' story?
Given the number of cruisers making passages every year it's amazing how seldom I hear of losses like this. My feeling is that most ocean sailors and their boats are pretty well prepared before setting out on a crossing. Any thoughts from others who hang with the long distance crowd?
During an Atlantic crossing with two pilots a few years ago there was lots of time to talk about the typical combo of human error, equipment problems and external forces (like weather) that come together to cause most aviation disasters. Same with sailing.....and it seems like this storey fits right into that pattern.
Last thought....I hope that both partners were equally 'eyes open' on the risks they were taking....then it is their adventure and their lives to live, however tragic the outcome. Not sure that is typically the case where you might have a strong willed overly eager skipper.

You can use retention policies to group one or more retention tags and apply them to mailboxes to enforce message retention settings. In some scenario, you may need create custom retention policy and apply to all users automatically.
Generally, to create custom retention policy and apply it to all mailboxes in the organization, you can follow the steps below:
1. Connect to Office 365 service through remote PowerShell.
2. In PowerShell run Enable-OrganizationCustomization enable customization.
3. Create Retention Policy Tag by using New-RetentionPolicyTag similar to below:
New-RetentionPolicyTag -Name "Darkaura-Default-Archive-All-3-Months" -RetentionAction movetoarchive -AgeLimitForRetention 90 -Type all -Comment "All mails are archived after 90 days. Users without archives are not affected."
4. Create a Retention Policy to include the tag
New-RetentionPolicy -Name "DarkAura Archive" -RetentionPolicytagLinks "Darkaura-Default-Archive-All-3-Months"
5. Apply the Retention Policy to all the mailboxes:
Get-Mailbox | Set-mailbox -RetentionPolicy "Darkaura Archive"
6. Following command can be used to verify whether the retention policy has been applied to all the mailboxes:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | select Alias, RetentionPolicy
7. Create the script.
a. Open Notepad.
b. Copy and paste the text that is between the # signs to Notepad.
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | select Alias |export-csv C:\users.csv
$Users = Import-csv -path "C:\users.csv"
$users | ForEach-Object
$alias = $_.Alias
Start-ManagedFolderAssistant $alias
c. On the File menu, click Save As.
d. In the Save As dialog box, click All Files (*.*) in the Save as type box, type Start_MFA.ps1 in the File name box, and then save the file to the desktop.
8. In PowerShell, run the script.
9. Drag the .ps1 file from the desktop to the PowerShell window. The path is automatically displayed in the PowerShell window.
10. To run the script, press ENTER.
11. Login with any mailbox account in OWA .
a. Click Options, click See all Options.
b. Click Organize E-Mail, click Retention Policies.
c. Verify the custom Retention Policy is applied:
More Information
Set Up and Manage Retention Policies in Exchange Online with Windows PowerShell
Apply Retention Policies and Archive Policies to Your Messages
Applies To/Requirements
Office 365 for Enterprise
Exchange Server 2010 SP2
Scenario: Some mailboxes have different policies already and you only want to apply a new policy to mailboxes without an existing policy.
What would the command to apply "Darkaura Archive" be in this case?
Never mind I think I figured it out:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -Filter {(RetentionPolicy -eq $null) -and (Name -NotLike "DiscoverySearch*")} | Set-Mailbox -RetentionPolicy "Darkaura Archive"
We have set Retention policy on 2007 , 2010 and 2013 we have these version setup in our env all 3 are not connected .... question is can i set retention policy as default as if anyone create a new mailbox it should auto apply the retention policy ... can
you please help on setting or any script which runs daily and apply any new user ?

Respond to Review of Bodhi
by smusevilla
Review: I never expected to find the best vegetarian Restaurant I have ever eaten at in Buenos Aires, the capital of meat-lovers... But that is exactly what Bodhi was. Fantastic food, most of it vegan, all of it vegetarian. The place is simple and not where you want to go to for a romantic dinner. It's in a poorer part of town and lots of locals eat there, many of them come to pick up take away. There is no menue, just a big buffet with over 60 different dishes, you pay per person (mind you, it's dirt cheap, we paid 15 dollars for two people) and you can eat as much as you want. There are salads, lots of quiches and pies, stews, stir frieds, desserts, etc etc. The place is run by Chinese so there are lots of Asian dishes, but also lots of other things. We went there twice and loved it both times. Can't wait to go back. One note: as I said, it's not in the best part of town, so maybe you should consider taking a taxi. It's about a 20 minutes walk from Plaza de Mayo. Actually, somebody tried to rob us on the way home from Bodhi once (typical trick where they put dirt on you and then pretend to be helpful strangers), but then again, this is Buenos Aires... It just happens. Take a taxi and enjoy the food, it's well worth it!

- Excerpt from Detroit Gets a Fresh Start and Pension Debt is at Risk:
Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes ruled from the bench on December 3, 2013 (followed by a written opinion on December 5, 2013) that Detroit is eligible for bankruptcy protection, allowing the city to attempt to restructure $18.5 billion of debt. Thus begins the largest American municipal bankruptcy case. After nine days of trial, the judge ruled that although the city did not negotiate in good faith prior to bankruptcy, it was impossible for the city to do so. He concluded that the city was insolvent, it desires to effect a plan that adjusts its debts, and it filed its bankruptcy petition in good faith. In addition, in an equally important ruling, Judge Rhodes ruled that even though the Michigan Constitution provides that pension rights may not be "impaired or diminished," pension debt has no greater protection than ordinary contract debt and can be subject to impairment in a federal bankruptcy proceeding. He cautioned, however, that he will not lightly exercise the power under the federal bankruptcy law to impair such pension debt. Appeals on both rulings are expected, perhaps directly to the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.

I was in my eighth grade health class and my teacher had told us about this remedy. She said, "I can probably count the amount of pimples I've had in my entire life". Hearing this from an adult I trusted, I decided to try it. Her specific directions were to apply as many coats of egg whites to your face as necessary with a makeup brush. Leave that on for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water and optionally using your favorite face wash. She told us to follow up by rubbing an ice cube on our face to make the pores close/tighten. I've found it also helps to use a face moisturizer afterward. I've definitely noticed a difference. I do this every Monday night. I would definitely suggest this remedy to anyone with an acne problem.
I am 26 now but as a child a total tard/klutz and CUT OFF the tip of my finger while in the care of a crazy gypsy baby sitter.. She cracked an egg and because it was only the very tip of my finger placed the tip back on peeled the thin skin layer out of an egg and placed it over my severed an re-attached finger tip! I thinking that she was INSANE waited eagerly for my mother with a paper towel over the tip holding it on as the baby sitter had instructed. When my mother got home still holding the tip of my finger tightly in the paper towel screamed "MOM, MOM, MOOoooM I cut the tip of my finger off!" I pulled away the paper to show her and to my surprise the finger tip was sealed back into place! I No scab, nothing but a tiny whit circle where it had been bleeding and cut. I have a perfect circular scar on that tip to this day and mild numbness at the tip but it is/was completely healed! My mother thought I was insane but I have never forgotten to this day that little trick.. Just in case my own child ever happens "Hopefully not " but if he does something so stupid like chopping an apple with a butcher knife. I will know what to do. :] Having read most of the reviews on these "Egg mask" ideas in my reading I have noticed a similar theme. Although I have not tried this I have heard some face types have been broke out worse. I believe that the amount of bacteria on the face in eggs or hands may be most likely the culprit. Before and after the mask washing face/hands might help with break outs after use. I am attempting to find my nearest Safety choice Pasteurized egg supplier and try this wonderful Idea. Using pasteurized eggs MAY very well make a HUGE difference in safety as well as lower the break out and bacteria risks. EGGS ARE AMAZING! :p
I have blackheads on my face, not huge pores, but I do have a lot. I read that this would pull them out, so I was disappointed when none of my black heads were removed after doing this, however; this did make my skin glow and left my face feeling smooth. I love to do this mask and then my makeup, it leaves me looking clear. All you do is separate the egg white from the yolk, use a old makeup brush (a clean one) to spread it onto your face, then once the first layer is finished drying grab some toilet paper and place it on your face, applying another layer of the egg white , wait about 30 minutes and you're all good . (: This also did not irritate my skin at all, good for all in my opinion.
Made my face feel nice and tight at first but then it would break me out slightly more
I only used this once, with one organic brown egg white. I used my fingers and spread it all over my face. At first it felt good, because it tightened and I felt a sort of tingling sensation. I left it on for ten minutes, but it still wasn't dry yet, so I waited until it was dry and tried to peel it off like many people said to online. However, it was so flaky that it came off in tiny tiny pieces, and I felt like a layer of my skin came off with it too! My normally oily skin was really dry, itchy, and red, and my pimples were worse. I have not done it since, and I will never because of the horrible results.
I have to say there are a lot of posotive reviews and negative, my opinion is that it is great and works fast. Leaves your skin smooth but only few spots gone. But this is only day one tommorow i will write up my response of how my skin has reacted after 1 night. But overall so far : BRILLIANT :)
When I wear this masking does make my skin tight and smooth. That's why I have used it quite a few times, but I noticed afterwards it made my skin breakout the next day. It has the same exact effect on my bestfriend. I believe it is the animal protein that makes the acne react in this way. So I would suggest someone to try it one time (because it is a Really great mask), but if you notice your skin breaking out stop using it. Coffee grounds have been the best acne exfoliate for my face and body so far. If you can't fine anything that works try that! It is what I'm going to suggest to my YouTube subscribers actually. (:
i do this mask twice a week, i cover my face with the whites, apply thin toilet paper, and cover my face again and wait 30 minutes before peeling the paper off. it really softens my skin and reduces my redness, plus removes blackheads, scars, and controls oily skin (which i have). id recommend this mask to anyone. try iiitttt !!!!!!
I love it!! It works so good for me, it tightens my skin and my pores are visibly reduced after just less than a month of wearing the masks!! Also, it works well on acne and decreases the redness of acne, controlling breakouts at the same time. I would definitely recommend this to everyone!! It just works so good!!
Egg white mask works. But you must clean your face well, before applying the mask. People who suffer from acne, use Neutrogena bar of soap. Neutrogena has special bars soap for your skin type. I found the bar soap is better than liquid form.
Leave egg white mask for 15-20 minutes. After the processes of the mask, then clean your face with warm water. When face has been wash. You always want your pores to close, in order of preventing pimples from breeding in there. After face has been wash, immediately use chilled witch hazel to help shrink pores and as well cleanse the face area. There are different egg white mask. Look on the internet which would work for your type of skin.
To keep skin moisturizer, use natural oils. If you use a product from the store can cause your acne to flare. I found pumpkin seed oil put moisture in your skin. You can buy pumpkin seed oil in gel pill form. Apply the amount that is needed for your skin. When it has absorb in skin. Then apply Sunscreen to face and neck. Must becareful which sunscreen you use. Kiss My Face sunscreen is more natural.
Aloe is good to heal acne flares just consistently rub on area every day. It will do the job. So, that you won't be bored. Do this procedure when watching TV. When face heals, use key lime juice freshly squeezed and rub several of layers of juice on face. It will help close pore and whiten dark spots on face. You will have to wash your face afterwards. You will see the glow on your face.
I had terrible acne and my face has cleared from using natural elements. If people breakout you must make sure your face is very clean. Clean pillowcases help, change pillowcases every day. Keeping pores from getting clogged which cause acne.
Also, if you have serve acne drink a gallon a purified water a day. Stay away from greasey food. Eat healthy to balance hormones levels. Unbalanced hormones can cause acne. You will see the change after 3 weeks.
I hope all this info help you.

Bandit vs. Bambi - long
I have a renewed joy and gratitude for every breath I take. I feel so fortunate to be alive. Sh!t happens and on July 19, 2007 I slipped in it.This is my story.
I live in Humboldt County California which is in the far northern part of the state on the coast. A friend of mine and I were making our yearly trip to the Moto GP at Laguna Seca in Monterey, CA. It was about 7:30 PM and we were enjoying our ride on Rt 1 along the coast. It was beautiful, sunny and warm and the scenery was first rate. Things couldnt be better and we had less than an hour to go before we would reach our destination for the night. Jay was riding in front of me on his BMW GS1150S and I was about 2 seconds behind on my 2005 Suzuki Bandit 1200S. I knew this was a bad time of the day for deer movement and there had been deer warning signs so I was keeping my eyes peeled and riding in the left center of my lane so I felt I would be able to swerve to either side if a deer needed to use the road too. We were just past Bodega Bay when the car in front of us traveling at 55mph waved us to pass him. It was a double yellow but the road was straight, long and clear. Jay passed first and then it was my turn. Now I do know that passing on a double yellow is illegal but I could see there were no cross streets and the big Bandit just makes passing so easy. I bumped it up to 70-75mph and breezed around the car. We stayed traveling at that speed to put a little distance between us and the car and probably got about an eighth of a mile in front of him.
Jay never even saw the deer. It hopped onto the road just as he passed and stopped in the middle of my lane. I still thought I could still miss it although I knew I would probably clip him. I started to swerve left and as I was doing so Bambi decided to take two steps forward and then I knew we were going to meet. At this point I was still feeling I could ride it out as it was a small deer.
BAM Bambi and I briefly occupied the same space at the same time as I hit him square in the middle and rode through him. As I exited the deer I realized I was still going straight but the bike and I were banked WAY over to the right almost laying on the side of the bike. Then I WAS laying completely on the side as the bike went onto its case guards. It was time for me to get off the bike as I realized I was in the middle of a motorcycle wreck. I vividly remember sliding along the road and thinking
This isnt so bad.
This is the point of my story ..a zillion thanks to the Advrider face plant forum for ATGATT (all the gear all the time).
Me It didnt hurt ..then ..stupid me ..I tried to get up ..unfortunately I wasnt done sliding yet. That stupid move put me into a tumble over and over and over. It didnt seem like it would ever end but it finally did. Now I have 8 years of martial arts training (danzan ryu jujitsu) and I am used to rolling so I like to think that helped me but realistically things happen so fast that there was no control on my end at all. What saved me was the gear. No ifs, ands, or buts. The gear made this whole accident no big deal. After I stopped rolling I felt perfectly fine and just got up. I didnt feel the need to lay in the road. As I was walking towards my bike I did another assessment of myself and realized again that I was completely OK . I had just stepped off a motorcycle at 70-75mph and survived unscathed. Actually I did have a dime size piece of road rash on the back of my wrist where my Joe Rocket armored glove burned through but that was it. Unbelievable. I slid and tumbled over 200 ft.
The Gear .The road was a very coarse open pavement and it shredded my gear. My 4 year old, red faded to pink, Technic armored jacket was all ripped up in the elbows and forearms and my Fieldsheer overpants took their beating on the knee armor and down the outside of my legs. I scuffed up my brand new metal toe guards on my Sidi Discovery boots but no other damage to them. Thank you gear!! Better you than me. My helmet didnt even have a scratch on it.
The Bandit .I was not looking forward to seeing it at all. Jay had come back by this time and the car that we had passed had stopped with flashers on and the three of us are standing there staring at the bike laying on the side of the road. I was glad it had stopped running. The up side of the Bandit did not look to bad and I realized it didnt tumble. The three of us lifted the bike up and after a minute of checking it out I remarked that the Bandit looked pretty good considering it had just slid over 300 ft down a very course road on its side. It even crossed a bridge. The bike slid on its Suzuki case guards (ground them down to maybe half an inch thick). I was really glad that I had installed them as the motor was unscathed. The back half of the bike wasnt to bad either since I had on Cortech saddlebags and tailbag. The right side saddlebag wore off the two outside pockets but the main compartment was still intact and I didnt lose anything. I even had a laptop computer in the tailbag which is fine as I am typing on it now. The Cortech bags didnt shift at all and were in exactly the same place as I mounted them. The Cortech tank bag left the bike and skidded along its top but everything inside including my expensive digital camera was fine although the tank bag itself was toast. The stock muffler has a little rash on it but is still useable. The front of the bike did grind down the right side fairing and broke the turn signal and front brake lever but that was ALL the damage I could see. Bambi left a lot of its gook on my bike so the Bandit was looking a bit roughed up but still rideable. Bambi also left quite a bit of deer hair in the bead of my front tire.
So . Lucky me I took some pictures of the whole scene and bike, paid my respects to the deer I just killed while Jay pulled it off the road, cut the shredded pockets off the saddlebags and then we were off. We lost about 45 minutes and we did have to ride slow as I had no front brakes but I was so happy to be alive that I was counting my blessings with each passing mile.
We were able to continue on for a great weekend at Laguna Seca and I have already ridden it over a thousand miles since. The Bandit is all cleaned and repaired and is looking pretty good for its 21,000 miles. The only thing left is we are waiting for our new Yoshimura exhaust to arrive. That will be my lemonade from my lemons. The deer hair is still in my front tire as I now prepare the bike for a 9-10,000 mile coast to coast to coast trip to leave this month. The funny thing is that I wanted all new gear for my trip but I had decided against it for financial reasons. Now I have all new gear ..ask and you will receive. Just not the way I thought I would.
Lesson .While traveling on my trip I am going to only travel from about 9AM-4PM. I think the odds will be better. When I see deer warning signs I am going to just slow down.
So thank you, thank you, thank you advrider for the ATGATT mantra. You guys drilled it into my head and I am so glad I listened. I hope my story helps at least one other person do the same.

Things like this are good to hear.
And , I'll try to remember not to try to stand up while I am in the middle of sliding down the highway during a crash. That's good advice.

Amazing that you and the bike came out of it so well.
I went down in 1975 while test riding a used '74 Kawasaki 900. I was 18 at the time. The bike went into a bad wobble and I lost it around 85 to 105. My gear at that time was a helmet, T shirt, Levi jeans and sneakers. I lost a lot of skin, but didn't break any bones. Anyway, my point is when I was sliding down the road I thought I better keep my feet up. I was afraid if I put them down I would start rolling and break a lot of bones. It worked for me. Your description reminded me of this incident.

Wow, what a story ... I'm glad that you faired as well as you did. For the nay-sayers; what's the true cost of the gear? I will continue to buy the best stuff I can, as this kind of thing happens too often, and generally without any warning.

Thanks for translating in full the ATGATT mantra. I was considering asking you guys what it meant. Thanks also for sharing your story. One more reason for me to keep wearing ATGATT. But I've got to confess to you my gear has yet to be completed with leg protections.
Oh and btw, sorry for Bambi.

Yeah my little brother was clipped across the back wheel on an interstate service road. The bike went down hard to the left and he slid on HIS FACE for a long while at 60 MPH. Full face Shoei lost the visor immediately and then as he contemplated his eyeglasses bouncing off of the pavement two or three inches away from his face, he decided to try and roll over. This sent him rolling and he would have hit a curb he rolled over if he hadden't. The gear did it's job.
Bike was totalled. He basically walked away.

Glad you came out okay - amazing story! Riding after dinner time in the summer scares the heck out of me because of the Bambi factor - I really try not to do it.

Why my boyfriend pick his Xbox over me at night?
Hi my boyfriend is 30 and he loves his Xbox! I don't mind that he likes to play, it's just the hours he spends on it and those lonely nights I sleep... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Xbox is so much better than women. It is always visually stimulating, never complains, is always ready to do something you want to do. You will never beat it.
Don't demand that he quit playing altogether. Plan ahead what you are going to do with each other and don't let him change plans. Allow a few nights for Xbox.
"Xbox is so much better than women"
Lol this is what's wrong with guys on this site.
- Show Older Hide Older
The vast majority of women don't do that. The ones I hang out with don't even know how to cook for themselves. Women are awesome but the act of finding the right one for you sucks a lot and Xbox is usually a better all around good time.
I see what your saying about most women don't do that, I'm not like most women. I do my best to understand my man and make him happy, I just don't think he understands me... I'm not asking for much, I would just love to sleep close to my man shouldn't be an issue and talk about anything. Make each other laugh kiss one another just his present. Just twice a week would be nice, anything then nothing.
What Guys Said 6
Is this his first type of video game console?
If so, he will get bored of it sooner or later.. Everyone does.
Atleast he's not going out at night and actually leaving you. Cause I'm pretty sure you would lose you sh*t over that a lot more then this. This is nothing.
Your right about the going out part.
Yea I don't mind he playing it's just that he can't compromise or think of my needs.
It sucks hearing about stuff like this, because I'm into games as well, and I don't have a girlfriend. But he needs to learn that you're more important than the xbox. I guess maybe he's playing it more than being with you, because it's something new to him. Do you play games with him to spend time with him? I hope I don't hear later on that you made him choose between you and games, and him choose games, but keep me informed on this. I hope it does get better for you.
I did once but I didn't care to play really.. I play sims3 on my pc probably like 3 or 5 times a month not even that... I have a 2yr old boy so he keeps me pretty busy.
- Show Older Hide Older
I would never let him choose cause I already knw he would choose the Xbox which is sad.
Well hopefully it gets better for you.
seems like the xbox is more entertaining. He gets some fun out of it. Whereas when he takes care of you, you get something out of it.
He plays the damn thing every night! His playing as we speak, I worked this morning and we both also work evening shifts tonight. I just feel like nothing, I used to have fun with each other before that Xbox came along...
Once they make those things with the ability to have sex with us, women will be in huge trouble. I read your comment under Frunkiss, and you've got to be kidding me with that. Most women don't do that now.
I wasn't meaning sex just want to be held at night it's been months since we've slept in the same bed he passes out on the couch cause his up all hours of the night playing Xbox. We both work and really don't have much time together to talk or just enjoy each others company, if that's hard to ask for then that's a problem. What do most women do now, please explain.
"If the Xbox is so much better than women, then it can start washing his clothes clean his house feed and take care of his dog out etc." That's your comment under the guy below me and most women certainly don't do that.
I meant that if the gave the ability to be sexually pleased by game consoles, women would be in big trouble. Wasn't talking about that being what you wanted.
I understand why you would be upset by the whole thing. I get it.
What time do you go to sleep?
I have mention to him how I felt, I just hate sleeping alone...the earliest I go to bed is midnight especially if I have to be up at 5 for work, but most time it's like 1. I don't like his comments when I do go to bed "don't be doing you shouldn't be doing" if he was so concern then come to bed with me don't make assumptions about me when don't knw.
I was asking a question not making assumptions. Way to jump to conclusions woman! Your boyfriend is addicted to his Xbox. Try walking out naked in front of the TV one night when you're about to go to sleep and just drag him out of the couch and into the bed. But don't turn it off because he will probably get mad, or actually on second hand just f***ing turn it off and tell him its a game and he needs to grow the f*** up.
I wasn't meaning you were making assumptions I was talking about him (my bf)sorry for the confusion. I'm not trying to use my body to get him to just come to bed with me in that way I want to be respected. It just hurts that's all. I've heard it works though but I'm not sure if that's my style, but I could try something new. I'll give it a shot and see what happens. Thanks.
What Girls Said 2
I understand you my boyfriend is always on his xbox I never get the attention I need i told him how I felt I can't believe today he left work early to just to play Xbox Im starting to feel lonely I think l will be bitch and not give him pleasure for a while since Xbox is more important then me you should try to set up some rules

Is Nicki Minaj bad for 'American Idol' ?
More News from INQUIRER.net
Nicki Minaj does more than speak her mind. I don't think there has ever been a judge like her in 'American Idol' since it was first launched in 2002. One would think she is a good thing or a welcome change for the show. But ratings have suggested otherwise and feedback from viewers are not in her favor either.
It would be easy to compare her to another outspoken judge like Simon Cowell. But Nicki Minaj isn't as prudent as he was before getting into heated arguments and disagreements with fellow judges and this hasn't translated well with the viewers at home. Here in the Philippines, people still tune in to the show but in the States, it is a different matter.
One of the first things we heard about Nicki Minaj when she debuted on the show was her ongoing feud with Mariah Carey. However, it isn't only Mariah Carey who feels scorn for Minaj. Even some of the contestants have gotten it from Nicki. Talk about being unprofessional. The latest contestant who got into an exchange of words with Minaj was ousted 'American Idol' contestant Devin Velez who felt the wrath of Minaj through her Twitter rant with most of the inflammatory remarks directed at the eliminated Idol contestant. One of the reasons that ignited the Twitter rant from Minaj was because Devin Velez complained that the judges should have saved him from being axed. Devin's reaction didn't sit well with Minaj and she made it clear she didn't stand for it.
It seems even in social networking sites, Minaj can stir up not only controversy but a storm of hate from long time followers of the hit Fox reality show, who they feel is arrogant, cocky, pompous, annoying and immature–and these are just some words that I can mention here. Having followed the show since the season started, I can't help but agree with a few of the negative remarks about her because Nicki Minaj really is one of the most perplexing judges ever on that show. I honestly think the producers of 'American Idol' may have made a mistake in replacing Jennifer Lopez with Nicki Minaj.
It is one thing to bring in ratings through controversies that can be deemed still suitable for the show to gain more viewers. But some of Minaj's antics are no longer justifiable in her position in the show. In my opinion, there should be a certain code of conduct which should be followed by judges in the show. By arriving late for tapings, continually getting into heated arguments with one of your co-judges, and even going on a Twitter tirade against an eliminated contestant, Nicki Minaj is not only asking for criticism from everyone but she is begging for it !
We can enumerate and give a list of some of her misbehavior she has shown lately on 'American Idol' that has been deemed unacceptable– from walking out when she gets into a temper tantrum, hitting on Motown legend Smokey Robinson whether it was just to flirt or be playful, and even her choice of caustic words for Idol contestant Janelle Arthur for a particular performance where she had a duet with fellow Idol contestant Kree Harrison, and other things that are too numerous to mention. All these only reveal the kind of person she truly is. A lot of viewers have even compared her to having the maturity of a high school kid–making faces; giving out uncalled for remarks to some contestants that comes off as bullying; and constantly putting herself on a higher pedestal even before giving her opinion on a contestant's performance.
These are things that even viewers and longtime fans of the show have noticed and they have made it clear that they are unhappy and annoyed by her presence on the show. The novelty and amusement of seeing her there is starting to wear out. Once you tick people off with your behavior, they tend to change the channel and watch maybe another reality show. That right there raises a "red flag" for the producers of 'American Idol'.
Even with all the haters Nicki Minaj has now, there is a part of me that does appreciate what she is doing even with all the ecentric behavior she exhibits. She does tickle the curiosity of some viewers to watch what she might do next which provides an element of unpredictabilty. There are times, though, that she is way too, too much. But what can the haters do if that is who really she is? People can't expect all the judges to act the same and to praise all the contestants without any of the hopefuls feeling the "bite" of criticism from time to time. That would defeat the purpose of having four judges in the first place. Just imagine having four Randy Jacksons?
Gone are the days when you would see the likes of a Paula Abdul who a lot of fans considered too nice and judged so generously. I think the problem is with the fans also. If a judge is too nice, they don't like it. But if there is someone who is like Nicki Minaj in the judging panel, they don't like it either! There is something wrong right there. Fans can't decide what they really want in a judge and I'm not referring to all the fans but a segment only of viewers. Because it is so easy to call people names and go on a rant online when haters hide behind fictitious names. But Nicki Minaj has the guts to say what she wants to say on national television and even in front of a live audience. That takes courage! Either Nicki Minaj is really behaving the way she trruly is, or she certainly knows how to rile up people and hit a nerve with viewers. Regardless of what it really is, she creates controversies but unfortunately, it didn't show in the ratings.
However, Nicki Minaj is still new to the show. She hasn't even finished one whole season yet, but rumors have started to circulate that she may not even be asked to come back for the next season. Ouch! You would think that the producers had an idea of what they were getting themselves into or had thought this over very well, even before deciding to bring her in. But maybe it is because she does act like a real "diva" even as she accuses Mariah Carey of being one. That alone is sufficient enough reason for people to hate her and want her off the show! Because if she can behave that way with Mariah Carey, just imagine what the crew and backstage personnel must be getting from her.
So, while Nicki Minaj continues to become a "headliner" in the wrong way and in a manner that continues to not speak well of her, and with Season 12 halfway near the end, don't expect her to tone down the rhetoric and her knack to spark controversy. But "believe you me," Nicki Minaj will ride this one out to the very end of Season 12 in her own unique and colorful way!

Don't try to use the ty-up lines when you travel.
Docking in an oversized slip is a pain as it is. Get a travel set too. They will last a long time.
Lines don't fail, they chafe. Cover all chafe points with tubular webbing. It is better than hose. Cheap from REI or other climbing stores.
Springlines really help cut down on surging, and they make it possible to keep the boat closer to the dock SAFELY. My wife has arthritis, and so that is a big factor.
Catamarans are always in over-length slips, so I feel your pain. Rig 2 lines, from the outer pilings to the inners, as guides. BIG help in a cross wind, when the bow pilings seem SO far away while you are getting the stern pilings tied. there is simply no good way to control the situation short of single handed. Don't worry if they look uncool. Scratched gel coat and bashed docks are uncool.
Best tip. Spend several nights on the boat, evaluating how she lies as the tide and wind change. It can be both relaxing and informative.
Don't figure you will get it right the first try. That would make you a god. I like to set it up so that when I get in, all I have to do is drop loops through then over cleats, but getting ALL of the lengths right takes time.
Finally, getting under a dock on a low tide is worse than touching a piling. I've seen the aftermath.

Fender announces first ever multi-effects unit - the Mustang Floor
The rear of the Mustang Floor, showing the connectivity options - including one 0.25-inch input jack for the instrument, a send and return loop, MIDI in/out, and two XLR and two 0.25-inch outputs
The new Mustang Floor shares the same LCD display and surrounding button layout as the Mustang III, and it also shares much of the same feature set
Fender has launched its first ever multi-effects unit - the Mustang Floor
Article Summary
We've been treated to a number of Fender stomp boxes over the years - like the classic Fender Blender and BOSS collaborations like the '65 Deluxe Reverb - but the iconic manufacturer has never gathered all its tone tweaking know-how into one big bundle ... until now. The new Mustang Floor brings together dozens of effects, amp modeling and computer interaction into one rather attractive multi-effects unit.

Since the takeover of Cambodia by the Khmer Rouge in 1975, the socialconditions within the country have been understudied. Only recently hasdependable socio-demographic data become available. We use some thesedata to examine living arrangements and other socio-demographicconditions among Cambodia's older population. We compare results to thoserecently found in Thailand and Vietnam, two neighboring countries, inorder to place Cambodia within a regional context. On balance, livingarrangements in Cambodia are similar to those in neighboring countries.Older adults are likely to be living with a child and in a variety of diversearrangements involving different family members. We attempt to get atgender preference for coresident children indirectly by adjusting livingarrangement patterns for Cambodia's unique sex and marital statusstructure. We find a predominance of elders living with never marriedchildren of either sex and a slight daughter preference. Older adults inCambodia may face particular challenges due to the influences of the pastdecades of instability and violence. We conclude our paper with adiscussion of how future research might assist in developing a nationalpolicy for older adults.

Hi there,
I recently posted about my gggrandfather, Anthony Faggiani, who came over from Italy around 1855 and settled in Brooklyn.
I just received his death certificate in the mail, and it seems his mother's maiden name was Facinella. I've never heard the name Facinella--I think I've heard of Facinelli?--is anyone out there familiar with it? I couldn't find anything on Ancestry, the Mormon site, or even Google.
The full name was Rita Facinella.

Have you added or removed any programs, because this can cause problems at times. A number of suggestions have been made already, which could resolve some issues perhaps.
You already use CCleaner, which is a good reliable product. You could try SuperAntiSpyware and perhaps Revo Uninstaller (Revo might find any crumbs left behind from previous removals).there doesn't appear to be any mention of checking the hard-drive for defragmentation. have you done this?.
If you want any downloads, then try http://www.majorgeeks.com

Slow PC
1. Software
a) Clear out all temporary files and folders -- use CCleaner http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
b) Scan for malware spyware and viruses --Free Anti Spyware :- Malwarebytes http://www.malwarebytes.org/ Superantispyware http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html
Free Antivirus software MicroSoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/security/products/mse.aspx Avast http://www.avast.com/en-gb/free-antivirus-download
c) Clean the registry -- Use the tool in Crap Cleaner its very safe and also allows you to back up the registry first.
d) Pagefile (Virtual Memory) -- Right click MY Computer - select properties - Advanced tab - Performance - advanced tab - Virtual memory click change, you can put the page file on a different drive (if you have one), click custom size and set Initial size to one and a half times the amount of memory you have fitted i.e. 512MB memory = set to 768MB, set maximum to double your memory amount i.e. 512MB memory = 1024MB click ok. If your hard drive is full and there is not enough room for the pagefile this can slow down, freeze or even cause the PC to crash (restart).
e) Cut down on the programs that load at start up -- Start - Run type msconfig - start up tab- untick everything except for firewall, antivirus and antispyware
and the services that run in the background. http://www.blackviper.com/
2. Hardware
a) Hard drives /
i) IDE Channels: (Not required if you have SATA drives) Check the transfer rate, you need to have the transfer mode set to DMA not PIO. Right click My Computer - Properties - Hardware - Device Manager - Expand (click the + ) IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers right click Primary Channel - Advanced Settings Tab - If transfer Mode is PIO then follow the instructions at http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=61905 to change.
ii) Check for errors and defrag your hard drives -- My Computer - select drive - properties - tool tab - Error checking / Defragmentation.
ii) If you are using Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 it's a good idea to convert your system drive to the NTFS file system if you have not already. In addition to providing numerous security and data recovery improvements over FAT32 (the file system of choice for Windows 9x/ME and XP Home) it can also speed up your system slightly.
In fact, the only real reason for sticking with the FAT32 file system for any of your data is if you have more than one operating system on your PC and the other OS's can only see FAT32 partitions (as would be the case with Windows 98, for example, which is incapable of reading NTFS data).
To convert your drives to NTFS: Right click on 'my computer' and select 'manage' From the computer management window, expand storage and select 'disk management.' Using the 'file system' column of the upper pane of this window, you can easily check what file system each of your logical drives is using. Make a note of this information. Now open a command prompt window by going to 'start\run' and typing 'cmd' To convert a disk to NTFS, type 'convert (drive letter): /fs:ntfs' So for example, if you were going to convert your C: drive, you would type 'Convert c: /fs:ntfs' at the prompt.
b) Drivers Obtain the newest drivers for your hardware This may seem a bit obvious, but keeping your system's drivers up to date can give both your performance and stability a boost. Video card manufacturers release updates especially often, and these can often give "significant boosts" to gaming performance as video card in question is "optimized."
Don't neglect the other components of your system either. Your motherboard manufacturer may have released newer versions of its Input/output drivers for your board, and sound cards and other peripherals can also benefit from newer software.
c) Memory Your memory could be failing try memtest
Add more physical memory, this of course means opening the "box" and fitting a memory module, make sure you buy one that is suitable for your PC. Crucial http://www.crucial.com/uk/ will guide you through the process of selecting the correct memory. http://support.gateway.com/s/Manuals/Desktops/8509270.pdf for a guide to fitting memory.

Possible causes * Outdated hardware configuration. * Overload startup programs. * Corrupted registry issues. * Remnants of uninstalled applications. * Too many Windows Temporary junks. * Poor security software. A lot of security programs or suites are bloated with software and demand a great deal of system resource and memory.
I'll suggest using CCleaner to check and fix part of the issues and see? It's freeware.

(Steven Lane/The Columbian)Buy this photo
Pat Jollota has been recognized as an authority on Clark County's past.
She has been applauded for her role in making Vancouver what it is today.
But Jollota also is influencing the community's future, as represented by some of its most vulnerable children.
That range of involvement is why Jollota was honored Thursday as 2012 First Citizen.
The Community Foundation for Southwest Washington presents the award annually to a Clark County resident who has modeled exemplary citizenship through actions and service to the community.
In her turn at the microphone, Jollota thanked the community — and not just for the 2012 award.
"This community will take as much as you want to give, and give it back 100 times and more," the author, activist and former Vancouver City Council member said. "You have given me so much more than I have given you."
But there were plenty of people willing to elaborate on Jollota's civic roles.
Before the formal presentation, retired county prosecutor Art Curtis discussed how Jollota helped organize a center to respond to felony child abuse cases.
"She was one of the founders, and she was on the board from its inception," said the namesake of the Arthur D. Curtis Children's Justice Center.
"In the old days, in 1991, we had no dedicated law enforcement" to respond to child abuse, Curtis said. "There was one officer, and if there was a homicide, she went off to work the homicide."
And child abuse is not an insignificant issue, said Mary Blanchette, one of the three speakers who detailed Jollota's range of involvement.
"We are getting more reports than ever: 3,000 last year," said Blanchette, director of the Children's Justice Center. That's eight cases a day, every day of the year.
Brian Willoughby, the spokesman for Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center, highlighted Jollota's role in preserving Clark County's past.
"If it's something about local history, chances are Pat Jollota wrote the book about it -- literally," Willoughby told the crowd, which included several previous First Citizen honorees, at the Hilton Vancouver Washington.
Willoughby described Jollota as wise as well as a historian, and said she can bring both attributes to an issue. Her approach, Willoughby said, is: "We've been through so much; we'll get through this, too -- and we'll get through it more effectively if we allow our current decision-making to be informed by our collective past."
Her willingness to share history isn't limited to words on a page, Willoughby added.
"It's not unusual for her to speak at a breakfast for one group, lunch for another, and dinner for yet another in a single day," Willoughby said.
Finally, former mayor Royce Pollard, the 2010 First Citizen, took the stage with an intriguing prop: an empty chair. Pollard introduced a series of invisible "friends" who shared stories about Jollota's 20-year stint as a city councilor.
The first "speaker" recalled when firefighters needed a piece of thermal imaging equipment, and Jollota helped raise enough money to acquire two of them.
Next, Pollard spoke for a cop: "No council member has ever been more supportive of police than Pat Jollota."
Finally, Pollard "introduced" Esther Short, adding that she sure looked good for someone who was born in 1806.
Esther Short embodied local history, something that Pat Jollota "explains in a way we can all understand who we are and where we came from," Pollard said.

BPI Globe BanKo inks deal with World Bank unit
popular .
The International Finance Corp., the private sector funding arm of the World Bank, has signed an agreement with mobile-based local bank, BPI Globe BanKO, to help smaller businesses afford clean energy and energy-saving systems.
In a statement, the IFC said the advisory agreement with BPI Globe BanKO—jointly owned by Bank of the Philippine Islands, Globe Telecom and Ayala Corp.—made it the third Philippine bank to partner with IFC's Sustainable Energy Finance program.
The SEF program, according to the IFC, stimulates investments in energy efficiency projects by supporting banks in building an energy efficiency financing business. The two other partners under this program are Bank of the Philippine Islands and Banco de Oro Unibank.
The energy efficiency and renewable energy projects are aimed at cutting the cost of electricity and mitigate the adverse effects of climate change.
"We are excited about this program because the smaller businesses and lower-income families are actually paying the highest prices for energy. Through the Sustainable Energy Finance program, we can help them conserve energy and access cheaper and environment-friendly sources of power," said BanKO president Teresita B. Tan.
Under the two-year agreement, IFC and BanKO will determine the demand for smaller renewable energy and energy-efficiency systems that could be financed by the bank, either through direct lending or through its network of non-governmental organization partners.
BanKO targets micro, small and medium enterprises, which account for some 98 percent of total businesses in the country and employ one of every three Filipino workers.

After splitting their last two games — a 7-4 setback to Mason on Friday and a 10-0 win over Menard last night — the Harper Longhorns' varsity baseball team will continue through its district schedule by traveling to Ozona on Friday.
The junior varsity game will start at 5 p.m. followed by the varsity contest at 7 p.m.
Harper will then move on to Eldorado on Friday, April 4, for a 4:30 p.m. varsity contest. The JV squads will face off after the varsity game.
Harper 10, Menard 0
Guy Stevenson went 4-for-4, scored once and knocked in another run to help the 'Horns defeat Menard 10-0 Tuesday evening on the Harper field.
The game was ended after five frames due to the 10-run mercy rule.
Other multiple-hit players for HHS were Easton Hansen (2-for-4, three runs batted in and came home twice) and Lane Fajkus (2-for-3, scored two times).
Harper's varsity softball team bats went crazy as the Ladyhorns scored 33 runs in its last two victories, defeating Comfort 12-2 at home on Friday then besting Mason on the road 21-3 Tuesday night.
The 20th ranked Ladyhorns will go on the road for its next two games, traveling to Junction on Friday for a 6 p.m. match-up (with the junior varsity squads facing off following the first contest), the moving on to Medina on Friday, April 4, for a 5 p.m. game. There will be no JV action that evening.
Harper 21, Mason 3
After trading three runs each in the opening frame, the visiting Harper Ladyhorns exploded from 18 runs in the second, third and fourth innings to come away from Mason 21-3 Tuesday evening.
Of the 16 hits hammered out by Harper, two apiece came from the bats of Shelby Koenig, Kendall Baethge, Courtney Ahrns, Morgan Baethge, Julia Scott and Megan Myers.

Three number one positions were posted by the Heritage High School's various track and field squads during Thursday's annual Harper Longhorn Relays.
Chad Johnson captured the top spot in both the high jump (6'2") and the 100 meter hurdles (14.3"). Meanwhile, Jamie Hoermann of the Heritage JV girls' team bested the field in the pole vaulting event with a height of 7'6".
"This was the most competitive meet of the season for us — lots of schools with really good athletes," said Heritage head coach Brad Sultemeier. "It was very good for us to see and experience, and Harper always runs off a good meet."
Fredericksburg High School (FHS) golf team member Kaytlen James has received the Southern Texas Professional Golf Association (STPGA) "2014 Junior Golfer of the Year Award."
James was recognized and presented a plaque Feb. 17 during the STPGA President's Dinner and Awards Ceremony at the Miramont Country Club in College Station.
Each year, the STPGA chooses a young lady its members feel is the epitome of strong academic and social character and who has a high regard for the ideals upon which golf is founded, a spokesman said. She must also exemplify excellent sportsmanship.

Finding the greens favorable, the Fredericksburg High School (FHS) varsity girls' golf team has topped its past two tournaments and is now preparing to join with the boys' teams in hosting the FHS Invitational next week.
The girls are on the schedule to play Tuesday, March 25, while the varsity and junior varsity boys will take to the tees Wednesday, March 26.
Rounds both days will start at 9 a.m. at the Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Golf Course.
FHS Girls
Playing yesterday, March 18, the Billies tallied a score of 367 on the Flying L Golf Course to take the Bandera Invitational title.
Coming in second was Kerrville Tivy's varsity girls, with a combined score of 414.
Facing some "heavy hitters," Fredericksburg High School's varsity tennis team will find itself in a warm-up for district as it hosts the Hill Country Championships this Thursday through Saturday, March 20-22.
Rounds start each day at 8:30 a.m. on courts at the Fredericksburg High School (FHS) campus and at Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Park.
Posing a challenge on local courts will be the likes of reputable 5A programs, including San Antonio Marshall and San Antonio O'Connor, said FHS Coach Randall King.
"We'll also see all our usual district players, except Canyon Lake and Navarro, at this tournament," he said.
Other schools expected to compete include Ingram, Mason, Junction, Bandera, Smithson Valley, Boerne High, Kerrville Tivy, Taft, Hondo, Wimberley, Llano, Marble Falls, Rocksprings, Holmes, Comfort, Menard and Brady.
After a week off of competition for Spring Break, the Fredericksburg High School boys' and girls' track teams will host the 48th annual Carlin Wicker Fredericksburg Relays, Saturday, beginning with the 3200 meter run and field events at 9 a.m. at the FHS Stadium.
"We should have every athlete in our program participate in the home meet this weekend, which will be a good evaluation of all athletes in their events," head coach Dan Aldrich said. "Although only three athletes per event can point or medal at the meet, we will have every kid in our program compete in their events so that they all have an opportunity to compete for future spots the next couple of weeks."
Running finals at the meet will begin at 1:30 p.m.
Jumping out to an early lead in District 27-3A play, the Fredericksburg High School varsity softball team (14-9, 1-0) defeated Canyon Lake on the road 12-5 Tuesday after finishing 3-4 at the San Marcos tournament over the weekend.
The Billies will host Boerne Friday before travelling to Navarro Tuesday night. First pitch in both contests is slated for 7 p.m.
FHS 12, Canyon Lake 5
Fredericksburg opened District 27-3A play Tuesday night with a 12-5 road victory over Canyon Lake.
"I was very happy with our first district outing being that it was on the road against solid pitching," head coach Mitchel Etzel said. "It is always good to get that first district win under our belts."
Sitting at 1-3 after four District 27-3A contests, the Fredericksburg High School varsity baseball team will host Bandera Friday and Canyon Lake Tuesday. First pitch in both games is slated for 7 p.m.
Last night, FHS fell at Wimberley 11-1 after dropping a 5-1 decision at Navarro Friday.
Wimberley 11, FHS 1
The Billies fell on the road to Wimberley 11-1 Tuesday night.
"We are struggling at the plate. Once again, we left too many runners on base," head coach Derrick Dietrich said. "We had our chances the first three innings to scratch a run or two across but couldn't get it done. We are getting people on base but that does us no good if we can't get them across the plate."
Fredericksburg High School varsity girls' soccer sent head coach John Brock into retirement on a positive note as they closed out their season Tuesday with a 3-0 shutout over Medina Valley.
Brock spent five years of his coaching and teaching career in Fredericksburg.
Against Medina Valley, Taylor Husfeld, Jujey Cisneros and Lucy Olvera-Penaloza each scored a goal for FHS.
Taylor Kitchens allowed no goals to preserve the shutout.
FHS ended its season at 10-12-1 overall. They scored 36 goals on the season while allowing 46.

"Kennedy talked more about separation of church and state, because that was the attack that was launched against him. Romney's problem is different in the sense that people see his Mormonism as exotic or esoteric, and he has to knock that down without being too explicit about what Mormon doctrine really is," says Shaun Casey, associate professor of Christian ethics at Wesley Theological Seminary. More
Polygamy was outlawed by the Mormon Church more than 100 years ago, but it has survived in pockets, largely isolated on the edge of Mormon society and the law. The recent trial and conviction of Warren Jeffs shed some light on the practices of the polygamist group he led, called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The Jeffs case has galvanized efforts to rehabilitate children leaving these communities who number anywhere from 600 to 1,000. Correspondent Lucky Severson provides a glimpse into their lives. More
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — the Mormons — barred African-Americans from full membership until 1978. Since then, the church has increased its outreach to African-American communities, but has yet to repudiate its old teachings that blacks were cursed by God as descendents of Cain or Ham. More
Missionary work is something of a rite of passage in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Over the course of 18 months to two years, young men and women will work 16 hours a day, six days a week. On average, each one will convert ten persons during that period. But with 60,000 missionaries in the field, that is enough to produce 300,000 new converts a year. More
A century and a half ago, Brigham Young led 600 Mormon settlers to the Salt Lake Valley and predicted it would blossom as a rose. Today, the valley is headquarters to what may be the fastest-growing church in the U.S., blossoming so fast it is continuously redefining itself. More

At Far West Fiber's sorting center in Hillsboro Tuesday, workers were busy -- bundles of paper were going out the door on their way to being recycled.
But local agencies are concerned because of what isn't coming in.
"We can do better with recycling. We don't like to be treading water like this," Specialist Mary Lou Perry said.
Perry, with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality is monitoring recycling numbers closely. Her agency recently released it's recycling statistics for 2007.
DEQ says those numbers are going the wrong way.
Statewide, the percentage of waste that was recycled in 2007 was down a smidge to around 47 percent, which is below the state's 2009 goal of fifty-percent.
And it was a similar situation in the metro area - recycling numbers were down year-over-year to 55 percent -- and below the 2009 goal. That goal is 64 percent.
"We may have hit a plateau. I don't want to stay we're stalled out, I would say regrouping," said Perry.
DEQ says new programs are coming online that will help boost recycling efforts.
The new Oregon E-cycle program will make getting rid of electronic waste a bit easier. And the bottle bill will be expanded to include plastic bottles next year.
And there's Portland's new recycling roll carts.
Jeff Murray said "recently the metro region has pretty much changed to roll carts, and since then we believe we've seen a boost in the past several months."
Murray knows the recycling business - he's been working in it for more than thirty years.
And he says as important as recycling is, that's not the only thing to look at.
"We need to put a lot more emphasis, I believe, moving forward, on how much waste reduction is actually happening," said Murray.

I am working on a CMS platform with limited access to the template files and want to try and control some of the layout with pseudo class but no luck yet. Can anyone see what is wrong with this structure and why my pseudo class is being ignored?

more stuff
and i am trying something like this
#main .block {border: 1px solid blue}
#main .block:first-child {border: 1px solid red}
so with this example I would think the stuff block would have a red border and more stuff would have a blue but it is all just blue.
Thanks for any help with this.
