Camille and Carrie are hosting a "Parade of Quilts", meaning you have to show your first and last finished quilt. So here goes nothin':
This was actually my second quilt (this was my first) but it was the first that I basted and quilted myself. (photo skills have definitely improved….yikes) There's a tutorial for this one over on the sidebar.------------>
Here's my latest finished quilt……for the next hour anyways.
Man I've learned a lot since this quilt. But most of all I think I've learned to relax a little bit when I'm quilting. It always turns out better if I do. Oh and for the record since I said I'd tell you….I don't like this gripper thing, it really bugs me. I like having my hand right next to where I'm cutting, and if I lose a finger it was all for a good cause.

Cole Miller turned heel on Saturday night in Manchester.
After defeating Andy Ogle on the preliminary card of UFC Fight Night 30, Miller was given the opportunity to talk about the victory. Instead, Miller, obviously a little fired up, stood in the center of the Octagon with UFC commentator Joe Rogan and said:
About halfway through his speech, the U.K. crowd began to shower Miller with boos. Those boos followed Miller as he jogged from the cage off to the dressing room.I don't know what's up with theses European fighters. Ross Pearson couldn't beat me, Andy Ogle couldn't beat me, Dennis Siver can't beat me, and you know what, neither can Colin McGoober. So, bring it.
As heel turns go, the Internet seemed to give Miller mixed reviews. Maybe if he had closed out with a microphone drop or used a better nickname for Conor McGregor he would have won the Internet. Who knows?
Miller (20-8) has been with the UFC since June 2007, running up a promotional record of 9-6. Miller has been fighting as a featherweight with the UFC for his last five fights, going 2-3 in the process.
Miller's in cage rant got the attention of the fans and media, but the member of American Top Team had more to say after the fight, telling Fighters Only why he singled out McGregor or McGoober:
Miller also seemed irritated by the push the UFC is giving McGregor:I am not trying to say he is a bad fighter or anything like that, I'm just saying that he can't walk into the UFC, win a decision over a 21-year-old kid like Max Holloway and then talk shit about MY team mates, American Top Team guys like Nik Lentz and Dustin Poirier.
McGregor has been the focus of many fighters in the UFC's featherweight division for precisely the reason Miller points out; the UFC is pushing McGregor as the next star. A fight with McGregor receives a tremendous amount of attention. That fact was evident at UFC Fight Night 26.The UFC is trying to buy a country, get all these fans in Ireland and they've got a good fighter in Conor McGregor, everybody is behind him so they've turned him into a show-pony. You see him everywhere, they fly him out to every event, you see him there looking all GQ.
McGregor, fighting on the preliminary card of that event against Max Holloway was given his own open workout before the event, present at almost all of the pre and post-fight press events, and given a walkout that is usually reserved for only main event fighters.
McGregor defeated Holloway by unanimous decision on that night in Boston, but paid a price in the process, suffering an ACL tear during the fight. The injury required surgery, which McGregor underwent in September.
The surgery will delay McGregor's return McGregor's return to the Octagon, but it has not slowed down the hype train or reduced the attention the 25-year-old fighter is getting from the UFC or potential opponents.
McGregor's return date has not been set, but suffice it to say, the UFC will not have a difficult time finding a willing opponent. On Saturday, Cole Miller added his name to that ever-growing list.

Plan Information Rights Management in Office 2013
Applies to: Office 365 ProPlus, Office 2013
Topic Last Modified: 2014-06-06
Summary: Use Information Rights Management (IRM) in Office 2013 to specify permissions for accessing and using sensitive documents and messages.
Audience: IT Professionals
This article contains a summary of IRM technology and how it works in Office applications, together with links to more information about how to set up and install the required servers and software to implement IRM in Office 2013.
This article is part of the Roadmap for Office 2013 identity, authentication, and authorization for IT Professionals. Use the roadmap as a starting point for articles, downloads, posters, and videos that help you assess Office 2013 identity.
Are you looking for help about individual Office 2013 applications? You can find this information by searching on Office.com.
In this article:
Information Rights Management (IRM) is a persistent file-level technology from Microsoft. It uses permissions and authorization to help prevent sensitive information from being printed, forwarded, or copied by unauthorized people. After permission for a document or message is restricted by using this technology, the usage restrictions travel with the document or email message as part of the contents of the file.
The ability to create content or email messages that have restricted permission by using IRM is available in Office Professional Plus 2013, and in the stand-alone versions of Excel 2013, Outlook 2013, PowerPoint 2013, InfoPath 2013, and Word 2013. IRM content that is created in Office 2013 can be viewed in Office 2003, Office 2007, Office 2010, or Office 2013.
For more information about IRM and Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) features that are supported in Office 2013, Office 2010, Office 2007, and Office 2003, see AD RMS and Microsoft Office Deployment Considerations.
IRM support in Office 2013 helps organizations and knowledge workers address two fundamental needs:
Restricted permission for sensitive information IRM helps prevent sensitive information from unauthorized access and reuse. Organizations rely on firewalls, logon security-related measures, and other network technologies to help protect sensitive intellectual property. A basic limitation of using these technologies is that legitimate users who have access to the information can share it with unauthorized people. This could lead to a potential breach of security policies.
Information privacy, control, and integrity Information workers often work with confidential or sensitive information. By using IRM, employees do not have to depend on the discretion of other people to ensure that sensitive materials remain inside the company. IRM eliminates users' ability to forward, copy, or print confidential information by helping to disable those functions in documents and messages that use restricted permission.
For information technology (IT) managers, IRM helps enable the enforcement of existing corporate policies about document confidentiality, workflow, and email retention. For CEOs and security officers, IRM reduces the risk of having key company information fall into the hands of the wrong people, whether by accident, thoughtlessness, or malicious intent.
Office users apply permissions to messages or documents by using options on the ribbon; for example, by using the Restrict Editing command, under Info, Protect Document. The protection options that are available are based on permission policies that you customize for your organization. Permission policies are groups of IRM rights that you package together to apply as one policy. Office 2013 also provides several predefined groups of rights, such as Do Not Forward in Outlook 2013.
|To IRM protect a document in Office 2013, you have to have an on-premises RMS server or Office 365 with RMS Online. You can still open IRM protected content created with a Microsoft Account in earlier versions of Office and edit those documents if you have permission, but you can't create new protected documents by using a Microsoft Account.
Enabling IRM in your organization typically requires access to a rights management server that runs Windows Rights Management Services (RMS) for Windows Server 2003, or Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) for Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, or Windows Server 2012 R2. It is also possible to use IRM by using an individual's Microsoft account to authenticate permissions, as described later in this article. The permissions are enforced by using authentication, typically by using Active Directory directory service (AD DS). A Microsoft account can be used to authenticate and grant permission if Active Directory is not implemented.
Users do not have to have a Microsoft account to read protected documents and messages. For users who run Windows XP or earlier versions, the Excel viewer and Word viewer enable Windows users who have the correct permission to read some documents that have restricted permission, without using Office software. Users who run Windows XP or earlier versions can use Outlook Web App or the Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer to read email messages that have restricted permissions, without using Outlook software. This functionality is already available for users who run, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Vista Service Pack 1, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2. The Active Directory Rights Management Services client software is included with these operating systems.
In Office 2013, organizations can create the permissions policies that appear in Office applications. For example, you might define a permission policy named Company Confidential, which specifies that documents or email messages that use the policy can only be opened by users inside the company domain. There is no limit to the number of permission policies that can be created.
|SharePoint Foundation supports use of IRM on documents that are stored in document libraries. By using IRM, you can control which actions users can take on documents when they open them from libraries in SharePoint Foundation. This differs from IRM applied to documents stored on client computers, where the owner of a document can choose which rights to assign to each user of the document. For more information about how to use IRM with document libraries, see Document library planning (SharePoint Foundation 2010).
With AD RMS on Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2012, users can share rights-protected documents between companies that have a federated trust relationship. For more information, see Active Directory Rights Management Services Overview and Federating AD RMS.
Also with AD RMS, Exchange Server 2013 offers IRM-protected email functionality including AD RMS protection for Unified Messaging voice mail messages and Outlook protection rules that can automatically apply IRM-protection to messages in Outlook 2013 before they leave the Outlook client. For more information, see What's New in Exchange 2013 and Understanding Information Rights Management.
For more information about Active Directory Rights Management Services.
In a typical installation, Windows Server 2003 that is deployed with RMS or Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, or Windows Server 2012 R2 that is deployed with AD RMS enables use of IRM permissions with Office 2013. If an RMS server is not configured on the same domain as the users, users' Microsoft accounts can be used to authenticate permission, instead of Active Directory. Users must have access to the Internet to connect to the Microsoft account servers.
You can use Microsoft accounts when you assign permissions to users who need access to the contents of a restricted file. When you use Microsoft accounts for authentication, each user must specifically be granted permission to a file. Groups of users cannot be assigned permission to access a file.
Applying IRM permissions to documents or email messages requires the following:
Access to RMS for Windows Server 2003, or AD RMS for Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, or Windows Server 2012 R2, to authenticate permissions. Or, authentication can be managed by using the Microsoft account service on the Internet.
Rights Management (RM) client software. RM client software is included in Windows Vista and later versions or available as an add-in for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
Microsoft Office 2003, 2007 Microsoft Office system, Office 2010, or Office 2013. Only specific versions of Office enable users to create IRM permissions.
Windows RMS or AD RMS manages licensing and other administrative server functions that work with IRM to provide rights management. An RMS-enabled client program, such as Office 2013, lets users create and view rights-protected content.
To learn more about how RMS works and how to install and configure an RMS server, see, Active Directory Rights Management Services.
RM client software is included in Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. Separate installation and configuration of the necessary RMS client software is required on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 to interact with RMS or AD RMS on the computer that is running Windows or the Microsoft account service on the Internet.
Download the RMS Client Service Pack to enable users on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 to run applications that restrict permission based on RMS technologies.
As in Office 2003, Office 2007 and Office 2010, Office 2013 includes predefined groups of rights that users can apply to documents and messages, such as Read and Change in Word 2013, Excel 2013, and PowerPoint 2013. You can also define custom IRM permissions policies to provide different packages of IRM rights for users in your organization.
You create and manage rights policy templates by using the administration site on your RMS or AD RMS server. For information about how to create, configure, and post custom permissions policy templates, see AD RMS Rights Policy Templates Deployment Step-by-Step Guide. For Exchange Server 2010 Outlook protection rules, see Understanding Outlook Protection Rules.
The rights that you can include in permissions policy templates for Office 2013 are listed in the following sections.
Each IRM permissions right that is listed in the following table can be enforced by Office 2013 applications that are configured on a network that includes a server that runs RMS or AD RMS.
IRM permissions rights
|IRM right
Full Control
Gives the user every right that is listed in this table, and the right to change permissions that are associated with content. Expiration does not apply to users who have Full Control.
Allows the user to open IRM content. This corresponds to Read Access in the Office 2013 user interface.
Allows the user to configure the IRM content.
Allows the user to save a file.
Allows the user to make a copy of any part of a file and paste that part of the file into the work area of another application.
Allows the user to save content in another file format by using the Save As command. Depending on the application that uses the file format that you select, the content might be saved without protection.
Allows the user to print the contents of a file.
Allow Macros
Allows the user to run macros against the contents of a file.
Allows an email recipient to forward an IRM email message and to add or remove recipients from the To: and Cc: lines.
Allows email recipients to reply to an IRM email message.
Reply All
Allows email recipients to reply to all users on the To: and Cc: lines of an IRM email message.
View Rights
Gives the user permission to view the rights associated with a file. Office ignores this right.
Office 2013 provides the following predefined groups of rights that users can choose from when they create IRM content. The options are available in the Permission dialog box for Word 2013, Excel 2013, and PowerPoint 2013. In the Office application, select the File tab, choose Info, choose the Protect Document button, select Restrict Access, and then choose from the options listed, which are populated by the Digital Rights Management server template. The following table lists the predefined permission groups.
Predefined read/change permissions groups
|IRM predefined group
Users who have Read permission have View rights.
Users who have Change permission have rights to View, Edit, Extract, and Save.
In Outlook 2013, users can select the following predefined group of rights when they create an email item. To access the option from the email item, choose File, Info, and then Set Permissions. Choose from the listed options, which are populated by the Digital Rights Management server template. The following table lists the predefined email permission groups.
Predefined "Do not forward" group
|IRM predefined group
Do Not Forward
In Outlook, the author of an IRM email message can apply Do Not Forward permission to users on the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: lines. This permission includes the View, Edit, Reply, and Reply All rights.
Other IRM permissions can be specified in Word 2013, Excel 2013, and PowerPoint 2013. From Info, Protect Document, choose Editing Restrictions. For even more restriction options, choose Restrict permission at the bottom of the Restrict Editing panel. For example, users can specify an expiration date, restrict other users from printing or copying content, and so on.
By default, Outlook enables messages to be viewed by a browser that supports Rights Management.
When the rights policy templates are complete, post them to a server share where all users can access the templates or copy them to a local folder on the user's computer. The IRM policy settings that are available in the Office Group Policy template (Office15.admx) file can be configured to point to the location where the rights policy templates are stored (either locally or on an available server share). For information, see Office 2013 Administrative Template files (ADMX, ADML) and Office Customization Tool.
You can lock down many settings to customize IRM by using the Office Group Policy template (Office15.admx). You can also use the Office Customization Tool (OCT) to configure default settings, which enables users to configure the settings. In addition, there are IRM configuration options that can only be configured by using registry key settings.
The settings that you can configure for IRM in Group Policy and by using the OCT are listed in the following table. In Group Policy, these settings are under User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Office 2013\Manage Restricted Permissions. The OCT settings are in corresponding locations on the Modify user settings page of the OCT.
IRM settings for Group Policy or the OCT
|IRM option
Active Directory time-out for querying one entry for group expansion
Specify the time-out value for querying an Active Directory entry when you expand a group.
Additional permissions request URL
Specify the location where a user can obtain more information about how to access the IRM content.
Allow users with earlier versions of Office to read with browsers…
Enable users without Office 2013 to view rights-that are managed content by using the Rights Management Add-in for Windows Internet Explorer.
Always expand groups in Office when restriction permission for documents
Group name is automatically expanded to display all the members of the group when users apply permissions to a document by selecting a group name in the Permission dialog box.
Always required users to connect to verify permission
Users who open a rights-managed Office document must connect to the Internet or local area network to confirm by RMS, or through their Microsoft account, that they have a valid IRM license.
Never allow users to specify groups when restricting permission for documents
Return an error when users select a group in the Permission dialog box: ''You cannot publish content to Distribution Lists. You may only specify email addresses for individual users.''
Prevent users from changing permission on rights managed content
If enabled, users can consume content that already includes IRM permissions, but cannot apply IRM permissions to new content nor configure the rights on a document.
Turn off Information Rights Management user interface
Disable all Rights Management-related options within the user interface of all Office applications.
For more information about how to customize these settings, see Configure Information Rights Management in Office 2013.
The settings that you can configure for IRM in the registry are listed in the following tables.
The following IRM registry settings are located in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\DRM.
IRM registry key options
|Registry entry
1 = The box is checked.
0 = The box is cleared.
This registry key toggles the default value of the Users can request additional permissions from check box.
0 = Outlook is used
1 = Outlook is not used
The Permission dialog box uses Outlook to validate email addresses that are entered in that dialog box. This causes an instance of Outlook to be started when restricting permissions. Disable the option by using this key.
The following IRM registry setting is located in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\DRM\LicenseServers. There is no corresponding Group Policy setting.
IRM registry setting for license servers
|Registry entry
Key/Hive. Contains DWORD values that have the name of a license server.
Set to the server URL. If the value of the DWORD is 1, Office will not prompt to obtain a license, it will only get the license.
If the value is zero or there is no registry entry for that server, Office prompts for a license.
Example: If 'http://contoso.com/_wmcs/licensing = 1' is a value for this setting, a user who tries to obtain a license from that server to open a rights-managed document will not be prompted for a license.
The following IRM registry setting is located in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Security. There is no corresponding Group Policy setting.
IRM registry settings for security
|Registry entry
1 = The file metadata is encrypted.
0 = The metadata is stored in plaintext. The default value is 0.
Specify whether to encrypt all metadata that is stored inside a rights-managed file.
For Open XML Formats (for example, docx, xlsx, pptx, and so on), users can decide to encrypt the Office metadata that is stored inside a rights-managed file. Users can encrypt all Office metadata. This includes hyperlink references, or leave content as not encrypted so other applications can access the data.
Users can choose to encrypt the metadata by setting a registry key. You can set a default option for users by deploying the registry setting. There is no option for encrypting some of the metadata: all metadata is encrypted or none is encrypted.
In addition, the DRMEncryptProperty registry setting does not determine whether non-Office client metadata storage, such as the storage that is created in SharePoint 2013, is encrypted.
This encryption choice does not apply to Microsoft Office 2003 or other previous file formats. Office 2013 handles earlier formats in the same manner as it does in Office 2007 and Microsoft Office 2003.
In Outlook 2013, users can create and send email messages that have restricted permission to help prevent messages from being forwarded, printed, or copied and pasted. Office 2013 documents, workbooks, and presentations that are attached to messages that have restricted permission are also automatically restricted.
As an Outlook administrator, you can configure several options for IRM email, such as disabling IRM or configuring local license caching.
The following IRM settings and features can be useful when you configure rights-managed email messaging:
Configure automatic license caching for IRM.
Help enforce an email message expiration period.
Do not use Outlook for validating email addresses for IRM permissions.
|To disable IRM in Outlook, you must disable IRM for all Office applications. There is no separate option to disable IRM only in Outlook.
You can lock down most settings to customize IRM for Outlook by using the Outlook Group Policy template (Outlk15.admx) or the Office Group Policy template (Office15.admx). Or, you can configure default settings for most options by using the Office Customization Tool (OCT), which enables users to configure the settings. The OCT settings are in corresponding locations on the Modify user settings page of the OCT.
Outlook IRM options
|IRM option
Microsoft Outlook 2013\Miscellaneous
Do not download rights permissions license information for IRM email during Exchange folder sync
Enable to prevent license information from being cached locally. If enabled, users must connect to the network to retrieve license information to open rights-managed email messages.
Microsoft Outlook 2010\Outlook Options\Email Options\ Advanced Email Options
When sending a message
To enforce email expiration, enable and enter the number of days before a message expires. The expiration period is enforced only when users send rights-managed email and then the message cannot be accessed after the expiration period.
For more information about how to customize these settings, see Configure Information Rights Management in Office 2013.
The Permission dialog box uses Outlook to validate email addresses that are entered in that dialog box. This causes an instance of Outlook to start when permissions are restricted. You can disable this option by using the registry key that is listed in the following table. There is no corresponding Group Policy or OCT setting for this option.
The following IRM registry setting is located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\DRM.

Yes I followed a guide changing 42 to 07 although the picture and the actual looked a bit different. So here I am looking to reinstall windows cause it won't boot due to some blue screeen that flashes. I wanted to install Win8 dual booted with Win7. Dynamic disk preventing me from this and no software to convert. So at least I'm getting all my data back and will reformat reinstall following. I'll leave off the HP Ware as much as possible.
I have done this successfully in the past. It doesn't require conversion. You need to change the partition type ID (cannot remember what it is from the top of my head) to NTFS (which I am assuming that you are using. I believe the ID for NTFS is 07.
I have had success in doing this using CFDISK and FDISK on SystemRescueCD.
I managed to copy over some really important files so far, just waiting on the larger save. Most of it I probably won't need but we'll see.
Do you think you suggestion will fix what I discribed? so I don't have to reinstall?

ONE OF THE BEST things about living in Portland is the ease with which we can escape the city for more rugged delights: a peak-packed panorama in the Gorge, a bird's-eye view of the beach, a high alpine meadow strewn with nature's floral confetti. But maximizing those out-your-back-door adventures requires some serious at-your-kitchen-table homework. So we paged through guidebooks*, consulted local experts, and wore a little leather off our own boots to bring you these thirty hiking and biking trails, all easily drivable in a day. By our count, there are about thirty weekend days left before the rain returns this fall—and we've got a ready-made adventure for every one.
Springwater Corridor
Biking Trail
Moderate This commuter superhighway between Portland and Boring isn't just for the spandex species. The well-groomed path also provides frequent encounters with woodland denizens like woodpeckers and galloping white-tailed deer. In fact, as the trail (a former railroad route) plays leapfrog with Johnson Creek, crossing the water more than ten times, it passes through at least three different habitats, including Powell Butte Nature Park's high meadows and Oaks Bottom's low-lying wetlands, where you just might see the Rose City's official bird, the great blue heron. —Kaitlin Johnson
ROUND TRIP: Up to 42 miles DISTANCE FROM DOWNTOWN: 2 miles PACK: Rubber to the Road; Springwater Corridor map at portlandonline.com/parks
Vancouver LakeBiking Trail
Easy Technically a road ride, this route along Lower River Road from Esther Short Park nearly to Campbell Lake whips around Vancouver Lake before forking off to follow the Columbia River's verdant shoreline. You may have to share the road with a few cars for the first five miles (and aggro cyclists going all Lance Armstrong on one of the metro area's time-trial courses), but after that, your only companions will likely be casual riders seeking out the flat terrain or resident waterfowl, such as great egrets and peregrine falcons, cruising overhead. —KJ
ROUND TRIP: Up to 26 miles DISTANCE FROM DOWNTOWN: 15 miles PACK: Rubber to the Road; Frenchman's Bar Ride map at vancouverbicycleclub.com
Oxbow Regional Park
Hiking Trail
Moderate Before Grizzly Adams laid down his rifle and began communing with furry forest pals, the bearded mountain man could track anything under the sun. If you've ever wanted to acquire such a skill, Oxbow Regional Park is the perfect playground. Bisected by the snaking Sandy River, the beachlike banks of the 1,200-acre park reveal prints from the multitude of mammals who live here, among them black-tailed deer, flying squirrels, beavers, and red foxes (you might even spot some cubs this month). The park offers a class in animal tracking if you want an expert to help you bone up. Just don't expect to run into Ben, Adams's ursine sidekick, on your hike; grizzlies don't roam through Oxbow, just the occasional black bear. And we're OK with that. —Kasey Cordell
ROUND TRIP: Up to 15 miles DISTANCE FROM DOWNTOWN: 20 miles PACK: Wild in the City; Oxbow Regional Park map at oregonmetro.gov; $5 parking fee
Macleay Trail
Hiking Trail
Easy Nestled in Forest Park, the Macleay Trail offers a walking tour of the city's signature flora and fauna. The hike traces the banks of Balch Creek, home to native cutthroat trout and Pacific giant salamanders; and less than half a mile up the trail, hikers can marvel at one of Portland's 282 (and counting) Heritage Trees—a 242-foot Douglas fir thought to be the tallest urban tree in America. Sunday strollers may opt to turn around at the Audubon Society, where injured owls and hawks are cared for, but those wanting to work off the eggs Benedict from Besaw's on nearby NW 23rd Avenue can continue on the Wildwood Trail to tranquil Holman Meadow. —Brian M. Barker
ROUND TRIP: 2 miles DISTANCE FROM DOWNTOWN: 2 miles PACK: 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Portland; The Hiking and Running Guide to Forest Park, 10-map set
Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge
Hiking Trail
Easy It seems that every time we visit this popular Sellwood preserve, we bump into someone we know. But antique hounds and Southeast locals aren't the only Portlanders who flock to this inner-city refuge along the Willamette—so do about 150 species of birds. Amid the woodlands at the base of a bluff, you'll see (or at least hear) sparrows, wrens, and black-capped chickadees, while blue herons and cormorants stand like reeds in the marshland near Oaks Amusement Park. And in the parking lot, well, you just might see your neighbor. —KC

Tryon Creek State Natural Area
Hiking Trail
Easy Lewis & Clark College biology students often study the plants and animals in this 670-acre recreation area. And what a laboratory: blooms of Indian plum and salmonberry crop up along Tryon's twenty or so crisscrossing trails. The region's waters also provide year-round habitat for steelhead trout, and some fifty bird species chirp from the branches of bigleaf maples and red alders. Sharp eyes may even locate northern saw-whet owls near the park's nature center, where a handmade roost hangs. Sure beats a day in a lecture hall. —BMB

His iPhone rings on a Friday afternoon. It's perilously close to Shabbat, but the rabbi answers.
"Rabbi Zucky," says a sergeant from the Portland Police Bureau, "one of the horses is very sick. The vet says there's nothing to be done. Can you come?"
Rabbi Zuckerman checks the Harley-Davidson clock on his office wall, with its pictures of vintage bikes in place of numbers. It revs on the hour.
"It's nearly Shabbat," he says. "I won't drive. Can you pick me up?"
"On our way."
Once, while living on an Israeli kibbutz, a young Arthur "Zucky" Zuckerman watched a traumatized cow and calf die needlessly because those in charge wouldn't break the laws of the Sabbath and call for veterinary help. The sound of that cow mooing tears at him still. The young Jew swore he'd never let something like that happen again. Today, he would be there for his officers as they faced this heartbreaking loss.
Rabbi Zuckerman is one of the Portland Police Bureau's chaplains, the first rabbi to hold the post in the history of the bureau, not to mention its one and only former Israeli soldier. He's also a pescetarian, a pool shark, and, in case you need one, an instructor in WMD preparedness as certified by the Department of Homeland Security. He's observed a mock sarin gas attack on the Israeli Parliament and helped strategize Los Angeles County's distribution of cipro during an anthrax attack exercise.
Prepared for anything, Rabbi Zucky never frets.
"Worry is like a rocking chair," he says, a lot. "I don't worry. I do."
This mix of true grit and Talmudic smarts is about to come in mighty handy. Like the police bureau, his congregation needs a rabbi who can do more than pray. The century-old Congregation Shaarie Torah is facing a problem likely to demand all the mettle Zuckerman can muster: obsolescence.
For 108 years, the synagogue has survived more than occasional rumors of its own demise. Now they are back with a vengeance, and some worry Shaarie Torah has too much stacked against it to survive. Cash is not the problem, at least in the short term. The challenges are more complex. While some Portland synagogues brag that they're not your grandparents' synagogue, that's exactly what Shaarie Torah is—your bubbe's shul. The once-proud modernist building on NW 25th Avenue feels ponderous and uninspiring, its interior a tired study in dark hallways, dropped ceilings, and cold light. The intimate sanctuary often has many vacant seats; the balcony's empty. A little more than a 15 years ago, Shaarie Torah was home to 457 families; today, that number is 259. Two-thirds of its members are older than 65, arguably the oldest demographic among the city's temples.
"I think Shaarie Torah could go in one of several directions," predicts Marshal Spector, a devoted congregant and well-known leader in Portland's Jewish community. "It could thrive with Zucky and continue to provide an option as a smaller, warm, and flexible traditional synagogue. A lot of families desire that. But I also think it's possible that Shaarie Torah may not be around in five years, and that would be heartbreaking."
"It would be devastating for us," says congregant Melissa Mills-Koffel, whose oldest child, Aedan, just celebrated his bar mitzvah. "We have a 3-year-old and a 4-year-old, and we're hoping they'll come up the ranks, too. All the things we get there, we'd never get anywhere else. Shaarie Torah is an extension of our family."
For the rabbi in the purple prayer shawl, it's time to rev up and do.
Until the brothers Blumauer arrived in Portland by stagecoach in 1851, nobody worried much about synagogues. Other Jewish pioneers had come and gone, but the Blumauers were the first to stay. The five Haas brothers followed, then Mrs. Weinshank, who ran the boardinghouse near the river for nice Jewish men. (To her, they would always be boys.) In a handful of years, the growing community started Congregation Beth Israel; Shabbat services in 1858 were held above a stable and blacksmith shop.
These first synagogue members were irrepressible. An 1880 argument about doctrine escalated into a showdown when black-bearded Rabbi May pulled a pistol on a congregant, shot twice, and missed. (Make that two Jews, three opinions and one mercifully bad shot.)
Oregon's second synagogue accused Beth Israel of "nihilism and gentilism." Worse yet, Beth Israel was Americanized. New European immigrants created a third synagogue; by 1900 there was a fourth. Three and four combined names and members, but some congregants resented the merger. They found their home in 1902 and called it Shaarie Torah.
Nothing, it seems, begets a synagogue faster—on desert islands or in relatively remote early Portland—than dissenting Jews. "It keeps us on our toes!" says Rabbi Michael Cahana of Congregation Beth Israel. "We disagree, we struggle. It's about the passion we have in the way we see the world."
By the roaring '20s, eight synagogues represented three distinct Jewish movements (from left to right, if you will): Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox. From the '60s through the '90s, three synagogues grew to dominate the city: Beth Israel, Neveh Shalom, and Shaarie Torah. Consider these the basic-flavor years of Portland's Jewish religious practice.
"When I came here in 1953, the Jewish community was very stable with clearly defined elements," says Rabbi Joshua Stampfer, rabbi emeritus at Neveh Shalom, the Conservative synagogue founded in 1961 when two older shuls merged. "You knew how people would behave and react." By no means nostalgic, the 91-year-old rabbi now calls those decades "humdrum and predictable."
Unlike more sophisticated centers of urban Jewry, with longer histories, larger populations, and numerous institutions of Jewish higher learning, Portland stayed Podunk for a very long time. It wasn't until 1978 that a nascent group of free-thinking families left Congregation Beth Israel to cultivate more intellectually unexplored ground. It would be a decade before these families found their soulmate rabbi, and a few years still before he packed the pews. By the mid-'90s, though, good luck getting a seat during High Holiday services at Congregation Havurah Shalom, now located on NW 18th Avenue and home to 350 households.
"When I arrived, I was shocked by the energy and involvement of the congregation," says Rabbi Joey, so well-known by that moniker that some may not know his surname is Wolf. "We were avant-garde." In terms of religious practice, Havurah Shalom was off the charts, Portland's first Reconstructionist congregation. Turn left at Reform.
"I wanted something out of the norm," Rabbi Joey adds, "but I couldn't believe the deep seriousness of the members, boldly engaged, not just sitting on a roster. Producers, not consumers. This was a group that discovered itself and defined its principles before any rabbi got into the mix."
Thus ended the humdrum years of Jewish practice. If you listen carefully, you can almost hear the hierarchy tumbling: The reign of the Three Rabbis was over. Portland was on the verge of a new age in Jewish life, and the Reconstructionist Havurah Shalom was the hip end of the wedge (at least by Northwest standards; the larger Reconstructionist movement itself was already decades old). Increasingly, Jewish groups were demanding more personal and political relevancy from their houses of worship, no more prepackaged goods.
Behold that most quintessential of PDX movements, DIY, and its heady Talmudic offspring, MicroJewry.
Today, the city is ebullient with places of worship—the latest count is 21—serving a community estimated by the Jewish Federation of Greater Portland at 47,000 (though by others closer to 40,000). The spectrum of choices is vast, from Lake Oswego north to Vancouver, Washington, and from Friday-night film night with the secular humanists all the way to separate-gender seating among the Chabad-Lubavitch, whose rabbis wear iconic big black hats. Reconstructionist, Renewal, Independent, and just about all the big brands are now busily reinventing themselves in more idiosyncratic and Northwest-friendly ways.
"I love having the dogs," says Rabbi Cahana, who leads outdoor Friday-night services during the Reform synagogue Beth Israel's Shabbat on the Plaza, a popular play-and-pray summertime option offered by a number of synagogues at greenspaces throughout the city. To "Dogs Welcome" signs add ecstatic singing, guided meditation, forest retreats, tree-hugging holidays, live-stream services, and spirited praying, whether to ancient melodies, Beatles tunes, or klezmer clarinets. Text your rabbi for Talmudic interpretations. Go to mah-jongg or a meet-up.
"Labels, Shmabels" proclaims Shir Tikvah's website, to which its rabbi, Ariel Stone, adds, "There's less weight of history out here, an attenuation of old bonds." In short, experimenting is easier.
Unused to such a determinedly inventive community, New York transplant Rabbi Michael Kaplan is often taken aback by PDX ways. Says the young rabbi of the Sephardic shul Ahavath Achim, founded by Jewish immigrants from Turkey and Rhodes in 1916, "Here, you have to work harder to findsomeone who will think inside the box."

Since Tennessee State University's establishment in 1912, there have been many great moments in Big Blue athletics history.
With the arrival of the Centennial Celebration, TSU wanted to honor its' athletic excellence by highlighting 100 moments in the school's 100-year history.
With input from loyal Tiger fans, the TSU athletic department has re-lived one of the best Big Blue moments each weekday for the past four months.
Every sport in TSU's history was represented from the Tigersharks of the 1950's to the 11 Black College National Championships earned by the Tennessee State football team.
The series of moments highlighted some of the greatest athletes and coaches who are not only significant in Tennessee State's illustrious history, but are also some of the most-highly thought of individuals in all of athletics.
Moments like John McLendon coaching a "secret game" against an all-white school, Teresa Phillips coaching a men's basketball game and Wilma Rudolph capturing the hearts and imagination of millions by winning three gold medals transcend sports and could be some of the premier moments in American history.
Tennessee State has a lot to be proud of, and the 100 moments selected to be a part of the series are truly just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all the great athletic moments that the university has to offer.
All 100 moments are listed below, and are accessible by clicking on the article's title.
We, the Tennessee State Athletic Department, thank the fans for submitting all of their nominations and we hope that everyone enjoyed taking a walk down memory lane with us as we looked back on 100 outstanding moments.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Solanum, the nightshades, horsenettles and relatives, is a large and diverse genus of annual and perennial plants. They grow as forbs, vines, sub-shrubs, shrubs, and small trees, and often have attractive fruit and flowers. Many formerly independent genera like Lycopersicon (the tomatoes) or Cyphomandra are included in Solanum as subgenera or sections today. Thus, the genus nowadays contains roughly 1,500-2,000 species.
In particular the green parts (including unripe fruit) are often poisonous to humans, though not necessarily to other animals. But many bear edible fruits, leaves, or tubers. Several species are cultivated, including three globally important food crops:
Other species are significant food crops regionally, such as Ethiopian Eggplant and gilo (S. aethiopicum), naranjilla or lulo (S. quitoense), Turkey Berry (S. torvum), or the "bush tomatoes" (several Australian species).
While most medical relevance of Solanum is due to poisonings which are not uncommon and may be fatal, several species are locally used in folk medicine, particularly by native peoples who have employed them since long and know how to avoid poisonings. Giant Devil's-fig (S. chrysotrichum) has been shown to be an effective treatment for seborrhoeic dermatitis in a scientific study.
Solanum species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species (butterflies and moths) - see list of Lepidoptera that feed on Solanum.
The following list is a provisional lineup of the genus' traditional subdivisions, together with some notable species. Many of the subgenera and sections might not be valid; they are used here provisionally as the phylogeny of this genus is not fully resolved yet and many species have not been reevaluated.
Cladistic analyses of DNA sequence data suggests that the present subdivisions and rankings are largely invalid. Far more subgenera would seem to warrant recognition, with Leptostemonum being the only one that can at present be clearly subdivided into sections. Notably, it includes as a major lineage several members of the traditional sections Cyphomandropsis and the old genus Cyphomandra.

Meet our 2012-2013 Diversity Scholar
Sylvia Burlock Diversity Scholar 2012-2013
As the 2012-2013 Diversity Scholar, Sylvia Burlock hosted the Diversity Film Festival, which is a film series that highlights cultural heritage months like Latino Heritage Month, Black History Month, Women's History Month, and Asian-American/Pacific Islander Month.
The films that Burlock screened were La Misma Luna (Under the Same Moon), Glory, The Help, and Ip Man. Burlock created the promotional blog IUPUI Diversity Hotspot (iupuidiversity.tumblr.com) to advertise the films and other diversity events on campus, as well as to highlight IUPUI cultural clubs and organizations like the Asian Student Union, the International Club, the Latino Student Association, the Korean Student Union, and the Black Student Union. Burlock also used the Hotspot to feature interviews that she conducted with IUPUI staff at the Multicultural Success Center. She launched Music Videos Around the World: Asia, an online event in honor of Asian-American/Pacific Islander Month that showcases music videos with Asian-American and Asian artists as well as biographical information, on the Hotspot in April 2013.
In addition, Burlock worked with the Go Abroad Club to sponsor the International Speed Networking Event, which is an informal meet and greet between students who have studied abroad and those aspiring to study abroad.
Burlock will graduate in May 2014 with a Bachelors in English. She is experienced in blogging, public relations marketing, and graphic design, and has enjoyed the opportunity to gain such experiences as the Diversity Scholar for the IUPUI University Library.

Here's my take one what to do with some of the current WWE roster who seem to be... not doing anything:
Tyson Kidd & Evan Bourne
Pair up Evan Bourne & Tyson Kidd as a heel tag team when Evan returns, managed by Paul Heyman. Have them start a rivalry with Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio Jr which ultimately has the two teams facing each other for the tag titles at WM.
To the point, here is my suggestion for the main event at WM:
Rock and Cena versus CM Punk and Stone Cold
Punk and Stone Cold win, but Undertaker shows up. He knocks out CM Punk post match and celebrates with Stone Cold -- and all the legends applaud The Undertaker's official retirement

Why is all table functionality overridden in the new templates? Is there any way to stop this from happening?
My use of tables is limited, but it's frustrating when I do want to use them -- especially for aligning things vertically.
Here's an example:
The same exact code outside the templates:

Note that the template version doesn't have a border, it doesn't allow cell padding or cell spacing and it doesn't do any vertical alignment.

This hungry squirrel recreated Michelangelo's famous painting of the creation of Adam as it reached for a walnut.
The hilarious snap was captured in a park and shows the furry critter clinging on to a tree while stretching for a snack.
The stunning photo looks like the famous picture on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in which God gives Adam the spark of life through his fingers.
Photographer Stanislav Duben, 33, took the photo of his 16 year-old-sister, Aneta, as she fed the squirrel.
He said: 'We went to the park with a bag of nuts and within seconds we were surrounded by squirrels.
'My sister is very good with animals and began feeding them. Within about half an hour they felt safe with her and were coming right up to her.

'Town crier' radio thrives
The sound of music fills a radio studio on a Saturday afternoon. Children's tiny voices sing Christian songs.
As David Ventura fades out the music and turns on the microphone, the voice of pastor George Contreras travels across the airwaves throughout central Virginia.
The music and voices originate in Henrico County. In January 2012, WBTK 1380 AM radio moved from Richmond to studios in the Glenside area. The station's tower has always been in Lakeside.
While based in Henrico County, the station hopes to appeal to Hispanic listeners and others from around the region who want to hear Christian songs, a mix of Spanish music and family-friendly programs.
"All of the music that we play, all the programming that we play, it is all targeted toward the family," said Glen Motto, operations manager. "The lyrics of all of the songs are going to be safe."
Motto said the station changed formats six years ago. The owners realized the region's Hispanic community was growing.
"Henrico is the sixth largest county in Virginia in terms of Hispanic population," Motto said. "When you include Chesterfield and Richmond, the Hispanic population nears 50,000."
Radio stations play a central role in Hispanic communities in the U.S. and in Latin American countries.
Felipe Korzenny of The Center for Hispanic Marketing Communications at Florida State University writes in his blog that radio traditionally serves "as the town-crier in an interactive way" and the "radio announcer publicizes jobs…and spreads the word about local events."
That's exactly what drew WBTK announcer Oscar Contreras to the station.
Contreras, who lives in Henrico County, didn't expect to be working at a radio station.
He came to Richmond to study film and photography at Virginia Commonwealth University after his family moved to Culpeper from Guatemala.
But one day in his car, he heard the new radio station. He liked what he heard and called to apply for a job. He's been at the station since then.
Contreras considers the station a community resource offering such programs as "Focus on the Community," which airs each Monday.
"When I came into the radio [station, it] was in my heart to do a community show where we can inform people about what's going on in the region, events, the services, have interviews with different experts on different topics," he said. "We open the lines and people call; people ask questions."
The station works with local governments and nonprofit agencies to share information with its Hispanic listeners. And of course the station connects advertisers with what Motto calls an "underserved market."
Most of the music and programs are in Spanish, but long-time announcer "Brother Herb" Pollard hosts a morning show Monday through Friday in English.
On a recent Friday morning, Pollard played religious songs and testimonials interspersed with weather and traffic reports.
Pollard, who is black, said one of his roles is to encourage his listeners. Another role he has taken on is to help build bridges between the area's Hispanic and African-American communities.
"I bridge the gap between two cultures," Pollard said. "I try to do it by music and by communication. I show equal love to all cultures."

Short Pump Rotary volunteers help with rebuild, repair
On June 13, the Short Pump Rotary Club partnered with Schnabel Engineering for a day of volunteer work with Rebuilding Together Richmond. Team members (among them [from left] Chris Rufe, Melissa Abraham, Rick Naschold, and Micky Ogburn) completed a variety of repairs and home improvements ranging from painting and landscaping to cabinet installation and fence building.
"It was a privilege to be involved in this project," said club president Melissa Abraham. "The homeowner kept thanking the volunteers, but I think all of us would agree we are the ones who actually benefited. It was an opportunity to help a community member, fellowship with great people and improve our handyman skills." > Read more.

The melodious songs and graceful yet acrobatic leaps in the middle of the ocean are part of the male whale's courtship gestures to draw attention and impress the female, who chooses the male with the best display as part of their mating ceremony.
With a privileged location in the heart of Panama City, this new hotel opens its doors in the capital city just in time for the Panama Canal's centennial celebration.
CAMBUTAL, Los Santos. Some 35,687 sea turtles have successfully been born on the beaches of Cambutal in the province of Los Santos, according to official figures of the regional environmental group Tortu-Agro.
The natural ecosystem of theGulf of Chiriquíregion is endowed with a beautiful marine national park that extends along the coast between the island of Coiba and our neighboring country Costa Rica.
Current road upgrades will facilitate access and visit to the islands of this tropical archipelago, an increasingly popular destination among privileged tourists who can travel from the Gulf and Boquete all the way to the Cordillera in a span of merely 90 minutes. The pier at the small coastal town of Boca Chica is the embarkation point for boat rides and trips to nearby islands. The area of Boca Chica has a range of lodging for every budget, though usually in small inns with good customer service. Many hotels have their own docks for guests to board boats and go on an aquatic tour of other islands within the marine national park.
One such island is Boca Brava, just 10 minutes away from Boca Chica. Only half an hour from here you can find numerous islands with white sand beaches.
How to arrive
Al llegar al Aeropuerto Internacional de Tocumen, tome un taxi hasta la Terminal Nacional de Transporte Albrook. Allí busque los buses directos que lo llevan a la ciudad de Chiriquí. Existen buses de David a Boquete y salen de la terminal cada hora y los llevarán hasta el pueblo de David.
What to bring
If ever there was a time to visit Panama, this is it. In 2014 its famous canal celebrates 100 years of connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and Panama City is gearing up for the milestone with a slew of major developments.
A new attempt to unite Panama and Colombia through a sea route is in the works for October, and its organizers say that this time the project is steaming full speed ahead.
Panama means "abundance of fish" in an Indian language, and this fame attracts anglers from around the world. The Central American country has positioned itself as one of the main destinations for sport fishing, which has generated an annual visitor spending of over €135 million in lodging, boat rentals, and complementary activities.
Vice Minister of Tourism, Jennifer Champsur, Destination Marketing Representative Diwigdi Valiente, and Astrid Quirós visited Toronto, Canada from August 19th - 20th to attend the Incentive Works Show in Toronto.
The Atlapa Convention Center in Panama's capital opens its doors today to the 10th International Book Fair (FIL, for its acronym in Spanish) that has invited Mexico as the guest country to bring literary and artistic vitality to this lettered festival, according to the organizers and participating authors.

Let's have a look at the map again...
Jan Van Quirm wrote:Thought this might come in useful for this thread after briefly talking about other instances of lost cities on the Disc
The numbered locations on the Circle Sea region are as follows (clockwise from our NW into the sea itself) -

As a tangential point, but still on Leshp in general and it's place in Circle Sea cultural importance (as a Mediterranean style cradle of civilisation ) and of Holy Wood and it's sunken 'city' (which really is too close to Leshp for co-incidence), I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that a retro mage-war Discworld Atlantis/Indiana Jones-style story is waiting to happen if Terry is spared long enough to get around to it?
The entire Circle Sea is too super-volcanic caldera-like for comfort in fact.
OK - Atlantis-style theory
a) Leshp is mostly built on pumice - that's an aerated volcanic rock which is formed during an eruption when super-heated air-borne lava hits a large expanse of water...
b) the buildings on Leshp are a mix of earlier cultural architectural styles from societies bordering the Circle Sea.
c) we have another, permanently sunken city off the coast of Holy Wood and Para Mountain (8 & 14) that we've already seen in MP (blue text).
....(i) Terry also mentions the occasionally floating island of Leshp in either CoM or LF that he develops fully in this book
d) Vetinari found records concerning Leshp in A-M's municipal archives that dealt with previous risings
e) because people had built on Leshp before at various times this indicates that previous risings may have been for longer periods or even from before it sank - is it not therefore likely that knowledge of it's existence would have survived from even earlier times as folklore and legend?
In that last point Quirm (24 on the map) is not so far off that they may have had tales of the island too, perhaps from survivors of the original sinking? So Leonard, being that sort anyway, may also have investigated the odd tales and went to the general area to find out more. Whether or not it was on the surface is perhaps not so important - he could have gone there via a conventional boat but, this is thing - why would he build the Boat in the first place if not because he extrapolated and wanted to find out if the island did indeed float and so could sink as well (demonstrated in a & b) - the seaweed etc all over is proof enough of that surely for someone as clever as Leonard isn't it...?

DESTIN — The Destin Area Chamber of Commerce says a cleaner city could help spur economic development.
"As we continue to promote economic development, we want our city to be attractive to prospective businesses and their employees," said Bill Lindsley, immediate past chairman of the chamber's board of directors.
Lindsley was at a recent City Council meeting to present a resolution urging stronger code enforcement guidelines. He told council members the resolution was drafted after board members were approached by residents who were concerned about how Destin looks.
The resolution encourages the city to "review and enhance" its code enforcement regulations and take steps to ensure they can be enforced for the "purpose of maintaining the beauty (of the city) and protecting the environment."
"I'm not proposing for the city to measure yards with a ruler," Lindsley told the council.
Specific items the chamber would like to see addressed include:
l Not allowing homes to have blue tarps on their roofs for more than a year after a storm.
l Requiring real estate signs in residential neighborhoods to be residential size. Taking down signs that announce a commercial building is 100 percent leased. Reducing unnecessary "sign noise."
l Boats in front yards should be parked on a paved surface. A single boat is OK, but three or four become an "eyesore."
l Cars should be parked on a paved surface.
l Carports should be used for storing cars and not "five years worth of un-sellable" garage sale material.
Making simple changes to the city's codes or the way they are enforced would make a big difference, Lindsley said. A cleaner city would help boost property values, which in turn could increase property tax revenue, he said.
"Most importantly, those of us who live here deserve an attractive city, and while great strides have been made to beautify the community, we should all be concerned with areas of this community that aren't up to the minimum standards we have," he said.
Councilman Jim Wood said he agreed with the chamber's position but added that enforcement can be "a challenge."
"I echo your concerns," Councilman Tuffy Dixon told Lindsley. "I think this is something we definitely need to look at."
Chamber President and CEO Shane Moody said later that his organization has been discussing code enforcement issues for quite some time.
"Who wants to live or work in a place that appears to be blighted?" he said. "We are looking out for everyone in this community."
"Destin is headed down a very dangerous path where there is a cheapening of the community," Moody added. "If we don't pay attention to it, we are going to lose that jewel of the Emerald Coast appeal."

is the jambox waterproof?
- Asked by Jeff R from Windermere
JAMBOX by Jawbone Wireless Speaker
Product No Longer Available
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
Although the top and base of Jambox are solid plastic and could probably survive a few spots of rain, the sides are made of finely perforated metal and would allow water to reach the electronics inside. So no, not waterproof.

I have to say although its not "waterproof" mine has survived two separate falls into my shower. I normally have it on the top shelf above my shower and because it's bass is strong it will sometimes bounce itself off the shelf. On the second occasion it fell right under the stream of water for a couple seconds. I turned it off, let it dry, and when it turned it back on all was good.

Perhaps one of the cutest cartoon shows that I've ever seen is Maryoku Yummy. Maryoku lives in a dream world called the Nozomu, in which reside tiny beings called wishes. The wishes resemble tiny little marshmallow rectangles with a little swirly cue on top, which is reminiscent of Cindy Loo Hoo from Whoville in The Grinch.
Every time a child makes a wish, the tiny being travels to the land of Nozomu. Maryoku is a wish-sitter (or Yummy), which is a full time job. Maryoku likes to travel with her friends Ooka and Fij Fij throughout Nozomu, meeting with other friends and solving everyday problems. Other wish-sitters also watch the wishes, caring for each one and teaching them life lessons along the way. When a real wish is granted, the wish being shimmers and shines.
Saint Etienne composed the music for this adorable cartoon show, which the band described as, "Teletubbies meets Spirited Away". (Indeed, watching it I was reminded of the fantastical, whimsical colors that were used by Hayao Miyazaki in Ponyo.)Maryoku Yummy was created by American Greetings. When it premiered, it came with a line of merchandise geared towards children and tweens. The tween merchandise was also featured in 600 U.S. Limited Too and Justice stores.
Maryoku Yummy still airs on The Hub, Thursdays at 10:30 am and 11:00 am EST.

Robbie Lawler vs. Rory MacDonald planned for UFC 167
By Brent Brookhouse @brentbrookhouse on Aug 20 2013, 7:13p
A bout Dana White previously expressed interest in making is now being targeted for UFC 167 as Rory MacDonald takes on Robbie Lawler.
UFC president Dana White had previously stated that the company wanted to make a bout between welterweights Robbie Lawler and Rory MacDonald in the wake of MacDonald's one sided, albeit not overly exciting, win over Jake Ellenberger. The Ellenberger win was Rory's fifth in a row since his lone career loss, a competitive third round stoppage against Carlos Condit at UFC 115.
MMA Junkie is now reporting that the Lalwer vs. MacDonald bout is being targeted for UFC 167:
Several days after UFC President Dana White confirmed that the promotion would book a fight between Rory MacDonald (15-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) and Robbie Lawler (21-9 MMA, 6-3 UFC), MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) has learned the fight is targeted for UFC 167, which takes place Nov. 16 at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena. While verbal agreements are in place, contracts have yet to be signed.
Lawler has gone 2-0 since his return to the UFC following the closure of Strikeforce, scoring TKOs of Josh Koscheck and Bobby Voelker, but had only gone 3-5 during his time at Strikeforce, dropping fights to Jake Shields, Renato Sobral, Jacare Souza, Tim Kennedy and Lorenz Larkin.
The return to the UFC was also Lawler's return to welterweight which could be a part of his return to success.
UFC 167 is scheduled to be headlined by a bout between Georges St. Pierre and Johny Hendricks for the welterweight title, so it's possible the winners of the two bouts would be paired up for the next title fight.
