hmmm. this looks like a problem to me. it's been awhile since i've
worried about modems, but i'm pretty sure you need nameservers here.
the really odd thing is that you say that root has nameserving. my guess is
that kppp sets up some kind of nameserving. it's prolly not 'working' for
your user accounts.
this file should have the form:
search mysearch.edu
nameserver 184.108.40.206
nameserver 18.104.22.168
where mysearch.edu is a kind of default search (not required). the
nameserver fields are your DNS servers. you had to enter this into kppp
when you set it up.
> ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
> inet addr:188.8.131.52 P-t-P:22.214.171.124 Mask:255.255.255.255
looks good.

ok, i just wanted to make sure it was suid.

i think we narrowed it down to a nameserving problem. fix resolv.conf and
see if that helps things.

Family Bank is focused on growing its local market share to join the top banking league within three years after more than doubling its net profit.
The mid-tier lender's after-tax profit for the year ended December 31 leaped to Sh1.25 billion, rising by 121.8 per cent over the previous year's Sh561.5 million.
Its performance largely benefited from a significant drop in interest expenses to Sh903.5 million from Sh1.48 billion on cheaper customer deposits which increased by nearly Sh10 billion to Sh34.58 billion.
The lender's loan book grew to Sh27.94 billion in the review period from Sh17.87 billion, which earned it Sh4.69 billion in interest from Sh4.21 billion in 2012. It also halved its loan loss provisions to Sh321.8 million from Sh645.3 million a year earlier.
Non-interest income, earned from fees and commissions on loans and advances and foreign exchange trading, also jumped to Sh1.85 billion from Sh1.44 billion.
"We should hit the parameters set for top-tier banks by the Central Bank within three years. These include increasing our customer base, growing our balance sheet size, deposits held and total assets," Peter Munyiri told the Star yesterday.
Family, now with Sh43.5 billion in total assets, has suspended plans to list on the Nairobi Securities Exchange this year and going regional, instead settling on increasing its footprint to 85 branches from the current 73.It was converted into a bank six years ago from a building society.
It is the first time its profit has hit and surpassed the Sh1 billion mark. The bank's directors have recommended a dividend of Sh0.40 per share, doubling the total payout over that of last year to Sh222.8 million, according to its chairman Wilfred Kiboro.

37 and 38 Weeks Pregnancy
37 Weeks Pregnant
You are almost at the end of your pregnancy period. It is the time when you need to prepare yourself for any critical situation. It is essential to keep your hospital bag ready beforehand and don't forget to keep all the important information with you whenever you are away from home like important telephone numbers, money, address book, doctor or midwife's number etc. These all things become handy in undesirable situations.
Up till now, the major development of your baby is almost completed and now is the time for his growth. In the coming weeks, you will see a considerable amount of growth in your baby in terms of his size, muscular strength and weight. Lungs and brain cells keep developing in the coming weeks. The subcutaneous fat deposits continue to build up underneath the baby's skin. Testicles in baby boy descend down to the scrotum in most of the babies.
The baby is small in size at this stage, but begins to grow some size in next coming weeks. At this particular stage, the head of the baby begins to shift down into the pelvis, especially if he is your first baby. However, if you are having your second or third baby, the head may not lower to pelvis till the time of labor. Though, the aggressive movements of the baby are gone, he can still able to move in the limited space available in the uterus.
38 Weeks Pregnant
In The 38th week of your baby the development of your baby is almost completed and he is about to coming in this world. Mother will feel change shape in her bump when the baby is going to descend his head to the pelvis. And the mother does not pass from these changes in the case of second and third baby as the baby descends by the time of labor in such cases.
The most important growth in baby is making of the fat layer under your baby's skin and also occurs in the time of labor.
Now baby's heart starts beating at 110-160 beats a minute. This time Newborn baby has 300 bones. There is no need to be surprised because as the time passes some bones merged into each other and finally become 206 in number.
By this time the fluffy lanugo covering most of the skin of the baby has fallen away. But small amount of lanugo still on the back and shoulder areas. Baby's body is still covered with greasy vernix
Baby does not move as energetic baby. But he is still active. And now he has curled up knees and skin is now pushed onto baby's chest. In the 23rd weeks baby closes his eyes and it looks like sleeping and dreaming all the time. This has a good impact on the baby's brain and baby sleep 6p percent of the total day. It means he dreams a lot in these weeks and has a rapid growth of brain cells.

The Soul Train Awards rolled into the Orleans Arena last month, towing with it the best jazz, R&B, hip-hop and rap artists. Honoring legend Dionne Warwick and showcasing a trio of divas, including Jennifer Hudson, Chaka Khan and Evelyn "Champagne" King, Soul Train uplifted audience members while instilling a sense of community between its stars of today and yesterday. The taping of the award show premieres on BET and CENTRIC tonight, December 1 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
We caught up with the presenters, performers and special guests beforehand on the red carpet to learn where they get soulful in Vegas. Check out their picks so you too can be redeemed in Sin City.
Soul food
Fine Dining
According to the Braxton sisters (Braxton Family Values), the best way to experience soul is in the kitchen. They weren't the only ones to think so. Jazz saxophonist, Dave Koz, told us, "There's a lot of overlap between music and the creativity that happens in a kitchen. I love to come here and eat." Sage at Aria and the Country Club at Wynn were among his top picks. Make sure you check out the Country Club's Sunday Jazz Brunch. It's almost like Koz is there himself.
Relaxed meals
Singer-songwriter Ashanti is a fan of soul food choices like M&M Soul Food Café and Kathy's Southern Cooking. "I like Fatburger, too," she added with a smile.
Soul-saving meals
If you're in need of a little spiritual healing with that comfort food, we recommend House of Blues' Gospel Sunday Brunch. With an all-you-can-eat buffet and a full choir performing traditional and contemporary gospel songs, salvation never tasted so good.
More mouthfuls…
Dine at Lola's for delectable Louisiana cuisine. For a unique twist on southern inspiration, visit Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill. Try their fried chicken with wasabi honey. It will warm your heart and inspire your mind.
Reality star recommendations
American Idol winner and The Biggest Loser contestant, Ruben Studdard, loves exploring entertainment on the Strip. He recommends The Rat Pack is Back at The Rio and Celine Dion at The Colosseum for soulful performances. While a self-proclaimed Vegas show aficionado, there is one show he is still dying to see; "Boys II Men. I gotta see that show," he said.
Lil' Mama, singer and judge from America's Best Dance Crew, prefers the Strip's performance art, quipping the best place to find soul was, "At the Cirque du 'Soul'eil!" She also loves going to watch the Jabbawockeez. "They're alumni from our show and they are so talented."
Our performance picks
Stratosphere's Frankie Moreno and Matt Goss of Caesars Palace coolly croon jazz favorites, taking audiences back to the Golden Age of music.
Drinks and dancing
The Braxtons planned to celebrate sister Tamar Braxton's Best R&B/Soul Female Artist win with a few drinks. Rapper MC Lyte, recommended LAVO Italian Restaurant and Nightclub for a night out. "Whenever I go it feels really based in the authenticity of hip-hop." We also recommend the Boom Box Room in Marquee Nightclub at The Cosmopolitan. You'll hear nothing but hip-hop hits all night long.
Sin City soul skeptics
While we're strong believers there's soul in the city, we understand some may not come to Vegas for soul searching. Dancer, choreographer and So You Think You Can Dance judge, Debbie Allen, put it best, "I don't know if I'm coming to Vegas to find soul. I'm coming to Vegas to see a fantastic show, drinks some drinks, and go and get room service, child!"
We certainly aren't going to argue with an Emmy and Golden Globe winner. After all, those are good choices, too.

Androgynous names are all the rage these days. Why name only a boy Taylor when the name is just as cute on a girl? Shawn can be a female or male and be just as cool. After all, why should boys get all the fun? Boys' names are pretty adorable!
In fact, in my son's class alone, there is a little girl who shares his name (Alan), and I will say it's equally sweet on them both. As thedaughter of a man named Ashley who grew up being addressed as Mrs., I know it wasn't easy to have a name that was associated with girls.
But things are changing and my guess is now, 30 years from now, no one will assume any gender when it comes to names. Here's my list of "boy" names that sound better on girls.
Which do you like best?
Image via soapylovedeb/Flickr
can't decide whether she is a mother, writer, or runner, but is usually all three at some point each day. She has written for dozens of print magazines, newspapers, and websites. She rarely ever writes on bathroom walls.
None of mine do, and although I agree that some names are cute regardless of gender I also think that some names do sound better for just one gender. I also think depending upon where you live on our planet there are names that will likely always be associated with only one gender regardless of how times have or will change.
I do think there will come a time when people will think of asking if it's a boy or a girl when they hear a name rather than assuming based on the name. I think that this is only because most people in society know that there are many parents naming their children regardless if the name sounds better for a boy/girl or is commonly associated with a boy/girl
My daughter's name is Samantha and she gets called Sam alot. It works for her.
None of mine do. I like a lot of these names.
I am not a fan of either or names. I wanted a name where there was no question when looking at it what gender my child was.
Yes, my 8 year old daughter is named Cameron. It's my grandmother's (who raised me) maiden name so there was never any doubt about what my child would be named...whether it be a boy or girl.
oh thats great, first all the girl clothes section take over the stores and now they are stealing boy names? can boys ever have one thing?
Some I like for girls. Some I thought were just girls lol.

Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) November 14, 2013
Republic Wireless, home of the nation's most affordable smartphone service, today announced that the Moto X is available today for sale in its online store for $299 with no contract. Republic now offers four new disruptively priced plans from $5 to $40 per month, and the ability to change plans up to twice per month right on the phone so consumers never buy more cellular service than they truly need.
"We're pumped to offer the Moto X and four new plans that reset the bar for pricing plans in this industry," said David Morken, co-founder and CEO of Republic Wireless. "Republic Wireless is all about transparency and helping consumers save money on escalating smartphone bills. When the family smartphone bill is only second to the car loan or the mortgage, it's a problem for a lot of consumers. We don't think it should be this way! We're focused on making smartphones truly smart and using all available networks to bring costs down so you don't wince every time the bill comes. It's about making smartphones affordable and accessible to anyone who wants one.This is the way wireless should be."
Republic members can pick from one of several Moto X pricing plans, selecting a plan that best fits their lifestyle versus overpaying for cellular service they don't need.
Republic members can switch plans right on the phone or from their online account portal up to two times each month as their usage needs change.
"We're most excited about our $10 plan," Morken added. "This is the plan that has the most potential to transform a family budget. You've heard of "cord-cutters" and "cord-nevers" on the cable side – using streaming services to avoid a massive cable big – well this is the wireless equivalent. For $10 a month, you can use the WiFi networks that are plentiful all around us, and supplement with unlimited talk & text on cell."
Optimized for superior voice, text and data while on WiFi and offering seamless connectivity when moving from WiFi coverage to the cellular network, the Moto X is packed with innovative features such as:
For more information and full specifications click here.
Republic will offer the 16GB version of the Moto X in woven white and woven black initially for $299. The Republic Wireless store will also offer a full range of Moto X accessories including speakers, Bluetooth headsets and more.
Republic's original $19/month unlimited plan will still be available on the Motorola DEFY™ XT and the signature 30-day money back guarantee is still in place for all phones.
"The bottom line is with Republic Wireless you get great WiFi and cellular smartphone service so you never have to pay for more than you need," Morken adds. "And when you aren't on WiFi, the phone operates just like a normal smartphone on the nationwide cellular networks."
About Republic Wireless
Named 'Disruptor of the Year' by Entrepreneur Magazine, Republic Wireless helps consumers save money on smartphone service. Republic Wireless, a division of Bandwidth, headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, is spearheading a wireless freedom movement to return value and control of the smartphone experience to members by leveraging the power of both WiFi and cellular networks. Our Hybrid Calling uses WiFi in the home, office or anywhere else as the primary network for calls, texts and data. When outside of Wi-Fi coverage, the smartphone works just like a typical cellphone on the cellular networks of national CDMA carriers. Visit http://www.republicwireless.com/ for more information.

I need to remove all occurrences of apostrophes within a text fields, I'd appreciate any help.
I am importing data from a RPGLE environment to a VB.Net environment; I usually remove apostrophes after importing, however I have fields that are now part of the file key and therefore need to be cleaned up on the RPGLE level.
(1) How would an apostrophes be identified in RPG, would I use a quotation within the apostrophes used as text identifiers to declare it?
(2) How would I remove all the occurences of apostrophes within a text field?.... preferably using free format code?
Thanks in anticipation. Once again, I appreciate any help.

Who's who in Egypt's latest political crisis
- The National Salvation Front, the main opposition coalition: It was formed in November amid a wave of public anger against Morsi over decrees, since rescinded, giving him almost unrestricted powers. Led by Nobel Peace laureate Mohamed ElBaradei, it groups the main liberal and secular opposition parties and includes two former presidential candidates, Hamdeen Sabahi and ex-Arab League chief Amr Moussa. It does not officially represent the young men and women taking part in protests. It rejected a call by Morsi this weekend for dialogue, saying the talks were not serious - a move that could boost its credibility among protesters. It has also threatened to boycott the next parliamentary elections, possibly in April, if Morsi does not meet demands for a national unity government and the amending of contentious clauses in the constitution.
- The Black Bloc is a mysterious group of masked young men who present themselves as the defenders of protesters opposed to the Morsi's rule. The youths with faces hidden under black masks have appeared among stone-throwing protesters in clashes with police around Egypt the past week. On Tuesday, top prosecutor Talaat Abdullah ordered that all members of the group be arrested on sight.

THE dealers peer at their computer screens, frantically buying and selling shares. Everybody knows the shares are overpriced but still they buy. The hope is that somebody else will pay even more. This is the greater-fool theory at work: the notion that there is always a greater fool out there willing to pay more. As time grows short, the share price holds remarkably constant. In fact, as the underlying value drops, the trading price actually rises. In this market, there is no shortage of fools it seems.
But suddenly the buyers dry up. And when everybody realises that nobody wants to pay these inflated prices, panic sets in. As the final moments of trading approach, prices plunge. The bubble has burst.

Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers
Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers had the audience in the palm of their hands during their three performances at the Lawrence O'Brien Arts Centre in Happy Valley- Goose Bay.
The crowd soaked up every moment; laughing to tears from the hilarious skits like Da Yammie, and listening intently to the more emotional songs such as Salt Water Joys.
This year marks the 30th anniversary for the trio. They may be long in the tooth, but the quality of their performances hasn't decreased in the slightest. Since they've been around so long, the audience has been become multi-generational. During their three performances in Goose Bay, the age of the crowd ranged from pre-teen to senior citizen.
The attraction of young people coming out to see us, That's very important," says group member Ray Johnson. "I think it's the fact that the parents are after bringing them out so see us that it's caught on.
While everyone across the province has heard of the group, many people were treated to their very first Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers concert at the Arts Centre last week.
"I'm relatively new to Labrador, so it's all quite interesting," says Steve Joudry. "It's real humour, you can understand what they're saying and they have a good way of describing it so it touches everybody.
Others saw them in the past, but were back to more entertainment from the trio.
"I think it's excellent. I came here last year. I'm glad that they changed (the show) up, even though I would have watched the same thing over again," says Jeremy Billard.
The best part about going to see Buddy Wasisname and the other fellers is the variety of the show. The group can have you in stitches one moment with their skits and novelty songs, and have you feeling emotional the next with their lyrics and soft tunes.
"The highlight is, if you can make people laugh and then bring them down to an emotional place with something like Salt Water Joys, I think we've done something to allow people to go home with a good thought, feeling wonderful and so forth," says Ray Johnson.
During their third show, the biggest hit was a skit where Kevin put Ray on his lap, and the two did a ventriloquist skit, where Ray pretended to be the wooden dummy.
Only live can one see the humorous facial expressions and antics of Kevin Blackmore and the musical talents of Wayne Chaulk and Ray Johnson. The three members have their own unique talents and they feed off each other very well.
Playing a high-energy show three nights in a row can be tough, but the group says it's all worth it at the end of the night.
"All of that you forget about, when you see what it's all about," says Wayne Chaulk. "When you get the reaction and people enjoy what you're doing, you forget about the misery of travelling and stuff."

Latin American Photography: A Spiritual Journey
- Dates: September 12, 1996 through January 19, 1997
- Organizing Department: Prints, Drawings and Photographs
- Collections: Arts of the Americas
... more
Fall 1996: Photography in Latin America: A Spiritual Journey will include approximately seventy photographs by fifteen contemporary photographers who are native to Latin America, or have spent a significant part of their working lives there. Scheduled for October 25, 1996 through January 19,1997, the exhibition will include mostly black-and-white photographs with some color images. A small ancillary exhibition of earlier material, consisting of albums and single photographs dating from or referring to the 19th Century, will provide historical support to the exhibition.
All photographs are from the permanent collection of The Brooklyn Museum, and have been collected over the past twenty years. The exhibition will present the daily and spiritual life of the people of Latin America as seen through the eyes of such artists as Manuel Alvarez Bravo (Mexico), Graciela Iturbide (Mexico), Javier Silva Meinel (Peru), Flor de Maria Yanez Garduño (Mexico), Sebastiao Salgado (Brazil), Sebastian Rodriguez (Peru), and Valdir Cruz (Brazil). These artists, who are well known in Latin America and in the western United States, are infrequently shown on the east coast. Photography in Latin America: A Spiritual Journey will attract the attention of New York City's large and diverse audience of photography enthusiasts, as well as New York's large Latino audiences.
Photography in Latin America will continue The Brooklyn Museum's history of exhibiting photography, which began in 1890. Early exhibitions featured artists who were to become the most famous in the history of the art form, including Berenice Abbott, Edward Weston, Walker Evans, and Edward Steichen. The Museum was one of the first museums in the eastern United States to seriously collect the work of the Latin American artists.
Most recently, the Museum's tradition of recognizing great artists in this medium was continued with its retrospective of Lewis Wick Hine in 1977, which was chosen to be the first major exhibition of Western art shown in China after many years of prohibiting foreign culture. In 1993, the Museum presented an exhibition of photographs by Consuelo Kanaga (1894-1978), one of America's most talented, albeit unrecognized, female photographers. The exhibition was praised in over fifty periodicals, including a full-page review in The New York Times.
The exhibition will address issues of social condition, historical imagery, landscape[,] and architecture. In this print by the photographer A. Briquet (a French portrait photographer who moved to Mexico in the first quarter of the Twentieth Century and finally assumed Mexican citizenship), we begin to understand the chasm between poverty and wealth. This image of two male peddlers dressed in rags (in all likelihood, father and son), bearing their respective loads of violins and bows, prompts us to wonder where the demand for their wares can possibly exist and who their customers might be. This early photograph reflects the tendency of contemporary photographers to explore ethnography and customs which were often, accidentally powerful and moving images. Landscape and architecture were also the subject of Latin American artists. In a work by the photographer, Renata Von Hanffstengel who was born in Germany in 1934 and has lived most of her life in Mexico, we are made acutely aware of the respect for architectural ruins that exist throughout Mexico and Latin America. In this arresting image titled Tecalic Space Open to the Divine, 1978, we can admire loving attention paid to the remains of this eighteenth century church (in the province of Tecal, Mexico). The grass kept trimmed beneath the roof of sky, flowers have been planted carefully at the column bases. It is in the aspect of religion that the most powerful imagery occurs in Latin America. Catholicism grounded, religious beliefs, [sic] blend with those of their ancestors, whose religions included numerous native and ancient gods.
Here in two examples by the Peruvian photographer, Javier Silva Meinel, Qollor Riti, Peru, 1993, and Lurin-Lima, 1993, we are made privy to two very different and striking ceremonies dealing with ancillary and ancient worship finally absorbed into Christianity. Qollor Riti, Peru is a ceremony of appeasement to the Gods of the ice glacier, mountain peaks of the North, while Lurin-Lima depicts an entreaty to the ocean gods of the Southern shores to make the fish bountiful. Both are considered Christian ceremonies but their roots lie in "Paganism". However, the traditional stories of the new testament can be beautifully realized as in this marvelous image by the important Mexican photographer Lola Alvarez Bravo (pupil of her internationally recognized husband, the photographer Manual Alvarez Bravo). Here in her photograph, La Visitacion, Lola Bravo depicted the meeting of Mary and Martha when they have both learned of their respective pregnancies (Mary is carrying Jesus and Martha will bear John the Baptist)[. T]his photograph was made in 1934 just after Lola Bravo had left her husband to set out on her own career as a photographer.
Many Latin Americans also continue to accept beliefs that came from Africa with their ancestors who were slaves. The[re] is a strong presence of death reflecting a tradition which naturally accepts and acknowledges its place in society. Funerals are not an end to life, but rather a continuation of it, as is evidence[d] by the observance of Dia de Todos Muertos, in Mexico, in which picnics are held in the cemeteries once a year, and young lovers give each other skulls made of sugar often labeled with the word "Amor" or with their beloved's name, as in this photograph by Manuel Alvarez Bravo of a young girl offering (or perhaps accepting) a sugar skull from her boyfriend.
Basteinne Schmidt, a young German photographer who travels frequently in Latin America and spent three years intensively photographing the culture of death in Columbia, Peru, Argentina, Ecuador[,] and Mexico, celebrates in her photographs several aspects of death including the predominant use of pre-adolescent children as maintainers of cemeteries in Latin America[,] and in her poignant image of Woman Mourning the Anniversary of the Death of Her Sister, she depicts the ceremony as a combination of renewal focusing on the kites that rise swiftly into the morning sky while the woman, restrained forcibly by her friends and relatives, gives full vent to her sorrow[.] She calls this series of images, "Vivir la Muerte, death ritual in South America." Several of her photographs appear in this exhibition.
In Latin America and Mexico in particular, many small villages are occupied mainly by the elderly and women with children whose fathers have left to seek work in urban areas, inevitably starting new families and leaving their deserted wives to make a living in any way they can. In this remarkable photograph by Garciela Iturbide (Mexican, b. 1942), we see a Woman Carrying Sisal Fiber which is used in making mats and baskets. The material born[e] on her back gives her the appearance of an angel with wings of sisal. Her head crowned by a scarf turban and her body clothed in white fabric complete the illusion. Only her grim and determined expression gives us the clue to her burdensome existence as the total support of her family. Iturbide whose photographs are internationally admired has sought out these women as the subject of many of her most notable photographs including her famous Nuesta Senora de las Iguanas, which depicts a woman crowned by her lizards (which are sold to be eaten). The photograph Tropiero I (Cattle Driver, Parana, Brazil), 1990, printed 1991, is an especially powerful portrait of an eighty year old man who continues to make his living, driving cattle for hundreds of miles and many days while taking cattle to market. However, he is still handsome, vigorous[,] and unforgettable. The work is difficult but he does it willingly[,] according to the photographer, Valdir Cruz (Brazilian, b. 1954) who accompanied the Tropiero recently on a cattle drive. The subject matter of these photographs is neither violent nor political in nature. Rather, the photographs illuminate a view of spirituality and daily life which is unique to Latin American cultures.
The photographs will be organized geographically and by artist and will include both realist and conceptual artists. The prints will include both color and black and white and include several techniques ranging from early albumen prints to gelatin silver prints, color cibachromes[,] and color coupler prints.
The exhibition will also attempt to show the evolution in subject matter from the ethnological and travel photography of the nineteenth and early twentieth century to the present realist, artistic[,] and conceptual vision of contemporary photographers like Lourdes M. Grobet (Mexican, b. 1940) who attempted successfully to intervene in her landscape photography by actually painting the plants, trees[,] hills, and grasses before immortalizing them through her lens. There will also be work by the Brazilian photographer Mario Cravo Neto (b. 1947) whose depictions of Afro-Brazilians are truly and simply, magical, as in his Two Fish, Bahia, 1992, a masterwork of tone and texture. These are but a few examples of the more then seventy photographs in the exhibition.

My grandmothers death.
I arrived on a monday.
I wanted to hang out with ma. She wasnt eating, so I had come prepared to encourage her, or to drive a noisy propped plane or a locomotive into her mouth. When I arrived in Minneapolis, my mother met me a the airport.* As we drove to see my grandmother, she told me;
Ethel had a stroke last night, and shes not very responsive.
At her apartment and bedside a hospice musician sitting in one of mas large reclining armchairs before a yamaha keyboard on a collapsable x-shaped stand was playing lilting and innocuous liminal tunes.
My peripatetic scourging stopped in her bedroom. I said goodbye, ended the phone call and witnessed silence. Mas rasping has stopped. Ma. I held her hand. I pressed my head to her chest. I put my cheek to her mouth. I tried to close it.
Later, sitting with my daughter in the balcony dining area overlooking the buffet from which she just selected her meal, I responded to her question of
How did she die? with:
Well, she had lived a long time. She had a stroke – and parts of her body stopped working. She could no longer eat or drink. The few words she spoke after I arrived were in my response to a story I told her about you. I told her about how you were concerned for me because I dont believe in god. She moaned and groaned as she moved her legs under her covers. I said to your great grandmother; you dont like this story do you, ma?
She looked at me for the first time since her stroke and saidNO.
Because she wasnt eating or drinking her body began to shut down. It slowly stopped working and she died.
Lucy released a sigh of resignation and said

First, let's dispense with the movie myth: Man running through jungle blindly stumbles into pit of quicksand; within seconds he is sucked under by a powerful vacuum, leaving behind only a floating pith helmet as a warning to others.
The horror! Say it isn't so.
It isn't so.
Research shows that it's impossible for a person to become completely submerged in the stuff. That's because the human body is less dense than quicksand — a mixture of sand, clay and salt water. The worst that could happen is that you could sink in to just above your waist.
Not that waist-deep in quicksand is a particularly good place to be ... If your feet become wedged in the densely packed sand at the bottom, it's very hard to get them out. When people die in quicksand, they don't suffocate. They die of thirst or starve, or if they're near a coast, they drown in high tide.
So how do you get out? To begin with, if you know you'll be in an area where there may be quicksand — marshes, tidal pools — remember Teddy Roosevelt's mantra: ""Walk softly and carry a big stick."" Walking softly is sensible, but it's the big stick that could save you.
If you fall into quicksand, resist the natural instinct to kick your way out. That just separates the sand from the water, forming a very dense layer of sediment at bottom where your feet are. Instead, you need to stay calm and lean back, so you get as much of your body surface on the water as possible. That's where the big stick can help; if you can place it under your back and perpendicular to your body, it can help you float.
As you begin floating, slowly start moving your feet — not in a thrashing motion, but in small circles, the point being to get more water down into the thick sediment where your feet are. It may take awhile, but in time, as you get more of your body on the water's surface, you should be able to float free and paddle your way to solid ground.

Tzeira Sofer's quest to conquer her own hypersensitivities led to much more than she anticipated--the founding of her own skin care company. After researching phytotherapy and natural healing traditions, Tzeira established a clinic, where she helped people struggling with chronic conditions like her own. It was there that Tzeira learned about the benefits of pomegranate extract from a client and quickly became a believer in its powers to heal and protect the body. After years of personal research, Tzeira teamed up with a group of scientists to formulate a line of skin care formulas based around pomegranate seed oil, marking the birth of her brand, Pomega5.
Pomega5 offers products that avoid harsh chemicals, artificial colorants, chemical preservatives, synthetic fragrance and chemical sunscreens wherever possible.

Current Programs…
Food Assistance Program
Establish donation programs and incorporating a summer food drives annually through networking and partnering with local supermarkets. Food drives will be held before the beginning of the summer vacation in the community at places such as a local church, the fair grounds and a public school. We will target low income families by obtaining the free and reduced lunch statistics.
Schools & Supply Assistance Program
Establish a Back-to-School Community Bash where we will provide the necessary school supplies for low income families with children and public school teachers through partnering with department stores. We will have the families sign-up for the necessary school supplies by registering with Reaching Out Now through the school system at the school the child or children are enrolled. Through the support of these businesses and the community these children in need will be provided with the tools to go back to school: backpacks filled with school supplies.
Reaching Out Now will work with the counselors and administrators in the middle and high schools monthly and offer hygiene bags to the students. These bags will include toiletries, deodorant and hygiene products.
Network & Mentoring Program
Establish an open sit down-round-table luncheon between teachers to engage in conversation on particular topics they face each day in their career and in the classroom. In addition, the teachers will have the opportunity to listen to special guest speakers to educate and inform them on topics of interest. This time together will be in a relaxed atmosphere and will help teachers to learn new ideas, develop strategies and have a much greater opportunity to become more efficient and effective teachers to our children. We will have these sessions yearly.

Great, except.... . . . .
I received this bracelet as a gift and I really do love it. It's a beautiful piece of jewelry and I love what it signifies. My only critique is that the letters on the end have started to come up just enough to snag on sweaters and such. I don't wear it much because I don't want to snag it on something and break off the letters or ruin a sweater. Also, it is quite big. Even though it is adjustable, I can never get it small enough so I feel like it is securely on my wrist.
Happy gift recipient. . . . .
I bought this bracelet as a gift for my 17-year-old daughter. She loves it! It's a unique, well-made bracelet that looks great on her...and even more importantly, makes her smile.
Great Buy!. . . . .
Shipped quickly and looks just like the picture. I adore it! If you have a nickel allergy, be careful. There's quite a bit of nickel in the bracelet. I would definitely recommend.

- Set the pot on the mat in a place where you can leave it over night.
- Saturate the cloth with Stiffy and drape over your form. Mold it and shape it the way you like it. Let dry.

I've made the Halloween Ghost Centerpiece many times. I like the look of the arms but my poor ghosts have no arms. Instead of styrophome for the shape of the head I used a balloon blown up to the size I want and set it on an uprighted disposable plastic glass of any size you'd like. I prefer the taller plastic glasses. You can get a large bag of plastic glasses at a dollar store and just throw away the used ones when your project is completed. You can use the leftovers on a picnic, camping trip, at home for the kids, or whatever you'd like. The knot of the balloon is sitting inside the cup. It looks just fine with no arms tho I do like the arms now that I've seen them. The draping of the cheesecloth with the balloon works fine too. I just take a pin, needle, opened paper clip, or whatever and pop the ballon when the cheesecloth has dried. In the instructions along with what you said, you have to wrap the styrofoam with a plastic wrap. By using a balloon the cheesecloth doesn't stick and there's no cost for the styrofoam balls. Thanks, you reminded to get mine out of storage and set them up around the house. Sue

A considerable downside of frequent alcohol consumption is a higher rate of health risks —especially for women. Women's bodies are more sensitive to the effects of alcohol abuse than men's bodies.
As a result, women who drink are more prone to particular health risks, including breast cancer, heart disease and liver damage.
Research shows that women start to have alcohol-related problems at lower drinking levels than men. One explanation is on average, women weigh less than men. In addition, alcohol disperses in body water, and pound for pound, women have less water in their bodies than men. So after a man and woman of the same weight drink the same amount of alcohol, the woman's blood alcohol concentration will tend to be higher. Other biological differences, including hormones, may contribute, as well.
1 Drink - 48.2% of women2 Drinks - 29.9 % of women3+ Drinks - 21.9% of women
Breast Cancer
There is an association between drinking alcohol and developing breast cancer. Women who consume about one drink per day have a 10% higher chance of developing breast cancer than women who do not drink at all.
Liver Damage
Women who drink are more likely to develop alcoholic hepatitis (liver inflammation) than men who drink the same amount of alcohol. Alcoholic hepatitis can lead to cirrhosis.
Heart Disease
Chronic heavy drinking is a leading cause of heart disease. Among heavy drinkers, women are more susceptible to alcohol-related heart disease than men, even though women drink less alcohol over a lifetime than men.
Any drinking during pregnancy is risky. A pregnant woman who drinks heavily puts her fetus at risk for learning and behavioral problems and abnormal facial features. Even moderate drinking during pregnancy can cause problems. Drinking during pregnancy also may increase the risk for preterm labor.
Some women should never drink at all, including:

Small-Group Walking Tour of Prague's WWII and Communist History
- Historical walking tour of Prague's Nazi and communist sites
- Great tour for history buffs!
- Walk through Old Town and to the old Jewish quarter
- See former headquarter buildings of the Gestapo, KGB and SS
- Learn about the protests that took place on National Avenue
- Visit Wenceslas Square and the Square of the Republic
- Small-group tour limited to 20 people ensures a more personalized experience with your guide
Recent Photos of This Tour
What You Can Expect
Continue to National Avenue (Národní), which acts as a border between Old Town and New Town. Hear from your guide about the students protests that took place here against the Nazi occupation in 1939, and then the communist regime 50 years later. Then head to Wenceslas Square, one of the city's main squares and the historic center of the country's fight against communism. Picture the square as it was during the 1968 'Prague Spring,' covered with tanks and debris as the forces of the Warsaw Pact invaded the country.
Next, head to the Square of the Republic (Námestí Republiky), named for the independence of Czechoslovakia in 1918 and, ironically, the location of the Prague headquarters of the Central Committee of the Communist Party. As you walk around the square, listen to your guide tell you a bit about what went on in the city during World War II and communism. Learn how during the Nazi occupation, secret broadcast stations were set up by the Czech resistance, culminating in the 1945 Prague Uprising. And then how just three years later, the country entered communist rule.
Walk through Old Town, stopping to look up at a balcony from which the leader of the communist party announced his plan to take over the country. Next door, see the house where Albert Einstein spent time in the early 1900s during his work with the University of Prague – work that contributed to the physicist's ideas that eventually led to the invention of the atom bomb.
Then pass through the Old Jewish Cemetery, which dates back to the 15th century, before continuing your tour to the former KGB and SS (Nazi Protection Squadron) headquarters. End your tour on the waterfront, admiring the Vltava River and listening to your guide's final tale about the world's largest Stalin statue and its demise.

Martin, our guide, was fantastic. Knew lots of history. He took us into the public library of the city of Prague because I am a librarian and he thought I would be interested. I was! Very thoughtful, educated young man. Great Tour guide.

I am reading a book called "counting by 7′s" and a am getting close to finishing it. I have found a few quotes that I would like to share to everyone.
Here we go: "Only in cartoons and fairy tales and greeting cards do endings have glitter."
"I have seen trees that survive fire.
Their bark is burned and their limbs are dead branches.
But hidden under that skeleton is a force that sends a single shoot of green out into the world."
"What we expect rarely comes; what we don't expect is what happens."
"Apples grow on apple trees. And cherries grow on cherry trees. But we don't say that an acorn grows on an acorn tree.
Please comment on how you like the quotes I have found.I hope you like them!

why the price on android market changed to $0.49
I buy got price $0.99 on lenovo store...
thanks for noticing the discount, i finally bought the app after months of using it for free. definitely quill is the app i spend the most happy time with. i only hope that reorganizing pages within and across notebooks will be possible in a next version, as this is the only important feature i still miss.
How do I buy the app from the market if I've already downloaded the free version?
Everytime i try to buy it it just give me an option to open it. How do I buy it?
03-08-2012 03:11 PM - edited 03-08-2012 03:11 PM
hi, first you have to uninstall the free quill from settings/applications/all. BUT make sure you export all your notes (one by one) beforehand (preferably into the .quill backup format) as uninstalling deletes all notebooks. then you can buy and install the app from the market. and then within the app at the end of the settings menu there is a backup option where you can restore one by one all your notebooks from the .quill files. hope this helps.
OK backing all the notebooks up, uninstalling and reinstalling from the market works.
Doing so has shown me that the export and import functions really needs to be moved to the same menu as "send to evernote". Its current location is hard to find and awkward to use for multiple notebooks.
Volker1, Just a heads up, I can't export notebooks to evernote.
Also, How do i go about copying my quill backup to a more secure location?
PLEASE give us the option to turn pressure-sensing on and off. I can't stand that it's always on pressure-sensing.
Request for feature: auto dim / brightness
It would be nice to have Quill reducing its brightness after a preset time (e.g. 2 min) and upon touching the screen, returning to its normal brightness. This would reduce battery consumption without having to put the tablet to sleep, so the tablet remain readely available for note taking during long period.
Right now, I am using my tablet for note taking during meeting which can last all day long and more. However, there could be long periods during a meeting that I don't have to take notes but still need the tablet to be readely available so I can quickly write down a note if needed. By reducing brightness upon a 2 min of inactivities, this would help to make sure the battery last all day while maintaining tablet readiness.
It would need a menu under setting to preset the level of brightness when dimmed, and the time period of inactivities prior the application Quill auto dimmed to the preset.
Thanks for considering to implement such a feature.
Try using the pencil instead of the pen.
Dear Volker,
do you have any plans to support moving and/or copying pages among notebooks? If so,
on which timescale?
I'm asking because even with the new fileformat, the startup time for my monolitic notebook
has become too long for comfort and I'd like to use separate notebooks for non-interfering
topics. Currently, splitting the notebook appears to be tedious (backup, rename, restore, delete
duplicate pages individually) and I should do it, before the notebook grows even more. But if
convenient support is on the horizon, I should wait a bit more.

Mile High and dry
Tim Tebow might be big news, but he won't be able to stop Detroit winning in Denver, says Kevin Cadle.
Last Updated: 28/10/11 3:40pm
This is not going to be Prime Time by any means, but is a chance to look at another couple of young quarterbacks in action.
Matthew Stafford is in his third year with Detroit and starting to fulfil his promise, while in Denver Tim Tebow is a rookie who we have not had a real good look at yet on Sky Sports.
And trust me, he is going to make interesting viewing. The deal with Tebow is, first and foremost, he can't pass the ball. That might sound pretty serious for a quarterback, but it is not the end of the world completely.
It means Denver cannot really run a pro offense right now, but Tebow gives them so much more that makes up for it. The last four times he has played, they have scored 14 points or more in the fourth quarter, which tells you this kid has a never-say-die attitude, and will keep fighting all day long.
You cannot coach that, you cannot instil it. But you can practice at throwing the football and in time, he will become more accurate. Rookie quarterbacks are going to make plenty of mistakes anyway; I would rather have a fighter messing it up than a guy who's head is gonna drop every time he messes up.
And right now, that Denver offense has gotta cling onto any positive they can. They have just traded their best receiver, Brandon Lloyd, and their leading rusher, Willis McGahee, is sidelined with injury, so there is not much hope around Mile High I'm afraid.
But if you wanted a guy with you in the trenches, I would pick Tim Tebow over most.
Detroit have a battle of their own on their hands right now. Much like Buffalo, when they were making that great start to the season, I told people to reserve judgement and see what happened when they lost that first game. Well, the Lions lost it. And then lost the second one.
A 5-2 record is a much truer reflection of this football team and their capabilities. Stafford is a quarterback who can get the job done, but let's not forget he was out inured at the tail-end of last season, when they actually started to look like a team that could win football matches.
They are saying he is struggling this week with an ankle injury, but I think that might just be a bit of propaganda. Shaun Hill is their back-up but I would expect to see Stafford out there on Sunday night.
Jahveed Best won't be thanks to a concussion and they really could've done with tying up that trade for Ronnie Brown last week. Without Best, they don't really have a running game and although Keiland Williams will come in at running back, these back-up players are back-up players for a reason.
But, Detroit do have Calvin Johnson and to be fair, he has been outstanding all season. If he and Stafford can connect and they can get some sort of ground game going, I do think the Lions can silence what promises to be a loud Mile High crowd.
Kev's Call
Sometimes the NFL throws up games that might not be the best, but they are well worth watching - and this could be one of them. Two young quarterbacks, two struggling offenses but a whole lotta points to prove. Detroit has the edge on defense, providing they can curb that aggression that leaves them open to the run in particular, which should give them the edge overall. I know they have lost two in a row, but I still think they have the tools to go to Denver and do a job.
The Cadle Guy
Tim Tebow (Denver) - He is no Drew Brees when it comes to passing but this boy has plenty of other characteristics that will serve his team so well - and he will need all those battling qualities to give the Broncos any chance. If he had his major offensive weapons out there alongside him, he would stand a better chance, but if Denver are going to get anything here, it will be thanks to their rookie quarterback.

There are about 30,000 Virginians in state prisons, and Virginia spends more than $25,000 a year to house each of them, making the Department of Corrections the most expensive agency in Richmond, with a billion dollar annual budget.
It spends $160 million on healthcare, but critics say that care is inadequate, and some inmates could be dying for lack of medical attention. Another 30,000 people are locked up in city or county jails, and as we'll hear throughout this series, their care is also questionable.
The state of Virginia spends an average of $5,300 a year per inmate for medical care in prisons, and that cost has been rising 5-7 percent per year, but taxpayers may not be getting their money's worth, and people locked up for minor crimes could be paying with their lives.
Fifty years ago, this country began closing mental hospitals where people with psychiatric disorders were often warehoused. The idea was to send patients back to their communities, where they would live better lives with help from local mental health programs.
Unfortunately, those services were limited, and many people ended up on the streets or behind bars. Today, up to 18% of inmates in Virginia prisons are taking drugs for psychiatric conditions, and critics say some are being punished because they can't comply with prison rules.
The United States has more people in prisons and jails than any other country in the world -- 2.2 million inmates -- a 500% increase over the past thirty years.
We're also a graying society, with millions of baby boomers claiming the title of senior citizen.
Those two trends spell trouble for Virginia's prisons, as caring for a single senior behind bars can cost more than $65,000 a year.
By the end of this year, California must release 9,600 prisoners from the nation's largest correctional system, because the Supreme Court says overcrowding makes it impossible to provide adequate healthcare for inmates.
Failing to do so constitutes cruel and unusual punishment - a violation of the U.S. Constitution. Virginia's prisons are also crowded and facing a lawsuit over medical care that will be heard this spring, but on other reasons for change in the Commonwealth's correctional centers.

please report back to this thread with your findings
Based on the nature of the app, it's too much trouble for me to install either win32 or WinRT. But, given the nature of the apps, I would surmise the Modern UI is more suited to providing a more efficient and user friendly UI & UX. Particularly given the type of user likely to use it.
Of course, I believe there are many benefits to WinRT itself. Just not many devs are really taking advantage of it, and I think a lot of planning and design must go into any serious app that uses it to overcome it's shortcomings like limited in-place context menus, full or snap screen only (which if you take the time to design for it I believe is a plus). etc. Create too many menu options that require using top or bottom bar and you make your own app cumbersome to use IMO. I think Modern apps should keep in-place context menus but that just doesn't work well on tablets and phones.
