This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
An application, such as ASP in Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0, that uses COM+ to manage a thread pool may experience poor performance because COM+ does not increase the thread count in the pool. Under normal conditions, COM+ increases the threads in the thread pool up to the maximum thread limit set by the SetMaxThreads method for the package. However, if the initial worker threads in the pool are too busy, then this issue may occur.
For example, when the ASP work load on an IIS 5.0 computer increases so that each worker thread uses up a considerable amount of time to complete each request, COM+ may never create any more threads even though the work in the shared queue is always increasing, which in this case, causes ASP queuing to occur. This problem can be identified by monitoring CPU usage. This problem will show up when CPU utilization by Inetinfo is very low, usually on long blocking calls.
Under heavy load, it is possible that the thread pool monitoring thread is not spin up. When this happens, additional threads are not added as needed. The thread pool monitoring thread must always be active.

Invoking words like "pride" and "integrity," over and over again, the Broncos took their first steps out of the tumultuous tenure of Josh McDaniels Tuesday.
With four games remaining on the field, the Broncos formally introduced running backs coach Eric Studesville as the team's interim head coach, as well as making the promise to repair the organization's reputation off the field.
"Our goal is to finish the year on a promising note and make our fans proud of our team," said Broncos chief operating officer Joe Ellis. "That's what we intend to do. ... (Studesville) will do his best to make this organization proud, to make our team, our town proud over the next four weeks."
"We're going to do everything we can to make this city and the fans proud of this team," Studesville said.
Stung by a 5-17 record since their 6-0 start last season, as well as growing fan disenchantment with the Broncos' future to go with a messy a video scandal, Broncos owner Pat Bowlen fired McDaniels Monday.
And Tuesday Ellis and Studesville vowed to start to work on a long to-do list as a 3-9 team attempts to close out the fifth consecutive season without a playoff trip on something of a high note. Ellis also didn't shirk from the size of the job that is in front of team officials moving forward.
The Broncos have four games remaining, including Sunday's in Arizona to go with two homes games — Dec. 26 and Jan. 2 — to close out the season.
"Mr. Bowlen recognizes, I recognize and everybody in our organization recognizes that we have a lot of work to do to restore the integrity of our organization and the trust that the fans have in our organization."
Ellis said the Broncos have not yet mapped out how they will proceed moving forward, or who would be considered either as the team's new head coach or top football executive. Ellis did say it was "unlikely" the team's next head would have as much authority over personnel matters as McDaniels did.
Ellis did say Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway could participate in the discussions, but did not say what role Elway would have with the team in the future.
Studesville said offensive coordinator Mike McCoy will put together the Broncos gameplan for Sunday's game in Arizona and that McCoy will call plays on gameday. McDaniels had called the team's plays.
"Our expectation will be excellence, our expectation will be effort," Studesville said. "I want to get that excitement back in our players."
What Eric Studesville said:
"We're going to make some small adjustments. There are going to be some different things in our day-to-day operations of things with the intent of — we want to do some small things that pay dividends for us, that make a difference.
"I want our players to be excited walking into the building. I want them to enjoy being here. I love this game; I want them to love this game. I want them to enjoy being here and playing. We play and work for a fantastic organization and we're going to embrace that and we're going to play with that thought in our minds as we go through and we will do little things.
"But, I want to get the excitement back in our players and get them completely involved and committed to going forward and finishing up this season in the strongest possible way."
—Studesville, on how he will coach differently than Josh McDaniels
"We're going to evaluate everything with all of our players — not just Tim (Tebow). Tim is an integral part of our team and has been a productive part this season for us.
"If there is a place for any player on the team where we feel like he gives the best chance to be successful this weekend in Arizona, then we are going to utilize that, whatever that is. We are just going to evaluate every player and every situation as we go forward."
—Studesville, on the playing status of Tim Tebow
What Broncos chief operating officer Joe Ellis said:
"Yes, (this is an attractive coaching job). And I don't think the fact that we're paying who we're paying or the players and coaches that are here is going to detract from this being an attractive job.
"I believe that it is an attractive job and I believe that we can set up a structure that's attractive to the next candidate and move forward — so does (Broncos Owner) Mr. Bowlen. I understand what this has done to the organization. Mr. Bowlen understands that, but I think there are plenty of people that would be interested in this job, yes."

See Drugs Approved for Liver Cancer for more information.
New types of treatment are being tested in clinical trials.
This summary section describes treatments that are being studied in clinical trials. It may not mention every new treatment being studied. Information about clinical trials is available from the NCI Web site.
Hyperthermia therapy
Hyperthermia therapy is a type of treatment in which body tissue is exposed to high temperatures to damage and kill cancer cells or to make cancer cells more sensitive to the effects of radiation and certain anticancer drugs. Because some cancer cells are more sensitive to heat than normal cells are, the cancer cells die and the tumor shrinks.
Biologic therapy
Biologic therapy is a treatment that uses the patient's immune system to fight cancer. Substances made by the body or made in a laboratory are used to boost, direct, or restore the body's natural defenses against cancer. This type of cancer treatment is also called biotherapy or immunotherapy.
Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial.
For some patients, taking part in a clinical trial may be the best treatment choice. Clinical trials are part of the cancer research process. Clinical trials are done to find out if new cancer treatments are safe and effective or better than the standard treatment.
Many of today's standard treatments for cancer are based on earlier clinical trials. Patients who take part in a clinical trial may receive the standard treatment or be among the first to receive a new treatment.
Patients who take part in clinical trials also help improve the way cancer will be treated in the future. Even when clinical trials do not lead to effective new treatments, they often answer important questions and help move research forward.
Patients can enter clinical trials before, during, or after starting their cancer treatment.
Some clinical trials only include patients who have not yet received treatment. Other trials test treatments for patients whose cancer has not gotten better. There are also clinical trials that test new ways to stop cancer from recurring (coming back) or reduce the side effects of cancer treatment.

Fifty years from now, the sun is dying, and mankind is dying with it. Our last hope: a spaceship and a crew of eight men and women. They carry a device which will breathe new life into the star. But deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission is starting to unravel. There is an accident, a fatal mistake, and a distress beacon from a spaceship that disappeared seven years earlier. Soon the crew is fighting not only for their lives, but their sanity.

This is something that I enjoy doing and the "Personel Satisfaction Take Home Pay" is fabulous.
People are Petty
That being said, if I have a picture of a headstone that you would like to use for your tree, Please feel free to do so. Unlike smug self righteous individuals who have no idea of the spirit of helping people, I have driven thousands of miles & roamed through secluded burial grounds to help complete strangers find lost love ones. I don't do it for recognition or remuneration.
So if I can help you, I most certainly will. And if you become offended if I post Bio Info or picture (which has happened) Let me know & I will remove it. I'll also transfer memorials if they are not related to me, unlike others on here who say they won't.
My family names of interest are: Burrow, Burough, Pearce, Marler, Barnes, Cantrell, Hubbard, Meade and Boggs,

date on headstone:
Hi, you have an excellent attitude in life, I feel the same way. I want to help not fight or argue. I will gladly help anyone who needs it. Speaking of mistakes, I make a lot of them, and constantly go back and see them later. I have removed most of my family and my husband's also, people got so demanding and mean. It is a shame. Thanks for being so kind and for fixing that little mistake.

I love your message, more need to be like you. I have had people be so mean, and then I would do anything to help someone to find who they are looking for. I am a genealogist but also use this Findagrave.com a lot and don't put much of my stuff on anymore because of what you are talking about, and it has happened to me. Thank you for being so kind and generous and loving, the world is a better place because of YOU. xx

is the headstone or the birth in print on the page wrong, one says Apr. to Aug and the headstone says passed the same day, Aug to Aug. Just wondered if you realized this. I was just putting some new information in about her grandma, noticed this. Sue Mikutis Taylor.

RE: Whitaker Cemetery
I am not sure what you mean about linking them together. I only found the website accidentally this week and only became a contributor to put my mom in the system because Brian Caudill had her buried in Seco, not Tazewell. I am not familiar with the advanced capabilities of the site. In communicating with Brian I found that he was in the area and photographed the cemetery and made memorials for them. He isn't related and hasn't lived in the area. I really liked what you had included about my family members in Whitaker/ Seco Cemetery especially Odell Cantrell. I sure hope you can put them back!

Thank you
Thank you for all the hours you have put into documenting the Cantrell genealogy. I am the granddaughter of Atchie. Something to note that I never realized before my uncle, Kenny Cantrell, passed is that the birthdate on my grandfather's headstone is incorrect. I don't know why we never had it corrected. It should be Jan. 14. I suppose it really isn't significant at this point. I just recently saw my family's entries on this website and I am grateful for your work.
But thank you again!

Thank you for making the memorial for W. H. Maggard. I have been to the cemetery in Pound, VA and somewhere I have a picture of the monument, but who knows when I would have posted it. I knew his wife and son and his granddaughter is my aunt. His name was William Henry Maggard.

RE: John B. Merritt and Mamie Merritt
Dear Mr. Howard Burough, thank you so very much for transferring Rev. John B. Merritt and Sister Merritt's memorials over to my care. I certainly want to honor both of these blessed individuals by writing their BIOs and managing their memorials on their behalf so that others may know how giving and selfless they have been during their lifetime and how dedicated their lives were in the work of God. May the Lord truly bless you for all your dedicated work as a Find-A-Grave contributor.

Product Details

My All Grow'd Up cup encourages your little one to drink more liquid and feel all grown up with their very own non-spill cup.

Happy HollyDaisy have designed an elephant-shaped drinking beaker that sits in its own holder. With 3 suction pads on the holder, your child can have fun sticking their cup to windows, fridges and doors.

The cup makes an elephant sound when it's returned to its holder, which your little one will love. This also encourages them to drink more, as they'll know where to go when they're thirsty, and the cup is all theirs. When your little one has truly mastered the art of elephant trumpeting you can turn the sound off.

The All Grow'd Up cup is also brilliant for those long car journeys. With the holder secured to a window the cup is in arm's reach, so your child can be more independent and you can focus on the road. Its non-spill design means no mess and it can be washed in the dishwasher at the end of the day for your convenience.

2 x AAA batteries included. Other colours available.

Indecent Exposure is a crime which a person purposely display his or her genitals that caused an alarmed or left other people to be offended. It is committed to sexually seduce others and get a sexual response in return.
In the state of California, the person charged with indecent exposure must have the intent to sexually arouse or sexually induce others. The burden of proof is on the prosecution. These statutes broadly and vaguely makes it a crime to willfully expose your genitals to another person, with a desire to sexually satisfy yourself or offend and insult the other.
Exposing one's genitals means to show your bare genitals thus a mother who is breastfeeding a child is not considered as exposing one's genitals. another thing, if someone is flashing his or her underwear no matter how revealing it was, is not indecent exposure as prescribed in certain statutes including the statute of the state of California.
If an indecent exposure involves physical contact then it reaches the level of sexual assault.
Urinating in Public and Indecent Exposure?
It depends. If the person who was urinating in the public hide behind a dumpster outside the direct view of the public then the act was not done purposely to seduce or offend another person.
Indecent Exposure Sentences
Mostly, a person convicted with this crime will likely be charged of misdemeanor penalties like few months jail time and a fine. Second offense would give rise to a felony and may sometimes lead to a state prison sentence. In some other states, indecent exposure offenders will be included in the list of register sex offenders.

Royal Enfield motorcycle engine with 998cc by Aniket Vardhan
Royal Enfield motorcycle enthusiast are found in every corner of the world. Aniket Vardhan is one special enthusiast. He has custom built his own engine, keeping in mind
Aniket has retained the retro look of the engine design adding some chrome accents while engine block, gearbox and clutch continue to be housed independently. Its V-Twin engine uses most of the standard Royal Enfield parts such as engine head, cylinder and pistons while its neutral finder gets a right shifting gear level with brakes to the left which also adds to its retro appearance.
To ensure success in this feat, Aniket first created wooden patterns and then cast the engine case in metal which underwent stages of refinement and polishing to emerge as the all powerful 998cc Musket.Watch the video below and listen to the thump.

Film Spotlight: A Vanishing ActPosted: January 12, 2015 Filed under: Genealogy | Tags: Ireland 2 Comments
In June of 2009 a tall, thin man with closely cropped gray hair checked into a hotel in in the town of Sligo on Ireland's northwest coast. He wore dark clothes and spoke with a pronounced German accent. On the hotel's registration form, he gave his name as Peter Bergmann and an address in Vienna, Austria.
Over the next few days he kept contacts with his fellow humans sparse and to the point. On his fourth day in Sligo, he checked out of the hotel and took a bus to a quiet, pretty beach a ten-minute drive out of town. The next morning, a father and son heading out for a stroll and a swim saw something on the beach that looked like "a mannequin." When they realized what they were seeing, they said a prayer and called the police.
A short documentary film, "The Last Days of Peter Bergmann," hauntingly recreates the final hours of a man who, seemingly, just wanted to vanish.
In Sligo, "Peter Bergmann" went to methodical lengths to erase his identity. The address in Vienna was a vacant lot. He had cut every label out of every stitch of the clothing he wore. His movements at the hotel and around town can be retraced to a limited extent using closed-circuit camera footage. But large swaths of the time he spent in Sligo remained beyond the reach of security cameras. Investigators think Bergmann took great pains to ensure this. Who he really was, why he came to Sligo to die, are still unanswered questions.
His story is a compelling reminder that even in our highly trackable, highly visible modern society, a person can be as hard to trace as any 17th-century yeoman – if they want that badly enough.
"I have to be satisfied with our investigations at this time that Peter Bergmann does not exist," said Detective Superintendent John Reilly, who headed up the case. "It's highly likely that he never did."

… Scientists have apparently isolated the exact identity of the strain of pathogen that caused the devastating potato crop failures that triggered Ireland's Great Hunger of 1848-1852.
The story makes interesting reading, make no mistake about it. But honestly? As one of the millions who can trace ancestry to famine-era emigrants, I find it somewhat sad and unsettling, as well. After so much time, to know so specifically the tiny biological entity that caused so much misery … I don't know why, but it's almost like stumbling over a grave one didn't know was there.
But it's good to have the mystery cleared up, even if it does send a shiver down the spine. And it's also good to know that scientists think this discovery will help them to better understand the growth and development of new, emerging pathogens.

I was telling a friend the other day about my dad, who was a wonderful singer, a real Irish tenor, and who was also kind of terrifying when it came to Irish music. And Irish accents. And Irish everything.
It was all about the authenticity. I wouldn't say my dad was a stickler for Aran-Islands style authenticity in these matters. But I suspect he knew what he knew — the accents of his Irish-born maternal grandparents, and the kind of Irish immigrant culture you used to find all over Red Hook once upon a time. And he was a merciless critic about Irish music that was not being done right.
Whatever that meant. I mean, we were all Americans, what did we know, really?
I was about to go away to college when I screwed up the courage to ask him for his version of "The Wild Colonial Boy." He considered for a bit and said he'd see. I expected him to sing it for me, if he were to agree. But at the end of the working day he presented me with a typewritten version of the verses, which is the version I use to this day. (For more thoughts on the "Wild Colonial Boy," see link below).
Every so often, through the magic of YouTube, I encounter some Irish music I believe even my dad would have loved. This year's St. Patrick's Day offering is a crystalline version of a song called "Love is Teasing," sung in 1967 by a radiant Dolly McMahon.

Please Order Your Green Mini-Bagels by Friday, read the sign in my local bagel bakery a few days ago.
"Thanks for the warning," I muttered darkly. I went home complaining about how many shades of wrong that was, all of them green, only to be interrupted by the offspring.
"Green bagels? They're great! We had them at the class party last year," said the younger one.
"Can we get some for lunch tomorrow, Mom?" asked the older one.
It was almost enough to make me pack black pudding in their lunchboxes, I tell you. But green-tinted foods are the cross we bear here in the States on St. Patrick's Day. A non-negotiable symbol, however much I'd wish otherwise. Therefore, I take refuge in seasonal blog posts that are blessedly free of green food dye.
• Speaking of non-negotiable symbols, here's a shamrock story from a Tipperary storyteller.
• Findmypast.ie has seasonal appeal, a fine excuse for me to poke around over there again.
• Irish Genealogy News updates us on the National Archives of Ireland's catalogue of calendars of grants of probate of wills and letters of administration, 1858-1912.
• Deborah at Help! The Faerie Folk Hid My Ancestors posts a touching video of a re-interment service in Pennsylvania for victims of the Duffy's Cut debacle of 1832 — a horrifying story of cholera, violence and neglect among impoverished railroad workers. It is good to know that at least some of the dead from this long-ago disaster have been given a ceremonial burial.
• Tonight GeneaBloggers Radio has a dynamic panel of experts (more about them here) to talk about Tracing Your Irish Roots. Check out the show (at 9 p.m. Eastern).
• And if you are still indecisive about your St. Patrick's Day celebration plans, let the Archaeologist help! Make some brown bread. Or even slumgullion, if the supermarket is sold out of corned beef. Learn how not to sing The Wild Colonial Boy. We are nothing if not helpful here.

Irish Marriages and Deaths: A Nifty WorkaroundPosted: January 23, 2012 Filed under: Genealogy | Tags: Ireland, newspapers 2 Comments
Tom Kemp at the GenealogyBank blog notes that the New York City-based newspaper The Irish American published regular reports of marriages and deaths in Ireland between 1849 to 1914. This does not sound like a definitive listing, but apparently the listings occur often enough, and in enough quantity, to be notable. Civil registration in Ireland did not begin until 1864.
The newspaper is searchable through GenealogyBank, which is a subscription service, but is also often accessible through public libraries.
Irish Family History: The Other 'Hungers'Posted: April 20, 2011 Filed under: Genealogy | Tags: Immigrants, Ireland Leave a comment
Last Saturday here in the Northeast was cold, rainy and windy; not charming. Fortunately I was warm, dry and inside, listening to a day of lectures on Irish family history at Emigrants and Exiles: An Irish Family History Symposium at Drew University in Madison, NJ. Among them was Professor Christine Kinealy's talk on why Irish people left Ireland and why, as she said, "the Famine is only part of the story."
Co-sponsored by Drew's Caspersen School of Graduate Studies and the Genealogical Society of New Jersey, this conference contained an ideal mix of individual case histories and broader historical perspectives. And the talk by Kinealy, who teaches at Drew, was a great example in the second category.
Kinealy is actually an expert on the Great Hunger of 1845-52, so the title of her talk was intriguing. A key point was that the Great Hunger, while certainly the biggest, was just one of many disasters to hit Ireland over the years. In the 18th century alone, for instance:
1717-18: Drought.
1725-29: Generalized economic downturn; "poverty, wretchedness, misery and want" force a wave of Scots-Irish emigration from Ulster.
1740-41: Famine (concurrent with a "Little Ice Age").
1754: Another drought.
1771-75: More poverty and evictions, resulting in between 25,000-30,000 emigrations, mostly Presbyterians.
These dates are particularly important for descendants of Irish families (like my husband's) who emigrated prior to the 19th century. As a couple of the lecturers mentioned, if your Irish left Ireland in the 18th century, there's a good bet they were Scots-Irish. Within a hundred years of the era in which the British established Protestant "plantations" in Ireland, economic and agricultural downturns forced many of these families' descendants to emigrate, mainly to North America.
As researcher Clare Keenan Agthe noted, there's a rule-of-thumb emigrant timeline drawn from patterns noted by Irish researchers, to wit:
1600s: Native Irish
1700s and early 1800s: Scots-Irish
Mid-1800s: Native Irish
It's only a general guideline, of course. However, for those just starting out on their Irish adventures, these lesser-known timelines are worth keeping in mind. It's easy to assume our people left in the Great Famine years because, so often, it's true — how could it not be, with such a massive population shift? But it's also possible that they left at other times, for other reasons.
Irish history is like that.
(I'll be posting other tips from this conference as I go through my notes. There was so much great information and — by the way — Megan Smolyenak dropped by to show everybody how to give a great genealogy lecture and be funny while you're at it!)

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Ed Owen, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Friday, 04 March 2011 01:33PM
The survey of 2,062 people revealed just 32% of people quizzed were even aware that Ofcom's rules had changed to allow product placement.
Product placement in UK-produced programming was permitted from Monday, with Nestle's Dolce Gusto brand the first to be featured, on ITV's 'This Morning'.
More than a third (36%) said they did not even know what product placement was, but 73% admitted to having seen product placement in US TV shows and films – 17% "all the time", 40% "just occasionally" and 16% "rarely".
As far as the UK was concerned, 50% were indifferent to the introduction of product placement.
Under a quarter (23%) thought its introduction was negative, 7% said it was "very bad" and just 14% regarded it as positive.
Of those who had noticed product placement "all the time", 34% considered it to be negative.
Seven-tenths (70%) of respondents said their perceptions of a brand would not change if they saw it on a TV show or film.
Adele Gritten, head of media consulting at YouGov, said: "What, where, when and how product messages are placed will be key, and marketers need to be cautious of alienating, rather than attracting, potential brand advocates, and of overt intrusion into the viewing experience.
"However, consumers accept the commercial realities of the day and the currently planned changes are unlikely to detract from viewer enjoyment overall. Time will tell as to which brands get the correct channel/programme fit and which ones nurture the right kind of relationship with their viewers, rather than simply bombarding them."
ITV was considered the most "appropriate" channel to carry product placement, with 30% of respondents approving its use, closely followed by Dave on 29%.
MTV and Discovery were deemed the least appropriate, with just 9% and 8% respectively, in favour.
The product considered most appropriate to place was milk, cited by 39% of respondents, followed by "other foods" on 38%.
Those polled were less enthusiastic about product placement for cereals or health and beauty items, with just 19%, 13% and 8% of respondents, respectively, approving of its use.
Several brands are known to be lining up to sign deals with various broadcasters, but Channel 4 and ITV are said to be cautious about opening up high-profile soaps, such as 'Coronation Street', 'Emmerdale' and 'Hollyoaks', to product-placement deals.

According to media reports, the House GOP leadership is pressing to complete a "Big Four" list of issues before the upcoming August recess: a vote on the supplemental request to deal with the influx of unaccompanied minors across our border; reform of the embattled Department of Veterans Affairs; reauthorization of the federal Terrorism Risk Insurance Act; and passage of a short-term continuing resolution to keep government funded and operating at current levels into the new fiscal year, which starts Oct. 1.
Notice what's not on this list? That's right: Any mention of acquisition or IT reform. But there may yet be a glimmer of hope.
To date, the House has passed seven of the 12 annual appropriations bills. The House has also passed versions of the Federal IT Procurement Reform Act (FITARA) -- twice, in fact.
The Democratic-led Senate, meanwhile, has not passed a single appropriations bill -- though that count is a tad misleading. The Senate Appropriations subcommittees have completed action on and voted out a number of funding measures. The Senate leadership, however, has not brought them to a floor vote for fear that Republicans will attach amendments (e.g., EPA regulation of coal emissions) that will either draw enough Democratic votes to pass or put Democratic senators up for re-election in difficult positions with their constituents.
Still, legislators in both parties and both chambers agree that a stopgap spending bill must happen -- and what provides the raw materials for crafting a CR? The funding levels agreed to last year are critical, of course, but it also helps to have pre-existing legislative vehicles -- bills that have previously passed floor votes or have emerged with strong majorities from committee. Most of us are quite familiar with what is in FITARA, which could qualify. But we should also take a hard look at what is in the Senate's fiscal 2015 Financial Services and General Government appropriations bill and draft report.
There are several provisions in the bill and draft report to improve how the federal government purchases and uses information technology, including funding for Office of Management and Budget efforts to improve use of IT tools to maximize government effectiveness. Here are some other IT reform highlights:
It's too early to tell, of course, exactly what legislation might move as part of the CR. But must-pass funding bills have advanced IT reform before, and it's worth watching this year as well.

"The Senate leadership, however, has not brought them to a floor vote for fear that Republicans will attach amendments (e.g., EPA regulation of coal emissions) that will either draw enough Democratic votes to pass or put Democratic senators up for re-election in difficult positions with their constituents. " Wow political games at its most devious. Won't bring to floor vote for fear there might be enough democrat defectors to pass it. Is that not the will of the people when a majority of their representatives want something? I am sick of this Senate thwarting the people of this country. Also, after the president's grandstanding about how poorly the IT community performed on HealthCare.gov, he didn't offer any money to make things right. Can't make changes without money folks. It has never and will never happen. Where did all the money go (don't give me this "wars" crap)? Maybe the 2009 $787B democrat spending bill for "shovel ready projects" and infrastructure upgrades should have peeled off a few $B for IT modernization. Where did that money go and is there any left.

5 Steps to Transform Your Relationship with Stress
Chronic multitasking and ever-increasing demands on our time and energy have caused a neurochemically-based dependence on sources of stress and stimulation to provide fuel for our chaotic lifestyles. While this may boost performance in the short-term, studies have consistently shown that when stress hormones are elevated over time they create the worst form of internal wear and tear; decreasing productivity, wasting time, and even killing brain cells. As a result, modern society is tired and wired, suffering from physical exhaustion while mentally amped up, and unable to get adequate rest.
Stress in and of itself is not bad, and is actually utilized for growth when balanced with adequate recovery. The solution to stress addiction is to build in and prioritize optimal rest and relaxation on a holistic level—body, mind, and spirit—in order to consistently recharge and create a more resilient operating system.
Stressaholic shows you how to win the war on stress without limiting progress by creating an optimal performance pulse of stress and recovery for life.
- Explains the impact of chronic stress on the human operating system; body, mind, and spirit
- Shows how a simple shift in mindset can dramatically alter physiological responses to stress
- Reveals simple techniques for altering daily stress patterns to improve natural rhythms, creating a personalized performance pulse
With easy to implement tips and real-world examples of people and organizations that have turned stress into sustainable drive, Stressaholic will guide you on your journey from exhaustion to enlightenment!less

The cleanup continues following a fire at the Renville County Food Shelf and Red Cross building in Olivia Sunday night, and the food shelf is making preparations to re-open in the future. The fire started at around 8:30 Sunday night, and when firefighters arrived the building was completely engulfed in flames. It has been declared a total loss, and investigators have determined that the fire was intentionally set. A $2,500 reward is being offered for information on those responsible. No one was hurt in the fire, and the Renville County Food Shelf has been offered a space for use in Olivia, but it will reportedly take some time before they are operational again. Second Harvest Food Bank will be helping restock the shelves of the food shelf, and donations are now being accepted at the banks in Olivia.

Dungeon Spirit
From Terraria Wiki
Dungeon Spirit
|Flying Enemy
|AI Type
|Dungeon Spirit AI
|Max Life
|KB Resist
|Item (Quantity)
|Ectoplasm (1-2, 1-3 )
|Internal NPC ID: 288
A Dungeon Spirit is a small Hardmode flying enemy that can go through walls and drops Ectoplasm. They will not spawn until you have defeated the hardmode Jungle boss, Plantera.
After defeating Plantera, whenever you defeat an enemy with more than 100 health points in the hardmode Dungeon there is a 6.67% (1/15) chance of a Dungeon Spirit spawning. Even non-dungeon enemies might spawn one, as the location is the defining factor, not the monster itself.
On the mobile version, after Plantera's defeat, any enemy, regardless of health, has a 1 in 13 (1 in 9 for Expert Mode) chance of spawning a Dungeon Spirit.
They are immune to the Confused debuff.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- An easy way to farm Dungeon Spirits is to make a mob farm using a Shark Statue or a Chest Statue, as Sharks and Mimics have 300 and 500 max health respectively, making them eligible to spawn a dungeon spirit when in the dungeon. During Halloween the Skeleton Statue will spawn one third of the skeletons with more than 100 HP as well.
- Another easy way to farm Dungeon Spirits is to find or place a water candle in a large room that has many tunnels leading into it and use the Piranha Gun on enemies, because when an enemy is killed and a Dungeon Spirit spawns, the piranha will bounce onto it.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- If you have an active Wisp in a Bottle, the Dungeon Spirit may blend in and be mistaken as the Wisp, as they look very similar.
History[edit | edit source]
- 188.8.131.52: Spawn chance Increased.
- 1.2.1: Spawn chance reduced.
- 188.8.131.52: Spawn chance reduced, max Ectoplasm dropped reduced from 3 to 2.
- 1.2: Introduced.

Publisher's Description
Death was sleeping all around us. I could feel her in the high cries of uncomfortable babies and the low moans of old men as they fight the pain and discomfort of dysentery. This would be a trip through hell, and perhaps some unfortunate souls on this boat would make not make it out alive as is often the case on the Congo River. Perhaps, we all knew that some of us wouldn't all arrive at our destination and that we would meet our Lord, our Maker, here on this black river of death and hope. Death and hope. Can it be one and the same? With this river, the answer is yes. People lived and died under the power of this powerful river every single day. It was now my turn to make this journey on its surface. Despite my deepest fears, I feel the warm breeze of God's grace lingering around me in the air. Yes, hope is a powerful element in each of our hearts and that is what everyone here now clings onto tightly and with both fists, even if it means kissing death right on the lips.

My Personal Motivation!
It all began with a very innocuous little post I made on Facebook at the weekend. As is my fortnightly habit I'd been updating my computer with the latest photographs of my kids, Roman and Mia, and I found one I particularly liked. Being a gushing parent of a bouncing baby and a terrifying toddler I emailed a couple of shots to my family, and then thought I'd also share an image on Facebook with the followers of our UP personal training page. My children are the best thing I have ever done and I feel so blessed to be able to derive so much joy and fulfillment from them (of course, I am also counting down with dread the days until my beloved Roman becomes a sulky, temperamental teenager!), and it isn't overstating the case to say that they provide me with my biggest and most tangible inspiration. Not to sound like an evangelical nutter or anything, but they are my personal motivation technique to keep me striving to be the very best and most productive that I can be, and I thought a little insight into my mindset might be educational / entertaining for those who follow my ramblings.
So up went the photograph you see above you, and onto the page went my accompanying wise guru comment:
"Motivation is the key to success in the gym, on your diet, and in life in general. This is MY motivation that never ceases to lift me up and strive to be the best I can be. I even derive a little mental trick out of it that I use to help me to train much harder in the gym…if we get 50 likes I'll tell you my "secret", and if we get 100 likes I'll put up a video of me training that shows it in action (gulp!) and me having to train like a madman.â€
Now in the realms of Facebook, 50 "likes†isn't bad and 100 "likes†is really rather good. Unless of course you are Megan Fox, and then you can make the lamest statement about the right emotional way to play online role playing games and you'll get 13,000 comments and 20,000 likes (I kid you not)! For some reason I can't fathom out, she has 20 million more followers than me…
To be fair I expected 50 "likesâ€, and that it would maybe get close to 100, but I was shocked / amused / pleased / frightened when I returned from a long walk to see that in an hour just over 130 people wanted to watch a video of me putting myself through a world of pain and learn about my little motivational techniques for exercise! The worm had turned on the personal trainer and it looked like it was going to be time to swallow my own medicine!
The next training day just happened to be a legs day, and a strength session, so lucky me got to adapt the workout accordingly as a mere one to four rep max type attempt isn't really "madman†stuff that requires super mental motivation. It might be if you are a monster lifter, but my days of huge weights are behind me as 40 years of age creeps ever closer for November 2012. In fact, I suffered a severe, non gym related, ankle injury 5 years ago and the limitations this has given to my lower body and posterior chain workouts are manifest, as the restricted range of motion in the ankle has negative knock-on implications for my knee as it tries to accommodate the inflexible ankle, which then impacts my hip, which in turn gives me a certain fragility in the lower back! This is why I never squat, and if I really must do so (for example when it's the best way to fulfill a foolish promise!) I have devised a way that causes me very little discomfort.
As you will see in the accompanying video (below) the only way for me to squat without knee and back pain is to elevate my heels (taking out a bit of the ankle flexibility issue), use a Safety Squat Bar (that allows me to stay more upright and focus on better form, by not pushing me too far forward and bringing my hips and erector spinae into play as much), and by using reverse bands so that I get a deload effect in the bottom position. I find this last trick has two positive ramifications. Firstly I don't have any cause to wrap my knees and therefore limit compression of the patella, whereas on any other type of squatting movement my knees hurt unless I wrap them, and secondly the bands assist in keeping me in a more upright position that really protects my lower back. And yes, if I was a pro athlete I'd find a way to fix the ankle and not have to go through all this rigmarole, but I can't spare the ongoing 2-4 hours a week necessary to achieve this and keep everything stable and flexible. I am just like the rest of you, pulled in a hundred different directions by the pressures of life, with just enough time in the day to get my four times a week workouts under my belt.
And as for my motivational technique / trick, watch the video and you'll understand why I have no choice but to give a real 100% effort. Gym training is one of those things where you hit a point of perceived failure, but very often, with just a marshalling of mental reserves you can go on and hit more reps, or just exercise that little bit harder for that little bit longer. All of which can accumulate to massively quicker progress. I simply imagine that one of my inspirations in life is watching me and under no circumstances whatsoever can I let them down. Try this with your own personal inspirational / motivational person and see what it does to your workouts!
As usual I hope that you enjy this and found it useful for your own motivation techniques for exercise and life in general. Â Please feel free to leave any comments, and if you liked the video then please use the "like" button on the left of this screen.

I've never thought of that trick while actually training, yet I have used it in so many other things I do. Awesome advice. Classic music choice too – proper pumped up stuff!
My boy is my best motivation. I imagine he is down to my right watching me and then all I can think is "Come on Nick, don't be a pussy!".
Brilliant, and great and perfect motivation. Â Somehow, the soundtrack was strangely apt. Â I've never seen a rack like that before, we have the standard affair. Â My motivation is somewhat faltering at the moment so its always good to see what motivates others. Â Good stuff.Â
haha – glad you liked the soundtrack. I don't like training videos of myself, I am not Jay Cutler! So a bit of humour never amiss I feel.
Hey Nick, fantastic video. Loved the trick used for that little bit extra, so simple and so effective. Since I last posted on here i found out my wife is expecting a little girl in March. Motivation dropped to zero recently for god knows what reason and this was a perfect kick up the jacksie I needed to get my arse in gear. Deffo gonna take a photo of my boy in next time and can't wait to see peoples faces in my gym when they see me squating next to it heh.
Keep up the good work.
Congratulations Martyn! I don't normally use a framed photo of Romi, you have to allow me a bit of dramatic license! However, I do very often imagine him down at my right hand side looking up at me…it works a treat.
Hi Nick,Â
Great stuff, with some excellent weights on that rack.
I also use thoughts of my two children to motivate me as well.Â
But my main motivation when things get tough with the weights, or at the end of a run when I don't think I've got anything else in the tank is my mother. She passed away just over a year ago after fighting the horrible illness that is Motor Neurone Disease for over two years. for about the last 6 months she couldn't eat or talk, but she never complained about her situation. She was brave and a fighter to the end. So when I think things are tough, I bring a picture of her to mind and that gets me through the difficult press, or pull or the last 1km. Positive attitude and motivation goes a long way to help us pass the barriers that we think exist.
Thanks for sharing that story Mark. It is both inspiring and humbling.
Great video Nick! Thank you!
I've been having some success with shouting at myself (in my head) and listening to some obnoxious metal before squatting, gets me nice and angry. I think with the addition of imagining you standing next to the rack will definitely keep me going for those extra reps.
Obnoxious 80s rock is my usual choice of music Rich! And if imagining me growling at you works then that's brilliant. Whatever motivation technique is best!
Tried it out yesterday. I was on the floor by the end of the 3rd giant set, imagined yourself stood there yelling at me, got up and hit that final set. I'll say now what I've been saying all day; Ouch, thanks Nick…
Bring on the next session!
Best wishes,
That has made me laugh Rich! Nice one.
Hi Nick!
Gorgeous photo!
Mia is stunning! remins me of my daughter Maya…
You better keep training those guns to fight the boys off when they come knocking!
On a side note I also found a clip of the FUNNIEST gym advert ever! Great watching if you have 3 minutes!
Nice one David. What areyour own best motivation techniques for exercise?
My daughter Maya hands down is the best motivation!
– not so much as in working hard for her, but working hard to be a better person and subsequent parent for her… she is my inspiration! -and not just to do with training in the gym ,but in every aspect of my life.
In saying this, IÂ think parenting can go one of two ways:
-it can inspire you to be better
-it can re-inforce your fear
just depending on where your heads at…
Some phospholipids + creatine also seem to amp up the motivation but that is different!
Hi Nick,
Forgot to mention a few favourite motivation techniques for exercise!
I like quotes pertaining to empowering philosophies…
        'Be the change you wish to see in the world.' (MKGhandi)
        'Life is hard if you live it the easy way and easy if you live it the hard way.' (Joe Pollack)
        …and my favourite: "No citizen has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training… what a disgrace it is for a man (or woman) to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.â€Â (Socrates)
I hope I answered your question now.
Fun stuff, Nick!
My motivation:Â My
dear friend that survived surgery and radiation treatments for cancer during his
med school finals without complaint. Not only did he write every final, he
placed at the top of his class. Oh and for good measure, he placed in the
world powerlifting championships just weeks after he finished radiation
treatments (he wasn't really up to it but didn't want to let down his team).
When it's too heavy, it's
too hard, or I'm not feeling up to it I tell myself to shut the f*** up, get on
with it and be the best at what I'm doing – anything less is simply
unacceptable. This is my motivation for all things in life!
Totally agree with this Adina. There is no point in wasting a second that we have on this earth with anything less than our best efforts.
