This is a guest post from WC, a guy in Chicago that writes about money at The Writer's Coin.
In May, I will celebrate my two-year anniversary with M, my favorite person in the world. I thought I knew a lot about everything before we got married, but now I'm wiser. So for all the newlyweds out there, or the ones thinking of walking the plank getting married, here are some things you should know.
There is no I. Marriage is all about the "we". It's not "your" money or "my" money, it's "our" money. It isn't your retirement, it's our retirement. It's not an easy concept to grasp, but you'd better adjust because when you get married you really don't have a choice. The sooner you accept it, the easier it will be. Don't fight it…As you'll see, this will become a recurring theme throughout your married life.
There is no "right" way to do things. When M and I got married, I checked my bank and credit card accounts every day. M did not — she just made sure there was always money left in her account at the end of the month. When I showed her my method, she was taken aback, but she saw some use to it.
So we found a middle ground: we sit down and run through our budget midway through the month and at the end. It gives us a checkup halfway through and then at the end we check to make sure we met all our goals. It's like a challenge and it works for us.
Maybe you use a fancy spreadsheet you run through every month that tells you exactly where your money is going. Or maybe you use Mint to track your spending. Or you might be one of those people that does it all in their head — no paper trail necessary.
Either way, it might be the way you do things, but that doesn't mean it'll be the way we do things. You will have to adjust and find a way of doing things that works for both of you.
Saving is saving, no matter how you do it. Being a big fan of I Will Teach You to Be Rich, I used to open multiple high yield savings account sub-accounts with specific names for whatever it was I was saving for. It's called targeted saving, and I thought it was a great idea.
If something unexpected happens, you take money out of the emergency fund and you still get to make your budget. It's all a psychological thing to keep you feeling like you're on track.
I showed M the system and she gave me a look: "What's the point? It's all the same amount of money either way." She was right and I started to question how useful the whole system was. In the end, it didn't make the cut — we didn't find it useful enough for the time it took to set up. I thought it was a great idea, but M was right: it's still the same amount of money. End of discussion.
The important thing is that we were saving, regardless of how we did it.
Falling in love is good for the budget. It's called economies of shared living, and it means you'll spend less money when you split the cost with another person.
But you'll still need to set up a budget that works for the both of you.
I used to use my credit card for everything. It tracked all my spending and gave me some decent rewards. M, on the other hand, liked to have cash in hand. But I wanted to get her to budget, and my system of simply knowing how much you'd already spent (remember by daily checking of accounts?) just wasn't going to work for her.
But she felt the pressure to find a system that worked for her so we could meet our budget every month. And she did: the envelope system. She took out the money she had allotted for the week and then stopped spending if she ran out of money.
As for me, I still use my credit card like I did before. This was one thing we were able to keep individualized, which is important when you get married (we still have individual accounts outside of our joint account). With all the push to turn I into we, it's good to have your own things you can do how you want.
The important thing is that you have a budget in the first place.
Cooking together is a great idea. You get to spend time together, it's good for the budget, it's healthier, and it creates some equality in an area where traditionally it's one person doing all the cooking.
In most relationships, one person does all the cooking. Maybe you have an arrangement where the person that doesn't cook does the dishes to make up for it. That's fine — but I would recommend trying to spend a fair amount of time in the kitchen with your significant other.
It'll give you a good environment to work together towards a common goal — making a good meal. Things can get tense in the kitchen, but that's the whole point — you'll learn from it and when something more serious than overcooked lasagna happens, you'll have the tools to handle it.
Plus it's fun.
Communicate. Marriage isn't easy, especially when you're talking about money. But even if none of the other stuff I've mentioned clicks with you, then you should at least take one thing with you from this post: communication is key.
You might not track your money or save anything or cook together. But you better communicate or else your marriage is going to be a train wreck.
'Til death. I've been married for just under two years, but I can still remember what it was like to deal with money on my own: You think you have all the answers and you treat everything the way a dictator would. You're never wrong and everyone else sucks.
Marriage has introduced democracy into my decision making and I'm grateful for it. It's made me smarter, wiser, and less of a jerk.

County may use work release center as jail annex
by Sarah Fay Campbell
Coweta County's Work Release Center, located at the Coweta County Prison on Selt Road, may be used to house certain low-level offenders from the Coweta County Jail.
Using the work release center to increase jail capacity was one of many facilities issues discussed Thursday at the annual work session meeting of the Coweta County Board of Commissioners.
Sheriff Mike Yeager said parts of the work release center could be used to house inmates who are in the jail for violation of probation and for child support issues.
Associate County Administrator Eddie Whitlock presented the "executive summary" of the facilities needs assessment.
"There are some issues going on with how to fully utilize the work release center," said Whitlock. "There's the possibility of using a portion of the facility there to deal with any kind of overcrowding issues we may have at the county jail."
There are several projects planned at the jail. The demolition of the "old jail" building is set for this fall. The facility was formerly the home of the drug task force, but it has been used for storage since the opening of the eastside precinct. In June, plans are to begin remodeling the bonding area and there will be some additions to and remodeling of the patrol division and some new holding cells.
The creation of "video visitation" and the expansion of the infirmary are set for late this year or 2015. And "at some point down the road we're possibly looking at a precinct on the west side," Whitlock said.
Several years ago, a needs assessment was done at the jail. "At some point, we're going to have to" expand the jail itself, according to Whitlock. But how much space will be needed and when isn't known.
"There is a trend in the justice system of not housing" non-violent and violation of probation offenders, Whitlock said. And that is helping extend the life of the existing jail.
Whitlock said Yeager thinks the current jail might be adequate for about five more years. "But we certainly need to have a plan in place and have some funding identified for another housing unit at the current location." The county has bought five acres adjacent to the jail and there will be space for two housing units.
Yeager said his needs assessment shows "we need two phases."
Yeager said he's talked for years about using part of the work release center as a jail annex. "If would be a great benefit to have those beds." If the move could free up 50 "hard beds, we could go a little while longer."
Yeager said that once the old jail is demolished, he'd like to see a security perimeter around the additional five acres.
The current jail was built in 1991. The jail was built quickly, under a federal judge's order. "We're finding that out, as we're trying to do additions and renovations, that we've got a building that didn't take but 10 months to build," Yeager said.

Each Flower Farmhouse Jug is individually hand-painted to order and there are three different styles, Lavender, Lily of the Valley and Snowdrop. Many ceramic products that you can buy and that are advertised as 'hand-painted' are actually produced using transfers. Each ceramic piece that I sell really is individually hand-painted. As a result, all my pieces are slightly different and therefore unique. Because of their exclusively hand-made nature, they take a full five days to produce, each piece having two painting stages and up to three firings in the kiln. All can be personalised with an inscription of up to six words on the jug itself and also with a six word greeting on the base. (eg. 'Love from John and Mary Smith') All the lettering is painted using upper and lower-case letters. Each item is beautifully packaged in a special brown cardboard box, tied up with string and labeled with the name of the person who will be receiving it. Because you will almost certainly want to inspect your jug before passing it on as a gift, the packaging has no glue or tape and can easily be opened up and re-closed. The box will still look as unique and beautifully designed when the gift is opened as when it was first delivered. made from: These jugs are made from earthenware clay, painting and glazing in lead free glazes.

The Next Big Idea From Twitter's Founders? Pinterest, Basically
Evan Williams and Biz Stone are launching a familiar-looking service called Medium. Here's why tile layouts like Pinterest's are becoming the go-to design strategy for emotional heft.
Evan Williams and Biz Stone think their new site, Medium, could mark an "evolutionary step" in web publishing. It's a lofty aim. And if the two weren't responsible for Twitter (and Blogger before that), we probably wouldn't have much faith in them. But their new venture, a platform for collecting and displaying stories, images, musings and more, isn't just noteworthy for its web-visionary pedigree. It's got something else going for it. It looks just like Pinterest.
In a sense, Medium's intended to be a Pinterest for our own lives, an elegant repository for photos, projects, and stories we've actually lived, as opposed to a re-blogged clearing house for pictures of wedding dresses and eggs baked into avocados found elsewhere around the web. Here's how Medium works: A user posts an item and assigns it to a collection. Collections are presented as a series of tiles laid out in a clean grid. Some sample collections already live on the site include When I Was a Kid, a series of childhood images, and This Happened To Me, a collection of amusing, inspiring, or unlikely real world anecdotes. Readers can peruse other people's posts, note that they thought a particular item was cool and leave a comment, or, if the collection is open to the public, add their own content to the page. The most popular tiles get prominent placement up top. Basically, Medium combines the noncommittal ease of posting to Facebook or Tumblr with the strange allure of Pinterest's tile-based layout.
Okay, maybe the allure isn't so strange. After a decade and change of wearing out our scroll wheels on vertically oriented blogs, Pinterest arrived as something strikingly different. Unlike those earlier blogs which put every new post above the last and encouraged readers to flick through at top-speed, the Pinterest-style grid forces the eye to zig-zag through content, slowing down your scrolling but packing more images onto the screen at any given point. David Galbraith, the web giant who co-created RSS and Yelp, wrote recently for GigaOM about his experience developing Wists, a grid-style visual bookmarking site that predated Pinterest. Comparing the grid-style layout with the traditional "river of news" model, he writes, "they look pretty, but require scanning in two directions. This is not good for news, where you need to understand the timeline at a glance. However, for scanning thumbnails, a grid is particularly efficient."
The inherent inefficiency of tiles might seem like a failing. But then again, consider that the very ease of whizzing past so much content using a vertical scroll is a problem in itself: It doesn't lend itself to lingering a while. It doesn't lend itself to emotional heft, but rather transactional speed. By contrast, the tile-based layout urges the user to consider objects as a group instead of discrete items. For Medium, this may be just the point: The tightly packed tiles serve to visually reinforce the idea that these photos and stories are part of a collection. If you're flicking through a blog, a 200-word story titled "Beat-boxing saves lives" probably wouldn't grab your attention. But when it's a tile in a collection headed "This Happened To Me," you automatically have a context that makes it a bit more compelling.
There's also something about the grid and tiles, on a visceral level, that just feels more cohesive and still lively. Where the standard river of news-style blog post comes with all the traditional blog trappings—headlines, timestamps, bylines, and the rest—grids put all the focus on the content. It's equal parts organized and overwhelming. There's so much visual stuff on your screen, you can't help but feel like someone has designed the experience for you. The tiles impart a sense of curation—and thus, human emotion—to the content.
If you need further evidence of the Pinterest-ization of the web, look no further than Facebook. While the News Feed is still a pure river of news experience, Facebook's much-ballyhooed Timeline profiles are distinctly more tiled in appearance, even though they're still organized reverse-chronologically. On Facebook's newly redesigned photo pages, the Pinterest influence is even more apparent. The thumbnails are bigger, the borders between them are smaller, and options for liking or commenting materialize on top of the tiles as you float your cursor above them, just like they do on Pinterest.
Medium's vision of the web's tiled future may be right on the mark, and as readers continue to migrate from mouse-bound desktops to trackpads and touch screens, the informationally dense experience offered by the tile format—one predicated on scanning as much as scrolling—will likely continue to thrive. Still, there are times when the tried-and-true river just makes more sense. Take a look at Medium's own About page, and you get the idea that tiles can actually end up obscuring content, especially when it comes to text. Scanning may be easier than scrolling, but scrolling's still easier than scanning and clicking, and that extra click is necessary any time you want to jump from a short text preview to a full story or blog post.
It's no small irony that Medium, a bold step into a tiled future, is being made by Williams and Stone, along with former Twitter product lead Jason Goldman. Twitter took the river of news concept and turned it into something like a fire hose: all the content, all the time, with very little curation outside of who you chose to follow. The emerging popularity of tile-based layouts could even be seen as a response the breakneck speed and Sisyphean scrolling engendered by the Twitter timeline.
Currently, anyone with a Twitter account can log in to Medium to browse collections, though posting is currently limited to a small group of test users. Whether it will achieve the popularity of Twitter or Pinterest remains to be seen. But at the very least, it'll be a beautiful way to look at everyone's Instagram photos.

Hello There. I found your weblog the use of msn.Triathlon swimming trainers sydney This is a really smartly written article.I will be sure to bookmark it and come back to learn extra of your helpful info. Thank you for the post.
Lazy journalism.
Right, so because it has a grid, it's a ripoff of Pinterest? Don't right about web design if you don't know what you're talking about.
You're right, it's a Pinterest rip-off. Sort of like how this publication ripped off that other site that has a content column and a right-hand sidebar...
So, it's a re-designed tumblr (in which the tile/grid layout is pretty popular?)
Please... stop referring to Pinterest as the mother of all grids! Grids were around centuries before Pinterest...
Print Yellow Pages is the mother of grid column layouts... 150 years old that is.
mmm, seems pretty useless to me. If you want to share pictures, you already have Pinterest (...and chances are your friends will be there already). If you want to post texts...you have Tumblr, which by the way offers some layouts that are also grid-based. (now, if they would just improved their search function...).
One of the poorest Co.Design articles I have ever read. To think that Pinterest came up with a flexible image based grid architecture is ludicrous.
You could argue Pinterest is Twitter with pictures.
So if they want to make what seems like Pinterest combined with FB's timeline, all is fair in love and the internet!
Yay another social site to post pictures and make funny notes. Just what the web was missing!
You make it sound like you've never seen a grid before (DeSandro should get credit for this one not Pinterest) and let's talk about maybe what Medium is doing / could do for the social web.
Read Anil Dash's thoughts on what matters-
this exists already... it's called jux.com
One of the worst articles Co.Design has ever published. Medium does look interesting, and certainly deserves some attention. However, not at the expense of being linked with Pinterest every other sentence. People have been building websites on grids for a long time before Pinterest ever existed.
Spot on. Medium may look mildly similar on the surface, but at any depth it's very different from Pinterest.
Honestly, I very much dislike Pinterest's grid, and find Medium's to be significantly better.
I think they're mashing up and it's got real freagin potential to capture all of us ― yet again. ...CowBird meets Pinterest = pretty powerful platform that appeals to our visual nature and our hardwired attachment to storytelling. I think I hate these guys!
Whenever I read yet another article gushing about Pinterest's "innovative" layout, my soul dies a little for David DeSandro, the original creator of jQuery Masonry (now Isotope) upon which Pinterest was built.
How about twylah that sort of does the same?
Way too much inspired by checkthis.com...

The key to making this Bloody Mary right is making sure the final product has a nice thickness, which is why it starts with tomato sauce instead of the standard tomato juice. Not only does this turn the common Bloody Mary into a full breakfast, it also gives it a stronger, more flavorful tomato kick.
3/4 cup tomato sauce
2 shots vodka
1 tsp. prepared horseradish
1 oz. lemon juice (lime juice works well also)
3/4 oz. olive brine
2 pinches celery seed
3 pinches black pepper
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
3 pinches granulated garlic
2 pinches salt
6-10 dashes hot sauce (any vinegar-based hot sauce)
Throw everything in a glass over ice, stir it up, garish with olives and a lemon or lime wedge, then get drinking.
Feb 11, 2013
Throw it all in a glass, stir it up and enjoy.

Portage County dog named Eeyore was near death, now improving
RAVENNA, Ohio - The starving and near-death dog that was rescued in Portage County is improving.
Eeyore, a boxer/mastiff mix, was suffering from hypothermia, weighed a mere 47 pounds, and was eating mulch and rocks because he was so hungry. The staff at the Portage Animal Protective League was horrified when he was first brought to them in mid-October.
On Wednesday, Portage APL Executive Director Chalan Lowry said Eeyore is eating more than seven cups a food a day, which is more than a dog his size should be eating, as they try to get him to a healthy weight. The poor pup should weigh about 90 pounds.
Lowry said Eeyore, whose bones still show, is much more energetic and even tugs on the leash.
"He has skin issues so it was hard to get photos. He kept rubbing his face on the staff and then wanting to look around at everything. Good sign, but not great for pictures," Lowry said. "He is making stead progress."
Donations to the Portage APL can be made by calling 330-296-4022. You can also follow them on Facebook or visit their website: http://portageapl.org/Donate_Online .

As for computers, I've been fascinated with them since I was six years old, and now make a living writing computer software...for better or worse, I'd call myself a "computer geek". I'm not a religious person; I don't visit synagogue regularly or keep kosher. However, I had a strong Jewish upbringing and still have the values that came with that. I thought I could try using JDate to meet people with similar backgrounds.

deanna boulard
a worker's prayer:
on what we're making and how we're making it
'a worker's prayer' seeks to begin conversation about work's place in our lives through artist's letters and essays, book reviews, interviews, and experience. so many of us devote most of our days to work, but how many of us fulfill the commandment: "whatever you do, do it wholeheartedly, as unto the lord" or consistently give our work to god, knowing that "whether we live therefore, or die, we are the lord's?" deanna's blog desires to be a forum where people of faith can encourage each other toward these goals.
deanna boulard lives in louisville, and delights in windows, bach, and marmalade. she has her mfa from the university of maryland and worked as a language assistant in southern france. Sometimes she has flashbacks of her favorite views, which make it hard to see what's in front of her. she would like to live every day aware that "the present is the point at which time touches eternity."

On November 15, QueryObject Systems (AMEX: OBJ) announced that it has
partnered with Cognos Corporation (NASDAQ: COGN; TSE: CSN) to create and
market a high-capacity analytical data mart accessible for analysis over
the Internet. QueryObject will provide the back-end with its analytical
data structure (a type of data mart), which is optimized for high volume
transactions over the Internet. Some of the features of the QueryObject
System include the ability to handle large data volumes and number of
users, fast data mart builds, dense (highly compressed) data marts, and
a patent-pending Distributed Replication Server to handle both server-centric
and distributed network caching Internet architectures.
will provide and integrate the front-end business intelligence solutions
in the form of its products PowerPlay and Impromptu, (market leaders in
OLAP technology and query/reporting respectively), with the QueryObjects
partners, the two vendors will participate in selected joint sales and
marketing activities worldwide. What they hope to provide is a "single
high-capacity analytical data mart that is accessible to multi-task analysis
over the Internet".
is an important alliance for us," said Robert Thompson, QueryObject CEO.
"Cognos pioneered the Business Intelligence market and is a leader in
the transition to eBusiness Intelligence. Its established suite of analytical
engines and applications is a natural complement to QueryObject's Internet-optimized
analytical data structure. We look forward to significant market development
opportunities together."
QueryObject has suffered significant losses in the last three fiscal years
reported, and is currently trading at 1-3/16. However, it is 60 percent
owned by investment firms, so it has a little more wiggle room than other
publicly held companies would. The addition of Cognos, possibly the premier
business intelligence software vendor, as a business partner will lend
additional credence to QueryObject's claims, and should spur customer
has always supported any industry standard analysis tool as the front-end,
but tight integration with a specific toolset will be compelling for customers.
According to Patrick O'Leary, Cognos vice president of strategic alliances,
"QueryObject's open data structure is a high performance data mart that
can be integrated with Cognos' query and analysis solutions. Its ability
to concurrently support both Web-server implementations and client implementations
over the Internet will be of significant interest to companies looking
to offer a range of business intelligence to all classes of knowledge
workers across their extended enterprise."
Customers evaluating business intelligence and e-business solutions should
consider the combined offering of QueryObject and Cognos.
looking to make business intelligence purchases should keep in mind that
they may not use the Internet as the access method for data analysis now,
but all of the industry trends indicate that every business will be forced
in that direction to stay competitive. Therefore an Internet-based solution,
like the one that QueryObject and Cognos are putting together, should
definitely be considered seriously.

2010 Opinions

|The Honorable Bill Janis
Member, House of Delegates
No illegal gambling occurs when the opportunity to win a prize is offered both with a purchase and without the requirement of a purchase because the element of consideration is missing.
The Honorable James E.
Edmunds, II
|Unlike initial orders issued pursuant to § 10.1-566(C ), which may be limited to suspending only land-disturbing construction activities to redress violations of erosion and sediment control schemes, subsequent orders, designed to enforce the initial order and to compel obtainment of necessary plan approval or permits, must stop all construction activities on the site, other than corrective measures, until such approval or permits are obtained.
|The Honorable Robert G. Marshall
Member, House of Delegates
|Virginia law enforcement officers, including conservation officers, may inquire into the immigration status of persons stopped or arrested; however, persons tasked with enforcing zoning laws lack the authority to investigate criminal violations of the law, including criminal violations of the immigration laws of the United States.
|Thomas M. Simons, Esq.
Town Attorney, Town of Glasgow
|Localities may not enact an ordinance prohibiting spouses from concurrenty holding interrelated elected offices.
|The Honorable Richard P.
Member, House of Delegates
|The utility or service charge authorized by § 15.2-2114 is a fee, not a tax, that is enforceable by localities pursuant to § 15.2-2114(D). Senate Bill 395 does not affect localities' ability to enforce existing stormwater control programs adopted pursuant to § 15.2-2114. Section 15.2-2114 does not provide for the grandfathering of properties with conditions that predated the passage of local ordinances, nor does it provide an exemption for landowners whose properties have unique characteristics that prevent the reduction of stormwater runoff. Landowners cannot be held responsible for reducing runoff or paying a charge for runoff from their property when that runoff is caused by drainage from other properties.
|Ms. Barbara O. Carraway
City Treasurer for the City of Chesapeake
|Police officers do not have the civil authority to distrain property for the collection of delinquent City accounts.
|The Honorable John T. Frey
Clerk, Fairfax County Circuit Court
Because the judgment does not detail a specific monetary award, it may be entered either in the judgment docket or in the order book, or in any other record deemed suitable, in accord with local practice and the sound discretion of the clerk.

The Best Family DestinationsNovember 5, 2013 | Roger
Recently, travel guidebook publisher Lonely Planet released its lists of top destinations for the upcoming year. It's hard to believe 2014 is right around the corner, but it is the time of year where lists start finding their way into the news. Today, we noticed their top ten family destinations for 2014, and there's a lot of great calls in our opinion. Read More
Dispatches: The Magic KingdomOctober 9, 2013 | Roger
If I'd said it once, I must have said it a dozen times during my first short stay at Walt Disney World. This is a whole different culture than I was expecting. I've traveled a lot of different places, experienced a lot of different things – but the culture shock in the Magic Kingdom was intense! I don't think that I've ever been in a place before where everyone just seemed so happy before.
Inside Walt Disney World: Grand Floridian ResortOctober 4, 2013 | Roger
Victorian style digs and the antique cars in front of the lobby transport you to the gilded age at Walt Disney World's Grand Floridian Resort. This Deluxe resort rests just moments away from the Magic Kingdom, along the Monorail and is designed to evoke the roaring 20's, and provide a Great Gatsby feel to a Disney vacation. Read More
An Even More Magical VacationSeptember 26, 2013 | Roger
What if there was a way to take a vacation without ever reaching for your wallet, or even a room key? What if you could visit a theme park and never have to get tickets, or wait in line for a ride? What if you could plan your day with just a smartphone handy? Fewer lines, less fumbling. Seems like a pipe dream for most, but at Walt Disney World, they've found a way to make that happen with the new "My Magic+" program.
Inside Walt Disney World: Art of AnimationSeptember 24, 2013 | Roger
Walt Disney World is not known for standing still. Since the park and its original resort, the Contemporary opened 42 years, the park complex has been continually innovating and growing. Parks open beyond the Magic Kingdom – like Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. Resort after resort, each with its own identity popped up within the Walt Disney World grounds. Their newest resort, Art of Animation opened last year, and its quickly become one of our favorites. Read More
Coming to Disney World: The FutureJanuary 14, 2013 | Roger
Walt Disney World and innovation go hand in hand. The complex of parks and resorts in Orlando have revolutionized the way people travel and the way people experience theme parks, and coming this year Disney is taking the experience one step further with the My Magic+ program. This is part of an 800 million dollar initiative to modernize and improve the time people spend in their parks and resorts.
The way it works is pretty simple. It all starts with wristbands. These rubber wristbands, called "Magic Bands" will make turnstiles a thing of the past, and it should shorten lines as well, by sending texts when a turn on a ride comes along, making paper tickets unnecessary and allowing guests to pay for snacks and souvenirs without having to reach for the wallet. It will also act as a room key for people staying on property.
There are some trade offs, Disney does get to learn a lot more about likes and dislikes, as well as spending habits. Some people may find this a bit creepy, but the truth is – in an environment like Walt Disney World, it can help make an experience a bit more custom, and a bit more shaped to the individual's taste, instead of something more mass market. It's like getting a bit more exclusive without excluding.
We think that this is a pretty nice enhancement to the Disney experience, and we're pretty excited to try them out.

Top Destinations for 2013: Walt Disney WorldDecember 21, 2012 | Roger
Let's be honest, Disney offers magical experiences for every age and every person. They do this through a number of different venues, Disneyland in California – the original Disney destination, Aulani resort in Hawaii, a state which is also on our must-see list for 2013 to name just a couple. But it's Walt Disney World, in Orlando, Florida that is really the item that every Disney fan needs to see. And for those who have been there before, so much has changed in the last twelve months that a new visit would be like visiting a brand new destination.
New Fantasyland is Open!December 11, 2012 | Roger
Walt Disney World's New Fantasyland opened just last week, and there's a lot to see! Two new fairytale castles to explore, an area of the park where you can fly like Dumbo! It's all pretty incredible! Read More
Be Their Guest! Disney's New Fantasyland Restaurant wowsOctober 17, 2012 | Roger
As the Magic Kingdom starts opening more and more of the New Fantasyland portion of the park, one huge standout is the "Be Our Guest" restaurant which offers both quick service and table dining service in a setting modeled after the Beast's castle from the movie "Beauty and the Beast." Read More

Everyone who's ever flown an airplane knows that all electronics, especially those that transmit wireless waves (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) need to be turned off during take-off and landing.
Even the so-called "flight mode" that some gadgets can enter doesn't spare owners from having to comply with this demand.
Some people don't see a problem, or at least don't feel that the 10-20 minutes of their ride is a reason to fuss over.
Others, however, want to be allowed to use their tablets, phones and other gadgets without interruption.
It turns out that the FCC boss Julius Genachowski is one of the latter. He even went as far as to demand (politely) that the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) get on with its rule review and allow greater use of such devices as soon as possible.
The FCC chief would have probably not entered the field if FAA didn't have a problem with voice communications during flights.

If you ever wished that your front door opened as easily as your car door, then there is a nice bit of Brazilian design for you. The Max Door is the work of the folks at No Design and it packs in a nice piece of functionality: a retractable guillotine at the bottom of the door to ensure maximum sound insulation. There is also an in-built mailbox and an unusual rubbery finish which serves no purpose that I can think of (other than being different).
It looks very cool, but I would be hesitant to buy one unless it had some sort of backup system in case the battery in the remote ran out. [Business Week via Ubergizmo]

DS 6.9 SP6 - DOS PXE cannot map F:
I have a new installation of Altiris DS 6.9 SP6 running on Windows Server 2008 R2. Linux and WinPE PXE works fine. However DOS fails to map the F: drive giving a net use Error 53: The computer name specified in the network path cannot be located.
I know the DOS image is getting an IP address as I can manually map our old eXpress share on a 2003 server. I'm thinking there is a difference between 2003 R2 and 2008 R2 that's stopping this connection.
Thank you for any help.
Comments 4 Comments • Jump to latest comment
My old notes say that an error 53 when mapping can be caused by name resolution problems, try using an LMHosts file in your DOS image, or that Ports 137 (UDP), 138 (UPD) and 139 (TCP) need opening, maybe on the 2008 R2 server.

Connect Etiquette: Please "Mark as Solution" posts that fix your problem.
Another option is to check DNS for short and long name resolution. From another system, try pinging based on short name, and based on long / FQDN and see if it works. If not, then you've some holes in your DNS configuration. Granted, the LMHosts can make up for it, but then again...
You CAN change the F drive mapping to use IP or ... whatever. Just go into BootWiz and modify it to work.
MOST of the time, this is a DNS issue as Andy said.

Enthusiast for making things better!
Uh - are you sure you can't? Test it. I do it all the time, but granted it has been ages since I've even attempted to actually use true MSDos. The net use statement though should easily support direct IP drive mapping. All you do is:
net use * \\192.168.0.15\share
And it shouldl prompt for user name and whatever. That said, they'll still need to figure out DNS to ensure OTHER things in the environment don't fail. It just starts here, but there are other places it ends up affecting later.

Make this! Easy. I sub 2-3 strips bacon for pork fat. The sauce is a MUST!flag if inappropriate
Excellent. I, too, omitted the lard ... otherwise made the recipe exactly as written. I only made half, and it didn't look like I would be able to get 40 balls out of the shrimp mixture, but I did ... the trick is to keep them small. I clumped them rather than trying to form balls (be sure to whip the egg whites a little to keep the mixture from being to liquidy as others have reported). Then gently dipped the clumps into the crumbs. The crumbs helped to keep shape. Fried in a deep-fat fryer for exactly 1-1/2 minutes ... perfect. Also found that you can FREEZE them! After frying and cooling, I froze a few (individually on cookie sheets. Then reheated WITHOUT THAWING at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Perfect.flag if inappropriate
A little different and very good. Mixture is sticky and difficult to handle. Suggest dropping small teaspoonfuls directly into the panko and then rolling into balls. The panko makes the mixture much easier to handle.flag if inappropriate
I did not roll the shrimp balls in the panko and they turned out fine -- everyone loved them. I reduced the amount of salt and substituted ground white pepper for the ginger because my boyfriend dislikes ginger & he loves this dish.flag if inappropriate
Made these for a cocktail party for 50 people and they were divine. Everyone wanted the recipe. I also left out the pork fat/lard - you don't need it. Best of all, they really do reheat brilliantly so you can make them the day before. My son requested these for his party also and they were a hit again.flag if inappropriate
This is WAY too salty - a scant 1 tsp. is just about right. Dried shiitake mushrooms (much more potent than fresh) soaked in warm water for 30 min., then chopped fine is a great addition. As with other cooks - the lard is not needed.flag if inappropriate
i love everthing about it.flag if inappropriate
My guests ate them as soon as they were cooked and they loved them! I added some chopped cilantro because I had some on hand. Will definately make again.flag if inappropriate
These balls did taste like something you would get in a chinese restaurant. However, I guess I am not a big fan of fried food. The sauce went well with it.flag if inappropriate
We had our doubts when we were rolling the sticky little mush balls, but once we applied the panko they looked much better. These were easy to cook and guests ate them immediately (no time to re-warm in the oven). A great dish for big parties or smaller gatherings. Very light tasting, but full-flavored!flag if inappropriate

WATERTOWN The summer playground program may be taking a hit under the proposed city budget, with three of seven playgrounds being eliminated.
City officials are calling the proposed cuts a restructuring of the program as little-used playgrounds would not reopen this summer.
As a result, Parks and Recreation Superintendent Erin E. Gardner said, most of the activities would be held at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds playground. However, the activities and programs that the Parks and Recreation Department has added during the past two years will remain, city officials said.
Were still going to have the same amount of programs, Mrs. Gardner said, noting that a kickball league will be offered for the first time this summer.
The North Elementary School, Thompson Park and East Hills playgrounds would be staffed, while Academy, North Hamilton and Portage playgrounds would not be open this summer.
The deteriorating Thompson Park pool also would not be staffed this summer. The move to shutter the 90-year-old pool was expected since the Watertown City Council has discussed in the past whether it was worth it to make major repairs or replace it.
In 2012, council members held off spending $650,000 to replace the pool. The city also has pools at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds on Coffeen Street and at North Elementary School on East Division Street, which were upgraded this past year at a cost of $115,400.
Under the proposed budget, Parks and Recreation Department spending would decrease from $129,366 to $65,671, with $31,633 of that amount reductions in temporary summer hirings and $13,500 in equipment reductions.
Usually, two people staff each playground, and it takes about seven lifeguards to run the Thompson Park pool during the six-week playground season.
Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham said the restructuring makes sense. He said its not like a few decades ago, when dozens of children attended summer playgrounds; now they have different interests.
Theyre underutilized, Councilwoman Theresa R. Macaluso said. You have one or two children and staff sit there with nothing to do.
Even while they consider the Parks Department cuts, there seems to be enough support to proceed with a $6.2 million to $7 million renovation of the Municipal Ice Arena at the fairgrounds. Mr. Graham and three council members still support the project. Councilman Joseph M. Butler Jr. has major reservations, citing costs and the citys financial position.
A Rochester engineering firm is being paid $510,000 to design the project. Contracts would be awarded next fall.
Last week, City Manager Sharon A. Addison suggested cutting back on the scale of the project, completing only necessary repairs on the arena, such as replacing its roof and floor and upgrading locker rooms.
Before releasing her $39.9 million budget last week, Ms. Addison told the heads of the the police, fire, public works and parks departments and the Roswell P. Flower Memorial Library to make 10 percent across-the-board budget cuts. The other department heads were told to find 2 percent budget cuts.
Her tentative spending plan carries a 3.6 percent increase in the tax levy. The projected tax rate would be $8.93 per $1,000 of assessed value, a $1.63, or 22.3 percent, increase.
Council members have set budget sessions for 6 p.m. May 12 and 13.

A movement is afoot to try to persuade news media gatekeepers to close the door on information about mass murderers like the kid out in California.
The logic goes like this: Many of these killers are copy cats, so let's not tell them anything they can copy.
Sounds reasonable enough, until you consider the advantages to society as a whole of having a complete story in hand, so as to forestall rumor and gossip and unvarnished, downright lies. If you completely, 100 percent trust law enforcers and others in the criminal justice system (think Dist. Atty. Anderson late of Williamson County, for example) then let them hide all the facts they want.
But, if you're a little bit wary of that, maybe we should not go down that trail.
I sure hate citing that old slippery slope idea, but what's next? Let's get all violent crime out of movies and games, because that kind of thing can inspire copy cats.
OK, I will back off enough to say that I think Margaret Sullivan of The New York Times may have something right when she writes that it might be worth considering to hold off on publshing or otherwise provide a platform for killers with manifestos on a case-by-case basis.
I love YouTube.
I'm in the Halftime Band at church, and many of the songs we sing I am not familiar with. So, I have to try to get up to speed on them very quickly.
To do so, I go to YouTube, enter the song name, and listen and/or play along. This certainly helps me develop an ear for the music, even if what we finally do with a tune is not exactly what you would find on the video.
Just recently, I bought a ukelele, and, again, I am turning to YouTube for help. I've already learned several songs by watching Ukelenny over and over again.
So, I can vouch for the fact that if you're trying to learn some music, YouTube can be your friend.
Just this week, the library added Mango language instruction to our website. Our hope is that our patrons can go to Mango and, as with YouTube videos, learn another language over time.
This kind of instructional approach certainly can't hurt.
Today was the last day for this year's 18+ young people to come to the library to help us out.
Leslie Williams is in charge of this great program, offered by the Wimberley school system.
Every Tuesday since last fall, Leslie has brought Naomi, Justin, Chance and Sage to the library to shelve books and DVDs and to help clean the place up. Everyone is always in a great mood and wonderful to be around.
Thanks, Leslie and kids!
I read yesterday about a pre-teen girl who asked people to donate money to her local library instead of giving her a birthday present.
Wow, I thought, what a great kid!
But, then I read a little deeper into the story.
And it said she wanted the donations to go to the library in her name so she could get her name on a brass plaque.
Our Toddler Time on Monday mornings seems to be a big hit with joms and kids alike.
But, it's not growing like the similar program in the New York City public libraries.
Sage Lazzaro and Esti Jungreis write in The New York Observer that Toddler Times attracted 250,000 participants last year. In the first quarter of this year, the number has already hit 190,000!
Some parents are arriving as much as an hour early to participate.
Sounds as if the libraries need to add some other times for toddlers.
This past Monday, we had about 25 moms, dads and kiddoes. Earlier this month, we had 35.
Those are pretty healthy numbers for a library our size. Thirty-five has us bursting at the seams.

Olympic men's basketball: Hard times for ex-Ute Bogut
BEIJING - Forgive http://www.sltrib.com/olympics/ci_9721073" Target="_BLANK">Andrew Bogut for feeling as if his world has turned upside down all of the sudden.
The former All-American center at Utah came into the Beijing Olympics full of confidence, fresh off signing a new contract with the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks that could be worth $72 million and believing that his native Australia had a chance for a top-four finish in the men's basketball tournament.
Not even halfway home, everything is in chaos.
The Bucks traded away two of their best players while Bogut was gone, and the Australians have stunningly fallen apart on the floor at the Beijing Olympic Basketball Gymnasium, losing badly to Croatia and Argentina - "we couldn't play any worse," Bogut said - before finally bouncing back for a 106-68 victory over Iran in a must-win game on Thursday.
Coach Brian Goorjian had called it "D-Day" for the Aussies, knowing that a loss to Iran ultimately would keep them from the quarterfinals for the second straight Olympics. Now, they have at least a slim chance of advancing, but they probably have to beat Russia and the Jazz's http://www.sltrib.com/olympics/ci_9720289" Target="_BLANK">Andrei Kirilenko on Saturday.
"It's been very demoralizing the last couple of days," Bogut said, "just walking around the village seeing the Argentines walking around all happy, and the Croatians, and so on. Obviously, they deserved the wins, there's no doubt about that, but it's kind of demoralizing in that sense."
Surprising, too.
Bogut has been living a mostly charmed life at least since he joined the Utes nearly five years ago, progressing from a starter at the 2004 Athens Games to an All-American as a sophomore who led the Utes to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament and the No. 1 pick of the NBA Draft.
"He was a role model for me," said Australia's Patrick Mills, the standout guard at St. Mary's who considered joining the Utes before they signed point guard Tyler Kepkay instead. "And I guess not only for me, but every other young Australian basketball player coming through."
Since joining the Bucks, the 7-foot center has grown into one of the NBA's most dependable and versatile big men. That versatility figured to really help at the Olympics, but Bogut has been far from a force. He's averaging just 9.0 points and 4.0 rebounds so far - and that was after scoring 10 points with seven boards against Iran.
Crowded in the post, Bogut took only three shots in the loss to Croatia, then shot just 3-for-10 against Argentina. He has absorbed loads of criticism back home, something Goorjian doesn't think is fair.
"I have said all along that the country's success is going to be based on how [other members of the team] play," the coach said, "because I don't think you can have a guy with you for just a week and play two games and come into this tournament and then have the whole country go, 'Hey, this boy is supposed to carry us.' He's a 23-year-old guy who's growing with the team and I think that he has got better in each game."
Bogut missed much of his team's short preparation for the Olympics while finalizing his new deal with the Bucks, then missed some time - as well as an exhibition against Team USA - with a sprained ankle. He said many people don't understand that the Australians haven't been together as long as other teams, and agreed that he can't do everything.
"Obviously, we're down," Bogut said. "We've played a lot of bad basketball. Everyone's down on us back home, everyone's down on us here. Basketball's kind of forgotten about. And we deserve that, in a way. So we're trying to keep our group together of 12 guys. They're the most important guys - outside of media, outside of parents, brothers, sisters, wives, girlfriends. It's the 12 guys in our group who are here every day going through this, so if we just keep sticking to it, things will turn the corner, hopefully."

Australia's Olympic team boss has branded as "unacceptable" a ticketing fiasco infuriating scores of Australians who have been unable to collect pre-paid passes in London despite queueing for hours.
But chef de mission Nick Green says he has been assured by CoSport, the ticket agent for the Australian Olympic Committee, the US and 10 other countries, that all Australians will get their tickets.
"People queueing for tickets is unacceptable," Green said on Tuesday, just three days before the 2012 Games opening ceremony.
"We were disappointed when we heard about it. The AOC are working and talking with CoSport. They've assured us that all Australians will get their tickets."
Green advised customers to contact the ticketing agents before turning up to the collection centre in London's Paddington.
Delays in getting tickets from the Games organising body LOCOG had a "flow-on effect", he said.
Priority was being given to customers who had bought tickets for the opening ceremony and events in the first two days of the Games.
"We should take a little bit of comfort that they (CoSport) are established in the market and one of the biggest re-sellers in the world."
Some angry customers lined up for nine hours to collect tickets, only to be turned away.
Adelaide woman Rochelle Joliffe, who got her tickets after three hours, said: "The system's rubbish. It's understaffed, no one has any idea, there's a lack of management. I'd be out of a job if I treated people like this."
Australians had the option of having their tickets sent to their home address after July 11, but anyone arriving in London before that date has to collect their tickets in the Games city.
Ticketing is not the only problem facing Olympic guests.
Spectators could also have their travel plans disrupted by industrial action on the Tube.
London Underground employees are to stage a work-to-rule from Friday in a dispute over implementing an Olympics pay deal, as well as the use of casual workers.
Australia's presence in the athletes' village, meanwhile, continues to grow.
Some 258 of the 410 Aussie competitors have arrived, with a further 30 due on Tuesday, including the boxing, taekwondo, table tennis and wrestling teams.
Green said some 220 Australians were expected to match in Friday's opening ceremony, and those worried about resting up for their events had the option of making an early exit halfway through proceedings.
"They are very close to the village so they can go back," he said.

I did a double-take on this thread title thinking it was the recent one circulating about the advantages of medium format over 35mm.
I took a nice vacation trip a few months ago and must have had 4-35mm cameras and 3 medium format cameras and a big box of film for each format. Interestingly, I only shot a few frames of 6x6 at one event and the rest were made on 35mm (either slide film in my OM-2 or B&W in my ME Super). Now I'm trying to figure out why I didn't shoot more medium format. Was it because my 35mm cameras are faster, lighter and easier to use? Or was it because I figured most shots didn't warrant the larger negative size? A combination of both reasons? I don't know, but given the choice of the two formats, I chose 35mm so there must be some advantage to that format for was I was doing.
