"ICW Trip 2001 Leg 9 Oriental" Oriental by grandmaR
Oriental Travel Guide: 13 reviews and 45 photos
Oriental is one of our favorite places to stop on the ICW. So we were anxious to show it to our friends.
We got under way very early on November 6th. I was a little worried about the winds in Pamlico Sound, but we really don't have to be in it much. The winds were brisk going down the Bay River and up the Neuse, but nothing too rough. The Oriental Marina put a sailboat in next to us named YANKEE COWBOY, which was so wide we scraped on both sides of the slip. He came in late and had gone 100 miles that day because he'd lost time to weather he said and he had to make it up (maybe he was a delivery skipper - I wouldn't want to do it that way). Our favorite restaurant (M&Ms) was closed on Tuesday, so we ate at the motel restaurant which was also good.
Nov 7th, YANKEE COWBOY got underway at 5:30 am, but we waited until 6. We were going to Beaufort NC, but decided to skip that (several people said it was overpriced, and indeed all the marinas were very expensive plus our friends had already been there).
Next stop Swansboro
When we came back up the ICW in the spring, we went through Morehead City (pictures on Morehead City page), and a Swedish boat came in behind us. We stopped in Oriental. M &M's was open this time, and we had a good dinner. I got a kick out of the Oriental Sailing School boats. One named BEGINNER'S LUCK, and the other STUDENT DRIVER.
It was REALLY foggy in the morning. We went out anyway. We could just see the first mark, and Bob turned to where he thought the 2nd mark was. I had just put the screen on the GPS that shows your previous track, when the depth sounder went off. We could see a red and a green off to the right, but Bob insisted that they weren't our marks. I could point to the GPS and say - see - yesterday afternoon you were over there, and they are too our marks.
Next stop: Belhaven
- Pros:Boat oriented town
- Cons:Tends to be foggy in the morning
- In a nutshell:Good place for sailing

In the Garden
When to plant your bulbs?
Usually I wait until early December to buy and plant bulbs. Well, in the interest of honesty, I should admit that I don't actually wait. Usually it's December before I get around to buying and putting in bulbs.
I plant tulips. I think they're beautiful, and I think they're well suited to me in part because I really dislike looking at the dying foliage after the bloom fades. Since I don't try to make tulips go more than one year, I'm free to take them out when I start hating the way they look.
This year, I bought bulbs early which meant, among other things, that I paid full price. But I brushed the idea of the extra money aside as I savored a full measure of smug satisfaction that I was ahead of the game.
I've been duly punished.
Chipmunks or squirrels or whatever have been digging up my bulbs every day for the last three weeks. I planted 90 bulbs and, so far, I've counted more than twenty empty holes in my tulip bed. Plus, to add insult to injury, frequently my uninvited guests eat only about half the bulb and throw the rest on the ground for me to find. I think if I want any tulips next spring, I'm going to have to buy and plant some more.
Isn't it enough that they're also eating all my birdseed?
It is in times like these that I either call someone at the Extension office or go online and see if Virginia Cooperative Extension has a publication that will help me.
Since I finally decided to face this issue on a weekend when, understandably, the office was closed, I went online and found "Flowering Bulbs: Culture and Maintenance" at http://www.ext.vt.edu.
"One of the most popular spring bulbs is the tulip," says the publication. "Tulips come in all colors except blue."
My bulbs are pink, white, and pink-and-white, purchased in three different bags. They represent something of a splurge since I normally get the 60-mixed-colors bag that's left on the markdown counter.
"Selecting quality spring bulbs is very important." Okay, did that this year. "Size is important: look for plump, firm bulbs." Check.
"Hardy, spring-flowering bulbs are planted in fall." Yes. "As a general rule of thumb, bulbs should be planted 2.5 to 3 times the diameter of the bulb in depth." Yes, I did that.
"If voles are a problem, the bulbs can be planted in baskets made of wire screen to prevent the animals from reaching and destroying them."
Voles? I have voles. They're tunneling all over my garden, but do they toss half the bulb up on the surface of the ground?
Have I been falsely accusing my chipmunks?
And, where can I get baskets made of wire screen? Really, if I tell the truth, I don't think I'm up for wire screen baskets.
I think I'm going to wait until the bulbs go on sale in early December. Then I'll buy and plant some more. Maybe some bad habits are not that bad after all.

Is it normal to have no pregnancy symptoms at 4 weeks?
I miscarried for a second time about 2 months ago at about 9 weeks. I had no pregnancy symptoms whatsoevern. I also miscarried many years ago and had extreme fatique and nausea. This pregnancy turned out to be a molar pregnancy. I am experiencing no symptoms yet again, and am feeling a great deal of stress -- even though I am only just 4 weeks pregnant.

From what I have heard and read, It would be even more unusual for you to have symptoms at 4 weeks thatn to not have them. Alot of women dont even notice they may be pregnant untill 6 to 8 weeks. Women with early symptoms are less comon.posted 04/22/2010 by equifreakyfrench
This is my second pregnancy and I have had nothing other than a positive pregnancy test. My first pregnancy was a nightmare of bronchitis, nausea, etc. from start to finish. I am 5 weeks now and I have more energy and feel great. Good thing, my son is 18 months old and REALLY busy!posted 09/06/2007 by auntbaaa
I had 2 healthy babies and never got morning sickness with either one. My doctor told me only 50% of women get morning sickness, which means 50% don't. Enjoy your pregnancy and consider yourself lucky you aren't sick.posted 09/12/2007 by LoveMyGirls

I am also 4 weeks pregnant and feeling no symptoms. With my miscarriage (at 8wks) a few months ago, I had normal pregnancy symptoms. I don't really think the symptoms mean anything at this point.posted 01/12/2008 by aharb73
Phew! I'm almost 5 weeks with my 1st & have no symptoms of being pregnant (knock on wood)except for a missed period and a positive pregnancy test. I was beginning to really worry, but all of these comments have put my mind at ease. I'm still going to take a PT once a week until my Dr. appointment in March...just to make sure ;) Thanks you guys, I feel a lot better!posted 02/09/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
I haven't yet been to my OB because the earliest that she sees patients is at 7 weeks. But, I too (according to my menstrual calendar and 3 positive home tests) should be going into my 6th week and have NO SYMPTOMS. My trouble is that this is my 2nd pregnancy (very healthy baby boy 1st time around, and GREAT pregnancy) but I don't remember how far along I was before I began to feel symptoms (sore breasts, fatigue, nausea, etc.) So I was in panic mode until I read these posts...THANK U ladies...Baby Center was also my PREGNANCY/BABY BIBLE during the first time..so I'll be back! Can't wait to get to the doc tho!posted 04/05/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
I too suffered two miscarriages just last year. I am now six weeks pregnant. I've had no real symptoms and of course have been driving myself crazy with the "what ifs". Well, I went to the doctor on Tuesday and low and behold, there was her little heartbeat pumping away!! Thank God! So please don't feel that anything is wrong because you are not having symptoms. It will all be fine!posted 05/24/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I've had two miscarriages in the past and have two healthy children and have never been nauseous. I think it's important to remember that every woman's pregnancy is unique...and also that stress isn't good for the baby. Just relax and pray and think positive, happy thoughts! And congratulations on your pregnancy!posted 03/17/2008 by UggaMugga.com

With no DH, Youkilis sitting as Ortiz takes first base
Originally Published: October 26, 2007By Jerry Crasnick | ESPN.com
DENVER -- Kevin Youkilis made it clear Friday that a little pine time in the Rocky Mountains isn't going to crush his spirit. A prominent Boston hitter must take a seat in Denver, and Youkilis never expected it to be Mike Lowell, with his 120-RBI bat and slick defense, or David Ortiz, owner of three Silver Slugger awards.But with the Red Sox leading the Rockies 2-0 in the World Series, the intrigue had to come from somewhere, didn't it?

Metro Denver often benefits from lower gasoline prices than the rest of the U.S. But for weeks, the price at the pump here has been higher than the national average.
On Monday, the average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gas in Denver was $3.75, compared with the national average of $3.63.
Experts say there are a number of reasons — some stemming from the conversion from wintertime blends of gasoline to summertime formulas in the refineries supplying Denver, which can take up to a week to complete.
But conversions can also cause "hiccups," where problems in the refineries are detected and they have unscheduled shutdowns for a comparatively long period for maintenance and repair.
Mark Larson, executive director of the Colorado Wyoming Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association, said Monday that the refineries requiring maintenance may not necessarily be those supplying Denver. Several refineries supplying the Midwest either have been shut down or are operating well below capacity, driving up prices in that region.
BP's Whiting, Ill., refinery has been carrying out a crude-conversion project since late 2012, while Exxon's refinery in Joliet, Ill., has been running without major operating units during a turnaround that began in April.
Phillips 66 had a process leak at its refinery in Roxana , Ill., last week, while Citgo's Lemont, Ill., plant experienced a compressor issue, the companies said.
And that, said Larson, has a ripple effect on the refineries that traditionally supply Denver.
"If you have a Midwest refiner in Kansas City or in the Midwest and they are not filling up the product, then Denver's traditional suppliers that are normally sending us product from El Dorado, Kan., and McKee, Texas, are going to have pressures to put the product in the pipe going in a different direction," he said.
Those refineries are not likely to send the gasoline to Denver if they are sure they can sell every gallon they send into the depleted area, said Larson.
The result is that prices in Denver increase because of lack of supply.
"This is a direct supply-and-demand hiccup we are seeing from refinery outages, and it will be short-lived," Larson said.
He expects prices in Denver to come down in the next two to three weeks.
"It will come back down. I'm not worried," he said.
Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy.com, which tracks gasoline prices in the U.S. and Canada, said Monday that the wide fluctuations in price across the U.S. show just how much influence the refineries have.
"One thing remains the same throughout the United States, and that is we're still reliant on oil refineries to process crude oil into gasoline," DeHaan said. "When they go partially off line, whether expected or unexpected, there's going to be tightness in gasoline supply, and that has an almost immediate impact at the gas pump."

Bishop Robert Morlino of Madison, Wis., (Rep. Paul Ryan's home diocese) gives some political science lessons in the local newspaper:
Those with an abundance are obligated to share with those who lack basics, Morlino said, but the best way to do that is at the level closest to the people in need, a Catholic principle called subsidiarity.
"It's just common sense," Morlino said. "In other words, if I can help you directly, why should we bring it to the mayor or the government or the president of the United States, if I can just help you?"
Earlier, writing in his diocesan newspaper, Morlino called socialism "intrinsically evil."

Dexter Morgan's (Michael C. Hall) life is going to hell.
As the last season of Showtime's Dexter concluded, Dexter's sister Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) walked in and saw something he never wanted her to see. And now, in a new video teaser released hyping the forthcoming seventh season of the show, which will be the penultimate season, we see that Dexter's life is falling apart around him and he is as close to being found out as ever. Video below, courtesy of the Hollywood Reporter (NOTE: CONTAINS MASSIVE SPOILERS)
Whew. That showed us a lot of what is going to go down, such as:
Dexter returns Sunday, Sept. 30 at 9 p.m. on Showtime.
I have to say, the last two seasons have been lackluster, but this trailer looks fantastic.

Non-chemical In-situ Foam Control for Food Processing

Research Institution:
AbstractFood processing, such as potato processing, sugar production, soy processing, dairy industry, fermentation, fruit and vegetable processing, and others high in starch, proteins, or sugars generates high levels of foam. In order to control foam, anti-foaming chemical agents are added. Because they meet GRAS status as determined by the chemical manufacturers, not the FDA, (Since 1997 the FDA has stopped affirming substances.), chemical agents/formulas are subject to interpretation by the manufacturers that produce and sell these compounds. Also, maximum use rate can be unknowingly exceeded by the food processors. The effectiveness of water rinsing of foods processed in chemical laden water is variable, so, on balance, these chemicals are present on the final product. Aside from an inherent desire to improve food quality by eliminating in-process reactive chemical additives, the elimination of chemical use will increase productivity and reduce operational costs. Virtually all food processing companies have voiced their desire to have a nonchemical solution for foam control. Commercially available gas/liquid separators are used for foam control in some industries, but are not suited to meet the food industries' requirements for a cost-effective in-situ solution.

Ok, so this wasn't technically a regular commute, but this is the forum I most relate to when not doing roadie stuff.
It finally hit the 20's in NYC. Woke up this morning, looked out the window and decided that I need to immediately go on a little 20 mile round-trip commute to get some Gatorade from the Breezy Point general store :-). Figured I'd use the opportunity to see if I'm as prepared as I think I am with regard to winter gear.
Thought I'd share some pics of southern Brooklyn this time of year while I'm at it.
Shore Parkway bike path:
Quick stop at the Gateway Marina:
This stuff was impossible to ride on. I took a nice spill making a turn. Only then did I notice that my bike wouldn't even stay up when slightly leaning it on myself. Was told that I was lucky not to have taken a dive instead of a spill.

In explaining his decision to have ace pitcher Felix Hernandez skip his final start of the season, Mariner general manager Jack Zduriencik called it a "precautionary move," adding that "one more start shouldn't make much of a difference" in terms of its impact on Hernandez's Cy Young Award candidacy. This is yet another miscalculation in a season filled with them, and adds a final exclamation point to Mariner management's season-long "fuck you!" to the club's too-loyal fan base.
Hernandez is doing his best to shrug off Zduriencik's "precaution," but you can tell he's pissed, saying "with a laugh" that "his credentials 'could be better if I throw one more game.'" Is sparing the arm of your franchise cornerstone seven to nine innings at the end of a lost season really worth pissing him off when he's the only one in your organization who still has something to lose? If Zduriencik pulls an encore performance in 2011, he'll know what it's like to lose something. And I think we all know what that something is.

Hello everyone, i currently have 4 Neon tetras and 3 silver tip tetras in a planted 10 gallon tank. I want to buy one more neon so there are 5 and am looking at getting a small angel fish or dwarf gourami. Would that be too much for the tank? And also which fish would be better to get?
Yes, it would be too much, but even if it wasn't, I would not put angels or gourami in with these fish.
Silvertip Tetra are known to fin nip, and this can be aggravated by small spaces (a 10g is small to this fish) and too few numbers (six is minimum, more would be better, but not in a 10g). Plus, the long fins and sedate nature of angelfish and gourami is too much of a temptation. Even neon tetra are known to become nippy under the above conditions too.
To the space issue. There is insufficient space for scalare angelfish, but one dwarf gourami would work but not with the present tankmates. And here we come to a quandry. Both need more added, but this will not work long-term in a 10g. You could manage with just the neons, with 6-7. Up to you where you go from here.
Do you know about our fish profiles? Second tab from the left in the blue bar across the top of the page. All these fish are included, and the profile explains numbers, tank sizes, etc. The names that shaded you can click for the profile.

Handicapping Div. IV boys hoop playoffs
When the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section boys Div. IV basketball playoffs tip off on Wednesday night, it looks like no fewer than six teams appear more than capable to get all the way to Sleep Train Arena on March 2 and walk off with top honors.
While the top four seeds – Colfax. Summerville, Riverbank and Liberty Ranch – all look formable, there's a host of "sleepers" just a step back that could wreak havoc with the bracket.
"There's a lot of good teams out there," said Colfax coach Mike O'Connell whose No. 1 seed Falcons will open the playoffs Wednesday by hosting No. 16 seed Hughson at 7 p.m. "It will be nice to be playing Wednesday at home."
Here's a capsule handicap look at the Div. IV boys field:
Favorites: No. 1 Colfax comes into the playoffs at 22-5 and is battle-tested after winning the outright Pioneer Valley League crown. Falcons also own a win over Chico High, the No. 1 rated large school in the North Section playoffs. Colfax's depth took a hit when starting forward Paul Ramseth went down two weeks ago. Meanwhile, No. 2 Summerville (21-3) has good balance and size with 6-6 senior Jesse Roberson (13.8) and 6-7 senior Rosendo Amaya-Wood (12.8). Meanwhile, No. 3 Riverbank (22-3) has suffered two of its losses to Modesto Christian. The Bruins – with only one starter listed as tall as 6-3 – has connected for 185 three-point buckets this season.
Contenders: No. 4 Liberty Ranch (19-8) has one of the top scorers in the state in 6-2 senior guard Mike Meserole who is scoring at 25 points an outing. He's joined by 6-4 sophomore D'Andre Stallings in leading the three-year-old Hawks to their first ever playoff berth. Mesa Verde has won 10 of its last 12 games and have three solid scorers in 6-1 sophomore Bret Lynch (15.5) 6-3 senior forward Roman Zazhitskiy (11.0) and 6-1 wing Ja Quan Deary (10.0).
Dark Horse: West Campus has enough overall-size, three starters at 6-3 and one at 6-6, to give Colfax problems in a potential second round game. The Warriors (15-12), who have won six of their past seven, are led by three players who average 12 points a game including 6-2 guard Conor Garber.
Sleepers: Quietly Bret Harte has posted a nice 20-7 season. The No. 6 seed Bullfrogs are 6-5 this season against Div. IV playoff foes. Encina, 19-7, and undefeated winners of the Sierra Delta Conference, is led by 6-6 Ricky Gregor and 6-4 Latwon Bryant.
Div. IV Boys
1st Round – Wed. Feb. 20 – All Games 7 p.m.
Upper Bracket
Hughson (11-13) at Colfax (22-5)
Escalon (16-11) at West Campus (15-12)
Amador (14-12) at Mesa Verde (20-7)
Mariposa (13-13) at Liberty Ranch (19-8)
Lower Bracket

Last month a plethora of gold stock indicators reached
extraordinary levels. Let's take a look at five of them.
The Gold Miners Bullish Percent Index
Stockcharts.com has data of the Gold Miners Bullish Percent Index.
Its data for this indicator starts on February 14, 2008. The
all-time low of the Gold Miners Bullish Percent Index is 0. It
closed at that level on December 3-5, 2008 and April 12-19, 2013.
From December 3-5, 2008 gold stocks went up 119% to 126% in less
than a year.
Gold Stocks Underperform Oil Stocks By Over 50% in 131
Trading Days
The data for
gold stocks
(INDEXNASDAQ:XAU) starts on December 19, 1983. The data for oil
stocks (INDEXNYSEGIS:XOI) starts on August 26, 1983. On April 17,
2013, gold stocks underperformed oil stocks by 50.48% over the
previous 131 trading days. The lowest 10 readings for the $XAU:
$XOI ROC (131) since December 19, 1983 occurred on April 12-25.
No. 11 was December 4, 1997. Gold stocks went up 44% over the next
140 calendar days.
No. 12 was June 14, 2004. Gold stocks went up 38% over the next 156
calendar days.
$XAU Close in Relation to Trading Range (59 Trading Day
This indicator may require a bit of explaining. Let's say that
during the course of a day, a stock trades in a trading range of
$10 to $11. For this indicator, a close at $10 would equate to 0%
and a close at $11 would equate to 100%. On April 17, the $XAU
closed at an average of 35.49% of its trading range percentile over
the previous 59 trading days. So in our example, the average close
would have been $10.35. While that doesn't seem like a big deal,
since 1983, there has been only one time period when gold stocks
had such a confluence of subpar closes for such an extended period
of time.
What happened next? Gold stocks bottomed at 96.66 on January 31,
1995 and peaked at 155.6 on February 7, 1996. While the indicator
extreme did not mark the exact low, it was very close and it gave
an alert to an upcoming 60% rally. It is interesting to note that
over 18 years later, gold stocks are near not only the same
indicator level but the same price level as well:
4/17/2013 35.49% 98.85
Note that the maximum price of gold during all of those
aforementioned dates was $383.
Barron's Gold Mining Index to Gold
Instead of using the $XAU gold stock index, we are using the
Barron's Gold Mining Index (thanks to chartsrus.com). The Barron's
data is weekly and goes back to December 23, 1938 whereas the $XAU
data is daily and goes back to December 1983. So there are
tradeoffs with each approach. With this indicator, the Barron's
data is most appropriate. The following list contains the 12 lowest
ratios in history.
Gold stocks are the cheapest relative to gold in over 70 years.
From April 24, 1942 to March 8, 1968, this indicator was in a
secular uptrend. Since 1968, it has been in a secular decline. Are
we now at the bottom of the mother of all trading ranges and due
for a reversion to the mean? Or is the 1942 all-time ratio low a
mere pit stop in a secular shift in the relationship between gold
and gold stocks? While only time will answer this question, this
indicator can probably be placed in the bullish side of the ledger
for gold stocks until proven otherwise.
Barron's Gold Mining Index: Stocks ROC (26 weeks)
The following are the returns of gold stocks (not the ratio return)
when they underperformed the
(INDEXSP:.INX) by 43.3% in 26 weeks.
In summary, past history suggests that one should give strong
consideration to purchasing precious metal stocks.

I Can't Finish This Book (137)
Biggest Disappointments (388)
For some reason I have put off reading this book. For no true reason, but I am glad my book group read it recently. Set in Nazi Germany over a span of a few years, this is the story of young Liesel, a girl essentially sold to a German couple living outside Munich. In her short life Liesel had experienced tremendous loss, but when Papa and Mama take her in her life changes. Things do not get easier, but she is offered a glimmer of hope. She discovers books and words, and although she is slow at learning, words become her life. What is unique about this story is that is being told by Death - the Grim Reaper himself. Death becomes humanly personified as he relays the story of Liesel's life and how he encountered her several times, but not while taking her soul.
I learned much of Germany during the war years from this novel. The thing conveyed the most was that not all Germans were heartless and not all Nazi's were heartless monsters. Many had to make horrible decisions and sacrifices in order to survive a terrible war and a terrible situation. It was not as easy as simply refusing to join the party or to follow orders. In fact, it probably as much courage to stay and to try to protect one's family as it did to fight or to leave for safer haven's. This was a truly unique, special book.
What a wonderful book. Narrated by Death, we read the story of a young girl in wartime Germany. The setting really does make the story. There is rather a lot of death in it which could make uncomfortable reading for some but I found it enjoyable and really quite helpfully sombre. The audiobook version I listened to was excellently read by Allan Corduner.
This story is all the more heart-wrenching because it is so ordinary. Liesel Meminger is not heroic, or especially talented, or beautiful, she is just an ordinary good German girl trying to survive the horrors of World War II. It will stay with you long after the last page is turned.
The author was clever to make death the narrator of her tale, and he used interjections that reminded me of Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut. My only quibble is that it seemed overly long, I thought the middle could have used some editing.
The Book Thief was one of my favorite books as a child and I still enjoy it today. This story was very touching and relatable to a young reader, preferably late elementary or middle school readers. The story takes place in Nazi Germany during World War II and while the story does have a tragic theme where Death is the narrator, the story does develop a great sense of how difficult life was during this strenuous time in history. Death follows a young girl, Liesel, who lives with foster parents and starts to attend school. She learns how to read and makes friends with others that are different than her. While it is slightly morbid, I enjoyed that the narrator was Death and it was interesting to look through the eyes of an all-knowing-narrator such as Death. I also enjoyed watching the relationship between Liesel and Max, as well as Liesel and Mrs. Hermann grow throughout the book. While Liesel was not Jewish, she was brave enough to fight for someone that was in a very oppressive time period in Germany. The book is long for a young reader, but the book includes some illustrations and a lot of imagery to assist the reader.
A fresh perspective on the Holocaust and WWII Germany. The characters are three dimensional and warm. There is the added suspense of wondering when Death will come into the narrative, since Death is the narrator.
Amazing the way something so beautiful can be written about such a dark period. Involving and completely addictive.
This over-praised, overlong novel is in trouble before it starts. The acknowledgments open with a tribute to someone "who is as warm as she is knowledgeable" and continue in the same saccharine manner.
Unsettling, thought-provoking, life-affirming, triumphant and tragic, this is a novel of breathtaking scope, masterfully told. It is an important piece of work, but also a wonderful page-turner. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
This is a moving work which will make many eyes brim. Zusak shows us how small defiances and unexpectedly courageous acts remind us of our humanity. It isn't only Death who is touched. Liesel steals our hearts too.
This is never an easy read, never a glide. But, in Zusak's ability to imagine and execute, he has achieved a very personal vision that grabs the reader and does not let go.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0375842209, Paperback)It's just a small story really, about among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. . . .
Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak's groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement before he is marched to Dachau.
This is an unforgettable story about the ability of books to feed the soul.

This may seem obvious to most people, but I'm just trying to confirm that Dependency Injection (DI) relies on the use of Interfaces.
More specifically, in the case of a class which has a certain Interface as a parameter in its constructor or a certain Interface defined as a property (aka. Setter), the DI framework can hand over an instance of a concrete class to satisfy the needs of that Interface in that class. (Apologies if this description is not clear. I'm having trouble describing this properly because the terminology/concepts are still somewhat new to me.)
The reason I ask is that I currently have a class that has a dependency of sorts. Not so much an object dependency, but a URL. The class looks like this [C#]:
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
public partial class SomeLibraryService : SoapHttpClientProtocol
public SomeLibraryService()
this.Url = "http://MyDomainName.com:8080/library-service/jse";
The SoapHttpClientProtocol class has a Public property called
Url (which is a plain old "string") and the constructor here initializes it to a hard-coded value.
Could I possibly use a DI framework to inject a different value at construction? I'm thinking not since
this.Url isn't any sort of
Interface; it's a
[Incidentally, the code above was "auto-generated by wsdl", according to the comments in the code I'm working with. So I don't particularly want to change this code, although I don't see myself re-generating it either. So maybe changing this code is fine.]
I could see myself making an alternate constructor that takes a string as a parameter and initializes
this.Url that way, but I'm not sure that's the correct approach regarding keeping loosely coupled separation of concerns. (SoC)
Any advice for this situation?

Red Oak Partners Files Motion In Delaware Chancery Court To Seek To Compel Digirad Corp To Hold New Election Of Directors
NEW YORK, May 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 15, 2013, Red Oak Partners, LLC and the Red Oak Fund L.P. (collectively " Red Oak") filed a Complaint and Motion to Expedite a new meeting for Digirad Corporation (ticker "DRAD") shareholders to elect Directors in Delaware Chancery Court. Stated David Sandberg, Red Oak's Founder and Managing Member, "We are greatly disappointed with Digirad's insiders as we do not believe they held a fair election of Directors. Per the June 29, 2012 agreement, this same slate of Digirad Directors agreed to hold what we expected to be a fair election by May 5, 2013 when they asked us not to contest their re-election at that time. Instead we have learned, based on information provided to us by the independent Inspector of elections, Broadridge, and others, that Digirad's insiders generated and we allege improperly voted a proxy card for its treasury shares (approximately six percent of shares) in favor of its Directors and proposals early in the contest despite such shares being not legally eligible to be voted because they are shares which no longer exist – they are shares that have been bought back and were retired or available for re-issuance. Of note, the voting of the treasury stock required an authorized signatory of Digirad. Further, when Red Oak's advisors asked Digirad's advisor (Investorcom) where such treasury shares were held so that they could be tracked, Digirad's advisors - via email correspondence - refused to provide such information. We believe these shares had already been improperly voted at that time this information was witheld."Continued Mr. Sandberg, "Our suit alleges that preliminary results may not be provided or indicated to shareholders for multiple reasons, including because: 1) such predictions and information can sway investors with respect to their vote; and 2) micro cap companies have limited sell-side research and investors must instead rely on information and access to management to remain informed. If an investor is informed that one side is winning or likely to win, that investor is more likely to vote with the winning side so as to not be alienated from future communication with management. Despite this, we believe that Digirad's insiders artificially inflated the preliminary vote count by improperly voting its treasury shares (which effectively doubled their insider voting power) in their favor, and improperly communicated with shareholders using these inflated and preliminary results. On April 29, 2013, Digirad's CFO and its Chairman emailed Red Oak about their own knowledge that this form of communication was not permitted, yet Digirad and its representatives nonetheless made comments (as communicated to Red Oak from others) about the election "being a landslide," and "having it won" which were misleading and inaccurate vs. the actual results as reported. Final results show that Red Oak's nominees received approximately 46% of Director votes cast vs. 54% for Digirad's nominees – not a landslide, and in fact a close vote." Continued Mr. Sandberg, "We filed our preliminary and definitive proxies after Digirad so we could include shareholder information included in Digirad's tables - a fairly common practice in such contests. We therefore expected to mail our proxy and voting cards to shareholders after Digirad did. Although this would result in Digirad receiving more votes early in the process because shareholders received their voting information first, shareholders would receive our voting information in time to vote and before final results were tallied, and only final results matter in a fairly held election. However, we did not anticipate Digirad influencing early results and then improperly using early results to communicate with shareholders during the contest. Given these actions (and such a close final vote in spite of these actions), we are seeking a new and fair election to be held in which all sides must play by the rules." Concluded Mr. Sandberg, "Lastly, we are concerned that Digirad's insiders withheld the release of poor Q1 results until a single business day after the annual meeting. Digirad's share price declined 4% on its highest volume in over 2 weeks on the day the results were announced, and has continued to trade down. Insiders had possession of these results during a contest largely about whether their experience and qualifications could drive adequate results, thus we question how the most current operating results about the company - a year after these Directors joined the Board and which were known to them - could not be meaningfully relevant for shareholders to know about. This information was withheld coincident to Digirad's insiders improperly inflating voting results by voting the treasury stock and using such inflated preliminary information in their communications with shareholders. We don't believe a fair process has been overseen under the current Board and await the Court's decision regarding a new election." SOURCE Red Oak Partners, LLC

Fashion show planned
Thursday, April 17, 2014
The Strut Your Style fashion show and luncheon is May 5 at the Jefferson City Country Club.
The show is dedicated to the celebration of breast cancer survivors and all proceeds benefit The Community Breast Care Project, a nonprofit foundation that raises awareness of breast health and breast cancer treatment by providing educational, financial and emotional support to the Central Missouri community.
"This show is a celebration of breast cancer survivors who have been in the fight for their life," said Sherrie Brant, chairman of the show.
The show's 15 models are local cancer survivors, including two men.
The event also includes exhibit booths and a silent auction.
While the show is sold out, the public is invited to participate in two ways.
A framed painting — titled "Anticipation" — by local artist Terry Martin is on display at Cottonstone Gallery, 116 E. High St. The public is invited to stop by the gallery and place a silent auction bid on the item. The starting bid was $350.
Three items donated by NASCAR star Carl Edwards are also on display at Cottonstone Gallery. The items include a signed miniature replica of a Carl Edwards car and signed visors. Chances to win the visors are $1 a piece and chances for the replica car are $5.
