(Page 2 of 2)
The St. Patrick's Parade is a great day for the Irish: the sun is shining and it's a great parade. The bagpipers are marching, the fire departments are all cleaned up and participating, the Irish step dancers are performing and the crowd is in a festive mood. Then, towards the end, comes a small group holding a sign representing the Tea Party. I have heard of a block party, house party and even a Tupperware party, but Tea Party? Then it dawned on me: this is that obstructionist group with a political agenda. But it's the St. Patrick's parade. Should I have to think about this group of angry people pushing their politics when I am enjoying this fine day? It's bad enough that we have to put up with it in our political process, but not today.
I thought the parade was to be void of politics and political statements. At least I did not want to deal with it on such an event. Oh well. A pint of Guinness and this too shall pass, but wait until Monday.

I feel compelled to remark upon last week's writers assessment of the St. Patrick's Day Parade, particularly in his ignorant statements about the RVC Tea Party's participation in the Parade. The writer referred to the "Tea Party Patriots" as an "Obstructionalist group with a political agenda" (obviously confusing us with the malevolent "Occupy Wall Street ruffians of New York City Park, infamy). The writer further commented about "this group of angry people pushing their politics" and further said "I thought the parade was to be void of politics and political statements".
Let me say that I have been a member of the RVC St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee, since it's inception and was part of the committees who formulated the concept of the Parade which was to Honor the name of St.Patrick, to enjoy the many facets of Irish Culture which in great part developed along with other cultures to form this great and wonderful Country in which we now live. Another aspect of the Parade, far different than most celebrations of St. Patrick's day, was to raise funds for three different Charities each year. Each and every participating element of the parade made donations to those charities. Included was the RVC Tea Party Patriots.
In my position as Lead Judge at every Parade for the past 13 years, , along with 5 other judges peppered along the Parade route this year, we found NO violation of any rules concerning disrespect, rowdy conduct, misbehavior, or any other issue that might be considered offensive to the tenor of the day. Everyone, in spite of the cold and blustery day, enjoyed themselves immensely, (Except of course the one sad person who felt so offended by the Tea Party Patriots that he had to use the Herald to convey his wrath.).The Tea Party in particular marched with American, Irish and Gadsden Flags, and their Tea Party Banner leading their ranks of about 50 people. None of them brandished any 'political signs" whatsoever, nor did I perceive even ONE ANGRY FACE among them.
If there was ANY politics displayed during the Parade, it was that of US Senator Chuck Schumer, who never misses an opportunity to show-boat his presence with signs, bull horns, his intrusive Limo,and no less than 4 brutish escorts defending the Senator from the ire of incensed constituants. Normally, political figures and other dignitaries march at the head of the Parade. But apparently Schumer feels himself above them and marches when and where he feels like it
in complete indifference to Parade Protocols.
The RVC Tea Party Patriots were a fantastic presence in the Parade and have been these passed 3 years. They are present at our Village Memorial Day remembrances, and have made considerable contributions to our Servicemen and women in Iraq and Afghanistan, and to those who have come home from War seeking assistance. Their Patriotic fervor and American spirit uiplifted many along the parade route. We look forward to them coming back for many years in the future.

Goose Creek Moratorium lifted
By Derek Lacey / Staff Writer
The moratorium on new water connections in the Goose Creek basin has been lifted after more than a decade.
The moratorium, first established in 2002 to protect the federally endangered Carolina Heelsplitter Mussel, was lifted by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission by an unanimous vote Thursday, May 9.
The mussel lives in the Goose Creek Basin, but none have been found in Mint Hill.
The Goose Creek Basin covers the southeastern portion of the town, an area where roughly 30 percent of the Town of Mint Hill's population resides.
The moratorium has kept a large number of Mint Hill residents from receiving water service from Charlotte Mecklenburg Utilities.
"I'm really excited that folks that have been in town for many, many years now have the option of tapping onto Charlotte Mecklenburg water," said Town Manager Brian Welch.

The Chinese baller, who defeated Venus at the Beijing Olympics, pulled a Serena stunner knocking the world no. 1 off her perch in Stuttgart with a strange looking 0-6, 6-1, 6-4 scoreline and ending ReRe's short stay in the WTA Penthouse.

I've recently got an Android HTC Desire phone. I purchased Missing Sync expecting to use it with Entourage - and Entourage just didn't play nice.
So I've downloaded Zimbra desktop and it looks pretty sweet - so I'm looking forward to using it.
However, I haven't been able to find any instructions on how to sync with my HTC Desire phone.
Does anyone know if I'm able to do that using Missing Sync or is there something else I need to be doing?

I really like this idea!
Draw a flag of a country totally unique with its political map and some data on it.
I like this idea as well since I always flesh out my fantasy maps with socio-political boundaries. A simple red-duchy/blue-duchy doesn't suffice for me
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Hi everybody, I just lost several hours of work because of that rubbish license system. Let me explain myself.
I work for a company which want to migrate from Exchange to Zimbra. We have approximatively 250 account, fine, the 50->500 accounts license will do it. So I install zimbra, admin accound, license, create the domains, configure, etc.
As we want to move the mails one by one, we want to use the split domain features. That implies that for every mail that uses a domain hosted by zimbra, but where that email still lies on Exchange, I have to create an account on zimbra, and a redirection. Same for the aliases to these accounts. That's nearly 800, fine, I wrote a script.
But, as I have the 50-500 users license, it just won't let me insert more than 500 users. So i get another license for 500-2000 users, and think once the migration is done, hopefully within the 2 monthes of trial, I could migrate to the 50->500 one, and purchase support.
But no:
zimbra@mail:~/conf$ zmlicense -i /opt/zimbra/ZCSLicense2.xml
Error: exception occurred: can't change install type from trial to trial
Even if I have 62 trial days left, i just can't get more accounts.
So, what should I do? Reinstall everything from scratch, with a 500->2000 users license, although we just want to purchase the 50->500 one? Will it even be possible to change that at the end? What if our migration takes more than 2 monthes?
Or should I install the opensource version, and try to get support after our migration is finished? That's not so good as most of our problems may occur during the migration....
As a suggestion: let your customers change their licence as long as the 2 monthes trial are not over... thinking of reinstalling everything just to change the license makes me sick :(
Could someone help?

We've got users of every stripe and variety around here, and we started testing remote-wipe, as that was something we were interested in. We had no problems hooking the Droid and the Pre up via ActiveSync, which was really nice, but the remote wipe is failing on both of them.
In both cases, the server initiates the wipe, then reports the wipe as having been completed, but neither device actually wipes. Sync is suspended, however, which is at least a start, and if someone on the remote device tries a manual sync, it doesn't work either. (Blowing away the account and creating it again does successfully sync after that.)
Is this a function of the Droid and Pre not behaving as expected? I'm not surprised about the Droid, but I am a bit surprised about the Pre.
In further mild weirdness, the Droid actually shows up as *two* devices in the Mobile preferences page, one named MotoAndroid and the other named Android. Wipe is available for the MotoAndroid but not for the Android.

Associated Press Release
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- This week it will be one year since a chain of accidents on a foggy, smoky Interstate 75 near Gainesville killed 11 people.
The Florida Highway Patrol and the state have taken several steps to prevent a repeat of the Jan. 29 tragedy. The accidents happened shortly after the highway patrol had reopened the road, which had been closed for low visibility.
The FHP has reviewed all of its relevant policies governing road closures. A watch supervisor in each troop is now responsible for the oversight of all significant incidents.
It has trained more than 6,000 sworn Florida Turnpike Enterprise radio communications members and reserve troopers on road closure procedures and protocols.
The agency also now conducts an annual review its road closure protocols with the Florida Forest Service.

WEIRTON - The Brooke baseball Bruins pestered four Weir pitchers with 13 hits and they took advantage of eight Red Riders errors in an 18-5 victory at Ed Bowman Field on Monday night.
The Bruins sent 12 batters to the plate in the third inning and 13 batted in the fifth inning.
After Brooke scored two runs in the top of the first inning, the Red Riders, who lost their 11th game in 15 starts, exploded for five runs in the bottom of the second to take a 5-2 lead.
However, that was short-lived when the Bruins answered with seven in the top of the third inning and tacked on two in the fourth and seven more in the fifth.
"I'm proud of the job we did after getting behind early in the game," said Brooke coach Ron Ujcich, whose team evened its record at 9-9. "Even though we came back and got the lead, we still have to take care of business and do things the right way. We can't get lackadaisical in a game like this. We just have to continue to treat every pitch like it was in a championship game."
Sophomore Heath Hildreth was the beneficiary of the Bruins onslaught. He was efficient, scattering four hits, walking thre, and striking out three.
Weir starter Mitch Viakley took the loss, going 2 2/3 innings. He gave up four hits while walking three and striking out one. Zac Knuutila pitched two-thirds of an inning, Mike Curtis worked the fourth inning and Matt Cessna hurled the fifth.
"We only showed up that one inning where we scored five runs," Red Riders coach Bob Rosnick said. "That was it. I just hope we can get better. We practice and play every day. Hopefully, some day it will click and we'll starting making the plays. We just have to try harder."
Brooke opened the scoring in the top of the first inning when Russell Schwertfeger led off with a bloop single to center field. He stole second and moved to third on a groundout and scored when Nick Breen hit a grounder to deep shortstop.
Schwertfeger took off for home plate and scored under a throw from Josh Russell, the Rider shortstop. Breen later scored with Paul DiPasquale's grounder to second base was misplayed.
In the bottom of the second inning, the Red Riders got to Hildreth a little bit. Ryan Mendenhall led off the inning by ripping a double into the left center field gap and scored on Cessna's hit.
Curtis drew a walk from Hildreth. Cessna scored on Harley Mills' hit to left field and Curtis and Mills scored on Ryan Duke's single to center. Duke scored the fifth run of the inning when the Bruins misplayed Josh Russell's flyball in left field.
That was all of the scoring for Weir as the Bruins paraded 12 batters to the plate to erase the Red Riders lead and go ahead 9-5 in the third inning.
Hildreth, who helped his own cause with three hits and four RBI, singled in the big inning as did Breen, who also collected three hits. Steven Jeffries ripped a double into the gap to drive home Breen and send DiPasquale, who had reached base on an error, to third base. Brent Pellen worked a walk to load the bases.
DiPasquale scored on a sacrifice fly to center field by Kellen Welch. Then Mario Lombardi walked to load the bases again. Jeffries and Pellen scored when the Red Riders were unable to make a play at second base on Ethan Sole's ground ball. After Russell Schwertfeger walked, Hildreth rapped a double to the fence that cleared the bases.
The Bruins scored two more runs in the bottom of the fourth inning with two hits, another Jeffries double and a single by Welch.
Brooke blasted out six hits in the fifth inning to score seven runs and force the mercy rule victory.
Hildreth and Breen led the Bruin attack with three hits apiece. Schwertfeger, Jeffries and Welch each had two hits. Hildreth had four runs batted in and Welch had three.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Georgia's highest court has ruled that a woman who was 14 when she exposed her breasts during spring break in Panama City Beach to a man with a video camera has grounds to sue under Georgia law.
The man sold the clip of Lindsey Bullard for use in a "Girls Gone Wild" video. Bullard sued in federal court, seeking damages in 2004 after her image was used on a video cover and in television and online advertisements.
A federal judge says Georgia law on the matter was unclear and asked the Georgia Supreme Court to clarify whether Bullard had a viable claim.
In a unanimous opinion on Thursday, the high court says Bullard has the right to sue for "appropriation of likeness" under Georgia law despite the tape being shot in Florida.

Let the media maelstrom begin!
Andy Murray, who won his very first title on grass at Queen's Club this weekend, will be taking it back at Wimbledon - stylewise that is.
The Brit baller will be paying homage to the last man from the home country to win the season's third major: Fred Perry who won it in 1936. The 22-year old is, of course, sponsored by the legends eponymous clothing label.
From the pic, it looks like he'll again be working Nike kicks at The All England Club but this time from the brand's White/Gold Collection. There is also a retro zip up jacket and cricket style jumper to compliment the kit.
I love this throwback stuff for Wimby, including the cable knit tennis sweater and the shorter shorts. They could be shorter but I'll take what I can get. And the neutral colors against his already pasty skin really wash him out - but what's new?
UPDATE: More pics from the reveal...

I'm using zimbra 8.0.6 OSS
I needed to enable html code editing in signature (tinymce)
I changed the following file :
added code here :
theme_advanced_buttons2 : "formatselect,undo,redo,|,removeformat,|,pastetext ,|,tablecontrols,|,blockquote,hr,charmap,code",
It worked, but not immediatly. I wanted to add an other button. But now i'm stuck. Flushing cache both in zimbra and browser didn't help.
Neither did restarting zimbra.
I can see optSignatures_tag.class et optSignatures_tag.java have been generated with the good settings, but my modification don't appear.
There must be some cache, but tried everything and nothing worked. At least, i have my html code editor working, but i wanted to share my trick, but it doesn't seem to work always.
Any idea how zimbra is working under the hood (none of the doc i saw about jetty and zimbra helped) ?

from the kitchen of Jan Mertz
Baby Back Ribs
One Tblsp. each:
garlic powder
onion powder
chili powder
cayenne pepper
ground pepper
1/2 cup brown sugar
Mix well. Store in air tight container.
1/2 c. cider vinegar
1/2 c. light brown sugar
1/2 c. catsup
1/4 c. chili sauce
1/4 c. Worcester sauce
2 Tblsp. chopped onion
1 Tblsp. lemon juice
1/2 dry mustard
1 clove garlic, crushed
dash cayenne pepper
Mix in medium sauce pan. Simmer one hour, stirring occasionally. Will thicken when cool.
Jan says she doubles or triples this to keep in fridge.
Early in the day, sprinkle ribs with Rub mixture and massage spices into the meat.
Store uncovered in the refrigerator until time to bake, at least 4 hours.
Rub will dry and form a crust.
Remove meat from fridge. Place meat on a foil lined baking pan and cover tightly with foil.
Bake at 325 degrees for 2 hours.
Cool until time to grill or grill immediately, basting with BBQ Sauce while they cook. Only takes about 10 minutes, they need to be hot and have time for the BBQ sauce to caramelize.
Terri's notes:
~ These have a kick, if SWEET/slightly spicy is your thing, start with 1/2 Tblsp. each of the cayenne and chili powder or skip the cayenne and just use chili powder.

— A Viewer
I just love this figure. The articulation, the detail, the accessories, it is just...WOW. I think they did an outstanding job on this figure.

I am a avid collector of the vintage 3.75 G.I. Joes and now I'm a huge fan of the 1/6 scale Joes. I can't wait to see what's next in the line. The Crimson Guard figure is one my favorite characters and this figure is fantastic! Once you go 1/6 scale you may never go back!

I just got this guard and I'm loving him. The details on him are perfect. He looks great next to my Crimson Cobra Commander. All we need now are their commanders, Tomax and Xamot. Hint, hint.

I thought the viper was going to be my all time favorite but this topped the cake it is the coolest cobra and the articulation is far better than the viper or cobra commander. Then there is the detail which is stunning and overall brings a smile every time you see it, a MUST BUY for any Cobra fan.

agreed to terms on a one-year contract, the team announced on Friday.
Slauson, 27, spent his first three seasons in the NFL with the New York Jets
and started 48 of 51 games played after the team selected him in sixth
round of the 2009 NFL Draft out of Nebraska.
The 6-foot-5, 316-pounder should help a Chicago line that lost Lance Louis
this week after he signed with Miami, though the team also added Jermon
Bushrod this offseason to help solidify the left side of the line.

Thursday Afternoon News, October 18
Military Spooktacular
(Sioux City)-- Siouxland is doing its best to support military families, and Saturday's upcoming "Siouxland Military Family Spooktacular" is one way they are doing so. Lori Risdal, Airman and Family Programs Manager for the 185th Air Refueling Wing, says the "Joining Community Forces Initiative" is working to bring the resources as close to home as possible and include residents of Nebraska and South Dakota.
Listen to
The Joining Community Forces Initiative helps families connect with each other, they provide services and activities and are working on organizing other events like summer day camps in the Sioux City area for military youth to attend. Often these activities are only available by making the long drive to Des Moines, so the goal is to bring it all closer to home.
Saturday's event, The Spooktacular, is from 3-6pm at Camp Goodwill in Sioux City. The event is open to area families who have a service member currently serving in any branch of the Guard, Reserves or Active Duty. Activities for adults and children include food, crafts, games, hayrack trail rides, tricks and treats and a family costume contest. Families are asked to bring a bag of individually wrapped candies or snacks to share, otherwise the event is free. 150-200 people are expected to attend.
Risdal says a gathering like this is great for support and camaraderie.
Listen to
If you're interested in attending Saturday's Siouxland Military Family Spooktacular or would like to volunteer for this activity or others that are upcoming you can call Lori Risdal by Friday at (712) 233-0817. Becoming a part of the Joining Community Forces Initiative itself is another way for community members and businesses to become involved.
Dordt College To Hold Inauguration Ceremonies
(Sioux Center) -- Dordt College in Sioux Center will hold an inauguration ceremony for President Erik Hoekstra on Friday. Hoekstra, a Grand Rapids Michigan native, is the college's fourth president. He previously served as Dordt's provost. The inauguration will start at 11:00 a.m. at the B-J Hahn Auditorium on the Sioux Center campus. The event will feature music, faculty and staff representatives and liturgy. Hoekstra replaces Carl Zylstra, who stepped down at the end of the 2011-2012 school year.
Landlords Donate Money In Lieu Of Fines
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - At least 27 Iowa landlords made donations to the Iowa Civil Rights Commission in lieu of legal action for illegally discriminating against housing applicants.
The commission solicited and accepted at least $19,850 in "voluntary contributions" from 2006 through February 2011.
Ralph Rosenberg, the commission's director in 2006, says the practice was started to encourage rapid resolution of discrimination complaints. He says the attorney general's office agreed that soliciting donations in lieu of fines was acceptable under Iowa law. The office revisited the issue last year and
concluded it's not appropriate.
State court administrator David Boyd says the practice is frowned upon by the judicial branch because it gives the impression that justice is for sale.
Judge Gives More Time For Defendants To Respond To B-P-I Lawsuit
NORTH SIOUX CITY, S.D. (AP) - A South Dakota judge has given two men more time to respond to a $1 billion defamation lawsuit over a meat product that finely textured lean beef.
Judge Steven Jensen granted a 30-day extension for Carl Custer and Gerald Zirnstein to respond to the lawsuit brought by Beef Products Inc.
Custer, a former federal food scientist, and Zirnstein, the USDA microbiologist who named the product "pink slime," must now respond to the suit by Nov. 19.
BPI sued the two men as well as ABC News for $1.2 billion in damages for roughly 200 statements about the product that aired on ABC News.
BPI attorney Dan Webb says the reports led consumers to believe the beef is not meat, but an unhealthy slime unfit for human consumption.
Authorities Retracing Steps To Find Leads For Missing Cousins
EVANSDALE, Iowa (AP) - Officers have been retracing their steps as they continue investigating the disappearance of two young cousins in east Iowa.
Black Hawk County Sheriff Tony Thompson says investigators are still searching for any details that might have been overlooked since Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins went missing three months
ago in Evanston.
Lyric has turned 11 and Elizabeth has turned 9 since they were reported missing on July 13. Their bikes were found near Meyers Lake in Evansdale.
FBI officials have said they believe the girls were abducted.
Law Professor Testifies On Behalf Of Colleague
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - A University of Iowa law professor who testified on behalf of a colleague suing the school says officials are retaliating against him by falsely suggesting he was under
investigation for sexual misconduct.
Professor Mark Osiel testified Tuesday at the trial of Teresa Wagner, a Republican who says she was repeatedly passed over for teaching jobs because of her conservative views.
Osiel testified Wagner helped edit his book manuscripts and that she had great skills.
During the testimony, a state lawyer claimed Osiel recently faced a misconduct investigation after someone complained about sexual grunting noises in his office.
Osiel says the noises were him doing exercises suggested by his doctors and "there is no investigation." He says the claim "shows how low the university will stoop in retaliating against its employees."

The new plan that requires all property owners in the state to pay for some of the damage to the coast in a disastrous hurricane season is already increasing insurance company competition, according to the North Carolina Department of Insurance.
The North Carolina General Assembly passed the beach plan reform bill, after coastal insurance rates recently increased significantly.
North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Wayne Goodwin says within days of the passage of the bill, an insurance company has announced it will begin to offer policies to coastal residents next month.
"I want to thank the General Assembly for its leadership in passing legislation that brings more competition to North Carolina and helps not only homeowners in coastal counties, but across the state. I'm pleased that HB 1305 is working so quickly to bring competition and avoid an insurance availability crisis," said Commissioner Goodwin.
The North Carolina Department of Insurance says the bill caps the exposure of losses for insurance companies, which will increase competition.
If a hurricane season racks up more than $1 billion in private claims, homeowners across the state would be billed to help cover the cost.
For more details on which company will start offering coverage, click here.

The Lord of Death by Eliot Pattison
In this sixth of a series, former Beijing police investigator Shan Tao Yun, who has spent time in a punitive work camp in Tibet, comes across a traffic accident near Mount Everest.

In this book, private eye Mei Wang searches Beijing for a missing pop singer, while a young man recently released from a labor camp tries to make his way back to the capital.

Teen charged with attempted murder
Published: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 4:39 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 4:39 p.m.
OCALA – A 19-year-old man accused of firing several shots at another man Wednesday was arrested and charged with attempted murder.
Ocala Police Department Officer Kristen Whitston talked with the victim, who told her he was at his home, on Southwest Fifth Street, when the shooter drove by and stared at him continuously, according to a police report. The victim said he jumped into his vehicle and followed the man, later identified as Willie Thomas, to the 2000 block of West Silver Springs Boulevard.
The man told police he blocked Thomas' vehicle in a parking space and confronted him about some motorcycle thefts.
According to the report, Thomas got out of his vehicle with his hands in his pockets, backed away from the other man, and then somehow retrieved a gun and began shooting.
A witness told the officer he saw Thomas with a gun in his hand and that he was shooting at the other man.
The officer recovered two .45-caliber shell casings in the area of Southwest 21st Avenue and West State Road 40.
Police performed gunshot residue test on Thomas, which indicated he had fired a weapon, according to OPD.
He was arrested and taken to the Marion County Jail.
Detectives were continuing their investigation into the shooting.
Anyone with information about the incident can call Detective Stephanie McQuaig at 369-7029, Crime Line at 369-7061 or Crime Stoppers at 368-STOP, or visit www.ocalacrimestoppers.com. Tipsters also can text "ocalapd" and a tip to TIP411.

|Redman, Purkeypile open Strandz Salon
|Written by Darci Tomky
As of Monday, Jan. 28, sisters Misti Redman and Holli Purkeypile were open and ready for business at the new Strandz Salon, located at 101 E. Emerson in Holyoke.
The two are partners in this new business venture, a modern salon offering family haircuts, highlights, colors, perms, Shellac, pedicures, waxing and ear-piercing.
They also provide a large product line, with much more than just hair care items. They want to provide unique products and are very open minded about what they can offer to customers. If they don't have something, simply ask and Strandz can probably order it.
Holli Purkeypile and Misti Redman are excited to open their new business, Strandz Salon, at 101 E. Emerson in Holyoke.
Redman and Purkeypile have both owned salon businesses before, so they are excited to get back into the swing of things. The long and short of it is they have more time now and lots of new ideas, so it was a great opportunity to partner up for Strandz Salon.
Out of her 21 years of experience, Redman owned Misti's Mane Attractions for 13 years. Purkeypile has been in the hair care business for around five years, with a couple years as owner of Just For Looks in Imperial, Neb.
Strandz Salon will be open Monday-Friday, with Saturday and evening slots available by appointment. They will be honoring all gift certificates at the new salon.
To schedule an appointment at Strandz Salon, call 970-854-HAIR (4247), Redman at 970-466-3267 or Purkeypile at 970-466-9879.

Tell me if this happens to anyone else.
I open the Zimbra desktop.
I compose a message. This opens a compose window.
Before I hit send, I go to Firefox or Internet Explorer.
I find a web page with a "mailto:" email link.
I click on the link.
Zimbra RELOADS THE DESKTOP AND MY EMAIL GOES AWAY.
If I took a while before I clicked on the email link, then the automatic save has my message in the drafts area. If I click on the link before the automatic save, the message is lost.
This blows up on I.E. Firefox Chrome and Safari. I'm using Windows XP.
It blows up whether or not I open a compose in a new window or within Zimbra desktop.
Rarely it will open a dialog box which asks me if I'm sure I want to navigate away from the page and warns me that I may lose any unsaved data. But that's rare. At that point I can click Cancel and not lose my new message.
Oh, and here's the last kick, I never get a new Compose window with the clicked email address.
I checked this out on a co-workers PC and it blows up for her as well.
I don't consider this a bug. It's a complete breakdown. I'm using Zimbra as a mandate from management, so please help.

So if you use the set to set the private field when you return it using get you will get whatever it was set to. Or if you set the private field directly when you return it via the property get you will get whatever it was set to. For example
private String _test = "Test"; public String Test { get{return _test;} set{_test = value;} } String newString = Test; //newString value will be "Test" as that is what the get returned Test = "testSet"; //_test is now "testSet"; _test = "directlySet"; //_test is now "directlySet" and the Test get will return "directlySet"
So your question about ambiguity is as long as your get returns the correct private field then the field and property will remain the same.
If you do not declare method bodies for get or set
public String Test { get; set; }
then it will be the same as if you declared a private field as the compiler will generate one for you using the default constructor, you just will not be able to access the field directly
Also you are being told that set has no method body because you have given get one, so therefore it won't generate a method for the set. If you define get you either have to define a set or not have a set at all and vice versa.
You seem to be thinking of the property as its own field as well. The property holds no value, when you call the property it calls the get method, it does not remember the result, when you assign to it the set method is called, it does not remember the result. So calling the get method doesn't "update the property" it just returns whatever the get method says to return.

Video: How to make the most of Cyber Monday
ATLANTA -- Cyber Monday arrived on Cyber Sunday this year! Most major retailers began their online promotions on Sunday and will carry them through midnight Monday.
RELATED | Top Cyber Monday deals and where to find more
Before you hit the Checkout button, here are my top 5 Ways to Save on Cyber Monday.
1 - Compare Prices. This season, many toy prices are within pennies of each other at Walmart, Target, Amazon and Toys "R" Us this season, at least in many cases. Just to make sure you're getting the best price, compare prices at PriceGrabber.com or even through a simple Google Search.Priceblink.com will also compare prices and look for coupon codes for you while you are shopping online.
2 - Use Loyalty Cards. I love the Target Red Card, because it is a debit card that allows me to get free shipping on nearly all Target.com purchases, plus gets me a 5 percent discount on purchases. That often tips the scale in favor of Target over Walmart when it comes to price!
3 - Get Cash Back. If you start your search through Swagbucks.com you will earn Swagbucks, which can be redeemed for gift cards at Amazon and other retailers. Swagbucks, Ebates and several other sites offer rebates that vary on any given day. For example, Ebates was recently offering a 5 percent cash back bonus for shopping at Nordstrom.com.
RELATED | Earn prizes for searching the Internet?
4 - Buy Gift Cards for Free Gas. Kroger has a promotion that offers shoppers quadruple fuel reward points for purchasing a variety of other retail store gift cards (most are free) at Kroger gift card Kiosks. For example, if you buy a $200 Target gift card at Kroger, you will earn 800 Fuel Reward points. You can apply the points for discounts of up to $2 per gallon on gasoline, so a fillup of a 20 gallon tank would get you a $40 discount on gas. You must use fuel points the during the calendar month after you buy them. Keep in mind, Visa and Amex Gift cards usually have a processing fee. Most retail cards do not.
5 - Look for Free Return Shipping. Many retailers will offer free shipping, but returns can be expensive. Nordstrom.com, 6pm.com, Piperlime.com, Zappos.com, and Shoebuy.com all offer free return shipping. Target and Walmart give customers the option of returning many items bought online either in the store or by printing a free preprinted label. Other retailers like Victoria's Secret and Loehmann's offer free shipping and allow shoppers to return items in stores to avoid paying return shipping.
And by the way, running up credit card debt is harmful to your budget but running up credit card rewards is very helpful! If you can pay off your cards every month and carry a zero balance, why not take advantage of free perks like miles, cash back and hotel perks?

I didn't think they would take to the bath very well.
Scrubbing her arm pits,feet, and tushy.
Pink and Green Mama, MaryLea
sos cute....yes I used to always put baby dolls and soap in the sensory table when I taught preschool-----the kids love it!!
Love it! We also have only cloth body dolls around here, and I have set up a baby changing station in my toddler daughter's bedroom with an old changing mat, kitchen swabs cut to fit in an empty wipes conatainer and an empty powder bottle, but I think she will LOVE giving a doll a 'real' bath. Plus, her baby brother will be relieved, since he gets scrubbed by big sister in the bath each night whether he wants to or not!
That is adorable! I can't wait until my daughter is big enough for fun stuff like that! =)
have a fun vacation!
This is such a cute idea! We're having another baby in November, so Bekah would love "practicing" to help mommy and it will get her excited! Thanks!
We've never done this in the kitchen, just in the tub. This looks way more fun! I can hardly wait to try this.
We love washing doll clothes, too. We wash and rinse outside in basins, and line dry on a line I put up on the deck.
This post made me realize, again, how much I love being a Mom and playing with my kids. Thanks!
Mindy - You and Me both!! Being a Mama is the best job in the world : )
Congrats on the baby on the way! I think Bekah would have a blast with her own baby to take care of : )
I did a lot of role playing like that with "E" when I was pregnant with "C"
Oh that is such a good idea!
Love your blog...you are so full of fresh and wonderful ideas!!!
I love that your post starts with "don't judge me for shopping at Walmart" we live in a super rural area, and sometimes the only place you can get what you need, within an hour, is walmart, which is in the nearest city...you do what you can to avoid it, but occasionally you've gotta give in, (especially when the craft bug hits and you just HAVE TO HAVE glittery pom poms!!!)
much love
I like plastic dolls for this reason too. Actually, I bought my first daughter one from a second hand store and it is one of those old rubber dolls like we played with as kids - or maybe that was our parents? (the arms and legs don't move) and the kids love it.
This activity was always one of my daughter's favorites! Thanks for giving me permission to use your photo for my activity of the week.

For the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day, March 8, 2011, Equality Now has launched the 100 Steps to Equality campaign. We know that globally one in three women has faced some form of violence or abuse; 3 million girls in Africa are at risk of FGM every year, and that an estimated 500,000 women die of pregnancy-related causes annually. But what does the status of women look like on the ground every day in different parts of the world? The following is a compilation of facts and concrete ACTION STEPs, however small, that we can each take to reach towards equality and a better world for women and girls. Whether it is putting pressure on government officials, contacting your local news agency, making a donation or simply learning more about an issue and sharing it with friends, let us make a pledge to take a step towards equality. Happy International Women's Day!
NOTE: This campaign was launched for the 100th anniversary of international women's day on March 8, 2011 and therefore some of the issues highighted here may have changed.
|FACT: Lebanese women married to non-Lebanese partners cannot pass on their citizenship to their children.
ACTION STEP: Lebanon must change its nationality laws and grant women equal citizenship rights.
|FACT: In Afghanistan, Shia women are required by law to seek their husbands' permission to work.
ACTION STEP: Call on the Afghan government to stop blatant discrimination against Shia women by amending the Shia Personal Status Law.

text: Hello everyone, my name is Jesse. I just joined the forum and figured I would introduce myself so you guys/girls know who is starting to lurk around. I have three girls, a newborn son, and a very lazy beagle. We all reside in the wet side of Oregon, but spend most of our rec time east of the cascades. My family loves mule deer and pretty much any other animal you can hang a tag on. We recently started branching out and applying to Utah, Nevada, and Wyoming. So if you want to give up your hard earned honey holes or half your bonus points you can PM me. Jk of course, figured I better break the ice and let you know I can take a joke. Anyways, I will be around and offering help to the ones I can in Southeast OR or just conversing about our sport. Thanks for your time.

SHADYSIDE - Not even weather better suited for ducks than thinclads could slow down the Martins Ferry girls and Linsly boys Saturday at Fleming Field.
The 41st annual Shadyside Relays took place in a steady stream of rain, but the Purple Riders and Cadets persevered through it all to head home with the top prizes.
''We had a feeling all week about what the weather would be like,'' Martins Ferry coach Rich Materkoski. ''We just told our kids they had to suck it up and run, and I didn't hear one complaint all day even through being at the track for about eight hours. I am definitely proud of the effort all of our kids put forth.''
The Martins Ferry girls cruised to the hardware with 122 points as Materkoski wanted his squad to leave no doubt.
''We always point to this meet as a gauge for our season,'' Materkoski said. ''It's basically the midway point and it's a good chance to see a lot of the teams we'll see in the OVAC (in two weeks). We always want to have a good showing at the Shadyside Relays. It's one of the premier meets in the area.''
The message came across loud and clear as Ferry's depth and individual talent took over. The Purple Riders won seven events as they now turn their attention to trying to win their first girls' Buckeye 8 track title Tuesday at Nelson Field in Bellaire.
Sophomore Nikki Allen got the Purple Riders going when she skimmed 10 hurdles in 17.21 to claim the high hurdle crown.
Classmate Sarah Applegarth continued her brilliant campaign in the 400-meter dash. She circled the oval in a solid 61.84 for the gold.
Junior Sunshine Wrenn - one of the Purple Riders' most versatile competitors - continued to shine in the 800-meter run, winning the two-lap title for the second straight weekend. She posted a 2:28.71 for the victory.
''We refer Sunshine as a hybrid runner,'' Materkoski said. ''We can put her in anything from the 100 to the 1,600 and you'd never tell the difference. She had a really good meet.''
Sophomore Ashlei Ray got things rolling for the Purple Riders when she won the long jump with a mark of 15-foot-5.
The Purple Riders cemented their victory thanks to victories in the 800 meter relay, 3,200 meter relay and shuttles.
The 800 relay team of Applegarth, Allen, Wrenn and Taylor Jenkins ran two laps in 1:52.12.
The 3,200 relay team, which consisted of Jamie Truchan, Alyssa Smith, Brenna Becca and Wrenn ran a 10:29.54 for the gold.
The shuttle team sent the Riders into the lunch break on an up note when the squad of Courtney Crolley, Allen, Ashley Griffith and Rikki Allen posted a solid 69.93 for the hurdle relay title.
Jenkins, while she didn't win an open event, still put forth enough points to claim the meet's high-point award on the track. Along with her leg on the 800, she also finished second in both the 100 and 200 meter dashes.
''We were able to score a lot of points in a lot of places,'' Materkoski said. ''We're a pretty balanced team with a variety of points.''
St. John Central finished with 32 points in the meet and 18 came off the talented legs of freshman standout Fallon Doyle.
For the second straight weekend, Doyle needed to use her furious kick in the final 150 meters of the 1,600 meter race to prevail. She tracked down Shadyside junior Tara Tollett and went on to post a 5:11.66 for the victory. She also finished second to Wrenn in the 800.
Bridgeport's girls claimed two individual titles almost in back-to-back races.
Sophomore Cheyenne Flowers captured the 300 meter low hurdles in 52.65, while freshman speedster Brianna Massey pocketed the 200 title in a solid 27.47 clocking.
The host Tigers' lone victory came in the first running final of the day. Tollett smashed the meet record in the 3,200 meter run with a time of 11:05.82. Her effort for eight laps was almost 24 full seconds better than the mark set last season by St. Clairsville's Jamie Perzanowski.
Barnesville's lone victory came in the high jump. Senior Amy Wahl soared 4-10 to claim the high jump crown.
St. Clairsville, which sent a limited lineup to because it was prom night, was led by junior all-Ohioan Alyssa Robinson. The shot putter remained unblemished in the event with a put of 42-1, which broke a meet record that had stood since 2000.
Weir earned the final victory when the team of Chantelle Harper, Shelva Burns, Kayla Lemley-Raiford and Raven Young posted a 4:36.86 to win the 1,600 relay.
Steubenville Central claimed the 400 relay when the foursome of Michaela Gotta, Monica Rigaud, Maria Boston and Taylor Zapolnik passed the baton around the oval for time of 55.07.
The Linsly boys have speed and track is the ultimate speed sport. It worked out quite well, but it was a little bittersweet in the process.
The Cadets scored 98 points, won four events, had the meet's high scorer on the track, but they also appeared to have lost talented senior sprinter Ricky Jordan. In the 200 meter final, Jordan, who'd just returned to the Cadets lineup last weekend at Monessen, Pa after a hamstring injury, pulled up lame in the half-lap dash.
Senior Chris Stephens had an impressive meet, sweeping the 200 and 400 meter dash en route to the high-point award. He posted times of 22.89 and 50.59, respectively.
The Cadets' 400 team of Mark Dodd, Jordan, Akil Blount and Chinelo Oparanozie posted a 46.38 for the gold. The 800 relay team of Oparanozie, Robert Felton, Stephens and Jordan ran a 1:34.99 for the title.
Martins Ferry was sparked to its runner-up finish thanks to a double victory in the weight events.
Junior strongman Sean McGee won the discus to get the day started with a twirl of 141-7, which was better than 15 feet further than the runnerup.
In the shot put, McGee launched the iron ball to a mark of 51-9.5.
McGee's double gold earned him a piece of the high-point field. He shared it with Buckeye Trail sophomore Austin Carleton, who won both the high and long jumps.
The Purple Riders' only individual victory on the track came in the 110 high hurdles where senior standout Richie Padyjasek posted a 15.14 to win the crown.
The Purple Riders' shuttle team of Padyjasek, Jack Fitch, Brian Styles and Travis Jenkins ran a 63.93 for the hurdle relay title.
St. Clairsville's lone victory came thanks to sophomore speedster Jaylon Brown who beat Jordan in the 100 meter dash final. Brown posted an 11.09 for the title, which was seventh hundredths of a tick quicker than Jordan.
Barnesville's Brandon Stephens prevailed in the 800 meter run, circling the oval in 2:03.95 for the title.
Bridgeport senior ace Cody Frey was especially impressive in winning the 300 intermediate hurdle crown. Attacking every hurdle, Frey ran a 40.05, which was better than a full second faster than the runnerup.
Magnolia's lone victory came in the final event. The Blue Eagles' 1,600 team of Nick Blatt, Kage Rohde, Drew Estep and James Haught posted a 3:44.55 for the gold.

Kansas City farm system rated highly by MLB.com, ESPN.com
MLB.com and ESPN.com both published rankings yesterday that touted the Royals' farm system. MLB.com ranked the Top 50 Prospects throughout baseball. Third baseman Mike Moustakas (pictured at left), catcher Wil Myers, right-handed pitcher Aaron Crow and lefty Mike Montgomery all cracked the Top 50. Kansas City was one of just three clubs with four prospects on the list (Tampa Bay and Texas were the others.) If you do the math…50 prospects, 30 teams, that's an average of 1.67 prospects per organization and the Royals have four! Nine teams had one prospect on the list and four teams were not represented. For more information on this list, read Dick Kaegel's column at royals.com.
ESPN's Keith Law came out with his annual ranking of farm systems from 1 to 30. He pegged Kansas City at number 9 on this year's list. Law compliments the Royals on their "sheer number of arms" and states that the Royals "could easily be a top-five system in a year."

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- Dr. Judy Wiseman registered with Angie's List to hire a housecleaner.
Like other rating services, Angie's List says its grades are based on real customer reviews.
"Angie's List rated this business with an "A." But, I had to go behind them after they had left and dust areas that were supposed to have been cleaned. I would have to give it no better than a "B."
Margot Gilman says it's not unusual to disagree with user reviews.
But, be wary of going with companies at the top of the search results.
"We've found that businesses with "A" or "B" ratings also pay for advertising to rise to the top of the default search results on Angie's List. It's a big advantage," says the Consumer Reports Money Adviser.
Other rating services, including Yelp and Google Plus Local were also checked out.
Gilman says, "Google Plus Local didn't respond when we asked how it verifies that its reviews are from real customers. Yelp told us that they have a way to identify and delete bogus reviews, but admitted that the system has not been objectively tested."
Yelp also allows businesses to buy their way to the top in search results.
But, unlike Angie's List, Yelp clearly labels the ad.
"I think there's really no substitute for using family and friends for references for this type of service," Judy Wiseman says.
"Bottom line, ratings services aren't perfect, and we saw ratings for the same business can vary significantly from site to site. But, if you can't get a recommendation from someone you know, it may be worth it to look up a business on several sites," says Margot Gilman.
Do Online Review Services Deliver What They Promise
In most communities, Angie's List charges subscribers. Yelp and Google Plus are free.
And, you can always go to the Better Business Bureau to check out a company. It's a free service, too.
