I have a two level deck which my contractor promised would be water proof. The upper deck is constructed of 4x8 pressure treated ply, all the seams were caulked, a layer of ice and water shield was applied over top and the deck boards screwed down. Needless to say the decking is not waterproof and I am not able to enjoy the lower deck during wet weather. If anyone knows how I might be able to correct I would like to hear from you. If possible detailed information would be extremely helpful when I discuss corrections with my contractor.Thank you.

The deck boards were screwed through the shield. I understand that this is the reason it now leaks. What can you suggest as a remedial action?
No, you'll have to remove the decking and lay down another moisture barrier but this time use what is called "duck boards" it is basically a floating deck.
I found a good example w/ pics for you at this BC site: http://members.shaw.ca/provip/products.htm With your weather in Ont. it would even be more important with the freeze thaw.

Another option is to use the under deck systems, even to go to a vinyl decking now you would have to remove the shield... which isn't so easy.

Thank you! I will spend some time and review the information on that site. Someone else suggested "torch down". Are you aware of the details of this technique?
Yes, that would also require you to remove the ice & water shield you have down now. That is the way I would have done it, then the floating deck (duck boards) above that. You do have to understand I haven't seen the project though, there may be some reason for your contrator to use the ice & water shield in that location too?
Hot mop is another choice.

Glee – Season 5 Episode 2 – Recap – Tina In The Sky With Diamonds
It's another year of prom at McKinley. What are they gonna fill the rest of the season with if we're already near the end of the school year?
Here is our recap for season 5 episode 2 of Glee: Tina In The Sky With Diamonds.
Last week, Sam had promised to take Tina to the prom but now wishes he was going with someone "he actually cares about." Um, rude. Tina doesn't need him anyway and ends up going with a bunch of single girls. Prom King nominations: Stoner Brett, Blaine, and Artie. Prom Queen nominations: Kitty and Tina. Thrilled at her nomination, Tina begins a solo of "Revolution" only to have it cut short a few seconds in. Love the continuity.
New head Cheerio and mean girl Bree makes it her mission to destroy Tina to secure that a Cheerio wins Prom Queen. She enlists the help of a nerdy girl to arrange a scene straight out of Carrie. Instead of pig's blood, it's a whole lot of cherry slushie. As Tina wins Prom Queen, it is dumped all over her. Why does this show hate Tina so much? The group convinces her to stay with a random performance of "Hey Jude." I'm happy Tina's happy but this whole scene is weird. In case you're wondering, Stoner Brett is Prom King.
Instead of punishing her, Sue promotes Bree to captain and asks that she continue to torture the Glee club. As for Sam, he engages in an inappropriate relationship with the new hot nurse and I'm disturbed when she gives him a shot in the bum.
Over in New York, Santana has landed her first gig in a yeast infection commercial. Yeast-I-Stat! "I like yeast in my bagel, but not my muffin." LOL. Santana is a busy bee this week. She gets a new girlfriend, Dani (guest star Demi Lovato). The duo give the only performance of the night that doesn't have me reaching for my earplugs. "Here Comes The Sun" is just lovely.
The diner gets one new employee as Kurt gets a job there with his friends. On his first night, the trio have something to celebrate as Rachel learns she has gotten the part in Funny Girl. Cut to a performance of "Let It Be" that spans across the nation. This is nice and all but let's face it, we're all waiting for the preview for next week.
I wept openly when I saw it.

I've been having a play around with Mootools 1.3 server-side today. Its really nice took some bashing to get it Classic ASP friendly but still full of goodness (tm).
While showing a friend what Mootools can do I came across a strange ASP related error that I've not seen before.
Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a138f'
'Response.WriteBlock(...)' is null or not an object
The code that caused it is one of Mootools funky "forEach" helpers:
[1,2,3].each( function( i ) {
Response.Write( "" + i + ", " );
It really does not like this code at all. I commented out the Response.Write and had an empty block and it still threw the error. Very odd. I know ASP does some optimisation magic to group html blocks and asp blocks together (hence the Reponse.WriteBlock comment) but not sure why this would apply here.
This code will run however:
var fruits = [];
fruits.push( "apples" );
fruits.push( "oranges" );
fruits.each( function( fruit ) {
Response.Write( "" + fruit + ", " );
// As will this
var nums = [ 1,2,3,4,5 ];
nums.each( function(i) {
Response.Write( "" + i + "" );
Has anyone got any ideas what is happening to cause this error? I'll keep digging but wondered if any fellow JScript guys could shed some light. Might just be a ASP quirk?
Wierdness continues, managed to get it to work but it seems to depend on what comes before the each loop. So to recap this does NOT work:
[ 1,2,3,4,5 ].each( function(i) {
Response.Write( "" + i + "" );
But this does (notice just the addition of the var line above it):
var something = 1;
[ 1,2,3,4,5 ].each( function(i) {
Response.Write( "" + i + "" );
Very odd indeed. Must be something to do with the way ASP is treating the blocks, maybe there is a rule in the parser about blocks starting with an (what it would see as rather random) array statement or at least its not be programmed to expect me to do that (I don't think they imagined server side mootools way back when)! Would still like an indepth explanation though so I can better avoid it.

This invention relates to pump apparatus for evacuating containers. The invention is particularly adapted to evacuate air from food storage containers, such as jars and plastic sacks.
The prior art is prolific in patents that disclose various types of pumps for evacuating air from food containers. The most pertinent patents to the present invention are believed to be U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,313,444 issued April 1, 1967; 4,278,114 issued July 14, 1981; 4,575,990 issued March 18, 1986; and Swiss Pat. No. 200360 having a Veroffentlicht date of January 2, 1938.
These patents disclose pump apparatus for evacuating either rigid containers (jars) or deformable containers (plastic sacks), but not both. Additionally, the arrangements most pertinent to this invention employ complex and difficult to apply check valves to the covers (or lids) of rigid containers which are to be pump evacuated.
Accordingly, a principal object of this invention is to provide relatively simple, inexpensive and effective apparatus for evacuating both rigid and deformable containers, such as jars with lids and also plastic sacks.
Another object is to quickly, simply, and inexpensively evacuate (or reevacuate) and seal, permanently or temporarily any store-bought, throw-away, food jar and lid that was originally vacuum sealed.
The pump apparatus of this invention consists of three principal components; in particular, (1) a specially designed disposable/reuseable, pressure-sensitive, adhesive-tape check valve that adheres to a container lid and covers a small air evacuating hole, (2) a reciprocating two-stroke piston pump that features an efficient piston-check-valve and a vacuum cup which cooperates with plugable porting to provide for evacuation of both rigid and deformable containers, and (3) an accessory probe which is plugged into the pump to evacuate deformable containers such as plastic sacks.
With the pump apparatus of this invention, a jar can be reused to store anything that will fit and which will keep better in a vacuum. The apparatus also pulls a vacuum on an ordinary plastic zipper-lock type bag and allows the zipper to be closed without loosing the vacuum. The apparatus will also evacuate any leak proof bag that might be sealed with a commercial home-style hot-sealing machine.
The advantages of the invention are manyfold. The pump apparatus weights less than a pound, is simple to operate, is easy to disassemble and reassemble (no tools required) for cleaning or storage, has only one moving part, pulls a high vacuum, (more than 27 inches mercury), is portable, and is not messy or dirty.
In order that all of the structural features for attaining the objects of this invention may be understood, reference is made to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is an elevation view in section of the pump apparatus of this invention during a piston up-stroke applied to the lid of a container (food jar) to evacuate air from the inner container cavity which holds the material (food) to be preserved;
FIG. 2 is a section view taken along line 2--2 of FIG. 1 which shows a plan view of a specially designed disposable/reusable, pressure-sensitive, adhesive-tape check valve applied to the container of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a section view taken along line 3--3 of FIG. 1 which shows the vent hole for the pump piston;
FIG. 4 is a fragmentary section view of the pump piston during a piston down-stroke;
FIG. 5 is a plan view of the adhesive-tape check valve with its peel-off, throw-away backing attached to protect the adhesive layer and the elastomer pad of the valve;
FIG. 6 is a section view taken along line 6--6 of FIG. 5 which shows the several layers of the adhesive-tape check valve and the encapsulated elastomer pad;
FIG. 7 is an elevation view in section of an optional probe specially designed to evacuate plastic bags;
FIG. 8 is a section view taken along line 8--8 of FIG. 7 which shows the internal construction of the check valve used in the probe of FIG. 7; and
FIG. 9 is a view in-part perspective and in-part in section showing the application of the pump with the probe of FIGS. 7 & 8 to a plastic sack containing material to be preserved.
Referring to the drawings, the principal components of a first embodiment of the invention (FIG. 1) comprises piston pump 1 and adhesive-tape check valve 2 (FIGS. 5 & 6). This first embodiment is particularly adapted to evacuate rigid containers, such as jar 3, by applying check valve 2 over a small hole punched in lid 4 of jar 3.
An optional second embodiment of the invention (FIG. 9) employes pump 1 in association with probe 5 (FIG. 7) to evacuate a non-rigid container, such as plastic sack 6. In the second embodiment, adhesive-tape check valve 2 is not used, and an in-line check valve 7 (FIGS. 7 & 8) having a rigid housing is inserted in the air line of probe 5.
In the first embodiment, plug 8 is inserted in side port 9 (FIG. 1) to block a side inlet; however, in the second embodiment plug 8 is removed from the side port 9, and check valve 7 end of probe 5 is inserted in side port 9. Plug 8 is inserted in the throat of vacuum cup 10 (FIG. 9) to block any possible passage of air through the vacuum cup and to convert the vacuum cup into a suction cup so that the pump assembly can be affixed to a table.
Piston pump 1 is used in both embodiments without any change in structure. In particular, the pump consists of a 13/4 inch diameter vacuum cup 10 fabricated from a flexible soft plastic and is fixed to one end of plastic tube 11. Tube 11 defines a pump cylinder the bore of which houses a uniquely designed 0-ring piston-check-valve 12. The piston-check-valve is connected to one end of a spring-loaded, metal or plastic rod 13; and a manually actuatable push-pull knob 14 is fixed to the other rod end to reciprocate the piston-check-valve to effect air evacuation. Rod 13 need not be spring loaded when evacuating a jar.
In a preferred embodiment, pump 1 is approximately 14 inches long when assembled for use. Tube 11 is approximately 6 inches long and it has a 7/8 inch outside diameter. For shipment, cleaning and storage, the pump may be broken down to about 9 inches with one simple jerking motion which separates top end cap 15 from cylinder 11. Alternately, the pump assembly may be conveniently stored in a broom clip on a wall or cabinet door.
Bottom end cap 16 couples vacuum cup 10 to the lower end of tube 11. Side port 9 extends through both tube 11 and bottom end cap 16. Plug 8 is inserted in port 9 when air is to be evacuated from jar 3 through the central passage formed by throat 17 of vacuum cup 10, as is shown in FIG. 1. Tube 11 and end caps 15 and 16 are preferably formed of rigid shatter resistant CPVC plastic. The tube and end caps could also be fabricated of glass or metal.
An inwardly projecting annular lip 18, which defines a centrally located hole, is integrally formed on the lower portion of bottom end cap 16. Neck 19 of vacuum cup 10 is formed with an annular recess 20 which engages lip 18 when neck 19 is press fit through the hole formed by lip 18. The special shape of the bottom end cap defines a small Chamber into which adhesive-tape check valve 2 can move up and down. Without this chamber vacuum cup 10 would be sucked flat by the pumping action, thereby ultimately defeating the operation of adhesive-tape check valve 2.
Top end cap 15 is formed with a central hole to enable spring-loaded rod 13 to reciprocate within the cylinder cavity defined by tube 11. Knob 14 is threaded onto the upper end of the rod. Helical return spring 21 envelopes rod 13 between knob 14 and top end cap 15. The return spring is sized for easy operation and to supply sufficient force to provide adequate vacuum with a reaonable number of strokes, and to withstand many operations.
Spring 21 and rod 13 are continuously lubricated by an oil saturated felt washer 22 sandwiched between a flat steel washer 23 and top end cap 15. Return spring 21 keeps washer 22 in permanent compression so as to fit tightly around rod 13.
Body 24 of piston-check-valve 12 is fabricated from a machined or molded plastic, metal, or ceramic. The outer periphery of piston body 24 is formed with an annular groove 25. This groove width is oversized relative to the cross-section of its contained O-ring 26, and the groove diameter is tapered and small at one end relative to the inside diameter of its contained O-ring, in order to provide proper pumping action which requires movement of the O-ring within the groove. A small piston vent hole 27 (FIG. 3) or notch provides an air passage from groove 25 through the upper portion of body 24.
Body 24 is sized diameterwise so as to have a loose fit relative the inner cylinder wall Of tube 11. Air flows between body 24 and tube 11 unless this passage is blocked by O-ring 26.
Piston-check-valve 12 is open during the down-stroke (FIG. 4). In particular, during the piston down-stroke, O-ring 26 is forced upwardly against the top of oversized groove 25 by friction engagement with the cylinder wall. Accordingly, air flows around the periphery of the lower portion of piston body 24 into groove 25 below O-ring 26, and ultimately through piston vent hole 27 into the upper cylinder cavity.
Piston-check-valve 12 is closed during the up-stroke (FIG. 1). In particular, during the piston up-stroke, O-ring 26 is forced downwardly against the bottom of oversized groove 25 by friction engagement with the cylinder wall. This action closes off the air passage otherwise appearing between the loose fitting piston body 24 and the adjacent cylinder wall. During the piston up-stroke, air confined in the cylinder Cavity located above body 24 is forCed out of pump 1 by a venting passage formed between rod 13 and top end cap 15.
During the piston up-stroke, adhesive-tape check valve 2 is open, as is shown in FIG. 1, thereby evacuating jar 3 of air. Conversely, during the piston down stroke, check valve 2 is closed.
Adhesive-tape check valve 2 (FIGS. 5 & 6) may be rectangular or chevron shaped in the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings. Either configuration facilitates reciprocating action which is necessary for a reliable check-valve action. The point of the chevron shaped valve may be preferred by some for easy removal of the valve or release of the vacuum.
Adhesive-tape check valve 2 is formed with a tape layer 28 which is coated with an adhesive layer 29. The adhesive-tape is supported on a throw-away, peel-off backing 30 whose ends 31 and 32 extend beyond layers 28 and 29.
An elastomer pad 33 which serves as a valve seat is captured in the central portion of tape layer 28 between adhesive layer 29 and backing 30. A preferred sealing material is a low durometer (about 30, Shore A) FDA elastomer pad of approximately 0.31×0.31×0.020 inch which is bonded to the adhesive layer of the tape. The tape and sealing material that make up valve 2 can be reused many times.
The actual construction of valve 2 is accomplished by running a roll of vinyl adhesive-tape partially around a roller having a groove. The non-sticky side is in contact with the roller. The tape is manipulated so it conforms to the groove in the roller. Another roller in close proximity to the first has a roll of backing material partially wrapped around it. The backing is about 15 inches wide and the vinyl tape is 1.0 inches wide. The two tapes are roll pressed together. The void created by the groove in the first roller is filled with an FDA (food grade) uncured silicone rubber that is injected into the void just at the pinch line of the two rolls. After the silicone rubber cures the valves are die-cut through the vinyl tape and silicone rubber but not through the backing. The valves are then distributed in lengths containing 25 to 50 valves per length.
In preparation for evacuating resealable jar 3, a small hole is punched in lid 4 near the center of the lid. Check valve 2 is placed (with peel-off backing 30 removed) with elastomer sealing pad 33 covering the small hole. During operation, vacuum cup 10 is placed on lid 4 over valve 2 (FIG. 1). As knob 14, rod 13, and piston-check-valve 12 are pushed down, piston-check-valve 12 is opened and adhesive-tape Check valve 2 is closed. As spring 21 returns piston-check-valve 12 and rod 13 to its extended position, piston-check-valve 12 is closed and adhesive-tape check valve 2 is opened and air is drawn from jar 3 by the vacuum created by piston pump 1. The knob may also be pulled up manually if the spring is not used. The spring tension and piston diameter are designed to cause a vacuum, in the range of 25 to 27 inches of mercury, to be attainable.
Repeated reciprocations are made until jar 3 is adequately evacuated, which is noted by only a partial return of the knob 14 and rod 13 assembly to its fully extended position, or by the feel of a tightly adhered vacuum cup to the jar lid. This feeling of tightness can be compared when pump 1 is sucked tight to that of a smooth flat surface with no hole or other leaks. The number of reciprocations required for adequate evacuation varies with the volume of air in the jar. Maximum vacuum may be reached with as few as two reciprocations.
After jar 3 has been adequately evacuated, pump 1 is removed with adhesive-tape check-valve 2 remaining in place. When one desires to open jar 3, all that is necessary to release the vacuum, is simply to lift the sealing pad portion of valve 2 only far enough to uncover a portion of the hole in lid 4. After the hissing noise stops, the vacuum has been released and the jar may be more easily opened.
Contrary to the belief of some, nearly all of the vacuum sealed "throw-away" jars on the market today may be permanently resealed. Furthermore, by using pump 1 of this invention, the same jar, lid, and adhesive-tape check-valve 2 may be resealed many times. And, since adhesive-tape Check-valve 2 is itself reuseable, it may be transferred to another jar lid.
Additionally, using pump 1 of this invention, allows any store bought sealed jar to be easily opened, even by people with small and/or arthritic hands. Punching the hole in the jar lid, releases the vacuum that initially caused the jar to open with difficulty. After releasing the vacuum the hole may be covered with the adhesive-tape check valve in preparation for resealing.
The second embodiment of this invention shown in FIGS. 7, 8 and 9 employes an accessory kit which forms probe 5. Probe 5 is employed to evacuate non-rigid containers, such as plastic sacks (FIG. 9). Probe 5 (FIG. 8) comprises a central section of an FDA approved flexible plastic tubing 34, a straight length of FDA approved rigid plastic tubing 35 inserted into the first end of tubing 34, and an in-line check valve 7 inserted into the other end of plastic tubing 34.
In-line check valve 7 is formed with a plastic housing body 36 that defines an internal cavity that contains a flexible valve seat disc 37 formed from FDA approved material. The periphery of the disc flexes to open and close the valve. Access to this internal cavity is obtained through apertured inlet nipple 38 and through apertured outlet nipple 39. Stop 40 limits the movement of valve seat disc 37 within housing body 36.
When probe 5 is used, the free end of rigid tubing 35 is inserted into the open end of sack 41 (FIG. 9). A foam block 42 is preferably manually employed to hold tubing 35 in place and to keep the sack sealed around tube 35 during evacuation.
Plug 8 is removed from side port 9 (the position shown in FIG. 1), and reinserted into central throat 17 of vacuum cup 10 (the position shown in FIG. 9). Outlet nipple 39 is inserted into port 9, and manual pumping is started as described with respect to the first embodiment of FIG. 1. The periphery of valve seat disc 37 flexes within the cavity of housing body 36. During the down-stroke, disc 37 closes inlet nipple 38; and during the up-stroke, disc 37 flexes against stop 40 thereby opening the check valve to permit air evcuation as previously described with respect to jar 3. When sack 6 has been adequately evacuated, probe 5 is removed from the sack, and the sack clamped closed by conventional means. The seal of the bag may be enhanced by coating the inner walls at the sealing area with vegetable oil, butter, or margerine.
It should be understood that the above described arrangements are merely illustrative of the principles of this invention. Modification can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

Somali suicide bomber from Minneapolis: "Do Jihad in America"
A suicide bomber who blew himself up in Mogadishu yesterday in an attack that killed 10 had traveled to Somalia from Minneapolis in 2008.
Abdisalan Ali had emigrated to Minnesota with his family when he was 2 years old, but was among 20 local youths who returned to the war-torn land to fight in its civil war back in 2008. He is the fourth American to kill himself in a suicide attack in Somalia.
In a clip posted by an Al-Qaida-linked militant group on Somalimemo.net today, the man alleged to be Ali urges fellow Muslims to conduct attacks in Western countries.
"My brothers and sisters, do Jihad in America, do Jihad in Canada, do Jihad in England, anywhere in Europe, in Asia, in Africa, in China, in Australia," the suicide bomber urges.
Omar Jamal, a spokesman for the Somali community in Minnesota, claimed that several people who knew Ali when he lived here recognized his voice.
Later in the tape, Ali mixes American slang into his rambling call to arms.
"Don't just sit around and be a couch potato and just chill all day," Ali stammers. "It will not benefit yourself, or the Muslims."
Ali is not the first Somali suicide bomber with ties to Minnesota. In June, the FBI confirmed that Farah Mohamed Beledi of St. Paul was one of two men who died in a Mogadishu suicide attack.
Beledi was one of 13 Twin Cities men indicted on terrorism charges in July 2010, as part of the ongoing probe into how young Somali men from the cities are being recruited to fight for al-Shabaab.
Additionally, Al-Shabaab claimed that Abdullahi Ahmed, a 25-year-old Minnesotan, blew himself up with a car bomb in Mogadishu.
In 2009, U.S. Special Forces killed Salah Ali Nabhan, who was suspected of being a senior instructor for new al-Shabab recruits, which brought in young Somali-Americans from Minneapolis to join their fight in Somalia.
Here is how Ali was described in a New York Times report about the missing Somali men:
Abdisalan Ali was only a few months old when his family escaped Somalia in a makeshift wooden boat, seeking refuge at a Kenyan refugee camp, his mother said in an interview. One of 12 children, he arrived in Seattle in 2000 and later settled in northeast Minneapolis. At Edison High School, he sold sneakers from his locker to help support his family. Stocky from lifting weights, he answered to the nickname Bullethead. Mr. Ali was elected president of the Somali Student Association at Edison and later, was a caseworker at the law firm Briggs & Morgan. "He was a highly motivated kid," recalled his former mentor, adding that Mr. Ali "wanted to change lives." With dreams of becoming a doctor, Mr. Ali pursued a pre-med track at the University of Minnesota, majoring in chemical engineering. One night in 2008, after meeting with his mentor to discuss the MCATs, he was wrongly accused of robbing a Subway on campus. The incident left him bruised long after the charges were dropped, friends said. He left for Somalia on Nov. 3, according to a travel itinerary, and has continued to communicate with friends in Minneapolis by phone and on Facebook.

OLYMPIA — Washington lawmakers moved swiftly Saturday to extend aerospace tax breaks in a bid to satisfy Boeing Co. and win the manufacturing work that will come with the company's new 777X production.
The Legislature gave final approval to extend the tax incentives — worth a total projected value of $9 billion — all the way to 2040. Lawmakers then adjourned their three-day session without taking up a transportation package that Gov. Jay Inslee had sought.
Legislators from both parties touted the importance of the Boeing jobs, especially for the long-term. Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom, a Democrat who leads a largely Republican caucus, said the company has had an enormous impact on the state over the years and said the bill was a way to make sure it continues.
"It's an incredible opportunity that we can keep this going for the next generation," Tom said.
Even though the tax breaks weren't set to expire for several more years, Inslee called the Legislature back to Olympia this week for a special session dedicated to the Boeing bills. Along with the tax package, lawmakers voted to spend millions of dollars on worker-training programs and an effort to aid permitting for large aerospace manufacturing sites.
Inslee said the bills were necessary in order to win the manufacturing work that will come with Boeing's new 777X production. He praised the bipartisan work that went into the package and said the deal will reverse the outflow of aerospace jobs from the state.
"This is an unprecedented guarantee that multiple generations of aircraft will be built here right here in the state of Washington," Inslee said.
Democratic Sen. Bob Hasegawa was one of the two senators to oppose the bill, expressing a variety of concerns. He was concerned that the bill didn't provide enough protections and that Boeing could use the 777X work to supplant work being done on the 787.
Hasegawa also expressed concern that the Legislature was essentially pressing union workers to accept a contract that may not be beneficial to them. He was also concerned that lawmakers would approve such a large tax break after considering the issue for just a couple days.
"We haven't, I don't think, fully thought out the uses of that $9 billion," Hasegawa said.
Boeing has proposed a lengthy contract with the Machinists union and says the deal is necessary to secure the company's 777X commitment to the region. In neighboring Oregon, some 1,200 machinists who work at Boeing's Gresham facility and the network of Boeing suppliers across the Portland area could have been impacted, The Oregonian reported.
Several Republicans expressed concern during debate Saturday that lawmakers would rush to aid Boeing but wouldn't provide tax or permitting benefits to other industries or businesses. Republican Rep. Joel Kretz said his district has very little aerospace business, and he said some businesses in his area spend years trying to get permits for work.
"We've got to fix it all over the state," Kretz said.
Separately, Inslee had sought a $10 billion transportation package as part of the Boeing bills, although some lawmakers say that measure can be passed at a later date. Democratic Sen. Tracey Eide, a leader on transportation matters, said she hoped lawmakers could have an agreement on the package soon and be able to approve it at some point this month.
"We're very close," Eide said.

Secrets of Success
If We Look For Trouble We Are Sure To Find It
Thursday, February 16, 2012
Working through my Spark points this morning, I got to the points I could earn for commenting on a blog entry, so I moseyed on over there to see who was writing what. I haven't found anything on which to comment yet, but I did find inspiration for my own blog. Why?
So many of the entries were full of such negative energy! "Today's a really bad day." "I'm so disappointed." "I wanted it to be better." "I'm having such a hard time."
A very wise man once told me that life is full of challenges. It's not going to be easy, and when we realize that we are going to be challenged, we are going to have days that don't go smoothly, we are going to face disappointments, then it all becomes easy. Disappointments are a a part of life, but they don't have to be catastrophes.
That same wise man always taught me to touch lightly then let go. Touch lightly of the joys, so that we don't immerse ourselves in them too deeply, and feel desolate when they have become just memories. Touch lightly of the sorrows, and know that this too will pass. Touch lightly of the Earth, that we can respect her and let her nourish us. Touch lightly of people, and appreciate them while giving them their own space, so that we can compliment, rather than control, each other.
Touching lightly, and accepting disappointment, is also part of the road to success. We may have wanted the scales to show more than a half pound loss, but it is going down and not up. Rather than be disappointed and feel like a failure, we need to review where we could do better, and see this as a learning curve, not a catastrophe. Yes, we ate the 'forbidden food,' but so what. Not only are we having a human experience, but we're always only one bite away from getting back on track.
Too many of us seem to think that our lives are supposed to be perfect, and that there is something wrong when they are not. This kind of thinking is going to draw failure into our lives quicker than anything else I know. Focus on scarcity and longing, and draw scarcity and longing close. Focus on happiness and abundance, and draw happiness and abundance close. This is not magic, there is nothing miraculous about it; it's just plain physics!
It is by accepting that disappointments are part of life, but they are not ALL of life, that we move forward with grace and joy towards our fulfillment. We can always rejoice that a thorn bush has roses. There is a triumph in all situations. We just have to look for it, rather than the trouble that is the illusion in front of us.

My Medicine Elder once told me never to try to understand the world or the people in it, because I simply wouldn't be able to do so. I think he was right.

I agree. I get tired, sometimes, of reading nothing but complaints. I also recognize, though, that it's impossible to be upbeat and motivated all the time, and when you aren't, it can be helpful to come to a place like this to vent and ask for support.
Just be mindful. :-)

Staff Report
FRANKFORT, Ky.– The Kentucky Public Service Commission will hold public meetings later this month in Louisville and Lexington to receive public comments on environmental compliance plans and associated environmental surcharge requests submitted by Kentucky Utilities Co. and Louisville Gas & Electric Co.
Last week, state tourism leaders unveiled the latest annual study on the positive impact this industry has in Kentucky. In a word, the news was good.
Overall, tourism generated nearly $14 billion in direct and indirect sales in 2015, a five percent increase over 2014's total. It supported 186,000 jobs and provided nearly $1.5 billion in state and local tax revenue.
Bedford resident Hunter Consley was recognized among 55 Scholars of the College by Western Kentucky University during Saturday's undergraduate ceremonies of its 179th Commencement.
The Scholar of the College is the baccalaureate degree student in each undergraduate college with the highest cumulative overall grade point average and a minimum of 60 semester hours earned in residence.
When my oldest daughter was 4 or 5 we were riding with my mom and Alison blurted out, "Grandma, want to know a family secret?"
I sat in the passenger seat frozen, not sure what my daughter was about to say.
"It's like Dad wearing Mom's underwear," Alison said.
It was one of those moments when you feel obligated to explain, but you sure as heck don't want to because no matter what you say your mom will still think you're an imbecile -- or worse.

Art Attack
Art Attack
A Brief Cultural History of the Avant-Garde
Clarion Books, Hardcover, 9780395797297, 192pp.
Publication Date: April 1, 1998
In the army, the advance guard is the first wave of soldiers who rush into enemy territory, risking their lives to map out the terrain. In the arts, the avant-garde consists of people who have devoted their talents, even their lives, to seeing the future and to confronting others with their visions. This intriguing introduction to modern art examines the avant-garde from its nineteenth-century origins in Paris to its meaning and influence today. It presents the visionaries who took the greatest risks, who saw the furthest, and who made the most challenging art-art that changed how we imagine our world. From cubism to pop art and beyond, this is the story not only of those risk takers, but of their creations and of the times in which they lived. Notes, bibliography, index.
Marc Aronson is the award-winning author of a wide variety of nonfiction works for younger readers, including Sir Walter Ralegh and the Quest for El Dorado, which received the first Robert F. Sibert Informational Book Award. He edits and publishes young adult fiction in a special arrangement with Candlewick and lives with his wife and two sons in Maplewood, New Jersey.

(please excuse me if I posted this in the wrong place previously-thanks)
I have a home that was built 5 years ago and have owned it for the last 2 years. All was fine till the the end of last season, when moisture problems developed after a period of prolonged rain.
Basement problem: Water leaked into the basement from where the foundation meets the frame - I saw this leaking as it occured and put plastic outside against the house where the foundation meets the frame to stop the water from pouring in from outside. This stopped the leaking, so it is appearing to me that the area where the water came through between the frame and foundation, just needed some kind of seal applied from the outside.
I had 2 water proofing companies come out to do estimates and got 2 conflicting opinions.
The first company offered to seal where the frame and foundation area meet - (just in front of the house which is where the water was observed coming in) - with an expoxy to stop water from coming in from outside. However, they also wanted to seal the weep holes that are in line with the frame and foundation. It did not sound correct to have the weep holes sealed, so I called another company to provide a second opinion.
The second company told me they did not do work above the ground line and since the frame and foundation of my house meet above the ground line (the landscaping is not built up over where these things join) they could not help. In addition, they believed the water was not coming from where I saw it enter in the basement. They guessed the exterior brick of the house was saturating and that I should try to test this by putting a hose at the front of the house and seeing if I could somehow get the bricks to leak into the basement.
So far, I am still just leaving the plastic in front of the house leaning against the area where the frame and foundation meet to prevent leaking if it rains.
It would help me to have an idea of how the leakage problem described here would generally be corrected. Also, it would really help me out if anyone knew what kind of contractor would be able to determine if house brick was properly sealed. Thank you for any help you can supply.

Robina's Group
Robina lives with her brother and cousin, who have a scrap business. They take orders from different factories and other scrap dealers and complete them to earn profits.
Robina also does her responsibilities by staying at home. She is a very responsible person and tries to give comfort to her brother, cousin and children by cooking food and cleaning the home.
She has applied for a loan from Kiva partner, Asasah, for her brother's business. With the loan, he will buy scrap, like used papers, plastic bottles and iron, in larger quantity. That should enable him to complete the orders on time and to earn bigger profits.
Robina is a regular loan user of Asasah, and this is her 3rd loan application. In previous loan years, she has maintained a good credit behavior and never missed any meeting.
Note: "In the photo, the lady with a raised hand is Robina".
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.59 lbs (0.27 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

this is simply amazing. mix some with cocoa powder in some greek yogurt/cottage cheese, add stevia and it taste like a peanut butter cup cheesecake.. but extremely healthy. i am in love. ;)
This is a fantastic alternative if you love your peanut butter but don't want the extra fat and calories. I love adding this to things like yoghurt so it tastes extra yummy! Great taste and great protein content, but is also quite high in price. For something similar without the added sugar and salt, you can try the less expensive Protein Plus Peanut Flour which is equally as good.
It's not like the real deal but it's great.

As I said before, it's not like the real deal, not as creamy, a little flavorless, but it works great in sandwiches and toasts.
Me chifla / Great taste and a lot less fat

Mi chico me da mucha envidia tomando manteca de cacahuete cada vez que quiere sin engordar un gramo, yo intentaba no tomarla para no pasarme con las grasas, pero ¡¡ahora ya puedo!! Me encanta en el porridge de avena o en batidos con frutas dulces. No more envying my partner's ability to eat peanut butter at any time and not putting on an ounce, now i can have that same taste and no guilt, i love it over my oat porridge or added to sweat fruits smoothies.
Great for smoothies and shakes

I used this to make peanut butter flavoured shakes and loved the taste!
Not the same, but worth a try

As an avid peanut butter lover, the idea of a healthy comparable option was exciting. Long story short, no it's not just like peanut butter, but on the other hand if you need to just add some peanut flavour to smoothies, or stirfry's this will be great for you!

Está muy bien de sabor y además puedes mezclarlo con la cantidad de agua que te apetezca para que quede más espeso o más líquido. Muy recomendable.

Quiet bats and errors in the field would do in TAMIU during their doubleheader with Oklahoma Christian on Friday. Jeremy Gonzalez would go all seven innings of game number one giving up four runs but only two of them earned. He would also strikeout ten batters but it wasn't enough as TAMIU could only scratch across one run. Game two wouldn't go any better after the Dustdevils jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead, the Eagles rattled off six unanswered runs to take control of the contest. TAMIU will look to get one of the three games as the series concludes tomorrow at Noon.

Hi, I just set the software up and its pretty good. I have a team of engineers who will be blogging on the site each as a different user. I'd like to have an aggragate blog with all entries/posts and quick links on the main page to look at all posts by user. I can do this if I create a category per each user, but that means all of my users must be good about choosing the category.
Is it possible to do this? I looked for themes that implemented this and through the PHP for a creator filter tag but found none.
If someone could point me to the right place to look, I'd be much obliged...
