To create menus better option is you have to use NeroVision Express, which is a provided with a full version of Nero but the creation of menus for DVD in Nero Vision does not pose particular problems.
It is possible with Nero Vision, in my version (part of Nero 6), i can save the DVD files in a folder, ie on the hard disk. Can then be rewritten these files later with the option Burning DVD files to Nero, the day you have a burner. But I have a problem because the software generates artifacts in the video damage. i can still operate the menu by opening the DVD folder by giving the path in playback software such as Media Player Classic.
Nero in the creation of menus (authoring) is relatively simple, it does not have access to all function in more advanced software such as Pinnacle or Ulead.
Nero that allows you to customize, in fact they are not buttons but Frames thumbnails.
buttons Nero Vision:
- Open the program
- Choose to create a DVD
- Import your (your) film
- Next, then double click on the menu: it switches to edit mode
- To choose the right buttons: the list appears
We will first see the buttons in the program.
This gives an idea because we will leave these buttons to create new ones.
- Open Windows Explorer
- Go to the menu nero C: \ Program Files \ Nero \ Nero 7 \ Nero Vision \ Buttons
images are. png
Size: no size limit, but of course the menu screen is limited to 720x576 you need to create buttons that can be placed side by side.
The smallest is 200 pixels wide and the largest is 300 pixels, so it should be in the same dimensions
The red represents the transparent part between the edges and the ground, instead they see the screen menu. The green represents the transparent part of the reason that will see the picture or video associated with the button.
- Take the magic wand and click in the green box to select
- Ctrl + Shift + I to invert selection
- Create a new layer
- Ctrl + Backspace to fill with white and deselect (Ctrl + D)
We now have the framework on a new layer:
You can customize this stage the framework, either by filling it with a color, a gradient, a pattern. Or an option to merge.
- Ctrl + click on the layer of the framework, to select
- At the bottom of the Layers palette click the Create a layer and choose Gradient Fill
Instead of just a simple flat circle (color, gradient or pattern), with the options of merger can give volume (relief) to our button.
- After creating the frame on another layer just choose Layer / style vamp / merger options.
- First, check that you have complied with the sizes and colors imposed (red and green) then
- Flatten the layer (at the bottom of the Layers menu)
- Use the "Save As" then choose the format. Png
to avoid modifying the original files!
Give a different name for your button.
If you have not saved the buttons in the same folder as the original, they must be placed in:
Reminder of the path:
C: \ Program Files \ Nero \ Nero 7 \ Nero Vision \ Buttons
I tryed several programs to create my own menu's in the main menu i want a link to each seperate eps.
Tryed the following programs:
- NeroVision Express
- DVD lab
- DVD Slideshow Builder
- Unlead DVD Workshop
- Nero didn't life up to my expectations, can't creat any menu you want only the one's you can select from the tamplates.
- DVD lab looks a profesional tool, but wasn't even abaile to import .avi files so didn't go on with that one.
- DVD Slideshow Builder,easy to use with professional features and same sort of layout as Movie Maker however a lot more powerful.Both static and motion DVD menu templates are available.
- Unlead DVD Workshop looked prommising almost finished my menu, cut change almost everything including place of the links to the eps. But the disapointing thing is it wants te re-encode the eps and needs alot of diskspace (40GB+) don't know why but that's just crazy. Well DVD Workshop looked most promising good features and almost everything could be edited in the menu's.

Ever Wonder if You Could Kill What You Eat?
Sunday, August 30, 2009
This article caught my eye because I have asked myself this question and I know my answer: "No way!"
However that doesn't mean I can't recognize and feel some twinges regarding the hypocracy of eating meat but not being able to kill animals to support my habit. Which always has me thinking about making a vegetarian switch at some point.
This is a VERY interesting article which will get you thinking about your approach to the food you consume.
Ever Wonder if You Could Kill What You Eat? We Did the Other Night
"Were we traumatized? Did we feel sorry for the chicken? Are we dreading this weekend, where we'll have to kill 150 more? Here's why not."

When I was a little kid, maybe around 6, I remember my mom making my lunch. She was at the stove, her back to me, while I dug into my lunch. When I reached the hamburger patty, something made me hesitate. It's a voice I later learned to recognize as my higher power, so to speak, or God. I asked her what it was made from, and I could tell she was avoiding answering me. So, I asked outright if it was made from an animal. That was the beginning of the end of any form of meat for me, given my innate resonance with animals. Now, I gave my own daughter the freedom to eat what she wants, and she eats meat. She told me once, though, that if she had to be the one to kill, she wouldn't. My husband also eats meat, although even when I met him, he never cooked it at home. I appreciate that you posted this.

I don't want to kill what I eat, but it doesn't bother me that someone else does it.

I don't know. I'd like to say that I COULD kill what I eat. I've certainly shot my fair share of various handguns and rifles. I think that killing for eating is more noble than simply for sport. I've gone fishing as a child and didn't have any problem with catching the fish that would be killed.
Even if I couldn't do it, I wouldn't feel guilty for eating animals that others have killed for me (grocery store packaged foods). I also wouldn't be able to be a miner for the metals and minerals that are used to build the circuitry and make up the components on my laptop. I don't feel guilty using it. :)
And killing an animal is the same as killing a plant in my book. As a child I read "The Secret Life of Plants". I believe that both animals and plants have emotions. At the very least they share the essence of life. How is farming either of them very different? Just because it's more difficult to communicate with a plant doesn't mean that it's life is less valuable.
So eat your meat in good health!

Having been raised in the country and on farms - yes I can. But, that said, when we hunt or raise an animal to butcher we know how, why and when. It is truly and enlightening experience and makes you far less wasteful of things. Good question!!

I've often thought about this very discussion. Much to my dismay....it makes me realize I'm a hypocrite. I could never, ever kill an animal -- I'm even starting to have trouble killing insects and stuff. But here's the thing... I've tried giving up meat and I just can't do it. /sighs.

Back in the day, the 70's, when starving in the mountains [never mind how we got there] I was the one of 5 of us who drew a bead on the deer and downed him. About 300 yards and my first rifle shot. A natural, I guess. I also helped hang him, and I was the one who gutted him. I did not butcher him, that was another person's project, but we ate that buck for over a month. And that is all we had to eat. So I have to say, been there, done that. And under the same circumstances I would do it again in a minute. At grocery stores, I only buy non-hormonal yadda yadda good stuff, and eat meat rarely. But hells bells, in a pinch, that's what the animals are there for. I think even the Bible says so.... I cannot apologize more than that. My dau is 41 and a vegetarian since just about after the deer :)

I have wondered it, but ever since getting my hunting license about 10 years ago when I moved to NY, I know the answer.
And before I actually pulled the trigger on that first button buck, I really wasn't sure if I would do it, 'cuz I was raised in the SF Bay Area which is urban and liberal.
In the end I decided that if I *didn't* have it in me to kill and dress and butcher my own meat then I didn't have any business paying other people to do it for me, and I should become vegetarian.
I'm still an omnivore.

Of course, we cut vegetables off the stems or pick the fruit-frequently killing the plant!
Oh, when will the insanity stop!

This review is from: Samsung NP900X4D 15" LED Ultrabook - Intel Core i7 i7-3667U 2 GHz - Silver
Pros: I use this laptop for work, which includes general software development. It is thin, light, quiet, and has a very reasonable battery life, about 5 to 7 hours depending on what I'm doing.
Cons: The biggest issue for me is the small solid state disk drive. I replaced the stock 128GB drive with a 512GB drive. However, I'd be most happy if the manufacturer could include 2 internal solid state drive connectors so that I could install 2 drives for a total of 1TB disk space.

Thread: Is Magnolia too much?
March 1st, 2014 09:29 AM #16
I love the name Magnolia, I think it has a lot of charm and beauty. I think it's and underused gem, I think this name is perfect for a child to wear, and the nickname Maggie makes the name more assessable.
However I don't like Camella, it makes me think of Princess Camilla -- which is a bad association in my book. I prefer Camille, it's French and sounds more sophisticated and feminine than Camella.
Magnolia and Camille are great names in my opinion.

Maggie makes Magnolia much for accessible. Now on to my second choice Camellia, and I agree it's just too much. Maybe Linnaea but then again, our last name is Long so maybe that's too much L. Why can't babies just come out with names already? LOL
Thank you for replying.Mom to Isaiah to Zachariah

Context and aims Internationally, the repertoire of alcohol pricing policies has expanded to include targeted taxation, inflation-linked taxation, taxation based on alcohol-by-volume (ABV), minimum pricing policies (general or targeted), bans of below-cost selling and restricting price-based promotions. Policy makers clearly need to consider how options compare in reducing harms at the population level, but are also required to demonstrate proportionality of their actions, which necessitates a detailed understanding of policy effects on different population subgroups. This paper presents selected findings from a policy appraisal for the UK government and discusses the importance of accounting for population heterogeneity in such analyses.
Method We have built a causal, deterministic, epidemiological model which takes account of differential preferences by population subgroups defined by age, gender and level of drinking (moderate, hazardous, harmful). We consider purchasing preferences in terms of the types and volumes of alcoholic beverages, prices paid and the balance between bars, clubs and restaurants as opposed to supermarkets and off-licenses.
Results Age, sex and level of drinking fundamentally affect beverage preferences, drinking location, prices paid, price sensitivity and tendency to substitute for other beverage types. Pricing policies vary in their impact on different product types, price points and venues, thus having distinctly different effects on subgroups. Because population subgroups also have substantially different risk profiles for harms, policies are differentially effective in reducing health, crime, work-place absence and unemployment harms.
Conclusion Policy appraisals must account for population heterogeneity and complexity if resulting interventions are to be well considered, proportionate, effective and cost-effective.

Greyhound Friend's Fall Open House- 2014September 22nd 2014 5:39 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
I had another fun day today. We went to Greyhound Friend's Fall Open House. As usual we worked at the Silent Auction and Raffle table. Dady set my exercise pen for em. At first the humans who predict what the weather is going to be said it was going to be a nice weekend. Then at the last minute they decided to make it rain! Mom and dad were setting up the silent auction table when all of a sudden it started to pour! I got wet! Mom and dad were trying to save some of the items from getting ruined. A couple of the framed prints did get water damage. It happened so fast that mom and dad couldn't get everything in time. Later the sun did come back out for a bit. We didn't get more rain, but it did stay mostly cloudy. I still had fun. My brother Padfoot came. Do did Robin, Gill and Skylar. I enjoyed socializing. We didn't get as big a turn out as we had hoped but it still went well. I wore my new costume in the costume contest. I was a "MUTTical DOGter!!! BOL!!! I was surprised that I was the ONLY one in the contest. I won a toy, a blue ribbon and a milk bone. I am happy I won, but it would have been more fun competing against other dogs.
New England Pet ExpoSeptember 21st 2014 6:17 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
I went to the New England Pet Expo yesterday! What fun I had! I remembered it from last year and I got all excited as we pulled into the parking lot. We got there right when it opened so we didn't have to stay in line very long. I used that time to greet all the other dogs waiting with me. Mom had to drop off copies of my vaccination records and then we were allowed inside. We made sure we visited every booth. One booth had 2 greyhounds in an exercise pen and I made friends with them right away. Daddy had a hard time getting me to leave! We visited a few booths and then it was time for the first talk. It was about cat behavior. Mom and dad have had a slight issue with my cat brother, Ben. He sometimes marks doors in the house. The talk was very disappointing as the man talking really didn't have a clue about cat behavior. There was, however, a woman in the audience who was a cat behaviorist. She was able to help mom and dad. After the talk we went back to where we left off and continued to see all the booths. They had rescue groups, treat palaces, toys, collars, leashes- every thing you can imagine. It was all indoor too! I saw my brother, Fast. It is always nice seeing him. We went to a couple more talks later in the day. I got a "Pawdicure" that is a fancy way of saying I got my nails trimmed! Not the highlight of my day! I also got acupuncture! I never had that done before. It was very interesting! It didn't hurt at all. I was very relaxed. I looked like a porcupine when the doctor was finished! She worked on my back, hind legs, kidneys and gall bladder. I would do it again! On our way our daddy bought me a special cup cake! It was such a fun day!
Visiting GrandmaSeptember 9th 2014 7:11 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
Daddy took yesterday off of work. He has a lot of vacations days left and needs to use them up by the end of the year.He thought it would be nice to take a 4 day weekend for his birthday. We went to visit grandma in the afternoon. She is going to be in the rehab place for a while longer. I like going there now.I still don't like the "room that moves", but I will get into it now without any trouble. It never hurts me but I still don't entirely trust it.We had a nice visit.Grandma gave me some of her hamburger. That was yummy.One of the nurses was afraid of me! Can you imagine anyone being afraid of ME?! daddy had to take me out into the hallway so she could come into the room.She told mom that she had been attacked by 5 dogs when she was young. On the way home I had a slight accident, Daddy had to put on the breaks and I slid off the backseat and got stuck in between the back seat and the front seat. daddy pulled over.I was able to get back up. We stopped at a farm stand and mom took me out to make sure I was OK.I got all tangled up in the seat belt! It just wasn't me day!! Thankfully I am fine. To make it up to me mom and dad stopped off at the dog park. There was only one dog there and I didn't feel much like playing so we went home.
Pet Rock FestivalSeptember 7th 2014 5:44 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
It was another fun day today. We went to the Pet Rock Festival. It is a pet fair that has rock and roll bands playing music.This year it was in a different location so we had to drive a bit further. It was in a place called Sturbridge. It was a bit confusing at first because everything was divided into 2 locations on opposite ends of the parking lot. The workers doing the admissions told mom that the Greyhound Friend's booth was on the other side. We got i for free because we worked at the booth for a couple of hours. Mom and dad started looking at few booths until we found ours. Worlds Best Litter was hosting the festival this year. Mom and dad buy that litter for Ben and Charlie. Mom says it really is the best cat litter in the world. To get a coupon for a free bag mom and dad had to pretend to be cats and go through an obstacle course. They had to play with cat toys, go through a litter box (A big fake one) walk a balance bean and play with a big ball through a set of cones. Mom really hammed it up. They said mom was the best "Cat" there. Someone recorded it. I went through with daddy. We all had to wear cat ears including me! After that we found Greyhound Friend's booth and worked there for about 2 hours. We met a lot of nice people and dogs. Mom gave everyone information and invited them to the open house which is a couple of weeks. I let a lot of people pet me, including some kids. I did a good job. There was band playing music near by and they were very good. Mom was getting hungry so daddy went and got food. By the time mom and dad finished, my brother, Fast, and his mom and dad came to take over. We got to walk all around the fair and see all the different booths. It was fun. It wasn't as hot as yesterday so it was quite pleasant. I did get to go into the lake for a few minutes and really enjoyed that. They had a booth there that was donating money to help an animal in need of emergency medical care. You could vote for which ever animal you wanted to. Mom finds it hard because they ALL deserve to be helped. There was cat there that needed surgery to remove a foreign object. The cat looked like my brother, Ben. Mom and dad both voted for him. It was a wonderful day but we were all tired. I know I was! It was daddy's birthday today too! Now he is as old as mom- at least for the next 6 months!! BOL.
Fund Raising WalkSeptember 6th 2014 1:49 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
What a day! We just got home from Greyhound Rescue Of New England's Fund raising walk. Am I tired!! It was SO hot today. We stayed in the shade as much as we could and the walk was cut short for safety reasons. One elderly dog over heated and collapsed! She was rushed to the vets. She had a temperature of 105 degrees! Thankfully it looks like she will be OK. She was responding to IV fluids. They decided not to do the costume contest or doggy games due to the heat. I went into the river 4 times to cool down. I went up to my belly in the river. Mom made sure I drank a lot of water and she also would pour water on my back. I saw a lot of my friends today- Gill, Skylar, and Mr. Spock were all there! I won 2 things in the raffle!! Mom always puts my name on the tickets as I am lucky. One was a Cindy comfort Blanket and toy and the other prize was a Grammies Jammies ,a toy and some dog treats!! Cindy Maxwell's mom makes the Cindy's Comfort Blanket and told mom she could exchange the blanket for one that was made with me in mind!!!! As Cindy's mom was making it ,she said "This belongs to Isis" and Cindy's dad agreed! Then mom found out that we were the 3rd biggest fund raiser of the day! We got a really cool gift basket!!! I got a skeleton Halloween toy and a new collar in the basket! Lots of other nice things things too! Time for a nap!
Weston Dog ParkSeptember 2nd 2014 7:20 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
I had a lot of fun yesterday. It was Labor Day so daddy had the day off work and mom didn't have any clients. Mom and dad took me to the off leash park in Weston, MA. It is so much fun. You have to stay on your leash past the baseball field, until you reach the bridge. Then you can go off leash. There are wooded trails and ponds and then you get to two huge open fields. I like have the freedom to be off my leash. I stay very close to mom and dad though. I never let them out of my sight. I met some very nice dogs. It was a bit hot to play though. I even went into the pond to cool off my paw pads. I didn't swim, just stayed near the edge. We walked for about 30 minutes. That was enough because it was hot out. After the park we went to visit grandma. She saved me some of her beef sandwich. That was very yummy. We went out onto the patio to visit. It is much nicer than staying in her room and she can get some fresh air. We sat in the shade and daddy brought me blanket to lay on. A nice lady who works at the rehab place brought mom and grandma some ice water and she even brought a bowl of water for me! It was so refreshing. I drank it all! Grandma sees her doctor today. I hope she can go home soon.

My grandma fell a couple of weeks ago and fractured her leg and pelvis. Thankfully she didn't require surgery. They moved her into a rehabilitation hospital this past week. Grandma checked and learned that dogs were allowed. So I went to visit grandma today at the rehab hospital. It was a very nice place. I did have to go into a room that moved. I didn't like that part. Mom calls it an "elevator" but I don't quite understand that. I don't go up or anything. All I know is that the door closes and the floor has a strange sensation in it. Then the door opens and you are in a whole different place from where you started.Grandma is doing so well. She was walking all over the place with a walker. She does have pain in her hip but she is doing well. We got to go onto an outside patio and sit. It was such a nice day. We were the only ones outside at first so daddy tied my leash to my harness so I could walk around where I wanted to. Someone else came out after a bit so I had to go back on leash. That was OK, I just laid down and took a little nap. I got to play therapy dog to a few other patients. Lots of people liked me. After the visit mom and dad took me to the dog park. My friend, Bella, was there. It was fun. Lots of dogs came and they were running and playing. It started getting a little rough as a lot of big dogs came, so it was time to leave. Bella and her mom left with us. Bella is a little dog and she was afraid of the big dogs running around. I was ready to go home anyway. It was another fun day.

Rosco went home last night. I was a bit sad. We really had a fun week together. It was fun having someone to run with. We had lots of great zoomies around the yard. We also started digging a hole together. We made it very deep. Mom wasn't too happy when we tried to come in the house with muddy paws. I am used to having my paws cleaned, but Rosco didn't know what to make of it. Mom made him go back to the yard and walk in the grass to clean his paws. Mom didn't want all that dirt in the house.
Meet and GreetAugust 16th 2014 7:50 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
My friend, Rosco is staying with us for a few days. He is a really goof friend. Yesterday daddy took us to the new dog park in our town. There were a lot of dogs there. We had fun. The ground there is wooded with a lot of wood chips. My corn has been bothering me, so I didn't run. I still had fun walking around and exploring. Today we went to a Meet and Greet in Westford for Greyhound Friends. My other good friends Thor, Teddy and Ripley were there too, along with their mom and dad. Rosco was a social butterfly. I was lazy and layed on a bed in the back of the table. Several people came around to pet me and say "HI". 4 kids came over to me and they were all petting me! I did very well. They had calm energy so I was fine with it. After the meet and greet we got to go to the dog park again. Not as many dogs this time, but we still had a lot of fun.

Hi y'all!
It's been a while since I dropped in. As some of you may remember, I lost my Mum to CC about 20 months ago, April 2007. This forum was a lifeline to me during Mum's illness, and in the aftermath of grief.
I just wanted to wish all of you a Happy New Year! I am so glad to see how this forum has grown, and so glad to see some of you are still alive and KICKING!!
I just wanted to let you all know that whilst I rarely drop by now, I still think of you all, and wish you all well, patients and families alike. This board is such a kind and human place, so full of love, it is a treasure.
I wish all of you the very very best for 2009, and want you to know that my heart is still with you all, and even if I am not visiting much, I shall never ever forget the kindness and friendship I experienced through this forum.
Huge HUGE hugs and soppy kisses to you all!

Re: how do you know its the end? (14 replies, posted in Supportive, Palliative & Hospice Care)
Hi Susan,
So sorry to hear what's going on for you.
I don't know if you have similar stuff in US, but here you can get Macmillan Cancer nurses to help out at home. Is there something similar for you I wonder?
Hospice seems such a big decision to make, but having been there myself, it was such a relief, because I know I couldn't have given my Mum the level of care that was available there. I spent a lot of time there in her final week (she was only in there 10 days before she died), and the practical stuff you speak of (like going to the toilet) was quite hard as she too was weak, but I could always call for help if I needed it, which was such a blessing.
It is so hard to know what to do. I really wanted my Mum to be at home here with me and my family, but realistically, she needed more care than I could give.
Have you spoken to your Mum about it? How does she feel about going into a hospice?
I would say that a visiting nurse would be a good place to start, because they will be able to assess her needs and advise you.
Oh love, sorry you are having a hard time, and hope that you will be able to get some help, as it is a lot to be doing alone. It seems like a hard decision to make, because no doubt you really feel that you would like to do all you can for as long as possible. But extra help will give you a bit of a break, which I think you will really appreciate. I remember just feeling so grateful that the burden was not all on my shoulders. It's hard to pass on some of the burden, as it make you feel like you aren't "doing enough", but as a carer, you need to have break from it all sometimes, even if it's just an hour, as it makes it so much easier to do what you are able to do/want to do, witthout so much pressure. Hope that makes sense.
Take care, and look after yourself.
Much love X

Re: Babblings of a grieving person (23 replies, posted in Grief Management)
Hello everyone, Betty, Patrice, Charlene Teresa and Joyce,
Gosh, what a lot of different replies!
Charlene, it is still so fresh for you. It took me several months to recover from the horrible bits. I just kept reminding myself that in the bigger picture of Mum's life, the suffering at the end was a small blip compared to all that had gone before. It is so so painful to watch someone you love suffer. I hope that time will give you the healing you need.
Teresa, I cannot imagine for a moment how it feels to lose a child, oh my, I love my kids so much (like we all do) and the thought of out living them is one of the few things that scares me in life. To now be losing your husband TOO. Oh love, what can I say, I can only send you love and strength. My heart goes out to you.
Thanks for enjoying my Mum Patrice! I also know what it is to cry reading other people's stories.
Betty, life must be strange, losing your man, and now your job. Maybe you can find some voluntary work or something? I hereby award you the official Yard of the Month cup!!
And lovely Joyce, I know how hard losing your Mum hit you, and hope that life is slowly getting better for you! If I ever ever come to New York again in my life I will be looking you up for sure!
This site is another place that always reminds me of the kindness of strangers! With conditions like CC, status/country/nationality etc are rendered unimportant, and we are reminded that we are just people, families, helping to support eachother. Out of the ugliness of it all there is beauty too.
Much love to you all, those who have added to this thread, and all who come here.

Her name was Prue Corlett, Patrice! She wrote a book about her travels called These Vagabond Shoes! Still available on Amazon, but horribly expensive for some reason, considering it was never a best seller! Here are links to photos of her.
This one is of me and Mum shortly after she came out of hospital having had her resection in July 2007
This one is of Mum at her caravan on the Greek Island of Kefallonia
http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a279/ … I_2814.flv
This is the video that shows Mum at her eccentric best, with her animals! Never fails to make me smile!
Thanks for your kind words Jeff, and Patrice.
Jeff, Joyce and I have always vied to have the longest post ever on this site!! I'm pretty sure you are in the runner up bracket!!
You keep smiling too Jeff, and keep on enjoying your life!

Re: Babblings of a grieving person (23 replies, posted in Grief Management)
Well, a year has passed, officially tomorrow in fact, but a year ago last Friday night was when Mum finally left us.
On Friday I got out the letters she sent me over the years from her travels. I sat up till 3 am putting them in date order, and filing them! Then yesterday, it was raining, so I took my kids to town to a play centre, and whilst they were off frolicking, I sat down with a flask of tea, and began reading them! What a treat! I'm not even half way through, but it is so nice to read back on the last years of her life. She left UK in 1989, and wrote to me regularly from wherever she was (mostly Greece/Italy). What a woman! What an inspiration! Needless to say I still miss her, but I don't feel so bad now. My big black ball of sadness that I previously described is now a small pink smooth one, and no longer lodged in my stomach, it is now firmly planted in my heart! I just feel very very lucky that she was on this earth as long as she was. NOT LONG ENOUGH mind, but I am thankful for knowing her as long as I did.
I have sent her picture through to Faces of CC today, so hope she will appear there in the next few weeks.
Much love to you all. I don't visit here so often now, but I will always be grateful for all the support I was given from everyone, and most grateful that I found this site when I needed it, because I feel that with all that went on, it would have been so much less easy to bear without your support.
Lots and lots of love to you all

Re: First time here, mother passed at age 54 in 2006 (7 replies, posted in Grief Management)
Oh Liz, what a lovely read, even though it is sad. Just wanted to say hello, and thank you for coming here and sharing with us all. Your Mom sounds like she was a lovely lady. I'm glad you stuck by her advice and followed through with college. Well done! I am 43, my Mum died this time last year. Your post made me realize how lucky I was to have her around for such a large part of my life, it really struck me how young you are to have to deal with such a loss, the feeling of wishing your Mom could see how you've done, and all the things you won't be able to share with her. I hope for you that the pain of your loss will diminish in time, and I am sending you lots of love all the way from UK!
Much love, Kate

Re: Surgery unsuccessful :( (15 replies, posted in Surgery, Resection & Transplant Treatment Options)
Hey Lisa,
SO so sorry to hear your news. Haven't been by for a couple of weeks, and remembered you were having surgery, so was really sad to hear your news. I have to say, if I was in your position (which of course I'm not), I think I would go for another opinion, and sod the financial stuff. It's your life!! If someone MAY be able to help, you need to check it out I reckon!
I can't imagine the shock of going in for the op, and waking up to this news.
I'm sending you loads of love and hugs from UK!
Keep going, don't give up, coz........YOU'RE WORTH IT!

Re: Two years on (7 replies, posted in Grief Management)
Hi Patricia. I don't come by the site too often now, but pop in every couple of weeks for a nose, to see how everyone is doing.
I just wanted to say that I too have the same kind of feelings that you do. It is not quite a year since Mum died (21st April), but I often find myself wishing that I'd made more time for her when she was staying with us, wondering how I could have done more for her etc etc. Like you, I know it is not necessarily rational thinking, it comes from a place of sadness and pain.
Just wanted to say hi really, and to let you know that you are not alone. Much love xxx

As MU says, hopefully his age and fitness will be a defining factor in all this. I hope his treatment continues to go well, and let's hope the Mayo Clinic are able to offer you more.
Much love to you both.

Re: Babblings of a grieving person (23 replies, posted in Grief Management)
Joyce, what a lovely post! It was nice to hear more about your Mum!
If I had had my Mum around all the time, I think my loss would be harder to bear. Losing a loved one is the pits, whichever way you look at it. But I feel other peoples losses very much, because so many of you have had your loved ones around on a daily/weekly basis. I can only imagine what the loss of that regular contact must feel like. It must be absolutely devastating. My Mum moved to Greece about 18 years ago. I would see her every year, but it is not the same as sharing your life with a person, and having them die. It must leave such a gap in your life. Like Patricia with her husband, to name one of a few. And Jules who has spent the last 2 years battling this on a weekly basis with her dad. I do not mean to leave ANYONE out of this, each and everyones stories touch me deeply.
I guess I could be upset that I didn't have my Mum around for the last 18 years, but the thing is, she was doing what she wanted to do. When she first left, I used to feel angry at times that she wasn't around to help me with the nitty gritty parts of life, when I could have done with her being around. But, that passed, and I just felt proud of her, that she had followed her dreams. Funny thing is, even though she wasn't here physically for me, she was in later years (she was homeless, by choice for at least the 1st 9 of her years away), contactable by phone, when she eventually decided to get a mobile phone, and that was somehow enough. Her love and unconditional acceptance of my life, was always with me.
However, I digress. The point is, when you have a week by week existence with a loved one, their death must surely be harder to cope with. How could it NOT be?
I feel very keenly how much losing your Mum has affected you, and your everyday life.
Bloody annoying really! Yes, I also get the feelings about "TOO SOON! SHE SHOULD HAVE HAD MORE TIME!!!"
Grief does seem irrational sometimes. But is it what it is, ultimately. Grief.
Much love to you Joyce!

"Between the river Po and the Apennines" Top 5 Page for this destination Reggio Emilia by Manara
Reggio Emilia Travel Guide: 65 reviews and 87 photos
Reggio Emilia is the closest neighbour of my hometown, so it is not easy for me to see it from a tourist's point of view, because it is very much like home.
Anyway I hope that my few tips will help virtual tourists to get an idea of Reggio and encourage them to make a stop here if they happen to visit this part of Italy.

How interesting to read about the Ballet school. It has been announced this week that there is a "good chance" we will soon have a school in Abergavenny. I'm all for the development of the performing arts !
You are right, visiting the towns and cities of Emilia I feel like if I were visiting an area of my own city.
Have been to Venice (by coach) years ago passing thru Northern Italy and Roma from Queen Mary2 this year. Would like to come again. Thanks for tips. Marg
Always wanted to visit this part of Italy.(if I am not mistaken it is the area were ,,Don Camillo and Peppone``was filmed?)Would love to see more about this region!Thank you for showing!
Very nice tips about Reggio! I agree completely about Galleria Parmiggiani....

#LS11 #UCOMS #SuperBowl

 I'm still playing catch up from Lotusphere (maybe next weekend, after some of the adrenaline subsides I'll play "rest up") but I wanted to pop in here for a quick blog post. WOWWW. That was an amazingly insanely fantastic Lotusphere experience. Thanks to all of you!

I know I'm a Lotus Geek because I'm watching the Super Bowl tomorrow because Sametime is there! I'm a Dolphin Fan. They aren't there.

 For those of you that were not at Lotusphere that are loyal blog readers, Sametime has gone Social and is going to the Super Bowl The very beginning of the closing session was a demo of Sametime being utilized at the Superbowl for real time security communications. This is a clear example that Sametime or UCC is the "Action" in a Social Network.

Imagine the challenge of keeping over 100,000 people safe with a vast array of emergency teams ready to respond and take action at one of the most popular events of the year. You need a real time communications system to take action right now and reach the right person and get the right response.

This is a social network with real implications. Traditionally you have multiple agencies operating on different systems and on different radio frequencies. We bring these disparate systems together with a solution called Radio Connect from UnifiedEdge based on IBM Sametime Standard.

UnifiedEdge's RadioConnect for Sametime has been successfully deployed as a permanent technology component in the Joint Emergency Operations Center at the City of Fort Worth, Texas reaching tens of thousands of workers. And this Sunday - it is being used to bring together 60 different agencies on multiple radio frequencies in the most important game in American Football – the Super Bowl.

For more from Lotusphere on where we are headed, check out the Sametime at Lotusphere Podcast with Caleb Barlow, on LiveStream. And when I can find the stream video of the very opening of the closing, I'll post here as a response.

Anybody else see UConn's men's coach rip into the media?
"Are you really that stupid?"
I think sports salaries are ridiculous, but all the same he had a point. If the university is turning a profit on the b-ball dept?! He deserves to make what they will pay him, as long as it isn't "state" money and they are self-sufficient. Not much different than the Iowa/KF talk really.
What can a critic really say when it is not their money and they're profitable. I don't care much for Calhoun or UCONN, but I found his comments refreshing, though a tick boorish.

Plus the guy asking was some doofus who ran his own message board and probably shouldnt have even been there asking questions. Nice to see his attempt to create drama blew up in his face. He's a tool though so he probably feels vindicated because Calhoun blew a fuse.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains.
I liked the part where he lumped all the other reporters together as "scared" to ask about the topic and you could hear them all moaning about it. I bet he got beat up by the bike rack after the press conference.

Heard about it on the news this morning - as it turns out the idiot was actually a political activist with a personal agenda and not a real reporter. Jim Calhoun gained a fan with me on that one...

I'm behind Calhoun. Horribly timed personal question.
Here another way of looking at it that comes to the "reporters" defense. Just playing devils advocate.
College Basketball: Jim Calhoun's Annoying Interrogator Is Not Happy With That Annoying Answer
Calhoun did the right thing there. Temper or no temper. The guy was just trying to stir the pot without knowing all the facts. In a public setting after a game no less. It would have been more appropriate for the guy to have at least done more research beforehand.
Agree with the others here, if UConn basketball makes that much money and takes no money from the university then pay Calhoun whatever they think he is worth.

It's his money he can do whatever he wants with it. You shouldn't be punished for being successful. The reporter is obviously some crazed radical liberal who has no idea how to do his job. The reporter got what he deserved for being stupid.

I have a network with several computers all on the same network and since I have very limited bandwidth I would like to prioritize traffic almost like a CPU scheduler prioritize processes.
Example: Computer A: Used for webstuff: YouTube, downloads, news, emails etc. Computer B: Transferring files over HTTP Computer C: Transferring files over ftp, rsync whatever
What I would like to do is to give A up to for example 90% of the available bandwidth IF A requires it. The leftovers (10%) is divided between B and C (5% each if both is busy) If A is not utilizing all bandwidth then of course B and C should share the full bandwidth (50% each as long as both are maxing out their bandwidth).
All computers are on the same network (192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1-10 for example).
Appreciate if anyone could shed some light on how I should set up my network to achieve this. To be honest I actually need a step by step guide on how I should set this up.
Network setup: (ADSL modem configured in bridge mode (1500kbps/300kbps))
[ADSL modem (bridge)]<->[pfsense2.0]<->[switch]<->[Computer A,B,C...etc]

I am not addicted to sleeping pills however I do take them on occasion if I have a long span of not sleeping. Have you tried taking a supplement called Melatonin? It can help you sleep, there are also several teas that are out there that will help you sleep. In the U.S. We have one called SleepyTime tea. I've had insomnia since I was 11 & am now in my 30s. I know how frustrating it is not being able to sleep. Try more of the natural sleep aids & see if that works for you.

A Hundred Flowers: A Novel (2012)
by Gail Tsukiyama
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Story of the Chinese cultural revolution as told from the perspective of several members of a family- a young boy, his grandfather (a retired teacher); his mother (a herbalist called on by many people for her skills); his father (sent for retraining by the authorities) and a pregnant girl taken in by the family. Interesting version of China's history.
This was a great book to start the year off for our library book club. I have never read a book by Gail Tsukiyama. I am not that familiar with China's history either. I really enjoyed this book right from the start. I started reading the book but then borrowed the audio from Overdrive to finish the book in time for my book club meeting.
A Hundred Flowers is a novel with a wide variety of characters. You have Wei, Kai Ying, Tao, Song, Sheng, and Suyin. Kai Ying, Tao and Wei are dealing with Sheng being imprisoned for not believing in the new regime in China. Song is a neighbor who is like family. Suyin is a teenage girl who sees Kai Ying while at the hospital. She follows Kai Ying home one day from the market.
Suyin is pregnant and goes into labor while following Kai Ying. The bond that is formed between these characters is very heart warming. I will be looking for more books by Gail Tsukiyama.
I received this as a giveaway, and was excited to read it. I was highly disappointed. The description of the book sounded somewhat interesting. Maybe had the book been written in a different style, it may have been a good book. It took me forever to read, and I still cannot grasp the full point of the book. It was choppy. It jumps from character to character, and makes no sense when it does. It's more of a bunch of rambling about other characters and noncharacters. Maybe this just isn't my style of book. It could have been written much better in my opinion.
I listened to this book in audiobook format, read exceptionally well by Simon Vance.
It was an interesting story about a period in time and history I did not know much about. I wish there had been more actual history and more personal perspectives by the characters as the story unfolded. I enjoyed the story but found it slow. Glad I stuck with it and equally glad it is done now.
Joy's review: Well, one of our book group participants said it best for me: "it's as if Tsukiyama was trying to be poetic and didn't quite make it". This leave the book overly simplistic and flat. Story is tucked into Chinese history just after the Communist revolution and just before the Great Leap forward, yet there is no mention of the effects either WWII or the revolution or any foreshadowing of the Great Leap. Good book for middle school students.

A powerful new novel about an ordinary family facing extraordinary times at the start of the Chinese Cultural Revolution
China, 1957. Chairman Mao has declared a new openness in society: "Let a hundred flowers bloom; let a hundred schools of thought contend." Many intellectuals fear it is only a trick, and Kai Ying's husband, Sheng, a teacher, has promised not to jeopardize their safety or that of their young son, Tao. But one July morning, just before his sixth birthday, Tao watches helplessly as Sheng is dragged away for writing a letter criticizing the Communist Party and sent to a labor camp for "reeducation."
A year later, still missing his father desperately, Tao climbs to the top of the hundred-year-old kapok tree in front of their home, wanting to see the mountain peaks in the distance. But Tao slips and tumbles thirty feet to the courtyard below, badly breaking his leg.
As Kai Ying struggles to hold her small family together in the face of this shattering reminder of her husband's absence, other members of the household must face their own guilty secrets and strive to find peace in a world where the old sense of order is falling. Once again, Tsukiyama brings us a powerfully moving story of ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances with grace and courage.

A tale set during the Chinese Cultural Revolution follows the struggles of Kai Ying to safeguard her family when her teacher husband is arrested and sent to a "reeducation" labor camp for criticizing the Communist Party.
