Reviews for French Toast Casserole
"Family loved, will be making many times"
"I was extremely nervous making this because I cannot stand by bread soggy or even damp...turns my stomach. I had some left over texas toast bread and decided to try half a batch. I followed a tip to bake your bread on 200 for 10 minutes to dry it out a little. Seemed to work ok. I baked 50 minutes and took the foil off and baked 10 minutes longer. It was ok but not something I'll make again. There was an egg taste every so often when we took a bite. I also think some cinnamon should make it into the egg batter because otherwise it was sorta bland in the middle. When I make French Toast normally I add cinnamon in the egg batter and it tastes yummy. There were still parts that were a bit mushy but not horribly bad. Like I said I dont think the casserole is the way to go for us. Regular FT is for us. I also added more butter to the top because we love butter on FT."
"Thanks marshametoo for ways to prevent sogginess. I tried the french bread and it came out soggy which I did not like. It would be good if those sharing recipes were able to add some important notes like how to prepare the bread to prevent a soggy texture. I will give it another try doing it marshametoo's way and see what the outcome is. I wish I had read these reviews first."
"Great way to start the New Year! I swapped out the bread for a loaf of cinnamon bread, which wasn't quite stale enough. I also added about a cup of blueberries which meant we really didn't need the maple syrup. Otherwise I followed the recipe and it turned out really well. A little moist, but that was the bread. I would use this recipe again. Very simple and my whole family polished off our plates."
"We just had this for Mother's Day brunch and it was delicious! I read the other reviews first before making and found them very helpful. I did eliminate the salt as suggested. The french bread that I bought was very fresh so after cubing it I left it out to dry out, as suggested. It seemed to be taking a very long time and I needed to get it ready for the refrigerator so I put the cubed bread on 2 cookie sheets and put them into the oven on 200 degrees for 10 minutes. I turned them over and put back in for another 5 minutes. Afterwards I put them in the 9 x 13 pan for baking and stirred the egg mixture so that all pieces were coated. I also added the sugar/cinnamon mixture, covered and refrigerated overnight. In the morning I put the dotted butter on and baked. It was not soggy at all and everyone really liked it!"

Ridgefield — Families of Ridgefield rejoice. The new play structure at Abrams Park has been completed.
The structure, between the softball and baseball fields, replaces the outdated wood play structure from the 1970s. The new play structure is constructed of coated steel, plastic and other long-lasting materials. When considering a design for the new structure, one of the goals was to maintain the feel and nostalgia of the old wood structure used by so many people.
"We're delighted with the new structure and confident it will bring as much fun and joy to the park as the old structure," Ridgefield Mayor Ron Onslow said.

This show was hacked taken down 5 times and reloaded. A must listen if you want to know what is going on. There is an effort to censor those who are incorruptible sometimes with deadly force as in psychotronics and radionics while at the same time gathering those who are corrupt or corruptible to be the new spokesmen/women for an agenda to steer all information towards a globalist agenda.
Listen to the show along with Alfred Webers latest interview with Roxy to understand the nature of this agenda.
Be well James

Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics: The Tea Party Is Far From Mainstream
The banner headline kicking around the political blogs today comes from Gallup: "Tea Partiers Are Fairly Mainstream in Their Demographics." Gallup's survey comes on the heals of another set of numbers published by the Winston group which also sparked headline from a number of major outlets. The Hill is carrying the Winston numbers under the headline "Survey: Four in 10 Tea Party members are Dems or independents" while the LA Times leads with "Myth-busting polls: Tea Party members are average Americans, 41% are Democrats, independents."
Then there's the oft-quoted Mark Twain: "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."
Behind the headlines, the numbers tell their own story. Gallup reports that 28% of Americans consider themselves to be supporters of the Tea Party. 26% oppose it and the remainder – a full 46% of the population – either doesn't know or doesn't care.
To put Gallup's numbers another way, just six percent more Americans count themselves supporters of the Tea Party than approved of George W. Bush's job as President on his last day in office. Winston reports that about 17% of Americans consider themselves to be Tea Party members, a figure within the margin of error for the percentage of Americans who claim to have seen a UFO.
Gallup also tells us that Tea Partiers are nearly twice as likely to be Republicans as the average American adult and four times less likely to be Democrats. The headline-statistic claiming that "41% are Democrats or Independents" derives from the Winston numbers but glosses over the distinction between the two. Combining the numbers differently, Winston could just as accurately state that just 13% of Tea Partiers are Democrats and the remaining 87% are either Republicans or Independents. Exactly how independent those "Independents" are is of some concern as well. Winston's own trend-lines from 2002-2008 suggest that a lot of today's independents are one-time Republicans who jumped ship during the Bush years. While it would be interesting to determine how many of the Tea Partiers were "Independents" before 2002, that information is not available.
In light of this, suggesting that the Tea Party is a somehow representative slice of the electorate seems either disingenuous or deliberately misleading. A group that is twice as conservative as the general population and under-represents a major party by a factor of four is not "average" or "mainstream;" it is, almost by definition, the radical fringe.

[...] Atlantic says Tea Partiers make up between four and twenty percent of the general population. From here, and here, we find that most of that percentage is made up of old white Republican men with money. [...]

Well a lot of questions have been made about parsing XML in C++ and so on... But, instead of a generic problem, mine is very specific.
I am asking for a very efficient XML parser for C++. In particular I have a VERY VERY BIG XML file to parse. My application must open this file and retrieve data. It must also insert new nodes and save the final result in the file again.
To do this I used, at the beginning, rapidxml, but it requires me to open the file, parse it all (all the content because this lib has no functions to access the file directly without loading the entire tree first), then edit the tree, modify it and store the final tree on the file by overwriting it... It consumes too much resources.
Is there an XML parser that does not require me to load the entire file, but that I can use to insert, quickly, new nodes and retrieve data? Can you please indicate solutions for this problem of mine?

It's important to remember that the credits, for many people, are the 'end' of the game. Therefore, you shouldn't put credits after the League if the rest of the plot isn't finished (and vice versa). What I'd recommend is making the completion of the League and the rest of the major events necessary for a final 'ending' section of the game-a final arc, basically. After that is over, run the credits.
This can be the final confrontation with the villain, a rival battle, gaining access to a Legendary (like Mewtwo in R/B) or Final Boss Trainer (Red in S/G), plot conclusion scene, or anything else you want. What's most important is that the credits don't roll until all major parts of the game are finished. Anything else, and you risk having players leave after the credits without finishing the other parts of the game.
Of course, it's fine to have things unlock after the game is over (Make sure you clue the player in somehow. This can be a post-credits cutscene or simple message appearing on screen.). It's also fine to leave side quests unfinished. Just don't let them miss the key components.

Respond to Review of CLOSED: La Mano Verde
by hack_man
Review: I have eaten at many many vegetarian establishments across the UK & Europe and consider this to be a hobby of mine. Whilst Cafe V in Berlin is my ultimate all time favourite for various reasons, La Mano Verde is the most exceptional vegetarian restaurant experience I have ever had in terms of taste, dining and atmosphere. Located off Invalidenstrasse close to the the main Hbf in a primarily residential area it's a little difficult to find but absolutely worth every effort. The premises are exquisite creating an amazing impression from the outside. Once inside the highly professional, knowlegeable and attentive staff make your visit extremely welcoming. The interior is beautiful with plenty of seating and a fantastic ambience. This is sophisticated vegan gourmet dining. OK, it's quite expensive (€6 for a starter, €15-16 mains, €6 desserts, house wine €18 and a 250ml bottle of water for €4) but compared to equivalent meat-eating venues this is a bargain. The food is simply delicious, in fact it's sublime and perhaps even more so. I'm not even going to attempt to describe what I had as I wouldn't do it justice. The menu changes regularly and the chef sometimes changes the recipe if she's not happy with a particular combination of ingredients. Check the website for the current menu. The waiter was very knowledgeable explaining every part of the meal in detail, the staff are proud of their restaurant and it is a pleasure to discuss this with them. The only other place that came close was Saf in Munich but La Mano Verde is a far better package. It is 100% vegan, there are gluten free and raw food mains and an exclusive selection of wines. Save up and go there if you are in Berlin.

The study, which took in the views of 500 CIOs, discovered that half of these folk wanted to embrace tablets because their form factor made them more appropriate for hot-desking schemes.
[Edit: Hot-desking usually involves multiple employees using the same workstation during different times of the weeks, often in a bid to save costs.]
In truth though, the Virgin Media Business study had a mixed message on tablets in business.
Approximately 43% of surveyed CIOs believed that removing tablets would have no impact on their business, although another 15% claimed that they could operate their business without a laptop or PC. "We're at a crossroads about [...]

must lie behind those eyes."
Beefalo are neutral Mobs that are indigenous to the Savanna biome unless their world generation setting is changed to "more". When one Beefalo is attacked, all nearby Beefalo will become hostile. Beefalo deal 34 damage with each hit. They drop three Beefalo Wool, four Meat, and a Beefalo Horn 33% of the time when killed, and they drop wool even if they have been shaved already. They are considered innocent creatures and killing one adds 4 points to the player's naughtiness level, which can cause Krampus to appear.
Beefalo can be shaved with a Razor while they sleep, which causes them to drop three Beefalo Wool. They will regain their hair back in a couple of days and can be shaved again at that point. As long as there is not already some on the ground near them, they will occasionally drop Manure (even while sleeping), which is used for fertilizing Plants and Farms.
Beefalo have a coordinated herd movement, as they try to stay together and not wander into other biomes. When dusk comes around, all nearby Beefalo will group together for the night. Herds regenerate during mating season off-screen. Beefalo need three blasts from the Ice Staff to be frozen.
Baby Beefalo
Baby Beefalo are the offspring of Beefalo. A Baby Beefalo will grow into a Toddler Beefalo, then a Teen Beefalo, and finally an adult Beefalo. Each stage takes 3 to 5 days. Baby Beefalo do not follow the player if the Beefalo Horn is used, and they cannot be frozen with the Ice Staff. Killing Baby Beefalo raises the player's naughtiness by 6 points. Baby Beefalos will go to sleep at night, just like adult Beefalos.
They follow their parent around, they cannot attack, and run away from the player when approached. If a Baby Beefalo's parent is killed, the Baby Beefalo will still walk towards the spot where the parent died; even if it is chased away a long distance, it will slowly walk back towards the spot. If a Baby Beefalo grows into an adult Beefalo, they will stop moving towards their parent and start roaming around. Because the Baby Beefalo flees when the player approaches, they can be "herded" into a cage of walls created by the player. They cannot break through the walls as they attempt to run back to their parent. This method can be used by the player to keep Beefalo in a specific location for easier farming.
When the player attacks one Beefalo, all nearby Beefalo will become aggressive. However, every Beefalo that was not attacked will lose interest in the player fairly quickly, while the one that was attacked will chase the player longer. Beefalo are faster than the player, but they must stop for a moment to attack, and their attack is not instant, meaning if the player keeps running, they probably will not get hit. This makes it possible to attack a single Beefalo and lure it away from the herd, because the rest of the herd will stop chasing. They attack slowly, with four seconds between attacks. This makes it easy to "Kite" them. If the player has a herd of Beefalo nearby them and monsters are chasing, it is possible to kite the monster into the herd. They may turn on each other, rendering the player free from peril.
Alternatively, the player can wait for nightfall when the Beefalo are asleep and plant a circle of Trees around the herd. By building a Campfire next to the Trees and feeding it fuel, the Trees will eventually catch on fire. Some of the Beefalo will perish in the fire, but the meat remains. The upsides of this strategy is that it's fairly easy to do. Furthermore, the burnt Trees can be chopped down and will then leave charcoal once chopped. However, it should be noted that this method will burn the wool, so only attempt this if meat is what the player is after.
Another method: at night when they sleep in a tight group, the player can use a Razor to shave the ones on the outside so the wool will be dropped on the ground, then light the wool up with a torch. The fire will damage the Beefalo for easier combat.
If a Beefalo is shot with one Sleep Dart, it will engage the player as if attacked with any other weapon. However, since the sleep dart does 0 damage, other Beefalo will not aggro. The player can then lead the chasing Beefalo away from the herd and kill it. This strategy also works with the Ice Staff, and since it has 20 uses and relatively cheap material cost, this is a very effective way of safely farming Beefalo for their meat and fur for a long time.
Below is the number of hits it takes with each weapon to kill Beefalo when playing with characters with a default damage modifier. The Weather Pain is not included due to the random nature of its projectile.
|No. of hits for
|9 - 17
|7 or 12
|No. of hits for
|5 or 7
Beefalo are gathered in groups called "herds". A Beefalo herd has a maximum size of 12 Beefalo. Any herd at its maximum size will not be able to spawn any Baby Beefalo, although they will still have a mating season (or be "in heat") as usual.
Beefalo herds are not fixed throughout the game: a large herd may split up into two smaller herds, and smaller herds may be merged. This "herd calculation" occurs at regular intervals throughout the game (around every five seconds).
If a potential herd member is not part of a herd, it will create its own herd (with itself as only member), and will then attempt to gather nearby members into its herd.
A herd with less than four members may merge with any other herd, provided that the resulting "final" herd does not exceed 12 members. Although not possible to predict accurately, it appears that larger groups of Beefalo in a given area increase the likelihood of multiple herds forming (in locations previously only containing one herd).
All herds have a "home", which is defined as the location where the herd was formed. Beefalo will always attempt to return to their "home" (e.g. after combat or a Beefalo horn was used), and will not wander far from their home during random wandering (so Beefalo often appear to stay in one Biome, or area within that Biome, with some variation). Subsequent herd calculations that result in a new herd will result in a new "home" for all Beefalo in the new herd.
Additionally, herds may only form within a certain range, which is why it is possible for the player to lead a number of Beefalo away from the herd with a Beefalo horn. If they are far enough from the original herd after the horn's effects are over, they will firstly attempt to rejoin their original herd; after a time (during herd calculation), they will most likely form their own herd, which will have a new "home" at the new location.
Mating Season
During mating season, Beefalo in the world will change. Their backsides become red, and instead of looking startled, they will instantly "aggro" and attack the player when they walk by, about two berry bushes' distance. They will also be aggressive towards other mobs, including Chester.
During mating season, attacked Beefalo stop chasing their enemy sooner than regular Beefalo.
A few days later, all Beefalo will stop being aggressive; this is the time when Baby Beefalo will spawn.
All members of a Beefalo herd are always in the same state of heat at any one time ("in heat" or "not in heat"); however, each Beefalo herd may be in a different state of "heat", since each herd has its own "heat" timer. If there are multiple Beefalo in the same area with different states of "heat", then this indicates that there are in fact two distinct herds in the same area. However, there may be members of the same herd not in heat if they reached adult after the others started. These delayed members will enter heat with the rest at the start of the next cycle instead of starting their own.
In the Reign of Giants DLC, Beefalo will be in heat during Spring. That means as soon as a new baby is born, the Beefalo will begin spawning another. It's often possible to see two baby Beefalo at the same time during this season, even three if the herd was already in heat before Spring started. If Spring is the starting season, the Beefalo will enter heat a few days into the season instead of Day 1.
Wearing a Beefalo Hat will ensure that the player is not attacked by Beefalo in heat. The player may then walk amongst them with impunity rather than spending time to go around them. It is also useful for safely picking up drops among the herd, since they will attack everything that goes near and small animals don't stand a chance against them. Moreover, Beefalo in heat often attack Pigs and generate huge amounts of meat and other Beefalo drops this way.
Beefalo during mating season often wake up while being shaved. This makes shaving them hazardous without the Beefalo Hat.
Don't Starve Together
Newly added to Don't Starve Together is the domestication and mounting of Beefalo. Beefalo can be tamed and domesticated by either whipping them with the Tail o' Three Cats or feeding them Cut Grass, Twigs, and Vegetables, which will separate them from their current herd. This will also cause them to no longer participate in that herd's mating season. A Beefalo with any sort of domestication can be equipped with a Saddle; the more domesticated a Beefalo is, the longer it keeps the saddle on. Attempting to saddle a Beefalo without any prior attempts at domestication or while it's in heat will cause it to toss off the saddle and become hostile.
Domestication adds several new features to Beefalo, such as different Tendencies that the Beefalo can undertake.
Ornery: The Beefalo deals more damage with its attacks (50 damage per hit without the War Saddle).
Docile: The Beefalo can be ridden for longer and moves faster, but deals less damage (25 damage per hit).
Pudgy: The Beefalo emits a positive Sanity aura of +6,25/min, but deals even less damage (20 per hit) and moves a little slower when ridden.
These Tendencies given to the beefalo by the player depending on the actions they do. Attacking and getting attacked with the Beefalo makes it more Ornery, mounting the Beefalo makes it more Docile, and feeding the Beefalo makes it more Pudgy. The dominant Tendencies will be made clear based on how the face of the Beefalo appears.
Beefalo can be fed Vegetables to raise their Health and Hunger value. If a Beefalo is fed food while its hunger is maxed out, it will start making fart noises and whipping its tail.
As long as a Beefalo's hunger is above 0, it will slowly become domesticated overtime. Once domestication has reached a threshold, the Beefalo will become Domesticated. Once a Beefalo has become domesticated, its Tendency is locked permanently.
- A real Beefalo is a man-made hybrid between an American Bison and domesticated cattle, intended for increased beef production.
- The Baby Beefalo sound clips are just the normal Beefalo sound clips sped up.
- A Baby Beefalo growing to its next stage has the same animation as an adult regrowing its wool.
- Trapping a Baby Beefalo in a pen made of walls will cause it to try to get to its parents, but it is unable to due to the pen.
- Maxwell has said the Koalefant is a distant cousin of the Beefalo. This might explain the slight visual similarities between the two.
- Sometimes Beefalo will start sleeping at Dusk instead of Night.
- Occasionally when going in or coming out of a Cave, a Beefalo will spawn and start following the player. The Beefalo will also follow the player back in or out of the cave.

VPS Troubleshooting
- 1 Overview
- 2 Checking resource usage
- 3 Checking an overloaded VPS (old VPS plans only)
- 4 Rebooting your VPS
- 5 Changing the web server to nginx
- 6 Linux commands to troubleshoot your VPS
- 7 Log file details for troubleshooting
- 8 See also
You may notice at times that your VPS is not running as well as it should. There are several things you can do to troubleshoot your VPS, and this article lists some of the most common things you should check first.
Checking resource usage
The following symptoms are often associated with high resource usage:
- Out of memory
- Restarts
- Inability to log in (i.e., "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host")
Checking your daily and monthly resource usage
You can check the daily and monthly memory usage graph in your panel:
- Navigate to the (Panel > 'VPS' > 'Dashboard') page.
- To the right of your VPS, click the RAM bar graph under the 'Usage' column.
- A graph opens that shows you the RAM Usage History:
This graph shows you a general overview of how much memory your VPS is using. Please note however that if a spike in memory occurred, it may not show on the graph since the graph only displays average usage.
Changing your memory allocation
As of March 2016, new VPS plans are created with a specific amount of disk space and RAM. It's not possible to adjust the RAM on these new machines. However, older VPS machines still have the ability to adjust their RAM allocation.
If you find the graph is hitting your allotted memory limits, you should increase your RAM allocation.
To increase your RAM allocation:
- Navigate to the (Panel > 'VPS' > 'Dashboard') page.
- To the right of your VPS, click the Change RAM button under the 'Actions' column.
- Once you select a desired RAM setting, click the Change RAM button to save your changes.
- As you move the slider bar the amount of memory updates automatically, along with the rate you'll be charged for that setting.
- Please allow a short period of time for the setting change to be reflected; typically no reboot is necessary.
Checking an overloaded VPS (old VPS plans only)
If you've confirmed that your VPS is hitting its memory limits, it's recommended that you start out by doubling your current resource allocation to see if it's enough to prevent the VPS from rebooting. Once you've verified that things are running properly you can reduce your resource allocation to the point where your peaks just barely exceed what you have allocated. Of course, you'll want to routinely monitor your usage and increase the resource allocation as your needs increase.
|It's best to over allocate than under allocate! You don't want to find out that you've under allocated by your visitors/customers complaining about your sites not working properly.
You're only charged for the period of time that you have the slider in a particular position, so it's safe to experiment.
You will typically see Apache processes running on your server and appearing to consume all of the memory. This is generally not the case because Apache processes share a significant amount of memory between one another. Additionally, DreamHost automatically configures Apache to work well within the memory allocation of your private server.
It is still possible for a busy website to overwhelm a VPS server, but it is not generally the fault of the Apache web server itself. The processes you should be most concerned with are the PHP processes: PHP sites that are not optimized can use an extremely large amount of memory.
Of course you may also want to try to reduce the load on the server as well, so you can reduce the resource allocation and save some money.
Rebooting your VPS
If necessary, you can restart your VPS within your panel:
- Go to the (Panel > 'VPS' > 'Dashboard') page.
- To the right of your VPS, click the Restart button under the 'Action' column.
- Please allow a few moments to complete. You may notice a brief downtime on your website as a result.
Changing the web server to nginx
DreamHost's Apache web servers are configured in process-based mode. This means that each process serves one simultaneous connection and uses a significant amount of memory for that, thus limiting concurrent user count. DreamHost offers the option to change your web server to nginx within the panel.
- Navigate to the (Panel > 'VPS' > 'Dashboard') page.
- Click the Configure button to the right of your VPS.
- Select a server from the 'HTTP Server' drop down menu:
- Apache
- nginx
- No web server
- Nginx servers use async i/o and can handle large count of concurrent connections without consuming much RAM, especially when serving static files.
- Most of the time, Apache is more than sufficient but if your site is receiving very heavy traffic, you may wish to look into nginx.
Linux commands to troubleshoot your VPS
There are many ways to keep track of your VPS' Memory and CPU usage. If you start to notice that your VPS went from 60MB of memory usage a day to 250MB of memory usage a day, you should probably take a close look at what is going on behind the scenes.
The following describes various commands that help you pin point high memory usage and high CPU usage.
|The following commands must be ran within a shell terminal. View the SSH article for further details.
The 'top' command allows you to view system tasks running in real-time. It provides a good summary of your system to quickly check if anything stands out that may be causing issues with your server. View the following man page for further details:
Top has a few shortcut keys that are available which changes how the information is displayed:
|# Shortcut Key
|Displays summary information on and off.
|Displays memory information on and off.
|Sorts the display by top consumers of various system resources. Useful for quick identification of performance-hungry tasks on the system.
|Enters an interactive configuration screen for top. Helpful for setting up top for a specific task.
|Enables you to interactively select the ordering within top.
|Issues renice command.
|Issues kill command.
|Turns color/mono on and off.
Displaying the top ten processes
The following four commands display the top ten (10) processes that are using memory on your VPS:
ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -k 1 -r | head -10 ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -r -k1 | less
- or:
ps -eo pmem,pid,user,args | sort -k 1 -r | head -10 ps -eo pmem,pid,user,args | sort -r -k1 | less
The following command shows USERNAME, CPU%, MEMORY%, and the number of processes running. Run this command on a single line:
ps aux | awk '{cpu[$1]+=$3; mem[$1]+=$4; procs[$1]+=1} END { for (user in cpu){ print user,"cpu:",cpu[user],"mem:",mem[user],"proc:",procs[user] } }'
Displaying memory usage of a specific process
top -b -n 1 | grep -i [EnterProcessName]
- or by username:
top -U [EnterUsername]
Displaying memory usage with /proc/meminfo
ps aux --sort pmem
Use the following command to view memory usage over time (requires you to repeat the command or usage of a cron job):
ps ev --pid=[EnterPID]
To display all currently running processes and detailed information, use the following command:
ps -ef
and on most systems:
ps -aux
You can find a memory leak by running:
ps ev --pid=[HighestEnterPID]
iostat to view CPU usage, disk activity, and network filesystems
Log file details for troubleshooting
View the Finding causes of heavy usage article for further commands you can run to check your site logs.

Nazaret A Group
Nazaret A Group is led by a 41 year old, Obednego L.. He is married and blessed with three nice children. They are:
- Remli L., 17 years old, who is in the Second Grade of Senior High School
- Reliana L., 14 years old, who is in the Second Grade of Junior High School
- Rismi L., 7 years old, who is in the First Grade of Elementary School
Obednego relies on agricultural crops and the breeding of pigs and goats. Obednego is very concerned about his children's education. For Obednego education is a priority for his children's future. Currently, Remli is studying in a Catholic School in So'e - South Central Region of Timor in East Nusa Tenggara Province. It is situated about 150 km from Oenif Village, so they need a lot of money to pay his education costs. He has to send IDR 500,000 per month to pay for his son's school, living expenses and daily needs. This is one of the reasons why Obednego has to work hard at selling his crops. Fortunately, his wife is able to help him with selling their agricultural crops at the market.
As the father of 3 children, Obednego dreams of providing a better life for his family and to support his children's education through to University. The lack of capital is the main issue for him in improving his family's living standard. Moreover, he also does not have any other skills to generate further income. One day he heard from the clergyman in the village that the Kiva field partner – TLM Foundation, assists poor farmers, particularly in West Timor, by providing loans through the Cattle Fattening Program. He is very interested in joining the program as he has experience in fattening livestock and he thinks this program will have a positive impact on his family's future.
Obednego discussed it with his neighbours and they are also interested in the program so they formed a group which is called Nazaret A. Obednego is requesting a loan of IDR 3,200,000 to buy a young cow to be fattened over a 12 month period. Other group members are also requesting loans to buy young cattle as they are sure this program is a good way for them to improve their families' lives.
Note: Sarlota and Sara were replaced by their family members when the group picture was taken.

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.

Accidental Maintenance Mode
Tuesday, May 28, 2013
I seem to have really settled in to the low 180's. for awhile this was really frustrating me, because my goal is closer to the high 160's.
I am comfortable, I am reasonably happy with the way I look.
I am not 100% happy and do want to lose the other 10-15 lbs.
I think I need too.
That said, do I want to lose it enough to put the effort in?
You see somewhere, with out meaning to, I slipped into maintenance.
I did not fall of the wagon. I have not the minimum exercise, and not kept my calories within weight loss mode.
This is not to say I gave up. I have still been putting in the effort needed not to re-gain.
The good news is that I am confident that I can keep up that lifestyle. This is a little reassuring to me, if I don't drop the ball I can keep the weight off. (I have been terrified of re-gain)
Back to the original question. "That said, do I want to lose it (the last 15lbs or so) enough to put the effort in?
The answer is "Not right now, but hopefully soon".
I feel like it had been taking a lot out of me just to keep up.
I simply do not Want to push myself and put in the extra effort needed to go back to "weight loss" mode.
I do hope that soon, I will be motivated and energized enough to push, but in the mean time I think there is nothing wrong with staying where I am.
I need be vigilant however, I need to daily remember that "maintaining" is not "stopping" and that if I stop trying altogether I will re-gain.
So while I may be less active here on Spark right now, I have not left my friends. I still log on daily and track my exercise. I am just backing down a bit while I prepare my metal and physical forces for that final push.
I think training for the 5k (my first) in August is going to help with that anyway.

You're very wise to be introspective enough to know yourself and when you have too much on your plate! There are many times, looking back, that I would have saved myself a lot of grief and exhaustion if I would have done what you are doing now. Keep me updated and stay in touch!

Wow, a lot of what you have said here resonates with how I've been feeling lately. I have let myself fall into this "maintenance mode" for probably 6 months now and it's not a good thing. I was weighing the same question about maintenance versus weight loss, but have come to the decision that for me, the right answer is, "Just do it!" I fear if I let myself stay in maintenance mode, I will never get there. I know I can maintain this weight, but it isn't even technically within the healthy range for my height, so I need to buckle down and try really really hard and lose 10-15 pounds. If I get there, then I think I will be satisfied with maintaining. I probably could go lower and still be healthy, but that just seems way too far from reach right now and I also don't want to become one of those super skinny people. I really do like my curves... But you are right, keep reminding yourself that maintaining is not anywhere near giving up. It is also a daily effort and totally worthwhile.

Blu-ray Review: 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey'
'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' (Blu-ray + DVD + Ultraviolet)
As surely everyone within range of Smaug's fiery breath knows by now, Peter Jackson's adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" is being expanded to three movies, each approximately the length of one of Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" films. The most recent paperback edition of "The Hobbit" is 320 pages long, but "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey," the first installment, is not strictly an adaptation of the first 106 pages of the novel. In order to bring along viewers whose first exposure to Tolkien was through the "Rings" trilogy, Jackson pads the front end with background and preamble — the first page of "The Hobbit" does not show up until 15 minutes into this film's running time.
Fans of both Jackson and Tolkien will want to imagine that the best intentions were always at the fore, but "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" feels stretched and extended like a mid-1980s dance mix. This section of the story should move along about an hour quicker than it does here. That said, casting Martin Freeman ("Sherlock" and the U.K. version of "The Office") as the young Bilbo Baggins was a masterful choice — his projection of naivete and wonder seems natural and effortless in a film where nearly every detail, from the Kingdom of Erebor to the face of Gandalf (Ian McKellen), feels digitally worked over. "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" honors the source material but quite nearly consumes it with ponderous pacing.
The Blu-ray transfer achieves startling clarity and includes stellar production videos in which Jackson acts as a guide through the making of "An Unexpected Journey." A treatment worthy of a true technical achievement, the film itself can be arduous and fans of the novel will get stuck on the obvious fats and extenders in the script, a not-so-special effect employed to make this road go ever, ever on.

Liquid supports a very simple API based around the Liquid.Engine class. For standard use you can just pass it the content of a file and call render with an object.
Liquid = require"liquid-node"var engine = engine parse"hi {{name}}" then return templaterender name: "tobi" ; then console.logresult ; // or engine parseAndRender"hi {{name}}" name: "tobi" then console.logresult ;
appget engine parseAndRender"hi {{name}}" name: "tobi" nodeify if err resend"ERROR: " + err; else resendresult; ;;
engineregisterFilters return StringinputtoUpperCase ;
Since the code is based on the Ruby implementation we use CoffeeScript's
which is a little bit difficult to write in pure JavaScript.
Take a look at the existing tags
to see how to implement them.

Jamaica Gov't labs get J$269m EU support
(Jamaica Observer) Jamaica will receive euro 2.25 million (J$269.2 million) from the European Union (EU) aimed at increasing the nation's capacity for product testing and boosting export competitiveness.
Government signed off on the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) Capacity-Building Project yesterday at the Bureau of Standards Jamaica (BSJ) office in Kingston. The overall objective of the project is to facilitate increased and more diversified exports of agricultural and agri-processed products.
Seven public sector laboratories will benefit from the EPA Capacity Building Pro-ject — the BSJ's chemistry and microbiology labs, the Pesticides Research Labora-tory at the University of the West Indies, and four labs at the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. The labs will benefit from procurement of labarotory equipment and consumables, training and certification.

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.

I want to make it so I can have the JPanel and make it so that the JScrollPane is the same size as the window, and if there is too much text, the scrollbars will appear. Please help, thanks.

After two-and-a-half years of military service as a paratrooper he was injured and volunteered to work with 3D simulations -- a move that saw his learn the tools of his future trade. Following this, he went on to study traditional art at university. "While I was a student I started founding software companies and for 18 years I created all sorts of software companies specialising in 3D graphics," he said. "I was lucky enough to merge my company a year and a half ago and I cleaned the table. Since last September have been focusing only on my art."Using all of the techniques and knowledge from years of computer simulation, Gever began creating a series of "disaster" art: creations born from simulated accidents. After running simulations, Gever uses rapid prototyping -- or 3D printing -- to bring his post-accident sculptures into existence."The process that I've created means that from the time I write the code and I collaborate with all sorts of experts, until the final sculapture, there is no human intervention."

That ain't a stem, that's a nutcracker!
Man, I learn something new every day here. I've never seen that!
I know it's probably completely safe but I'd feel kinda sketchy with a stem that's half plastic.
and other famous last words:
It's not loaded.....
The ice is plenty thick.......
They don't bite.......
Intersection is clear.......
Trust me, I've done it a million times....
wow, that's really different.
Looking at it I would think it's safe but then again I've never used one and I've never seen another person using one, so........... maybe that says something.

ok well this thing is a POS.
tried using it with a 26.4 cinelli giro d'italia drop bar and it wouldn't get tight enough. i made a makeshift shim...no go. then when i was opening it up, the aluminum cracked in half in the middle of the ridged section.
i was going to put this setup on my windsor to be ironic. back to nitto and 25.4.
Oh nooooo!!.....
I just won this at eBay:
a 1994 ITM model 700 hinged stem...
Got it to add to my Weinmann Delta brake set to start a polished silver and black group:
The group might eventually end up on my polished silver and black Vitus Carbone.
Always had some doubts about these hinged stems but I just had to get this one as it looks like a nice match to my Wienmann Deltas. Not sure if ITM figured out their design better than Cinelli, but I guess I really have to be careful as this ITM could be a "Death Stem" too.

yours looks a bit more robust than mine. just be very gentle opening and closing. oil/grease the hinge before you start working with it.
hopefully you can get it to clamp down hard enough. if you look at my image above, the aluminum ridge part inside the rubber is actually RECESSED slightly. according to my helpful wife, this is probably what is causing it not to tighten. you won't have that issue.

The new Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees are settling into life among rock royalty now, after a blowout celebration last weekend.
While this year's selected few formed a lineup of legends, three stood out from the pack. Last.fm Trends looks at how Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beastie Boys and Guns N' Roses have fared recently.
While all three of the inductees boast consistently solid fanbases, there's only one winner when they're all stacked up side-by-side…
Red Hot Chili Peppers have as many weekly fans as Gun 'n' Roses and Beastie Boys combined, and even saw a rise in listeners related to the Hall of Fame coverage last week.
Beastie Boys might be bottom of the pack, but perennial favorites like "Sabotage" and "Intergalactic" still pull in thousands of listeners every week. The same goes for Guns N' Roses, whose epic "Sweet Child O' Mine" regularly pulls in more than ten thousand listeners.
But the top track is also taken by the Chili Peppers. "Californication" accounts for 7,663,631 plays from Last.fm listeners, a huge amount of love for a track now almost twelve years old.
Check out more from this year's inductees over at the Hall of Fame's website, and get the latest music charts over at Last.fm Trends.

Coolray was very timely and performed efficient service! Everything was excellent from start to finish!
They were exceptional all around. Charles also helped on the service call with Tom. Both were very helpful and have me some helpful advice. I am so impressed we upgraded from 1 to 3 systems for a 3 year service contract. Everyone I worked with is a keeper.
The tech did very good with teaching me about my unit and showing me what to do about what might need to be addressed at a future time. They have excellent customer service reps and excellent tech. I could not have been happier.
I recently hired Coolray. Stan the technician did an excellent job! I hope they know to keep this employee! He was very knowledgeable and professional and did a super job!
Richard T
All of Mr. Plumbers employees are excellent reps of their company. They always do excellent work when we use them.
Stan was able, through intense research and determination to isolate and identify the cause of our problem when are system wasn't cooling. He knowledge and experience was amazing!
Tyson, from Coolray, worked diligently at my home and even stayed late to find the source of my ac problem. He did a great job getting it back to working condition.
We called for Chris from Mr. Plumber and he arrived within an hour. He discovered the problem with the flood was overflow from a humidifier was blocked causing backup and the flood. He replaced and fixed everything. Great job.
I encourage Coolray to keep up their good work. I always receive great service from them! They are knowledgeable, clean and fix my problems every time!
Coolray did an excellent job on all levels. Brad is the most professional rep they have sent to my house since all my years I have been with Coolray.
