A set of five Ginsai (silver decorated) Mukozuke bowls by Kyoto artist Morino Taimei enclosed in the original signed wooden box. The blue is his signature color, silver and gold wavelets surrounding the silver basin. Striking, at the same time complimentary, everything we have come to expect from this artist. Each bowl is roughly 3-1/2 inches (9 cm) diameter and in perfect condition. The box as well is like new. Taimei was born in Kyoto in 1934, and was first accepted into the Nitten National Exhibition at a relatively young age in 1957 (a year before graduating the Kyoto Municipal University of Fine Art!). In 1960 he received the prestigious Hokutosho prize at the same National Exhibition. In the early 60s he worked as a guest professor at the University of Chicago. Upon his return to Japan his career began to lift off with a second Hokutosho Prize at the Nitten, followed by The governors prize and others at the Gendai Kogei Ten (Modern National Crafts Exhibition). He was subsequently selected for display at the Kyoto and Tokyo National Museums in 1972 and was accepted into the first Nihon Togei Ten that same year. Since his list of exhibitions and prizes has continued to grow, with subsequent selections in the Tokyo and Kyoto museums of Art, as well as exhibitions in Paris, Italy, America, Canada, Denmark and others. In 2007 he received the Japan Art Academy Prize, an award to a work of art similar in weight to the bestowing of Living National Treasure to an artist. This puts the artist in a small club, rare and important. For more information on the artist see Contemporary Japanese Ceramics, Fired with Passion by (Lurie/Chan, 2006) or the recent exhibition of works titled Generosity in Clay from the Natalie Fitz-gerald Collection.

The Maine Red Claws announced Thursday that Stephane Lasme, a final camp cut of the Boston Celtics and an affiliated player, and made his 2010-11 regular-season debut Thursday night after recovering from a fractured foot in the team's only preseason game. Expected to be an integral part of the Red Claws' plans this season and an NBA call-up candidate, Lasme, who joined the Red Claws in training camp out of the Boston Celtics camp as one of three Affiliated Players, fractured his foot just 2 minutes into the team's lone preseason game and was not expected to return this season.
In his debut on Thursday, Lasme played 16 minutes and had three points and three rebounds in a 118-105 loss to Erie.
Here are a few stories on the UMass product

Peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches are the last thing you'd expect someone to be arrested over, but a fight about PB&J sandwiches ended up with a man in his 50s carted off by police. It seems that two brothers, who enjoy their peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, had an argument after one brother ate too many.
According to MSN on Jan. 4, the fight got so heated between these two brothers who are both in their 50s, that one pulled a knife on the other and held it up to his face. When police arrived to their Des Moines home, the brother who pulled the knife told the cops that his brother ate just too many PB&J sandwiches.
The brother sat down and ate three sandwiches in the living room and then an hour later, he made another. A fight about overeating and laziness broke out and that's when the knife was pulled. Police charged Jerome Davis with domestic abuse with a weapon. You have to admit, there's nothing like a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich, except maybe four peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!

In Final Pre-Ivy Event, Men's Golf to Visit N.C. State Tournament
With the Ivy League Championship just a week away, the Princeton men's golf team will head to North Carolina State's tournament in the team's final event before the Ivy meet.
Live scoring for the event will be available here via Golfstat. Play will begin Saturday at 8:30 a.m. at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course in Raleigh, N.C. for the first 18 holes. The 36-hole event will conclude Sunday with the final round on the par-72, 7,358-yard course.
The 14-team field includes three Golfweek top-50 teams, all from the Atlantic Coast Conference with No. 9 Virginia, which is also the alma mater of Princeton head coach Will Green, as well as No. 29 Clemson and No. 36 Wake Forest. Princeton is one of two Ivies in the field, along with Columbia, with Duke, UNC Wilmington, Francis Marion, George Mason, St. John's, Loyola (Md.), Valparaiso and Temple rounding out the field.
Princeton has had the same top-four scorers between its two spring events with senior Greg Jarmas, freshman Alex Dombrowski, senior Nicholas Ricci and freshman Jason Chen. The Tigers will tee off at 10 a.m. with the fivesome of Ricci, Chen, Dombrowski, Jarmas and Matthew Gerber.
Princeton's final regular-season event, the Ivy League Championship, will begin Friday, April 25 at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, N.J., the home of seven U.S. Opens, most recently in 1993, and one past and one future PGA Championship, with the event returning to the club in 2016.

Date: May 16 2013
As the first strains of this latest offering from Kurt Vile mosied through the speakers, I felt instant relief — the relief that comes from being back in your comfort zone.
It's exactly what the title hints at — waking up, stretching, strumming a few lazy chords, and then launching into evenly paced, shimmery, languid, beautiful and uncomplicated songs that belie the amount of thought he's put into them (he claims to be a perfectionist).
This is Vile's fifth album, and his work just keeps on getting better. With his laid-back, slacker-style-but-actually-quite-insightful lyrics and gentle, accomplished strumming, Vile comes at you like an old friend of your youth. You can play it in the background, tune in episodically, and discover something new each time — an insight, a wisecrack, a confession.

12 hours is a lot to ask from a UPS. You'll need to measure your computer power consumption while doing an intensive task with something like a Kill-A-Watt, and size the battery accordingly. You'll probably need more than 50kg of Pb Acid batteries to do it – the equivalent of about 4 car batteries. I'd recommend buying deep cycle batteries to increase the life span of the relatively expensive battery bank. The UPS? will need a fan to avoid overheating with that much battery.

… the problem was not in charging circuit ..its something with connectors …. anyway …eventually it work
i have to short the resistor .. it is high power 0.1 ohm … now there is no overload warning ..with. 4 A on AC .. actually i use UPS as protection more than UPS function
but it must? have ventilation system .. thanks again for your vids
knurlgnar24 (1249 days)
Automotive grade fuses can handle significantly more than their rating at cooler temps as they are rated for extremely hot? under-hood temperatures. The efficiency of the UPS is probably about 80%, and PF is nearly 1.0 to a resistive load so 700w continuous is not a problem with adequate cooling.
The load sense on your UPS could be a resistor, a portion of PCB trace, or just limited by maxing out FET drive duty cycle. Hard to know without a detailed inspection.
knurlgnar24 (1249 days)
You'll have to find where the circuit senses load and modify it. If you can find that, then you can add the extra cooling and make other upgrades. I'd worry about the circuit board traces (this is a cheap single sided board), the FETs, and the? cabling – especially the connections. The 30A fuse is definitely a weak point, but I wouldn't recommend running without a fuse as bad things can happen when a plastic box full of sulphuric acid and hydrogen gas reacts violently!
mrwmaad (1249 days)
great work … just wonder about the overloading . could u explain more about the trick u did. as my UPS don't? has this transformer …its? this with very simple circuit
with tow IRF 3205 transistors and one LM317T
wonder if i can rise its load limit as u did ,,,, ??
the IC LM324N
this is the PCB image …

Woops just noticed your reply bit late.
well that all sounds like alot of fun. iv made this absolutly awesome solar setup just need a Need dep cycle batterie. currently has 3 batteries in paralell and charges them up fast. however the system drains of over night now and I figure 1 batterie has died and is suckin itself to death so I think ill get 1 large new batterie and have no more issues. the 3 im using are from ups units iv found. people are so wasteful!!! ?
knurlgnar24 (1249 days)
Your Smart UPS 100 will take about 30W to 40W at idle, so it won't work well to? switch back and forth on a solar setup due to that 30*24=720wH loss per day. You'd want to take the UPS out of the equation by turning it completely off when not running on battery. This could be accomplished but would take quite a bit of work involving a microcontroller driving some relays, etc.
I've considered doing this myself. It's possible but just not very practical.

Adults need six to nine hours of sleep each night, though individuals' needs vary with in this range, according to a study by the Harvard Medical School's Division of Sleep Medicine. Even one night with too little sleep can raise blood pressure and diminish our ability to focus and retain information the following day. Some of the key benefits to being well rested are:
- Chronic sleep deprivation has been linked to anxiety and depression, while getting the right number of z's has been shown to lead to improved moods overall.
- Sleep leads to better immune function, which helps us to fight off colds and the flu more effectively.
- While we sleep, our bodies release crucial hormones, like leptin, that are responsible for helping us regulate and maintain proper weight.
- When we are asleep, our mind is working to "process" everything we learned the previous day as well as preparing to take in more information the next day.
Reseting your sleep clock with an herbal sleep aid
Your circadian rhythms are your natural wake/sleep cycle. After too many late nights at work or cramming for exams, this cycle can get out of whack. Most doctors advise against using prescription sleep aids for long periods of time due to dependence issues and potential interactions. There are herbal supplements that are believed to help reset this clock, so to speak.
Melatonin is a hormone produced by our bodies to induce drowsiness and trigger sleep. Melatonin can also be purchased in supplement form. The Mayo Clinic states that "…the weight of scientific evidence does suggest that melatonin decreases the time it takes to fall asleep ("sleep latency"), increases the feeling of "sleepiness," and may increase the duration of sleep."
It is amazing that something as basic as sleeping can have so many benefits. Getting back on track can be the first step to better health!

My Pyramid
This is not a fad. The pyramid is the suggested amounts of food to consume from basic food groups, subgroups
and oils to help you meet recommended nutrient intakes of calorie levels. The chart has calorie levels set across a
wide range to meet the needs of different individuals. Go to mypyramid.com for this estimate of daily calorie needs.
While following the guide you can measure your serving amounts to get the correct servings amounts. So far in one
month I have lost 25 lbs. Exercise is easy when you do at least 30 to 60 minutes per day as a part of life not a
chore. Set a small goal. Start out with 30 minutes to gradually reach 60 minutes in a month. I have 50 lbs more to
go. Let's do this.
May 1996 Michael Hebranko lost 700 lbs. He was 1000 lbs. He was so large there was a 10 by 5 foot whole
dug out to remove him from his home. A stretcher was also used. He was transferred to an ambulance by fork lift.
He had heart disease, respiratory ailments, and skin infections in his legs. He could not stand more than 30
seconds. This is not funny, it is a disease. Many of us have weight problems not this large. Weight gain can creep
up to large amounts little by little; year by year to 20 lbs will soon be 40 to 100 lbs. It takes time to get it off. A
plateau for 6 months is what I had. Even though I exercised daily; I had to eat the correct portions to reach a small
goal of 20 lbs in 3 weeks. Getting help from a nutritionist is the best thing I could have done. I will soon post my
before and after pictures. Please feel free to send me yours. Let's do it!

If you ask the average lay person if there are any risks in owning a pet turtle or other reptile, the one that most commonly mentioned is Salmonella. This article will explore the risk of Salmonella to herp owners as well as give tips for preventing infections.
Studies have shown that 85% of turtles, 77% of lizards and 92% of snakes carry one of the 500 serotypes of Salmonella. With this high of an incidence one would wonder why every reptile owner in the world hasn't contracted Salmonella. The reality is that while most reptiles harbor some Salmonella organisms, there are several reasons why most people never contract the disease and the risk to most reptile owners is greatly over exaggerated.
With this being said infants, children, elderly, or immunosuppressed people can suffer severely from this disease and in some cases even die. So the risk of Salmonella infection should not be taken lightly and proper precautions should always be exercised.
If you have turtles, snakes, or lizards, you should just assume they have Salmonella unless repeated cultures show otherwise. Now just because we make this assumption for safety reasons, does not mean that we are going to contract the disease. Most healthy humans come in contact with Salmonella on a daily basis, but because they have a healthy immune system and they come into contact with relatively small numbers of organisms, they do not contract the disease. Generally, it is only when we have a suppressed immune system or encounter an overwhelming number of organisms that we actually contract the disease.
The numbers of Salmonella found in turtles, lizards and snakes are usually low and are generally shed in the feces. By following some good common hygiene practices and avoiding contact with the feces of these animals as much as possible, we can greatly reduce the risk of contracting Salmonella.
Basic preventative recommendations include:
If these basic precautions and good common sense are observed, the risk of contracting Salmonella from a reptile is very low. Enjoy the reptile and remember that good hygienic practices are one of the best things you can do to protect yourself and your reptile from a whole host of infectious diseases.

Pretty In Pink - I Think NotThis like the two other colours that I bought with my Lomasi kit do not in any way look like the colours on the colour swatch, this is a clear pink with a glitter base - the only good this was it help save the Curiosity colour I bought by using it as a third coat to take away the matronly colour and make it a bit of a pinky purple.
Seriously disappointed in Amused, Curiosity and the fact that the kit comes with Sincerity (a terrible colour for most complexions, Lomasi is doing themselves a serious disservice - It's like a bad gift with purchase lipstick colour, the one you are sure you can blend with a few other colours in the hopes that it turns into something useful.)

SEATTLE ?C The Arizona womenˇ?s tennis team lost its dual match today, 4-0, to the Washington Huskies at the Nordstrom Tennis Center in Seattle, Wash. The match was played in tournament fashion due to an early flight for Arizona. The Cats are now 7-13 overall.
The Huskies jumped in front by winning the doubles point. Freshmen Venise Chan and Kelsey Anonsen breezed through their No. 2 doubles match against Katie Orletsky and Jane Huh, 8-2, to get things started. Melinda Wong subbed in for an ailing Vanja Radunovic at No. 3 doubles with Aleksandra Malovic, and the two defeated Ariane Masschelein and Natalia Toporowska, 8-6, to clinch the point. The No. 1 match was abandoned with UW's Tara Simpson and Joyce Ardies leading Danielle Steinberg and Claire Riestch, 7-3.
Switching over to singles play, Ardies made quick work of Huh at No. 4 singles, winning 6-2, 6-0. Simpson survived a first set challenge from Toporowska before rolling 6-4, 6-0 at third singles.
With a 3-0 lead, and three Huskies nearing wins, it became a race to see who could grab the final point. Sophomore Aleksandra Malovic reached the finish line first, defeating Claire Rietsch at No. 2 singles, 6-3, 6-2.
This was Arizonaˇ?s first loss to Washington since 2005 and the Huskies first Pac-10 win over a school other than Oregon or Washington State during that time.
Arizona will play No. 41?Washington State tomorrow in Pullman, Wash. at noon.

You have a horse, a reliable truck and a horse trailer. One of your desires is to go to the cool weather in the mountains, to escape the summer heat of Central Arizona.
A really good choice is to travel to Groom Creek Horse Camp six miles south of the town of Prescott in the Prescott National Forest. This campgrounds is managed by the U. S. Forest Service for the exclusive use of equestrian campers. No general camping or camping without a horse is allowed.
There are thirty seven campsites available. Thirty sites have 16' by 16' horse corrals, and each site has a tether line for up to two horses. The camper is allowed to use their own temporary stalls also, or tie up to two horses to your trailer. You may have up to four horses per site. In addition, each site has a wooden picnic table, and a grill with a fire pit.
Loops B & C are reservation required, and Loop A which consists of seven sites is on a first come first serve basis. The charge for 2013 was eighteen dollars per day, if a second vehicle is parked at the site, there is an additional charge of five dollars per day. If you have a Senior Pass issued by the National Parks and Recreational Lands, your fee is reduced 50%. The length of stay is 14 days. Reservations can be made through the Bradshaw Ranger Station 928-443-8000 or on the website www.reserveamerica.com/camping.
If the fire danger is moderate or light, you may use the fire pit for cooking and fires at night. Collecting deadwood for your fire is allowed. If the fire danger is higher, than outside fires are prohibited. You can use propane stoves only or cook inside your trailer if you have a gas stove only. smoking in a clear safe place is allowed, unless the fire danger is high. In this case smoking is allowed in your vehicle or trailer only.
Some of the other rules of the campground are a quiet time from 10PM to 6AM, no loud music at any time, dogs must be kept on a lease and restrained at all times. You are responsible to clean manure each day. There are manure dumpsters, shovels and wheelbarrels available for your use. There is not any dump station in the campground. The maximum length of trailers is 35 feet.
Some of the amentites are vault toilets, water for people and horses, the campground is fenced in case your horses get loose. ATVand dirt motor bikes are not allowed in the campground. There is a volunteer camp host and at times other volunteer workers.
For riding, there are three main trails. The Horse Camp Loop is two miles long. You can access this through the gate at site 26 in Loop C, or exiting at the main entrance and turning right at the trail just before the highway, and follow the trail to connect with the Wolf Creek Loop until it separates with the Horse Camp Loop about a mile down the trail. Wolf Creek is marked with blue flags, and Horse Camp is marked by yellow lines.
The Wolf Creek Loop is six to seven miles in length with a stop at the Hassayampa Creek suggested to water the horses or stop for lunch. Part of this trail is on forest road so you may encounter motor vehicles or ATVs. This is a very pretty ride and part of the ride is steep and could be rocky.
The final trail is Groom Creek Trail #307. is nine miles long. You exit out the entrance, crossing Senator Highway to the day use parking lot, and follow the sign at the end of the parking lot. This is a steep ride in places and one spot there is steps built into the trail to prevent erosion. You will encounter hikers and mountain bike riders on this ride and the trail has a number of switchbacks. At the top of Spruce Mountain lookout tower, you are half way through the ride. There is a hitching rail, a picnic table, and a primitive restroom station.
Directions to the camp from the Phoenix area, are I-17 North to exit 262 which is Highway 69. You travel left or east on Hwy. 69 to Prescott. When the highway splits, you stay to the left on Gurley Street. Follow Gurley Street to Mt. Vernon Street (There is a traffic light there.) You turn left or south and Mt.Vernon becomes Senator Highway. The distance is 6.6 miles passing Goldwater Lake and Friendly Pines Camp. The entrance is on your right.
Enjoy your stay, and be respectful of other campers.

I had some of my readers contact me about the situations they are experiencing. I realized that this happens more often than we seem to realize.
Mr. Confused: "My ex-girlfriend got pregnant when we were just dating. I decided to marry her since that is the right thing to do. After a few years of marriage, I found out she was cheating on me. We ended up getting a divorce. Now when I come to pick up my son, she invites herself out with us. She told me it didn't work out with the man she left me for and wants to give us another chance. The problem is she has contracted genital herpes from him. After reading your article "The Joys of Oral Sex" I feel like I could never give up receiving oral sex. I definitely don't want to put myself at risk to catch the disease or to get my heart broken again. What should I do?"
Geri C.: I think you should respect her for the sake of your child, but as far as you committing to her again I'm going to have to say don't do it. I can't say this enough. In life there are consequences to our action. She had to weigh her options before she left you. Clearly she thought that he was a better match at the time. Does she even consider the fact that she broke your marriage vows, which is very serious? Marriage is not something you put at risk like she did, because when you do you can catch the gift that keeps on giving.
I understand the two of you have a son together, but don't let that be the reason to give her another chance. Love should always be your reason. When you put your trust into a person and they take advantage of you, it hurts like hell. Me personally I have a hard time trusting people. To me trust is a gift I don't easily give away. Especially when they do me dirty. It's hard as hell to get my trust back.
If you love receiving and giving oral sex don't sacrifices it for her. You have stay true to who you are. Tell her to get back with the man who gave her the disease. I've been told that you never know what you have until it's gone. That's all you need to say to her and hopefully she will understand. Thanks for sharing you story.
Ineedsome: "I am 37 years old I have been married to an older woman (8 years older) since I was 19. Things don't seem the same. I mean I love her, but my eyes are starting to wander. We rarely have sex anymore and I starting to masturbate to XXX movies. I am about 5'8″ and 175 pounds light skinned with a medium build, and have a good head on my shoulders. Some women say I am handsome and others say cute or good looking. I don't know what to do; we communicate well sometimes and other times not so good. I need your help! Please don't charge me!"
Geri C.: Have you told her how you feel about not getting laid? Maybe the two of you should try something new in the bedroom, bar, or pool. You feel me? Women hate when it is routine. If you feel like your eyes are starting to wander then trust me, so are hers. When you committed yourself to a person you should want to completely all their inner fantasies. If you don't or she won't then someone else will, and that's the reality. Both of you have to be on the same page and willing to work together because at the end of the day the two of you are in a partnership together. Make your business generate assets! Get rid of the liabilities by communicating more.
Ineedsextipasap: What's good? I've seen your Facebook and have seen that you have made this website where I think you can discuss sex topics. I thought it might be right if I came at you personally to ask you for some tips.
So my older brother is taking me to L.A. this summer and he told me that he has a girl over there for me. Now I am not virgin nor am I a newbie to sex. I've been in a sexually active relationship for over 3 years. The girl I was with was about my age, which is 19. Now the girl he's got over there is 21. I need to know if there are any secrets as to satisfying an older woman. I want to show her even a youngin' like me can work that shit just like any other older man can. I'm very certain you're a very mature and older woman who might be able to help me. I know pleasing a teen and a woman are two different things, so let me know what's up. I mean preach it out. Let me know the deal straight up.
Geri C.: First off all, let me say that pleasing a woman is doing just that… pleasing her. Age doesn't matter at all, pleasure on the other hand does. You have time to build up the tension between you and her. You should do this by learning about her a little bit by phone. What I love to do is something I call "Text Sexing." I will post the article I wrote on it to my blog. By doing this, you build up the sexual tension between you and her. By the time you get to L.A., she won't even have on panties because she will be ready for you to dive in. Turning a woman on with just words gets them hot. They get curious to know if you really can do what you say. So don't make up move that you don't know how to do. Keep it real at all times.

Ey, do me a favor Geri and do this more often. That was damn entertaining to read.

Seeing Android hacked onto hitherto Windows Mobile devices isn't new, but this latest ROM is probably one of the most complete - and recent - so far. The handiwork of the guys over at xda-developers, the ROM will load Android 2.1 with HTC Sense onto a device like the HTC Touch Diamond2.
So far, there's a lot more working than still requiring attention. In fact, only the camera and GPS are still causing headaches; the touchscreen, hardware buttons, wireless connectivity, radio and Android market all work, and there's even Flash support though it doesn't seem the Diamond2's CPU is strong enough to get past jerky playback.
Still, if you've an old Windows Mobile device lying around then you could do far worse than to give it a shot of Android. Full installation instructions and all the necessary downloads here.

I enjoy reading and writing. I hope you enjoy at least the former. I have moved my blog to Brendan.Enrick.com.
So one of the most useful methods for ASP.NET development that never seems to be included in ASP.NET is a recursive find control method. This problem results from the standard FindControl method on controls only searching within that control. It only finds child controls not grandchildren or anything farther down the line. This means that anything nested within other controls is a pain to access.
This limitation of the standard FindControl is annoying and has prompted me as well as many other people to use homegrown FindControl methods to solve this problem. This is a big problem when trying to programmatically access controls within templates. So earlier today I read on a list someone having trouble with the built-in find control, and it made me thing that a recursive find control would make a great extension method since it is a method plenty of people want to see on the control class anyway. So I went and wrote this simple little extension method.
For this nifty example I'll use this as my Page class. I've nested some Panels here to make sure that a standard find control would not work.
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel3" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel4" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel5" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="ControlToFind" runat="server" />
Now you'll see here in the code behind I am calling my recursive find control extension method. Notice that I am checking for null afterwards. This is because if I do not find the control my method returns null, so I should check for this. Also because I am using the as statement if the control is not a label my variable will also be null.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
Label theLabel = form1.FindControlR("ControlToFind") as Label;
if (theLabel != null)
theLabel.Text = "Found it!";
Here is the code which makes this cool extension method possible.
public static class Extensions
/// <summary>
/// Searches recursively in this control to find a control with the name specified.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="root">The Control in which to begin searching.</param>
/// <param name="id">The ID of the control to be found.</param>
/// <returns>The control if it is found or null if it is not.</returns>
public static Control FindControlR(this Control root, string id)
System.Web.UI.Control controlFound;
if (root != null)
controlFound = root.FindControl(id);
if (controlFound != null)
return controlFound;
foreach (Control c in root.Controls)
controlFound = c.FindControlR(id);
if (controlFound != null)
return controlFound;
return null;
To create an extension method all I need to do is create a static method in a static class and pass as a parameter "this Type name" where Type and name are the type we wish to extend and name is a local variable name for the instance with which we wish to interact.
One thing I don't see in many examples of extension methods which I have used here is passing a parameter in the extension method. It really is this simple to pass the extra parameter.
This syntax reminds me a lot of the python language whose non-static class methods accept "this" as a parameter. It defines them as taking the instance as a parameter.
Have a great day!

I've been asking for a recursive FindControl() method as a method off of System.Web.UI.Control for
Community Blogs
Barry Clark
newbie hd
Dave B
I couldn't get it to work - if I ran the code as posted it fell over on the line:
controlFound = c.FindControlR(id);
Error was something like 'c does not contain a definition for FindControR'
I changed it to:
controlFound = FindControlR(c, id);
and it worked. So, what am I missing? I presume it works for other people? FindControlR is expecting a Control and a string - how would it work when saying c.FindControlR(id) - i.e. just passing a string to something which does not have a method called FindControlR?
Mike Wilson
Two things you might want to check here. Make sure that you have a using statement at the top of your file including the namespace where the extension method is located. Without that using statement you don't have access to the method.
You might also make sure that in your method declaration that you have "this" before the Control parameter.
public static Control FindControlR(this Control root, string id)
If that doesn't resolve the issue for you, just use the contact form on the blog and I'll email with you and we'll figure out why it isn't working.
Generic Recursive Find Control Extension
Brendan Enrick
I have copied the code exactly as seen, into a class file called Extensions.cs in the App_Code of my application. I get a clean compile but when I execute the application, immediately upon execution of it (just displaying the home page) I get a server error and the error is: CS0121: The call is ambiguous between the following methods or properties: 'Ulc.LoanRecon.Ui.Extensions.FindControlR(System.Web.UI.Control, string)' and 'Ulc.LoanRecon.Ui.Extensions.FindControlR(System.Web.UI.Control, string)'
Any ideas?
Nice post! My own FindControlRecursive helped me out many times. Especially, when I deal with MasterPages.
Thank you!

Incomparable Value
Reviewer: A viewer from Minden, NV US
Whiting Intro Packs are not just for new tyers, but experienced tyers as well. They are packaged to give you incomparable value. For the price of a single cape or saddle you get 2. The only possible downside is they are ungraded, if that is important to you. Also, if you don't need a whole saddle or neck, getting 1/2 saddles and necks is a real bonus. The ones in this combo are brown and grizzly, the most useful for tying the largest variety of flies.
The necks were at least Red Label Prograde, probably bronze, the grizzly saddle was like an Hebert Bronze, the Brown like a Red Label Prograde.
I was more than pleased.
best way to kickstart flytying
Reviewer: A viewer from Hillsdale, Michigan US
I ordered these half capes a few weeks after I got my new fly vise for Christmas. I was drawn in by the price and variety. I am VERY pleased with the amount, size variety, and quality of these hackles. My order also came very fast. 3 days I think. I will for sure recommend this product and company.
Great product
Reviewer: A viewer from New Canaan, CT US
I bought this product for a friend who is a beginner tyer and after looking at the quality of the hackle I was blown away. It is a perfect for not only beginners but experienced tyers as well. Whiuting provieds the highest quality hackle and this product proves that again.Defiantely recommend to any tyer.
Blown Away
Reviewer: A viewer from Little Elm, TX US
WOW is all I can say about the quality and quantity of this product for the price. You really do get a bronze or better level saddles and capes and four of them for about the price of two. I bought both the 4 capes and 4 saddles variety to get my bench up and running. This is the best deal around if you are in need of replacing a lot of your supplies or starting up in fly tying. It would have taken me a lot longer to get a large amount of materials together if it were not for this great deal from Whiting. I highly recomend this bundle if you are in need of a lot of capes or saddles, you really really will not be dissapointed.
perfect for beginners
Reviewer: A viewer from Clarks Summit, PA US
these are the perfect way for beginners to buy hackles...for one low price, you get the four most useful hackle colors and enough to tie hundreds of flies. Also great for the experienced tier on a budget (like myself...)

this casino is a joke...
only give me 100% and support keeps pissing me off.
it states 100 max win. I made 5000 out of the 2000. When I ended it I got message you won 50 deposit minimum of 20 to claim. So contacted support why it wasn't 100, had frustrating discussion. Now I made a deposit and the horror continues,

Didn't have a problem so far with Players Palace Casino. If you like Microgaming games, this Casino is a place to play, with a nice and friendly support (I guess I had luck to run into someone who's helpful). Anyway, the site offers games through web browser with Flash support and Downloadable software that works on PC's.
No US players for this site (along with some other countries), but if your country checks out, you can use U.S. and Canadian Dollars, Euros and U.K. Pounds, with just enough payment options available.
There is no Free No Deposit Bonus in here, but when you register, you get a $2000 bonus and 60 minutes to spend them. You need to place 20 or more bets and win $20 over the original $2000, in order to collect any winnings, with a maximum win of $100. I would prefer to get a $20 for free over this anytime!
Firstly, one thing I really dont need to meet anymore in my life are freeplays on time, and the second one are ugly or low resolution logos for something that highly earning like casino. omG! not recommend , without a must to try it myself :)
again stay away from any casino rewards until they get their act together.
I could probably skip over this casino but just incase you haven't already got the point... these casino rewards joints offer the same high quality microgaming slots and games that are pretty common online, but they are also known for slower than average payouts, poor support, spamming their registered users, and shady bonus terms and tactics, so why play here? There are much better MGS casinos around...
Great casino for Microgaming lovers. Over 300 amazing videoslots. But what i like the most, is free play 60 min. :) That makes your first deposite biger and biger money in your account :) I deposited 50 $ and played with 150$ . Lost all money but had a great time :D
I have played many freeplays but never won, I have though won from a $10 free chip at 2 microgaming casinos and cash out each at $100. I never won at Players Palace, and I did try to win, sometimes you just dont win no matter how well you play and think playing, I am not sure wether to deposit here, i have to think about it and research more,
I really like this casino, they have great Microgaming game selection and wonderful support and overall they can be trusted as they are part from Casino Rewards and I've never had any problems with them, only good experience. However, I think they should improve their bonuses, they have only free play bonus and I don't really like it so when I deposited there, I played with bare cash. Haven't withdrawn from them but I'm pretty sure they can be trusted and there's nothing to worry about.
Registered and deposited long time ago, no special casino, same microgaming download casino as many others, support helpful and good bonuses with the freeplay and other deposit bonuses and freespins, get sometimes no deposit freespins and freechips in my mail, but they also send very much spam emails, which is not good.

During the 20th century, airplane design was driven by the mantra of "flying faster and higher." Starting with the historic first flight of the Wright Flyer on December 17, 1903, aeronautical engineers focused on the design of new airplanes to achieve ever-increasing speeds and altitudes.

H. A. Rey (American, b. Germany, 1898–1977), Final illustration for "This is George. He lived in Africa," published in The Original Curious George (1998), France, 1939–40, watercolor, charcoal, and color pencil on paper. H. A. & Margret Rey Papers, de Grummond Children's Literature Collection, The University of Southern Mississippi. Curious George and related characters, created by Margret and H. A. Rey, are copyrighted and trademarked by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company and used under license. Copyright © 2010 by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company. All rights reserved.
America's favorite monkey, the irrepressible Curious George, is always in trouble! In a great turn of fate, he helped his creators get out of life-threatening danger. Nearly 80 original drawings for Margret and H. A. Rey's children's books and documentation related to their escape from Nazi-occupied Europe are on view.
Curious George, the beloved, irrepressible monkey of children's book lore, is famous for his ability to "save the day." Interpreting the role he played in safeguarding his own creators in times of danger as symbolic, this exhibition delves into the remarkable lives and works of Margret and H. A. Rey. The couple fled Paris in 1940 with a Curious George manuscript in their suitcase. During a tense inspection of their belongings by a border official, children's illustrations were found and they were allowed to continue on their way, eventually reaching the United States.
Featuring nearly eighty original drawings and preparatory dummies for Margret and H. A. Rey children's books and documentation related to their escape from Nazi-occupied Europe, the exhibition will examine the parallels between the obstacles the Reys faced and the drawings that may have saved their lives. The story of their life in Paris and narrow escape is also told through an interactive timeline.
Appropriate for adults and children, the exhibition includes a reading room inspired by the beloved monkey's escapades in Curious George Flies a Kite.
"This, the first Curious George, we did in 1939 in the tower of an old castle . . . in the South of France," stated Margret Rey about the story that made her and her husband famous. Focusing on one of the monkeys first featured in Raffy and the 9 Monkeys, the Reys created their beloved character who is always on the run while they were on the run. The book was likely in process by the time they reached Château Feuga and H. A. Rey completed the illustrations after the couple returned to Paris in January 1940.
The story, which begins with Fifi in the wild and his first encounter with the man with the yellow hat, has biographical undertones. While working in Brazil in the late 1920s and early 1930s, selling goods along the Amazon River, H. A. Rey had ample opportunities to observe and sketch monkeys in their habitat. He would later complain of the tropical heat, which may explain the wide-brimmed head cover worn by the man with the yellow hat, the parental figure in the story, and a self-portrait of sorts. The Reys, who kept two pet monkeys in their Rio de Janeiro apartment, took them along when they sailed to London in early 1936. Fifi's safe arrival at port in the story after his sea journey from the jungle to the city, suggests a happier resolution to the cold sea voyage of the Reys' marmosets, which they did not survive. The character's "narrow escape" after some mischief or mishap would become a constant feature in the monkey's future adventures, and foreshadows his creators' flight from Nazi-occupied France.
Above all, what would gain the little monkey so many fans is his curiosity and spunk—traits that many have attributed to Margret Rey's personality, likely an inspiration and often the model for the character. "All my life I spent standing behind Hans at his drawing board," she once said. "I made all of the movements that George makes."
"Among children we were best known as the parents of Curious George, the little monkey hero of our most famous books," recalled Margret Rey late in life. "'I thought you were monkeys too,' said a little boy who had been eager to meet us, disappointment written all over his face."
Whether falsely alarming the fire department while experimenting with a telephone, going up in the air with a bunch of balloons or a kite, or falling into the water after a failed attempt to fish with a mop, the little monkey is always in trouble, both propelled and undone by his insatiable curiosity and appetite for adventure. As Margret Rey once said, "the soaking in a bathtub, a news item in the papers, a piece of conversation at a party" were all inspirations for Curious George's new escapades. "We write and rewrite, we draw and redraw, we fight over the plot, the beginning, the ending, the illustrations—as a matter of fact our work is nearly the only thing we do fight about."
While the idea of the monkey's narrow escape from danger was introduced in the first Curious George story created by the Reys in France, the concept of "saving the day" is only used in their later books written in the safety of America. By the time the man with the yellow hat comes to his rescue, George's capers have already been mitigated with some poetic justice, which may be understood as emblematic of the important role the character had played both in saving the Reys' lives when fleeing Nazi Europe and later helping them rebuild their careers in this country. In turn, the little monkey born in France acts out the fantasies of many immigrants: he lands an acting job in Hollywood soon upon arrival, advances research by traveling in a spaceship, and makes it to the front page of newspapers, all the while getting thoroughly Americanized.
The idea for this picture book first came to H. A. Rey in 1937, when he was working at the Paris World's Fair for the Brazilian Pavilion, near a penguin display. In the book, Whiteblack, the storyteller of Penguinland, sets out on a globe-trotting pursuit of new adventures. The illustrations, most of which were created by Rey while at Château Feuga, offer a rare glimpse of his playful calligraphy. The manuscript was later dispatched to America for possible placement with a publisher. Drawings for the story were likely carried by the Reys as well, on their escape from Paris. Once in New York, the couple exchanged some correspondence about the book with Ursula Nordstrom at the publisher Harper & Brothers in 1942. The legendary editor's suggestion that Whiteblack be "shortened, sharpened, and improved," may have deterred the Reys from further pursuing the project. The book was only published in 2000, after both illustrator and author had died, following the discovery of the vibrant watercolors among the art and papers willed by Margret Rey to the de Grummond Collection of Children's Literature.
By early February 1940, during the first winter of World War II, as the Reys were trying to figure out a way to reach the safety of America, they embarked on a new project that may have seemed like the perfect antidote: a lift-the-flap book titled How Do You Get There? Featuring bright watercolors, the book's simple premise—each destination can be easily reached if the appropriate means of transportation is used—stands in stark contrast to the difficulties the Reys experienced as they were approaching foreign embassies, banks, and exchange offices in an effort to flee France. The illustrations were finished by April 1940, with the couple's British and French publishers promptly agreeing on the publication terms. Despite these successful negotiations and H. A. Rey's intense efforts to complete the drawings at such a stressful time, How Do You Get There? would not be published in Europe. The Reys likely carried the drawings for the book when they fled, and had it published soon after their arrival in America.

The drawn out HD format war may soon be coming to an end in favour of Blu-ray. HD-DVD has copped a real blow on the weekend due to Warner Bros. pulling the plug on the HD-DVD standard and becoming Blu-ray exclusive. Warner Bros make up for a significant amount of movie titles distributed to the masses and there's no denying this would have really hurt them.
Is this enough of a hit to bring HD-DVD down on its knees? Not necessarily, but given they've just chosen to cancel their CES Press Conference and 1:1 Meetings it's certainly not looking too crash hot at the moment.
In the latest saga in the long-running HD DVD vs. Blu-ray battle, Warner Bros. Entertainment has struck a blow to the former camp. The company announced today that it will soon become Blu-ray exclusive with regards to high-definition DVD titles.
According to Warner Bros., the move to support only Blu-ray is a strategic decision aimed at giving consumers what they want.

Living in Hawaii offers a mainlander, like me, a rich variety of experiences. Sure, we have nice weather here, lots of awesome nature, an active volcano, snorkeling, diving, and lots of aloha.
These are the things that are carefully packaged to tourists to come here and spend their money.
But Hawaii as other things to offer for a populist, like me.
Living here you can see how colonialism pervades in real time upon the land mass and the lives of the native Hawaiians [and indigenous population, by the way, not given the same recognition as "Native American" tribes on the US mainland].
For instance, unlike California where I spent most of my life and where the native population has long been made invisible by Spanish conquest followed by the US spread of sprawl, Hawaii offers an opportunity to see in real time how the West Was Won.
On the Big Island, site of the Ironman Triathlon, a growing number of elite resorts and private mansions owned by rich mainlanders abound. This doesn't occur in a vacuum. The lands are cleaved from the best areas in that familiar dirty trade of a promise of development and jobs.
Here is a recent standoff between native activists and officials from the state of Hawaii.
The development diverts resources to the resorts, the grossest and most visible of these is the golf course, a monstrosity anywhere.
The jobs are like the jobs our elites seem perfectly content with in this strange epoch: low-wage employment, with scarce benefits.
This is the trade-off Hawaii has gotten.
This means for the native Hawaiians, already conquered, its sovereign government overthrown by the same sort of rogue white settlers who settled the US, poverty inevitably increases with each business deal.
So it's peculiar to see not a vibrant sovereignty movement but rather an anti-GMO movement on the various islands.
An insurgent sovereignty movement did gain some traction in the 70's and 80's. One of its most prominent leaders was Haunani Kay Trask, author of "From a Native Daughter: Colonialism & Sovereignty in Hawaii" [1993 Common Courage Press].
When asked about the sad state of the once-vibrant movement to reclaim Hawaii from the US, Trask's diagnosis is simple: potential activists being where they are on the economic caste have had to take on second and third jobs, and a hustle on the side.
Trask's book is required reading for anyone who wants to lift the curtain of Aloha and see the man behind it pulling the levers.
The Big Island, which comprises the County of Hawaii, just passed anti-GMO legislation last December. While this is a victory for the global food justice movement it is also another step in the complete subjugation of the Hawaiian archipelago.
The fight to ban or label GMO crops not only comes from mostly white mainlanders but as such represents a a different sort of conquest of the the land, albeit from the "Left."
Other cultural complexities confront you if you get beyond the scuba diving and rounds of golf buffeted in vast smorgasbords for paying tourists.
Hawaii is a chain of islands with distinct histories. While King Kamehameha is doubly marketed and revered, the natives of other islands, like Maui or Molokaii, are quick to remind you they had their own kings who were conquered and killed by Kamehameha around the time of white settlers were revolting from Great Britain and consolidating rule on the US mainland.
To these islanders, Kamehameha is the Bismark of the Pacific.
This is all glossed over in tourist brochures selling an island paradise adventure to Japanese rich and middle American Iowans alike. All are welcome except native Hawaiians.
And like other cultural extermination campaigns, sprawl will soon pave over this historical diversity with golf courses, five-star resorts, and private estates just as it did long ago to California and the Pacific Southwest US.
The observant Hawaiian resident can see before his eyes the metamorphosis of Hawaii as a museum relic of kitsch or Disneyland theme park.
So the Wall Street right-wing of finance and real estate attack this island from one side and "haole" left-wing come from the other side, perhaps analogous to gun-boat diplomats and missionaries in earlier colonial campaigns.

John "Johnny Morocco" Morris, aged 26, from Sundale Close, Tallaght, Co. Dublin, died in hospital a day after being shot at least twice in the back of the head and chest by gardai during an INLA expropriation at a newspaper distributor's depot in Goldenbridge industrial estate in Inchicore, Dublin.
Reports say Morris had been a recruitment officer for the INLA in South Dublin.
The INLA identified Morris as a member on active service duty as a volunteer at the time he was killed. Three others with Morris during the expropriation were later jailed by the Special Criminal Court on 11 March 1998.
At his funeral, mourners were told that there would be "many more like John prepared to take up the fight on behalf of the Irish working class" and that he had been engaged in a struggle against "British imperialism and Irish capitalism."
The garda was accused of failing to act against drug dealers and politicians of helping to divide society, at the funeral, and it was noted that Morris had observed the growth of economic inequality. "While some grew rich, many were ripped off and exploited" the crowd was told.
He was buried in with military honours at Bohernabreena Cemetary by a 12-man colour party, with a heavy gardai presence.
The gun Morris used was unloaded and he had offered surrender when the Garda arrived. Despite early press reports to the contrary, it was later clarified that Morris was shot in the back of the head.

It's about the scariest occurrence in sports: A batter getting hit in the face with a pitched ball. It happened to slugger Jason Heyward of the Atlanta Braves at Citi Field in New York on Wednesday afternoon, and he was sent to a local hospital as a result.
Update: Heyward has a broken right jaw and will be out from 4-6 weeks, which could mean through the end of the regular season. It's fractured in two places, X-rays show.
Left-hander Jonathan Niese of the New York Mets apparently lost command of a 90-mph fastball and hit Heyward just below the ear flap on the helmet, on a 1-2 pitch in the top of the sixth inning. Heyward staggered, flicked his helmet off, reached for his face and went to the ground as catcher John Buck and umpire Greg Gibson tended to him. Braves trainer Jeff Porter soon arrived.
It's one thing for fans, teammates and even friends watching on TV to see, but how about this from Braves sideline reporter Tom Hart:
Jason Heyward's grandparents are at the game. They have been ushered to Braves clubhouse.
— Tom Hart (@tom_hart) August 21, 2013
Heyward never appeared to lose consciousness, but he was spitting blood as he lay on the ground near home plate. He soon walked off, continuing to spit blood while being escorted arm-in-arm by Porter. Heyward did tap his heart with his fist — apparently in Niese's direction — perhaps as if to say he'd be OK.
After the game, manager Fredi Gonzalez said to reporters hopefully:
"We'll cross our fingers that it's nothing major."
That wasn't the case, though Gonzalez also noted that Heyward popped his head into the dugout before leaving for the hospital to say good-bye to the rest of the team, which probably will beat Heyward to the Braves' next destination, St. Louis.
Meanwhile, the beaning appeared to rattle Niese, who nervously fidgeted near the mound and tried walking toward Heyward as he lay on the ground. He was ushered away by Buck — probably a good call, given the blood. After Heyward was replaced in the lineup by Jordan Schafer, Niese allowed the tying run. Atlanta won 4-1 in 10 innings on a three-run homer by Chris Johnson.
Heyward has been slowed by injuries this season (and other seasons) but he's slugging over .600 the past three weeks.
It's the second time a catastrophic-looking injury happened to the Braves at Citi Field this season. It's also where pitcher Tim Hudson fractured his ankle in July.

Plastic Properties of High Density Polyethylene HDPE
A linear polymer, High Density Polyethylene is prepared from ethylene by a catalytic process. The absence of branching results in a more closely packed structure with a higher density and somewhat higher chemical resistance than LDPE. HDPE is also somewhat harder and more opaque and it can withstand rather higher temperatures 120° Celsius for short periods, 110° Celsius continuously.
