What Nobody on Payroll Will Tell You About Biotrust's Leptiburn and RealDose Nutrition's Weight Loss Formula #1
Everything You Need To Know About Choosing The Best Fat Burner
I have been interested in the science and biology of health for many years. I have always had issues with my weight, being one of the many people that tried and failed at diets repeatedly, or succeeded only to be subjected to the yoyo effect. I find it difficult to avoid all my favorite foods, and I will be the first to admit that I simply love eating more than I probably should. At the same time, I understand that healthy eating and having a good exercise program to follow is hugely important, but if I can't have a couple of days of rest and the occasional sweet dessert, I know I won't enjoy life anymore. Also, changing my diet to remove as many processed, fatty and sugary foods as possible while taking part in some exercise classes didn't seem to be enough for me as well. Although I lost some weight with a variety of programs and systems, I didn't lose as much as I would have liked and I seem to always plateau at some level. Hence, I became interested in using supplements that claim to help me lose weight, in trying to get past that plateau. I wanted to know what is the best fat burner.
What I found, however, was that many companies that deliver supplements aren't as truthful as I would like. Some are blatantly lying, making people believe that they can lose huge amounts of weight doing absolutely nothing. I'm clever enough to understand that these are simple marketing schemes designed simply to make the developers rich. However, there are also a number of products, including BioTrust's Leptiburn and RealDose Nutrition's Weight Loss Formula No. 1, that seem a lot more honest, in as such that they will only support personal efforts. Added to this was the fact that they do not hide behind the cloak screen of "proprietary blends", but rather tell you exactly what is in their product and how these ingredients work. RealDose even explains that the dosage has been scientifically proven to be right for the effects they claim to offer.
Although both products make similar claims, they have very different ingredients. They are also presented in different ways, have different prices and offers and they have to be taken in different amounts. I decided to make a comparison between the two. Which one really is the best fat burner?
The Money Issue
Although both products offer a full 100% money back guarantee, neither offers a free trial. More and more weight loss and supplement products offer trials now, allowing the customers to try a month's supply paying only the shipping and handling costs. This isn't the case with BioTrust or RealDose, which means you have to decide which one to purchase. And, at between $67 and $69, this isn't something you will want to do before you know a bit more about the potential these products have.
Losing Weight With The "Best Fat Burner"
Both products are designed to support your weight loss efforts. Neither, however, are able to deliver that without considerable effort on your part. The big decision, however, is about which one will be best for you. It is for this reason that I have reviewed both products independently (yes, I did invest and try them both). I can't tell you directly which one is better, as it depends on your personal needs and what you do and don't like.
For instance, one of the products contains caffeine, whereas the other one doesn't. If you have sensitivity to caffeine, one of the products will not be suitable for you. On the other hand, a lot of people believe that the additional energy that caffeine provides is crucial in your weight loss efforts since it helps you have more stamina during a workout. Because both products have completely different ingredients – each backed by scientific evidence by the way – it can be very difficult to choose between them. Although I will tell you which one I liked best, I must make it clear that this is because I found those particular ingredients worked better for me personally. I advise anybody to take the time to research the ingredients themselves, in order to find out which one would best suit their own needs.
Before you pick either, however, there are a few questions you need to ask yourself:
- How much weight do you want to lose?
- What is a reasonable timescale for achieving that weight loss?
- Can you afford to purchase the supplements for that period of time?
Neither product is like the Paleo Diet, where if you decide to come off the diet, you will put weight back on quicker than you ever lost it. However, it is recommended to use the product for the entire duration of your diet, until you have achieved your weight loss goals. Both products do offer discounts if you purchase them in bulk, which demonstrates that most people will need to take the product for at least three months.
On the other hand, I feel it is important to factor in the cost of health care that you are likely to be subjected to if you do not lose any weight. You may have to spend close to $300 in order to get your hands on the product, but if you consider that this will stop you from having obesity related illnesses (heart disease, stroke, diabetes and so on), or even if it will stop you from being a slave to pharmaceutical prescriptions , this is a significant saving you will actually make overall.
Hopefully, my experiences with both products and my views on the developers, the efficacy and the ingredients of the two products will help you to come to your own conclusion and decide which is the best fat burner. I do not guarantee that you will agree with me, as said it would depend entirely on your own experiences, your own goals and your own needs, preferences, likes and dislikes. However, what I have tried to achieve here is to let you know the things that the product developers won't necessarily tell you, including both the pros and cons of both BioTrust's LeptiBurn and RealDose Nutrition's Weight Loss Formula No. 1. And if, at the end of this, you have any further questions, feel free to contact me.
So let's get started…

Reviews for Quick Shrimp Gumbo
"This is bound to be a tasty recipe, but it is NOT gumbo. It only fulfills one of three criteria to be a gumbo. It does contain a version of the "trinity" - it contains garlic, onion, and green pepper. This is the least of the three requirements.The other two requirements are that it must contain a roux, which is flour browned in oil or shortening. It must also contain either okra or file' (powdered sassafras leaves). The combination of the roux and either okra or file' create the consistency required to make it a gumbo.Usually, okra gumbo also contains tomato and file' gumbo does not contain tomato.From there, the decision of meats and seafood are a matter of choice.Me, I like to use extra virgin olive oil to brown the roux, parsley as opposed to the green pepper in the trinity and choose from dark meat turkey, smoked sausage, shrimp, oysters, squirrel, and crab for the critters."
"Made this for the first time. I used some shredded chicken instead of the sausage and added a 1/2 cup more of chicken broth and 1/4 cup more of rice. Will make it again and use a bit more chicken broth and a little more hot pepper sauce. All in all, was a good recipe and pretty easy to make."
"Very good, and easy. I used 3/4 pound of beef & cheddar kielbasa (not reduced-fat at all!) and just a few shrimp. My kids wouldn't touch it, but that's their poor taste, not the recipe's fault!"
"Fantastic recipe!!!!! Only two things I did different... I didnt have red pepper sauce so I used red pepper spice abut 1 tsp and some creole seasoning about 1 tsp. the spice turned out great. You could still taste the shrimp and everything! very yummy I will make this again!!:):):)"
"I made this last night with pasta not rice because my husband don't eat rice and it was grrreat,yes I will make it again."

On July 23, 2014 The Taste of Newfound returned for its fourth consecutive year to The Inn On Newfound Lake. Although the dark clouds and impending rain made the crowd smaller than usual, there was no shortage of flavorful dishes to taste at this delicious, and very filling, event.
Residents and visitors from both near and far sampled the best of the restaurants and Inns from the region. There were so many different flavors to experience from savory to sweet. The Reuben fritters from The Common Man where certainly a surprise. They packed the full flavor of a thick Reuben sandwich into a little ball. The Tai meatballs with peanut sauce from The Inn on Newfound Lake were oh so tasty and had a pleasant kick. Smokin Bear BBQ offered up authentic Texas BBQ that made me want to kick up my heals and do a two step. The spinach salad from Pat's Pizza and Seafood was truly delightful, filled with fresh greens, mandarin oranges, dried cranberries, almond slivers tossed in a citrus dressing. Then of course there were the tempting cheese trays from Shop-n-Save and savory dips from The Newfound Grocery, who could possibly resist. I didn't get to snack at all the tables, or else they would have had to roll this reporter out of the event. But, like I always say, save some room for dessert, and I'm glad I did. The creamy ice cream from The Mill Fudge Factory was scrumdiddlyumptious, and the chocolate-raspberry cake from The Inn on Newfound Lake was to die for. From appetizers to dessert and everything in-between, the Taste of Newfound had a little something for everyone.
Along with the many restaurants, several local business had displays and handed out goody bags. The Newfound Lake Region Association also offered Eco-Boat tours on Newfound Lake. What a great event, be sure to add it to your calendars for next year!

Ithorian Droid doesnt enter Mainframe in Czerka Offices on Citadel Station
When on Citadel Station, if I help Czerka, when I fix the Ithorian Droid and the mainframe enters for him to plug in, the droid walks over but the door seals itself shut before it can enter, thereby locking him out of the room permanantly. This IS a minor issue, and doesn't effect gameplay (I can still continue) but it does look funny to see the droid staring at the mainframe door.
Just ignore it and continue is all i can tell you. It is kind of funny but i just go along with it.

The Pankey family of San Diego has filed a negligence suit against Petco for not properly testing a pet rat for disease before it was sold to their 10-year old son, Aidan's grandmother. The boy died two weeks later from streptobacillus moniliformis, a bacteral infection, more commonly known as rat bite fever after being bitten by the animal he had named "Alex."
According to the lawsuit filed Monday by attorney John Gomez "the rat appeared safe, and the boy took the it home May 27, 2013. However, he woke up 2 weeks later during night of June 11 with severe stomach pain and a fever. He was pale, lethargic and could barely walk, and died at 1:09 a.m. the next day."
"He was a bright, energetic, friendly, happy kid who actually had a prior rat, who was a female, and he had this idea in his young head of having his female rat get married," added Gomez.
He also explained that the reason the lawsuit was not filed until now was because they were waiting for lab results from the CDC, which tested the rat to confirm it was infected.
"The suit contends that "Petco should have known about the rodent's health and did not adequately test for the disease." It also says that "negligence led to the boy's death, which has caused his parents, Andrew Pankey and Vanessa Sauer, emotional and economic hardship, and that the retailer did not post adequate warnings about the potential risks, especially for children."
In the meantime the store issued the following statement expressing its condolences:
"We are deeply saddened by the Pankey family's tragic loss.The health and safety of people and pets is always a top priority, and we take the family's concerns very seriously."
In addition, Petco Animal Supplies Inc. said it is "in the process of investigating these claims and will respond appropriately when we have more information."
According to government health officials, people can contract rat bite fever a couple of two ways; either by being bitten or scratched by infected rodents (including rats, mice and gerbils), or even handing them and cleaning up their urine and feces, as well as consuming food or drink contaminated with the bacteria. In the latter case the disease is then called Haverhill Fever. It is not spread from person to person.
While antibiotics, such as penicillin, are highly effective at treating rat-bite fever, if not treated promptly it can prove fatal. Those at greatest risk are people who live and work with rats, such as laboratory personnel, pet shop employees or those living in rat-infested areas. To prevent infection, the CDC recommends that people should wear gloves when handling the rodents and "avoid touching their mouths with their hands until washing thoroughly."
To learn more about rat bite fever readers can contact the CDC at 1600 Clifton Rd. Atlanta, GA 30333, or call 800 232-4636).

Analysis: Speaker
Think of the speaker as an interested and horrified third party. We're not coming at this from anyone's specific point of view, unless you want to count the poet herself. But there is no "I" in this poem – most of it is in the third person.
So then who's talking? We might be able to imagine the speaker as a kind of poetic historian – someone who has just found out these horrible facts about the history of Haitians in the Dominican Republic, and wants to make sure that we know about it. The speaker is concerned with issues of hate, especially when it's race-related, and since stumbling upon this piece of history, has not been able to let it go. Thus the repetitive insistence – since the story seems almost too bizarre to be true, the speaker must convince us that it is, in fact, true, and that it bears thinking about. Sometimes the only way to get your point across is to reiterate it multiple times. So that's one way to think about where the speaker is coming from.

Forecasters say there is still a potential for hazardous conditions — not ideal for a weekend packed with outdoor events — though the low-pressure system threatening severe weather for the Tampa Bay region looked less ominous Thursday.
"Models are toning it down slightly," said Tyler Fleming of the National Weather Service.
Those models now show the system moving slower and farther to the south than previously predicted.
The region will likely see showers and thunderstorms, bringing heavy rain and winds Saturday night into Sunday afternoon.
"The only question we have is the severity of any storms that develop," said Bay News 9 meteorologist Juli Marquez.
Tampa Bay could see strong, gusty winds; frequent dangerous lightning strikes; hail and locally heavy rains in the storms, according to the National Weather Service.
The chance of rain Saturday is 80 percent. It's at 60 percent on Sunday, according to Bay News 9.
That's not want organizers want to hear for tons of outdoor events this weekend, from Clearwater's free Fun 'N Sun concerts in Coachman Park to the Erase Hate Fest in Tampa to American Stage's the Rocky Horror Show performance in the park in St. Petersburg.
What's a fun-lover to do?
Pack an umbrella and keep an eye on the weather.
The 13 Ugly Men White Party at the Sheraton Tampa Riverwalk hotel on Saturday will go on rain or shine, as will the popular Mainsail Arts Festival in St. Petersburg's Vinoy Park on Saturday and Sunday.
Like baseball games, American Stage says it never lets the threat of bad weather cancel a show, so the Rocky Horror Show in the park is a go at Demens Landing. If the weather makes organizers pull the plug, patrons can use their ticket for any other upcoming performance.
Most other event organizers say the same. And remember, just because it's raining in Tampa doesn't mean it is in St. Petersburg, or vice versa.
On Wednesday, some forecasters had warned of a low-pressure system expected to form over the Gulf of Mexico, bringing the possibility of tornadoes, gusty winds and large hail. Others cautioned that the system was too far away and it was too early to forecast its effects with any certainty.
Meanwhile, parts of the region were hit with showers Thursday morning. The hot, humid weather will continue today, with rain chances increasing through the weekend.
Times staff writer Sharon Kennedy Wynne contributed to this report.

While i don't advertise to the townsfolk and theives what i may or may not have, it doesn't matter much on the internet. The BATF and FBI know your IP address and probably read every word on firearms forums (creating jobs) so you can get rid of that tinfoil hat and stop worrying about it.
Every single word that is printed on the internet is stored in a database.
Every single comment that you make, every single thought that you possess and let others know about, is recorded.
Just by looking at the boards you frequent, the magazines you susbcribe to, the organizations that you are a member of, all it is stored in a database.
There are people employed by this government that do nothing but anaylize your habits and make some pretty accurate personality profiles of each citizen in this country and even abroad.
Just something to think about it.
I talk guns only with people I know are into guns. I don't talk about having a CCW except with people I know who also have one.
HotGuns: :yup:
I don't say much about guns to anyone. Too many people let things come up in conversation with others then strangers know what you have. I never reply to threads here or anywhere else that ask how much ammo, how many guns,etc. Do you really believe everyone on a gun forum is your buddy?
Some know more than others, some know more than I'd like (gossipy family members):rolleyes:,
but no one knows how much or exactly what all I have.
In a paralell universe where I have money
Fedex is supposed to be dropping off another half dozen thirty round AR magazines today, but that's for a zombie project that I'm working on. I don't actually have a gun that the magazines will fit. :smile:
More in person than online, which isn't much beyond a few reviews/comments about a specific gun I've shot or carried from time to time.
Few have any purpose knowing the full list of what tools I've got or use. Several friends are aware of the basics, but knowledge of the full extent of the armory or ammunition locker(s) doesn't help anyone to a better outcome. It's just not relevant. The flipside is that there exist people in this world that would take such knowledge and run with it, to evil (or even merely fearful busybody, or punative) ends. Let alone the less-than-honorable who would cause deliberate damage because of such knowledge. Pass, on that.
I've only had 2 somewhat awkward moments when people learned I carry...
Once a friend's car was in the shop so I was driving him around doing random errands. He added a stop by the post office while we were out and about. We were having a nice conversation about life in general when I parked. I pulled out my pistol and started putting the trigger lock on it, not thinking anything of it, when he says 'whoa there, is that a gun, what do you need that for'....long story short we concluded our day with a trip to the range.
Another time I was picking up my little bro's GF from high school and she didn't understand why I didn't just drive through the lot like everyone else, waiting instead on the side of the street. "You act like you have a gun or something". Then she noticed it on my right hip on the way to my little bro's house. This was my fault because I had only recently started carrying, wasn't quite comfortable with it yet and was trying different holsters and placement, and didn't realize that in my state one can have a gun on school property while in their car as long as the gun stays in the car. My bad.
If people ask, and I think they're sincere with their question, I'll tell them what I'm carrying on my person since I OC during summer. But if somebody asks me if I own a lot of guns, or what I own or what's that in your holster and there's no rhyme or reason to inform, then I will just go on my way. Online though, I do share the info a little more freely, but I don't tell about ALL the guns/weapons I own. It's just not safe. A lot of homes are targeted for the weapons and the serial numbers will eventually get back to you. Better to be cautious and discreet than to come home and have your own gun used on you or your loved ones.
Probably more online than in person. But there have been a few times that I've shown my guns to potential new shooters that have shown an interest in going to the range or wanting to buy their first gun. I'm all about educating someone new if there's a spark of hope. I'm not an instructor, strictly on a personal level I've probably been involved in 10-15 or so people shooting for the first time including their kids but not including my family. Showing kids is the most rewarding to me though. I find it to be a complete blast.
I can't say either, as mine were also lost in a tragic boating accident.
It's beginning to seem "tragic boating accidents" are the #1 cause for loss of all firearms. Maybe deep lake firearm salvage would make another great reality TV show on A&E?
To keep our insurance premiums lower, maybe we should pass another law and include something like the following on public lakes and river signage.
No Boating Under the Influence & No Boating with your Entire Firearms collection on Board.

Player of the Day: George Holley
by Kate Smith
Inside-forward in profile.
George Holley's goalscoring talents were such that only three Sunderland players have scored more times for the club.
Signed from Seaham White Star in November 1904 and thrown into the team for the first time against Sheffield Wednesday the following month, Holley's eye for goal soon became apparent.
He scored a hat-trick in the 9-1 win over Newcastle in 1908, collected a League Championship medal in 1913, and was Sunderland's leading scorer on six occasions.
Holley played as a guest for Fulham during World War One and also represented Brighton before returning to Sunderland as a coach in 1921. He later served as trainer at Wolves and Barnsley.
In total Holley made 315 appearances for the Lads, amassing 160 goals.

Handshake transmits more bacteria than fist bump or high five, study finds
(NBC News) - Our society dictates that when meeting someone new, the polite thing to do is shake their hand.
Now new research suggests the common handshake is great if you want to make someone sick. Infectious disease experts have a better and safer solution.
"Rather than replace the handshake with something else that has contact, probably the better approach to keep patients safe is really not to do it at all," said Dr. Mary Lou Manning from Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology.
The study said the handshake transmits double the amount of bacteria than a high five, and the fist bump transmits even fewer.
Hands are the perfect transmitters because people touch everything with them, according to experts.
Doctors said most bacteria on our hands is perfectly safe, but there is always the chance of something more dangerous sticking around unseen.

We met David and Mary Margaret from SV Leu Cat in Brisbane, had lunch, visited the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, and had dinner before returning by train to Manly. They will leave for Los Angeles the next day. It was a gorgeous day and we were able to see lots of Koalas, Crocodiles, Wombats, Tasmanian Devils, poisonous snakes, and Kangaroos. It was a great outing.
November 5-7, 2011
These three days were spent putting items that we want to sell on various websites to advertise them for sale; answering phone calls and showing items to interested parties; determining the best way to get from Brisbane to Sydney to catch our flight home to San Francisco; making reservations for a flight from Brisbane to Sydney; selling our two kiteboards; and researching and making reservations for our Christmas stay in Kauai. We have decided to stay in Manly until November 16, when we return to the US. We have too many valuable items that we need to sell which will require our being available to show them plus we need to be around just in case we can help sell Dream Caper. We are sorry we won't be able to spend time in Sydney this time but 10 years ago we visited Sydney twice on two different trips. We will visit the Gold Coast and Brisbane area, making day trips when we can.

I am trying to model the following sum:
$\sum_{i=0}^{n}{W_i \alpha^{i}}$
where $\alpha \in[0, 1) $ and $W_n$ takes values 0 or 1 and may be modeled as a markow chain or for simplicity as a binary random variable with $P(W=0)=p_0$ and $P(W=1)=1-p_0$
In the special case in which $n->\infty$ and $p_0=0$ the series should converge to $1\over{1-\alpha}$ and I suppose the infinite series will converge to $(1-p_0)\over{1-\alpha}$ when $p_0 \in (0,1]$.
I would like to understand whith what probability the sum above will be greater than a given threshold depending on the threshold itself, on the properties of $W_n$, on $n$ and of $\alpha$.
Is there some relevant theory I could use to model this problem (or a simplfied version of it)?

Comedy actor/writer and director Harold Ramis passed away yesterday at the Age of 69, following a long battle with chronic vasculitis. The disease caused inflammation that altered the walls of his blood vessels, including weakness, thickening, and scarring, which prevented a sufficient amount of blood from reaching his organs and tissues. In fact, Ramis lost his ability to walk after suffering complications from surgery in May 2010, and spent 18 months relearning to how through therapy at the Mayo Clinic, and Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, before suffering a relapse of the disease in late 2011. According to his wife Erica Mann Ramis, he "never recovered from that relapse."
Born in Chicago November 21, 1944, Ramis began writing parodies while attending Washington University in St. Louis and was later quoted as stating, "In my heart, I felt I was a combination of Groucho Marx who used his wit as a weapon against the upper classes, and of Harpo Marx's antic charm which made him oddly sexy and allowed him to grab women, pull their skirts off, and get away with it".
He also reportedly admitted to taking methamphetamine in order to fail his draft physical so he could avoid being sent to fight in the Vietnam War.
He then went on to work the "guerilla TV" collective TVTV headed by his college friend Michael Shamberg, at the same time finding other employment for a time in a mental institute, public school teacher and joke writer for Playboy before joining the famed improvisational group Second City in 1974. It was there that he built his lifelong friendships with John Belushi and Bill Murray, later teaming up them with in such movies as "Stripes," "Animal House," "Ghostbusters" and "Ghostbusters II", "Caddyshack," "Groundhog Day," and "Meatballs," etc. as co-star, writer, director and producer.
In addition to his wife Erica, with whom he had two sons, Julian Arthur and Daniel Hayes, Ramis is survived by a daughter Violet, from his first marriage to Anne Plotkin, and two grandchildren.

SUMMERSIDE ã The city has hired a director of communications to better inform the public, municipal departments and city council.
© Mike Carson/Journal Pioneer
Lorri Laughlin has joined the staff of the City of Summerside as the director of communications. The announcement was made Friday by Mayor Basil Stewart, right, and Coun. Peter Holman, chair of the human resources committee.
Lorri Laughlin is joining the city staff after having worked in this field with the Government of Canada for more than 15 years, holding positions with the Privy Council Office, Communications Canada and the Canadian Information Office.
ãThere will definitely be a strong external component and thereãll also be a strong internal component to improve communications between departments and also to council,ã Laughlin said. ãThereãs a lot of support I can give and some advice and trying to set up some communications priorities that council wants to see delivered. Thatãs what weãre here to do, is to fulfill the priorities and the mandate that the mayor and the council have set out. I want to support that.ã
Acting Chief Administrative Officer, Gordon MacFarlane, said the city wants to improve its methods of getting information out to the public.
ãWeãre extremely excited to have Lorri on board,ã MacFarlane said. ãShe brings a wealth of experience and weãre looking forward to her helping us professionalize our communications strategy, get the information out to the public that the public desires, and some of the things that our city staff is doing that we may not be communicating as well as we should be.ã
Laughlin holds a Bachelor of Public Relations Degree, a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Economics and Political Science, and a Diploma in Public Administration.

Helping a new classroom community to grow and take shape in a classroom is different each and every year. Much depends on the variables: the age of your students, their technology skills, your community context and need among others. There are many things to consider. Each community needs to be handled differently, but the goal is the same: allowing the voices to grow in depth and confidence, reaching out for understanding from wherever in the world you may be.
A month into the school year and with most of my students having had their blogs for about two weeks, we are still in the every beginnings of our online work. There are a few key, critical factors which I think are important to consider as a teacher who wants to engage their students using online connections (notice that this is not solely about blogs)
1.) Take the time – Early conversations, halting and difficult as they sometimes can be – matter. Students need to be encouraged and allowed the time they need to explore. Getting a new online space is like moving in to new house. Everything needs to be properly set up and organized. Themes set, widgets organized, blogrolls filled. It is important that students have the time they need to create a space they are happy with.
2.) Be present – As the leader, mentor and educator, you MUST be present in the community. Notice I said IN the community. Be a part of it. Blog yourself. Set a good example. Leave good comments. Write challenging posts for your students. Ask them tough questions. Push their thinking, but do not be above the community of your classroom; be a co – creator of content.
3.) Brag – Show off the blogs of your students to others. I always send a note home to parents with their child's blog URL on it, explain how they will be used in class and tell the parents to check in often to see what their child is doing in class and the work they are concentrating on. They may want to be tough junior high kids, but they are still thrilled to get comments from relatives.
4.) Show off the good stuff – Often I set up a projector in my class and show off some of the best material that has been posted in our classroom over recent days. I want kids to see good models of writing, of creating multi media content and of leaving good comments. I send students to read the blogs of others and ask them to think of what they have learned from seeing others in action.
5.) Realize that not everyone is a blogger – But everyone is talented at creating some type of content. I want the students in my class to try it all – blogging, podcasting, making videos, taking pictures, making animations and on and on. But I don't expect that they will all enjoy or be talented in all areas. I want students to realize their talents and over time, to begin to focus in some areas more than others. I want them to be experts in a few areas, but be willing to take chances in them all.
6.) Teach them to be safe online – I emphasise this right from day one. The content that you place online will most likely always be there. Think before you post. We talk about not sharing phone numbers, email addresses and IM accounts with those people they meet online. We also talk about their own accounts on Facebook and other social sites. I want them to learn good habits not only for the classroom, but for their own stuff as well.
7.) Network your classroom – Find a partner classroom in another part of the world and hook your students together. Blogging is exciting and empowering for students, but a classroom is a closed space and eventually, students will not be as interested blogging if they are only talking to the same people online as in the classroom. Networking your classroom with another country also provides for a lot of opportunity for cultural exchanges and opens students to a more global perspective.
8.) Show the connections – Students like to see how their learning is connected and using different widgets and plugins can help them to see the pieces of their learning go global. My students usually put things like clustr maps so they can see where their audicence is coming from. They also like to post plugins that allow them to follow our flickr photos or Youtube channels.
9.) What's New? – One of the best things I've done on my own classroom blog is to take clips from my Google Reader and place them on our Idea Hive site. Having subscribed to the RSS feeds for all of their posts and placed these feeds in one folder, I also subscribe to the RSS feeds for the comments for each of their blogs and place these in another folder. I then take the code that Google gives me and paste it into a text widget on my blog. This allows the students who come to our classroom blog to see the latest 10 blog posts and the latest 10 comments posted by anyone in the class.
10.) The more channels, the better – Students need a lot of time and experience working online. Using technology in your classroom cannot be a sideline. It cannot be something you have to do as an add on. To be most effective, you need to deeply examine your teaching and think about the pieces you can give up so that you have the time available in your classroom to help your students become effective global communicators.

College Hockey:Denver Wins Shootout Over Holy Cross
Fifth Ranked Pioneers Earn Date with No. 3 BU Tomorrow in Denver Cup Final
DENVER — It took 65 minutes plus five rounds of a shootout, but the University of Denver Pioneers beat the Holy Cross Crusaders, 3-2, to earn a Wells Fargo Denver Cup championship game date with the Boston University Terriers.
Im not real pleased with what our execution was, especially from an offensive standpoint throughout the game, said Pioneer coach George Gwozdecky. [But] we came in with the idea that we wanted to advance to the championship game to defend our championship and weve been able to do that.
The Pioneers started off the scoring a mere 1:05 into the game. Anthony Maiani backhanded a pass from behind the Holy Cross net to Jesse Martin who skated across the crease and tapped it in past Crusader netminder Adam Roy.
Although the Pioneers had a myriad of chances throughout the rest of the period — particularly on the power play, they failed to get another goal, despite outshooting Holy Cross 22-6 in the frame. Perhaps the Pioneers best chance came within the last minute of the period on a power play when Roy lost his stick in the midst of a flurry in front of the net, but DU couldnt convert.
After that first period where they were on the power play for eight minutes and loaded up on shots, the rest of the game was fairly even, I thought, said Holy Cross coach Paul Pearl. They got chances, we got chances and we were able to hang in there.
Indeed, the Crusaders knotted the game at one 6:01 into the second period on a disputed goal. An Everett Sheen backhander hit DU netminder Marc Cheverie, bounced up high in the air and back down to the ice where Sheen got his own rebound and knocked it in past Cheveries right pad. The goal was reviewed to see if it was knocked down by a J.P. Martignetti high stick, but it stood.
However, the Pioneers regained the lead with just 51.3 seconds remaining in the middle frame. Shawn Ostrow took a go-ahead pass from Joe Colborne and roofed a shot over Roys left shoulder from the left face-off dot to make it 2-1 DU.
Holy Cross had a good chance to tie the game up at the 14:19 mark of the third period when Cheverie bobbled a Martignetti shot from the point and almost knocked it in, but Cheverie was able to fall on the puck in the crease.
The Pioneers thought they went up 3-1 about two minutes later on a fluky play. Cody Brookwell tossed the puck back into the Crusader zone from the red line where it hit official Pete Friesmas skate and slid into the net past a diving Roy attempting to get back in his net. However, due to rule 6-18-c-6 in the NCAA ice hockey rule book — which clearly states that [i]f the puck hits an official and goes directly into the net the goal is disallowed — it was deemed to be no goal.
Still, Friesma and his partner Don Adam reviewed the goal to make sure Roy didnt touch the puck as it was going in the net for, if he did, the goal would stand. After at least a good five minutes of review, the no goal call stood.
They were just making sure it was right, said Pearl. If it takes 20 minutes, its worth it to get it right. Thats why they put replay in.
The teams battled back and forth throughout the rest of the third until the Crusaders tied up the game
on a power play tally with 5:21 remaining. Sheen scored his second of the night, roofing a tough angle shot from Mark Znutas past Cheverie, popping the water bottle off the top of the net.
The goal sent the teams to overtime where neither team managed to score. As a result of it being a tournament, the teams then went to a shootout.
The teams were tied after the first three rounds of the shootout — Denvers Luke Salazar and Rhett Rakhshani scored while Sheen and Jordan Cyr scored goals for Holy Cross.
Both teams then exchanged goals, with both DUs Colborne and HCs Brodie Sheahan scoring. In the fifth round, Maianis stick-side shot past Roy sealed the deal for the Pioneers as Cheverie stopped Jay Silvias stick side attempt.
I just gotta make it, said Cheverie when asked what he was thinking after Maiani scored. The time was coming anyway and they were going to score every shot so I had to step up eventually and I failed the previous times and I really didnt want to let my team down.
While Maianis shot won the game, Sheens backhanded 360-degree spin-o-rama goal stole the show for the fans.
Ive been working on [that move] since I was a little kid and Ive always wanted to do it in a game and I just figured, why not now? said Sheen. I probably feel more comfortable with that move than with any other.
Holy Cross will face the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Engineers in the consolation game of the Wells Fargo Denver Cup Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. Mountain, while DU moves on to face Boston University in the championship game at 7 p.m.

Eyelid Tattoos
Eyelid tattoos are a hard tattoo to come by as not many people are getting them. People are fearful of an eyelid tattoo as there are many rumors surrounding the procedures of getting eyelid tattoos. But getting an eyelid tattoo is not to much different than getting tattoos in different areas of the body.
Make sure your tattoo artist is experienced before getting a tattoo on your eyelids. A tattoo artist will also use less potent inks, which will mean a limited color palette. The most common eyelid tattoos are the permanent makeup tattoos, fake eyeball tattoos and lettering across the eyelids.
Symbol tattoo on the eyelid
Lettering eyelid tattoos
Fake eyeball tattoos
Single eyelid tattoos
Eye Tattoos
Eye tattoos are a much different tattoo as the medium is soft and can easily be pierced. Eye tattoos invole a needle with ink.

I have a picture library and I am using unc path to very large files (Like engineering autocad files) that I can't store in SP.
I added a content Query WP and configured it so pictures are displayed with link to file. However, either SP or browser (ie, chrome, ff) is not rendering the url and gives me Invalid URL.
However, I can throw a cewp and html code file share href and it works.
Does it matter what type of page it is where I am throwing the cq web part? both title and pictureLink behaves the same way when they are populated with fileshare link (unc path).
From the pic library, view an item and click on either title (which is populated with file:\server\a\b\c\xyz.xlsx) or the pictureLink resolves the unc path.
So I am thinking either the page type or web part is the issue. Please suggest.
What are my options? kinda on a deadline.

It's been a crazy, frenetic, pulsating, manic year.
In other words, it's a been a major blast.
There's an old saying in the news business: Bad news is good news. Boy, has it been good.
But before all of my media-hater friends get, ah, hateful, let it be said: We … cover … good … news!
Oh, most of you don't remember it, but it's everywhere. And — because numbers don't lie — most of you aren't as interested in it.
Yep. That's you and you and you!
In the old days, we speculated there wasn't all that much interest in good news. But we now have the Web, and we can count the viewership numbers attached to our Web stories.
And bad news is king.
It also should be noted that we don't make up the news. News happens. Sure, some of it is so strange it sounds like we made it up. But then you realize we deal with some folks who are — what did they say in the '60s? — far out!
OK, but back to what I was hoping to get across here. As 2013 closes, I'm thankful for a lot of stuff. Here are a few things:
The Columbian staff
Look, there are lots of folks who work hard at getting you the news each day. People in circulation and production and accounting and advertising. Without them, you don't get to see a newspaper.
But obviously, there is something special about newsrooms. We are the heart and soul of the newspaper. We are — simply put — the reason why there is a newspaper. Sure, we've lost many good staffers to funny-money organizations like government and health care. But many good people have stayed. (And it's not because of the great pay.) Because they've stayed, our community is much better off. Period.
Those we cover
Hey, thanks to all the folks we cover out there. Most of them are politicians. As a community member, I wish they didn't do so much stupid stuff. But (see above) their stupid stuff does make for fascinating coverage.
And don't be fooled, stupid stuff doesn't just come from one corner of our community. Nor has one political party cornered the market on this commodity.
Yes, yes, the M&M boys (County Commissioners David Madore and Tom Mielke) did sort of lead the pack on doing stupid stuff in 2013. Who knew?
Their back-door hiring of State Sen. Don Benton as the county environmental services director — when the dude couldn't tell the difference between compost and calamari — was epic stupid stuff.
Again, thank you, M&M boys and Benton. And I will resist using any Three Stooges references. That would not be fair.
Our readers
Finally, I'd like to thank our readers. When we created our "Don't Do Stupid Stuff" mugs (yes, they've sold out for the fourth time) I committed to meeting as many readers as I could who came in to buy one. I've met hundreds.
Now, I get out into the community more than the average guy, but these interactions were very special. Typically, we hear from our critics (hey, thank you, critics, as well) but the folks who came in to get these mugs were mostly fans, supporters of The Columbian. And most of them read this column.
Yes, we sometimes wonder — with all of the criticism we take for banging away at the bad boys — if there is anyone out there who appreciates us. Well, I'm here to tell you we have fans. Yay!
Virginia Kinnaman, who greets and helps customers when they come into the newspaper, sent me an email on Christmas Eve after dozens and dozens came in for a "Don't Do Stupid Stuff" mug. Virginia wanted to let me know how much she enjoyed the mug experience.
"Observing the interaction with you and the customers has been entertaining & positive!"
Thanks, Virginia. And thanks again to everyone in our community. Now let's get ready to rock 2014!

Probably not, while condo associations may be contending with complex management issues MSN Real Estate reports that condo associations are becoming increasingly aggressive in dealing with them. Operating within the law may be a vicarious situation for condominium management, however, falling outside of the parameters of the law can lead to serious legal matters ultimately affecting the well being of the entire community. Perhaps your neighbor drops your child off from school at your door until you get off from work daily, or you have a visiting nurse or therapist, or perhaps you have fallen down, called someone then blacked out. There are countless reasons why NOT to deny entry across the board to visitors of a community with little or know knowledge of circumstances and apparently the State of Florida has recognized this.
According to Charles B. Jimerson, Esq of Jimerson and Cobb, P.A.:
"Recent changes to the Florida Statutes may require many condo associations to modify their parking management programs. The Florida Legislature enacted House Bill 73 ("HB 73"), effective July 1, 2013, which limits the association's power to suspend unit owners, tenants and guests from using specific common elements under Section 718.303(3)(a), Florida Statues. Among the new changes: an association may no longer suspend the right of owners, tenants or guests from using parking spaces. Until recently, this statute has been a broad source of power for associations to incentivize unit owners and residents to comply with the rules of the association. But the legislature giveth; and the legislature taketh away. So how do these new changes affect the status quo of an association's parking program? Will condo associations be liable for expenses and damages for towing unauthorized vehicles? And how does the condo association comply with the new law, and yet still accomplish the goals of the association? This bLAWg post seeks to answer those questions and more."
Jimerson continues:
"Prior to HB 73, condo associations were statutorily-empowered to take action against owners and/or residents that did not comply with the provisions of the declaration, bylaws, or rules. Sanctions could include suspending, for a reasonable time, the right of a unit owner, tenant or guest to use the common elements, common facilities, or any other association property. See Fla. Stat. § 718.303(3) (2012). But since July 1, 2013, the new amendment to Section 718.303(3)(a) prohibits an association from suspending "the right of a unit owner, or a unit owner's tenant, guest, or invitee, to use . . . parking spaces." Fla. Stat. § 718.303(3)(a)."
With that said, if you are a condo association and your attorney is telling you the association can suspend owners, tenants or guests from parking in the community: you may want to seek a new attorney who keeps up with the changes in the law. No, the condo association or the board are not ogres and there are reasonable concerns for their decisions. Most boards are also not experts and may well need to be educated to prevent lawsuits. There are also legitimate reasons why condominium owners may fall behind. Some of those owners may have carried the community while other owners were undergoing hard times. Despite the horrific economic downturn some citizens in South Florida are at long last recovering from the nightmare. There should not be a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" process to manage condominium communities and burning the bridges between boards and owners. One wonders what has become of the semblance of community in the condominium? Are communities doomed to endure "gestapo" tactics while investing in their American Dream? The idea of a condominium community once was about community, where people banded and actually worked harmoniously together for the benefit of the whole. With an entire legal sector emerging devoted to condominium flagrances on either side, hopefully, a more humanistic process will emerge and we can bring the community back to our condominiums.

Man-Food Watch™ is a series of recipes for armchair tailgaters who want to raise their game when it comes TV sports and eating. Impress the guys with food that's hearty, flavorful, easy to make and usually inexpensive.
The recent deep freeze is in its own way propitious.
What better weather for National Soup Month?
Read on for one of Your Examiner's favorite recipes that uses garbanzo beans (chick peas) in a way that hummus lovers never imagined.
Leverage the Soup Advantage
Here's the thing about soup – it's whole food.
Actually, it's a whole system of whole foods that packs all the nutrients of the constituent ingredients into one pot to make a hot, portable meal that lasts for days in the fridge and freezes for months.
Almost anything you throw in a pot and cover with water can be a soup.
Your taste and appetite determine the ingredients.
In general a soup consists of a protein – meat, cheese or seafood – vegetables and legumes – and seasonings – salt, pepper, herbs and spices – and liquid – water, prepared stock or juice, etc.
Although you can sauté ingredients prior to adding liquid, you don't have to.
And when you taste the soup and the ingredients are cooked to your satisfaction, then you've finished your soup.
Soup is runny. How's it portable?
How many people do you know who would rather die than go without their thermos of coffee for their commute?
Fill the thermos with soup instead, and you see what I mean.
And you can have your cake and it eat, too.
Disposable food containers are cheap.
Freeze your soup in one and take it with you for lunch, so your thermos stays empty for coffee.
Very healthy.
Whole foods in general are very healthy because all of the nutrition the food ends up on your plate.
So when you throw a bunch of stuff in your soup pot and and cook it together, all of the nutrients from all of the ingredients infuse throughout the whole soup.
In addition, most soups are low in fat and high in fiber, so you can eat more for the same colric intake, be much better hydrated and still maintain your weight and even lose some.
As we've been told for decades, nutrition is additive.
Very economical.
Soups are so economical for many reasons, not just because, especially with meat-based soups, you can start with cheaper cuts that tend to be tough because most soups simmer for at least an hour. (Nice juicy tender meat makes for stunningly good stock.)
When you plan to make soup, you can almost always take advantage of the weekly specials.
Usually whatever is on sale will make a perfectly lovely soup.
The bigger your soup pot is, the more you save.
Prepping ingredients is much easier if you don't have to store the leftovers.
So chop, slice and dice to your heart's content.
And homemade soup always saves you money at the lunch counter.
Frozen into individual portions, you can enjoy your favorite soups for lunch or snack with no fuss.
In fact, you may be able to make all your lunches for a whole month on a Saturday afternoon with three big pots and ingredients for three different soups.
Your containers are imminently tradable, too, so that you and the guy with the PBJ can swap occasionally for a change of pace.
GJE's Garbanzo Bean Soup
So, finally, here's a recipe for soup to celebrate National Soup Month with, that warn the cockles of you heart.
It's hearty and flavorful and – a real boon for cold weather – there's no dairy in it to clog up your already grossly offended sinuses.
- 2 cans garbanzos (chick peas) with liquid, 28 oz.
- 8 oz. pepperoni, stick if you can find, diced
- 8 baking potatoes, skins on, diced
- 1 large yellow onion, about 1 pound, diced
- 2-4 bay leaves, fresh if you have them
- 2-4 cloves of fresh garlic, crushed and minced
- 10–12 black peppercorns, whole
- 8 cups water or chicken stock
- Sea salt to taste
- Ground safflower powder or saffron 8–12 threads
- 2 tbsp. extra virgin oil olive
- Fresh cracked black pepper to taste to garnish
Cooking Instructions:
- Add the garlic and onion to your soup pot and cook in olive oil and cook until translucent.
- Dice the potatoes one at a time, very fine, so that they cook and incorporate into the stock of the soup very quickly.
- Add the potatoes to the pot as you finish dicing each one, then add water to cover.
- Add salt, bay leaf, peppercorns and bring to a simmer, then taste often to adjust seasoning to your liking.
- Once you've added all the potatoes and liquid, add the chick peas and the liquid from the cans.
- Add the pepperonim and bring to a slow boil.
- Once the soup starts to boil, add the safflower powder to turn stock medium yellow.
- As soon as the stock thickens – about 15 minutes – reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes to one hour. A rule of thumb is that the longer a soup cooks, then better it is.
- Add more liquid as necessary to keep from the soup from getting sticky.
- Stir often to keep the potato from scorching, but try to preserve the shape and texture of the garbanzo beans for contrast.
What you'll end up with is soup with a texture like cream of potato soup. Your guests will swear you used cream or half-and-half.
Garbanzo bean soup is perfect for serving in a bread bowl or with a salad and maybe crouton.
Need a lighter variation?
For a Cuban version of the same soup, substitute chorizo or linguiça – Portuguese sausage – for the pepperoni and leave out the potato.

I have a broadband connection. The fiber optic cable running from outside to my building is connected to a converter unit. The output of the converter is connected to a router. The router also provides 8 LAN ports to which the computers are connected.
Shortly speaking, all computers are interconnected in a workgroup as opposed to a domain.
My computer hosts an IIS web server using a private or local domain name
I has added
127.0.0.1 www.mydomain.local to the
hosts file in the server
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc so I can browse the site from within the server. So far so good.
How to make other computers connected to my workgroup able to browse my web server via my private local domain
Note: Again, I am a newbie. I have no idea what I should do next.


text: During the previous Cleveland Browns administration, former second-round pick Jabaal Sheard made a name for himself as a pass-rushing DE in the club's 4-3 system. However, as Ray Horton takes over as the new DC -- bringing his 3-4 D with him -- the team first signed Paul Kruger to a massive free agent deal, and has now drafted Barkevious Mingo with their first-round pick (No. 6 overall). One wonders what the plan is with Sheard.

Cliven Bundy and a group of his armed followers have taken up arms against the federal government (in the form of the Bureau of Land Management, a legitimate arm of that government). It may well be that this action is treasonous under the Constitution that Mr. Bundy carries around in his pocket.
If you haven't actually read the Constitution of the United States, you may not realize that it-- along with the laws and treaties created under it-- is the "supreme law of the land." This is known as the "supremacy clause." Here's the actual wording, found in Article VI, Paragraph 2:
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuit thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
Under this clause, laws made by Congress and signed by the president (or passed by overriding a president's veto) are binding on the entire country unless either a subsequent Congress or the Supreme Court revokes them. (Article II of the Constitution outlines how a bill becomes a law.)
When the state of Nevada joined the Union, it agreed to be bound by the terms of the U.S. Constitution, including the supremacy clause. The state, by the way, can-- under Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution-- call upon the federal government to protect it against domestic violence.
Article IV, Section 3, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution says that "The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States...." Laws regarding the Bureau of Land Management were passed by Congress and have not been revoked or overridden. Failure to abide by them makes you an outlaw, not a patriot.
Article II, Section 8 of the Constitution says that Congress can provide for "calling forth the Militia, to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions," which means that the National Guard can be called upon to enforce the laws against those in armed rebellion. The president is the Commander in Chief "of the Militia of the ... States, when called into actual Service of the United States." So if the government called out the Guard against Bundy its actions would be legal.
The United States Constitution is a legal document. The government created by it is, as a result, based on law. Those who win elections get to make the laws. If you don't like a law, you elect enough people to change it. Otherwise, you abide by it. That's how the system works.
When you break the law, you are a criminal. When you stand in armed rebellion against the enforcement of the law, your actions may well be treasonous. According to Article III, Section 3, of the Constitution, "Treason against the United States, shall consist ... in levying War against them...." which includes taking up arms against the legal representatives of the U.S. government. Conviction requires "the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act," but when the act is televised, there are a lot more than two witnesses.

Angela: "I was also confused. I couldn't understand how I could have such a sense of loss for something I never really had."
"It Takes A Village" is the August 12 episode of "Rizzoli & Isles." If you haven't seen this episode, beware of spoilers. "Rizzoli & Isles" airs Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. CT on TNT.
There isn't much of a change in dynamics with Jane being sidelined at the hospital. This is a wasted opportunity. It would be great to see more of Nina, or maybe have Korsak let Frankie take more of a lead than normal. Instead, it's more of the same. The case itself isn't even that interesting. All in all, it's wasted time. There really wasn't anything captivating about the witness or the potentially interesting poison angle. Did you enjoy the case?
It was always difficult to picture how Jane having a baby would fit into the show, so it's not really surprising that Jane lost the baby. Still, it would be great to really focus on Jane dealing with this loss. There isn't any of it really in this episode. The discovery that Angela had a miscarriage allows for Jane and Angela to become closer. It would be great to see more conversations between the two of them where Jane opens up about how she feels because as Angela says, she has been where Jane is now, and no one else has.
Tasha is great during this episode. Her connection with Jane is adorable. They have bonded a lot, so when Jane makes that call about becoming a foster parent, it isn't hard to jump to the conclusion that Jane is calling for herself. It would be interesting to learn if Jane was always thinking of Gwen, or if Jane was truly considering being Tasha's foster parent. Still, as much as Jane and Tasha had great chemistry, having a kid really wouldn't work with the show. The writers can't find a good way to handle Angela sometimes. Do you wish that Jane became Tasha's foster parent?
What did you think of the episode? Leave me your thoughts in a comment below.

Boxscore & Play-by-Play (HTML) / Boxscore (PDF)
LOGAN, Utah - The Fresno State volleyball team (17-11, 11-5) saw its single hold on second place in the MW turn into a tie Saturday night at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.
With its 25-15, 25-18, 25-17 victory, Utah State (18-9, 11-5) handed the `Dogs only their second 3-0 loss of the MW slate with the other at unbeaten and No. 10 Colorado State.
Saturday's outcome also pushed the Aggies into a tie with the `Dogs in the conference standings with four matches to play.
"Utah State played well, but we did little to take them out of rhythm," head coach Lauren Netherby-Sewell said. "Unfortunately, we picked the wrong night to have some of our most reliable passers struggle, and our serving was also off. We didn't create much energy, and our poor play defensively gave a good team extra momentum early. We had some players sick with illness, but that's not an excuse because as a team we didn't show enough mental toughness."
The `Dogs entered the match leading the MW in aces, but were shut out in the category for the first time this season. In contrast, the third-ranked Aggies logged seven aces - the third-highest by a Fresno State opponent this year and tops for a non-five set-match.
Utah State also held Fresno State play to a season-low .080 hitting mark after it entered the weekend ranked second-best in conference play in hitting in 2013 with a .258 average.
Conversely, the Aggies posted a .232 hitting mark, and also held edges in kills (42-32), assists (42-32) and digs (54-45) and fewest service errors (1-2), while the `Dogs held a 6.0-5.0 edge in blocks.
The Fresno State offense ended with one player in double figures in kills and points - senior outside hitter Marissa Brand (13 / 14) - and she paced the team for the eighth and sixth times this year, respectively. The returning all-conference hitter also topped the squad in hitting (.278) for the fourth time in 2013.
On defense, redshirt sophomore Katie Pearson and Maci Murdock led in blocks (3) for the fourth and 14th times this year and second straight match, while freshman libero Maggie Eppright's 16 digs was her 13th match leader this season.
Utah State was led offensively by Rachel Orr (15 kills, .152), Kaitlyn VanHoff (9 kills, .818) and Elle Brainard (8 kills, .143).
Other Aggie stat leaders included Paige Neves (37 assists), Alyssa Everett (3 blocks) and Ashlan Rogers-Court (4 aces, 14 digs).
Saturday's match evened the season series between the two teams after Fresno State won their September meeting in Fresno, 3-1, and also ended the Bulldogs' three-match series win streak.
In the first set, the Aggies jumped out to a 7-0 lead thanks to six straight Bulldog attack errors to start the match. The `Dogs didn't give up and soon cut the lead four points on three occasions at 11-7, 12-8 and 14-10. However, the returning WAC Conference regular season champions ended the period on an 11-5 run that included five kills, an ace and block for the 25-15 victory.
In the second set, the Aggies jumped out to a 7-3 lead, but the `Dogs rallied with three- and four-point bursts to eventually draw even at 12-12 on a kill by Brand. Fresno State later trailed by only one point at 18-17 on an Orr attack error, but after an Aggie timeout, it closed the set with a 7-1 stretch en route to a 25-18 advantage.
After the intermission, Fresno State enjoyed its best start of the night and sported 9-4 and 11-6 leads early in the third set. However, after a Utah State timeout, the Aggies bounced back with a 10-2 stretch to go up, 17-13. After a series of sideouts, the Aggies still held a 20-16 edge, then ended the match with a 5-1 spurt for the 25-17 win.
Looking ahead, the `Dogs return home to host Wyoming (17-13, 7-9) on Thursday, November 21 at 7 p.m.
Next Saturday, November 23, Fresno State caps the home schedule with an 11 a.m. special Senior Day match vs. No. 10 Colorado State (25-0, 16-0) - two hours earlier than originally scheduled to help accommodate the 1 p.m. home football game vs. New Mexico.

Books and journals are the main resources university students use to find information for their course.
Journals contain articles written by and for, university staff and students. Journals are sometimes called serials or periodicals.
What is the Catalogue?
You can find a list of all the books and journals held by UTS Library in the Catalogue.
It's the place to start when you have a reading list. You can search by the title of the book or Journal Title.
If you want to browse for books on a topic use a Keyword search.
How do I find books and journals on the shelves?
Each item in the Library's Collection is listed in the Catalogue and has either a call number and/or a link to a database or electronic resource.
The call number will help you find the item on the shelves.
Call numbers range from 001 to 999 and usually include a decimal point followed by 4 letters or more numbers (they can be quite long!).
Each number represents a broad subject area for example 658 is the number for management; 720 architecture; 346 business law.
Numbers after the decimal points represent a specific aspect of the subject, for example 658 is the number for management and 658.404 is the number for project management.
On the shelves, items are arranged in numerical order from left to right.
Start with the first three numbers, then if there's a decimal point keep moving to the right as the numbers get bigger, until you reach your item.
Location of books and journals
Books and journals are shelved together.
- books and journals are shelved on Levels 3, 4 and 5
- the Law Collection is shelved on Level 3
- Large Size Book Collection is on Level 5
Signage and printed floorplans will help you locate specific books and journals.
Journals and databases
When you know the name of the journal you want to find, enter the Journal Title into the Catalogue and click Search.
If you want to browse for articles without having a particular journal in mind, use Find Articles. Find Articles is a new way to find journal articles and other scholarly information across a huge range of resources quickly.
Journal databases store electronic copies of journal articles. The Library subscribes to over 300 databases for UTS staff and students to use for their teaching and research. Databases are specifically designed for use by university students and staff. You can find databases relevant to your subject and search for journal articles by clicking on Find Databases in the Quick Links on every page of the Library website.
Note: The electronic version of a journal article is equal to the hard copy.
This may be your first time using databases. There are a number of ways to learn how to find information using databases:
- view tutorials in Study Skills
- attend one of the Library workshops
- ask staff for help at the Research Help Desk
Study guides
Guides have been designed to give you a quick introduction to the best resources in a subject area. Study guides list suggestions for Catalogue searching and the most relevent journal databases.

So I have looked everywhere for the solution to this and have tried many things. There is one post on SE related to this and I tried the suggested answer but I am still having problems.
We have a server running Server 2008 R2 Standard x64. I need to increase the space of C: since the free space is running very low. However when I open Server Manager and try to go to the "Disk Management" snap-in it just hangs.
There is a status message on the bottom of the window that says "Connecting to Virtual Disk Service...".
Here are the steps I have taken:
- Ran sfc /scannow
- Set all of the drives to be dirty and rebooted so that they would be scanned
- Executed chkdsk /f /r /b /v on all of the drives.
- Checked for Windows updates (none).
- Verified that the services "Virtual Disk", "RPC Procedures" and "Plug and Play" are all running.
One symptom is that the service "Virtual Disk" does not cleanly shut down. I receive a message about the process being unexpectedly terminated when I try to stop or restart it. Also I cannot find anything relevant in the event logs.
Any ideas or suggestions?

One image was selected for inclusion in the ONWARD '09 Exhibition at the Project Basho Gallery in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, by Peter Barberie, Curator of Photographs at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Alfred Stieglitz Center. Twenty-four images and an artist statement from the China Life 2008 project were selected for exhibition on the Fotomission.org website. The back cover image received an Honorable Mention Award in the 2008 International Photography Awards Competition. Finally, a 2006 image included in the book was selected for inclusion in the 2007 Member's Exhibition at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins, Colorado by Steve Simmons, Publisher and Editor of View Camera magazine.
Michael Flicek began a serious pursuit of fine art photography in 2005. This gave a much needed sense of purpose to his pursuit of photography. Photography, in turn, gave a sense of purpose to his travels. The exploration of beauty and emotion in nature, people, and human design is his quest. His work has won awards in national and international competitions, been selected for juried exhibitions from the west coast to the east coast, and been selected for publication in COLOR Magazine. He has degrees in philosophy and psychology with a doctoral degree in school psychology. He worked as a psychologist in a clinic and schools for many years and in recent years he has worked as an educational researcher in a public school system.
