I want to create unity web-app for my new website.So,is there any up to the mark tutorial.I've read Ubuntu's official tutorial on this topic but that is not even complete.I've developed the code but don't know how to package the code
Actually packaging a webapp isn't really different from packaging any other application. Take a look at resources in this answer and especially at existing integrations, e.g. LinkedIn, Feedly and (shameless plug) This Is My Jam.
Basically, you need
You can generate these files using e.g.
Once you have the files in place, you should be able to generate package using e.g.
If you are using version control such as Git or Bazaar, take a look at git-buildpackage or bzr-builddeb respectively (both available in Ubuntu repository). I've found especially the
I'd take a look at this link: http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/webapps/ seeing it's the official guide.

The Charleston Single House is the most dominant style of house in the historic district. The gable end, or shorter end, faces the street while the house then stretches back onto the lot. The house is one room wide often two rooms deep. There is often a porch, called a piazza in Charleston, on one long side of the house.
The door on the street is confusing to some because it does not lead into the house, instead leading onto the porch. These piazzas were often living spaces when the weather was warm. families might be taking meals, entertaining guests, even sleeping on the piazza. The door kept those activities private and allowed a visitor to knock and announce themselves.
The house is set up this way to take advantage of the sea breeze coming off the ocean. Because the house is only one room wide, the breeze cools the entire house with few doors and halls to hinder its progress. The piazza shades that side of the house from the afternoon sun also helping to keep the temperature down.
The settlers and later immigrants saw these single house designs in Bermuda and Barbados and adapted them for use in Charleston. The earliest existing single house dates from the early 1720's.

Auxilliary battery
I want to replace my e250's internal battery with a higher capacity external pack consisting of at least three NiMH C cells, which should give me about 5,000 MAH and 168 hours of uptime.
I want this setup for community noise data collection where I will log decibels at 1/8 second intervals. I will also record PCM clips of high-noise incidents. I will need to create a RockBox variant for this. I will want to run this application for 24 hours up to a full week unattended.
Should I remove the existing battery? Seems like if I leave it in place, the auxilliary pack will be pushing current through trying to charge it, wasting precious capacity.
Can I even remove the existing battery and then attach the external setup through the USB/dock connection? And if I do this, will I need to use four cells instead of three to bring volts up close to the 5v USB standard?
|[Remove Advertisement]
You'll need to give it close to 5v if by USB. 3.2-4.3 is tolerable over the battery terminal.
Removing the lipoly battery isn't a bad idea if you use USB, but if you do, you'll need to put a resistor across the pin for the thermal sensor. The e200 will not boot unless the thermistor is reporting close to room temp. You can figure out what you need to use by sticking an ohm meter on the battery terminals. IIRC its a 10k thermistor but its been years since I played with the 200 charge circuits so I could be wrong.
I suspect that if you do use the USB port, you'll need to account for additional power losses in the USB voltage regulator. I have no idea what these are like.

Uncle B brought home a special holiday cold from London last week, and I thought just maaaaaaybe I'd avoided catching it.
How bad is it? My skin hurts.
How bad is it? I couldn't even be arsed to take my own picture of wadded up tissues; I pinched this one off the internet. Not that we're posh enough to use actual tissues — it's store brand paper towels for our plebian snouts.
Brits call paper towels "kitchen roll." They call Nyquil "Night Nurse." See? Even in agony, I impart unto you secret expatriate knowledge.
Also, we've invented a thing we call a snot log. We take the empty paper towel tube, stuff it with all the used bits and throw it on the fire. One roll's worth per tube — the finished log weighs about two pounds and burns with a merry light.
Oof. Can y'all make your own fart jokes without me for a while? Ta.

Night Nurse… a very interesting 1931 movie starring Barbara Stanwyck, as a nurse who takes the night shift in the hospital ER. Pre-Code, so it has some surprising elements. Clark Gable plays the villain; there's a doctor character who might as well be wearing a sign around his neck reading "hophead"; the "good guy" is a friendly bootlegger. (1931, remember – Repeal was two years away. One doesn't see many movies made during Prohibition.)

I hope British kitchen roll paper towels are softer than American brands. Your poor snouts! And the neuralgia—that's the worst! A cup of oatmeal in your bath water will help soothe those frayed nerve endings. I put it in a thin sock or a knee-high stocking. I hope you and Uncle Badger will be feeling better soon.

Yes, in winter there is always chance,
For the Devil's deadly friends to dance
And so influenza pirouettes about our rooms
Dancing, prancing, spreading doom.
Influenza here, pneumonia there,
The dancers of death waltz everywhere.
Soon you too are tangoing cheek to cheek
Finally realizing that your chances are bleak
And that you'll dance dance dance until you swoon
And ask the band to play a slower tune-
they'll play a funeral dirge as you gasp for air
But your dancing partner doesn't care
He'll demand a faster beat
Something to sweep you off your feet
So the night's last dance is the Dansa de la Mort
You'll spin faster and faster as your breath comes short
Till finally your breath doesn't come at all
And your dance with death ends when you fall

For those involved in the pet industry or simply love their animals so much that they want to learn everything that they can to care for their animals to the best of their ability, Maddie's Institute is presenting Critical Care of the Sick Neonatal Kitten. The bonus is that the presentation is completely free of charge!
This webcast is scheduled for March 13th at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The presenter will be Dr. Elizabeth J. Thomovsky, a veterinarian and board-certified specialist in emergency and critical care at the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine. Register to attend this free webcast here.
This presentation will include information on:
· Normal findings of healthy neonatal kittens
· Review of diseases of neonatal kittens including clinical presentation/historical signs
· Thermoregulation
· Fluid support
· Administration of antibiotics
· Feeding the neonate
· Orogastric and other tubes
· Monitoring
Since kittens are fragile to begin with – even under any circumstances – they are even more fragile when they end up in shelters orphaned or sick. This webcast presentation will help especially shelter workers and veterinarians to deal with kitten nursery programs. Rescue groups and breeders may also benefit. It is then the hope that the best care possible will be provided for this population of felines. Although this webcast is open to the public and presented for free, it is highly recommended specifically for veterinarians, licensed/registered vet techs, vet students and other veterinary staff.
Those that chose to attend this live event will be entered into a drawing for one of ten Snuggle KittiesTM, which act as a virtual mom with a heartbeat and heat to comfort your orphaned kittens.
As with all of the Maddie's Institute (the academic division of Maddie's Fund®) programs, Critical Care of the Sick Neonatal Kitten is part of an ongoing series of educational programs that they will present in order to provide the most innovative animal welfare information to shelter staff, veterinarians, rescue groups and community members to increase the lifesaving of homeless dogs and cats community-wide.
The presenter, Dr. Elizabeth J. Thomovsky, graduated from the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine in 2001. After she graduated, she completed a rotating small animal internship at the University of Illinois. Then she practiced veterinary medicine in two different small animal general practices in Pennsylvania before completing her residency in Small Animal Emergency and Critical Care in 2008. After finishing her residency, Dr. Thomovsky became a Clinical Instructor in Emergency and Critical Care at the University of Wisconsin-Madison from the period of 2008-2011. In 2011, she became a Clinical Assistant Professor in Emergency and Critical Care at Purdue University where she still teaches.
The doctor's extensive background will be very complimentary for those that want to learn how to care for sick neonatal kittens in risky situations. This free webcast will be most beneficial. Make certain to mark your calendars today so you are able to attend!

Look for something else
By Ms 2 Kitty
from Ohio
Used for heating coffee and warming food. It did a good job for a time. Now the turntable is sporadic and jumpy. The interior rusted quickly and was stained easily. Over all, not the quality I expect from Oster.
Was good while it lasted
By junetoon
from Greenfield, MA
Product worked good until one day it did not. Only had for a year and a half using only to reheat coffee mostly. Never cooked with it except to heat up frozen meals. Maybe that isn't bad for a cheaper microwave but I expected more. All the features worked well and the only complaint I have is it quit too soon.
Poorly made Interior
By Mel
from Dartmouth, Ma
The options for buttons are good, like 30sec quick start defrost ect but the appliance structure was poorly made. You expect moisture inside a microwave and the top of the inside rusted and started dropping chips onto the food!
By disppointed

Two ovens, one at my wife's dad's home one at ours. Only used for heating and short time cooking. Her dad is 89 and my wife and I are the only users of ours. Her dad's the turn table quit just makes noise and jerks. Ours has periodic poor power and takes 2 or 3 extra times to get something heated. Our's is starting to make noise in the turn table but still goes around.

Poor quality
By ap

I purchased this item in the SPRING of 2013. It was just 6 months old when we started smelling burning plastic. Somehow at each use it leaves a burn mark on the inside of the door. By September it started taking longer to warm food. By December it was working BUT NOT WARMING ANYTHING.We were looking for an economical purchase but this was a waste of money.
No Bargain!
By TRocknrun

I bought this microwave 2 years ago, and I thought it was a great deal, because I believe in the club's products. Almost 2 years to the day later, this microwave quit heating. What a disappointment! My last microwave lasted 20 years! No more Osters for me, and the club should quit selling this inferior product.
By Cubby

Used every day, multiple times a day, wheels on turn table break, score plastic liner, insides deteriorates from there. I've had two similar microwave ovens, same thing happened on both after a little over 1 year. WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER OSTER MICROWAVE, PERIOD.
I read the reviews too late
By cookie
from delray beach, fl
If I had read the reviews prior to purchasing I would have know it was a bad decision. No good, never did work right and now, 2 yrs. later it's dead. Very little use, only by myself and now I must buy another one. don't make the same mistake I did.

Problems Installing on FreeBSD4.x using make cmd line variables
Clint Pachl <clintpachl <at> gmail.com>
I am having problems installing nullmailer-1.00 in a command-line-specified directory on FreeBSD4.11 when running `make install prefix=/tmp/nullmailer`. I performed the configure/make/install process using both /bin/sh and /bin/csh shells with the same results. As a test, I performed this exact process using sudo source code and it worked as expected, so I'm pretty sure it's not my make binary or configs. The process outlined below works perfectly in Slackware and OpenBSD. # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local # make # make install prefix=/tmp/nullmailer (at this point everything is under /usr/local/) # make install-root (target, install-root, fails because it cannot find files in /tmp/nullmailer) WORKAROUND (csh) # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local # make # setenv prefix "/tmp/nullmailer" # make -E prefix install # make -E prefix install-root I guess I'm just curious why make's command line variables are essentially ignored, while it acknowledges environment vars? - pachl(Continue reading)

For the fourth straight year Mississippi State will play in an NCAA Regional.
The Diamond Dogs will learn their destination at 11 a.m. today on ESPNU.
Unlike last year, MSU's road to Omaha will not begin in Starkville, as the Bulldogs will be away in one of 16 regional sites that were announced last night.
Last season, State welcomed Central Arkansas, South Alabama and Mercer for the Starkville Regional, going 3-1 before sweeping Virginia on the road in the Charlottesville Super Regional. The Diamond Dogs went on to the College World Series from there, ending as the national runner-up.
Mississippi State has been projected as a No. 2 seed in several NCAA Regionals by various websites that cover college baseball. The most likely destinations for the Bulldogs appear to be Indiana, Louisiana-Lafayette, Miami or Louisville.
There is also a possibility of a return to Tallahassee, where the Diamond Dogs were ousted in 2012 despite never even facing host Florida State.
But no matter which NCAA Regional MSU ends up in, going on the road may not be such a bad thing.
The Bulldogs have played much better on the road down the stretch than they have at home. State was 15-10 away from Dudy Noble Field overall on the year including a 12-3 mark in the final 15 outings away from Starkville.
For whatever reason, Mississippi State just seems to play more carefree on the road – which has helped its offense, especially. It also doesn't hurt that the Diamond Dogs have a better chance at hitting home runs away from the spacious expanses of Dudy Noble Field.
Return to Omaha?
When hired in 2009, John Cohen vowed to bring his alma mater back to baseball prominence. The first two years were a struggle as Cohen revamped the roster and missed the SEC tournament entirely.
But the last four seasons have been some of the program's best.
It all began with a Super Regional berth in 2011 followed by the SEC tournament title and another regional appearance the next year. 2013 saw State attain new heights, finishing with a program-best No. 2 national ranking.
The Bulldogs began this year with plenty of high praise and have underachieved by some of their preseason expectations.
Mississippi State lost nine players to professional baseball off last year's College World Series team. But there is still a multitude of talent remaining, and this time of year it is all about getting hot at the right time.
The Diamond Dogs are playing their best baseball of late, and if they can keep that up, another run to Omaha isn't out of the question.

We've been looking for a deep V-back dress to show off the hours we've spent toning our trapezii and the rest of those muscles in our backs. And we've found it in this Pins & Needles Backless Lace Dress ($69)! Crafted from delicate lace, this flirty frock complements our strong shoulders and healthy posterior. We think it's the perfect gift to ourselves for keeping strong through all those sore muscles and creepy conversations with the gym rats. That right there requires a different kind of mental fortitude.
Omg love this dress

Amy shared with me some positive parenting tips in this interview.
What are some quick and easy ways to spend time together as a family playing?
The quickest and easiest way to play with your kids is to simply follow their lead and get into their world. If they are playing with blocks on the floor or shooting hoops in the driveway, join them. The key to success is making play part of your daily and weekly routines – not something that only happens on rare or special occasions. Schedule one-on-one playtime each day with your kids - even just 10 or 15 minutes - and you'll see them beam with joy. Be sure to schedule family playdates on weekends to remind yourselves how much fun you have together as a family.
With summer just around the corner what are some tried and true as well as unique ideas for family play?
Schedule things like backyard campouts, beach days (with a sandbox and kiddie pool if you're inland) and lemonade stands. Work with your kids to create a Summer Activity Jar. Encourage your kids to write their ideas for summer fun activities and put them in a jar they decorate. Make sure the activities are free (or fall into an agreed price range) and doable on a whim. Have each child write the same amount of activities so there are just enough to take you through the summer. Each week, day, or whenever your schedule permits, take turns choosing an activity for summer fun. For ideas for summer activities in your area, check out the Active Family Project Activity Finder (http://www.activefamilyproject.com/activity-finder/Index.aspx)
One way I like to change things up and get the family playing together is to move toys around and use different ones at different times of the year. What tips do you have to make old toys and games new again?
Rotating toys weekly, monthly or seasonally helps kids appreciate the toys they have and reduces the sense of "overwhelm" from too much stuff. While it sounds counterintuitive, when kids have too many options for play, they bounce from one thing to the next and eventually get bored.
By limiting the available toys, kids will become more deeply engaged in what they're playing with at the time and they'll create new ways to play with their "old" toys making the play even more fun. Clean up will also go more smoothly as there aren't as many toys to pick up!
Why is it so important for families to play together?
Playing WITH our kids builds emotional connections and fills their hard-wired need for our positive attention. As parents, we spend much of the day telling kids what to do or not do…which makes the situation ripe for power struggles. Adding intentional time to play each day - even just 10 or 15 minutes – fosters emotional connections and actually makes kids more cooperative at other times of the day since it eliminates the need for negative attention-seeking behaviors. I call play the "secret sauce" for better behaved kids! While we still have to check off our to-do lists, scheduling some playtime into each day will work wonders for happier and more cooperative kids!

Siddiqui, Muhammad Rehan Ul-Haq (2004) CRUSTAL EVOLUTION OF CHAGAI RASKOH ARC TERRANE, BALOCHISTAN, PAKISTAN. PhD thesis, University of Peshawar, Peshawar.
The Chagai-Raskoh arc terrane occurs in the western part of Pakistan. In the regional geotectonic scenario this arc terrance belongs to an ancient Tethan convergence zone. Which was initiated probably during Early Jurassic, due to an intra-oceanic convergence in the Ceno Tethys. The are terrane exhibits spectacular field exposures of interstraified volcanic and sedimentary rocks, intruded by large plutons. The sedimentary rock formations from the late Early Jurassic to Recent arc well preserved, which represent excellent manifestations of sedimentary evolution from late Early Jurassic pelagic sedimens, through diversified varieties of Cretaceous to Oligocene shallow marine limestone, shale and sandstone deposits and Miocene onwards terrestrial sediments. The sedimentation in the arc terrane is interrupted by several episodes of magmatism that occurred during Cretaceous to quaternary. The Cretaceous and Paleocene volcanism is dominated by vbasaltic-andesites with minor basalts and andesites with their volcaniclastic counterparts, whereas Eocene onwards volcanism is generally dominated by andesites with minor dacites and their volcaniclastic equivalents. The mafic mineralogy (augite-biotite), anorthite contents (An68-15) and phenocrysts to groundmass ratios (20:80-45:55) in the volcanics rocks generally show progressive evolution towards younger volcanics.

Yes, vaginas are totally awesome: tight, wet holes that seem to perfectly fit your dick. And mouths! Yeah, those are pretty cool, too! But if you're looking for something a little more exotic and a little off the beaten path, so to speak, then maybe it's time you tried something new: a pretty girl's feet! If you've never had a woman's arches pressing down on your throbbing cock, then you just haven't lived yet! There's a quiet crowd that already knows about the joys of foot fucking; these ladies want to welcome you into their fold and they're more than happy to show you around!
This foot lovers series rolls along with the OK entry at hand. The camerawork isn't the best in places, but foot fans always want to check these out for the attention given the feet.
Presley Hart sticks her ass in the air and talks about how much she doesn't like anal sex while getting asked rapid-fire sexual questions by the cameraman as he shoots closeups of her feet. Hart uses newsprint to dirty her feet and a jackrabbit vibe in her twat ... and then Eric John's dick in her pussy. Gia Steel hails from Massachusetts and has a cute, willing smile. Steel uses a vibe on her snatch and puts it between her feet for a bit. She has a peeling bandage on her heel seen while she shows off her arches in one segment. Uh, yuck?
Suzanne Kelly pretends to webchat and shows off her feet and her asshole. In her sex scene, Evan Stone pretends to be a German general holding her hostage. Getting a footjob from her is how he makes her talk, along with some OK vag.
Cherry Torn enthuses about having a tongue between her toes while she plays with her pussy. Torn sucks her own toes with gusto. She points her red polished toenails at the camera enough times to titillate foot fans, and John enjoys his time with her feet and her pussy.

I have a question regarding copying cells from one sheet to another using VBA.
Question Background:
Sheet1 of an excel spreadsheet contains headers and a number of test observations from multiple test subjects. Each row is an observation of one trial per subject. Each test subject has a static number of observations, i.e. 15 rows. I need to select an individual cell(s) from a specified row(s) and copy them to sheet2 of the same workbook into 1 row per subject. Sheet 2 will contain headers as well. Being new to VBA, and to programming/scripting in general, I'm having some issues wrapping my head around on how to do this. Below is a similar example of the data that I am trying to manipulate. The data set below contains 5 columns. The subject numbers are 1111 and 2222. Each heading of Variable() contains 1 letter, e.g. VariableOne = "a", VariableTwo = "b", etc.
Subject - VariableOne - VariableTwo - VariableThree - VariableFour
1111 - a b c d
1111 - e f g h
1111 - i j k l
1111 - m n o p
2222 - a b c d
2222 - e f g h
2222 - i j k l
2222 - m n o p
For example, row 2 (due to headers) of sheet 2 will include the subject number 1111 and values "m" from VariableOne, "f" from VariableTwo, "c" from VariableThree, and "l" from VariableFour. Row 3 of sheet 2 will contain subject #2222 and the values listed in the same position as subject 1111 (the values will be different but their position within the data set will be the same).
I think the code should include 2 loops; one to iterate through subjects and the other to iterate through the actual data. I'm not really sure as to how to go about doing this so if anybody has done this before, I would appreciate the help.
Additionally, I've just gone through the book "Microsoft Excel VBA programming for the absolute beginner", which was a nice introduction to VBA for excel but it didn't help me with formulating any solutions for my personal VBA/excel needs. Does anyone know of a better source, such as a book, to become more acquainted with the VBA scripting language for excel?

Ayelet Rose Gottlieb: Some Kiss
Some Kiss
Ayelet Rose Gottlieb (voice)
Upto Here | From Here (Arogole Records – AR 561)
Ayelet Rose Gottlieb (voice), Avishai Cohen (trumpet), Loren Stillman (saxophones), Anat Fort (piano), Ed Schuller (bass), Take Toriyama (drums, percussion, toys).
Composed by Ayelet Rose Gottlieb. Lyrics by Rumi..
Recorded: Kaleidoscope Sound, Union City, New Jersey, December, 2005
Rating: 92/100 (learn more)
It's an impossible task to catalog and order the many sultry moments in the history of female jazz vocals. I'm thinking back to an award ceremony later in Lena Horne's career when, during her acceptance speech, Horne accompanied the phrase "when it comes" with a naughty gesture employing the awarded trophy. There was also a 10-second period when time stopped as Nora Jones described the joys of stretch jeans during a show in Boston....
Uhh...what was I talking about??
Right! Ayelet Rose Gottlieb! Employing the words of the Persian poet Rumi, Gottlieb has constructed the sensual jazz delight of 2009. Loren Stillman's sax and Avishai Cohen's trumpet set the mood with some slightly dissonant, long tones that interact in a call & response manner with Gottlieb's sensual-by-way-of-Rumi vocals. Gottlieb manages to amp up the dissonance by singing unison lines with the horns, the result of which is a kind of edgy shimmer. As the piece progresses, the complement of her band comes in to add to the celebration of sensuality. By the time we're dealing with seawater that "begs the pearl to break its shell," the direction and final destination are quite clear. What else is clear is that you probably have not heard a jazz CD as quirky as this in a long, long time.

This question already has an answer here:
- Installing ubuntu onto my 13 year old PC 2 answers
Since I loaded ubuntu 12.4 LTS I can no longer get into windows XP. When I boot the computer Windows XP goes through its sequence until it shows boot from CD/DVD then the screen comes up to chose ubuntu or windows xp but the arrow keys do not respnd and ubuntu opens. Also I am not sure if I need the 320 updates the update manager says are available. They will not install anyway. I am a rookie when it comes to computers. What are my options? I would like to have a dual boot computer with ubuntu and windows xp. Any help would be appreciated.


text:
Pretty simple and very confusing. In order to get the @ to respond I have to hold it down for 1 second before anything happens and then delete all of the extra characters that have been typed. same goes ' obviously. It has nothing to do with shift.
I thought maybe it was my keyboard so I tried a different keyboard and the same problem and my keyboard in a different computer without any problems. This is hugely upsetting whilst trying to program anything..
Any ideas then?

Most of the longtimers on the Studio City Neighborhood Council remained on board after Thursday afternoon's election, and a few new faces were voted onto the Council in part because of the Save Coldwater Canyon activist group that formed to stop the Harvard-Westlake parking structure proposal.
Brandon D. Pender, a recent appointee who helped on one of the most successful Night Out events in L.A.'s history last year, was out-voted for the Employee/ Independent Contractor Seat by two newcomers Alex Izbicki and Lawrence Beer, who both spoke against the Harvard-Westlake expansion.
(By the way, I was a pollworker and was at the polls for the entire voting period. It was a great way to see many friends in the community, and also give some of the insight into the voting.)
Many people came in specifically asking to vote for Brandon Pender, just as many people came in to vote for "Save Coldwater Canyon" (which was not a vote on the ballot).
What most people were unaware of, is that you could only vote in categories you were eligible to vote in (seven in all, very color-coordinated). That process kept people from voting in all categories. This council approved the "honesty" procedure, so that if you said you were a Residential Homeowner or a Renter or an Employee, we didn't have to verify it, but they did require that every person fill out a registration form.
So, people who said they were an Employee, for example, of Harvard-Westlake School were allowed to vote only in the Employee category (and that did not seem to affect the election.)
There were issues about the Service Organization category because at the Council meeting the night before, the Council rejected adding Save Coldwater Canyon (savecoldwatercanyon.com) to the list of approved community groups. As a pollworker, there were mentions of other major omissions, such as the Village Gardeners (www.thevillagegardeners.org) (which helped put on a nice free-tree giving event along the river), Save L.A. River Open Space (savelariveropenspace.org) and UPARS (The UFO & Paranormal Research Society that meets at the Unitarian Church once a month with about 80 people—more than an average Council meeting.) The list is usually updated once a year, and it was too late to add new names before the election is what the council decided.
Frankly, many of the people who said they were there for Save Coldwater Canyon could also find another group on the list that they were also affiliated with: they have a child going to one of the local schools, they are member of a church or temple, they help with the animal adoptions or are a member of the Studio City Residents Association.
When the voters were first asked if they were involved in a Service Organization, they answered "No" until they reviewed the list and realized they were a part of one of the groups.
However, nothing changed in that category, where longtime members Remy Kessler and Richard Niederberg have the two seats on the Council in Service Organizations. Richard Adams, who was their sole challenger, drew 81 votes while Kessler got 133 and Niederberg got 165 votes.
The two voters who insisted on voting as Save Coldwater Canyon members and were eligible for a total of five categories received Provisional Ballots that can be counted if there is a resolution with the city Department of Neighborhood Empowerment over their eligibility.
The only race that could possibly impact in is the Business Representative category where incumbents Rita Clare Villa (61 votes) and Scott Ouellette (60) easily stayed on while newcomer Steve Quat received 41 votes and got on the board beating Sako Karakozian with 39. If those two provisional ballots were for this category (and I don't know that they were) and they were for Karakozian, it could throw that race for the third spot into a tie.
The Residential Renters category was the most crowded category, and incumbents Brian Mahoney (34 votes), Lana Shackelford (32) and Jane Drucker (32) won handily while the other four challengers barely mustered half that each. (At least two of the voters were turned away to vote in this category because they were renters in nearby Valley Village and were at the wrong election site.)
The Homeowners seats went to all incumbents, including president John Walker (138), vice president Lisa Sarkin (164), Gail Steinberg (170) and Denise Welvang (127). Seraphine Segal dropped out of the race but too late to be taken off the ballot and received 37 votes while Howard Gillingham received 12 votes.
Gillingham also issued a challenge to the entire election that was filed with DONE which claimed that an improper flyer and mailer with the incumbents on it was creating "ambiguity as to whether SCNC resources were used, no matter how inadvertently, to prepare, mail or distribute the bulletin e.g. were mailing SCNC mailing lists used." (SCNC members said that no council funds were used, and that flyers were properly distributed.)
Gilligham's complaint continues: "The Bulletin is to put all candidates, including this challenger, at a distinct electoral disadvantage. Note: I use my additional words here to supplement the remedy section below. I do not know if there is an easy remedy to this problem. Assuming without knowing, there has been wide distribution of the bulletin, damage is done and curing it is difficult. The solution needs to be the product of wiser heads than me, though I do have a go at it below. This is a mess."
His remedy is to hold the elections again.
Two unopposed races included Lisa Cahan Davis for the At-Large seat (306) and Youth Seat Jon K. Epstein (4). Cahan Davis's race only had 50 ballots and every voter could get an At-Large ballot, so one of the pollworkers had to run out to print up many more pink copies of the ballots. The Youth Seat could only be voted on by those stakeholders who were 15 to 18 and that is significant, because last election the Youth member ran unopposed, but didn't vote for himself and therefore received no votes and wasn't elected onto the Board.
"I wasn't going to let that happen to me," young Epstein said, who was voting along with his mother (who couldn't vote directly for him, but is owner of Vitello's Restaurant).
It was nice to see familiar faces such as Los Angeles City Councilman Paul Krekorian, actors Mike Farrell and Shelley Fabares, many realtors, business owners and fellow church members at the polls. Working the polls is like being a greeter at a community party, and it truly was a lot of fun.
It wasn't the largest turnout for Studio City, but the total of 367 voters was far more than 2012 of 292 voters. There were 1,007 ballots of the various categories to count.
(On a personal note: Although it's tough to get people to volunteer for this, the polls were only four hours long rather than last time's six hours, and those two extra hours for example would have allowed teachers at the school, and parents picking up their kids, to come in to the voting booth. There were at least half a dozen people who came at 2 p.m. and said they could not return to vote later. Also, the ballot process is complicated, and people often didn't know what to do with their many papers. People seemed surprised and dismayed that we took the voters "at their word" about their eligibility for the various categories, but it seemed that most were honest and a verification process would have been prohibitive and ridiculous.)
The vote itself seemed fair, and there are some new faces on board, and you don't have to be elected on to be involved: go to studiocitync.org or come by the Studio City CBS Radford lot on the third Wednesday of every month.

Review: Lolli's Passion Pop Stimulating Elixir
Posted: May 25, 2004 at 12:00 AM (Last Updated: May 25, 2004 at 2:18 PM)Lolli's Passion Pop is a step in the right direction for the brand. The passion flavor is light and clean with a very mellow herbal flavor. The beverage is definitely easy to drink and provides a nice change from t stronger tasting soft drinks. In addition, the packaging is eye catching and provides a retro but hip image. The green fruit covered label works well and hints that the product will be sweet and refreshing. Overall, this product definitely has potential -- we hope it does well.

June is National Rose Month and roses are certainly a favorite garden plant for Chicagoland gardeners.
The easiest roses to grow in Chicagoland are the hardy rugosa roses and shrub roses. That is not to say that other types such as hybrid teas, are not suitable, but for beginner gardeners looking for color all summer, the roses offered at Chicagoland's independent garden centers are truly easy-care and rewarding for the grower.
According to Robin Smith, Horticulturist at Pasquesi Home & Gardens in Barrington, the Knock Out® Rose is the most requested shrub rose and certainly one of the easiest to grow. Through June 17, Pasquesi is offering Single Knockout Rose in 3-gallon container for $19.99, reg. $34.99. The second most requested are Drift Roses, low growing groundcover roses, available in seven colors. Smith recommends caring for roses with a winter mulch and spring application of Bayer All-In-One Rose & Flower Care. This three-in-one formula contains fertilizer, disease and insect control for a carefree garden for the rest of the summer.
The following garden centers have extensive rose collections for sale:

Acidic discharge from eyes
Hello all.
Anyone else with Sjogren's have an acidic discharge from their eyes?
Eye drops do nothing to help. My dry eyes feel like grit is in them.
I have a lot of trouble reading or writing or using the computer.
My eyes also hurt most after dark, even after a nap (so it's not like it is accumulated stress from the daytime).
The acidic discharge started about 10 years ago, before I had sore eyes or trouble reading/writing. Sjogren's was diagnosed 2 years ago but I had it for 2 years before that. The opthalmologists who examined me all kept insisting I didn't have "Dry Eye" because I didn't have damage to the structure of the eye, but couldn't explain my eye pain. Finally I was sent to a rheumatologist who within minutes diagnosed Sjogren's. I later was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea (stopped breathing 76 times an hour in my sleep test), so am using a CPAP now and getting better sleep...which I hope might eventually allow my body to heal itself and settle the immune system down enough to get rid of the Sjogren's (fingers crossed!).
Any thoughts?
