Wished I read the alert. Just got taken when I was only suppose be charged for shipping of $4.95 on a free trial bottle.~ Got charged twice even when I tried to cancel on the automated recording and it confirmed the cancellation. No one ever answers when I call. Besides getting charged 4.95 x 2, additional charge of 38.71 was taken from them also.

Looks like they got me.
$6.95 Initially
$113.06 another payment in Oct which I knew would be charged after the trial period
$0.54 end of Oct - don't know what this is for
$103.00 in Nov - Don't know what this is for.
I have just notified Westpac. They are looking into it
Also sent an email to the AGC company to ask for a refund.
Wondering if I should just report my card as lost.
Very Sus!

do not use authenticgarciniacambogia.net/promotion/uk!! I placed on order for what i thought was a 2 weeks free trial i do not remember a terms and conditions but there must have been one i had an extremelly basic email with confirmation orders for 2 products on the 1/2/14 recieved them on the 5/2/14 and was then debited £140 on the 17th which absolutely mortified me. I rang up the complained they didnt understand complaint and tried to sell me another product. After getting rather irate they offered me 25% refund which i stated was not good enough i wanted the website reference# of call name etc rang up again today to be told i have already accepted the 25% refund and it was recorded. I asked to speak to the highest member of staff which apparently were all at lunch. I got rather upset and told them yhey need to review that recording as i said no such thing. After 10 mins on the phone i got offered a 50% refund and am waiting to see what happens : (

Do not order from powergarcinia.com, I foolishly did not read and test phone numbers: the contact number I finally called is listed to America's Hottest Talk. there are two sites I would not recommend as they both have the same contact number.
Do not order from justgarcinia.com as they have the same phone number for a contact number which is America's Hottest Talk. I am in a battle right now with them and have also contacted the local police in Lewiston, Maine which is where this product and call service is out of on 41 Canal Street. The support contact for both is in London England and one has a support address, the other does not.

Blocking one "trader" on your credit card is not effective. Some of this crowd operate as multiple traders. I.e. if you order two items it will show up as two different traders in your statement. The only safe way is to raise this with your credit card provider block the card and re-issue with different number. Maybe a pain if you use the card for regular payment like phone plan etc but the only way to be safe.A whole bunch ( in excess of 20 operating from just two mail drop addresses) of companies were created In UK predominantly with the name including "Nutra" during the last quarter of 2013.uk registered companies with a single US director of ambiguous address in US. Web domains purchased via Panamanian company whose purpose is to obscure ownership of the domain. Offer of free sample (pay postage only)then hidden small print saying that you will also be charged full price (lot more than your local pharmacy) for ongoing supplies starting before you even receive the initial trial/free bottle.

Please post details of the companies in London. I am tracking their spoof emails through a Saudi Arabian posting address being routed through a Mexican Server, their website IP is 22.214.171.124 ownerid: MX-USCV4-LACNIC. The companies I can find are all registered by a "reputable" chartered accountant who's practice is on the same street as the Finchley Mosque that the 7/11 bombers attended. This is starting to look like a money laundering operation rather than a simple scam. I would be very interested to know who the American director is (perhaps an attorney specialising in offshore shells by any chance). Department of Homeland Security and MI5 will be on these guys cases if we the well intentioned general public can give a helping hand.

I bought this product and similarly to stories before was charged £140.00 after two weeks. The difference is that it happened only yesterday I called to ask for the reference number to be able to return the product but was refused any help with reputed explanation of terms and conditions that after 14 days there is no possibility of returning the product and getting a refund. The advertisement appeared as one of those sponsored Facebook pages. I was also assured that the money was taken from my account several days earlier but in fact the money was taken yesterday after my conversation with the customer services . After this conversation i called my bank to block the payment but I was I informed that it will not be immediate and any payments requested after the midnight will be refunded.
I did not received any email with confirmation but only a message at the end of the buying process photo of which I luckily took.

I ordered a free trial of x1 bottle of Garcinia Cambogia for $2.95 freight….only to be charged $89 on my debit card. I rang the 'company' to demanded for my money back a person i spoke wih said wrong number since then i have been trying to get them on phone or email but to no avail and I havent even received the product yet?! The only receipt I have from them states $2.95 charged on my debit card. PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME TO GET THEIR CONTACT NUMBER THIS PEOPLE ARE COMPLETE SCAM.
Posted: Mar 1, 2014 by an anonymous user from: Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
I just spoke to a company that we had the problem with. Next to the charge on our statement was a telephone number 888-285-2033. I called and they explained that the 2.95 is a trial cost. They send you a months supply and if you don't call to cancel your new "monthly subscription" then you are charged for that first bottle. They have cancelled our subscription and have been told they will credit half of the 89.00. I will know in a few days. Our credit card company told us that if there are any future charged, we can dispute and will not have to pay. If it sounds too good to be true........live and learn. Good luck.

File with the Better Business Bureau they have helped some people get refunds. The Atlanta officehsad over 350 complaints.
Posted: Sep 18, 2013 by an anonymous user from: Burlington, Vermont, United States
I also ordered this product. When I ordered it I thought I was only paying $2.95 for 2 Bottles, as the ad said. Then I checked my Bank Account and they charged me $159. So I called them on it and they said when I receive it to send it right back. So I did expecting a full refund. After numerous times of calling them and getting the run around, they told me they only refund Half of the money which is $79.50. I am in the process of having my Bank fight them for the rest.

Posted: Apr 20, 2013 by an anonymous user from: Reston, Virginia, United States
I, too, received the Garcinia Cambogia Fat Buster link from a friend. I foolishly thought it sounded great and selected the option to order 3 bottles @ $31 each (w/ 2 additional bottles free) for a total of 5. Then they ask for your credit card information on a secure page https:offer.my-secure-page.com/fatbuster982/receipt.php. I then hit "submit", but rather than having the next screen asking me to review my order it automatically bounced to an order confirmation page charging my card an extra $70 dollars AND with small print on the bottom advising that they were automatically signing me up for YourTrimTrainer.com and charging my card $9.47 monthly. I called and they refuse to cancel the order, but offered me a discount of %30 which is still more than the advertised price of the product. A total hoax and rip-off. DON'T ORDER THE GARCINIA CAMBOGIA / COFFEE EXTRACT OR RASPBERRY KETONES FROM THIS SITE that first shows the Dr. Oz program on the product.

It was purely a scam. The same incident happened to me as well. First the email seem to come from a friend, so I thought it was genuine and order the product free at $2.95, and then order some other product at a discount. It was terrible, my credit card was debited by the amount of about $1300. When I tried to stop the banker from debiting the amount, I was told that it was already debited from my account. I was cheated and it was purely a scam.After a lapse of few months, the same company concerned, with phone No. (888)373-3911 with email address support @pgcsupport.com and with title "Puregarcinia" email to me again, stating that I have Annual Subscription of the product, and again deduct my mastercard amount of $1300.This is really a scam and cheating through internet. I was again cheated thru internet.I didn't make any order at all, yet they have my credit detail and debit my money.I have no other choice and finally have to close my credit account.

I believe this is another fraudulent website.
I placed an order today. After I hit proceed order, the page blanked out. Stupidly, I went back and re-entered, resubmitted my order. Again, page blanked out.
No email or order confirmation. I checked my online banking account and it was already processing two payments for these "orders". I quickly called my bank. Depending on your bank's policy, they will direct you to claims department and hopefully will work with you to refund the monies. I suggest also closing that bank card, as I did, since this information was submitted over the web and could further be used by these scammers.
The webpage looked so legitimate too. However, I should have looked further. Their contact info was very vague. I couldn't even determine what country or phone number I could contact. Grrr. Well lesson learned. Best thing to do is contact your bank immediately.

That website is a fraudulent site as well as a huge scam. I was browsing a site to learn about Garcinia Cambogia when a pop up offer for a FREE BOTTLE (which had a limited supply, supposedly).
Nothing in this world is FREE. When I received the bottle in arrived in a plain padded envelope with no Packing Slip enclosed with it nor was there any other information. I thought it was strange, but put it out of my mind.
Today, approximately 1 month later, I got a call from my Credit Card Fraud Dept. checking into a$89.99 charge from Pure Garginia which they said came through at 3:00 a.m. I explained the circumstance of this item (A Free Offer) and they will not pay the charge and are cancelling my Credit Card Number and re-issuing a new card.
Thank heaven for their alertness. Besides that, they stated that a subscription was agreed to and it would be a monthly charge. I can't believe how Stupid I could be by not checking them out ahead of time.
I hope I won't be bugged by them for payment because they can sue me before I will let them use their misleading promotion to get me to honor my SUPPOSED SUBSCRIPTION.

We are a (legitimate) seller of Garcinia Cambogia and have been getting a number of calls from people looking for the product they ordered. Problem is - we never sold it to them. What seems to be happening is that people are browsing the web looking for this product, being infected and looking at other sites. They're then somehow being redirected back to the infected site to purchase. When their product fails to shows up (its amazing how long people will wait!)they begin calling any company that displays a telephone number in their ad.
We've been directing people to call their bank and have the transaction flagged - the name appearing on credit statements seems to be simply "Garcinia Cambogia".

The walk up to the site is steep. It was very crowded and they were restoring most of it. There was scaffolding and men all around the site with power tools. It really detracted from the historical value of an ancient site when you hear jack hammers and sanders being used.
Developing country. Will be on the Euro next year, but our cab driver took Euros from us for the fare. He took us around town for 50 Euros and spoke enough English to give us a guided tour of the entire city. The Old city is expensive. Avoid eating or shopping there if you can.
Wasn't my cup of tea. The leaning tower of Pisa leans. Okay. Big deal. I could see that on a postcard. Florence was better. Shops, restaurants, and historical churches. Great if you like leather goods.
Too expensive and crowded for me. It was interesting and nice not to worry about transportation to and from the site. The crowds were so thick it was hard to keep up with the tour group. They took us to some mosque for some reason and to a carpet manufacturing place. This carpet place is a rip off. It is basically a sales picth for the company and the carpets are expensive. Carnival must get some sort of kick back from this vendor. Just stay on the bus.
Probably the worse port. The French lived up to their reputations and were very rude especially if you don't speak French. It was not English friendly like the other ports. There is a lot of crime, but I understand they are trying to clean it up. There are some nice areas down by the waterfront, but don't stray too far away. We went a couple of blocks and found ourselves in a real bad area.
Took a sight seeing bus around town. An interesting city and historical places to see. It was very crowded on the bus and in town. Thank God we didn't have to drive on the streets. Crazy drivers. Careful crossing the street.
The port was actually Messina, but it's not listed on the drop down menu. We took a cab to Tourmina about 20 minutes away. Most shops are closed in Messina on a Sunday. You have to go to Tourmina to do anything. Lots of shops, a beach, and a view of Mt. Etna.
Most interesting city I've ever been. No need for an excursion. Take the "People Mover" train for 1 Euro. Walk through the city and find a Gondalier for a ride (about 80 Euro). They don't sing, but the ride is unique and if you have enough people to share the bill, it is worth it. Lots of walking so wear good shoes.

Every day, you'll find Brad Harkleroad in the pool churning out laps and working hard to perfect his strokes. "Brad started swimming when he was just five," said his mother, Pat. "He has always loved the water and has a beautiful butterfly stroke." But his biggest obstacles haven't been in the water. Brad, who lives in Louisville, has both Down Syndrome and type 1 diabetes. Yet, he is one of only 10 athletes who recently qualified to represent the United States in the Down Syndrome International Swimming Organization's World Swimming Championships which will be held in Portugal from November 27 through December 4. "He is so thrilled to be going," said Pat.
Diabetes Doesn't Dampen His Dreams
It was about 10 years ago that Brad's mother first took him to the Joslin Diabetes Center. "I felt like they would be up on all the newest treatments for diabetes, and be linked to the latest studies," she said. "Now, we go in regularly for blood tests. The people there are so caring. When Brad gets sick it really affects his blood sugar. His verbal ability is limited, and sometimes he can't clearly explain the problem. So I just call Joslin and they walk me through everything and make sure he gets exactly what he needs."
Sri Prakash Mokshagundam, MD, is an endocrinologist at the Center. As he explained, "Brad takes two different types of insulin and uses them three or four times a day. His mother is extremely good at helping him manage his blood sugar. She always lets us know if any problems or questions arise." He added, "We monitor Brad closely. He is doing extremely well. And being active certainly helps keep his blood sugar under control. In fact, when he is very active, we can cut down on his dose of insulin."
"We are all proud of him," said Dr. Mokshagundam. "Lots of people give up after being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, but not Brad. He is an inspiration, particularly when you consider the other obstacles he has overcome."
"Too many people who are diagnosed with diabetes are afraid they can't manage their blood sugar and still be active and participate in sports. But exercise is very important to the health of people with diabetes. There are ways to handle it, and Brad and his mother have shown how well they can work."
-Sri Prakash Mokshagundam, MD Board Certified Endocrinologist Joslin Diabetes Center Affiliate at Floyd Memorial
"We first went to Joslin about 10 years ago. I felt like they would be up on all the newest treatments for diabetes, and be linked to the latest studies. They are wonderful people who take so much interest in Brad. For a mom with a special needs child, it means the world."
-Pat Harkleroad Brad's Mother
A Special Surprise
Traveling to Portugal will be an expensive venture, both for the participants and for the volunteer coaches who work with the athletes. When Brad and his mother visited Joslin to get the results of a recent blood test, they were surprised when the Joslin Center staff members handed Brad an envelope. As his mother described it, "He looked up with a big grin on his face and said, 'Mama, a whole bunch of money!' They had taken up a collection to help cover the team's travel expenses. It was such a wonderful thing to do," said Pat. "I'm so grateful for the interest they take in Brad."
A Talented Athlete
For many years Brad competed in the Special Olympics. In addition to his swimming, Brad is also an accomplished snow skier and golfer and has won competitions in both, including a gold medal for skiing in the International Special Olympic Winter Games in Park City, Utah.

How To Catch Salmon
Salmon fishing is better in the Northwest than anywhere else in the World. That's a bold claim but there are plenty of Oregon Salmon fishing guides and Washington Salmon fishing guides who fish the Columbia River, the Pacific Ocean, Tillamook Bay, the Puget Sound, the Olympic Peninsula, Umpqua River, Rogue River, Buoy 10, the Snake river, and places all over the Northwest for Salmon. We'll be posting fishing reports, fishing how to articles and tips telling everything about how to catch Salmon here.
Learn how to catch Salmon from the pros. The best Salmon fishing guides are listed on this website.
Salmon Fishing:
The Columbia River offers premiere opportunities to fish for salmon, steelhead, sturgeon, shad and a variety of warmwater species. Management of the river and its fisheries is a responsibility shared by state, federal and tribal agencies. The overarching management objective is to meet conservation requirements while providing optimum sport and commercial fishing opportunities

Pro Green rods were created for the more aggressive angler who is fishing for inshore saltwater species. These rods are surprisingly light for their power, yet sensitive enough to detect even the lightest bite.
Anglers fish for salmon with rod and reel, often using flies as bait. Commercial fishing for salmon is done on a much larger scale, employing traps and pound nets to catch the fish on the way to their spawning grounds. Salmon canning is one of the major industries of the American Pacific coast. To mitigate the decimation of wild salmon runs caused by construction of dams and overfishing, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service yearly deposits billions of salmon eggs and young, propagated in nurseries, into natural breeding grounds and constructs fish ladders for the upstream journey of mature salmon. However, hatchery-raised salmon have aggressive feeding habits-that is, they spend most of their time at the water's surface looking for food unlike the wild salmon that spend most of their time in deep water or under cover. As a result, hatchery-raised salmon consume most of the food wild salmon need to live. At the same time, this aggressive feeding makes hatchery salmon more vulnerable to predators because they stay near the surface. Hatchery salmon usually have less genetic diversity (see Genetics: Genes in Populations) than wild salmon, which can lead to lowered resistance to disease and other environmental hazards. The annual harvest of wild and farm-raised salmon in the United States averages about 478,000 metric tons, of which about 60 percent is canned.

Studio Two, EMI Studios, Abbey Road
Producer: George Martin
Engineer: Ken Scott
The final song to be recorded for the White Album was Julia, John Lennon's tribute to his mother.
He chose to record the song simply, with just vocals and acoustic guitar. It took just three takes to perfect the guitar track, which was recorded onto four-track tape.
The mostly instrumental take two was included on 1996's Anthology 3, but take three became the basis for the album release. Onto it Lennon recorded two vocal tracks and a second acoustic guitar part, and the song was complete.
A stereo mix of Julia was then created, followed by one of Dear Prudence, two of Wild Honey Pie, and one apiece of Back In The USSR and Blackbird.
Mono mixes followed: one of Julia, five of Dear Prudence, and finally one of Blackbird. A suitable mono mix of Back In The USSR had been made on 23 August 1968.

NEW DELHI: The Railways is set to take the war for passengers into the low-cost carriers territory, with a structured seasonal adjusted variable pricing policy, besides a steep cut in upper class fares .
Passengers undertaking a journey in the lean season would get a discount on all major long distance trains. However, journeys made during peak season, such as summer holidays and festival time, would attract a surcharge.

Hindenburg: The Last Flight

Stacy Keach, Lauren Lee Smith, and Maximilian Simonichek star in this two part miniseries about the Hindenburg disaster. Now, for those not big on history, the Hindenburg was a massive zeppelin that blew up and pretty much ended that way of travel (remember "Last Crusade," 'No Ticket?' That was a zeppelin). The tale takes place in 1937 and is going to air over the course of two nights. The miniseries is going to have a love story and a conspiracy and, by the end, one assumes a massively large explosion. Plus, as stated, Stacy Keach, and we've liked him ever since he was Mike Hammer.

Winters Named Atlantic 10 co-Rookie of the Week
Dec. 31, 2012
PITTSBURGH, - Duquesne freshman forward Quevyn Winters (Milwaukee, Wis./M.A.C.K. (N.C.) Academy) has been named Atlantic 10 co-Rookie of the Week it was announced today. It is the third consecutive week DU has taken home A-10 ROW honors as fellow freshman Derrick Colter was honored on Dec. 17 & 24.
This is just the fourth time in school history - and first time in a 16-team league - that DU has produced two different Rookies of the Week in the same season. The last two to accomplish the feat were 1,500-point scorers Damian Saunders (three times) and Bill Clark (once) in 2007-08. Duquesne's other multiple same-season Rookies of the Week are Robert Mitchell (five times) and Scott Grote (once) in 2006-07 and Tony Petrarca (four times) and Kevin McCarthy (once) in 1986-87.
Winters, who shares this week's honor with Butler guard Kellen Dunham, went 5-of-10 from the field in scoring 14 points to go along with four rebounds in the 84-74 loss at Penn State. His second of two 3-pointers cut a 22-point PSU second half lead (with 9:52 remaining) to five with 56 seconds left as Duquesne's comeback fell short.
Winters, who ranks second on the Dukes to Colter in 3-pointers made with 23 (Colter has 24), is averaging 8.6 points and 4.2 rebounds in 21.4 minutes per game off the bench. He has scored in double digits five times and has hit multiple 3-pointers in a game eight times.
The streak of Duquesne Rookies of the Week will come to an end on Jan. 6, as the Dukes (7-7) are idle until their Atlantic 10 opener at Fordham on Wednesday, Jan. 9. The Fordham game, set for a 7:00 p.m. tip, will be televised by the YES Network.

VAO SpecificationPosted Tuesday, 15 July, 2014 - 18:03 by MutterOberin in
Dear OpenTK Community,
As far as I know the Element Array is part of the VAO state. That means there should be no reason to bind it before a DrawCall with a VAO bound.
In Code:
GL.BindVertexArray(base.VAO_1); // This line is not needed GL.BindBuffer(BufferTarget.ElementArrayBuffer, base.VBO_ELEMENTS); GL.DrawElements(PrimitiveType.Quads, base.elements.Length, DrawElementsType.UnsignedInt, 0); GL.BindVertexArray(0);
The bad thing is if I leave the marked line out it just doesn't work. Is there something I miss / do wrong?
Ok, it looks like its my fault.
For the Array Buffers everything is ok if you do
GL.BindBuffer(BufferTarget.ArrayBuffer, 0);
before calling
because the VertexAttribPointer Calls are the important ones to feed the VAO
But for the ElementArrayBuffer its not.
Lesson learned:
Never call
GL.BindBuffer(BufferTarget.ElementArrayBuffer, 0);

Drop Spindle
I would like to try a drop spindle. Has anyone here used one and how easy is it to do? It seems like a cheaper way to go to find out if you like spinning yarn.
I'm curious about this, too. I won't get to spin if I don't use a spindle; the wheels are beyond our budget right now. :rollseyes:
same here. I have heard that some people just don't seem to be able to do it but can spin with spinning wheels. Would think it would be worth trying :thumbsup:
I have not had much luck with a drop spindle. I feel like I need one more hand to make it all work. I can't tell you yet about how well I take to the wheel. Hopefully a lot better since I just bought one.
I think it is definately worth a try to learn drop spindle. I plan on keeping at it for at least a little while longer.
The spindle is something that requires some patience with the learning curve. I was horribly frustrated when I began - leader yarn breaking, much swearing. I'd say that now I'm probably a mediocre spinner - I can get it moving but I lack the fine control for specific yarns. This is all because I don't take the trouble to practice more often, though.
It is a skill worth learning, and the drop spindle is definitely the most affordable way to get experience. The key is to have patience with yourself, and if the books don't work for you, try to find someone at your LYS or community ed office that can find a course for you. Sometimes it just takes learning from someone face to face - seeing it helps you put together what your own hands ought to be doing.
(Note to Amy - spinning tutorials for Drop Spindle? Good expansion lesson. :thumbsup: )
I mentioned this before somewhere, but I finally got TWO spindles last Oct at my local big wool & sheep festival. I wanted a spindle for a year and finally found the ones I really liked at the festival. Annnnnnd, I haven't tried spinning yet. I just keep looking forward to it and don't do it.
Procratinator Extraordinaire
I have a really good book on it too. The one spindle I got is so beautiful, it cost $36 or something near there. One is smaller and the other a big guy.
I'm definitely going to try this any day now. I think I'd like in person lessons though... it's just they're so expensive around NYC. a drag
Like $200.
$200? Ack!
Do you get DIY? Knitty Gritty has a spinning episode, and it airs again on Feb. 9 at 11:30 a.m. eastern. In it, Liz Gipson demonstrates how to use a drop spindle. Also, here's a link to an online tutorial of sorts. I'm sure there are lots of other sites out there; I just like Mielke's Fiber Arts!
When I finally get a spindle ( :rollseyes: ), I'm going to try to use the KG episode and the online thing...*fingers crossed that it works*
Also a TERRIFIC book for drop spindle is called Spin it by Lee Raven
I have just pulled this book out again to re-read it and I wish I had read it closer the first time I think I would have done better. I am going to take my time this time and do the little teaching exercises she gives that I skipped last time. Who knows I may figure out this spindle thing after all.
Oh, I have lots of cds to make a spindle, but it will be a PITA to make it because I lack the necessary tools.
There's a place about 10 minutes from me that has all sorts of them starting at about $15, so I'll likely get one from there.

You had to see this coming. The Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys staged a joint practice session in Oxnard and you got it, the players got into a couple of fights with each other.
One of the fights turned ugly as some of the Cowboys ended up right next to Raiders fans. Some of the spectators swung helmets at the players and the Cowboys shoved some of the fans before order was restored.
The two teams practice against each other again on Wednesday morning at 10 a.m.

July 9th, 2013 - 5:34am
(Port Angeles) -- The Port of Port Angeles has four candidates to become the interim executive director.
Port commissioners yesterday agreed to the finalist list to take over the top administrative post at the port.
But port commissioners won't reveal the names or locations of the finalists.
They firmed up the list during an executive session. It appears the public won't know the name until the job is offered. Commissioners plan to interview the finalists in closed-door sessions.
The port is looking to fill Jeff Robb's former position. Robb resigned two weeks ago and then was immediately re-hired, at the same 138-thousand dollar a year salary, as the port's new environmental affairs director.
The port has hired a Seattle company to search for an interim and new permanent executive director.

Marmotte is a concepts design artist with a flair for color that highlights ordinary objects and sends them into a special place for observation.
Veronique Meignaud otherwise known as Marmotte (b.1984) is a French freelance illustrator living in Montreal. After two years of formation at the Emile Cohl Art School (Lyon / France), she spent almost five years working for the video game industry as concept artist. Marmotte is now working for several publishers and starting slowly in the fashion Industry.
Approach to Art
Here is her approach to design art:
"While creating a new piece, a lot of trained artists already have a precise idea of what they are after. The picture they want to create is like a set destination, and they work rigorously until this destination is reached. While technique and academic training are necessary in the creation of any piece of artwork, some artists feel they are sometimes trapped by these and feel a need to free themselves. This often manifests with an artist being bored by his own work, feeling that he lacks imagination … Rather than working with a set destination in mind, I like my personal works to take me wherever they want to go. Thus the destination is never set, it evolves during the making of the picture. This is the way I feel the most free, and this is the way that I feel my ideas won't curb themselves to a limited space."
Her style has come to the attention of multiple clients that picture her work for its dramatic colors. The clients include Computer Games Studios, Electronic Arts, Darkworks, Don't Nod Entertainment, Spiders Games, Tokkun Studio, Hydravision, Gameloft, Widescreen Games, Etranges Libellules, Wizarbox, Nemopolis, Fashion Design, Nike, and Marc Ecko.
The publishers she has worked with include Wizards of the Coast, Ankama Editions, Imagine FX magazine, Advance Photoshop magazine, Milan Jeunesse, ActuSF Editions.
Video Tutorial
She has worked on a tutorial video for Massive Black, "Stream of Consciousness Illustration" is now available on Massive Black Download.
Beside this, her personal art projects are on-going, such as Kerogen, an illustration book that will be published by the fresh Venusdea label, which is directed by Barbara Canepa & Clotilde Vu in the Soleil Editions.

DETROIT, Mich. – The Tampa Bay Lightning entered the game with a bad history at Joe Louis Arena. Valtteri Filppula was making his return. Ryan Malone was going to skate in his 600th game. Steve Yzerman, well, all you need to say is the name when you're in Detroit.
Whatever storyline you chose, the only thing that mattered to Tampa Bay was coming out of the contest versus their Atlantic Division rival with a win. And that they did, defeating the Detroit Red Wings, 3-2, in overtime Saturday night.
"We sit there as a staff and the organization hasn't won too often here, but we don't want to put that in our guys heads," head coach Jon cooper said. "That was in the past. New staff, new team, moving forward we need to win games here, if we want to make it to the playoffs and tonight was a good start for us."
The first period brought a total turnaround from Thursday's game for the Bolts. Despite giving the Red Wings an early lead at 3:51 of the first, the Lightning responded, nearly unphased, with a tally of their own at the midway point of the opening frame. First, Steven Stamkos' pass deep in the defensive zone was intercepted by the Detroit's Henrik Zetterberg right in front of Ben Bishop's net. Zetterberg launched the puck by Bishop for a 1-0 lead.
Six minutes later however, Matt Carle sent the puck to the boards behind the net, which Malone was able to pick up. Skating around the net, Malone attempted to score on the wraparound, but Howard was able to stop the puck. Malone stayed committed though and wristed a shot by the Detroit netminder off his own rebound at 10:11 to tie the game at one. The marker was Malone's second of the season and first since October 15.
"I shook off the rust with that one," Malone said. "That's been the longest drought I've been in so hopefully it won't happen again."
The Red Wings stepped-up the offensive pressure in the middle period, adding 15 shots, including nine on 6:48 of power-play time. Yet Bishop answered the call for the Bolts, stopping a number of breakaways from a dangerous list of Detroit forwards. The Lightning gained the lead while they were at it too.
After a huge penalty kill, Tampa Bay brought the puck back into the Red Wings' zone and Hedman made a pass to Steven Stamkos from the left side of the blue line. Stamkos immediately sent the puck past Howard for a 2-1 lead at 12:50 of the second. The tally extended Stamkos' goal streak to six straight games and also tied him with Alex Steen for the league lead in goals with 14.
"When a little adversity hit, we were down, it was 5-on-3, to kill it off and I was joking with Thompson, 'you put us down, four-minute minor and then you come out with a plus, you better pat Stamkos on the back for that one,'" Cooper said. "That was the turning point in the game, they had a chance to take the lead and for us to come out on top like that, I was really happy with our effort."
With 4:12 remaining in the contest the Red Wings managed to tie the game at two with a blast from Zetterberg that flew by Bishop and into the top corner of the net for a 2-2 game. The score was Zetterberg's second of the night and eventually forced extra time.
Teddy Purcell came through for the Lightning in overtime, however, as the Bolts went on to win just their second game in Detroit and also notching their fourth straight victory.
"It felt great to get the game-winner," Purcell said. "It felt like every game I was getting two or three looks, but couldn't buy one. Anytime you're in a slump like that it's great to break out, especially when you get your team two big points."
UP NEXT – Tampa Bay immediately heads to Boston after Saturday's game to prepare for a special 1 p.m. puck drop against the Bruins on Veteran's Day. It is also the first game of back-to-back contests that also features the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday.

Nestle Rowntree Fruit Pastilles, Set of 24
Reviewed by 2 customers
Comments about Nestle Rowntree Fruit Pastilles, Set of 24:
When you do find this wonderful candy read the label to see where is was made. The ones made in Asia or Hong Kong don't taste as good as the ones exported from England. Places in North America are Victoria BC, Las Vegas, and Orlando.
Comments about Nestle Rowntree Fruit Pastilles, Set of 24:
I have loved this candy since I first tried it many years ago. Before I found it here I would have to purchase a large bag of them which did last but it was harder to keep in my small work bag. Now that I have found these rolled versions, I can take it anywhere and prevent me from over snacking on them.

Waska Tatay explores the rites and rituals of Bolivian witchcraft and pagan practice
Thomas Rousset and Raphaël Verona's Waska Tatay is fairly ambiguous at first glance. The cover is a simple yellow-to-blue fade with the title placed inconspicuously on the spine; but the content is altogether more arresting. Using a mixture of reportage and staged portraiture the photo book documents the pair's trip to the Altiplano region of Bolivia and their encounters with witch doctors, spiritual healers and medicine men; uncovering the rites and rituals of these ancient orders and illuminating some of their extraordinary mythologies.
What's particularly engaging about this study is the counterpoint between traditions that date back millennia and their modern setting. We see a witch doctor up a tree, in ceremonial dress but clutching her cell phone to her face, a pair of women in costumes and masks sat next to a TV/VCR and surrounded by stuffed toys and shoes, and a man dressed head-to-toe as a fish in a modern room that could easily be a theatre green room. This balance between old and new, good and evil, spiritual and physical creates a delicious tension in the book, particularly for a Western reader, whose secularised view of the world will find the unification of these seemingly contradictory worlds fascinating.
Waska Tatay is available now from IDPURE.

Family Mosaic calls for new way to measure resident satisfaction
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
Brendan Sarsfield
Family Mosaic has called for a "more sophisticated" index to determine true resident satisfaction, one which will incorporate "a range of measures around health, wealth and wellbeing to determine how successful we really are as a landlord".
Its report, 'Missing the Mark: Why resident satisfaction isn't measuring up', is available on www.familymosaic.co.uk (click 'Our Research').
The housing association, one of the largest in London and the south east, claims "there have always been questions about the veracity" of resident satisfaction, which has been widely used to measure operational performance and for housing associations to benchmark themselves against others.
It notes that that "like much of the sector, Family Mosaic's relationship with its tenants is going through fundamental change" and "in the current climate, we can no longer afford to see our tenants just as passive recipients of basic housing services; we expect them to be more demanding of us and more aspirational in their own lives and we need to know we're getting it right".
Chief executive Brendan Sarsfield (photo) said: "As our relationship with our residents evolves, we need a new approach and a new set of tools that go beyond rigid operational targets. The old approach to measuring how satisfied our residents are with us won't work. This isn't just about tweaking performance indicators, we need a different set of questions which reflect how demanding, aspirational and, at times, dissatisfied our customers are with us. It's about a completely new mindset."
Family Mosaic conducted research that sets out some of the limitations of satisfaction "as a metric" and explored how it can measure the success of its relationship with residents in a way that is more rounded and relevant to the role it believes social housing should play in promoting the health, wealth and wellbeing of our residents.
However, Family Mosaic stressed this "does not mean we will abandon resident satisfaction. On the contrary, our commitment to delivering excellent service is as strong as ever. But although resident satisfaction is a necessary measure of success, it is not a sufficient one".
Over the next year Family Mosaic plans "to develop a new composite measure that will better capture how successful we are in meeting our residents' needs".

Norman Foster (December 13, 1903 – July 7, 1976) was an American film director and actor.
Life and career[edit]
Born John Hoeffer in Richmond, Indiana, Foster originally became a cub reporter on a local newspaper in Indiana before going to New York in the hopes of getting a better newspaper job but there were no vacancies.
He tried a number of theatrical agencies before getting stage work and later appeared on Broadway in the George S. Kaufman/Ring Lardner play June Moon in 1929. He also acted in London.[citation needed] He began working in crowd scenes in films before moving to bigger parts. His film acting credits include the following:
- It Pays to Advertise (1931)
- Up Pops the Devil (1931)
- Men Call It Love (1931)
- Play-Girl (1932)
- Week-End Marriage (1932)
- Skyscraper Souls (1932)
- Prosperity (1932)
- Pilgrimage (1933)
- Walls of Gold (1933)
- Professional Sweetheart (1933)[1]
- Rafter Romance (1933)
- State Fair (1933)
- Orient Express (1934)
- Strictly Dynamite (1934)
- Behind the Green Lights (1935)
- The Bishop Misbehaves (1935)
- Ladies Crave Excitement (1935)
- Mr. Moto Takes a Vacation (1939)
Foster wrote several plays. He gave up acting in the late 1930s to pursue directing, although he occasionally appeared in movies and television programs. Foster directed a number of Charlie Chan and Mr. Moto mysteries, including Charlie Chan in Panama (1940), Charlie Chan at Treasure Island (1939), Mr. Moto Takes a Vacation (1939), Charlie Chan in Reno (1939), Mr. Moto's Last Warning (1939), Mysterious Mr. Moto (1938), Mr. Moto Takes a Chance (1938), Thank You, Mr. Moto (1937), and Think Fast, Mr. Moto (1937). He co-wrote and directed the "My Friend Bonito" segment of Orson Welles's unfinished Pan-American anthology film It's All True (1941).[2]:310–311 Initially engaged as a second-unit director who would film background material,[3]:189 Foster came to do much more and the quality of his work would have been recognized with a co-director credit on the film.[4]:31–34 A co-production of RKO Pictures and the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs, the non-commercial project was later terminated by RKO.[2]:41
As Welles prepared to go to Brazil to film the Rio Carnival for It's All True, he temporarily suspended "Bonito" (for which filming was never completed) so Foster could return to Hollywood to direct Journey into Fear (1943). Welles played a small on-screen role in the Mercury Production, and denied that he took over direction of the film himself.[5]:155
Some of Foster's other directorial efforts include Kiss the Blood off My Hands (1948), Rachel and the Stranger (1948), Woman on the Run (1950) and The Sign of Zorro (1958). He directed the Davy Crockett segments of the Walt Disney anthology television series Disneyland that were edited into the feature films Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier (1955) and Davy Crockett and the River Pirates (1956). Foster's second verse of his lyrics to Disney's Zorro theme song which was "He is polite, but the wicked take flight, when they catch the sight of Zorro. He's friend of the weak, and the poor, and the meek, this very unique Senor Zorro." never aired on the television series. This version of the Zorro Theme including these verses was performed by The Chordettes. These verses later appeared in the Disney Sing-Along Songs version of the Zorro Theme in its 1987 direct-to-video episode, "Heigh-Ho". In 1967, he directed Brighty of the Grand Canyon, based on a children's novel by Marguerite Henry about a burro in the Grand Canyon National Park.[citation needed]
Personal life[edit]
Foster was married to Claudette Colbert from 1928 until their divorce in 1935. In October 1935, he wed actress Sally Blane, an older sister of Loretta Young. They had their first child (born in June 1936) named Gretchen (Loretta Young's birth name). They also had a son, Robert.[6]
Foster died in 1976 from cancer in Santa Monica, aged 72. He and Blane are interred in Holy Cross Cemetery, Culver City.[citation needed]

You can use Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 to make and edit charts and graphs using data in Microsoft Excel 2010. There are two ways to add a chart or graph to a presentation:
You can create a chart or graph in your presentation. When you create a chart in PowerPoint, the data for that chart is edited using Microsoft Excel 2010, but the data is saved with the PowerPoint file.
You can paste an Excel chart or graph into your presentation and link to the data in an Excel file. When you copy a chart from a saved Excel file and paste it into your presentation, the data in the chart is linked to that Excel file. If you want to change the data in the chart, you must make your changes to the linked worksheet in Excel, and then refresh the data in your PowerPoint presentation. The Excel worksheet is a separate file and is not saved with the PowerPoint file.
Pasting a linked chart or graph is the easiest way to incorporate a chart built from an existing Excel workbook, or one with a large amount of data. For more information, see Insert a linked Excel chart in PowerPoint 2010
Note: The following guidance assumes Microsoft Excel 2010 is installed on your computer. If Excel 2010 is not installed, a new data chart in PowerPoint is created using Microsoft Graph. In that case, some of the advanced data charting capabilities of Excel 2010 are not available.
Create a chart or graph in a presentation
To create a chart or graph in PowerPoint 2010, do the following:
In PowerPoint, click the placeholder into which you want to insert a chart or graph.
Do one of the following:
On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations group, click Chart.
In the placeholder, click Insert Chart .
Click the chart or graph type that you want and click OK.
A Microsoft Excel worksheet with some sample data opens in a new window. To replace the sample data, click a cell on the worksheet and enter your data. You can also replace the sample axis labels in Column A and the legend entry name in Row 1.
When you have input all data that you want in the Excel worksheet, click the File tab and then click Close. The chart in PowerPoint is automatically updated with the new data.
You can modify the chart in PowerPoint, including changes to appearance, size or position. Click the chart, then on the green Chart Tools contextual tab, use the Design, Layout or Format tab to make changes. To add animation effects to the chart, use tools on the Animations tab.
You can change chart data in PowerPoint. Click the chart, then on the green Chart Tools contextual tab, on the Design tab, click Edit Data. For more details, see Change the data in an existing chart.
Tip: Some types of charts, such as organization charts, flow charts, hierarchical diagrams, or showing repetitive information, might be more easily and effectively created using SmartArt. If you are not sure which would be the best tool, see When should I use a SmartArt graphic and when should I use a chart?

On Armistice Day, November 11, 1940, thousands of hunters gathered to hunt ducks on the Upper Mississippi River in the Great Plains and Upper Midwest, including Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois.
The fall of 1940 had been unseasonably warm. In many areas along the "Father of Waters," November 11 started with blue skies and a balmy 55-degree temperature. The pleasant weather didn't last long, though, for to the west, a storm was brewing, a storm that earlier had hit the Pacific Northwest with near hurricane-force gusts. Storms normally weaken as they cross the Rockies, but this storm did not. Instead, it tapped moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and cold air lurking over Canada, and the two combined into an explosive pattern. Skies darkened, winds picked up and sprinkles of rain began to fall. Around noon, a howling blizzard began making its way across the Upper Mississippi, a blizzard no one would ever forget.
When the temperature first began to plummet, most duck hunters were pleased. Shooting conditions were perfect. Thousands of ducks started funneling into the river valley, and the gunning got better and better. What the hunters did not realize was that the ducks were gathering in huge concentrations to seek shelter from the increasingly bad weather. Many hunters decided to stay until they could take a limit of birds (and they were big limits in those days) or until shooting hours were over at 4 p.m.
During the excitement of the hunt, the ferocity of the wind and cold air was ignored. And when 4 o'clock rolled around, the hunters discovered it was too rough to get back to the mainland. Some tried anyway and managed to make it ashore under their own steam. They stood, white and shaking on solid ground, and looked back on a river running 5-foot waves.
Hundreds did not make it back home that night. Freezing, they made their way to high ground when possible, and tried to make the best of a terrible situation. Some huddled together for warmth under overturned boats. Others walked round and round to keep from freezing. All of them suffered. Before the night was over, the wild chill temperature dropped as low as minus 55 degrees.
The next day, more than 50 duck hunters were found dead by rescuers, their frozen bodies recovered from marshes, lakes, potholes, ponds and rivers from Ontario to Illinois and from Iowa to Michigan. And the Great Armistice Day Storm found a place of infamy as one of the deadliest winter storms ever to hit this country.

For the Annals of Stupid Things I Do to Food/Drink During Races, I have not yet exhausted my supply of stories from Around the Bay.
I packed my race kit the evening before the race (I'm organized!) in the dark because it was Earth Hour and I'm awesome in a turn the lights out way (I'm not organized enough to finish before Earth Hour!) and thus my gel selection was touch based. I quickly discovered that my gel selection was limited to two choices: lumpy or really lumpy.
I opted for Lumpy. Lumpy, I later discovered by candlelight, was over a year expired. Really Lumpy was nearly two years expired and intelligently went right to the garbage bin. You may recall my recent brush with expired products. I lost. Sweaty Kid reminded me of a recent tangle with gels during a race. I lost. Someone with more foresight than me could have easily avoid certain tragedy.
But Lumpy seemed fine except for the bottom lumpy bits. I reasoned I could eat around the lumpy bits, which would helpfully stay put at the bottom of packet. I estimated 5/6 of the packet was edible. The odds were in my favour.
I saved my gel for 21K, a sugar kick for the final push. In my race haze I greedily consumed the entire packet, lumpy bits and all, then immediately freaked as the disgusting and no longer vanilla flavoured lumps bumped down my throat.
I do not know the physical side effects of expired gels, but the psychological side effects are an urgent need to go and to go is code for two not one, obsessive worrying about the side effects of ingesting expired chemicals, and the constant feeling of not vanilla regurgitation.
Not one to let a near poisoning throw me off my game, as you well know, I stoically soldiered on.

The record release show in Providence was off the chain! Approximately 200 people showed up, all the bands on the bill kicked ass, and the crowd grew in intensity as the night went on. By the time we hit the stage they were all riled up and ready for the Victory Riot thrashing and singing that followed. Folks danced and screamed along the words and Alan and I actually had to step back from the front of the stage as people from the pit spilled over the monitors and passed the mic stands! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect night. Thank you to everyone who came, and everyone who helped make it such an amazing show.
Since then we've played Manhattan, the New London Punk Festival, Oswego-NY, Lansing-MI, Chicago, and back to back shows in Minneapolis! Sage paid us a surprise visit in Chicago at the Weiser House, he grabbed the mic during Patriarchy Presents and Hard Core wind mills/floor punching ensued. In Minneap we got to play at the legendary 7th Street Entry and webcasted live from the St. Paul Opera Collective. It's a great feeling to finally take these songs on the road and sharpen the set; the overall sound feels tighter and more powerful with each passing show.
Salt Lake City, Boise, Seattle, and Portland are up next! Then down the west coast to Eureka, Sacramento, San Fran, and L.A. Thanks for stickin' with us, and if you're anywhere near a city we're hitting up – for the love of Pete, come on out and dance with us!!
(Here are a few pics from the Providence show! It's been hard to compile stuff from the road, so unfortunately, these are just of me but we've got full band pics from all the shows on the way!)

Try 'help update volume' You will see access=available isnt a valid
If you have ran a checkin then Id expect you to see the tapes when you
run a 'q libvol' but it sounds like you may just be using some sort of
small autoloader and Im not familiar with how the checkin for this
would work, ie does it behave like a proper tape library with regards
to the 'q libv' listing.
You could try a 'upd volume name access=readwrite' to see if that

Home Page for Noah Torp-Smith
Together with my wife Camilla, I have created a more personal web site (unfortunaltely mostly in Danish, but you might find your way to, e.g. our pictures anyhow). If you want to keep track of me and what I am up to, that is probably the place to look. The new page may be found here.
I have followed courses within different areas of theoretical computer science during my Ph. D. studies. The main interests have been in category theory and domain theory, but I have also studied calculi for mobility and concurrency.
My research is primarily focussed on separation logic, which is a logic that was discovered independently by Peter O'Hearn and John Reynolds. It is well suited to reason about programs that manipulate shared mutable data structures. In my master's thesis, I used separation logic to formally specify and prove correct a copying garbage collector. I have also worked on combining separation logic and refinement, and currently, I am looking into categorical models for separation logic. See the list of papers below.
My Ph.D. study plan is available here (to help new students to write their own study plans). If you are a new Ph.D. student at ITU, you might find this guide to making study plans useful.
