Never Say Never Again is not included since it is not part of the "series," being produced independently. Likewise the David Niven spoof of Casino Royale. Also, there was a British TV version of Casino Royale that is not included.
Dr. No - Overall nice quality blu-ray. Colors have been driven more towards naturalistic than originally done
From Russia With Love - Overall nice quality blu-ray. Colors have been driven more towards naturalistic than originally done
Goldfinger - The gold is gone. Why screw with the color? The scene where she's painted gold has lost its golden touch and has been moved towards a more natural color. Yes, she's gold, but the original scene had a golden tint all around
Thunderball - Some color changes and slight damage, DNR, fake grain
You Only Live Twice - Original colors are lost and it's largely brown.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service - Contrast boosted way too much. Also, original colors are lost and it's largely brown. Audio issues on both the mono (Muffled in spots) and remix.
Diamonds Are forever - Changes in color and lack of detail. Original colors are lost--it's lost its "glimmer" and is largely brown now. Desaturated. Also, the scene where a cigarette is put out in Bond's chest isn't supposed to show the ashtray until he stands up, as seen in the original theatrical prints--the scene is supposed to be much darker
Live and Let Die - Okay blu-ray
The Man with the Golden Gun - Okay blu-ray, colors off
The Spy Who Loved Me - Excellent blu-ray
Moonraker - slightly squeezed and window-boxed main title sequence, okay otherwise
For Your Eyes Only - Fine blu-ray
Octopussy - Excessive edge enhancement
A View to a Kill - Image is misframed/cropped. Also, during an earthquake scene, the image/camera was supposed to shake.Read more ›
Dr. No - Good color; lossless audio or mono but no use of surround system
From Russia With Love - Overall good color; lossless audio or mono but no use of surround system
Goldfinger - Good color; lossless audio or mono but no use of surround system
Thunderball - Good color; lossless audio or mono but no use of surround system
You Only Live Twice -Good color; lossless audio or mono but almost no use of surround system except some panning which is rare
On Her Majesty's Secret Service - Good color; lossless audio or mono but no use of surround system except some panning across the front stage.
Diamonds Are forever - Good video transfer but very disappointed in the lack of discreet channel usage
Live and Let Die - Same as the above
The Man with the Golden Gun - Same as the above
The Spy Who Loved Me -excellent color transfer but little use of your surround
Moonraker - The same as The Spy Who Loved Me
The video transfers for almost all these early films are quite nice with no real crawling grain, no artifacting or stair stepping. On a couple of the Sean Connery films, there were, clear to be seen, dirt on the transfer in the form of what looked like lint. It only lasted for a couple of seconds however. Also, on one of the 'Extras' if you clicked on a extremely short shot of the 'Scuba Duck' it come up as the short of the 'rappeling gun' and visa versa. Clearly an error.Read more ›
There is no point in reviewing the films. You either like them or you don't. You know what they are. The films, together, have 120 hours of special features, so there is enough here to take a couple of weeks of essentially non-stop viewing (with sleep, of course). Most has been released before. There is a bonus disc of new content. As others have said, the non-franchise films are not included and there is no reason to have expected them.
I like the packaging. The discs are divided in two hard-back books, with stills from the films on the opposing pages. There are two discs per page, one disc per film, with a picture of a relevant "Bond Girl" next to the release date beside each disc. The two books are slip-cased. It is a classy looking and sturdy package.
I have no trouble removing them from the pages, and have yet to have to touch the surface. None of the ones I received had any fingerprints on them, so I have no idea what the other reviewer is speaking of.

All about fresh, flavorful food
by Stephanie Small
food and money, food habits, spending habits, food, eating habits, three sisters nutrition, food for thought, stephanie small
Stephanie Small is a psychotherapist and holistic nutritionist who helps women improve their relationship with food. Find more from Stephanie at Three Sisters Nutrition.
How are you with food?
Do you use it as a healthy support for the rest of your life?
Do you overthink it and worry you're not doing it right?
Do you eat restrictively, with the occasional (or more than occasional) binge on "bad" foods that just feel oh-so-good?
Do you eat restrictively, period?
Do you plan ahead, or scramble at the last minute to find something to eat? Do you eat enough?
Are you afraid of eating?
Do you eat whatever you want, without thinking about how it's impacting you?
Re-read that list. Now replace the term "eat" with "spend."
Food and money are both foundational supports for us. In their own way, they each nourish us. They are both key for our sense of safety and well-being. If we've got a problematic relationship with one, we tend to have a problematic relationship with the other.
Take a client of mine. She's in the early stages of starting her own business, so she often feels poor. She's always been able to afford the necessities, but she feels frustrated at having to restrict her expenditures to a shoestring budget. So whenever she comes into a bit of extra money, it goes somewhere immediately. Clothes, drinks, dinners out. She feels she needs a reward, and I agree—but I also think she'd feel safer with that money in the bank as a cushion.
She does the same with food. She's well aware of what her body needs, and how to eat healthily. She'll stick to a pretty strict regimen for weeks at a time. But she's doing it because she thinks she "should," rather than from a true desire to give her body the best. Eventually she allows a "splurge," then another, and before she knows it she's indulging every day.
It's worth noticing where these patterns crop up in your life and examining them. Are you giving yourself what you need, both in terms of eating and spending? Or are you engaging in behaviors that leave you feeling unstable? Where are your strengths, and where can you "shore up" the weaker areas? Remember that food and money are there to serve you, not the other way around. You're in control of your life, and you make the choices.

Solutions for Chapter 16
Any sport can be simulated in a game, whether it is real or a fake sport. When simulating a fake sport, the idea is entirely unique and might not necessarily exist in the real world, so no license needs to be obtained for doing so. It is then up to the designer to determine names, gameplay rules, and other aspects that make up that sport.
Depending on the type of real sport being simulated in a game, licenses may need to be obtained from the professional leagues, such as NFL and NBA. If real names and teams are being used as part of the game's components, a license must first be obtained from these leagues in order to legally do so without running into issues.

This is in resonse to me saying I don't believe in God on my FB wall this week.
"I am sending you a quick note because I have felt led to just let you know that I am praying for you. I respect you so much as a friend, collegue, and former classmate...and you are the smartest person I know. I have been tearing up thinking about your recent post of not believeing in God and Christ and my heart just weeps. You've been on my mind and I know that what you believe is none of my business and I respect that as well. I just want you to know from the bottom of my heart, that I care and will be praying for you and am thankful that you are my friend. "
This is from a girl I went to pharmacy school with. We aren't friends really in that we don't hang out or talk other than professionally or liking pics of each others kids on facebook. She is a very sheltered but very sweet girl. I want to respond kindly because I know she means well.
On the other hand the whole thing pisses me off! I would never dream of contacting someone who posted a bible verse to let them know I am "tearing up" at the though of them perpetuating myths that cause oppression and ignorance, so why is it ok the other way around?
How would you respond?

In "Summer of '49," Halberstam not only gave us an engaging blow-by-blow of one of baseball's best pennant races, as well as some of the key minor players to accompany the all-star cast, he gave us a feel for why baseball was so important to so many people at the time. Even though the book is about two of the last Major League franchises to racially integrate (the Yankees in 1955, the Sox in '59), the crumbling of the color barrier works its way into the story nearly as deeply as the tales of the two teams' immigrants' sons (the DiMaggios, Pesky, Rizzuto). So do baseball's postwar popularity boom, the suburban flight that would soon force franchise shifts and expansion, and the dawn of the television age. The social perspective Halberstam sewed together is just as important, and colorful, as the fine drama that played out on the book's main stage.
Even if you aren't a fan of the Red Sox or Yankees or if 1949 isn't a part of your life, this is something for any student of the game. Of course, baseball is the main theme but it also ties in how much our culture is and was affected by it. And if you just want to learn more about DiMaggio or Williams, Halberstam offers great insight into the legendary players.
Even today, when it isn't the most popular sport in America, baseball still has sociological implications on society. I am definitely getting this for my dad.

I am sorry you are hurting.
You do not state what you need in specifics. You only say "please talk to me!" so I will talk. I see you. I see your pain. I will also say this -- "don't take on extra baggage! Reduce your own stress!"
YES. It sucks! Breaking up is going to suck for a time. It is the Time of Suckage. *hug*
I can only share my limited perspective on this situation. Here is what I see. I do not know if it will help you.
If B & J have a personal limit of only dating couples? It is not YOU preventing G dating J. It is THEIR couple limit. Is G shooshing his disappointment on you inappropriately? If so, it is NOT YOU who has imposed the limit. If G wants to date J, G must tell J this. Is G doing it?
If you are doing it for G because of fear of G blaming you?
G is out of line not wanting to do G's own work directly. You could learn to say "No. I will not do your work for you."
If J wants to date G, it is on J tell G this. Then to renegotiate that couple limit with B. Still not your baggage to hold. It is J's job to do. Are you doing it for J? How come? You could learn to say to J "I will not do your work for you. Approach G direct."
If B has a grievance about your "dramatics" -- well, B is not wanting to talk. You cannot get the verify right now. Is it possible B means "you do not give people emotional space to do their work in? You take things on your plate that are not your baggage to hold?"
Do not do serious relationship maintaining work by cel phone text. Most of what communication does is not oral or written -- it's the paraverbal. You miss a huge chunk of the party if you do not get this part. That IS some of your baggage to hold here in conflict resolution within this polyship. You choose to engage in the texting arena. You could choose to not text. You could choose tell the person texting you "This is serious relationship convo. I cannot text this. Please make phone appointment (ok choice) or face time appointment. (best)"
b said they are fed up with my dramatics, on sunday we had a day out and I got upset because we didn't spend the day together and
I was left outside most places to look after the kids (mine and g's)
while they went shopping
Why are you and G not arranging for a babysitter? So you can go out as 2 adult couples then? It is not B & J's problem to arrange your babysitter for you.
If a couple date is desired and no sitter is found, why are B & J not informed of the realities of child management? "Well, guys, if you want to go out we are up for it. But it has to be family friendly style cuz we have the kids along. You know what that means, right? You still game?"
If they are not parents themselves they may not
what it means or see when/how they are being clueless. This is on BOTH you and G to alert them to the reality of life with children. Couples can do family dates but they need to know what it is to hang out
en famille.
Is G shooshing the whole childcare job on you? When are you allowed fun on these couple dates then? Since the couple will only see you as a couple. (Their limit.) If the kids have a need to be watched carefully on couple dates,the parents must do this for their offspring. What is the co-parent G's responsiveness to this need? You are willing to do your share of the kid watching. Is G willing to do G's share of the kid watching?
we have tried ringing, we have been texting as it is the only way as j's partner said they don't want anything to do with us anymore so texting is the only way we can talk
(with J?)
at least till we can try and get together as a group
(if/when B is willing to talk?)
This is adding to your stressy. Not taking away from it. You have pretty much said all there is to say --
that you are willing to sort things out.
You could back off now. You did your bit. Wait. (Vent here if you have to in the waiting time rather than texting vent stuff over there cloduing the issues. Do not ADD to the problem. Could strive to take away from the problem.)
Since you are willing to back off and have J & G date without you? Why are you not willing to back off and let G sort this business out with J? Let G own their emotional baggage instead of doing the work for G?
Let it be what it will be. It's hard to FEEL. But it is VERY easy to do. Just decide to keep your nose clean and do all you could do in this case. Have you done it? Yup. Now stand back and wait and see.
Why are you not willing to let it be right now? What is your need not going met so that you CAN be willing to let it be right now and wait patiently?
Hang in there!

Lens for D50
I have a D50 with Tamron lens 28-85 mm and would like to upgrade the lens to Nikkor with a fixed aperture at f/2.8. What do you suggest to buy as a mid zoom lens?
#1. "RE: Lens for D50" | In response to Reply # 0Floridian Nikonian since 11th Feb 2007Wed 03-Aug-11 06:01 PM
The 17-55 f2.8 would probably be the best fit. You could also look at the 24-70 f2.8. Those would be your options for new lenses, but you also might be able to find used a 28-70 f2.8 or 35-70 f2.8, which both have good reputations.
Do you need an f2.8 lens? There are some pretty good options that are smaller, lighter, and less expensive if you don't, and you could pair a less expensive zoom with a 35 f1.8 and/or 50 f1.8 when you need the wider aperture. For example, a 16-85 along with 35 f1.8 and 50 f1.8 would cost less than just a 17-55.
#2. "RE: Lens for D50" | In response to Reply # 0MEMcD Nikonian since 24th Dec 2007Thu 04-Aug-11 02:44 AM
Hi Mario,
Welcome to Nikonians!
If you want a Nikkor constant aperture f/2.8 zoom, the 17-55mm would be my first choice on a DX body. I have found the 17-55mm to be a much more useful range than the 24-70mm, 28-70mm, or 35-70mm on a DX body. One thing to keep in mind is the 17-55mm is significantly heavier than your D50. Remember that "Fast Glass" is addictive.
Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!
Best Regards,
#3. "RE: Lens for D50" | In response to Reply # 2sardinella Registered since 01st Aug 2011Thu 04-Aug-11 01:55 PM
Thanks guys for your help. Yes I think the f/2.8 is a bit too much for me. What I really need is a good lens for poorly lit places such as a church. I get very granulated pics with my Tamron lens 28-85mm because my aperture' maximum at 28mm is 3.5. I want to get the pics right in this church but have not managed yet. I also increased the ISO to 1600 and the black keeping coming granulated and there is no sharpness. I was thinking of buying a good lens for this but maybe the 35mm f/1.8 will do the job or even the 50 mm f/1.8, though I still cannot understand how people get decent pics with Tamron lens mounted on a Nikon like mine.
#4. "RE: Lens for D50" | In response to Reply # 3blw Nikonian since 18th Jun 2004Thu 04-Aug-11 04:40 PM
> my aperture' maximum at 28mm is 3.5.
Yep. This is a common misunderstanding. Those fast and expensive f/2.8 zooms are... a half a stop faster than f/3.5. That's the difference between 1/45th and 1/60th in shutter speed! It's good to have that additional speed, but it sure won't change the game.
An f/1.8 might - that's about two stops faster, or 4x the shutter speed. That moves your shutter speed from 1/45th to 1/180th, which is quite a difference.
> I also increased the ISO to 1600 and the black keeping coming granulated and there is no sharpness.
Is the sharpness in the area of focus, or not? If not, no big deal, it's not in focus anyway. If so, the problem isn't the lens - it's your ability to hold the camera still during the long shutter speed. You need either a faster lens, a flash, or a tripod.
> cannot understand how people get decent pics with Tamron lens mounted on a Nikon like mine.
It's nothing to do with Tamron, nor Nikon. It's all about technique and what it can do (and, sometimes, can't). The "granulated" look in the blacks is due to underexposure, and that can be cured in camera. But you may need a tripod for that, and even that only works if the subject isn't moving (much).

Events & Training
ARCCA provides a programme of events and training courses to help use the High Performance Computing (HPC) Cluster.
Live Chat: ARCCA hosts a text chat service for two hours every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, which is accessible via Lync and Skype on Cardiff University imaged machines, and through a web browser for Linux and Mac users without Skype. Questions and inquiries regarding all of ARCCA's services are welcome, and if we can't help on line we can arrange to meet in person afterwards. The URLs for connecting to the service are displayed on Raven's Message of the Day each time you log in.
Drop-In Sessions: An member of ARCCA staff will be on hand in the Haydn Ellis coffee shop on the First and Third Thursday of each month from 3pm to 4pm as part of the cross-departmental Data Clinic. Questions and problems will be welcomed. In addition we are planning further drop-in sessions across the university, initially in the Trevithick library at the Queens buildings. Dates and times will be announced via the ARCCA community mailing list and displayed on the Message of the Day.
These courses are based around the ARCCA system but will also be applicable to research and code development performed on departmental clusters as well as desktop/laptop systems. Training ranges from introductory modules for users new to advanced research computing, through to more advanced topics such as code optimisation for more experienced users.
The majority of the courses and workshops will be classroom taught with hands-on tutorials examples.
If you think a specific course or workshop would be beneficial for a sub-group of your school or department (up to 10 people), please let us know and we will try to tailor the course to meet your requirements and run it at a convenient time within the school (subject to available facilities).
Course duration ranges from half-day (three hours) through to two days in length. Specific specialist courses will be run sequentially to form week-long workshops.

You could try using iolist_to_binary before sending the query to the gen_server, which will create a single binary from your heterogeneous list of lists and binaries. Profiling it first would make sense though. Sounds like you're worrying too much about problems that you don't have yet. -bob

From the BBC:
1945: Rejoicing at end of war in Europe
The Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, has officially announced the end of the war with Germany.
In a message broadcast to the nation from the Cabinet room at Number 10, he said the ceasefire had been signed at 0241 yesterday at the American advance headquarters in Rheims.
Huge crowds, many dressed in red, white and blue, gathered outside Buckingham Palace in London and were cheered as the King, Queen and two Princesses came out onto the balcony.
Earlier tens of thousands of people had listened intently as the King's speech was relayed by loudspeaker to those who had gathered in Trafalgar Square and Parliament Square.
In it he paid tribute to the men and women who had laid down their lives for victory as well as to all those who had "fought valiantly" on land, sea and in the air...

From The Telegraph:
VE Day: 8th May 1945 as it would have happenedMuch more and great pictures here.
We relive the first VE Day celebrations on 8th May 1945, updating you on events as they unfolded on that historic day
13:00Reports are coming in of a shortage of flags across this now bedecked nation, with some enterprising salesmen cashing in.
A retired guardsman reports that he just went out to buy Allied flags to decorate his house but was only offered a Union flag the size of a handkerchief for six shillings. A larger one was £5 and a Russian flag was £2 10s. He did not dare ask the price of the Stars and Stripes.
But the mood remains buoyant. In Barker's department store in Kensington one woman says: "I've been in so many different queues since the war, it'll be a change to join a flag queue."...
Meanwhile, in Canada:
VE Day celebrations in Toronto, Ont., May 1945.Photo : National Film Board
On April 30, 1945, Hitler committed suicide.
On May 5, German forces in North-West Europe surrendered. Victory in Europe, or VE, Day was officially celebrated three days later.
In Germany, where the Canadian Army fought right to the last day, soldiers were too relieved to celebrate very much. In Paris and London, Canadians joined people in the streets in an outpouring of emotion. In Toronto, thousands danced in the streets while three Mosquito aircraft dropped tickertape overhead.
Most Canadian cities and towns held religious services of thanksgiving. Frustrations built up after years of wartime controls and rationing led to riots and looting in some places, but nowhere else on the scale of those in Halifax ( see The Halifax VE Day Riots ).
The war was not yet over - the war with Japan was still underway - but the major threat of Nazi Germany had ended....
That's from the Canadian War Museum where there are some great archival links.
"A Good Day"Check out the Canadian Encyclopedia for much more.
Mackenzie King, who was in San Francisco on 7 May attending the founding conference of the United Nations, wrote in his diary: "This has been a good day — a happy day [...] one in which the burden has been greatly lightened from the knowledge that Nazi militarism has, at last, been destroyed."
In a radio address the next day, Mackenzie King told Canadians, "You have helped to rid the world of a great scourge." The celebrating started across North America on 7 May, but subsided when people learned it had not been confirmed. When confirmation did come at 9 a.m. EDT on 8 May, celebrations resumed, in many places even more fervently than the day before.
Among the first Canadians to celebrate were the sailors on naval and merchant ships on the Atlantic, and soldiers and airmen based in Europe. Their long ordeal would soon be coming to an end, although many would still be tasked with providing security to occupied Germany, and bringing aid to the Netherlands, where the Dutch were desperate for emergency food and medical supplies distributed by Canadian forces. Across the Netherlands, Canadians were cheered and welcomed as heroes.....
From the US today, via Military Times, to mark this day in history:
U.S. Capitol flyover marks 70th anniversary of V-E Day
(photo AP)
During the Second World War within just 6 years — the US military progressed from hand-built wooden biplanes, to powerful jet engines to ballistic missiles and the atomic bomb.
More than 40 vintage aircraft of World War II will fill the skies over the nation's capital Friday in tribute to the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe (V-E) Day.
Fifteen flying formations will form up near Leesburg, Virginia, and follow the Potomac River southeast toward Washington.
But unlike the usual "river run" of modern commercial flights into Reagan National Airport, the venerable war birds will bank over the Lincoln Memorial, overflying the National World War II Memorial, head east past the Washington Monument along Independence Avenue, turning south as they pass over the National Air and Space Museum near the Capitol. The first formation is expected to fly just 1,000 feet over the Lincoln Memorial at about 12:10 p.m....

Video: "...The cancer of extremism within Islam...
By The Numbers - The Untold Story of Muslim Opinions & Demographics
Published on 10 Dec 2015
The Clarion Project
By the Numbers is an honest and open discussion about Muslim opinions and demographics. Narrated by Raheel Raza, president of Muslims Facing Tomorrow, this short film is about the acceptance that radical Islam is a bigger problem than most politically correct governments and individuals are ready to admit. Is ISIS, the Islamic State, trying to penetrate the U.S. with the refugee influx? Are Muslims radicalized on U.S. soil? Are organizations such as CAIR, who purport to represent American Muslims accepting and liberal or radicalized with links to terror organizations?

Holocaust Memorial Day 2016: 10 reasons it's essential we never forget this uniquely evil event
By Mark Piggott
27 January 2016
On 27 January 2016, Britain marks the 71st anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest of the Nazi death camps. Overall, six million Jews were murdered in a systematic attempt to erase all traces of the Jewish race from Europe. Now, as Europe is once more contending with millions of migrants fleeing war and persecution, we must heed the lessons of the Holocaust, or Shoah, more than ever....

Doing Stupid Stuff Because You Lost a Bet
Posted March 13th, 2014 @ 11:21am
Have you ever lost a bet and had to do something stupid?
I know I have, but never anything as dumb as these two examples.
According to the Daily Mail, a New Zealand man lost a bet and legally changed his name to, get ready for this, Full Metal Havok More Sexy N Intelligent Than Spock And All The Superheroes Combined With Frostnova.
And here's one with video evidence...this guy lost a bet and had to dance on a busy street corner for 30 minutes!
Stupid??? YES....BUT you gotta give both these guys credit for paying up!

But I'm not going to abandon my friend. I'm too damned glad he's back in my life, even if it's just for a short time.
I'm scared I'll say something stupid. Or burst out crying the next time he's over. Or that I won't be able to be a good friend. Or won't know how. Or hell, I'm just scared
I've never had a chance to say goodbye before someone close to me has died. I just want to fix it, yk? I want to pretend it's not happening.

Hello Ladies, I will try to make this short!
*Short background, MIL and FIL are on VERY limited contact, due to past behavior. They no longer visit every month. They send DS and DD cards on birthdays and Christmas and that's all. It's been fabulous!!! Meanwhile SIL is CO, even more fabulous! We have only had to be around SIL once in the past 6 months (due to a funeral), but we didn't speak.
Now for present issue. My DH's cousin who we are very close to and my children adore, is getting married. She called yesterday to see if DD could be her flower girl, I immediately said yes. Then she tells me CO SIL is one of her bridesmaids. Cue CBF from me on the other side of the phone.
So my dilemma is how to deal with this situation. I want my DD to be a part of the wedding, and I can't ask CIL to axe SIL from the bridal party. Do I constantly stay with DD (who will be 3 at time of wedding) because if I'm not around SIL and MIL will try to play mommy to my DD. MIL also likes to play GMOTY when she is around her family, so I will be extra cautious for this.
Has anyone been in a similar situation, how did you deal with all the potential drama?

Skill Level Beginner
We're looking at a PDF with some comments from a couple different reviewers, and I want to talk about working with these comments as they exist in a PDF. A lot of people don't quite understand that the Comment layer kind of sits apart from the Content layer of a PDF. I mean one thing is obviously that you can hide and show them, as I showed in previous video: you can like hide all the comments and show them. That gives you a clue that they're kind of like on a different layer, though there is no such thing as a Comments layer. But for example, when you print this document you can choose to hide or show the comments when you print.
If I press Command+P and Ctrl+P to bring up the dialog box, by default comments will print. That's what Document and Markups mean. And you can see a preview of how the comments will appear in the printout. You can choose, when you print, not to include the markup, to just include the Document. So it's able to hide the comments when you print, and somebody using Reader can do the same thing. I'm going to click Cancel out of here. Now similar to that is creating a summary of the comments.
You can create a summary of the comments from the Print dialog box or from the Comments List menu over here. We're going to go to Create Comment Summary, so you can see the different choices that you have first. Create Comment Summary lets you create another page that has all of these comments, so it's a little easier to follow-- especially if you get a PDF back with a lot of comments, and you'd rather commit those edits to the native file from a printout rather than flipping back and forth to Acrobat to read them.
So, for example, let's just take a look at the default settings. Just leave everything as is. I just chose Create Comment Summary, and we'll click that button. This will give you better idea of what I'm talking about. So what it's done is created a new document. See the name of it, Summary of Comments? And it put the actual page on the left and it assigned numbers to each edit. Now, on the right, it shows you number 1, the author is Marcia, what the subject was-- meaning the kind of comment--the date, and the contents of that comment.
So you could print this out. So this is actually--see how it's created 16 pages? So that was page 1, and page 3 had no comments, page 5 had no comments, so 5 out of 16. This is actually page 3, so it's counting the comments page as a separate page. Let's close this document without saving changes and try something a little different. We'll go back to Create a Comment Summary, and now these options will make a little bit more sense to you. So the default is to assign a number to each comment and then create a separate page with the contents of each comment.
That's what we just saw: document and comments with sequence numbers on separate pages. But you can have a document and comments with connector lines instead of numbers on separate pages, which I think is a little unwieldy. Maybe a little better would be Document and comments with connector lines on single pages. Let's take a look at what that looks like. So it miniaturizes each page, and it draws connector lines, and gives you the details of what's happening for each comment on the same page.
So it's just created an 8-page document. Now it keeps generating pages for document pages that have no comments, but that's easily rectified. I just cancelled out of there. This time, we'll go back to Create Comment Summary, and we'll turn off pages containing no comments, so we don't want those created. So you can also create a comment summary with comments only, or you can have it by your side. You can print it out or keep it. And then you also might want to change the font size, and how comments are sorted, and what kind of comments are included. By default, all the comments are, but if you have modified what you're viewing here on the right, you can say Only the comments that are currently showing.
So that's how you create a comment summary. Now, notice that you can also jump straight through to Print with the Comment Summary, and it's going to use your last settings for the kind of comment summary you want created. So you can see it's going to print nine pages. And if we go to the next page, if we go to page two, you'll see it's going to include the summary of comments there, but it's not going to include any comment pages for the other ones, because we said, "Don't generate those." Also, as you can see at the very bottom of the Print dialog box, there is shortcut to summarize comments.
So if you wanted to, you could jump right to Summarize Comments from the Print dialog box, rather than using the dropdown menu in the Comments List. The last way that we can deal with comments as belonging to their own layer is by exporting and importing comments. So let's say that the two reviewers who created this--let's say this is a huge PDF, and they didn't want to send this huge PDF back to you. They could send you just the comments, and then you can import those comments. So to export comments from a PDF, you go to the Comments List dropdown menu and choose Export All to Data File.
Its ends with .FDF. So I'm just call this C3 newsletter comments and then somebody could then just e-mail that to you. So the FDF file is much smaller than the full newsletter file. We can take a look at it here. The FDF file's only 12k whereas the newsletter is 1.5 megabytes. So we'll open up a plain newsletter. This doesn't have any comments at all. We get that FDF file, and then to import them, we go right back to the same menu and choose Import Data File.
So, where is the FDF file? That's it. We get a little alert here, because I have done a couple of Save As's to this document, and so it's thinking it's a different version. Basically, it has to be the same document that you had exported the documents, the comments from. That's the kind that you need to import them into. But obviously the PDF that our reviewers had is a different document than the one we have, because there is two copies, right? So that's okay. We know that it's the same document. I'll just click Yes, and they become imported into this document. So it's a lot faster to send comments back and forth if you just export the comments file and import them back in.
And you could have multiple reviewers export their own comments, and then you could import those, one right after the other, to the same document to get all their comments back together again. So I know I've just jammed a whole lot of information into one video, but they all share the same thing: the fact that comments exist in their own sort of quasi layer. And I want you know that it's easy to understand how you can quickly show, hide, summarize, print, not print, and export, and import them.

Municipalities Collaborating in Public Health: The Danish Smoking Prevention and Cessation Partnership
AbstractThis study explored the Smoking Prevention and Cessation Partnership (SPCP) which builds upon a collaboration between two Danish municipalities targeted at the prevention of tobacco smoking. The aim of the study was to describe the processes of SPCP, to examine the difficulties this collaboration faced, and to assess how these experiences could be used to improve future partnership collaboration. We employed qualitative methodology comprising 12 semi-structured one-to-one interviews with SPCP's stakeholders and an analysis of the partnership documents and reports. The findings suggested that the main potentials of the partnership were the personal relations between the members and stakeholders with the possibilities of the creation of new connections with other actors. Barriers to successful partnership building were the implementation of the new Local Government Reform as a competing task, and that the two municipalities were heterogenic in respect to organizational issues and working methods. Other impediments included the lack of continuity in leadership, the lack of clarity regarding the form of collaboration and roles, as well as different expectations of the stakeholders. We conclude that four factors remain critical for partnerships. The first is the clarity of the collaborative effort. Second, partnerships need to take into account the structural circumstances and culture/value systems of all stakeholders. Third is the impact of contextual factors on the development of the partnership; and the fourth factor is the bearing of personal/individual factors on the partnership e.g., personal engagement in the project. Early attention to these four factors could contribute to more effective partnership working.

In April last we drew attention to the modern scourge of drug addiction and in particular to the growing use among young people of pep pills and the like. The matter has received further publicity by Press reports of prosecutions of certain prominent personalities in the entertainment world. At the Court of Appeal, Lord Parker, Lord Chief Justice, drew attention to the large number of young people who idolize these so-called "stars", some of whom openly advocate the use of hallucinatory drugs. This feature of the problem gives grave concern to all who are concerned with the physical and moral welfare of the rising generation.
Before the parliamentary recess Miss Alice Bacon, Minister of State, Home Office, discussing the menace of the hallucinatory drugs said: "Our young people do take what some of these pop stars say quite seriously. What sort of society are we going to create if everyone wants to escape from reality into a dream world?", she asked; and went on: "Today there are th9se who see in society's attitude to drug-taking the opportunity for questioning traditional values and social judgements of all kinds. For some young people drug-taking is a way of life to which they beckon the impressionable, the curious, the frustrated, and the demoralized. Insidiously or openly, unwittingly or wittingly, the young are being taught the paraphernalia of psychedelic experience and the catch-phrases of the drug cult. This seems to be the real challenge of soft drugs, and it is growing. The Government believes that it is time for responsible influence to check this trend. It is time to make clear that teenage drug-taking is ill-advised, if not dangerous, to personality and health. It is time to rebut the claim of those who profess to make mystics out of the immature. This is the challenge which all sections of society must take up, and the Government is prepared to do its part". These are grave words. They bring into focus the dimensions of the problem.
There is, of course, beneath every moral problem the root of human depravity. While it is the proper responsibility of Governments to endeavour to control human conduct when it becomes anti-social, no human legislation, secular or religious, can touch the root from which that conduct springs. After being challenged by critics who were most precise in the performance of their religious formalities, our Lord stated this truth pointedly when He said:
"That which proceedeth out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, evil thoughts proceed, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, covetings, wickednesses, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, railing, pride, foolishness: all these things proceed from within, and defile the man" (Mark 7.20-23).
These solemn words are verified in human experience since man's fall in Adam. In the Christian Faith they are basic and fundamental. The Christian gospel is meaningless unless this analysis of man's predicament be accepted. And they place his malady beyond human solution. It needed the incarnation, atoning death, and triumphant resurrection of the Saviour to provide the glorious divine answer to this great problem. It is a tragedy of our times that many turn away to other expedients and miss the contentment peace which full committal to Christ brings. The privilege of born-again believers to live and testify the gospel and to commend the Christian way of life in this 20th century remains a instant challenge. Let us not fear being dubbed as different. Men of the world are unimpressed by our testimony unless they observe the inner strength which makes us independent of the modern props they consider so essential to life: Let it be seen that
"Lowly hearts that lean on Thee
Are happy anywhere."
Many modern addictions which are harmful to body and soul arise from the restless quest to escape from the bondage to which we have referred. If "man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him for ever", then other objectives will leave him unsatisfied and frustrated. The longings of the human heart can only be realized in the knowledge and enjoyment of God: "This is life eternal, hat they should know Thee the only true God, and Him whom Thou didst send, even Jesus Christ" (John 17.3). The apostle Paul discovered this wonderful secret as he testified, "I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord" (Philippians 3.8). Faber's beautiful lines capture the same theme:
"Only to sit and think of God,
Oh! what a joy it is!
To think the thought, to breathe the name,
Earth has no higher bliss.
There's not a craving in the mind
Thou dost not meet and still;
There's not a wish the heart can have
Which Thou dost not fulfil.
0 little heart of mine! shall pain
Or sorrow make thee moan,
When all this God is all for thee,
A Father all thine own?
With gentle swiftness lead me on,
Dear God! to see Thy face;
And meanwhile in my narrow heart
Oh! make Thyself more space."

Za'atar Bread Rolls (Manaiesh Bi Za'atar)
Total Time
Prep 1 hr
Cook 10 mins
From the cookbook Mediterranean Dishes by Diane Seed. Za'atar (or zahtar) is easy to make and several good recipes are found on this site. I have used an automatic bread machine to prepare the dough. This yields a light textured bread.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 egg, beaten
- 8 ounces tepid water (more or less depending on your bread machine and or or the type of flour you use)
- 7 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 cups unbleached white flour
- 2 -3 tablespoons za'atar spice mix, to taste (homemade is best)
- MANUAL: Dissolve the yeast in 3 tablespoons tepid water. Next add the egg, 4 tablespoons olive oil and the sugar. In large bowl combine the flour and salt. Gradually stir in the yeast mixture and add the tepid water, enough to make a dough ball. On a floured surface, knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. Put dough in an oversized bag and allow to rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes. *Proceed with recipe where indicated.
- BREAD MACHINE: Add all ingredients to the bread machine according to manufacturer's instructions EXCEPT for the za'atar and add ONLY 4 tablespoons of the olive oil. Once dough is done, remove from bread pan and place dough in an oversized plastic bag in a bowl. Allow to proof in a warm area for about 45 minutes.
- *Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Divide the dough into six pieces. On a floured cutting board shape each piece of dough to form an oblong.
- Arrange the oblongs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic (cling) wrap and leave for 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil and the za'atar. Brush the mixture evenly over each bread loaf, pressing gently into the dough making "dimple" patterns with your fingers.
- Bake for 10 minutes. While waiting for bread to bake, belly dance.
- Serve warm.

This bread is fantastic! I used the manual method and the directions were easy to follow and produced wonderful results. The bread came out soft and light and we just loved the za'atar topping. Thanks for sharing a keeper! Made for the Best of 2011 event, recommended by awalde
I made this yesterday using the machine to do the mixing and kneading. We had friends for dinner and she had said that she would like to try something simple to see if she liked Middle East flavors. She loved this bread and is ready to try something "more daring". Thanks CG, I now have a budding convert to the fabulous flavors of NA/ME cuisine. :D
I love it! The rolls are delightfully light and tender, and the za'atar is a good accompaniment. I used 2 tablespoons honey instead of sugar, out of personal preference. I needed about 3 tablespoons extra flour, maybe because of the honey. The recipe yielded 6 rolls of about 145 grams each. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe with us. While I like the za'atar, I'm also thinking of different toppings for these excellent rolls.

Just got the 62 degree loft about 2 weeks ago, and I have been playing and practicing with it regularly. I really like the club alot! Its not too heavy and is appealing to your eye at setup. With my 62, you can take bigger cuts at the ball when within 50 yards and not have to worry a whole lot about blasting it over as long as you make good, crisp contact. Around the greens, ITS GREAT! the ball just pops into the air and lands soft. I am seriously considering replacing my cleveland's for a couple of these vokey's. Its tough to give up those zip grooves tho!
This club is great
Really good performer
Love the wedge, great deal
Excellent feel. Highly recommend. And a good price.

I wouldnt say we are desparate for another striker. Rooney and Saha were great together last season and could easily get at least 20+ goals a season for us Rossi Smith Solkjaer and possibly frasor Campbell could be adequet backupSort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
We need a top class goal getting partner for Rooney. Saha does gel with Rooney, but will he stay injury free? As for Smithie; I love him, but he's just coming back from the most horrendous injury AND needs to readapt to playing as a striker having not quite made it as Keane's replacement. Rossi is a newcomer so I think: dig deep in those pockets and get some young dynamic frontman to push for a place now and for the future: Torres / Tevez / Defoe even...

I don't share your optimism.
Smith will never score 25 goals per season. Saha gets injured too often and may or may not score 25 goals per season. Rossi is still unproven and may not be ready for the Premiership. SAF suggested he may loan him out, which might lead you to believe he shares a similar line of thought. Rooney is class, but won't score 25 goals per season. He's a different type of player. Ole gunner has been out for 2 years, I admit its early days but he hasn't looked great in pre season.
In a nutshell, for the reasons stated above, I don't think any of our current strikers will get 25 goals per season. You can argue why do we need a guy who can score 25 goals a season, but that's just my take on it. I would love to see a striker come in who can play off Rooney and get 25 a season, just like Ruud did. I know Scholes is back and will add to the goal count from the midfield, however, I'm not convinced it will make up.

Scholes is bast his prime and hasnt been playing well even before that eye injury. Smith would be lucky to score 10 goals let alone 20. Face it united if saf doesnt sign you a quality striker then you are going to be left short .

Although a prolific goal scorer is important its just as important to have goal scoring midfielders - Gerard and Lampard were top scorers for Liverpool and Chelsea, with 20 goals each in all competitions. Both teams won a trophy. Arsenal with Henry scoring 33 goals in all competitions won nothing.
As for Saha and Rooney - Saha scored 15 goals in just 30 matches, Rooney scored 19 goals in 48. So its quite possible for both to get 20 plus goals in all competitions, especially if Saha can remain injury free.
Solkjaer Scholes Smith Saha & Roo I reckon have all 5 up front, and Carrick is soooooo amazing give him midfield on his own, then usual defence, and put Fletcher in goal.
Saha is quality. Get Senna and another winger and our 1st team can compete with Chelski. Shame with injuries, the likes of Silvestre, Fletcher and a lesser extent Park and O'Shea quite frankly aren't of the same calibre as that on Chelski's bench
scholes will be effective as will ronaldo ,guess you forgot them lol
Ronaldo & My mum?
Tevez would be nice as well though

IRVING, Texas There was no near-miss for Stacy Lewis this time.
After six runner-up finishes in her previous 16 tournaments, Lewis took control in the final round of the North Texas LPGA Shootout, shooting a 7-under 64 for a six-stroke victory over Meena Lee.
With consecutive birdies at the end, Lewis finished at 16-under 268 and with the LPGA Tours largest margin of victory since Jiyai Shin won the 2012 Womens British Open by nine.
It was the ninth career LPGA Tour victory for Lewis, her first since August in the Womens British Open, and will boost the Texan from No. 3 to No. 2 in the world ranking.
Lewis made a putt from about 25 feet off the fringe at the 540-yard seventh for an eagle. She followed that with consecutive birdies to make the turn at 14 under and up by three strokes.
Lee, also in the final group, shot 70. Michelle Wie, who closed within two before faltering late, had a 67 to finish third at 9 under.
Langer victorious on Champions Tour
THE WOODLANDS, Texas Bernhard Langer won the Champions Tours Insperity Invitational for the third time, closing with a 1-under 71 for a one-stroke victory over Fred Couples.
Langer finished at 11-under 205 at The Woodlands to become the 10th 20-time winner on the 50-and-over tour.
The 56-year-old German player also won the 2007 event at Augusta Pines and successfully defended his title in 2008 at The Woodlands. He opened this season with a victory in Hawaii.
Couples, the former University of Houston player who won the 2010 event, finished with a 67.
Colin Montgomerie was third at 9 under after a 70.
Esteban Toledo, the winner last year, was 7 under after a 71.
Aguilar eagles 18th to win
SINGAPORE (AP) -- Chiles Felipe Aguilar won The Championship at Laguna National, holing out for eagle from 142 yards on the par-4 18th hole for a 10-under 62 and a one-stroke victory.
Aguilar played the back nine in 8-under 28 and finished at 22-under 266. He birdied the par-5 15th and holed a 10-foot putt for another birdie on the par-3 17th.
Aguilar also won a European Tour event in Indonesia in 2008.
American David Lipsky (65) and Denmarks Anders Hansen (67) tied for second.

Every bit as good as I remember from childhood!
This book is about a mouse family, the Frisbys, that lives in a garden. Five days before Moving Day, Timothy falls sick with pneumonia. What will Ms. Frisby do? I liked this book because when the problem starts, you want to know how it gets resolved. I specifically liked the story of the rats of NIMH and how they escaped.
This book could be used as a read aloud for older students (4th/5th grade). They could make predictions and inferences about the characters along the way. This book could also be used as an introduction to animal testing for a science class. students could do further research on animal testing, and then write a persuasive paper on whether or not it should be legal.
Mrs. Frisby is a widowed mouse living in the garden with her four children. It's a great winter home, but then Timothy gets sick and as spring moving day approaches and the farmer prepares to plow the field, she's willing to do anything to save her son.
A cute enough story, but I'm afraid I could never quite get over the fact that I was reading about a mouse (they give me the shivers...). The story starts off a little slow - the eponymous rats don't make an appearance for awhile, though when they do things rather pick up - and that feeling may have been in part because I started listening to this as an audio, which is much slower for me than reading. The rats' story is, I think, more interesting than Mrs. Frisby's! I also may have liked it better if I read it when I was younger, much the same feeling I had with The Wind in the Willows and The Tale of Desperaux. Though it fell a little flat for me, it's one that I'd certainly recommend to the right reader, someone who enjoyed the two titles I already mentioned or The Borrowers.
This book is full of sexist characters and plot points but still hooked me.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0689710682, Paperback)There's something very strange about the rats living under the rosebush at the Fitzgibbon farm. But Mrs. Frisby, a widowed mouse with a sick child, is in dire straits and must turn to these exceptional creatures for assistance. Soon she finds herself flying on the back of a crow, slipping sleeping powder into a ferocious cat's dinner dish, and helping 108 brilliant, laboratory-enhanced rats escape to a utopian civilization of their own design, no longer to live "on the edge of somebody else's, like fleas on a dog's back."
This unusual novel, winner of the Newbery Medal (among a host of other accolades) snags the reader on page one and reels in steadily all the way through to the exhilarating conclusion. Robert O'Brien has created a small but complete world in which a mother's concern for her son overpowers her fear of all her natural enemies and allows her to make some extraordinary discoveries along the way. O'Brien's incredible tale, along with Zena Bernstein's appealing ink drawings, ensures that readers will never again look at alley rats and field mice in the same way. (Ages 9 to 12) --Emilie Coulter

Having no one to help her with her problems, a widowed mouse visits the rats whose former imprisonment in a laboratory made them wise and long lived.
