The summer of 2012 I threw all of my efforts towards a Jak & Daxter costume for my teenager, complete with 4.5′ Daxter that he wore strapped to his back for 12 straight hours through the Exhibitor's Hall. Totally worth it and STILL the best costume I ever made (although not knitted), he got tweeted and favored at the Naughty Dog booth. True story. So I only had time to make a Galaxy Quest shirt for myself and my willing friend. Although I got stopped and admired, I vowed to go more legit for 2013.
Last summer, I was blessed with the miracle of acquiring two-day passes. Thus, the challenge of two costumes was born. Since I am forever hopeful that the Justice League will be resurrected (yes, still) and well-cast, I wanted to pay homage to the baddest, awesomest brunette from Amazonia. Although nearly at the climax of my decade-long midlife crisis, not at all cougarish, and only an aspiring 6.5 vs. Linda Carter's arguable 10 (even now), sporting a one piece bustier/short-short while circulating among my Comic Con brethren would just not do. But I could knit a shrug with an intarsia WW logo across the back, and manga-style leggings that resemble her ass-kicking go-go boots. Knitted cuffs and crown and lasso of truth and done. Since Into Darkness was arguably the best sequel ever since Two Towers and Empire Strikes Back, Lt. Uhura was the obvious choice for day 2. With two weeks left before Comic Con, I searched my books and the internet for a basic pattern I could alter into a red Starship officer's dress and pretend I was Zoe channeling Lt. Uhura. My feeble 6.5 vs. Zoe Soldana's 10+ incurred an epic challenge that would require considerable work (and Spanx, dammit) to pull it off. Thanks to Knits for Nerds and the basic trek girl dress, I was able to alter and add the black trim for the full effect. Both days I got stopped and selfied with strangers and pulled into booths and recognized!
So, while I wait for the Powers That Be to release the pre-registration email, I shall ponder what to do for 2014…the fun of knitted cos-play is so delicious a challenge, and a frequent war cry of mine is "if it exists, it can be knit". Inherently a vampire junkie, I have never been much of a Zombie zealot. But my son kept watching Walking Dead and I tried to resist, I really did. I couldn't tear my eyes off season four and there was Daryl, all bad ass and squinty. And then I saw it, the leather vest with angel wings. It imprinted on me, and my mission is now clear. A chart will be made, a vest pattern written and/or altered, my thigh high Doc Martens donned in July, and Daryl Dixon will be honored via knitted cos-play.

Check, please
The Senate version of ethics-reform legislation does nothing to prevent lobbyists from collecting and bundling large wads of contributions from clients to key lawmakers. Here's my suggestion: allow bundling, but require that the money be presented in the form of a giant novelty check. With press invited for photos, of course.
So let's take a good look at some of your noteworthy Bay State elected officials, who promised to clean up campaign financing, ethics, pensions, and, of course, the bloated, broke, dysfunctional transportation agencies. Drummer: prepare your rim shots. While we wait for meaningful reform, we can only laugh to keep from crying.
Cleaning upFirst up for a zinger, surely, must be Senate President Therese Murray. Her mantra, "reform before revenue," has already gone up in smoke. Perhaps a more realistic timetable would be "reform before Rapture."
Since taking over for her mentor, Robert Travaglini, Murray hasn't exactly cleaned up the old revolving-door lobbyist/legislator relationships. But Travaglini is cleaning up — in his new job of high-priced, all-purpose lobbyist.
All those fundraisers for Murray at Joe Tecce's Restaurant are now paying off for Travaglini, whose access to the president helped him earn nearly $300,000 last year in lobbying fees. That included $60K from Suffolk Construction Company, which hired him to help secure an $8 million contract to renovate Logan Airport's E Terminal. Suffolk got the contract — undoubtedly as the result of a fair and open process!
Who needs lobbying-and-ethics reform when things are working that smoothly?
And the Senate's ethics-reform bill guts the pesky State Ethics Commission, which tries to investigate, you know, ethics allegations.
That office, you'll recall, had the temerity to ask former Speaker Sal DiMasi for materials relating to his own alleged improper backroom deals. DiMasi refused, under the legal theory that it's none of your damn business how a sweetheart provision for ticket brokers got tucked into a bill, or how a big contract was awarded, both benefiting clients of DiMasi pal Richard Vitale.
Of course, if we're roasting DiMasi for that, we'll also have to take a shot at his successor Robert DeLeo — along with the rest of the House Democrats, who kicked off "reform season" by voting to reward DiMasi's secretiveness with another term on the throne.
DiMasi is now gone, but his documents remain carefully guarded from prying investigators; I have not heard one House Democrat publicly call for them to be released. Sunlight being the best disinfectant, the representatives are courageously protecting the rights of the germs.
Is anyone responsible?Perhaps the biggest mystery, though, is how Governor Patrick managed to be the one to lose the public trust, in the midst of all this cowardice and inaction by the legislature.

Reviews for this host's other properties
We had a lovely stay with our 3&5-years old daughters (play ground is just around the corner). The apartament is nice and cosy, with comfortable livingroom. It is very close to the metro station and walking distance from Sagrada Familia and Park Guell. Owner was very helpful.
First contact with host was great, Mr. Fernando waited for us and explained everything. The apartment was very nice, close to metro and shopping center, spacious and everything was fully functional. As a comment, the floor was not very clean, but that is only negative thing we noticed. The terrace is great. We recomand this apartment, realy good for the price.
This is a very clean, simple and well located two-bedroom apartment. It is close to a metro station and you can easily walk through to the center of the city. There are also some very nice local places to eat and drink and good supermarket nearby. Fernando and Cynthia were very helpful and made our stay enjoyable.
A very good basic place to stay and enjoy Barcelona.

Hello, the flat is really nice.

Hello, Ana Watson!
This is the short summary of our attitude about the apartments we stayed in Barcelona, having booked it through your service. It is Sleek Apartment Near Magic Fountain. Its adress is Calle de la Palma 10 in Barcelona. The owner is Fernando Aguado.
The apartments are situated in a very quiet place, but at the same it is very close to the centre. At the time we arrived Cynthia, who was an assistant of the owner, met us and gave all the necessary information we needed concerning the apartments. It was clean, simply furnitured but in a comfortable way. On the whole we liked these apartments.
There were just some points that made us feel uncomfortable the first 2 days. The central heating did not work and it was very cold in the flat. The television did not work either. The iron and hairdryer were of no use because of its bad state. The iron surface was ruined and the hair-dryer began to burn instead of working.
It was strange to understand that waiting for our arrival for some hours inside the apartments it did not occur to the assistant to check if the central heating works at least. Though she did not forget to take 20 euro fee for our late arrival after 20:00 and left us in the frozen apartments in the fall time.
But after we applied to Cynthia, they sent us a worker next day who solved all the problems I have mentioned.
Due to it we were satisfied with the apartments and the service given in general.
Best regards,
Larisa Khromova
We had 5 fantastic days in Barcelona, the apartment was great, had everything we needed, we were met on our arrival day outside and told a little about the area and the trains! Apartment was clean and well equipped!! Perfect for 2 adults and 2 teenagers! I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone, thanks Fernando
Great place, in poblesec, not noisy! When we arrive at 1 pm. after a night flight,the Appart was not ready and the cleaning was not done , but we could left our luggages! We had the Appart around 4 PM. Tired but glad whith the cleaning! The girl who manaige the location is very Nice and helpfull! The Appart could have a big mirror somewhere and a shelf in the bathroom! Very good place!
The place was ok, there were some problems of course like the old towels (some had some stains), wifi doesnt work properly (it is an old modem so you have to reboot it every 5 minutes maybe) etc.
The issue with the old towels, we have informed the contact person and they have changed them so that was really nice. But seing that the house owner has such strict rules, the house itself is just a little bit messy. Of course I wouldnt care about the details if I am gonna stay only for a week, but if you are demanding so much from the people that are staying in your room, I would expect you to take care of the place a little bit more.
But overall its just for sleeping and taking a shower and from time to time eat at home. So I think that was fine, but I cannot say I am impressed.

Wir waren nun schon zum dritten Mal an diesem herrlichen Ort bei dieser so netten und gastfreundlichen Familie. Nicht nur wir freuen uns jedesmal, auch unsere Hündin freut sich besonders auf Fifi. Egal ob mit Hund oder ohne, mit Kindern oder ohne, dies hier ist Provence pur, es liegt absolut ideal und wir waren sicherlich nicht das letzte Mal bei Euch! Vielen Dank

Ein Stück Himmel auf Erden. Ein fantastischer Platz, um zu entspannen. Anne und Oliver leben Gemeinschaft, indem sie ihr Haus und Herz für Gäste öffnen. Außerdem ein toller Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge und einfach genial nach einer turbulenten Stadt wieder in diese Ruheoase zurückzukehren. Wir sagen "Danke" und kommen bestimmt einmal wieder.

Wir haben unbeschreiblich schöne 10 Tage bei Anne und Oliver verbracht. Nicht nur das schon auf den ersten Blick tolle und lieb eingerichtete Haus, sondern vor allem die Gastgeber, die ihr Haus für alle offen halten und mit allen teilen. Die Marmeladen von Anne sind Kandidaten für eine Goldmedaille. Sie schmecken himmlisch (und Anne verrät auch mal manche Kochgeheimnisse). Das schöne, rustikal eingerichtete Haus auf einem Hügel bietet einen super Blick über die Landschaft mit vielen Obstgärten und Weinbergen. Die Lage ist sehr günstig, denn das B&B liegt in einem Dreieck zwischen Nimes, Arles und Avignon, dazu ist es nicht weit in andere charmante Orte der Provence wie Uzes, Les Baux oder Saint Remy. Wer aber vor Ort entspannen will, kann baden oder Tennis spielen oder mit Fifi, der 4beinigen Freundin spielen. Danke an Anne und Oliver für die schöne Zeit, für die Gespräche beim Weingläschen, für die tollen Tipps und Infos über die aktuellen Märkte, für die Geheimnisse der französischen Küche und vor allem das Plaudern über das Leben und das Leben in Frankreich. Wir kommen gerne wieder, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefüllt.

We where lucky enough to be able to book with Anne and Oliver on short notice and could not be happier. They have a lovely home in the country side that is peaceful and quiet. Anne and Oliver where wonderful hosts and a pleasure to talk to. The rooms where very clean and they where more than happy to accommodate us and our 15 month old daughter - even providing a crib and toys. We would definitely try to stay with here again if we chose to spend time in this wonderful region of France again.

Formidable bouffée d'oxygène. Merci pour la simplicité et l'hospitalité. Tennis et piscine au rendez-vous. Famille sympathique et ambiance décontractée

We stayed 2 days at Anne and Olivier. What a fantastic place to stay. The owners were very nice and we felt welcome. The room and bathroom were beautiful. Clean and very well taken care of. The view was more than great. It looked like Tuscany in France. Delicious breakfast with homemade jams by Anne. We had no diner. A beautiful location for visiting Arles, Avignon, Uzès and Nîmes, An absolute must! R&R

The view from the swimming pool is truly stunning! Both Anne and Oliver were very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area and they were very welcoming hosts. The house is in a rural location but a short car ride to some lovely restaurants in Beaucaire. I am glad that we had the car so that we could explore the wider area.

Un très bel endroit, authentique, un confort très appréciable, de l'autonomie dans les déplacements grâce à un accès réservé aux visiteurs, et surtout un accueil très agréable et chaleureux des hôtes qui témoignent d'un véritable sens de l'hospitalité! Seul bémol, un petit-déjeuner qui mériterait peut-être quelques confitures maison et une plus grande variété de mets(nous sommes gourmands le matin!). Dans l'ensemble une très belle expérience à réitérer, nous n'avons pu profiter de la piscine, le temps était encore un peu frais! Merci en tout cas, Anne et Oliver pour cette découverte!

We spent two days in this beautiful B&B during the month of may. The B&B is charming, quiet, very clean and confortable... The family is very very kind so that it seemed to know them since long time ago. We really suggest to spend some days in this B&B Alma e Marco

We arrived later than plan due to getting a little lost but they were very accommodating and helpful. Their home is beautiful and their hospitality the best. We would definitely recommend this B & B to anyone headed to the Nimes area of France. Coni Meyers

Charming rural location with pool and wonderful view from breakfast on the deck. Anne and Oliver were very friendly and helpful. The B&B was difficult to find without a GPS - a sign on the main road would help. They loaned us their GPS while we were there. Susan and Jim

We loved the stay with this busy couple and their extended family as we needed the isolation away from the madding crowd and a year of intense work pressure. No television and little In the way of distractions in the immediate area were influential in our choice of accommodation. This hardworking couple were always busy and as such on one occasion we triggered the home alarm when returning home. The children were a delight and a credit to their parenting. The view was amazing from the other side of the house over an region that probably Van Gough trampled and painted. OK the room was basic in furniture style however it was home for nearly four weeks save for expeditions to outlying regions. We always intended to use thie B&B as a base for forays to other areas. The immediate locale needs a day or two for discovery but other areas within reach require more. Anne was a font of suggestion and recommended some amazing sights. We were compliant with Anne's request for breakfast after 9am given her school shuttle duties. She is so busy with her life and business. Oliver seems to work non-stop and even at home he is working into the night. He actually built the home, something which we found amazing. A dedicated worker who never stops. Eventually we had to leave this isolated and verdant paradise but our stay was one of serious relaxation compared to the previous bustle of French stays. We would totally Recommend if you prefer peace, quiet and seclusion.

We had a very nice stay for 3 nights in august 2012. The spacious room was very nice, and had a modern bathroom. The house was really great! The view from the swimming pool and the tennis court was outstanding. Breakfast was good with different kind of fresh bread. Anne and Oliver were very friendly. When we had dinner at their terrace, Oliver brought us a glass of wine. Anne had breakfast with the guests every morning. This place is close to les Alpilles, Avignon, Arles, Nimes. And of course you can just relax at the nice and clean swimming pool.

I and two friends stayed at this place for one night and it was really great. Anne and Oliver were very nice and helpful. We had dinner together. The feeling was really like at home with good friends. The experience at Anne et Oliver ROSS exceeded our expectation and it made our staying at France more memorable.

My sister, son and I had a great 2 day stay with Anne and Oliver Ross last month. They were both very hospitable and helpful in giving suggestions for our time spent in Provence. The rooms were very comfortable and the view very nice. The location was a great base for our time there. I would definitely stay with Anne and Oliver if I return to the area in the future.

I just got on here! I'm sure that there are more "Delawareans" on here, they may not make it all the way down the forum page to the region section! I'm "north of the ditch" (in Wilmigton).
Would like to meet others from the forum.

Discussion in 'Europe, Middle East and Asia' started by ChevyFan, Jan 24, 2007.
Who's interested in a GTG even to occur in Europe? This one may be harder to put together!
We have once a year a get together in Antwerp
There's a show "American power on wheels" there are people from al over Europe.
With proximally 2500 American Vehicles.
The owners of the American cars have free entrance but the visitors have to pay $10.
This show is a success for the last 15 years.
Every year we have more and more visitors.
May not be as hard as you thought.
Maybe we can get a banner made for that.
I can get you one, as soon as we have the permits. Then I have a date and the banner :tongue:
Further along that the rest of us, and presumed to be the hardest to orchestrate...lol:biggrin:
This is the flyer from last Year
Looks cool! I wish could go.:frown:
I know it's a long way from home but you are always welcome.
I wish I could come to the events in the states :frown:
I can post pictures here, and you can do the same from your events.
So we can share the experience
Here it is the date for the European GTG

text: Yes. But Orlando probably has no interest in that because they would have to take back the salary that they pay Darko. Maybe you take the one year hit to get some salaries you can dump next year, but you might have to pay the tax, and the best you can hope for as an upside is a bunch of picks, which can't be traded in consecutive years, so it's a long time payoff for a team hoping to move up NOW. Teams do S&Ts when they are going to get left empty handed, but in today's NBA of fiscal responsibility, deals like this are harder to pull off. Darko is actually pretty screwed now when it comes to a big contract. That's the reality of his situation.

Globally very satisfied with the apartment.
The main bedroom is located on the side of a heavy trafic street (carrer d'arago) so if you're sensitive to noise, take earplugs and it will be fine.
Also, just make sure to call at 13h00 if you want to check in at 14h00.
For the rest, it was perfect. Nice welcome, and the flat is very well located, with two bath rooms, well equpped kitchen, and close to every famous sites of Barcelona.
Definitely not the experience that you want to make at your stay in Barcelona...
After arriving in Barcelona the check-in in our apartement was planned at 2pm, i already tried to call the agency in the morning but couldn't reach someone and they didn't ring back. We (group of 3 people) decided at 12 pm to get close to our apartement ( to be ready when they allowed us to check-in. After calling them again at 1pm they stated that they are very sorry but they cant give us the apartement without telling us a valid reason.. They now proposed a other apartement with a less good location (the original booked apartement was in the gothic district and the new proposal close to placa de catalunya). But we didn't have another choice and finally we could move in this alternative apartement at 5:30 pm (!!!) which already destroyed all our plans for the day. Due to our late check in and all the complications, we asked for late check out 2pm as a bit of compensation for all this hassle. Again, they promised to check if it is possible and wanted to call us back or sending a mail - never ever got something. And as expected, on check out day nothing was arranged, cleaning stuff went into the apartement and it took us an additional hour of discussing and arguing to do the check out 1,5 hours later. We understand that sometimes plans can change, especially when you rent apartements, but then it needs to be proper and proactiv communicated. We had the impression that they absolutely did not care about us.
We were in a group of 5 people in the apartment and it had the ideal size.
The handover went smoothly and also to the shuttle was booked to place us point.
The apartment was very clean, everything in the kitchen was there and the terrace was really nice with a view of the tops of the Sagrada. The Metro station was not far away and the nearest bakery / cafe 'and small supermarket just around the corner.
A great stay :)
Wir waren in einer Gruppe von 5 Leuten in dem Appartement und dafür hatte es die ideale Größe.
Die Übergabe hat reibungslos geklappt und auch der dazu gebuchte Shuttle war an Ort uns Stelle.
Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, in der Küche war alles da und die Terrasse war super schön mit einem Blick auf die Spitzen der Sagrada. Die Metrostation war nicht weit weg und der nächste Bäcker/ Cafe´ und kleine Supermarkt sind direkt um die Ecke.
Ein toller Aufenthalt :)
Superagradable! It was like being in our own house.A very special trip on a highly recommendable place. We have been my sisters, my mother and my baby to celebrate the 70th birthday of our mother. We decided to get together in Barcelona all because 2 living in Granada, one in France and another in Madrid. The availability of this terrace was wonderful. The rooms, dry cleaning service, kitchen, bathrooms perfect. All super clean and nice. Return with their eyes closed.
Very nice host.
Superagradable! Ha sido como estar en nuestra propia casa.Un viaje muy especial en un lugar totalmente recomendable. Hemos estado mis hermanas, mi madre y yo con mi bebé para celebrar el 70 cumpleaños de nuestra madre. Decidimos juntarnos en Barcelona todas ya que 2 viven en Granada, una en Francia y otras en Madrid. Poder disponer de esa terraza ha sido una maravilla. Las habitaciones , el saón, cocina, baños perfectos. Todo superlimpio y bonito. Volveríamos con los ojos cerrados.
El anfitrión muy agradable.
The apartment is very well located and with a very good supply.
Thank you very much!
El apartamento está muy bien ubicado y con una muy buena dotación.
Muchas gracias!
Apartment was lovely. Terrace beautiful.Lovely spa bath and shower and apartment nicely decorated. The only drawback was that the bedrooms did not have windows opening to outside-just to utility area. This meant it was stuffy and dark.Also it would have been good if there had been some basics such as dishwasher tablets and washing powder as annoying having to buy everything for a 4 night stay.
Stay: 23-04.26.2015
Super WE in Barca with the perfect accommodation for people who really wolen participate in life. Prima accessible öffentlchen Verkehsrmitteln from the airport.
The apartment is perfectly cut for a couple and a bedroom facing the courtyard is also night's sleep despite central city location guarantees.
Handover by Wimdu worked out fine. A clear case for the recommendation.
We love to come back and say thank you again.
LG from the Baltic coast Sabine and Bernd :-)
Aufenthalt: 23.-26.04.2015
Super WE in Barca mit der perfekten Unterkunft für Menschen, die wirklich am Leben teilhaben wolen. Prima mit öffentlchen Verkehsrmitteln ab Flughafen erreichbar.
Die Wohnung ist für ein Pärchen optimal geschnitten und mit einem Schlafzimmer zum Innenhof ist auch Nachtruhe trotz zentraler Citylage garantiert.
Übergabe durch WIMDU hat prima geklappt. Ein klarer Fall zur Weiterempfehlung.
Wir kommen gerne wieder und sagen nochmal Dankeschön.
LG von der Ostseeküste Sabine und Bernd :-)
Just everything was fine, clarified the situation and misunderstood everything was great. Thank you very much to Maria Stay Barcelona Apartment for its management and professionalism to solve the unexpected.
Simplemente todo fue bien, aclarada la situación y el mal entendido todo fue genial. Muchas gracias a Maria de Stay Barcelona Apartment por su gestión y su profesionalidad al resolver los imprevistos.
The apartment itself is just amazing. It is just a 15 min walk from Catalunya where you can access the airport shuttle very easily. The metro station is just a 5 min walk from the apartment. I really appreciate the hospitality and the warmth we received from the host when we arrived. They were very helpful and patient in answering all our questions and helped us get acquainted to the place. We really felt at home. The national museum of Catalunya and the magical fountain is at a walkable distance. Many restaurants and supermarkets are available in the vicinity. It was worth the stay. More utensils in the kitchen might have helped additionally..
Overall, it was a very good experience.
The apartment is nice and is very well located
It lacks a bit of crockery for 6 people ....
I highly recommend it for a family or a stay with friends
Please note the room with the bathroom is next road so there was some noise ...
Excellent stay
A remake
L appartement est sympa et est très bien situé
Il manque un peu de vaisselle pour 6 personnes....
Je le conseille vivement pour une famille ou un séjour entre amis
Attention la chambre avec la salle de bain est coté route donc il y a un peu de bruit...
Excellent séjour
A refaire

"Our hope is that President Obama will meet journalists working for the alternative media, not just to cover his visit, but to start a dialogue," said Elaine Díaz Rodríguez, director of Periodismo de Barrio (Neighborhood Journalism) a website focusing on climate change and the impact of natural disasters on local communities. Díaz, who last year became the first Cuban journalist to receive a Nieman fellowship at Harvard University, said such an encounter with Obama would validate journalism in the island nation. "It won't resolve our problems, but it will boost our legitimacy and reduce our vulnerabilities," she told CPJ on the phone from Havana.

Wow, thanks for the article. I'm still going to keep all my mixed-and-matched woodenware though! I'll keep more of an eye on what I buy.
I use all Mann Lake wooden ware and have from the start and plan on keeping it that way especially after reading about how each manufacturer is different.

Thanks for posting.
I didn't have enough things to apply my OCD nature to!
I enjoyed reading that article when it came out. The author really put a lot of effort into his research. There are folks that will be able to put it to good use.
Personally, my yards could be considered mutts when it comes to wooden ware. Almost every box I have has a different pedigree. Some are name-brand-new. Many appear to be home-made and the rest could come from any number of manufacturers (I recently rehabbed an old deep with an A.I. Root imprint all around the inside of the box.) Some had hand-written notes from the 1950s on them. They all work. The bees do their thing. On occasion, I run into a couple of mismatched boxes with bridge comb holding them together, but I have that happen with colonies that use boxes from the same manufacturer as well.

After just going down to the chart and looking at the color codes there are some manufactures that do not even work with their own gear. I make my most of my own stuff that I did not get second hand. Last year tried my hand at frames of different sizes, just afraid to take my ruler to any 2 of anything.
Why do we fall, sir? So that we might learn to pick ourselves up Alfred Pennyworth Batman Begins (2005)
Um, Jim, I think mbeck was making a joke!
I am frequently confused!
I was disappointed that Miller's boxes weren't part of this study...
Trying to think inside the box...
Beekeeping has become more of a science I suppose. Bee space down to a 1/16" difference. I have that much difference in frame warpage in my langs. The bees don't care, so I'm guessing it's the beekeepers comfort level these specs are designed for.
My TBH (being allowed to do their thing) is doing tremendously. Much better than the Langs and all started the same time.
An indepth study for sure.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
And now I need to get back to the "line-up" of projects waiting for me! Thanks for the inspiration on the challenge, DH even noticed the Schwarz/Rot/Gold colours on his mug rug!
Hey, who wants to make curtains? Or knit a scarf and toque (hat for those of you not familiar with the term) set?
The more the merrier.
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
Patticake - lovely fresh colours, looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.
Thimblebug - you've done a great job combining the Canadian and German themes. Beer had to come into it sooner or later! My husband and son are great fans of German wheat beers.
Meanwhile... nearly finished the daffodil, then I'm going to make a wall hanging to match the quilt before I make the next block. I'm on a bit of a sewing marathon here.
Good for you Muv. Looking forward to seeing more progress pics. I'm almost finished my centre maple leaf. I will wash it and hope the pencil lines come out but I may just add white cross stitching to the outer sides anyway so my centre is not off-white while the rest of my blocks are white. I am winging it, as you can tell. Adding a cross stitch centre to a fabric quilt is definitely new to me and I hope it works.
Seeing progress others have made is keeping me motivated. Thanks all.
QuiltE, I did make those coasters awhile back too, but don't really care for them. It always feels like something is "stuck" onto my glass
My friend, who is not a member of this board, nor a quilter, has joined our challenge. She is making herself a pair of Canada Day shorts. Not sure if I'll be able to convince her to allow me to post a photo ever but it's cool that she is playing along.
I am ordering the Oh Canada moose fabric plus several others in the line today. I save $2.50 per meter by pre-ordering and they don't charge the credit card until the items fully ship so it is a win-win. May have to issue another patriotic challenge next year to make sure i use it.
I've been wanting to do a lap quilt for the Canadian branch of Quilts of Valour, probably using that gorgeous Oh Canada line of Northcott fabrics ... still in the "I have an idea" stage!!
Liz / Calgary
I have done my exercises for rehab and spent the rest of the morning reading all these great ideas. I took a little trip to my favourite quilt store in Campbellford, ON and bought my fabrics for what I hope is an unique idea. Because we boat on the St. Lawrence and are moving the boat to the Thousand Islands. My design will incorporate both Canada and the US in addition to the making of my Underground Railroad Quilt. Must dash so I can get it started. Will post pics by tonight.

From the top are views of the UTSA campuses: 1604 Campus,
Downtown Campus, Institute of Texan Cultures
Master plan Web site provides process details
By David Gabler
Assistant Vice President for Communications
(Feb. 27, 2008)--The UTSA Campus Master Plan Web site was launched this week to provide regular updates on the planning process, access to documents and opportunities for input. The master plan will provide direction for the physical development of UTSA in order to best serve students, faculty, staff and community stakeholders. Planning will be driven by academic priorities and support the goals of the university as its physical development progresses.

"Success is a direction, not a place, and UTSA's master plan is an integral part of this university's direction," said UTSA President Ricardo Romo. "It reflects the values, goals and priorities of an institution that is becoming a premier public research university. As the city's only public, comprehensive university, UTSA's future direction must not only reflect the values, aspirations and traditions of the university community, it must also reflect the expectations and needs of the surrounding community and region."
The master planning process will include input from UTSA students, faculty, staff and alumni through interviews, meetings and workshops. Neighboring communities of the campuses will be engaged, and open houses will be held at milestones in the process to report progress and gather feedback.
The scope of the plan due for completion in early 2009 will be broad, addressing all facets of the Downtown Campus, the 1604 Campus and the Institute of Texan Cultures. It will look at how UTSA uses its land, the arrangement and scale of buildings, and the nature and function of the landscape. Also, it will set the context for physical changes on campus to realize the university's research, teaching, residential, athletics and recreational priorities.
The plan also will respond to the unique settings of the campuses and the character of surrounding neighborhoods. Planning principles in the plan will provide a basis for future development decisions as the institution implements its strategic plan, "A Shared Vision: UTSA 2016."
Following a national search, Barnes Gromatzky Kosarek Architects of Austin, Texas, was selected to prepare the master plan. The team includes Michael Dennis & Associates of Boston, whose principal is a nationally recognized scholar, author and practitioner of university campus design and planning. The firms recently prepared a master plan for Texas A&M University. Both firms have won numerous awards for their projects.

I survived Net+ and Sec+ and maybe you can too!
I've noticed a lot of n00bs like myself come looking for their first step. Having, so recently taken mine, I suspect I'm in a place where I can offer a little guidance.
I'm making a couple of assumptions:
1) You're after knowledge, not just pieces of paper to get you past the clueless lady in HR.
2) You're willing to put in a little extra time to make sure you truly grok the information.
So, here goes.
Everyone has their own way of preparing for certifications, but for those who've never really had to test before I offer some of my own general techniques.
#1 Use multiple sources.
If you approach it critically, it breaks you out of the eyes glazed over rote memorization trap. Espcially when studying for Security+ I came across contradictions in the details "Bluejacking is more serious than bluesnarfing" vs. "Bluesnarfing is more serious than bluejacking." This leads to general bit of advice #2.
#2 Learn the facts and best practices, but recognize you assign value based on your own inclination and experience.
Seeing the disagreements between the professionals in the small stuff gave me the foothold I needed to start forming my own opinions. I'm a lot better at maintaining facts that support my own opinions – this helps. The study guides are not sacred texts. Part of the benefit of using multiple sources is seeing where disagreement happens within the field.
#3 Find ways to play with the information.
If you ever start to see the text of a book as "Blah blah blah blah blah," then you need take a break. If it still looks like that, after you get back, you've built some kind of wall. The trick to getting past walls is to find creative ways to trick yourself into wanting to get to the other side.
Example: Sure you want to be the pentester of l33t d00m, but your inner-self is tired of reading about disaster recovery planning. Grab your SO or a friend and tell them you'd like to play a game, and they get to be God. See! They've already been tricked into helping you. Now you tell them that you have a company, and you'd like them to smite it, one disaster at a time. As they come up with new and interesting ways to destroy the business, you figure out ways to keep things going, or get them back up and running.
Now, I'm sure anyone actually trying to use this is going to want to know the boring stuff, like what books/training I used to pass the tests. And I'll throw up a few reviews covering that later.

In my 20s, I was living life to the fullest, when one night I woke up with unbearable pain that left me unable to even move my legs. I was referred to a rheumatologist and diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). At 25, I thought this meant my life was over. Most of all, I was terrified that I would have to give up doing the one thing I loved the most: cooking.

Virginia State Police still working to identify victims of I-77 crash
Carroll County, Va. - Virginia State Police say they are still in the process of confirming the identities of the three deceased individuals from Sunday's multi-vehicle crash in Carroll County, Va., on I-77.
They tell us the southbound lanes of I-77 were re-opened to through traffic by 11:25 p.m. Sunday. The crashes remain under investigation.
Virginia State Poilce Spokeswoman, Corrine Geller, provided this recap of the incident to our newsroom Monday morning:
Virginia State Police are still in the process of investigating a series of chain-reaction crashes that occurred Sunday afternoon (March 31, 2013) in the southbound lanes of Interstate 77 at the 6 mile marker in Carroll County, Va. - six miles north of the Virginia-North Carolina border. As of 7 p.m. Sunday, all northbound lanes of I-77 were open to through traffic.
The first calls to 911 began coming in at approximately 1:15 p.m. Sunday. State police have determined there were a total of 17 separate traffic crashes involving 95 vehicles within a mile span of the 6 mile marker. All occurred in the southbound lanes of I-77 towards the base of Fancy Gap Mountain. At the "epicenter" of the crashes, was a 6-8 vehicle crash in which the vehicles caught fire.
There are three confirmed fatalities as a result of the crashes. Approximately 25 other individuals were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment of injuries ranging from serious to minor.
Since 5:47 a.m. Sunday, overhead message boards along I-77 had been advising motorists to slow their speed due to severe fog through the Fancy Gap Mountain area. The main cause of the crashes were motorists traveling too fast for conditions.
Carroll County public school buses were used to transport motorists - not injured in the crashes but their vehicles were too damaged to drive away - to nearby hotels and other locations for shelter overnight.

I'm looking foe a 24-hr, baseball internet radio site.
I don't want to join SIRUS/XM. I also tried a website affiliated with Jo-Games that served (and I'm assuming) as a partner site or bandwidth distributor for the baseball site. That site was mainly a gaming site which really seemed suspicious.
Any good 24 hour radio baseball-centric websites to listen to? I'm interested in a talk show that is centered around MLB's active players and prospects - a contemporary talk-show with a little sabermetric stuff thrown in, that would be awesome.
Thank You

Mango Chutney Duck....
I have a dinner party this coming saturday and I was going to make mango chutney chicken but while at the supermarket I thought I'd be a bit adventurous and bought a whole duck (3kg) to do it instead of chicken.
The original chicken recipe I have says to cut the chicken in small pieces and cover with the mango chutney sauce and then cook in the oven. When it is ready remove half the sauce and put it back in the oven so that the chicken goes nice and crispy.
Now my problem is that all the recipes I have found for mango chutney duck are only for a few pieces of duck so I have no idea how long to cook the duck for and if I should follow the same procedure as the chicken, i.e. cut into small pieces and cover with the mango chutney sauce....
Can someone enlighten me please?

Re: Mango Chutney Duck....
I've never done this, but I wonder if you need to add a step to render out some of the fat, as duck has so much fat that I think it might not go crispy if cooked that way.
You could try steaming it for a while beforehand to render out the fat. Recipes I've seen for crispy duck steam it for 2 hours to get the fat out. That would also mean it was pre-cooked, so you wouldn't need to worry so much about the cooking time in the oven. Or else pre-roast it and pour off the fat before adding the sauce.

Not exactly sure where to put this--but a lot of NFA Stuff is mentioned, and NFA Fanciers May be the most appreciative.
I really wish that I could have a Road Warrior Shotgun--You know, Pistol-Gripped Double Barrel--12 or 20--and with 10" to 12" Barrels.
Well you know, it probably wouldn't take me over a couple hours to do a real neat job of shortening an economy Shotgun; Crowning the Barrels; mounting a new Front Bead; etc.
Yes I know--but I want my Road Warrior to have a Big Front Bead.
Well, I sure wouldn't get much satisfaction from it; having to keep it hidden all the time. The risk of doing Beaucoup time in the Federal Gaol also leaves me unsatisfied.
Legal one? Well yeah, but you gotta have prior permission to take him across state lines--and I bob and weave back and forth between The Nation and Kentucky fairly freely.
How bout one of those "Witness Protection Shotguns"? They're cool--not as cool as a Road Warrior, but cool.
On one of my Favorite Forums, Guys are busily Welding De-Milled Mosin-Nagant Receivers together to obtain a legal "Virgin Receiver" to build a legal 7.62x54R Caliber, Bolt Action Pistol.
Look, at all the excitement about the Rossi Mare's Leg Lever Action.
How about a "Whippet" ?
The term is misused a bit--but technically; it is A Browning Auto 5 with the barrel longer than the magazine tube, by the length of one Shotgun Shell; and the Butt Shortened as far as the Bolt Return Spring inside the Stock will allow.
One day, I had this Epiphany. A Road Warrior Shotgun Pistol would certainly be illegal. An identical Double Barreled Pistol, with Rifled Bores would be perfectly legal.
Lets chamber it for the .45-70. You know the weight of a .45-70 Bullet and a 12 Gauge Shotgun load are close. The velocities would be in the same ball park.
.500 S&W Magnum would also be good. .444 Marlin could work too.
These are for our "12 Gauge" Pistols. Externally they're sized to look like a 12 Gauge. You could even countersink the first 3/4ths of an inch at the muzzle, so he looks authentic, even from the front.
I like the idea of a "20 Gauge" version; chambered for .375 Winchester.
It hits hard. Its loud. It wont be identical--thicker Barrel walls and Torque generated by the Rifling--but close enough for Gubbmint Work.
You know, a "Witness Protection" 3-Shot Pump in .45-70 would be a nice legal toy. Just make sure that you use a "Virgin" Receiver.
How about the Whippet? He's really close to legal length anyway. Use a 16" .45-70 Barrel; and you'd probably be close to 26". If not, add another inch or two onto the Barrel--in this case, far less weight penalty to add front side.
I'm also waiting rather anxiously. If the ATF lets Taurus market that 28 Gauge Pistol.....
A 28 Gauge Road Warrior could be all kinds of Phun on the range, and in the game fields.....
Self defense with the 28 Gauge?
Sure. Load up a hard .50 caliber Ball Load; Second--there will be some room left over--fill as much of this space with as many Plated BB Shot as will fit.Then Buffer the whole shell with some # 7 Skeet Dust.....
So, who will buy some of my new "P"(Pseudo) NFA Weapons.....
Just as soon as my Rich Uncle, who lives at The Poorhouse, passes away and leaves me his Estate.

- The frame is made from kiln dried solid wood.
- Adjustable levelers provide stability on uneven floors.
- Top grain leather, aniline-dyed. Leather will lighten and soften with both use and time and develop a rich patina.
- Leather is a natural product. Variation in color and texture are inherent to each hide; no two pieces are exactly alike.

AOL NY Hosts "Women in Tech" Initiative
Dec 20, 2013
AOL is excited to be one of the first companies to partner with the NY Department of Education for the "Women in Tech" initiative, a new program for female software engineering students. Spearheaded by Rachel Haot, the city's Chief Digital Officer, the program aims to connect female leaders at New York tech companies with middle school and high school girls from the city's 22 pilot computer science schools.
We kicked-off the initiative yesterday, as the AOL NY office hosted a group of 30 from the High School of Telecommunication Arts and Technology in Brooklyn. The field trip included an in-depth tour of the AOL studio and HuffPost Live set, followed by an interactive panel moderated by Susan Lyne, where the girls had an opportunity to hear from several women working across different business sectors of AOL.
We believe that events like the "Women in Tech" program help girls recognize the myriad pathways available in the technology field. Students enjoyed hearing from the panel of strong, trailblazing female tech leaders here at AOL including Huffington Post, while the school reiterated that it's valuable for girls to be able to see themselves in engineering and business roles of the speakers.
Panelists included:
Emily Glatzer- General Manager, Lifestyle Brands
Sammi Leibovitz- Creative Director, AOL.com and Lifestyle
Regina Bienstock- Head of Business Operations, Marketplace by ADTECH
Rebecca Searles- Social Media, HuffPost
Anna Dickson- Photography Director, HuffPost
Alexandra Berke- Engineer, HuffPost

Remembering Pakistan's bad old days of November 2007
November 3, 2007, was a dark day in the history of Pakistan's media. Former military dictator General Pervez Musharraf banned all private news channels, and some entertainment and sports channels, through an "oral order." He said he made the move to stop "irresponsible journalism." Many of the staff in the president's office who dealt with the media were unaware of his decision; intelligence agencies were used to tell the cable operators to pull the channels off air. Media reacted strongly. After 80 days of struggle, jailings, and legal battles, including sedition cases brought against some journalists, the government backed down from its decision and allowed the channels back on air.

Aug. 22 trial date set for man charged in Manhattan Heights rapes, burglaries
EL PASO, Texas - An Aug. 22 trial date has been set for Arturo Valtierra-Payan, the man charged with aggravated sexual assaults and burglaries in the Manhattan Heights area of El Paso in 2013.
In Texas, aggravated sexual assaults are rapes. He will be tried in the 243rd District Court.
The 25-year-old is facing rape and burglary charges for the attack of one woman. In October, he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Valtierra-Payan, also known as Valtierra, was indicted in September on additional charges he faced in connection with aggravated sexual assaults and burglary of habitations in the Manhattan Heights area of El Paso. The new indictments included charges for three aggravated sexual assaults and three burglary of habitation charges. These cases represent three victims.
Valtierra was previously indicted on a burglary of habitation and two counts of aggravated sexual assault charges for the alleged attack of a fourth woman.
He was arrested at about 11 p.m. July 2 in the 7200 block of Alameda. He is being held at the El Paso County Jail Annex with his bond set at $2.1 million.
Police say that there are no other open cases in El Paso against Valtierra at this time.
El Paso police detectives linked Valtierra to a sexual assault case that was reported in the Fort Worth area in September 2012. This link was established through DNA evidence that was recovered in El Paso and entered into the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS).
Fort Worth prosecutors said there are now two sexual assault cases filed against Valtierra in the Fort Worth area with possibly more to come. The two cases are tied to one victim.
Tarrant County district attorneys Betty Arvin and Shelia Wynn have been appointed by Judge Luis Aguilar to prosecute one of Valtierra's sex assault cases here in El Paso.
The Attacks
The new affidavits uncovered by the ABC-7 I-Team in September reveal that Valtierra allegedly burglarized two homes a few blocks away from each other -- in less than an hour -- on the same night in late May.
At the first home, the woman went outside to lock her vehicle door when Valtierra confronted her. She ran inside in her home but Valtierra broke the door in, injuring himself doing it, according to the affidavit.
The woman screamed, waking up her husband and small child who were in the living room.
"The defendant threatened to kill both victims if they did not cooperate," according to the affidavit. "The defendant told the male victim to get on the floor. While on the floor the male victim observed the defendant to have a tattoo on his left outer leg below the knee and the defendant was bleeding from a cut on his right shin area."
Valtierra took money and a cell phone from them and then had the man put a flat screen TV inside their vehicle, which he then took, according to the affidavit. The vehicle was found a few blocks away without the TV.
At the second home, a woman was asleep in her bed when she woke up to find Valtierra standing over her with a knife, according to the affidavit.
"The defendant threatened to kill the victim if she did not cooperate," according to the affidavit.
The affidavit states Valtierra then forced the woman to perform a sex act on him before he raped her. The victim's home alarm went off but Valtierra was able to escape through a rear door as police arrived.
In late June, a woman woke up and Valtierra was standing over her with an ice pick, according to the affidavit. He then allegedly threatened to kill her and her daughters, who were in the same room, if she did not cooperate.
Valtierra then led the woman out of the home and made her perform a sex act on him before he raped her, according to the affidavit. He then took her back to the home and stole her money and jewelry, police said.
Two days later, Valtierra broke in through the front door of a woman's home and punched her. When she took off his bandana during the attack, he allegedly threatened to kill her, then raped her.
The Evidence
El Paso police say they were able to connect Valtierra to the first three crimes due to his DNA profile being linked to DNA found at those crime scenes.
"The probability of selecting an unrelated person at random who could be the source of this DNA profile is approximately 1 in 21.89 sextillion for caucasians, 1 in 164.4 septillion for blacks, and 1 in 338.8 quintillion for Hispanics," according to the affidavit.
The second victim also provided information about characteristics of Valtierra's penis that were verified when he was arrested and a body search warrant was executed.
Previous Crimes
A man named Arturo Valtierra-Payan with the same birth date as the man arrested in El Paso was arrested in Chihuahua in 2009 for carrying an unlicensed weapon, and served two years in Cereso Prison in Chihuahua.
A couple of years before that Valtierra was caught by the Border Patrol twice in 2007 after illegally entering the U.S. and was deported back to Mexico.

Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?

OP go to speedtest.net run the test and then post your speed results here so we can determine if your internet is slow.
geeze...OP don't bother. The point of my earlier post was that anyone used to the speed on the other system is going to consider psn slow. It's perception. Has nothing to do with isp speeds.
For the people complaining...how often do you d/l 7 gigs of data? it takes a while.

Twenty posts telling OP to "...get better net dude." Yes, your internet speed does determine how fast you download things, but you're only going to notice when there is a change in such functionality. He could be running 56k and his argument that some servers run slower than others is perfectly valid.
Not a kid.
Thank you for adding me to your block list (I feel so important)
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
First: Make sure your firmware for your router is updated to the latest.
Second: You need to do a speed test on your connection to see what speed you have coming into your house. (like previously stated)
Third: Look to see if anything else on your network is using bandwidth, if so and not needed, kill it.
Fourth: You just may have slow internet, or PSN has high bandwidth usage.
I downloaded inFAMOUS in probably 3 to 4 hours, on a 24 mbps down connection, with boosts up to 30. and thats with 4 other people connected to the internet also.
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
I actually found a way to speed up downloads, especially for big games like inFamous which is 7 gigs. Just a comparison, before making these changes I tried downloading the game and 2 hours later it was barely at 10-15%. And that's being generous. So I did some searching, tried all the suggestions with no noticable improvement. Even tried port fowarding which provided marginal improvement but not enough to satisfy me.
Then I found an old forum talking about Privoxy, basically you instally this small program on a computer wired to your router and your computer does all the hard work. Your PS3 connects to the internet through the computer and if it's done right, you get much much much improved download speeds. I tried it along with port forwarding and within an hour, the same inFamous game download was up to about 70%. It can downloaded at privoxy.org or you can just do a search for playstation+privoxy and you should be able to find a download link with a step by step tutorial with a on how to set it up. It's really not that hard, just a few simple steps on you computer then your playstation.
The only downfall is that your computer has to be on anytime your PS3 is connected and downloading or if you don't want this set up all the time you have to set it up each time, which after a few times it becomes pretty easy if you know what you're doing. I guess playing online games it does alright connected by itself, but if you're downloadig anything big which would take a while, I would go with this setup.
Anyway, hope this helps.
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
I'm having the exact same problem, I need to wait 10 hours for mine to download.
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
just choose to download in the background and leave your ps3 on when you go out of the room, also its possible your internet speed could be slow
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
My PS3 doesn't take too long to download content overall. It's either your connection or you have too much stuff on your PS3's hard-drive that is slowing it down.
Re: Why does it take forever for everything on the PS3 to download?
running speedtest.net on your computer is going to do NOTHING for the PS3...... because you are not running it on the PS3.... kinda defeats the purpose of seeing what the PS3's download speeds are if you're not using the test on the PS3.....
You cant run speedtest.net because the browser does not have an up-to-date flash player.
The PS3's speed-test is only an estimate and not an accurate representation of the bandwidth.
And this whole notion of NEEDING N-wireless routers is a joke. YOU DONT NEED IT. Unless you have an ISP that delivers higher bandwith that a wireless G router, you'll never see the full benefit of an N router.
I quite literally threw away my N router a few days ago because I simply had no need for it and I paid too much for it. I still have my 10 year old wireless g router that I paid $60 for brand new and my bandwidth is not affected vs 802.11N.
Im paying $80/mo for 40down/20up and im getting on average 35down and 13up, through a Cable modem... not a FTTH serivce, and I live in a dense city with a population of over 1.3million
If you want to understand about how wireless technology works, do some homework, and also do homework on how to properly setup your network. Assuming that because its NEW that its faster, you're just wasting money, especially when you think replacing something is going to make things better. Otherwise, you're be "chasing the speed" which is a waste of time and the only thing you're going to get out of it is frustration.

Do SANS SEC617, Get Free MetaGeek Wi-Spy DBx
A Message & Special Offer from SANS Instructor Josh Wright Regarding Wireless Network Security
A couple months ago I saw some amazing wireless attack demos at Shmoocon that took advantage of weak cryptography, weak authentication, and implementation and design flaws. The lesson I took away from the event was that wireless attacks have changed, but they aren't slowing down. We are seeing more and more tools to exploit wireless technologies, including WiFi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, IEEE 802.15.4, cellular networks, and proprietary systems. If you want to protect your data and wireless networks it is critical that you understand the technology, threats, exploits, and defense techniques for wireless systems. SANS' SEC617: Wireless Ethical Hacking, Penetration Testing, and Defenses (https://www.sans.org/info/71593) will help you gain that understanding. Keep reading if you'd like to learn more about this course and how to get a free MetaGeek Wi-Spy DBx spectrum analyzer ($599 retail value).
As the author of SEC617, I am continuously updating the course. Each update adds coverage of emerging attack tools and new trends, such as the Ubertooth Bluetooth attack hardware and the KillerBee framework for exploiting ZigBee networks. Even WiFi networks, thought to be secure by many organizations, are now known to be susceptible to VeriSign-approved RADIUS servers and a number of client-side exploits. I also cover advanced techniques in SEC617, such as "bridging the airgap" (leveraging remote Windows Vista/7 and OS X compromised clients to exploit internal wireless networks).
Beginning April 19th I'll be teaching SEC617 on vLive!, SANS' live, online training platform. This is one of my favorite teaching methods; students receive all the benefits of a conference event (live instructor, live demos, lab exercises, detailed Q&A), but the course is taught in smaller blocks, giving students more time to digest and process the material. Students also receive recordings of each session that can be replayed to reinforce topics or catch up on a missed session. The class will be meeting two evenings a week over a six week period. You can register at https://www.sans.org/info/71593.
As a special bonus for students in this class, SANS vLive! is giving away a FREE Wi-Spy DBx ($599 retail value) to students who enter promo code WISPY_EH! I am very excited about this offer because MetaGeek's Wi-Spy DBx gives you much-needed visibility into the behavior of the RF spectrum. I use my Wi-Spy DBx for identifying unauthorized transmitters, interfering devices, and any number of attacks against the wireless network. Moreover, it is incredibly useful as a network troubleshooting and WLAN design tool to help you optimize the configuration of AP's at 2.4 and 5 GHz. If you work with wireless networks, you should have a Wi-Spy DBx. Just remember to enter promo code WISPY_EH when you register!
If you or your organization uses wireless technology in any form, you will benefit from SEC617: Wireless Ethical Hacking, Penetration Testing, and Defenses. Join me online starting April 19th and have fun while learning the tools and techniques for assessing, manipulating and exploiting wireless systems.
Questions? Feel free to drop me a note at email@example.com. Thanks!
Josh Wright

Nice one!
Wild Chamomile Essential Oil by Aura Cacia is a great product. Nature's Alchemy products have always been good. On the downside, it doesn't smell like chamomile flowers like I thought it would. Upon research I learned that chamomile oil smells like apples and straw" [yes] so apparently this is normal.
A good floral scent.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.
By Aarika Buck

I've come to really love this oil. It does not have the classic chamomile aroma, but is still very pleasant and soothing. It has a strong floral, almost spicy fragrance. It is a very strong oil so a little bit goes a long way. A couple of drops is all you need. I've used this oil in everything from lotions & salves, to room sprays & candles. It hasn't let me down in any of my applications.
Strong scent, blends well, soothing aroma, works well in multiple applications, does not irritate skin

text: So I decided to graft a couple weeks ago and it was not successful. I made my own wax cups and attached them to the bars. I placed larvae I them and when I turned them over to place in the hive, mots eggs fell down. The one that were still attached where demolished by my bees to make new comb. Next time, (after a couple days) I tried it again in plastic cups and they fell down again. What is wrong? I made queens this year by punching queen cells off cells from my frames. I want to actually graft next year and I want to do it in time. CAn someone help me out or post a link on how to graft. (a detailed one not the concept/idea one) TIA

Multi-Dove award nominee Sarah Masen will perform at the Knickerbocker Theatre on Friday, Nov. 15, at 8 p.m., presenting the second concert in Hope College's Christian Music Series.
A leading contemporary Christian musician, Masen had three top-10 hits from her 1996, self-titled debut album, including the number-one single, "All Fall Down." She also received Dove award nominations for New Artist of the Year and Pop Album of the Year.
Her follow-up 1998 release, "Carry Us Through," included the top-10 hit, "75 Grains of Sand." Her most recent release, "The Dreamlife of Angels," has continued her combination of pop music with an edge.
"I expect the music to fall into the hands of people who are frustrated with the popular outlets of faith and community," Masen said, "and who are longing for lives of integrity and beauty."
"Contemporary Christian Music Magazine" has said that Masen "has been touched by angels." Her visit to Hope College is being co-sponsored by the Hope College Veritas Forum, to be held in January of 2003.
Masen will start her day by leading Hope students in their short chapel service at 10:30 a.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel.
Tickets will be available to the general public for $10 each on Friday-Saturday, Nov. 8-9, and Monday- Friday, Nov. 11-15, at the box office in the theatre lobby of the DeWitt Center, which can be called at (616) 395-7890. Tickets will also be sold at the door, if available.
The Knickerbocker Theater is located at 86 E. 8th St. in downtown Holland.


text: Hey guys: I just bought a used stock trailer from a friend I go to church with. It is a 1988 WW bumper pull with a double axle . The livestock area is 14' x 5' x 6'; total dimensions are about 17' x 7 1/2' x 8'. My questions on this trailer are in regards to the brakes. It appears to have electric trailer brakes, however, the trailer wiring harness connector is just the standard 4 pin. The brakes didn't appear to work when I was stopping the few times I have pulled it so far (Yes, I know they shouldn't work due to the 4 pin connector but this leads to my question). The wires that run to the brake drums appear to lead back to the front of the trailer and appear to be spliced into the current harness. I was wondering if people will connect the electric brakes to the brake light signal to try to achieve non-variable trailer braking as opposed to variable braking from a brake controller? I have no clue and sounds unsafe but where I'm from, I'm sure its been tried. Maybe the brake light signal is enough to apply, say 33% of the trailer brakes and aid some in slowing down? Again no clue if people try this but I was just wondering. I plan to haul goats or horses (2 max) with no trips longer than 15 min and no steep grades so braking isn't a huge deal right now but I would like to get them functional for future endeavors as well as just to keep the brakes active so they stay working properly and for resale purposes. I was also wondering about my truck's brake controller interface, if it even has one. It is a 2005 Silverado 1500 Z71 with the 5.3L, 4.10 gears, and transmission cooler. The gearing and cooler indicate it is intended to be used to tow so I was hoping it had a quick connect under the dash so that I could buy a controller and plug it in and be ready to go...no messy wiring. Anyone got an idea on that? Thanks in advance for any responses. I'll look at the trailer wiring more closely this week in hopes of getting a better idea about how it is wired and why it only has the 4-pin harness and update the thread.

Here's a tip for running a restaurant: every time a diner sits down, one of the waiting staff should plonk a glass of chilled (not iced) filtered tap water on the table. Thus is marked, simply but effectively, the moment when the customer turns from new arrival into guest. It says "we know you are here and we are glad".
Few restaurants do it - they want you to buy Antipodes or Evian at $20 a litre. But at Ile de France the other evening, they went one better, elevating off-handedness to high art.
I was pointed at a table and ignored for more than seven minutes while the two waitresses and the chef had a business meeting - sheets of paper and animated conversation - at the bar. Later, one of the waitresses gave me menus and a wine list but said she would wait for my companion to join me before telling us the specials (and when she did so later, she barged straight into our conversation). The idea that I might want to order something - much less merit a free glass of tap water - seemed not to have occurred to her.
"Do you think it's a cultural thing?" asked Andrew as he sat down a few minutes later. He meant, "do you think it's just because the French are bloody rude?" and he may have a point: the rudest waiter I ever met was in Bordeaux, but I have experienced attentive and courteous service at backstreet cafes in Paris and small-town bistros in the regions.
In fact, the waitress in question became much more attentive as the meal progressed, and I would not be so cynical as to suggest that her attentiveness mounted at the same rate as the bill. She recommended dishes and wine matches, expounded at length on the cuisine and the provenance of ingredients and talked me intelligently through the cheese selection. It was, in short, an elegant recovery after a stuttering start.
Ile de France is the name of the region of the Republic that includes Paris. It seems a reasonable enough moniker for a conventional bistro; the autumn 2012 menu, which was the one on the website in the first few days of spring (go figure) was rich in the classics of French provincial cuisine - terrines and rillettes; entrecote and confit duck; creme brulee and big, smelly cheeses. The new one, which may be up by now, is similarly both standard and exhaustive.
Chef Gilles Papst comes from Alsace, the northeast bit that was for a long time kicked back and forth between France and Germany. So his signature dish is the choucroute - the Alsace-born French version of the German Sauerkraut, a delicate pickled slaw for which Papst imports the cabbage (our local version doesn't do the trick, he says). But rather than sausage or pickled meats, it was topped with free-range pork (scotch fillet, belly and sausages), enlivened with a sauce of wholegrain mustard. Paired with a citrus-laden Alsatian riesling, it was a quite splendid concoction. Our other main selection was a perfectly judged confit duck leg, its skin crisp and parchment dry, and the red and melting flesh sliding easily from the bone. The accompanying potatoes, sensibly roasted in duck fat, completed the picture.
We had earlier passed up a terrine and charcuterie platter in favour of the other two entrees. One was a small dish of baked (shelled) snails and baby mushrooms which was not a happy marriage: visually they were hard to distinguish and the sauce had also erased a taste difference so that only texture told them apart. By contrast, Andrew's little seafood "pot-au-feu" - a bouillabaisse-like dish of mussels, prawns and huge Cloudy Bay clams in a broth of cider and chervil - was a delicious taste of Brittany and very apt to the evening as the rain bucketed down outside.
They've done their best with the huge semi-circular space in what was the old Auckland Electric Power Board HQ, scattering some old sticks of furniture here and there and propping up mounted posters on the windowsills. But it's still a bit chilly and cavernous. If its ambience you're looking for, this is probably not the best French restaurant of its sort in town. But it gives a solid and sometimes spectacularly good account of itself and the almost exclusively French wine list is great. I'll be back for more of that choucroute very soon.
First-rate food in unprepossessing surroundings.

I want to know what happened to Trisha Hopfe?

There has been very little reported. Very odd that this young lady, a mom of two, no one reported her missing, no one saw her since June 1st and she had no phone...what is going on. (Comment partially removed by Pleasanton Weekly Online staff)

First and foremost my heart goes out to the Hopfe family and friends. Although I did not know Trisha, I know her father, Mike. Eric, you may find out more by researching the Marin area newspapers, since that is where she was found. Also, she lived in Hayward, so there might be more news there. Although she was originally from Pleasanton, she has been away quite a while. I too find it strange the no one knew she was missing, and hence never reported it,especially since she has two children. RIP Trisha.
