Ferry Gliding
1 Attachment(s)
The attached page from Good Old Boat talks about ferry gliding.
It makes sense in open water but will the current really run consistently in among the finger piers?
You can't read the text in the attached page but the picture sort of explains it.
The concept is that if you are in strong current you just put your nose toward the current and adjust your power until you have a sog of 0.
Now you can move sideways, forward or back just by minor adjustments of throttle or helm.
So even with strong current you can move very slowly in perfect control into a slip.
This must be an open water situation where the docks are purely surface setup and the current flows freely. In LIS where I sail I'm pretty sure the current flow every which way depending on what the shore line is doing.
This is a technique that is well established in white water canoeing and the activity is tempered by changes in currents and tucking behind boulders. Yes, it is a tactic that we employ when manuvering to a dock in strong current, as well as backing into a slip when the current is hard set onto the mouth of the slip. When backing by low idle forward and occassional neutral it's easy to have the bow drift off the set an turn you off your destination. You can't afford to drift broadside, so you have to be ready to bail out in forward and re-position. This is very easy to practice and develop your skill by manuvering around a lobster/crab float or mooring ball in strong current. The diagram posted above would likely have minimum current after entering the breakwater with the cut out of the shoreline to the left, but for sure, you would need to "crab" or "ferry" into the entrance to the basin. 'take care and joy, Aythya crew
The finger piers create a lot of turbulence but tend not to cause eddies of any real size so the technique will still work but not as well as in open water. If you have something solid like a bulkhead, it will create a large eddy and this will not work. Your boat will be affected differently depending on its draft(floats only disturb the water's surface).
When used correctly, a steady current can sometimes allow you to maneuver your boat more easily.
I can tell you its a lot easier said than done!
I have used this numerous times to crab sideways into a slip. Having the motors nearly 20ft. apart makes it all that much easier to make adjustments........i2f
I've done it, but only with the current nose on. In the courses I had, we were also shown to use a transit to help pull sideways onto a pontoon (dock). For example, line up a post on the dock with a tree on the shore behind, and keep them in alignment as you slide the boat sideways across the current. That will help you use the throttle to keep the boat perfectly parallel to where you want to go.
I will admit, but a bit of embarrassment, that I think this was called "fairy gliding" until I read this post... :)
Because I have a limited view of the strbrd bow, and practically zero of the port. I find it easiest to back into nearly every situation. I can keep a straigh track foir as long as I wish when backing up. The funny :laugher thing is that when I first bought the boat, the size had me a wee bit intimidated. Immediatley I realized how easy she was to handle in all situations.........i2f
you can also use the wind to go sideways while holding position with the engine.

Heading to Rhode Island for the first time over Memorial Day weekend, and I need some of your good advice.
I'm based in NYC and will have my mother with me (who's in her mid-60s), flying in from Ireland. She's been to New York before so looking to show her some of New England's charm. The plan is to get Boston and Rhode Island in, so we'll have to be selective. She won't forgive me if she doesn't get a walk on the beach, that's the only must do.
Here's the plan as of right now:
Saturday / Sunday - Boston & Cambridge (I've been before so have a good idea of what to do)
Monday - Choice of doing either:
* Block Island
* Martha's Vineyard
* Driving to Provincetown
Tuesday - Newport (Cliff Walk, one of the old mansions, walk around the wharf).
What would you do on Monday, something on my list or should I consider another option?

Heading to Rhode Island for the first time over Memorial Day weekend, and I need some of your good advice.
Report Abuse
Where are you staying all of these days?
Getting to Block Island or the Vineyard or P-town and back to Boston on a holiday will take half the day. Is it worth it for you?
If you can find and afford a night in Newport, it is worth spending 2 full days there. If not, maybe spend that Monday in Wickford (charming small town on the river) and Narragansett, beachy but also with a walkable town and , fewer crowds than the islands.
Or drive south rt 77 in RI, passing clam shacks, wineries, beautiful scenery, backroads, water views
Report Abuse
The plan is to arrive in Sandwich/Barnstable on Sunday night and stay there, allowing an early start on Monday.
I figured a day would be sufficient for any of them, allowing us to get back to Newport in the evening and stay there that night. That would leave Tuesday to wander around Newport itself.
We could always go straight to Newport on Monday morning instead though, do you think there are two days worth of site seeing?
Report Abuse
Why not take the ferry to and from Boston to Provincetown on Monday (has service that day), then drive to Newport?
Report Abuse
I'm suprised you found a place on the Cape for one night of a holiday weekend!
I go to Newport and surrounding areas a couple times per year and can always find something to do. It's easy to go to more than one mansion, shop,eat, see Touro Synagogue and do a walking tour of the colonial buildings in the neighborhood, drive over to Fort Adams, take a pleasure cruise passing nearby islands or to see lighthouses, picnic, etc. There are other places nearby like Bristol a charming small town with Blithewold Gardens and historic house), Green Animals Topiary garden and house (between Bristol and Newport).
Lots of waterfront areas almost anywhere in RI so what else are your site priorities? All of thes epalces will be very busy over the weekend, so factor that in too.
Report Abuse
Not a bad idea, is Provincetown worth visiting / is it similar to other towns closer to Newport?
What a shame I can't take the car on the ferry, would have been great to go from Boston and then continue the journey down from Provincetown!
I'm starting to think it may just be better to spend a day walking the beach on Monday and meandering to Newport, rather than trying to get Block Island / Martha's in.
Report Abuse
@janie, guess I got lucky
I figured it would be busy that weekend so went for Boston first, rather than the other way around (accommodation in Newport drops considerably for Monday night).
What beach in the area would you recommend?
Report Abuse
Believe me, there is no place like Provincetown!
I hadn't realized you'd have brought a car from New York. However, the drive from Boston to Newport is not much different -- maybe even shorter, than that from P-town.
Advise you to drop plans for BI and MV. You'll see plenty of sand and water in P-Town and Newport.
Report Abuse
The islands are great,but IMHO just too difficult and rushed for enjoying a day trip on a holiday weekend.
Yes, Newport rates plummet on that Monday, Even the Hyatt which goes for $400+ on the weekend has upgraded rooms for $179 on Monday!
Report Abuse
Thanks all for the replies, I'm going to skip the islands this time. Still looking for a good beach though?
Report Abuse
Lots of great beaches in South County, RI. Inquire locally. Several beaches in Newport and just over the Portsmouth town line. Horse neck Beach in Westport, MA, between New Bedford and Fall River is excellent, and the back roads between Westport and Tiverton, RI, are beautiful. But you will need a GPS.
Report Abuse
Thanks, GPS isn't an issue. First thing I bought when I moved here!
Report Abuse
Beach for swimming, walking along the shore, or just for the scenery?
There are beaches in and around Newport. One is a about half a mile from the easily accessible end of the Cliff Walk, Parking may a problem unless you're there early . It's not a secluded beach though as it backs up the road.
IMO, the nicest beaches in the area for lounging, swimming and spending the day are in "South County" RI (about 30-45 minutes away--I love the beaches in Charlestown) or at the southern end of scenic rt 77 near Sakonnet (also at least 40 minutes away. If you want great ocean views without necessarily sitting in the sand or making a special trip out of the way, drive along the Ten Mile Drive
Report Abuse
Thanks for the advice. Good walking beach is what I'm looking for. Don't think my mother will want to do much other than stick her toes in the sea.
Report Abuse
Newport has two close-to-town beaches: Easton's (aka First), which makes for a great late afternoon walk, followed by a sunset cocktail at the bar at The Chanler Inn, which is at one end of the beach and at the beginning of the Cliff Walk. It also has a small hands-on aquarium where you can eyeball the local sea creatures. At the other end of Easton's is the Atlantic Beach Club, a restaurant where the outdoor tables are literally in the sand. I had a lovely dinner there last summer; it seemed like I was in the Caribbean! The other beach is Second Beach, which allows a much longer beach hike than Easton's; it's past Easton's and around the corner. My favorite South County beach is East Matunuck State Beach, where you can get in a great stroll while you watch the Block Island ferries go in and out, along with fishing boats and others. You can end up at dinner at the very casual Jim's Dock, a traditional seafood dive with tables right on the marina and channel (provided it's reopened by then, considering the damage it suffered in Hurricane Sandy), or at Matunuck Oyster Bar, a more upscale favorite where the restaurant in directly adjacent to the oyster farm on an ocean inlet. Rhode Island is absolutely stunning, and as Memorial Day is a bit early for the beaches you might get a deal outside of Newport. There are very few chains in South County but plenty of independents. For example, a room at the Ocean Rose Inn across the street from the ocean in Narragansett is $129 that Monday.

The obsession with dummies in some posts is a little bewildering. If you
already have an ordered variable recording trust in government it is hard to
see why you would want to throw away this information and let the resulting
dummies eat up your df. Just include the variable in the regression as it
is. If you absolutely want to, -tabulate, generate- could be helpful. Be
sure to omit one dummy in the regression to dodge the famous dummy trap...

Subject: st: Your opinion on income groups and inflation
Dear Statalisters,
I wonder what you do think about the following issues:
I have a cross-sectional panel data set with a time span of 10 years
(5 complete surveys). The survey does NOT ask for (more or less)
precise income but instead for income groups (e.g. between 3000 and
4000 $). As this does cluster the income quite a bit I was wondering
of how much use it would be to control for the inflation rate (which
was rather low, about 1-2% p.a.)? Still, I tend to control for
inflation since there is a gradual shift from lower income groups to
higher income groups. Would you include the inflation adjustments or
Do I need to treat these income groups as categorical data and
therefore generate dummies for each income category? Do I also need to
control for the highest income group with an additional dummy since it
measures income>=10'000$? This just affects the df quite a bit, I
think. How would you deal with such a variable?
Related to the above question, I wonder how one usually deals with
interval variables. I have a variable measuring the trust/confidence
in the national government on a scale of 0-10 (1-point steps). Again,
as I have learned it, I would have to include a dummy for each trust-
level. Again, losing df is what brings me to ask you again. Do I need
to generate dummies here or not?
Kind regards and many thanks for your consideration,

Thread: Gameday ritual.
Threaded View
Re: Gameday ritual.
That was an interesting war. Britain was distracted by this Frog named Bonaparte. (thankfully, from our point of view) and it made the odds more even.
The Brits kicked ass in Washington (too bad someone doesn't burn it down again now, and with all the politicians present.) The yanks got over-ambitious and tried to invade Canada, where they had their butts soundly rebuffed.
The boys from Blighty had their comeuppance though, in Chesapeake Harbor, and even more so, in New Orleans. (another prime location for 'Urban Renewal')
Bottom line: a draw. GB again demonstrated military skill, but americans announced they would no longer tolerate power plays in the western hemisphere, or having their sailors forcibly "recruited".ENFORCE THE 1ST AMENDMENT WITH THE SECOND, NEVER DISARM

My partner and I had a long drive the day we lobbed into Harrisonburg for a one-nighter before hitting the Skyline Drive the next day and this little place was a real delight to rock up to! The room was terrific, the staff were very pleasant, parking is free and so is breakfast (not full american but they have a waffle maker, muffins, coffee, juices etc.). I wouldn't hesitate in staying here again!

Fog, floats and flooding
We drove to the Ridgeline Drive today but we were fogged out. Boo!
We decided to try again tomorrow.
We headed back to camp and did a few more floats down the river (some phone photos were put on FB already). I love doing that!
Then, very suddenly, the skies just opened up and within less than two minutes the berm behind us was washing through our campsite. All of the camp sights were under water in no time!
I have never seen rain this hard this ...
Wishing Mike was with me!
I drove into Charlottesville today to pick up some things and let me tell you...the view along Skyline Drive was A-MAZ-ING!!! I really wish Mike was with me to see this!
When I got back we decided to do a float down the river behind our camp sight. So much fun!!
Old Rag
... rolling in and it seemed likely to rain. Old Rag is not a great place to be in the rain as wet and slippery rocks would be treacherous. So we quickly ate our lunch and continued on Saddle Trail, down from the summit and past Byrds Nest 1 Shelter and Old Rag Shelter. At Old Rag Shelter, we had a quick bathroom break at the privy and just as we were leaving, it finally started to rain. ...
Little Devil Stairs & Little Stony Man
... were just behind us had been attacked by yellow jackets. Fortunately, Sandy had some hydrocortisone cream in her bag to share with these people to help alleviate their stings. Back at the fire road, we turned right and hiked back to the parking area. We then headed back to camp, but it was still a little early, so Sandy and I headed to Skyline Drive to check out some of the overlooks. We went north and stopped at Rattlesnake ...
Not much to report
... tasty. We got chatting to our super nice waitress Ashley who is studying Elementary Education at the local college. Ashley seemed excited to hear that Leslie was from California and wanted to hear all about the Californian dream, she seemed less impressed about my Britishness. seems weird not to be the center of the conversation (I don't like it). All in all a pretty bad day for me.
Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Thank You, Mr. President
(cross-posted from WNYC's It's A Free Country)
If there are rain puddles in heaven, Christina is jumping in them today. And here on Earth, we place our hands over our hearts, and commit ourselves as Americans to forging a country that is forever worthy of her gentle, happy spirit.
These words, in the final moments of President Obama's address in Tucson, refer to the 9 year-old victim, Christina Taylor Green. Christina's life began on a day of national tragedy, September 11th, 2001, and ended with a national tragedy — spanning a decade that saw rancor, war, and economic crisis, as well as historic elections and moments of nationwide unity, prayer and celebration.
Her life began at the moment of President Bush's peak of popularity, when he stepped beyond his partisan alliances and delivered words to a grieving nation. Now, a decade later, President Obama has stepped up for his turn to console us, calm us, empathize with us and inspire us.
And in his speech, President Obama did what so many Americans from both ends of the political spectrum had reprimanded him for not doing effectively at many points over the past two years: he led us.
If you didn't hear the president's remarks, it's worth taking a few minutes to read them in full. As he describes the hopes a 9 year-old child held for her life and our country, it will be hard not to be moved. Our president is a tremendous storyteller — a strength that we need in a leader as we grope for a national narrative to make sense of these horrible events and to elevate us above the competing storylines, full of accusations and recriminations, that have surfaced over the past few days.
His speech detailed the lives that were taken, providing portraits of the victims of this massacre. He described the civic life in which they were participating by attending the "Congress at Your Corner" event. And he did what he did so successfully in his campaign two years ago: he offered hope — hope that this tragedy could lead to national reflection and could inspire us to become better neighbors and community members, more attentive family members and friends.
He offered a vision of how we could grow as a country in the aftermath of this event. "Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let us use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together," he said.
I'm sure there are many conservatives today grateful for a president who didn't use his speech to call for legislation or to blame right-wing rhetoric. And there are just as many progressives that have missed this narrative skill in recent Washington debates. Most importantly, there are many Americans who will find solace in these remarks, and maybe even purpose.
President Obama did not say we shouldn't learn from these events, and he didn't toss up his hands and suggest nothing could be done. There is room for the national debate over causes and solutions — but he struck the right tone to suggest those lessons wouldn't be quick and obvious, and those conclusions needn't be divided and accusatory. As he said, "We must examine all the facts behind this tragedy. We cannot and will not be passive in the face of such violence. We should be willing to challenge old assumptions in order to lessen the prospects of violence in the future."
I hope the people of Tucson and the families of the victims found as much comfort in the address as I did. I also hope other political leaders take a moment to listen. There is nothing wrong with a vigorous debate about gun laws, mental health and the dangers of violent rhetoric — that debate is important for the very civil society in which the victims were participating on Saturday. But it's just as important to have leaders who can give voice to the unifying emotions we are feeling and need expressed.
President Obama, by the way, is not the only leader who has spoken movingly in recent days. With all the debate about Sarah Palin, you might think hers was the only comment Americans heard. But we also heard Speaker Boehner strike a note celebrating our democracy. We heard John Kerry speak movingly about what our country can accomplish when we work with national purpose. We even heard Roger Ailes of Fox News suggesting his pundits "tone it down."
The president, the Speaker, the Senator from Massachusetts all remind us that there are ways to be patriotic other than war. It is honorable to serve our government. Participating in your community is a national duty. Justice Brandeis's famous observations that "the most important political office is that of private citizen" was echoed by the president early in his speech describing the Tucson citizens who were present on Saturday morning:
These men and women remind us that heroism is found not only on the fields of battle. They remind us that heroism does not require special training or physical strength. Heroism is here, all around us, in the hearts of so many of our fellow citizens, just waiting to be summoned – as it was on Saturday morning.
Thank you, Mr. President. For at least a day, you've guided and strengthened our national discourse. For at least today, you've been the leader we need.

FREE2LUV celebrates uniqueness, fights teen bullying
A new nonprofit called FREE2LUV has been launched by an Alki couple to offer cover to youth getting bullied, both gay and straight, and to encourage individualism in teens pressured by their peers to "blend in".
Tonya and Kym Sandis said they "never call a bully a bully".
"We call it an 'act of bullying,'" Kym explained. "The labeling, and putting people in boxes, is where it all starts. The kid who bullies is often being bullied at home."
Tonya and Kym, a lesbian couple together 26 years, planned their family. They have two daughters, 11 and 13, who they home school.
"Being gay we can relate to the feeling of being different," Kym said. "The way we are raising our children is the message we want to get out there, daring to be who you are. FREE2LUV will bring that to a larger audience."
And while their sexual identity helps them understand the stigma gay teens may go through, Tonya said, "There are a myriad of reasons one might get bullied, including just being different. As a society we promote wanting our kids to be the same. But as a parent we tell them to be themselves. So there is a struggle. It's sad. People are becoming hypercritical, and many kids don't have the skill sets, or strong partnership with theirs peers or teachers.
"Our children have two moms, but to them, who cares?" Tonya said. "Children receive 'messaging' today that identifies how they should be, like Disney characters that identify how a child behaves and should look like. If a child does not fit in that standard, they get picked on. I don't get it. I say 'don't be a sheeple'. Be unique and celebrate it. Gay, straight, black, white, whatever religion. It should really start at home first. But let's face it. The parents are out working, or don't have the dialogue they should have, so school curriculum is crucial, especially K-6."
They are promoting dialogue about bullying, peer pressure and teen suicide in schools and have been invited to speak at Gay-Straight Alliance school groups.
"Now with the whole cyber bullying it is taking it to a whole new level," said Kym. "Someone who might have been bullied by one kid in a classroom of 30 is now bullied on the Internet throughout the world, and can feel helpless, hopeless, alone. There are so many benefits to social media, but also drawbacks, like access to the Internet to figure out how to kill themselves, and other troubling information."
The Sandises acknowledge a bit of irony in their public school activism while home schooling their kids, but explained they are simply promoting tolerance among peers, and they aren't home schooling to make a statement.
"It's a myth that they are not socializing while being home schooled," said Kym of their daughters. "They have cousins they spend time with and they're involved in sports."
"Our 11 year-old is learning French, the piano, and enjoys science," said Tonya. "And our 13 year-old is an extreme dog enthusiast. She even has a dog business called Fancy Paws, with the slogan, 'Big or small I walk them all.' We're all about our kids having the ultimate life."
Like their daughters, Tonya and Kym, too, have been living a charmed life. They moved here last year from Los Angeles where they were in the show business industry, both VP's at Sony BMG, with marketing sales in one of their divisions. They decided to open our own entertainment company as producers and writers, WithOut Ego Media.
They made some celebrity friends and acquaintances along the way, and some have embraced FREE2LUV, pushing the cause on their Facebook pages, giving public service announcements, designing FREE2LUV t-shirts and taking photos in them, tweeting, and doing other promotions Tonya and Kym hope to cultivate further.
"We're a global movement dedicated to spreading love, equal rights, and ending bullying," said Tonya. "We like to hold hands with celebrities who help us get our message out."
Celebrity "ambassadors" include Fran Drescher, Carmen Electra, Tom Arnold, Lisa Kudrow, Tea Leoni, Carson Kressley, young teen singing sensation Gabbie Rae, "The Little Girl with the Big Voice," and Mayim Bialik, who came to fame through the TV series, " Blossom" and now stars as Amy Farrah Fowler in "The Big Bang Theory".
"Mayim is quirky, and has always been herself," said Tonya. "She is all about spreading uniqueness."
Equal Rights Activist Charlene Strong
Gay rights activist, marriage equality advocate, and Seattle Lesbian co-editor Charlene Strong shared some thoughts on bullying with the West Seattle Herald.
"As (Washington State) Human Rights Commissioner I am very aware of the ongoing need for education," she said. "Treating others poorly is nothing new. What is new, relatively speaking, is a more proactive look at what this really means. I do believe that schools don't fully have a handle on what to do and what still needs to happen to protect all students, not only LGBT, but those who just don't feel acceptance."
Strong has a baby girl.
"My daughter is going to be taught to treat others with respect," she said. "Children who bully others are suffering in their own world. It starts with being an example and I believe we are dialing in our parenting when we plop our little ones in front of the TV and they are assaulted with the negative behavior on many reality shows. Parents need to get more involved, and should not expect educators to be the moral compass for their children.
"I'm not sure I was a kid that felt like I fit in," recalled Strong. "I was very tall and much older looking then my peers. I was raised in an environment that did not instill confidence in who I was due to family illnesses, like alcohol and abuse."
She does not recall being bullied by peers. Said Strong, "I wanted to disappear mostly, which may have kept me from being too much of a target."

Date of Stay: April, 2008
Very clean and friendly RV Park. Bathrooms and laundry are spotless. There is one computer available in the laundry room for those who do not have their own laptops. Free Wi-Fi works well anywhere in the park. Restaurants and shopping are within walking distance. If you want to see beautiful sunsets and be close to the ocean this is the place for you.
Date of Stay: November, 2007
If you want to see New Orleans this is the RV park for you. It is safe, secure and absolutely clean and beautiful. Save your gas and parking money and walk to the French Quarter. The amenities are very nice - fitness room, pool, hot tub, laundry, free wi-fi. Staff is friendly and helpful. Even though the park is designed as a motor coach resort all RVs are welcome.
Date of Stay: November, 2007
Compared to KOA campgrounds in Saco, Maine and Gettysburg, PA this park was a bit of a disappointment. Compared to other campgrounds in the Keys it was superior. Setting is nice. Location is great for visiting the Keys. Staff could have been more knowledgeable. There is minimal recycling. Wi-fi is available, but not free.
Date of Stay: November, 2007
This is a clean and quiet park with beautiful landscaping. Staff is friendly and very helpful. We would come back often if we lived on the east coast. We received a fantastic weekend rate - quite a surprise for such a beautiful place. The only negative is that there is no recycling available.
Date of Stay: October, 2007
This park is very clean and nicely landscaped. Sites are large and staff is very helpful. It was a great stop on our tour around the country.

It shouldn't be forgotten the last wsbk round at the brands hatch gp circuit kiyo won both the races on his ten kate honda. So if tom can beat him a bit of a master round here,then for sure sykes can run with anyone. Give him the new kawasaki birdy and watch him fly. 11 agree 0 disagree

Thanks for your reply. I will try the cd solution, but I can confirm
that everything you see there is right. If after my do file doesn't
run, as shown in my previous post, I simply copy every line from the
results window into the command window, and run them each
individually, they all work. In other words, the fs command has no
problem seeing the /prototype/${paper} directory when it is run out of
the command line.
About evaluating the r(files) macro: in this case, I must. There are
five do-files in the /prototype/${paper} directory, to be used in the
foreach loop. If you do
local dofiles r(files)
you get a string of all their names in a single word. I checked with
word count `dofiles'. That, of course, defeats the foreach loop. It's
bizarre, because this single-word string shows the do-file names
neatly delimited with spaces, whereas if you do
local dofiles=r(files)
like I did, the do-file names in that folder look like they're all
strung together as in file1.dofile2.do[...] yet the local `dofiles'
does have five distinct words, one for each do-file, as it should. Try
it with one of your do-file directories to see what I mean. Of course
running the foreach loop directly off the `r(files)' local fixes the
problem, but it's still a strange one, don't you think?
Analogous lines run without a hitch for me from within a do-file:
. do "F:\test.do"
. fs *.dta
1.dta 2.dta
. local files = r(files)
. foreach file of local files {
2. display in smcl as input "`file'"
3. }
. exit
end of do-file
As far as expanding the returned macro and assigning its contents to another
local macro, in order to maintain the compound quotes and spacing properly,
you'll want to type
local files `"`r(files)'"'
instead of
local files `r(files)'
You can see what happens:
. fs *.dta
1.dta 2.dta
. local files `r(files)'
. display in smcl as text "`files'"
. display in smcl as text `"`files'"'
1.dta" "2.dta
. local files `"`r(files)'"'
. display in smcl as text `"`files'"'
"1.dta" "2.dta"
By the way, in my reply, I wrote:
foreach k of local `r(files)' {
do "`k'"
It should have been:
foreach k in `r(files)' {
do "`k'"

CEH certification - need a contact
I hope there is someone that could help me to have some informations about this certification.
Few days ago I registered for a CEH course called iLearn. I already sent 2 emails, but noone answered. I would like to pay the course as soon as possible cause I want to pay it with the budget that I use to keep at the end of the year. In general, how many days they need to answer?
Few months ago I asked something to e-council, but I got a reply from an italian organization that works with the CEH certifications. They started to say that the only "solution" they had was the 5 live trainings and the cost was 4200 EUROs ( isn't it a BIT more than the official cost? )...
ANYWAY I don't need to have informations about the 5 days live training. I would like to have some infos about the iLearn course.
Is there someone that works for the ecouncil here?
Or is there someone that could answer some of my questions?
By example: if i chose the iLearn method, how many months I have to study and prepare the exam? Actually my pproblem is just the time, but I understood that the iLearn course gives u the possibility to study when u have time without any live instructor, right?
do u know if there is an email where the e-council answers to the questions directly?

Hugh Hefner's 7 Step Guide To Being A Ladies' Man
At the time of this writing Hugh Hefner is 82 years old. He has slept with more beautiful women, by their own free will, than any other man in the history of the world. He must be doing something right.
No, having wild crazy sex is not every human beings idea of happiness, nor is it the only means to having a good time. In reality sex is among the lowest forms of pleasure, below love, below following a great cause, and below cultivating our own creative nature.
However, it does not escape me that many readers of this blog are men that wouldn't mind having sex with hundreds of beautiful women throughout their life time. While not everyone can be Hef, there are certain things you can do to be a ladies man – similar to Hef.
Seven Steps To Pimp Like Hef
1. Create Your Own Universe.
"Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream."
~Hugh Hefner
We only have a short amount of time on this world. Both to take pleasure in everything around us, contribute to society, and live out our dreams.
When you set your own rules in life you become a charismatic ruler. Within your own universe you are the law. As far as you're concerned you create your own destiny – you are man!
Besides, if all you do is try to live into someone else's vision of a great life you'll always miss your own great life. You'll never take pleasure in what you have. You'll never be you. However, I think anyone of us here would trade our left sock, at least, to live inside of Hef's dream – am I wrong?
"Follow your own particular dreams. We are handed a life by peers, parents and society, you can do that or follow your own dreams. Life is short, be a dreamer but be a practical person."
~Hugh Hefner
Nothing is more true than this. When we allow our peers, parents and society to dictate who we are, we aren't even a person. We're just a mushed together version of other people's expectations. The lady man's only expectations are the ones he places on himself. He is his own motivator and executor.
2. Aim To Please.
"I have about 100 pairs of pajamas. I like to see people dressed comfortably."
~Hugh Hefner
A real ladies man cares about the comfort and well-being of the people that surround him. This includes taking extra steps to include the physical, emotional and perhaps even spiritual comfort of your ladies.
You can do this by being a good listener, by keeping them in good threads, or by letting them be without judgment and criticism. Of course it's important to establish yourself as the source of their good feelings. That's what keeps them coming back to you!
3. Act Like You're Young, Even If You Aren't.
"In many ways, I'm younger than I was 20 years ago"
~Hugh Hefner
People have an irrational fear of death in many forms, shapes and sizes. More so than being old, acting old can lead people to have an adverse outlook towards you because you are a representative of what's old and decrepit. I personally don't feel this way, I think age can be accompanied with wisdom and experience, which I personally revere highly.
Anyway, if you're feeling young, despite your age, you are making the people around you feel much better. They'll be drawn to your youthful energy and look forward to spending their time with you. You will become the source of all that is youthful, energetic and vital.
4. Take Up Space.
Hugh Hefner's bed is huge and fits a good 7 people – comfortably! Come on, surely you can see the benefit of being able to fit 7 people in your bed, and if you can't, I don't know how you made it this far in the article.
With such a huge bed the possibilities are expansive. You can sleep sideways, diagonally, backwards, forwards, one leg up, one leg hanging off the couch, under the pillows, next to the pillows, on top of the pillows. The only limits are the ones set by your imagination.
The point. When you take up space you establish that you are a powerful force that others can look to for strength and calmness. The Ladies' Man thing to do here would be to share some of this space with the women in your life – of course!
5. Live With Passion.
"I didn't want to repeat my parents' life. I saw in their lives a routine and a lack of dreaming, a lack of the possibilities, a lack of passion. And I didn't want to live without passion."
~Hugh Hefner
Passion is a contagious beast, and if you're living your passion you're leading by example. Hugh always talks about living the dream he had as a young boy. All that he does is for that boy. The magazine's success? He edited it for himself, and in turn it became super popular with everyone that thought like him (which is every man and certain women).
"I remain very much connected to my childhood … I have never been too jaded or too sophisticated — it keeps me alive every day."
~Hugh Hefner
You can live with passion, and it is passion that will make you live. What a great win-win situation. It just shows how being happy and not too serious increases the pleasure that we can extract from our day to day.
6. Break The Boundaries.
"One of the things I've tried to do with my life is redefine the boundaries that I think are very limiting. I'm not suggesting that everybody should have three girlfriends, or necessarily have girlfriends living with them. I think there are many, many options to living your life."
~Hugh Hefner
You aren't going to be the best version of yourself if you don't allow yourself to be unique and original. In fact, you won't be the best at anything, you'll only be a good copy of someone successful, if you're even so lucky.
How many times have we heard of the term 'Think Outside The Box'? It's an expression that means to think differently than you normally would, and/or to think different from mainstream thought. That's what makes one unique, and being different in a good way is what separates the ladies' man from the average chump.
7. Expand Your Brand.
After working on the first edition of Playboy in his kitchen, and selling 50,000 copies off the bat, Hef went on to do great things. You can find everything from clubs, movies, television, radio, internet and every conceivable type of merchandise.
So how does this help you become a ladies man? Well, my curious grasshopper, once you've got a good thing going you can leverage it. This works not only for business but for your luck with women. The truth is dating, relationships, and other 'related activities' are largely based on a principle known as the numbers game.
When playing the numbers game it is important to understand that working and reworking your tactics, as well as tracking the progress, and then reworking again, is the name of the game. Once you're known as a ladies man among some, it's just a matter of the word getting out.
If you like this post please vote for it on StumbleUpon and Digg. I'd appreciate it!
For a complete guide to attracting women, from one of the best seduction artists in the world, I recommend you pick up a copy of Make Her Chase You. Combined with all the bonus material that comes with it you will have much more success with women, guaranteed or your money back!

Joe Louis," an Angus steel that was named grand champion of the show, was bred and raised until sold, at the Stonybrook Ranch. The ranch is owned and operated by Carleton Corbin, who is president of the Oklahoma Angus Breeders Association. The owner of the black steer is Bobby Cooper, who lives on a 300 acre ranch west of Durant. The steer was the first ever fed out by Cooper. It was grand champion steer at Durant last week came to Ada and won grand champion honors and is now enroute to Tulsa to compete in the Magic Empire Livestock Show. Kenneth Pults, FFA member from Earlsboro, showed three animals at the Ada show. His two barrows did not place and his Hereford steer was down in fifth place, but he remains an outstanding farm youth.

Pults said that the Ada show was even better than he had expected, in addition to being better than it had been during the three other years that he has exhibited here. Winners in Steer, Lamb Divisions Of Junior Stock Show British Car Firms Have Difficulties LONDON, March 12.—(IP) A dozen representatives of the 11,-000 sitdown strikers in the Ford automobile factory were appointed today to call on members of parliament for help in settling a minor wage dispute and in preventing the company from going through with its announced de-cisl°n to close the plant March 16 The ministry of labor has taken no action in the Ford case or in that of the Austin com-a,t Birmingham, where 1,-000 strikers were joined today by another 2,000 of the employees. The strike began March 7 among IOO men in the grinding department who demanded a flat minimum wage of 70 cents an ^)li1^n P*ace °f the varying rate of 5< to 70 cents. Bob Rennie, Pauls Valley FFA is the owner of the grand champion barrow at the Ada show this year. He exhibited a Chester White. It was the second time in the nine years of the Ada show that a Chester White barrow won grand champion honors. Rennie not only got congratulations from his fellow competitors, but received telegrams from the folks over at Pauls Valley. He explains that it takes a lot of feeding and care to raise a grand champion barrow, in addition to a lot of powder, razor blades and brushes of various descriptions to make an animal look like a champion at a show. Jack Snfith, manager of the Lazy D Ranch and one of the best cattle judges in this section u?lted States, said that tne Ada show far outclassed any show that has been held in Ada at any previous occasion. His son George fitted two fine calves and one of them was reserve grand champion in the steer class.

Kesselring Admits Shan of Blame Plea Made For Best in Dairy Slock, (are Notional Holstein Official Gives Basis for Best In Dairying Work Stay with purebred dairy cows and take the best of care of them from the start. That was the theme of a vigorous talk Monday night by Glen Householder, extension director for the Holstcin-Fricsian Association of the United States. The Kiwanis club of Ada played host Monday night to dairymen, farm youths with dairy projects, winners at the Southeastern Junior Livestock show which ended today, judges of the show other officials of the state 4-H and FFA organizations. C. H. Hailey, Pontotoc county agent and manager of the show', for the club presented the exhibitors of the three grand champion animals; these boys will receive gold engraved medals from the Kiwanis club later, the medals failing to arrive in time for the Monday night meeting. Dairy Project Here Growing Glen Boley, presiding, outlined the rapid growth of the county project by which dozens of registered dairy breed heifers have been placed with farm club youths, a program which provides for yearly expansion. Mr. Householder first laid a background for his emphasis on selection and feeding care. He outlined the battle for food, made critical by demands of war and postwar conditions, showing that beef and dairy cattle are the two great converters of "feed into food."

By DANIEL De LUCE NUERNBERG, Germany, March 12.—(IP)—Field Marshal Albert Kesselring told the international military tribunal today that he was at least partly responsible for bombing of Warsaw, Rotterdam and Coventry. The militarist, who opposed American troops in Italy and France, testified for Herman Goering, one of 22 Nazis on trial as war criminals. "The bombs on Coventry landed perfectly,** Kesselring said. Sometimes a whole area must be considered as a target.'* He said the British city was a technical and industrial center" and that German planners called it a "Little Essen. * m verY sorry as a soldier for 22 years if the attack on Rotterdam was not *what it should have been," he testified, explaining he had heard the attack was made during armistice negotiations.

He described the Polish capital as a fortress and asserted that "everything possible was done to hit only military targets." of milk in 365 days. or'll5 pounds every tlay, or 13% gallons of milk daily, the national average is shown to be poor, indeed. American dairying is in its infancy, Householder said, continuing that constant studies show that many practices good in pioneer days must go by the board to produce more for each hour of labor, each pound of feed and each dollar of overhead invested (the same holds for beef cattle he explained). Don't Keep Too Many Too many keep too many animals, resulting in the cattle being underfed and so unable to produce as they should. American habit of cutting corners has produced too many crosses of breeds, which enhance production only for the first generation, then fade. The speaker quoted figures showing that purebred animals produce more, but that registered dairy cattle last year paid $25 per head more than the highest type grade animals. So, Householder recommended that youths get purebred cattle to start with, then feed them fully and properly from the start to achieve capacity production, at maturity, of the cows.

MARTIN WASHINGTON, March 12, WPI —Former President Herbert Hoover said today supplies of cereal now available to avert starvation in war-torn countries are 8,000,000 to 9,000,000 tons short of minimum needs. However, he told a news conference. that he believed all but 1.000,000 or 2,000.000 tons of the deficit could be made up through reduced consumption in the United States and other western hemisphere countries. Hoover is honorary chairman of President Truman's emergency committee which has appealed to the United States to cut its use of wheat by 140 per cent and of fats by 20 per cent. He said his committee and the agriculture department will seek to obtain 5,000,000 tons of cereals from Latin American countries— through a combination of redduc-ed consumption and increased export—and savings of 2,000,000 tons of wheat in this country by July I. Hoover said there is need for what he termed a "circuit of helpfulness" involving all western hemisphere countries. A South American countries need coal, oil anda other industrial products. he said, and a program of helpfulness would provide those countries with such things in return for cutting down on consumption of food. —*— - FENIMORE DEFERED UNTIL CURRENT SEMESTER ENDS WOODWARD, Okla., March 12. (ZP)—-Alvin Adams, chairman of Girl Injured And Three Arteried In Highway Affair One girl was taken to a local hospital, three young men arrested after a series of incidents late Saturday night in which two girls reportedly were run into by an automobile. An account as given by the two highway patrolmen who investigated, Haywood Bailey and Harvey Hawkins, was to the effect that three young men in one car chased another car in which were one young man and four girls. They are said to have forced the car off the highway and pinned it to a stop by locking bumpers, then tried to get the girls to join them in their car. Shot At Driver? The other driver had headed across a field toward a farm house to telephone officers and accounts to the officers said one of the three shot at him with a .22 but missed. He# called the patrolmen, who immediately started out on the case. In the meantime, the girls refused to get in the other car, and, the patrolmen's summary says, the three men got in their car, drove a short way down the highway, turned and came back driving into two of the girls, then hurrying on into Ada. Patrolmen Make Arrests The patrolmen got the names of the three from the girls, and Bailey arrested them Sunday morning, placing them in the county jail.

UPI A CIO-United Auto Worker* official blasted today at OPA'* plans for new-car price increases, saying this means "not a bulge in the price line but an explosion." "If OPA." said Donald Montgomery, UAW consumer counsel* "plans to give price increases to the auto industry, then they'll bo dishing them out by the bucket.** Montgomery made these statements to a reporter after OPA announced that higher prices are on the way for Chrysler, Ford and Hudson cars. These companies applied for increases to offset pay boosts granted under tho administration's wage-price formula. Milk. Batter. Gas May Follow Milk, butter and gasoline also are on the list of items on which pressure is being applied to OPA for higher prices. Until the new car prices are announced for the three firms* they and their dealers must continue to sell cars at current ceilings. but they can require an agreement that customers will pay the increase when it is put into effect. An OPA official who asked to remain anonymous estimated that the price hike for manufacturers probably will not exceed three percent (or $45 on a $1,500 model), and he predicted that dealers might be required to absorb part of it. Dealers* prewar profit margins already have been trimmed by OPA to prevent the full amount of earlier increase* from being passed on to the public. "Least Entitled,*9 Charge Montgomery said that "of all industries, the auto industry is least entitled to price increases.** He said OPA apparently waa ignoring a provision of the policy which requires OPA to take into account an industry's prospects for increased production and lower costs. The auto Industry,** Montgomery declared, "is going to have to work hard to make lese than it did In 1936-39.** The stabilization formula requires a level of prices which assures at least 1936-39 profits. An OPA official made the point that the wage-price formula excludes industries operating at temporary low volume from price increases as large as other industries may receive. He said this provision would apply in the case of the auto companies. Refiners Protesting Chrysler. Ford and Hudson are the only firms which have applied for price increases thus far. Meanwhile other possible price boosts nosed into the picture. OPA, flooded arith applications for milk and butter, conferred with agriculture department officials on how to get increased supply and better distribution. And refiners protested to OPA that they should not be expected to absorb any part of a 10-cent a barrel price increase granted to producers of crude oil. If OPA decides they can't it may mean higher prices for petroleum products, such as gasoline and fuel oil.

Reviews of this property
To us it has also pleased us to be in the apartment Cyril !!! A cozy , comfortable, well equipped and with good transport to go anywhere in Paris. We appreciate the kindness of Cyril , who was at all times aware of our needs. Previously we had done get comprehensive information about the apartment location , transport links, close shops and other useful items for our stay. And during the week we have a direct contact with him , allowing great agility in communication. In short , a very pleasant stay for the whole group !!! Cyril thank you very much !!! If we have occasion to return to Paris , it will be a pleasure to stay in your apartment. Hopefully soon !! : D
The apartment was nice. Centrally located. Optimal.
Die Wohnung war schön. Zentral gelegen. Optimal.
The appartement was really charming! We enjoyed our stay greatly, and Cyril is a very kind and helpful renter. Everything was clean and as described.
However the street right next to the rooms is a bit noisy - the windows are incredibly well soundproofed, but when opened it is a bit distracting.
Excellent apartment, beautiful spacious rooms, bathrooms bit outdated. Near metro and near baker. What do you need more?
Prima appartement, mooie ruime kamers, sanitair beetje outdated. Vlak bij metro en vlak bij bakkertje. What do you need more?
We had a great, spacious, well maintained, well connected and with views of the Seine, which is not cheap, thanks for the hospitality and courtesy.
Ci siamo trovati benissimo, appartamento spazioso, ben tenuto, ben collegato e con vista sulla Senna, che non è poco, grazie per l'ospitalità e la cortesia.
The apartment met the expectations we had from the pictures and description on Wimdu. The host was very helpful both in the booking process as well as during our stay . He provided very good information about the area , communication and tips on sightseeing. A great plate to stay in Paris for a family .
I've been with my parents and three children in France and enjoyed our verblijf.metro was close and super market for breakfast to find zorgen.wij MR.Cyril very friendly.I will again with my kids one more time about that unit
Ik ben met mij ouders en 3 kinderen in Frankrijk geweest en heb genoten van onze verblijf.metro was dichtbij en super markt om voor ontbijt te zorgen.wij vinden MR.Cyril heel vriendelijk.Ik wil weer met mijn kinderen nog een keer naar dat appartement
A beautiful apartment where we felt very comfortable. Essentially, it is very clean and Cyril is a very friendly and helpful hosts.
Eine schöne Wohnung, in der wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Im Wesentlichen ist sie sehr sauber und Cyril ein sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber.
We were six people staying in the apartment for 2 nights (2 adults and 4 teenagers). There was plenty of room for us all and the apartment was nice and clean. The old house gives a historical atmosphere. The closeness to a grocery shop and a bakery was also very nice! Cyril was very helpful and friendly. It's very convenient having the owner living in the same building. The only downside was the fact that the old house became quite damp, due to the lack of ventilation, as it rained (a lot). The many stairs may also be a disadvantage, if you are disabled or have a lot of luggage. However, that was not a concern for us and we would very much like to come back.

The Gumi: A tank journal.
So I thought I would post what is shaping to become my first planted Iwagumi. Any comments/ideas would be greatly appreciated!
This is a Mini M sporting some beautiful Aqua Soil Malaya (yes, Malaya :)) Eheim 2213,200W Hydor inline, paintball CO2 and Cal Aqua lilly pipes, and a 27W 10,000k Archaea (thinking of swapping for a 6500k)
The gorgeous seiryu stone was purchased from cookymonster760...and I must say I was impressed on how good they actually looked. I've done many other planted tanks using your "run off mill" LFS stones...but I might never go back.
I'm thinking HC for foreground, some micro sword/blyxa/DHG in front of the main stone on the left, and behind the stone on the right. I don't know whether I should add a larger plant behind the main stone so any help on that would be great.
PS - Sorry for the photo quality...I don't have my good camera on me
i have a feeling that this will be fantastic :)
Looks like a great start... my only question is what is the paper with the lines on it for?
I'm really liking the substrate.
Also TexasCichlid, I saw your 60P...and it turns out we have pretty similar rock scapes :) How is that tank coming along?
I got the canister tubing plumbed up today, and am going to mount my CO2 tank to the wall this afternoon. Was going to fill it last weekend but I cut some of my tubing too short and had to wait for more. I will probably fill the tank Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. DSM has really filled out. Despite the CO2 I'm planning on it being a shrimp tank with some zebra otos.
Sounds awesome! Can't wait to see the updates.
nice rocks! did you buy them or pick them up somewhere?
I picked them up from another user here on the forums. I think he might still have some.
I also have to say nice rocks. Do you have any updates on this?
Coming soon! Planted HC emersed, now waiting on some rotala. once its full I'll add some blyxa too :) Pics coming soon
Been a long time since I have posted here. Tank is "ready"...it never ends does it. Added some blyxa, rotala and porto velho. Today I added fish, finally, 8 harlequin rasboras. Started with two amano's and two ottos about 3 months ago and managed to avoid any algal bloom. Battled some diatoms for about 3 months too, but they have since cleared!
Hope you enjoy!http://s1058.photobucket.com/albums/...psb3573e8b.jpg
It's looking nice.

I don't really have to quit yet, do I?
Mileage: 63.8
January mileage: 509.2
Hours: 5:15
Temperature upon departure: 23
Precipitation: 0"
I veered onto Mendenhall Lake and looked at my watch again. 12:47 p.m. In a perfect world, I would be sitting at my office desk in 13 minutes. In my own skewed world, I didn't really need to be at work before 2, and that was more than an hour away. In the real world, I still had more than 15 miles to ride even if I turned around right there and went straight home, a shower to take, some lunch to eat ...
The studded tires clacked loudly on the ice; in the still air the sound echoed like a symphony of snare drums. I skidded to a scraping stop and looked back with pride at the deep gouges I had scratched into the surface - like skid marks off a muscle car. The traction definitely seemed satisfactory, and I was much more interested in circumnavigating the lake than racing the clock home. But still my watch ticked and still I stood there, undecided even as I acknowledged my first fatal scheduling decision had already been made hours ago, when I refused to stop pedaling north.
But what else can I do with an indefatigable bike day, day 4 of a big push no less, when it came time to go to work? I blame this cruel economy that forces me to sit at a desk to pay for my bikes, and ride my bikes to tolerate sitting at a desk. And I blame this cruel world where a flickering computer screen trumps even the most perfect techie winter singletrack: snow pumped full of rain and frozen to a petrified sheen. It looks so slippery that even the walkers stay away, but a full-suspension mountain bike with studded tires can hop and swerve and motor up hills with quiet determination. The real secret to perfection are thin flakes of hoarfrost sprinkled over the surface, offering unyeilding gritty traction that conjures the do-no-wrong sensation of slickrock in Moab ... if Moab slickrock was white, and cold, and in Alaska.
I broke away from the singletrack after only one run, because secretly my goal today was mileage. Hard to explain true motivations. But the open road was calling me out, taunting me with a blaze of sunlight and the promise of flight - as much as flight can be achieved on a full-suspension mountain bike with studded tires, in the cold, in Alaska.
And even as the ice called me back, my sense of duty called louder. I cut a wide U-turn on the ice and pedaled toward the road, legs still pumping fire and demanding something more ... a century, or singletrack loops, or the crunchy smooth surface of the lake. Anything but cramped beneath a desk, slowly going stiff as they brace for the down side of the week.
Last day of the five-hour push and 63 miles on a work day. I was going to cut back tomorrow, but do I have to?
