THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
Four and a half years have flown by since I released sp_whoisactive version 11.11.
It's been a pretty solid and stable release, but a few bug reports and requests have trickled in. I've been thinking about sp_whoisactive v.Next -- a version that will take advantage of some newer SQL Server DMVs and maybe programmability features, but in the meantime I decided to clear out the backlog on the current version.
And so, with that, I present sp_whoisactive version 11.16. Hosted on the brand new home for sp_whoisactive. (Yes, it's a bit minimalist for the moment.)

Thank you Adam, I will update my Version asap. Thanks for your fantastic work.
Great news!
Thanks Adam Machanic for taking your time to build and making it up to date.
The download page has two version 11.16 & 17. Is the 11.17 is the latest one with fixed bug and removed CONCAT function (OR) it only removed of CONCAT function.
You ate the best....
Thank you for this great piece of art Adam :)
Thanks! I use it a lot!
Great to hear about the new update to this already awesome tool! Looking forward to hearing about & using the v.Next version. Thank you! :-)
Huge thanks for creating and maintaining this indispensable tool
Yes, 11.16 had the CONCAT function. I wanted to be clear in the change sequence so I decided to create 11.17 when I backed it out, after I received some reports yesterday. Functionally they're identical but if you have SQL Server instances that use versions older than 2012 you'll want 11.17.
Thanks so much Adam! This tool has made my life so much easier with various MS Dynamics products!
Thank you very much Adam! I started using it the new one.
We all have sql 2005 in our production environments! No need to fake. lol
Great work Adam! So glad to hear you are still working on this!
Great work Adam, thank you. I will update in my environment very soon.
Just echoing all the others in saying thanks for this great procedure.
We are currently using Who Is Active? v11.11 (2012-03-22). For some of our apps we encounter unresolved deadlocks and for such cases we find that our collection job using this
@destination_table VARCHAR(4000)
SET @destination_table = 'ourdb.dbo.ourcollectiontable'
EXEC dbo.sp_WhoIsActive @get_transaction_info = 1, @get_plans = 0,
@find_block_leaders = 1, @DESTINATION_TABLE = @destination_table ;
results in an error mentioning maxrecursion and cannot insert null into one of the columns. Just wondering if you're aware of this and if this is fixed in the latest version.
Thanks again.
Yes, the recursion bug is fixed.
Hey Adam,thanks for a pretty cool tool. I'm currently loading sp_whoisactive to all my SQL boxes at my new job and on one SQL Server 2008 instance the procedure will not load to 'master' DB, but will to individual DBs. I get what appear to be false errors. See below: Can you tell me what could be the problem. Runs well on the other boxes.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_WhoIsActive, Line 530
Incorrect syntax near '.'.
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_WhoIsActive, Line 3940
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'CASE'.
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_WhoIsActive, Line 3978
Hi, Adam:
Do you have the create table statement that creates the destination table with all the columns that the procedure can insert?
@John U:
Those are real errors! What is the compatibility mode of the master database? I'm guessing this was at some point a 2000 server that was upgraded and it's still in 2000 compatibility mode. Turn it up to 2008 and it should fix the problem. If that's not it, let me know.
Nope, that's something the proc generates for you. See:
@Adam: Thanks for the quick response. I also figured it out after I posted the message and looking at the code.
Other things to mention:
- the create table statement depends on the parameters selected, i.e. the columns included depend on the different parameters. For instance, if you choose @format_output = 1 vs @format_output = 0 you get different column types. You might also get more or less columns depending on other fields. The bottom line is that you have careful, because if you change any parameters, you may have to regenerate the create table statement.
- the order of the columns in the @output_column_list matters, they have to match the order in the table otherwise it doesn't work. Found out this the hard way.
Anyway, thank you so much for this code!
Yes, that is precisely why the stored proc scripts its own output table. So that you can collect what YOU want, the way YOU want to collect it, and it can be totally different from whatever work I'm doing, or even whatever work some other DBA you're working with is doing on the exact same server. Ultimate flexibility :-)
Wow! You are correct, it was an old 2000 box.
Thank you Adam
Thanks for the update!
Could you add context_info column?
Thanks again
Looking forward to the next version.
Is it possible to get Host IP instead of Host Name?
@Alain and @Evans
Yes on both. Added to the backlog.
Hi, Adam!
I use your sp. It is a very useful procedure.
I need you to help me. I need to save procedure's work results into a table. I want to use SQL Server Agent job but if I use @destination_table = 'DBName.dbo.TableName' I recieve error message. What do I need to do else?
Thank you for your help.
I understood my misstake. At first I need to create a table
Thank you for helping me track down some problems on my 2008R2 server. sp_whoisactive is the most useful SQL Server tool I have. Thank you!
I have noticed some queries get stuck and never finish, usually when there is a problem on the user's computer. sp_whoisactive can show me these queries and I kill them off and see what is wrong on the workstation.
Is there a way of automatically (logging and) killing of queries that, say, have been running for over 20 minutes?
Please forgive me if this has been asked and answered before.
Glad it's been helpful!
Yes, there are ways to do that, but I wouldn't know where to point you as I don't think there are many generalized solutions for that kind of thing. It's something I would consider to be a "worst practice" - i.e. it would be something I'd only do as a very, very last resort. Much better to fix the application, if at all possible, so that it can keep track of itself.
running your very useful script on a server where the secondary half of an always on availability group is "Not Synchronising / Suspect" throws an error -
Msg 926, Level 14, State 3, Line 38
Database 'blah_AU_PRD' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery. See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
even though there are a bunch of other databases present and synchronised.
(the setup we have is 2 servers where the A node is primary on some db's the B node is primary on others, and they can both failover to each other; this is run on the B node, where the A->B replication has failed, but the B->A is fine)
Interesting. It looks like you're not passing any parameters to the proc. Has someone changed the defaults? I believe it shouldn't try to open a database unless either @get_locks or @get_additional_info are set. (The latter, only in conjunction with @get_task_info = 2.) I'll have to double-check the code for that. Can you confirm that neither of these are turned on?
Thanks for the sane advice. I guess I was being too reckless ;-)
Hi Adam
I think I'm seeing a bug in the latest version...I just ran it and there is a session with a login_time of 09:36 today, but the time taken dd hh:mm:ss.mss is showing as 61 days and the start_time showing as 5th Nov (definitely not true as this query started today).
Running sp_BlitzWho shows it as correct (runSecs 2999). start time 2017-01-06 09:36:22.577
Has anyone else reported this issue?
Hi Mark,
Is Nov 5 the last time you re-started the instance? (You can check the sqlserver_start_time column of sys.dm_os_sys_info.)
What kind of query is it? There are some situations where SQL Server reports startup time in these columns, especially for system queries, but you're the second person who has reported that something looks amiss, so perhaps I need to take a better look.
It looks like sp_BlitzWho is using the same basic columns as sp_whoisactive, though in a different way, so it's tough to say who is right or wrong.
Hi Adam,
I've been using the sp_whoisactive for quite some time and one "feature" I think that is missing is the ability to sort by program_name. Please consider adding this functionality soon?
You can do that today.
EXEC sp_whoisactive @sort_order = '[program_name]'
I just tried your suggestion with the latest version and it still does not sort by program name. Here is my output from the program_name column:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio - Query
ULoad - ULoad (1)
SQLAgent - TSQL JobStep (Job 0xF2810FD6299DBB418EC612F878781A7A : Step 1)
SQLAgent - TSQL JobStep (Job 0x42F7014081D4DA40A4B88165FE2B2BA7 : Step 1)
You're right -- I just checked the code and program_name is not supported. I have no clue why it wouldn't be. Must have been on oversight on my part. I've already implemented it on this end and will have it ready for the next release. In the meantime if you like, feel free to drop me a line (use @help to get my email address) and I'll send you a test version so you can confirm that it works.
Thanks for the great procedure! I use it all the time. If open_tran_count is > 0 and a SPID is sleeping, this usually indicates an unhandled exception on the application side, right? We have an application that will often have an open_tran for days while sleeping.
An exception? Not necessarily, no. A lot of apps, especially Java-based, will connect and start a transaction right away. I'm not sure why; maybe something historical with JDBC. Anyway, in those cases you'll see that same behavior but it's not indicative of a problem.
What you might want to do is try @get_transaction_info = 1. If you see a sleeping session with open transactions and the [tran_log_writes] column reports activity, then that might be a real problem.
@Adam Machanic
Using @get_transaction_info = 1, I get the following in the tran_log_writes column: master: 0 (0 kB),DBNAME_A: 0 (0 kB),DBNAME_B: 0 (0 kB)
This is indeed from a Java application. There appears to be little to no activity. CPU:0 Reads:200 Writes: 0 blocked_session_id: NULL blocked_session_count: 0
Are you saying that it's possible that the app is opening a transaction for no reason, and just waiting to potentially do some querying before committing the transaction? Seems dangerous, but we have seen a lot of interesting things from Java apps in our environment so it wouldn't surprise me!
Yup, that's exactly what I'm saying. And you can see based on that output that it's touched the databases but hasn't written anything -- so it won't cause any blocking. Totally safe to leave sitting around, even though it's maddening that they code that way.
@Adam So I stumbled across your amazing tool, and i'm so glad I did! Such dedication I cant thank you enough.
Thank you for this useful procedure. It helps me to look for bottlenecks of T-SQL queries.
is there any reason this does not capture adhoc queries e.g. when running the query per below:
with cte_getTop10memqrys
SELECT TOP 10 replace(replace(replace(SUBSTRING(qt.TEXT, (qs.statement_start_offset/2)+1,
((CASE qs.statement_end_offset
WHEN -1 THEN DATALENGTH(qt.TEXT)
ELSE qs.statement_end_offset
END - qs.statement_start_offset)/2)+1),char(10),''),char(13),''),char(9),'') as QueryText,
db_name(qt.dbid) databasename,
qs.total_logical_reads, qs.last_logical_reads,
qs.total_logical_writes, qs.last_logical_writes,
qs.total_elapsed_time/1000000 total_elapsed_time_in_S,
qs.last_elapsed_time/1000000 last_elapsed_time_in_S,
FROM sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(qs.sql_handle) qt
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_query_plan(qs.plan_handle) qp
ORDER BY qs.total_logical_reads DESC -- logical reads
-- ORDER BY qs.total_logical_writes DESC -- logical writes
-- ORDER BY qs.total_worker_time DESC -- CPU time
i get a number of adhoc queries which do not appear when running whoisactive. is this because there is no database context
It worked fine on this end. Are you running the most recent version?
You can get it from www.whoisactive.com.

Same here. I'm only monitoring servers but with 16 servers I get probably 20 or more notifications every day telling me one is down but they are in fact never going down.
This seems to have gotten worse in this release but I know it has been a problem for a while now.
They need to improve the code.

It's a common question – how do I get more followers for my business' social media profiles?
More followers means more potential customers to market to, and that can mean more sales for your business. Unfortunately, it can be tough to grow your following. It's even tougher to grow your following in a way that ensures you're reaching real people who can become customers – not bots or uninterested follow-happy social media users who will never become customers.
Pinterest has always been a favorite with food-lovers because you can find easy, everyday recipes to make at home. In fact, food is one of the top categories on Pinterest—with over 15 billion ideas and counting. People also search for and try more food ideas on Pinterest than any other category. Today, we're introducing new features to help you find the recipes you love and get recommendations from people who've tried them.
Facebook is making good on Mark Zuckerberg's promise to build community by improving admin tools for Facebook Groups. Now Group admins can establish up to three questions for people requesting to join their Group to answer. This lets admins screen potential members to ensure they're the right fit for the group and will add constructively to the discussion, not just spam or troll the Group.
It's clear that Instagram is not going to slow down with the updates and new features any time soon. They've been releasing substantial amounts of new features every month for as long as this post has been going.
Compared to most other platforms, which only roll out updates every so often, it's particularly impressive. It could also indicate the ever-increasing value Instagram offers to both users and businesses alike.
A report published Monday sheds light on how Facebook moderates content, providing insight into where it draws a line on violent or threatening posts as the social network faces criticism that it's allowed the platform to become a dangerous tool.
The report from Britain's The Guardian cites "more than 100 internal training manuals, spreadsheets and flowcharts," providing insight into how Facebook chooses which content you will see.
A key example is what comments are deemed "credible violence." For example, Facebook's policies would allow someone to write "let's beat up fat kids" or to describe how to "snap" a woman's neck, but not "someone shoot Trump."
Terrorist's can easily circumvent Facebook's moderators by carefully wording their posts to the social network, leaked documents reveal.
These are five engagement mistakes companies commonly make in their customer relationships. See how you can avoid those mistakes and build engaging customer relationships instead.
Snapchat has introduced a feature that lets users 'create a whole new story'.
Called 'Custom Stories', the latest addition to the app enables users to craft a collection of Stories for a group event by choosing who can view and add their own photos and stories to the Story.
The new feature places Snapchat ahead of the game in its ever-growing battle with Facebook.

Where to Get an Excellent Movie Review
Academic assignments come in all forms, and one of them that may seem to be among the easiest can, in fact, baffle you more than some tasks that are traditionally considered to be harder. On the one hand, when you write a movie review, it isn't that hard to become acquainted with the subject matter because it doesn't take much time. But how exactly are you supposed to write a film review? That is a good question, and if you don't want to learn how to do it, you have only one way out – to place an order with a writing service because it can provide you with custom written example reviews of latest movies for you to have an idea of how they must look like. However, to choose among the services available today may seem more difficult than writing a review on your own as an online professional company that can offer high quality papers for students is not easy to find.
Why You Should Buy a Movie Review from Us
If you ask yourself a question "Who can help me with my review?", stop worrying because we will provide you with an essay of any format and type written in perfect English. We can do this because:
- We work faster than an average writing service because you deal directly with the writer.
- We give you an opportunity to peruse our list of writers and choose the one whom you feel to be best suited for the task.
- We provide you with completely original texts that are checked for any sign of copy/paste or other forms of plagiarism.
Of course, there are many writing services on the Internet, but there is only one that offers the number of features we do. What is most important is that we are not like the majority of agencies working in this field and offering cheap pre-written examples of papers. Usually, writing services hire a team of writers to complete all the orders they receive. We, however, utilize a different approach – we utilize freelance academic writers who simply use the interface of our website to contact clients and come to agreements concerning the parameters for writing orders. Of course, our writing services are not the cheapest ones, but if you need proficient sample essays, you need to be ready to pay a required sum of money. Completing a book or film analysis may seem easier than writing a dissertation, but it still requires a lot of research and efforts to make it perfect.
The Principle of Our Work
- First, the client leaves a detailed description of his order.
- Then, the writers view the order and enter bids, saying how much they want for completion of that particular assignment. All our freelance writers know how to write a movie review, but their prices differ according to their experience level and number of successful orders completed.
- Finally, you examine the bids and information we have on the writers and choose your writer.
As you can see, all we do is provide a virtual space in which customers and writers can meet each other. Writers view the task requirements before they begin completing it. Clients learn everything they want about the potential writers and possibly even read a movie review example. In this manner, they come to understand what is to be expected from a particular freelance author.
As a Result, You Get:
- A high-quality movie review with original insight;
- A plagiarism-free paper;
- A quality paper you did not have to spend valuable time generating.
Freedom for both writers and clients is the main foundation and principle of our service. We consider it important to give our clients an opportunity to choose for themselves how much they are going to spend on our services and which writer they are going to hire. We give everyone exactly what he or she needs – and are proud to do so.

A Spectral Journey - The First Kiss
After a good few minutes of both of them crying with laughter, they finally managed to calm themselves down enough to look themselves straight in each other's eyes. His light blue eyes gazed longingly into her deep brown eyes as though they were connected by a force unseen by themselves. Time seemed to slow to almost nothing as they just stood there, staring at each other, unable to move. Suddenly breaking out of the spell which had captured both of them with a shake of their heads, they rushed forward into a warm, loving embrace. An embrace which both of them had been waiting to enjoy for so very long. They stood there, in the centre of her room, their two squeezed tight against each other in their first embrace.
As they held each other in their embrace, out of the corner of his eye he noticed the sky outside changing from black to light blue. Smiling as he nuzzled into the top of her long black hair, he realized what was happening. He had been in her room hugging with her for so long that it had finally started to become daylight outside. His joy at this everyday occurrence was soon diminished when to his horror, he watched as his hand started to fade away completely in the burgeoning sunlight. Looking towards his beautiful girlfriend who was nuzzled into his chest, he watched as some of her hair and her back started to slowly fade away. And then it hit him like a ton of bricks. The sunlight was returning, so his physical form would soon be waking up which meant that his spectral form would disappear. Realizing that he did not have much time, he moved away from their embrace, just enough so that he could push her chin and face upwards to him in order to do this last act. As the sun`s rays pierced the curtains which covered the rooms windows, the spectral couple finally had their first ever kiss, just as their forms disappeared. Never to appear again.

Our son could read by the time he joined reception class, but this was only because we helped him. We started off by teaching him to read the backs of cereal packets, and gradually progressed to makes of cars (reading as we walked along the street), before moving onto more complicated things like dinosaur names. His teacher was furious with us, but who cares? Children are like sponges, ready to soak up whatever you can teach them, and my heart goes out to those kids who don't get the right kind of support at home or school.
Anyway, if, like us, you're stuck at home today looking at the rain (again) and want to avoid 'I'm boooored' being repeated like a mantra you may like to take a look at these two fabulous free online interactive storybooks from learndirect, which have just been launched by actress Angela Griffin. 'My daughter Tallulah is five and she loves going on the computer,' Angela says. 'So it's a magical thing for her – she can change pictures, match words and do puzzles. It helps to bring reading to life for her, and for me.'

The statistics are shocking – but speaking from the teaching profession we do only care about the children and them achieving their potential – this of course works best when coupled with parental support. I am sure the children who are leaving primary school unable to read or write do so after as much support and help the child can get. any extra work the parent can support with will benefit everyone. There are a lot of fun, interactive websites children can learn from – yet the best is simply talking and sharing reading and writing – making it fun for all!!

As Keir Starmer QC, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), prepared to publish the final version of his guidelines, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said it had received nearly 5,000 responses to the interim policy.
The final guidance will set out in full when helping someone to end their life will result in prosecution and when it will not.
The eight pages of guidelines will be released along with a 45-page summary of responses.
A CPS spokesman said the vast majority of responses were from individual members of the public.
Academics, health workers, politicians and religious groups also contributed their views.
Assisted suicide remains a criminal offence in England and Wales, punishable by up to 14 years in prison, but individual decisions on prosecution are made depending on the circumstances in each case.
An interim policy was published in September and has been in force since.
It made clear that someone acting out of compassion, to help a terminally ill patient with a "clear, settled and informed wish to die" is unlikely to face the courts.
But persuading or pressuring the victim to kill themselves, or benefiting from their death, would encourage prosecution.

It has always seemed the videographer's unofficial mission to contrast modern youth culture with the stoicism of the UK's capital, best seen in his work for Slam City Skates' City of Rats. The London-bred filmmaker again casts a light on the city's skate scene with "Innocence & Experience," which subtly juxtaposes the youth – represented by rippers like Casper Brooker or Blondey McCoy – with established names like Nick Jensen or Lucien Clarke.

North side church honors bus crash victims with fundraiser
Members of Colonial Hills Baptist Church are raising money for a new bus, following last month's deadly crash involving their charter bus on the north side of Indianapolis.
The fundraiser, created by the church's youth group, is also meant to inspire and honor lives lost.
"Chad Phelps was one of my best friends, actually," said youth group member Stephen Davenport.
"They were such good examples to all of us," added member Kylee Leffew.
To share the legacy of their youth leader and be sure his mission lives on, members of the Colonial Hills Baptist Youth Group are raising awareness and raising money, one wristband at a time.
"The generosity from the community and people even from all over the world, just giving in donations, is just such a blessing to all of us," Leffew said.
The orange wristbands include the names of lives lost in a bus accident on Keystone Avenue: parent Tonya Weindorf, Youth Pastor Chad Phelps, his wife Courtney Phelps and their unborn baby.
They were killed July 27 when their charter bus, headed back from church camp in Michigan, flipped near the ramp of I-465.
"To have it on a bracelet is just a reminder that even thought they're gone physically, they're not gone spiritually and that they're always there and it's always just a reminder to be praying for the families," Leffew explained.
Students are trying to raise money for a new church bus, so kids can continue to go to camp and other mission trips. Each wristband is one dollar and are available online.
In just three weeks, they've sold more than 4,000 and raised $5,000.
"We've gotten much more than a dollar per wristband," Davenport said. "I know one friend told me that he sold one wristband to someone and he gave him $100 for the one wristband and said keep the rest as a donation."
Suggested Links
Kids say the fundraiser has encouraged them through this tragedy and kept them focused not on loss of life, but on sharing their faith.
"It's our focus to pick up Chad and Courtney and Mrs. Weindorf and just carry it on," Davenport said.

A big "Amen" for this amenity
Mention the words "homeowner's association" and my muscles, sphincters included, tighten right up.
Something bad is bound to follow, because such groups are generally pretty uptight, notoriously rigid with their rules, and they take matters like what breed your dog is, or what color your shutters are, way too seriously.
So I was pleased to hear that the one I'm now a part of (which shall go nameless) recently consented, informally at least, to letting people use the fenced in tennis courts as a dog park.
It's not the sort of thing your typical homeowner's association does — showing that kind of flexibility — but it came just in time for my new dog Jinjja and me.
Jinjja can't be let off the leash yet. (On top of the fact he might take off and never come back, it's against association rules.)
He's not good enough on the leash to jog alongside me, which isn't going to happen anyway because I don't jog.
Taking him to a dog park isn't yet a possibility, because he refuses to get into my car.
That leaves him with no place to run.
Except for my hallway, which he has taken to using for those energy-filled sprints dogs generally burst into a few times a day. He zips back and forth between front bedroom and back bedroom for about 15 minutes, at least once a day.
So when a neighbor told me that the association had given an informal nod to allowing dogs to use the tennis courts, in a meeting just last week, Jinjja and I were there the next day.
I brought along a tennis ball, and a big handful of training treats, so I'd be able to get him to come back to me. I checked the perimeter for openings, and then unleashed him.
For the next 30 minutes, he trotted around checking the perimeter for himself, determining it was pretty escape proof.
Though fenced, it was clearly the most freedom he — a dog rescued from a South Korean farm where dogs were being raised for their meat — has enjoyed of late, if not ever. And he seemed overwhelmed by it. He ignored me entirely, ignored the tennis ball entirely, even ignored the treats I held up as he trotted by.
He was either entirely focused or entirely unfocused, I'm not sure, but a good hour passed before he ceased running, slowed down and approached me.
Leashed back up for the walk back home, he jerked at the leash less and stayed at my side more than he ever has.
The tennis court surface may not be the most ideal one for a dog park, especially if multiple dogs are playing roughly, but for a quick run, especially a solo one, it works fine.
You might wonder if tennis players are up in arms about this.
Apparently not, and apparently dog owners this particular community far outnumber tennis players, if there even are any of those.
I've only seen the courts occupied once in the nearly five months since I moved in — and there is no reason they can't be shared, assuming dog owners do a good job of cleaning up after their dogs.
As a fan of the game, though I rarely attempt to play it these days, I even support tennis players getting priority, and requiring dogs to exit in the event someone wants to play.
Around here, tennis players are few, and dogs are everywhere. Several residents on my block have multiple dogs. Two of them have five each.
Apparently, dog owners have been pushing the idea for a while — even though they would prefer an actual dog park with grass.
One thing I'm sure of, Jinjja is grateful for it.
Until I get him past his fear of jumping in the car, or he trusts me enough to let me pick him up, we'll be regular users.

Pedaling your dog to better health
I've long felt that that the modern day treadmill is a backwards concept.
Instead of using up electricity, they should be be creating it.
If all the energy being expended in gyms and homes across the country could be harnessed, it would be enough to … well, I have no idea, but it would make more sense than all that treadmills and exercise bicycles use up, especially at gyms where the temperature is set at 68 degrees and 20 televisions, all tuned to a different channel, line the walls.
So, silly as this Japanese-made device might look, it makes some sense.
The Doggy Health Run Pet Owner Exercise Treadmill — aka DoggyMan — doesn't need to be plugged in. A human pedals the bicycle, which in turn powers the treadmill that the dog happily trots along on.
As a result, both human and dog get much needed exercise — much like they would on, say, a walk.
The treadmill — too small to be used with a larger dog — can be placed alongside the exercise bike or in front of it.
"Every dog owner wants their fluffy friend to be in the best of health. But sometimes, it's just too hot or cold to play outdoors, or maybe your canine pal wants to head out a little too late at night," the website Japantrendshop.com explains.
"Well, with the Doggy Health Run Pet Owner Exercise Treadmill, your dog can get all the exercise they need … with a little help from their owner!"
You might want to be fairly certain before you purchase it that your dog will like it, and not run away from it.
It comes with a price tag of $2,082.

Would you let a drone walk your dog?
We report often on dog-related technology here on ohmidog! — both that which is budding and that which has found its way to the marketplace — and a good 90 percent of the time we have nothing positive to say about it.
Including this time.
A drone that walks your dog? No. No. And no.
This is just one man's experiment, but let's hope it doesn't catch on.
Here's the thing about dog-centered technology: It's usually not centered on dogs at all.
Instead, it is aimed at making the lives of dog owners easier. Generally, it is something that relieves dog owners of responsibility, allowing them to both spend less time with their dog and feel less guilty about it.
Like machines that, on a programmed schedule or through remote operation, can dispense a treat to your dog while you're away.
Or a machine that will play fetch with your dog while you're away, or just too tired to go to all that effort.
And all those other contraptions, apps and gizmos that allow you to cut down on face to face time with your dog, thereby eroding the one thing that counts — the bond between the two of you.
Those devices aren't really making it any easier for you to live your life. Your dog, on the other hand, is.
The video above shows Lucy, a golden retriever from Connecticut, being walked by a drone.
Jeff Myers, the mind behind this video, said he wanted to show it could be done — always a dangerous reason to do something, especially when it's the sole reason.
Myers lives in New York City, and he borrowed his mother's dog for the experiment, in which dog is leashed to drone and drone is controlled by an app.
It's just a concept Myers says.
So too, at one point, was dog cloning. Those concepts — good or bad — have a way of turning into business enterprises once the realization that there could be profits kicks in.
This NPR report about the dog walking drone and other technological developments for dogs, concluded, "The future is here and it's pretty darn cute."
Pretty darn cute?
Yeah, right up there with using your car to walk your dog:

Take two dogs and call me in the morning
Call it an "aha" moment for the AHA: The American Heart Association has finally, officially, recognized that dogs are good for the ticker.
Last week, the organization issued a statement saying enough evidence now exists to make that assertion, and it didn't even recommend dogs be taken in moderation, or consulting your doctor first.
Heartening as the news release was, the statement was overdue, or at least a few beats behind the thinking of those of us who already knew, and didn't need studies to tell us, that our dogs are good for the heart, by which I mean the organ and more.
Dog owners are more likely to get exercise. Stroking a dog lowers blood pressure. Stress is handled better by dog owners — even when their dog isn't with them. Studies have proven all those things.
But the mysteries of what dogs do for the heart, and the soul, have only begun to be unraveled. And on top of all the benefits to humans that can be scientifically confirmed and quantified, there's much more dogs do for us — much of it undetectable by microscopes and double-blind studies, and part of me hopes it always will be.
Being humans, we can sometimes get so wrapped in measuring something that it interferes with treasuring that something. We can get so intent on delving into something's complexities that we fail to savor its simplicity.
Dogs, could they speak, would tell us that, and they'd likely advise to look for the simple answer first.
How important, heart-wise, is the simple fact that a dog can give us reason to live, and love? While I am not a medical professional, or even a medical amateur, I think a heart that's engaged and occupied is more likely to keep running smoothly than one sitting empty in the garage, getting dusty.
"Perhaps when one owns a pet one tends to be happier," said Dr. Glenn Levine of Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, who led the committee that wrote the statement. "Pet owners might be more likely to take their medications and eat healthier meals."
Pharmaceuticals and spinach, important as they may be, don't make you happy to be alive, though, and want to continue in that state.
Dogs do.
The AHA isn't saying everyone should go out and adopt a dog to lower their risk of heart disease. The statement emphasizes there's much more involved in keeping your heart healthy, according to an NBC Today report.
"We did not want people to see this article and just go out and adopt or rescue or buy a dog …while they continue to just sit on the couch and smoke cigarettes," said Levine, himself a dog owner.
In one study cited by the committee, researchers signed up 30 people with borderline high blood pressure who were about to adopt dogs from a shelter.
Then they persuaded half of them to wait — in the best interest of the study, if not the dogs.
Those allowed to adopt dogs right away had lower blood pressure two and five months later than those who had not adopted.
And once all the study participants had adopted dogs, systolic blood pressure was found to be lowered in the deferred-adoption group as well.
The study didn't say whether those that adopted had lower blood pressure than those who bought dogs. Nevertheless, and even though I'm not a doctor, that's what I'd prescribe.

Glucose: The key to dogged determination?
A new study confirms the notion that self-control is a limited resource, one that can and does get depleted — in humans and dogs.
And glucose, the study says, is one solution to helping us — whatever our species — stay on task, Miller-McCune magazine reports on its health blog.
The University of Kentucky study, which appears in the latest issue of the journal Psychological Science, says the same mechanism that regulates human self-control also operates in canines.
A research team led by psychologist Holly Miller conducted two experiments with canines, observing how much persistence they exhibited when given a task.
In the first, 13 dogs were separated into pairs based on their training history. One from each pair was cued to sit and stay by its owner for 10 minutes, with the command being repeated as necessary. The other was simply kept in a quiet room for that same amount of time.
Afterward, each dog was given a Tug-a-Jug toy, a clear cylinder containing treats that can be accessed via a hole at one end — if the dog manipulates it properly. Each toy contained half a hot dog, too large to fit through the hole.
The dogs that had exercised self-control by sitting in place for 10 minutes gave up and discarded the toy more quickly than the others.
In a second experiment, 22 dogs repeated the first experiment with an additional component: Half the dogs were given a glucose drink prior to grappling with the toy, and half were given a sugar-free beverage.
"Dogs given a glucose drink persisted in interacting with the toy whether or not they had had to exert self-control prior to the test," the researchers report, adding the glucose apparently replenished the animal's capacity to keep at the task.
Previous research has shown glucose has a similar effect on humans.
"People can control their own behavior," Miller said. "When they fail, it is not because they are terrible or weak; it is because they are depleted … If they want better self-control, they can build it. They can encourage their bodies to store more self-control fuel via exercise."

The scoop on Sadie
Here's the lowdown on America's new top dog, courtesy of the American Kennel Club.
Breed: Scottish Terrier
AKC Name: CH Roundtown Mercedes of Maryscot. (Sadie's father and his littermates were all named for cars.)
Age: 4 years
Residence: Rialto, California
Biggest Wins: "National Champion" at the 2009 AKC/Eukanuba National Championship; Best in Show at both the 2009 Montgomery County Kennel Club and Philadelphia Kennel Club Dog Shows; won the Terrier Group at the 2009 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Seventy-nine Best in Show wins in 2009.
Favorite Pastime: When she's not at home playing in the backyard or snuggling on the couch with her handler, Gabriel Rangel, Sadie loves being at dog shows. She loves the attention, the roar of the crowd and the treats she gets in the ring, the AKC says. When judges look at her, she looks back and makes it clear that she expects to be admired.
Favorite Treat: Sadie loves hot dogs made from organic chicken.
Exercise regimen: A long walk in deep grass in the morning and afternoon workouts on her treadmill
Beauty Regimen: Daily brushing, with a hair trim early in the week; on the morning of a show, she is bathed and blown dry.
Pedigree: Sadie is descended from the 1967 Westminster Kennel Club Best in Show winner Ch. Bardene Bingo. Bingo's handler, Bob Bartos admires Sadie so much that he lets Sadie use Bingo's show lead.
Fetishes: Sadie has a penchant for footwear. If a closet door is left open, Sadie helps herself to the lining of Rangel's shoes.
Best friend: A Chihuahua named Tad.
Sleeping habits: In bed with her human family.

All the efforts done to rescue the economy and stabilize the economy were going in waste because the real estate values were not stabilizing. The real estate values suffered because of the home abandonment. Once the people are stopped from abandoning their homes the problem will easily come under control. There are a various number of options given by the obama government to help the families with up sider homes. Millions of homeowners can now look forward to a legal way out of the home mortgage mess they have got into due to the economic downturn.
The obama home mortgage refinance is here to help the thousands of Americans that have lost their life savings in the form of their home equity. The home mortgage refinance of 2013 will prove to be the right answer for the homeowners who have been leading a responsible way of life. The latest plan of the obama administration aims to loosen up the mortgage lending rules further in order to provide the necessary help to all financially distressed families. The low income families that have been unable to get help from any quarter can now rely on this plan to save their homes and family lives from financial ruin.
Obama Home Mortgage Refinance Plan 2013 Will Help Underwater Homeowners With Home Mortgage Refinance http://www.mortgage-
The obama mortgage refinance plan 2013 will help thousands of the underwater homeowners qualify for a home mortgage refinance. The obama broad based refinance plan will provide the necessary help to all the responsible homeowners to save at least 3000 dollars every year. The obama government counts on the savings to help the families purchase their domestic needs. This will directly result in more consumers spending for the daily products and contribute directly to the economy. The plan is a god sent boon to the financially distressed family that has been up to date with their monthly mortgage payments.
Some of the benefits of the plan to the United States are that it will not add to the staggering financial deficit of the country. It aims to help the citizens meet their basic requirements for the people caught up in the problems of paying their monthly mortgage payments. The new plan will streamline the process of giving much needed help to the underwater homeowners.

Othello the Moor is the celebrated General of Venice's armed forces. Virtuous, steadfast and politic, Othello falls in love and impetuously marries Desdemona, a powerful senator's daughter. Iago, an ambitious subordinate, turns mortal enemy when Othello makes Cassio, an untested scholar of war, his new lieutenant. Reason and passion collide as Iago preys on Othello's greatest vulnerability, his love for Desdemona.
In an electrifying return to the Elizabethan tradition of all-male Shakespeare, Quintessence unleashes what promises to be one of the most powerful productions of this tragedy ever seen on the Philadelphia stage.
As Quintessence Theatre Group works to establish a resident repertory ensemble, Quintessence regulars Khris Davis and Josh Carpenter* will lead OTHELLO's ten actor ensemble. Mr. Davis, who was last seen in Anouilh'sAntigone as Haemon, and delighted audiences in The Venetian Twins as Arlecchino, will play the General Othello. Mr. Carpenter who has previously thrilled Quintessence audiences with his chameleon-like transformations from Henry V to The Venetian Twins to the wizened novelist Trigorin in The Seagull will become Shakespeare's greatest villain, Iago. They will be joined by Ross Bennett Hurwitz* who makes his Quintessence and Philadelphia debut as Desdemona.
The ensemble includes Sean Close (Roderigo), Daniel Fredrick (Cassio), Alexander Harvey (Emilia), Matt Lorenz (Brabantio/Gratiano) Tim Rinehart (Duke/Lodovico), Ken Sandberg (Montano) and John Schultz(Bianca).

Three Words
little things - little words, little phrases -
and you're in my mind again.
and that familiar feeling,
of choking and hiding and secrets and lies,
is in my throat once more.
you did this to me.
a thousand years may pass
and one forgets.
but not that - everything but that.
when the colours fade and faces blur,
that comes back to me.
the things you said.
the whispered words that shattered
the resolutions i had made.
three words.
just three words.
and supposedly what i should want
to hear - but no.
not from you. not like this.
not here, not now, not while i'm
still me.
i'm not what you seem to think.
that's not me
that's your fantasy.
the good parts without the bad.
i want someone who loves the bad too
not someone who doesn't see it.
someone who waits. who listens.
but you. you did this.
beg for forgiveness, why don't you?
make amends?
you won't.

Adam talks about his 'identity crisis' after Idol and mixing styles on his album.
By the way, this proves our point several months ago when people were arguing 'Adam should not win american idol because he is going to be controlled by 19 Entertainment!'
Obviously, that does not make one bit of a difference as stated by Adam on this interview (or Daughtry).
Someone even wrote a huge article on 'Why Adam should not win American Idol' right before the finale, maybe someone can find the link.

After averaging nearly a point per game as a defenceman last season and being chosen in the second round of the Western Hockey League bantam draft, Ian Mitchell is obviously a pretty good player who figures prominently in the Brandon Wheat Kings' plans.
But when your team's first-round pick was the draft's first overall selection, it's easy to get a little bit lost in the shuffle.
Mitchell said he's been "a little bit under the radar," while all the hype swirls around top pick Stelio Mattheos in Wheat Kings training camp this week at Westman Place, but he's been content to quietly go about his business as long as those who matter most are noticing.
"I don't have as much pressure coming in as Stelio does, but it's obviously nice to come to a great organization like Brandon," said Mitchell, a 15-year-old from Calahoo, Alta., who was chosen 32nd overall in May's draft. "I think it's gone really well. All the guys really made me feel welcomed here and just the pace of the game is so much higher than I'm used to, so it's really good to kind of get my feet wet and get used to it here in Brandon."
Mitchell had four goals, 17 assists and 26 penalty minutes in 24 Alberta Major Bantam AAA games with Spruce Grove's Parkland Athletic Club Saints last season and has been a solid performer this week.
Mitchell said his main goal at camp is to make a good impression, with the intention of making the Wheat Kings a year from now when he's old enough to play in the WHL. In the meantime, he plans to try out for the St. Albert Raiders Midget AAA team and hopes to make Alberta's entry for the Canada Games in Prince George, B.C.
At 5-foot-10, 157 pounds, Mitchell said he plans to spend the next year working on his physical game.
"I just need to be tougher in the D-zone, make sure I'm not losing guys around the net and boxing people out in front," he said. "I feel like I'm a good offensive player, a good skater and if I can work on some of those things I feel that I can really succeed at this level."
ROOKIE WRAP: Nolan Patrick and Ty Lewis, a pair of picks from the 2013 bantam draft, took over the spotlight on Thursday as Team White completed a sweep of the three rookie camp scrimmages by beating Black 7-6 and 6-4.
The line of Patrick, Lewis and James McIsaac combined for 13 points for Team White in the first game, with Lewis scoring three goals and adding two assists, McIsaac notching two goals and a helper, and Patrick setting up five goals. Mattheos and Brandonite James Shearer also scored for the winners, while Mitchell, Mark Taraschuk, Linden McCorrister, Waylon Petkau, Brad Goethals and Brandon's Tanner Kaspick found the net for Team Black.
In the last scrimmage of rookie camp, White got goals from six players, with Patrick assisting on three of them. Lewis scored again, with fellow Brandonite Bradley Schoonbaert, Kolby Chen, McKenzie Welke and Aaron Kellogg also striking.
Kale Clague had a goal and an assist for Black, which got its other goals from Goethals, Brandonite Duncan Campbell and Luc Alarie.
Lewis's big day came to a premature end, however, as he left the evening scrimmage with an apparent arm injury. A hip injury kept Kaspick on the sidelines for the late session, while Tristen Elder missed all of Thursday's action after being hurt on Wednesday night.
The Wheat Kings made cuts last night, with 50 players set to start main camp today.

May 1: Ever since becoming a Civil Marriage Celebrant [yesidoweddings.com] I've always wanted to conduct a ceremony at one of the more iconic wineries. Today's wedding fit the bill at Clairault. The ceremony was conducted on the lawn but the backdrop of vines and gum trees was just divine.
May 2: It always feels strange the day after a wedding ceremony knowing that there is another new family in the world. While they are celebrating their unity, everyone else returns to their lives. I always return to my life a little bit changed, more reflective, and deeply grateful that I am surrounded by people who love each other so much. The Little Star and I headed to the zoo where we spent a long time watching the mama orangutan and her baby frolic on the lawn. Yet another new family to enrich our world and to be grateful for.
May 3: With the prospect of a grey winter looming, I'm feeling a bit despondent about the state of our backyard. We're living in a rental so it's not possible to plant trees or greenery for the 18 months we have left in Perth. So, we're doing the next best thing and planting some hanging pots and odds and ends to green it up a bit. Boy Wonderful, for some reason, felt it necessary to wear his fluorescent vest while pushing the trolley. Perhaps taking safety consciousness a little too far?
May 4: This is what my new little herb garden looks like hanging outside my desk window…
May 5: Boy Wonderful started his new "career" today at the WACA. I felt such pride watching him walk into the grounds for his first day on the job. Sure it's workplace learning, but that's my boy, on his unswerving quest to dedicate his life to cricket. He's just a 100% total cricketer [facebook.com]!

I think the only way to change the priority is to delete the range and readd them in the order you desire.

The scan settings aren't likely to change very often, but all the same, this could be made a bit more friendly and less intimidating by being just flexible . . .

|NoClassDefFoundError accessing jackrabbit jar from servlet
|Tue, 30 Mar 2010 04:13:34 GMT
Hello, My first attempt at sending this failed b/c I attached a zip file. Sorry if this is a duplicate message for some. I'm getting the above mentioned error when trying to access a repository using jackrabbit-standalone-2.0.0.jar from a servlet. I didn't use the jackrabbit war because I already have a thick client app working and I want to reuse as much code as possible. I just assumed doing this was possible. If I do the exact same thing from a thick client (Swing) window the error does not occur. The problem seems to be related to class loading from a servlet. I have got the same results in Tomcat 5.5 and in the eclipse embedded web server. To test I created a small web application. Since I cannot attach a zip file I will just copy the doPost() method below: protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { Repository repository = new TransientRepository( "repository.xml", //embedded within the war "path/to/home/dir"); Session session = null; try { session = repository.login(); System.out.println("root node identifier: " + session.getRootNode().getIdentifier()); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } finally { session.logout(); } } When I post to this servlet from an html form the exception has 2 parts: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/jcr/Repository java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.jcr.Repository I found a link to a similar issue that may relate to what's happening: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=tree&goto=87658&#page_top The first reply to this query says: "That can happen e.g. if your class is found but it executes a static initialiser (i.e. a public static final assignment) that uses another class that's not exported by the system bundle." I'm not using Equinox or anything other than Eclipse for EE developers. Perhaps it's related to a bundle issue within jackrabbit. Is accessing a repository in this way from a servlet (i.e. using the jackrabbit jar not war) not a supported function, or just not a good idea in general? My goals are to keep the code as simple as possible and minimize the attack surface for troublemakers (i.e. I do not want to expose REST or any other jackrabbit servlet api to an experienced hacker who might recognize what library I am using). I'm handling all user authentication in my app already and only want my java domain objects to make calls to the repository. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer. Comments about the security implications of this approach vs. the jackrabbit war are also most welcome. Rob

Giving positive nonverbal messages can improve your relationship with your child and boost emotional connections in your family. Most children love being hugged and kissed, for example. This warm and caring body language sends the nonverbal message that you want to be close to your child.
Some children with special needs – for example, children with autism spectrum disorder and sensory sensitivities – might find body contact difficult.
On the other hand, negative nonverbal communication – for example, a grumpy tone of voice or a frown – when you're doing something fun together might send the message that you don't really want to be there.
So matching your verbal and nonverbal communication makes your words more effective. For example, a teacher might explain a maths problem using her hands to show size and shape.
But when verbal and nonverbal messages don't match, your child might believe the nonverbal – after all, what you see is what you get. Your child learns a lot about nonverbal communication by watching you. For example, if you approach new people in a relaxed way, your child is more likely to do the same.
Here are some ideas for using body language and tone of voice to send helpful and positive nonverbal messages when you're communicating with your child:
Games and family challenges can be a fun way to develop your understanding of your nonverbal communication as a family.
For example, you could try video-recording a family conversation and then watch it together. See who can spot the nonverbal communication, such as touches, hugs, gestures, eye contact and so on.
Then you could talk about things like whether the body language matches the words. If you see something that you don't like about the way you're communicating – for example, not looking at your child when he's talking – you could try to change this in the future.
Another idea is to try watching a TV show with the sound off and see whether you and your child can work out what's happening.
Or family members could take turns at dinner practising different tones of voice – for example, saying, 'I would like the salad please' in a grumpy tone and then in a gentle tone.
Every day there'll be times when you can guide your child's nonverbal communication. These are called teachable moments.
For example, if your child is standing very close to a friend and the friend looks uncomfortable, or is stepping back, this is a teachable moment. You might gently remind your child to give his friend some space – for example, 'Tobias, let's give Jacob a bit more room by taking a step back. Well done, Jacob's got more space now'.
When you notice your child doing what you've asked – for example, at a friend's party – praise her. For example, 'Nala, I like the way you gave Emile some space to open his presents at the party'.
Nonverbal communication can be handy at times when distance or noise makes it hard to talk. For example, you might give your child a smile and a 'thumbs up' when he gets an award at school or helps a friend in the playground. If you see something you don't like, you might shake your head or give a 'thumbs down'.
If you need to discipline your child, you can use your tone of voice and facial expressions to show her that you're firm and loving. For example, 'Jas, you're being too rough with your friends. Please keep your hands to yourself'.
This can be easier said than done when your child does or says something that's funny but also unacceptable – for example, 'Mummy's a poo-head'. It's tempting to laugh, but your child will be more likely to understand that this behaviour isn't acceptable if your words and your nonverbal signals match up.
So try keeping a straight face and saying something like, 'In our family we speak to each other politely'.

3rd Annual DELREC Casino Night Fundraiser
Delaware Law Related Education Center
Thursday, November 10, 2016 from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM (EST)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
The 3rd Annual DELREC Casino Night Fundraiser to benefit the Delaware Law Related Education Center will take place Thursday, November 10, 2016. The DELREC Casino Night Fundraiser will feature blackjack tables, roulette and craps games, mouth-watering appetizers, an open bar, silent auction, and other opportunities to network and have fun!
Who does the Casino night benefit?
The Casino Night is for the benefit of the Delaware Law Related Education Center (DELREC), a private nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that is a statewide nonprofit consortium of educators, attorneys, judges, law enforcement officers and other community leaders with a mission to enhance the presence of law-related education initiatives in Delaware. Proceeds from 3rd Annual DELREC Casino Night Fundraiser will help support the vital work of the Delaware Law Related Education Center, which helps organize valuable programs such as the statewide mock-trial competition among Delaware's high schools, Law Day, Project Citizen, and the "We the People" program. Last year's event netted nearly $11,000 for DELREC. Our goal is to do even better this year!
How does the Casino Night work?
For our Casino Night event, you donate money (to benefit DELREC) and receive chips to play. Games will include blackjack, craps, and roulette. At the end of the evening, you redeem your chips for raffle tickets. There will be many different types of raffle baskets and you place your raffle tickets in your favorite selections. Raffles will be drawn at the end of the evening.
What if I am not the gambling type?
This is an event with something for everyone. There will be great food, open bar and great company. In addition to gaming, there will be a fabulous silent auction with many items from which to choose and bid on. Raffle tickets for the exclusive raffle baskets can be purchased the night of the event. If you do not know how to play any of the games, our dealers will be more than happy to help explain the rules. Everyone will have a lot of fun, that is guaranteed.
What ticket level should I buy? Can I buy more chips the night of the event?
There are various ticket levels and sponsorships (which include tickets) available for this event. Each ticket gets you access to the casino night, silent auction, and networking reception areas, which will have hors d'oeuvres, desserts, and soft drinks plus $100 in chips to get the evening started. The "Premium" ticket is $75 per person and includes access to the open bar. The "Designated Driver" ticket is $60 and does not include access to the open bar. There is also a "High Roller" ticket for $125 per person, which includes access to the open bar and an additional $500 in chips ($600 total), a great level for those who want to be in the game. We hope to see everyone in the legal and DELREC communities (such as parents, teachers, mock trial coaches) come out to be a part of this special evening. You can purchase more chips the night of the event.
What is the schedule of events for that evening?
Registration will begin at 5:30 p.m. After check-in, you will be able to go to the casino night floor, check out the silent auction items, mingle with the other guests, and grab some food or drinks at the bar. The casino night and silent auction officially begin at 6 p.m. The silent auction will end at approximately 8:45 p.m., and the casino night will end at 9 p.m. The raffle winners will be chosen shortly after the close of the casino night.
What are some of the items you will have up for auction?
We will have several items available for bidding on at the silent auction, including 10 pieces of art from local artist, photographer, and attorney Richard Herrmann. We will also be holding a special live auction for three special items: a Lewes Beach House rental, and two custom Delaware license plates: DE ESQ and LAWYRUP.
Are there ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event?
Participants must be 21 or older to attend.
What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?
There is plenty of parking near the Carriage House entrance.
What can/can't I bring to the event?
You should plan to bring extra cash in case you want additional casino chips to play with or are planning to bid on the silent auction. We will also be able to process credit card transactions for the silent auction items and on sight registration.
What is the dress/attire for the evening?
You cannot go wrong with business casual. If you dress as if you are going to go to a real casino, you will neither be overdressed or underdressed. Most people are coming from work, and many will be wearing business attire or business casual.
Where can I contact the organizer with any questions?
Contact Sam Closic or Pat Quann at (firstname.lastname@example.com).
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
No, all registrants will be on a list at the registration table when you check-in that night.
What is the refund policy?
There are no refunds for this event. However, in the event that you purchase a ticket and cannot attend, the entire ticket price should be tax deductible. Your tax professional will be able to provide you specific advice with regard to your situation.
